“Mikayla is the best! Sultan loves her and he’s always so much more calm after she visits while I’m gone. She even helps refresh his bone broth when it runs low 😆”
“Niki has been so helpful with our dogs. One is elderly and has been watched by her many times. This recent trip was the first time we also left our 4 yr old lab for an extended amount of time. Niki took the time to make sure our lab got exercise and both of our girls were in great spirits on our return. Everything went great!!”
“This is our first time hiring Crystal. Feeding our cats is kind of crazy/complicated. However Crystal did a great job with that and everything else. Sent texts and pics each day. We will definitely hire her in the future.”
“Sarah always does a fantastic job. Its always scary leaving my very senior (and grumpy) kitty in someone else's hands but I know he is well cared for by Sarah. I hope to continue to book with her for all my future trips.”
“My animals loved Sydney! She was great! Sydney was thoughtful enough to check on my outdoor plants and goldfish (which we forgot about) while she was caring for the other animals. I would absolutely use her again.”
“Alanah did an amazing job caring for our little cat Mumble! She’s a great communicator and keeps a watchful eye on our pet’s moods and wellbeing. We loved all the pictures included in the visit, and we’ll continue booking with her because she’s fantastic!❤️”
About: After working for a local pet sitting for several years, I have seen many types of different little pets, from rabbits to birds to hamsters, as well as walked (and gotten all sizes of sloppy kisses) from doggos of all kinds- and I can’t wait to meet your little fur babies and love on them as my own! I focus my attention to positive reinforcement and on going training, and of course, all the updates pet parents can handle! Be prepared to receive many cute and share worthy photos of your precious little ones, in their comfort zone as well as out and about on our walks! And rest assured, all will be taken care of with the utmost of caution and preparedness, to ensure they are happy and safe when you return. I am actually currently looking for a part or full time position, but would love to visit your precious fur babies in the mean time! I believe trust and transparency are of utmost importance! I love to send updates and pictures while pet parents are away, and answer (and ask if needed) any questions as well!
About: Trust with neighbors animals has been put in me since I was 13. I grew up with all sorts of animals and throughout all of high school and more was taking care of animals. I specialize in dogs and cats but also have experience with all sorts of animals. I pay attention to details and will make sure your animal is well cared for and comfortable. I have class a couple hours of the day mon-thur and have a part time job some nights but very flexible and would make sure to figure out a schedule that works for everyone! I always make sure the animal feels as comfortable as possible in their own home. Never have anyone besides me in the house and accommodating the animals needs.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with two sweet pups, Maggie and Milly, and that’s where my passion for pet care began. Over the past four years, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs, each with their own personality and needs. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or older and needs a gentler approach, I bring patience, reliability, and genuine love to every visit. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family! I work from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. with a lunch break around 2 p.m., which gives me flexibility to incorporate pet care throughout the day. I’m happy to adjust my schedule as needed to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. While I’m not able to offer pet sitting in my apartment, I’m more than happy to come to your home to care for your beloved pet. Whether it’s staying overnight or dropping in for walks, playtime, or feeding during the day, I’ll make sure your fur baby feels safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: I have a year of experience working for a pet-sitting company, caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on pets to make sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. I also have experience pet sitting for family members and coworkers, including overnight stays to help pets feel comfortable in their own homes. In addition, I have a family pet who I’ve loved and cared for over the past six years. I treat every pet like family and strive to provide loving, reliable, and attentive care while giving pet parents peace of mind! I work a full time job so I’m available before 7:30am and after 5pm, perfect for walks or overnight stays! Open to weekend boardings mainly overnight stays and regular check ups throughout the day. I have a fenced yard where your pup can safely run, play, and enjoy some fresh air! I currently have no pets in my home, so you won’t have to worry about your pet getting along with other animals. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and cuddle time. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care!
“Faith is great. She really likes our kitties and they really like her. The daily check-ins kept us connected and we could tell all was well. We highly recommend Faith to anyone looking for the best in pet care.”
About: I've never had a dog myself but I love being around them! I've helped take care of dogs in the family for a few years now! I’m a college student looking to earn some extra side money! That being said I don’t have a completely open schedule but definitely willing to work with you!! I am not offering services that include bringing your pet to my home because I am in circumstances that wouldn't make that very beneficial but I will do everything I can to ensure your babies feel loved!
About: I'm the go-to pet-sitter for people whose friends all have pets. I've been dogsitting consistently in single- and multi-pet households since 2014, establishing a personal, trusted rapport with pets and their families. I've worked with pets young and old, engaging in regular exercise, medication administration, and plenty of belly rubs. I've been the proud owner of pets throughout my life, from a lovable German Shepherd to a spunky Yorkie. And I've watched a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages (senior pets are my current niche), from high-energy Brittanys to homebody New Foundlands, mini- and full-sized doodles, Boston terriers, poodle mixes, bully mixes, and cattle mixes. I live in Boise's Winstead Park neighborhood but have worked with clients in Eagle, Meridian, and Barber Valley — just ask! I'm available for low-risk meet-and-greets with your pets. I'm a remote worker with an active lifestyle (rock climbing, circus arts, etc.), so being away at a job doesn't get in the way of quality pet care. I'm available for sitting 7 days a week on short- and long-term notice, and rarely gone from the home more than a few hours at a time. Message me about additional walk and drop-in availability! I fully believe that keeping pets in your home is the safest, most comfortable option for them while you're away. I treat your home with the utmost respect, caring for pets and plants, bringing in mail, feeding fish, locking doors and gates, and completing other household responsibilities. Responsive communication is a big priority for me, so I respond quickly and check-in regularly with photos, videos, and messages while you're away. My friends, family, or partners are never in your home. Similar to being in the outdoors, I operate with a leave-no-trace attitude. I clean up after myself, wash towels and bedding, and run dishwashers before departure. In most cases, you'll never know I was there, except for a happy pet whose thrilled to see you when you get home. I do not offer pet-sitting or dog-sitting services in my home at this time. ⭐More reviews!⭐ "Skylar was absolutely great and would highly recommend! One of our dogs is doodle who is anxious and shy. Skylar was so patient with him and really took her time getting to know him at his speed, which we greatly appreciated. Skylar was also super prompt, had amazing communication regarding updates on our dogs, and took great care of our house and plants. We will for sure be using her again!" - Taylor M. "Skylar provided excellent house- and dog-sitting services while I was gone for 12 days. She did a great job of keeping me informed throughout my trip, she asked great questions which let me know that she was engaged, and my house was spotless when I returned. My 3 golden retrievers were obviously happy while I was gone (pictures and videos) and when I got home. One of them is a special needs 3-legged tripod. Skylar followed all my instructions to a T, and all of them were very well cared for I will use Skylar’s services again for sure. And I would be happy to recommend her to my best friend. " - Theresa M.
“Morgan was excellent in taking care of our bashful cat. Seeing pictures of the two of them getting along so splendidly made us relax and enjoy our vacation even more!”
“Sarah was amazing with our sweet and shy scaredy-cat. Maya has stranger danger issues but liked Sarah immediately. It was great to get daily photos and updates showing how happy our girl was. We would highly recommend Sarah for pet sitting to anyone. It is comforting to know that Maya and our home were taken well care of.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Garden City
Amazing care throughout our extended trip. Kalli, your rover cards and communication while we were gone were both incredible. I had immense peace of mind knowing that the cats were in such capable hands. I appreciate the things you did around the house as well - grabbing mail, bringing the trash in, and especially putting the dog food away when it was delivered. Thank you thank you! We will definitely be return customers.
Alinda was great! This was my first experience booking with Rover, and she did not disappoint. She watched my two cats while I was out of town and followed all of my instructions, which was so important for my cat with health issues. She was punctual, flexible, communicated frequently, respectful of my home, and very attentive to my cats. I will definitely be booking with her again!
I'm giving Alie 5 Stars only because 10 Stars is not an option. She's the best sitter I've had by far. Always on point with pix, care and communication. She's now my "go-to" sitter. If you're seeking someone who is thoughtful, professional, and trustworthy, she's the best. Full stop!
Phoenix (Lea H.) did a great job checking in on my new puppy while I was gone for a couple of hours. This was the first time I would be absent from the house in the two weeks since I have had him and I was very anxious about leaving my 10-week old puppy alone in his crate. Phoenix put me at ease with her knowledge of "all things puppy" and her pleasant, quiet demeanor. I was especially grateful she sent me a picture of my sweet Bobby, and kept me informed of his activities. All things seemed to go quite well and I am much relieved. I would definitely ask Phoenix (Lea) to watch him again.
Ciera and James have been wonderful with drop-in visits for Knox! They communicate really well, are reliable, and take great care of him during each visit. I always feel confident knowing Knox is in good hands with them. They’re attentive to his needs and treat him with genuine care. I would definitely recommend Ciera and James and will happily have them look after Knox again!
Stephani was amazing! She sent me photos and updates on the boys (our cats) each day. She was even able to coax them out of hiding to eat on the 3rd day. They are very frightened of people they don’t know. She also brought in a package that was left on our front porch. We have already booked with her for upcoming care fr the boys. I highly recommend and trust Stephani!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Garden City is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,498 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garden City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Garden City. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
