“Carsyn has such a heart for animals. From the moment I met her I knew she would treat my baby boy with the same love and care I do. My puppy took right to her. I can say she is a blessing as I dont just trust anyone with my boy.”

“Madison is superb. She’s incredibly responsive and responsible. We were nervous about leaving our pups behind and concerned we might have trouble finding someone brave AND loving enough to care for the bully breed. Madison didn’t flinch and our dogs took to her immediately. She is professional, kind, punctual, caring, and will even send photos, which is incredibly thoughtful and reassuring. We won’t hesitate to rely on Madison in the future and highly recommend her services to others.”

About: I have grown up having dogs and have had 5 dogs in my lifetime so far, I currently have 3 of my own! So far, I have had experience with taking care of a dog who takes medication, Puppies, old doggies (they are sometimes the sweetest ones 🥺❤️), medium sized dogs, larger dogs, and teeny tiny ones! I have also done check in’s for my neighbor’s cat. I am passionate about working with dogs especially, it is such a rewarding and fulfilling experience and I would be happy to discuss working with you on how to help your dog live a healthy and loved life! I am currently working part-time so on Monday’s, Tuesdays, and Friday’s I am usually available (still contact me just in case because my manager doesn’t always schedule me!) from 2:30pm-3:30pm and 7pm-8pm. I am available Wednesday’s and Thursday’s from 2:30pm-8pm. On Saturday’s I am free unless stated otherwise. And Sunday’s I am available from 8am-5pm with the exception of church in the morning! Daytime House Sitting (6-8 hours) I offer daytime house sitting for pet parents who need extended care during the day. This includes staying in your home for 6-8 hours to provide full supervision, companionship, potty breaks, feeding, and playtime. Rate: $60 for 6-8 hours. Custom quotes available for longer stays. If your dog doesn’t have many toys, I bring some toys with me to ensure that your dog has a blast and to keep them from finding other objects to play with that are not toys. I also bring a spare leash and collar just in case my client does not have one.

“Ariane was dependable and came every day as expected while I was gone on vacation. She sent me updates and notes on my two cats and made me feel very comfortable with her being there to take care of them. She also sent plenty of pictures! In addition, she fed my fish and watered my plant. Would recommend her! Thank you, Ariane!”

“Mia was amazing. She is very professional and kept me updated throughout the time I was gone. She wanted to know everything about Loki and took notes to be on top of things over the weekend I had her dog sit. I strongly suggest first-time customers book with her if you want a completely stress free booking. I will 100% go with Mia the next time I need a dog sitter, knowing not only I, but my dog Loki, will have a pleasant experience.”

About: Hi, I’m Laurel! I grew up with animals my whole life and have always had a genuine passion for pets of all sizes and species. I’m fun, organized, responsible, and excited for the opportunity to help care for your pets while you’re away! What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet as an individual. I understand that young, senior, and special-needs pets may require different levels of patience, attention, and care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means extra playtime and structure for a young pet or a slower pace and additional attention for a senior pet. Most importantly, your babies will be cared for, loved, and treated just as if they were my own. I want you to feel confident and comfortable knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away! I currently work a full-time job, but pet care fits well into my daily routine. I’m available in the early mornings for feedings, potty breaks, walks, and some quality time before I head to work. In the evenings, I’m available for walks, playtime, dinner, and of course, plenty of snuggles and attention before bedtime. I also have much more flexibility on weekends and can dedicate additional time to your pets, whether they need longer walks, extra playtime, companionship, or just someone to keep them company. I’m organized and responsible, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive the care and attention they’re used to. While I do have a full-time job, I’m committed to making pet care a priority and providing dependable, loving care whenever your pets need me. I’ve grown a genuine love for animals and feel that I can bond with almost any pet. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m happy to follow your specific instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, bedtime routines, and anything else your pet may need. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m so looking forward to getting to know your pets, giving them plenty of love and attention, and helping you have peace of mind while you’re working, traveling, or simply away from home. Your pets’ happiness and well-being are my priority! 🐾❤️

About: Welcome to my page! My name is Tracy and I would love to take care of your pet. I grew up taking care of my pets, both cats and dogs, and I currently have a goldendoodle that I absolutely adore! I have also been entrusted to take care of my friend’s pets while they were away. From my experience, I know that no pet is the same. I get to know your pet and learn to care for them in a way that is unique and special to them! I currently work full-time during the week, but am available for boarding on the weekends and most holidays. I am also available evenings and weekends if your pet needs to have a potty break or go on a walk! For visits in your home, I prefer to meet prior to my initial visit to go over instructions and expectations and to have a meet and greet with your pet. For boarding in my home, your pet will be able to have full access to the house or they can be crated if that is what is preferred. I live in a great neighborhood for walking and I also have a screened in porch that is great for napping!

“John stayed the day with our two dogs. It was our first time using him, so he was kind enough to come meet the pups a couple days prior to sitting them - to make sure it was a good fit. The dogs immediately liked him & approved! He arrived on time, sent pictures during the day, and was very polite. I plan to use him again :-)”

“Erica is absolutely amazing! She took care of my fur babies, Milo and Pickle Boy, and went completely above and beyond. She always arrived right on time, took them for great walks, gave them extra snuggles, and even surprised them with treats and pup cups! She is incredibly responsible and always made sure the doors were locked securely behind her. She kept me updated every single day with pictures, letting me know exactly what they ate and what they did in the yard. She even cleaned up any messes they made. Erica is the absolute perfect choice for your dogs—I will definitely be hiring her again!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years, and I truly treat every animal like they’re my own. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and little quirks because I know every animal is different. I’m currently enrolled in the online program at CVCC, where I’m majoring in Criminal Justice. Since my classes are online, I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with others to accommodate their needs. I’m dependable, adaptable, and willing to work with your schedule to ensure everyone’s needs are met. I always try to keep things as normal as possible for your pet while you’re away. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and anything else they’re used to. I also give them lots of attention and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. When I’m caring for them in their home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is clean and taken care of. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes them happiest and most comfortable.

About: Hi! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15 and caring for family pets since I was little. I’ve always loved giving special attention to pets and getting to know their personalities. My family dog is in his senior years and we’ve taken great care of his specific needs, always making sure he’s not in pain and receives the love he deserves. I’ve been around animals of all sizes. I'm a dependable and caring animal lover. While I'm new to Rover, I've spent years around pets and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I'm active, attentive, and committed to making sure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your dog's needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I believe pet parents should feel at ease about how their pets are being taken care of. Regular updates, photos, and communication are an essential part of pet care. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I'll treat your pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently working part-time and I have a loose routine which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members! It’s important for me to keep to the schedules and familiarity of a pets’ routine and make a visit as stress free as possible. Being aware of surroundings on walks and ensuring safety for a pet is a top priority, which builds their trust and leads to more enjoyable play time. Paying attention their behavior and small signs of discomfort reassures owners that I care for their animals in the same way they would.

About: I have six years of experience caring for dogs, including my own and pets belonging to friends and family. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable following each dog’s individual routine. I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention while keeping owners updated with photos. My background in behavior has also taught me to remain calm, observant, and consistent with every pet. I work Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., so I’m available for evening visits during the week and have more flexible availability on weekends. I’ll always confirm timing in advance to ensure your pet receives dependable, unrushed care. I will follow your cat’s normal routine and all care instructions closely. I’ll keep doors and windows secure, refresh food and water, clean the litter box, provide playtime or quiet companionship, and send regular photo updates after each visit.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Goode on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $6 and $20 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 573 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Goode. 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 Goode. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
