About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.
“Allie is so wonderful and trustworthy! Allie always sends us updates during her drop in visits when we’re at work of our dog which puts our mind as ease. Not to mention, she sends great pictures. It was especially comforting the first time she did a drop in since she had come by to meet us and our dog prior to her first drop in. Allie is flexible and consistent with her schedule and we can count on her for consistent drops in. Allie is fun to work with and we can tell our pup loves her!!! We highly recommend using Allie for your fur babies.”
“Ashley is the absolute best. She takes such good care of our little guy and she provides the most thoughtful updates throughout our vacations. Don’t know what we would do without her!!!”
“Patricia was able to watch our pups with given a short notice due to our schedule changes. She was great with both our 10 year old heeler and our 6 month old heeler (who is a handful). Between her and myself, we have came up with a schedule where she agreed to stop by weekly to let our dogs out! Patricia was great and comes highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was a teen. I currently volunteer at the animal shelter and pet-sit for friends and family when needed. I currently work from home with flexible hours so I am able to accommodate your schedule and your dogs needs whether that’s going on walks or general care. I live in a dog-friendly community with ample space and dog parks for your fur baby to run around! I can crate your dog if needed.
“She has been absolutely wonderful with my dogs, Milo and Koda! She is reliable, caring, patient, and always communicates with me. I feel very comfortable knowing they are in good hands when I’m not home. I really appreciate how attentive and sweet she is with them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs. I enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping pets happy while their owners are away. I also provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Pet care is a natural part of my routine. Every day I dedicate time to feeding, walking, exercising, and giving pets attention and companionship. I enjoy caring for animals and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I provide a safe, loving, and clean environment. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and care. I also follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and happy.
“Jessica went above and beyond taking care of our senior dog over a holiday weekend! She made sure that she had food (even opening our automatic dispenser to be sure), topped up her water, played a ton of fetch with her, and even wiped out her ears when they were bothering her. The whole time, she kept us up to date of what was going on, was on time, and was very respectful of our property. Will definitely use her services again. Thank you so much!”
About: I've had taken care of animals for over 20 plus years. Im also a certified vet assistant as well. Love all animals and would love to meet yours! Im currently unemployed so I would be able to do anytime of the day. I do have 2 chihuahuas of my own as well that I absolutely adore. I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard at my home but I do take my dogs out regularly on leash. But they also have free roam of the entire house.
“Paula was amazing with our animals and her communication was excellent. It’s obvious she’s very comfortable with pet care, easing my mind so I could enjoy my vacation. We will definitely use her for future pet sitting!”
“Ashanti was so kind and flexible with our last-minute pet sitting request! She took time out of her holiday weekend to take care of our fur babies while we were gone, and she went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for. She was great with our pets, too. Our dog loved the extra attention!”
“Liv was great! This was our first time using Rover and she exceeded our expectations. She sent lots of pictures and communication was great. She truly is an animal person and it shows. Thank you again!”
About: I have experience with animals who require both physical and medical challenges. I have nearly 15 years of experience with dog boarding in my home. I'm currently working part time (4 hours a day) so I can still care for your animal needs in my home with no problem. I have a fenced in yard so your dog can play freely but is still protected. My home is calm and quiet so your animals will feel safe.
“Caroline was amazing! Our cat, who is usually skittish and hides with others completely relaxed around her in record time ❤️ Caroline is thorough, kind and patient. It definitely allowed for a more relaxing vacation, knowing our little Daisy was being well cared for :) Colleen”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for several years, and I truly believe our pets are family—just with fur! When your pet stays at Axel’s Place, you can count on daily routine walks, a fun trip to the local dog park, plenty of belly rubs, and a safe, welcoming home environment. For birthdays and holidays, your pet might even join in on some arts and crafts to bring home to you! I also enjoy making organic dog treats, and if your pet loves them, they might head home with a tasty sample or two. While in college, that I do from home, pet care will currently be my full time work. Giving me plenty of time to spend with your furry friends. I take safety very seriously and understand the importance of creating a secure environment. And will take time to familiarize myself with the fur babies/families routine.
“Chris was fantastic! He was flexible and courteous and showed a genuine care for my dog. He also brought in some packages that arrived. I will definitely ask him next time I’m in need. My Charlie dog loves having him stop by!”

Allie was so sweet with our two pups! One of the pups is senior and has some medical conditions and she kept us updated on her health. She was very professional and detailed. The pups enjoyed their time with her! I will be booking with her again in the future!
From the meet & greet, we knew Heather was a great choice! She was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and our 14 year old Beagle took to her immediately! She took care of feeding our two very shy cats as well. She sent photos and a note. All in all a great first experience! Thanks, Heather!
I had a last-minute need for a sitter for my 2 special needs pups and Keith stepped-up to the plate. He was very patient with them, as they were a little hesitant at first since they are used to a different sitter. They warmed-up to him and were well cared-for, and I received lots of pictures and great updates. I will definitely select him again.
We’ve used Paula multiple times now, and we honestly wouldn’t think of looking for anyone else. She has become someone we completely trust with our dogs, and that kind of peace of mind is priceless when we’re away. Paula is incredibly hardworking, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. She takes the time to make sure she understands every detail of their care and never hesitates to double-check something or ask questions. We really appreciate that about her—it shows how seriously she takes what she does and how important it is to her to do an excellent job. Most importantly, we know our dogs are in wonderful hands with Paula. We never have to worry about whether they’re getting the attention, care, and love they deserve. Knowing that they are being so well looked after allows us to relax and enjoy our time away. Paula has earned our trust time and time again, and we feel very lucky to have found her. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets as if they were her own.
She has been absolutely wonderful with my dogs, Milo and Koda! She is reliable, caring, patient, and always communicates with me. I feel very comfortable knowing they are in good hands when I’m not home. I really appreciate how attentive and sweet she is with them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!
Chris is the absolute best! Our dogs are always so excited to see Chris and we always come home to happy pups. He also takes tons of pictures and is super communicative. This isn’t the first time he’s come to look after our dogs and it certainly won’t be the last.
We love Samantha! My husband and I work a lot so we usually end up booking Samantha 3-5 times per month. Our dogs (and cats) love her and I never worry about their well being when I know she’s coming over. She’s very flexible with scheduling which is amazing when I need her last minute (usually the case). The check ins are a huge plus!
Ashley did a fantastic job taking care of our senior cat and strong-willed beagle! She communicated with me in a very timely manner and provided great details about her visits. It was nice to not have to worry about how they were doing while we were away for the evening.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Garrisonville is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 5,797 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Garrisonville. 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 Garrisonville. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
