“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Olivia took great care of our dog during drop-in visits for two weeks while our schedules were hectic. She provided lots of updates and was proactive and easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend her services and look forward to working with her again!”
“Michaela was amazing! Came to check on my cat once a day while I was on vacation. Qas very responsive and took on the task with pretty short notice. My cat can be kind of grumpy with strangers, but seemed to really like Michaela! Very communicative and responsive.”
“Moxie (and myself) felt comfortable immediately. She has a a real -natural personality. She gave Moxie great care while we were away. It can be odd to hand your house keys off to strangers but I trusted her 100%. Would most definitely hire her again.”
About: I have a lot of patience for animals and I love entertaining them, whether that’s playing with them or going on a long walk. For the younger ones, or ones that just have more energy, I would love to run them and keep them in shape. I am super flexible this summer, aside from a few weeks of travel, so whatever works for you works for me. My main priority is going to the gym, but other than that I’m all yours! Whether it’s feeding, walking, brushing, playing, or simply snuggling, I’m always giving my full attention and affection. Also, I think mental stimulation is often overlooked in animal care so I try to incorporate fun games and activities.
“Liz is great, she sends great pictures and videos and is very informative with the updates. She gives the cats attention and lots of pets. I would definitely hire her again. Thank you so much Liz ❤️”
About: I’ve been pet-sitting for over 20 years! Neighbors, colleagues, family, and friends have relied on me to look after their pets during long and short intervals. Every pet parent knows what it’s like to need an extra hand with their pets, whether it’s an extra check-in or potty break for senior dogs and cats, to some couch time spent with them during a long trip. I like to make sure people come home to a happy pet and that they feel reassured of their pets’ safety and comfort while they’re away! I’m not working during the summer, which means I’m free anytime to spend quality time with your pets. I’m an early riser! Always happy to get a walk in before the sun heats everything up. From September to June I work in an elementary school, which leaves me with a lot of flexible time to walk dogs, cuddle cats, bring in the mail, water the plants, and anything else you need! I will take care of your pets and your home as if they were my own. That means safety is always my top priority for your creatures and your house. I will respect the rules of your house, and do my best to alleviate any concerns you have about being away- frequent check-ins, photo updates, etc. My goal is to provide maximum peace of mind for my clients.
“Arianna was great with my dog Louie. She hung out and played with him in our yard and took several pictures! It’s nice to have someone watch your pet while you’re gone as if they’re their own. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and love spending time with any kind of pet! Currently looking after a friend’s puppy this summer and looking to meet some more furry friends! I am working part-time and will have plenty of time during the week to take care of pets! I am very flexible and open, and up for anything! I have been told I can quickly create a special and trusting relationship with any dog, and I take care of my dog friends very responsibly while having fun with them!
“Caroline was so great, Harvey absolutely loves her! From the second she introduced herself to him, he took to her. He is normally anxious and a little kiddish but Caroline did such an amazing job making him feel comfortable. Absolutely will be hoping to use her again!”
About: I have experience caring for a wide range of pets, especially larger dogs and lots of cats. I’m comfortable with high-energy breeds and understand the needs of both playful and more independent animals. Whether it’s keeping up with a big dog’s exercise needs or making sure a cat feels safe and comfortable, I always focus on giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’ll bet best to do in morning as I’m still in college and I work at sunset club on plumb island as a line cook. I always make sure pets feel safe, whether I’m in their home or they’re in mine. I follow routines closely, give them space to feel comfortable, and keep everything clean and secure. I respect the pet’s personality and the owner’s preferences, and I treat every home with care and professionalism.
“Jessica was pleasant, punctual and great with our Bella! Our dog has anxiety and is not the friendliest around people she doesn’t know. But Jessica did what I suggested and was able to have our dog feel comfortable with her and even alerted us about a situation in our house ! I definitely highly recommend her !”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Georgetown 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Georgetown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Georgetown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
