“Samantha is awesome! My cats came out and let her give them treats and cuddles so they obviously liked her :) Looking forward to working with her again soon!”
“Kristina is so great with my cats and I never have to worry while I’m out of town!! She has been so nice to them and it is evident in the way they have warmed up to her since the first time she sat for me!”
About: I love animals and pets. Currently, I have a very special cat named Maxine. Whenever I am with my friends or relatives' dogs, I enjoy them so much. Hi! I'm a dependable pet caregiver who travels with my husband as he works remotely in different cities each week. Each week I update my profile to reflect the city I’m in — so feel free to reach out if you see I’m nearby! I’ve always been an animal lover — I grew up with dogs and have experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs of all sizes. Because I’m traveling, I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting during weekdays and some weekends. I treat every pet as if they’re my own, and I take pride in being responsible, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a quick check-in while you're out, or full-time care while you're away, I’m here to help! Our cat has been fine welcoming dogs into our home for short stays. I am open to having your pet at my house or coming to your home.
About: As a senior, I’ve been fortunate enough to love and be loved by, many pets from dogs and cats, to hamsters, raccoons, and whatever animal needs me. My daughter would say I worry more about the animals than her…I won’t confirm nor deny …wink wink. But I believe animals are a gift to everyone and we are lucky to know them. I’m semi-retired. I work part time a couple mornings a week, but I am looking to supplement my income doing something I enjoy doing. Animals have always been important to me and I enjoy their company. I am not available for staying in your home or your pets staying in mine. I am available to take your babies for a walk, feed, water, and cuddles during the day or evening while you are away. You can trust they will be taken great care of and loved.
“Taylor was very helpful when our carbon monoxide detector went off during her pet visit. We appreciated the communication to help us resolve the unexpected event. All while she took good care of our cat!”
About: Hello! I am Victoria. I am going to school part-time for Business Management and work full time on 3rd shift, which gives me time during the off hours to drop in and check on your pet as well as take them for a nice walk during the day. I’ve had and taken care of pets since I was 10, mainly dogs, lizards and hamsters. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors and am comfortable giving medication as needed. I work 3rd shift. I am available between my sleep schedule, mid day to mid afternoon to care for your pet with drop-ins and take for walks, usually 20-30min. I care for the pet as they were my own. There’s no shortage of walks, scratches, love and cuddles. And any other enrichment the pet may need.
“Emma took care of our cats again and was great! She gave updates each visit and even stayed late one night to make sure one of our kitties was okay. She keeps everything tidy and is always easy to reach. She will continue to be our go-to cat sitter!”
About: My mom’s friends have always trusted me to watch their pets. I have had to take care of senior dogs including my own having to give them their pills. After work on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and the weekend until I can make enough money to do this full time! I want to be a able to quit my current job to do this full time! Giving them enough attention whether it be playing and taking them for walks getting them outside as much as possible. Feeding, bathing, training. Making sure to not leave them alone too long.
About: I have rescued pets and trained them as well as handled dogs since they were puppies. My father was a reputable dog breeder and my daughter is a vet tech. I'm currently working part-time M-F and will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available weekdays after 4 and weekends for sitting or boarding.I I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can also provide a private room and/or crate for your dog if they prefer to just be by themselves. Otherwise, I can stay and/or visit your pet in your home and offer walks to exercise.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 460 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gibbsville. 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 Gibbsville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
