About: My family has had dogs since I was born and we fostered dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have helped out several family friends by pet sitting and walking their dogs. I’ve had some experience pet sitting cats as well. I believe all animals are special and deserve to be treated with love. At the moment I’m working part time with scattered hours so I’m able to fit in time caring for and playing with your pets I can adapt to any routines and rules that are needed to care for your pet the way you do. I am also physically active and give your pet the kind of exercise they need.
“Lee was amazing taking care of my cats! She was super communicative and responsible, and even my shy kitty warmed up to her immediately! Would highly recommend her and will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: Hello, I would love to watch your pet. I recently graduated from W&M, and I’ve taken care of many dogs over the years. I have experience with senior dogs as well as puppies. I am currently staying at home before I head to Portugal in a month, so I will dedicate a lot of time to your pet’s needs. I make sure that your pet is happy and well-taken care of by sitting with them and going on long walks together. I am respectful of your home.
About: I am a recent graduate from The University of Virginia who grew up in an animal-loving home. I am an attentive pet sitter and dog walker with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and in-home care, focusing on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ve grown up caring for animals and currently have a friendly Bichon and two cats of my own, so I understand how important trust, consistency, and individualized care are. My experience includes daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and administering simple medications when needed. I’m especially patient with shy, senior, or anxious pets and always take a calm, respectful approach. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for daytime walks and visits, evenings, and weekends, and I can accommodate pets who need multiple check-ins or extra attention throughout the day. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and extended care, as well as evenings and weekends. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to accommodate pets who need consistent routines, multiple check-ins, or extra attention throughout the day. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with one friendly Bichon and two cats who are well-socialized around other animals. I carefully supervise all interactions and can easily separate pets if needed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, prioritize cleanliness and safety, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.
“Damacia was very prompt in communication, friendly, and left us detailed notes and pictures when dropping in on our dogs. Will definitely use again when needed!”
About: I have been house/dog sitting since I was 18. My goal is to let your animal have a calm experience while you are away. Experienced in senior care, daily meditation, specialty food, diva dogs and unique needs. All dogs are 10/10! I work 4 hour shifts but work from home most days and have a very flexible schedule. Wifi is needed for day and night care. Most days are open for walks. Regular occurring appointments are encouraged! I have a small apartment that is unsuitable for sitting at my home. Home/pet sitting: Texting daily check ins (with pictures if possible). Clear instructions for their daily routine. Medication instructions or check lists. Vet info clearly written or posted in home. A short list of nicknames they respond to (Max, maxeroine and cheese, maxster). Lots of cookies to buy their love.
About: I am very available in the summertime (I am a teacher), and I am available on day on Saturdays and Sundays. During the week, I am able to travel to your pet in the morning and evening (before and after work). On weekends and on school breaks I am very flexible. I currently am a teacher, so I am available morning and evening on weekdays, and I am available all day on weekends. I am also available all the time in the summer. I am very willing to come take care of your pets at your house. I am very welcoming to all behaviors and I will follow all expectations perfectly, as well as take care of your animal with as much love as you would!
“Thank you, Robin, for taking great care of our elderly cat and our home. While we were away we knew that he was being fed, receiving his medicine, and getting some love. When we returned home, everything was clean and organized (he’s a messy eater!). We will definitely contact you again next time we need a pet sitter.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs as small as a mini pincher/chihuahua and as big as a bernidoodle. I am willing to make sure your pet has all they need and are well taken care of. I work from home Monday thru Friday. That gives me a lot of flexibility with my time. Saturday and Sunday I typically spend my days at home with the exception of going to the gym in the mornings. I recently moved back into my Richmond home, and have a large backyard that’s perfect for your pet. I have a large backyard that’s perfect for play. We’d spend a lot of time outside on the nice and sunny days. If I need to come to your home, I have a child that loves dogs. He is extremely gentle with them and enjoys their company.
“Nick’s care and communication have been absolutely phenomenal, and I truly appreciated it. I could tell Sebastian felt well loved and cared for through the pictures that he sent during my time away! This was my first time using Rover, and I'm sold. I'll definitely keep Nick in mind as I travel frequently, and we've had some family shifts so care is not always as readily available.”
“Aubrey is an absolute ANGEL!!! My dog Smalls doesn’t love everyone and is a little apprehensive with people at first. When Aubrey first came in she knew exactly what to do to immediately earn her trust and let her approach her, after just a minute Smalls had already fallen in love!!! Not only does Aubrey send me tons of updates and photos, I can tell Smalls is SO comfortable and happy with her and that Aubrey understands dogs intuitively, more than most. After having a bad experience with another almost dog sitter, I feel like it was fate meeting Aubrey and I’m so happy I have someone that I trust and that my dog loves when I have to be gone for a while! 100% recommend Aubrey!!!”
“This was my first time using rover so I was a little apprehensive, but Alisandra met me before the booking which gave me so much peace of mind. She was super patient with my cat and very communicative and flexible. I would definitely rebook with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Emily took such wonderful care of our babies, she was thoughtful, going above and beyond what we’d expected. She even hurried over and let Koko out of a bedroom that he trapped himself in when he pushed the door closed. Thanks so much, Emily, for being our kitty hero!”
About: I love sending photos and updates to owners. It helps them relax knowing their pets are safe and happy. We have had a lot of animals growing up. I'm no stranger to spoon feeding elderly dogs and following strict diets. I love going on walks even if it takes a while to get a few hundred feet. I just moved back to VA to be closer to my family. I'm a word of mouth carpenter so my schedule is very flexible. Sometimes I don't work for two weeks, but I can always make time for pet sitting. I'm here for you! Whether its separation anxiety, diet, exercise, or tug of war, i am here to make sure your needs and your pets needs are met. I can send updates and photos daily to ensure your pets are having the best time while your away.

Genevieve was absolutely wonderful!! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my three cats. She was incredibly communicative, attentive, and made me feel so comfortable leaving them in her care while I was away. Even my shyest cat warmed up to her almost immediately, which says a lot! It was obvious how comfortable and happy all three were with her. I came home to three happy, well-cared-for cats, and I couldn’t be more grateful! I’ll absolutely be booking with her again! :)
Casey is a WONDERFUL sitter who takes excellent care of our cats. She is super communicative and is thoughtful when situations arise, like recently letting us know that our younger cat was getting into mischief while we're away and guides them like they are her own. When we come home our cats are always calm and we can tell they have kept to their regular routines and had special attention and nurturing.
We love Kyra so much! Even though we hadn’t needed her services in quite some time she was easy to book, extremely flexible when I made several changes, super attentive to our Mocha - and even pets she wasn’t asked to check on - and kept us up to date all day with notes and photos. Will not hesitate to book with Kyra again and again ☺️.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Granite is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $37 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 2,511 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Granite. 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 Granite. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
