“Heather is the best! She watched my cat for a few days while I was out on a camping trip and left very thorough notes and pictures while I was away each day. I would highly recommend her to anyone to care for your pets. She does a very thorough job and your pets will be well-cared for ?”
“It was great to get to meet Anna and have her watch my dog Millie. Anna was great with her and was very detailed when filling out the rover care card so I knew just how well Millie was doing (photos and comments). Will absolutely be rebooking with Anna in the future!”
About: I've been caring for pets my entire life, both my own and other people's! My care experience includes dogs, cats, small reptiles, and small birds, all varying in age and specific needs. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters and interning at a reptile zoo. I love every animal I encounter, and would be thrilled at the opportunity to watch yours! I'm available to tailor my schedule to fit the needs of you and your furry friend(s)! Depending on the type of care needed, we'll discuss and build a dually beneficial schedule! My biggest priority is ensuring the comfort and safety of the pets I care for. I recognize that I'm an unfamiliar person stepping onto their turf, so tailoring my energy to align with your pet's personality and learning their needs/boundaries is my first step!
“Emily F did a superb job of catsitting my cat for a week. I've had other sitters in the past, but Emily was by far the best. She texted me everyday with an update of how Kitty was doing. That sounds like a minor thing, but it is appreciated immensely. Good job Emily F, and thankyou!”
About: I've had dogs of all sizes since I was young! I'm currently a mom to a very active senior pitbull and two cats. I have experience with giving medications including injections and I know the importance of preserving a stable routine for pups when their parents are away. I'm frequently the go-to dog watcher in my group of friends! I'm working part-time remotely and part-time in person in the evenings. I'm an early riser so that means I'm available for care throughout the day until about 4 and then available for evening care from 8pm on! I know daily routines are important so I will strive to keep your pet's routine the same to the best of my ability! I can check in for potty breaks, walks, playtime, whatever your pet needs!
About: Hi. My name is Lisa. I am new to Rover but not to loving and caring for pets. I have always had a dog or cat (or fish, guinea pig or turtle). Currently, I have Winston, my almost 17 yr old minie doxie. Previously I was an SPCA volunteer dog walker. I have experience with many breeds/sizes/temperaments. I am quite flexible and offer walking and other drop-in services in the South Williamsport area. I am currently retired and have a pretty flexible schedule. I have a senior dog to care for at home (Winston, my almost 17 year old mini doxie.) I can care for your pets in your home and will follow care instructions thoroughly. I will work with you to ensure your pets needs are completely satisfied.
About: I am highly enthusiastic about dog behavior and dog care. I started working at a dog daycare facility in 2016, and have worked my way up to a supervisor within no time. I have certificate of completion of Knowing Dogs 101: Dog Language and Knowing Dogs 201: Group Play. My previous job was a cage free dog boarding/daycare facility, which can average 80 dogs a day. I am capable of watching and caring for these dogs in groups of 40 by myself. I will always have a phone on me, or someone with a phone. Contacting me via: email, text, or call will be no problem. I understand that caring for dogs is a life responsibility, and I always plan my day around my dogs. I am very flexible with my time and will be able to accomidate your needs. My husband, Joey may also be around your dogs while he/she is with me in my home. He is a dog lover as well, please let me know if other people being around your dog is an issue! I’m currently a stay at home mom to newborn twins and a 6 and 4 year old. My husband is a mail carrier which means I’ll have lots of availability in the evenings or on his days off! In my own home i have a fenced in yard, and when looking after pets in someone else’s home, I always double check to make sure all doors and latches are closed, and leashes/ harnesses are securely attached.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Garden View
I couldn't have asked for a smoother and seemless process. We went away for about 3 days for a trip and our dogs were in the best of care. Anna was fantastic with replies and responses. Loved the pictures she sent and updates of how they were doing :)) Thank you so much and will definitely look for you in the future!!
Emily was amazing! We had some issues with the automatic feeders and she was so great with helping find their old bowls to fill up! She communicated often and I always felt super up to date with what my kitties were up to! Both my adult cat and kitten seemed to love her presence. 100 will be rebooking in the future :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Garden View is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $18 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 November 2026, there are 136 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garden View. 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, 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 View. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
