“Sarah was very communicative and sent updates during her visits with Ellie, and E seemed very happy to hang out with Sarah. Very professional experience. We’ll definitely book again!”
“I really hope we can do this again together. My girls were so happy and well cared for. I really liked the updates and jr was lovely seeing how relaxed my girls were even though I’d been gone for five days. Jordan took notes when we left and it helped to ease my mind. She was just wonderful.”
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 7 years old at my grandmothers dog grooming salon. I’ve always loved both dogs and cats, and I’ve always felt a connection to them. I have a 12 year old dog and just recently lost my 18 year old cat. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily. On days that I’m working I have plenty of time to walk my dog and feed her in the morning, and once I get out of work i have just enough time to do a walk and feed her! On my days off I tend to spend as much time with my pets as possible, wether is playing, walking, or cuddling! I care for my pets at home by spending quality time with them. My dog loves walks, playing with toys, doing tricks for treats, and cuddling. My cat enjoys lounging with me some days, but he isn’t very playful.
About: Owned and taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Can’t remember a time without having pets! Currently own two crazy pups and two pretty kitties, and can’t wait to meet yours. Have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between. I am a full time firefighter/EMT, so I only work two 24hr shifts a week, and the rest of the time I get to play with yours, and my own animals! Love to hike or be outdoors with as many pets as possible! If they’re happy, I’m happy! I will follow all rules set for your pet, and be sure to keep their safety at the top of the list! As a pet owner, I can’t imagine something happening to my own animals, and I would never want to let anything happen to yours!
“Kristin F. did a fantastic job taking care of our rabbit Sasha.She followed our directions to a t and sent pictures after every visit and a report card. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Sarah-Jane could not be a better pet sitter! Our cat, Louis, absolutely adores her, as do we. She is thorough, attentive, and communicative. She has a clear love for animals and it shines through in her work. She goes above and beyond to take care of our special guy and to keep us updated every step of the way. We have booked with her many times and will continue to do so whenever possible - we cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“Ria was an amazing sitter for us when we left for an international trip for our cat Lily. She takes so many adorable photos and videos that we loved watching while we were away. She was incredibly descriptive with her check-ins and was great with Lily and making sure she checked with us about her feeding habits etc to make sure what was normal for her. We’re so lucky to have found her as we just recently moved to the area and needed a new cat sitter- thanks so much Ria!”
“Roxanne came and checked in on my cat everyday for 2 weeks. I got pictures and videos and felt so happy knowing my baby was being well taken care of. Usually my cat has separation anxiety but when I came back she seemed so happy and healthy!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Hancock is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hancock
Sarah is amazing!! We left for a trip for 8 days and came back expecting a little bit of a mess from our cats and it felt so clean coming home! Which was amazing after an 11 hour travel day and a 6 hour time difference walking into our house and it being as clean as it was, was such a blessing! We felt so safe leaving our cats with her again and she went above and beyond with communication and making our cats feel comfortable just with her presence. Our cats are not the nicest cats and definitely have attitude from time to time so knowing she could come in feed them, clean the cat litter, engage in some playtime and clean up the mess they left everywhere was so relieving…. It made us have an enjoyable vacation and be able to actually enjoy our vacation without having to worry about our cats too much. And honestly to me, that’s what makes her the best cat sitter we’ve had! Thank you!🙏🏼

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hancock is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $31 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 925 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hancock. 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 Hancock. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
