“Debora is the absolute cat’s pajamas!!! My cat, Scott, had only been watched by close friends and family prior to my recent trip. And I was a bit nervous about leaving him for so long, especially since he can be a little particular. But Debora was so amazing in the care she gave, it made some of the people on the trip jealous with every update. If I ever need someone to watch my cat again, Debora (aka his new best friend) is top of my list.”
“Michelle is excellent - the most patient and reliable sitter. One of our pups is a bit particular about people coming into the house, but Michelle has done great to ensure that he feels comfortable and can trust her. We are so grateful!”
“I would give Ayesha 10 stars if I could. She has a pleasant demeanor and my 3 big furbabies feel in love with her right away. She kept me well informed at each checkin and was very responsive. I would highly recommend her.”
“I was absolutely pleased with Sydney’s care of my kitties while we were gone. She went above and beyond what was asked of her. Excellent communication. I would recommend her highly.”
“Suzanne was phenomenal with my dog and took great care of him during visits while I was out of town. Walks, belly rubs, and play time, she sent detailed updates and ensured he was well taken care of.”
“Lori did a great job taking care of our two cats. Treated them as if they were here own. When we got back home everything was perfect. I think the cats miss her. She is pleasant to talk to and very professional. Highly recommend.”
“Janelle is amazing! After my other sitters had to change availability, I needed someone else. She is courteous and communicative. And I could tell my kitties were comfortable, based solely on the photos she sent. I’m going to use her again for sure.”
About: After my senior dog of 15 years passed way, my love for animals has needed somewhere to go, and now I want to help take care of your pets like they’re my own! I have over 16 years of experience caring other people’s dogs, as well as my own. I care deeply about understanding your personal preferences/request as well as the dogs unique personality and needs. I work remote so I can be fully present when housesitting and have significant flexibility during the day. I will always ask questions if I am unclear on any expectations and send frequent updates just the way I want when someone’s watching my dog! I love all different dog personality, types, and energy levels and meeting people and animals where they are at. I work remote so I have 24/7 flexibility and can work around your needs and schedule. I am adaptive and sensitive to your specific care needs. First, I learn the pets specific personality traits, and needs, and clarify with the owner of anything that is unclear or any questions I have. I make sure I’m always readily available to send updates pictures and notes about how the pet is doing because I know how important that is for myself when someone’s taking care of my dog to have that piece of mind and frequent updates.
“This is our 2nd time working with Rosemary and she is fantastic! Our Pom is a handful between a medical condition and a general love of attention and she loves Rosemary and is always excited to see her.”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of animals. I’ve had both cats and dogs since I was a kid, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and needs. I currently have a five year old Carolina Dog who I adopted from a rescue at 8 weeks old. Raising her from a puppy has given me hands on experience with puppy care, training, patience, and all the little things that come with helping a young dog grow into a happy, well adjusted companion. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away I'm currently working a part time job at home with a very flexible schedule. I have open availability during the week as well as some weekend availability. I’ll mainly care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’ll follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, playtime, and medications, while making sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of attention. I want them to feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve trained a 1-year-old Doberman and lived with a Pomeranian and Shiba Inu for several years as their daily companion. I've also had a full course of private training sessions (1 on 1) with Petsmart trainer, so I am very adept at making sure your dog is comfortable and well taken care of. From feeding to playtime, I was involved in every part of their care. I have a calm, friendly energy that dogs naturally gravitate toward—it’s like magic how quickly they bond with me! I combine hands-on training experience with daily companionship, giving me insight into each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic play or gentle senior care, I adapt with ease and genuine love. Dogs don’t just tolerate me—they truly enjoy being around me. I will always take pictures and videos and send them to owners frequently, to make sure your pets are enjoying every moment with me. My wife and I like to keep a very clean house to make sure all visiting dogs have a comfortable environment. I am working from home remotely, so the timing is pretty flexible to take care of dogs any time on weekday or weekends, day and night. Whether in my home or yours, your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards, and I always follow your care instructions closely—meals, walks, meds, and routines. I build trust through calm, respectful handling and constant supervision. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and part of the family, whether they’re here for the day or overnight.
About: I’ve always had a huge love for dogs and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pup’s unique personality! I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to the little things that help each dog feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to care for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need plenty of playtime and consistency to senior pups who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, feeding schedules, and care instructions. Most importantly, I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, walks, and belly rubs while you're away! I am currently a full-time CRNA student, so I will have plenty of time to be able to love on your pups while you are away at work/school/travel. I am currently available Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday! I am more than happy to come to your place to do drop in visits, play with your pup, or take them on a walk to get some of that energy out!
About: Hi there! I am a college student and lifelong animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets. I currently work as a Canine Coach at Dogtopia Raleigh-Northwest and have several years of professional experience as a dog walker and pet sitter with two trusted pet care companies. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need a long walk to relaxed pets who just want some company and attention. Whether you need a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets, I treat them like they’re my own. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routine. I’m also more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I truly love what I do and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, evening, and weekend care. I work part-time at a dog daycare and attend a couple of afternoon classes during the week, but I take extra care to plan my schedule so I can still provide reliable visits, walks, and attentive care for my clients. As my Rover client base grows, I plan to open up even more availability to dedicate additional time to Rover bookings. I always follow your instructions and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I enter your home as directed, lock up behind me, and respect any off-limit areas. I do a quick walkthrough to check for any messes or accidents, and I pay close attention to your pet's behavior to ensure they feel secure and cared for.

Tori did yet another absolutely phenomenal job taking care of our cats while we were on a trip! She went above and beyond for us, was extremely communicative and our cats were sooo happy to see her again. Thank you so much! We look forward to booking with you again in the future!
Emily was absolutely exceptional! She took phenomenal care of Arya, going above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Her visit updates were wonderfully detailed, and the photos she sent were an absolute highlight of our day. Knowing Arya was in such attentive and loving hands gave us complete peace of mind. We couldn't ask for a better sitter and will definitely be booking Emily again!
Lindsay has been the absolute best! We've never had a cat sitter before and we were very nervous leaving our girl but Lindsay made us so comfortable from the very first visit. She took the most adorable photos while we were away and it was very clear that our cat wasn't missing us too much because she was getting lots of loving from Lindsay ❤️
Griffin was amazing with Cooper! She took great care of him and updated me all the time with how he was and what all she was doing with him, she always was there on time to take him out which made being away from him much less stressful knowing that he was being taken care of the same way I do! Highly recommend to anyone needing a sweet caregiver to their pup!
Maisy had a wonderful time with Bianca on her walks the last couple of days! I appreciated her updates & photos as well as the communication that helped me feel Maisy was so well cared for. Definitely recommend and will hopefully get to use Bianca in the future much more!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Genlee is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 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 5,409 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Genlee. 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 Genlee. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
