About: At every party, I go find the fur baby to hang out with. I have experience training puppies (nothing formal), adopting skittish strays, and my last dog lived to be 16! There is no mess, behavior, or age I am unwilling to work with. If your animal needs space, exercise or cuddles, I am your girl. I am available all times, any day of the week. My work is mostly remote with my own laptop and I make my own hours. Each pet is unique and I will work with you to make sure I can care for them as respectfully as possible. I believe in boundaries and consent and that extends to your home and your animals.
“So great to have peace of mind when Becky is taking care of our dogs. Gave me updates at every visit and made sure they got got their potty breaks and some snuggles. Will definitely be using here again!”
“Abby was wonderful with our dogs! They both really liked her! She understood their needs, as senior dogs, and made sure they got lots of love and snuggles. Panda needs medication and Abby was diligent with making sure she followed his schedule.”
About: I have 3 dogs of my own and have been raised with usually more than 2 dogs my whole life.I love walking around with animals it make the walks much more fun. I’m currently available anytime in the morning but am unavailable from 2-4pm on weekdays. My availability for weekends is very much open for any of your pets needs. My dogs usually get 2 walks a day around 30 minutes to an hour each.We like walking around parks and always trying to visit new places.
About: I've been walking and checking in on friends' and family's dogs for years. I never got to have my own growing up, so dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I'm reliable, easy to communicate with, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with every dog I meet. I'm new to Rover but I'm serious about building something here and I will always show up for your pup! I work full time during the week, but I have availability in the evenings and on weekends and enjoy staying active during my free time. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I do my best to be flexible, communicative, and reliable. My goal is to make pet care as easy and stress free as possible while making sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I currently offer walks and drop in visits so your pet can stay comfortable in the environment they know best. I take being trusted in someone else’s home very seriously and always aim to be respectful, organized, and attentive while caring for your pet. I know every animal has different needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover for as long as I can remember. Caring for pets truly brightens my day, and I make it a priority to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, energy levels, and personalities, and I’m happy to tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort and happiness. Pet care is a structured part of my weekly routine. I intentionally plan my schedule to allow for consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, and I adjust as needed to meet each pet’s specific needs. I care for pets by prioritizing their routine, comfort, and safety. I follow all client instructions carefully and communicate clearly to ensure peace of mind.
About: I have loved pets my whole life. My experience includes many years working for a local humane society, pitbull rescue, vet clinic, and doggy day care. I am certain that I can accommodate your furry friend regardless of their needs! While I work full time, I work from home, so I am able to bring my set-up to you and stay in your home to avoid extra stress on your pet! I will make sure all rules of the pet owner(s) are followed. Dogs will only be taken outside on leashes (unless a secure yard is accessible) and cats will not be taken outside ever.
About: We love animals!! My wife and I have two Labrador Retrievers of our own (Scarlord and Lady). We’re fun people, we have goofy dogs and we always respect the rules that our clients are comfortable with setting for their doggos. Whether your dogs are chill or nuts, we’ll accommodate and facilitate their happiness! We play with our dogs all the time and go on a few walks/longboard runs during the day, as well as play in our big fenced-in backyard. Any other dogs are welcome in our home and will get plenty of love and attention from us :) Our Rover experience comes with: An open floor plan house, two resident dogs that love other dogs, a big fenced-in backyard to play, running trails, plenty of toys, treats and love, and of course belly scratches 🤙🏾
“Skye made a new friend with Nahla. She sent pics and updates at each visit. And being a vet tech she passed on some info that we needed to watch about Nahla. Skye spirit was calming for Nahla so.less stress for the separation days.”
About: I have experience caring for my long haired chihuahua. I have previous experience of care of two coon dogs and I also learned about equestrian horse care for a few years. Always open and eager to care and learn about animal needs!! I am a part time student with open availability mainly during M-F! I have a lot of free time currently to give to pet care and can communicate any schedule needs. The pets in my home live a structured, comfortable, carefree life. Fed on a certain schedule, cared and walked on a certain schedule as well. Crates, toys, treats and bedding always provided.
“Andrea could not have been any better. She was professional, incredibly reliable and communicative, responsive, and accommodating for our dog while checking in on him. I would recommend for anyone to use Andrea, as she is a valuable and rare asset for this area.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Garfield on Rover is $19.95 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Garfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
