“Thank you so much for the Excellent care of my fur babies. Pics were sent of drop in visit. My pups enjoyed it. I will definitely book her again when I go on vacation.”
About: I grew up on a farm in North carolina with my family where we had horses, goats, cows- but also many liters of cats and dogs. I have never gone without a pup sleeping my bed. I work at a restaurant so my shifts are short and my time is flexible. I’m open to house sitting, pet sitting, walkings and feedings- anything in that category. I love to just sit and keep my animals company for hours on end. I understand they have feelings too and need to be attended to just as much as we humans do. I know how to handle the sassy ones and keep the anxious ones calm. I am a pre-veterinarian major in college so animals truly are my calling.
About: Since I can remember, I’ve been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by pets. My family taught me from a young age to love, respect, and properly care for animals, and caring for them has always been something very special to me. Over the years, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I enjoy spending time with them, playing, going on walks, giving baths, keeping their space clean and comfortable, and making sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. For me, caring for a pet is more than just a responsibility. it’s about making sure they feel happy, safe, and at home. 🐾❤️ I also work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. This means I can give your pet plenty of attention, follow their routine, and make sure they don’t feel alone for long periods of time. I live in a perfect area full of nature and safe places for your pets for walks, I have a house with enough space and I have a medium-sized balcony that is safe for them.
About: I am caring,respectful and very attentive when it comes to animals. I have trained puppies in my time and as well as care for 15 dogs at once. I do believe in my past life I am the dog whisperer if I must say. Ready to get your baby walked fed and cared for 🥳 I work from home and I can balance my schedule out very accordingly to fit anyone’s needs. I can work around anyone’s timing and I hope I can fit yours! I make my environment very cozy and welcoming to animals and offer the nesseciates that any animal might need. I make sure they are taken care of and loved….oh did I mention…BELLY RUBSS TOO!
“Tammy was amazing, since the beginning at our greet and meet, until the last day she took care of my babies. Communication was excellent, she always replied to my messages and kept me informed at all times regarding the dogs. She was also very accommodating and did her best when tending to my dogs. She cared for them dieing the holidays and she made sure my babies were safe and comfortable during the festivities. One of my dogs still in the puppy phase and she dealt with his shenanigans really well. I really have no complaints, I definitely recommend her and will be using her services in the future. She is one of the best!”
“Taylor was fantastic, so nice and polite when we met and my pup instantly liked her. She did a wonderful job communicating and really took some wonderful photos I will keep forever. Highly recommend booking Taylor.”
About: I have always loved animals from a young age. I have two cats of my own, Bean & Gator :) I’m currently caring for numerous clients including the Penix family’s (as in Micheal Penix, starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons!) I’ve decided to expand my clientele over to Rover! I have years of experience walking, feeding, bathing/grooming, etc all sorts of different house & farm animals. I specialize in day-to-day care but I also am more than qualified to administer medications, bottle feed, and take special care for newborn and senior pets. I’m a Veterinary Technician working in Dade City with two pets of my own, lots of space in my home for private rooms for boarding, and a clean and spacious front/back yard. I look forward to meeting you & your furbaby!! 💞 I spend everyday with my two cats, along with working a few days a week at a veterinary clinic where i’m learning more and more each day on how to provide optimal care for animals. I have an additional room in my home to provide a private space for your pet which is completely sanitized after each guest. I provide treats of all different types for everyone’s pallet and dietary needs. I have a reliable source of transportation to ensure I can be there for your loved one. I have multiple sizes of leashes for walks, crates for any anxious or needing pets and plenty of toys and time to keep them entertained.
“Our dogs were very well taken care of and enjoyed a walk with each drop in! We appreciated Juan’s attention to detail and felt so relieved to have our dogs in good hands.”

About: My interest in becoming a pet sitter started when I was still a child and the neighbors’ dogs who I’d befriended tracked me to my house to come to the kitchen door and ask if I could come out to play. Since then, I've been caring for dogs as early as litters of puppies to their adult and senior years. I’m dog and cat CPR certified which luckily I’ve never had to use but it’s better to be safe than sorry. I’ve cared for many breeds.. mixed, purebreds, super well-trained to shy and needing some encouragement. I love taking caring of animals and being apart of their routine. I’m happy to go into more detail with you as requested or booked services offer us a chance to chat! Taking care of pets is part of my daily life. I own a Siberian husky and I'm usually offering pet care services 7 days a week. I have a good sized 2 bedroom apartment that can accommodate me, up to 2 medium or large size dogs, big comfortable furniture, and plenty of room for playtime, naps, or just ease of maneuvering around. When a dog is daytime visiting or staying overnight I focus my attention here at home and keeping your pet comfortable, cared for, and as little worry to you as possible. When visiting your home I like to provide lots of playtime/walks, cuddles, and I’m a reader so a quiet companionship is always part of a stay as well. Taking care of pets is apart of my daily life.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hawthorne is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $26 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.

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.
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 Hawthorne 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 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.
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 Hawthorne 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 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.
