“Ali is the best!!! We will absolutely have her watch our kitties again! We have a very shy and very anxious guy and she won him over, it was so great knowing he trusted her. She also kept our 7 week old kitten busy and entertained! She's so kind, reliable, and she gave such great updates and pictures. So thankful to have found her 💓”
“Adazia is such a god send! I have a 9 and 16 year old pup as well as a cat. I was worried about me being gone 13 hrs a day during my clinical rotation and reached out to Adazia to see if she’d be interested in coming by 4 days a week to let the pups out. She has sent me updates and pics every day. Her consistency has made me feel much better about leaving the dogs so long!”
About: I've grown up with all kinds of animals from cats, to dogs, to guinea pigs, and from a pet owner myself, I know how stressful it can be leaving your baby at home. I'm here to help relieve that stress by going on walks together, to dropping in to say hello, whatever your furry baby needs! Pics to the owners free of charge 😉 I'm currently in between jobs, so I have lots of time to do whatever works for your fur child--rather that be night time, day time, week days or weekends. We have a fenced in backyard with no escape routes. I live in a hugely walkable neighborhood and am happy to take your dog to parks or whatever route they're used to.
About: I’ve helped family members take care of dogs by walking and bathing when needed. I’ve always loved being around dogs all my life as I grew up around them and worked in pet stores since 2022. I am currently working full time but the earliest i can stop by is 8 am and the latest being 9:30 at night if needed. I am comfortable with working with any restrictions required by owner, even if it means crating the animal, or any dieting the animal may have. I am also CPR certified through the American Red Cross, i can also provide proof of certification.
“I cannot say enough great things about the care Eleanor provided for our Grear Dane, Maggie. Our dog is often an excited goof ball with no sense of personal space, which had us a bit nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Well, all of my fears were unfounded because Eleanor was amazing! She went above and beyond with our girl, and we are so so grateful.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our cat. Lillian was communicative, prompt, thorough, and most importantly kind and playful with our cat. We will for sure be using her again in the future!”
About: I have experience caring for small dogs, large breeds, senior dogs, and puppies. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to older pets needing extra patience and attention. I’ve cared for breeds ranging from dachshunds to akitas and understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and routines. I’ll be doing pet care full-time while in mom mode, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets lots of attention, supervision, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I love creating a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you genuinely feel comfortable with. I keep my home relaxed, clean, and welcoming so pets can settle in and feel secure during their stay. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and individual needs, and I’ll always care for your pet with the same patience and attentiveness I would want for my own.
“I cannot recommend Lizzie highly enough! She took incredible care of my dog while I was out during the day, and I truly felt at ease knowing Derek was in such great hands. Lizzie took him out several times, ensuring he got plenty of exercise and attention. She is also punctual and reliable. It's clear that she genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets she looks after. Her warm and friendly personality made her the perfect fit. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to take care of your furry friend, Lizzie is the one! I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hermitage
Tyler was fantastic with our two pups. He was always on time and very responsive. He gave great feedback on how each visit went. He played with our pups to get some energy out which they need. Both of our dogs loved him and we super excited to see him. He even reached out about a nail we had sticking out of our deck that he was concerned could harm our pups paws and he offered to fix it for us. We will definitely use him again if we leave town. Highly recommend Tyler!
Carmen was one of the best dog sitters we have ever used on Rover. She sent thorough updates everyday and took great care of our dogs. We have a brand new puppy and Carmen went above and beyond and taught our puppy a few new tricks while she visited on the drop-ins. I think our dogs want us to leave the house more now so Carmen can come over to play more. 🙂
My little guy has really bad anxiety 😥 So do I leaving him for a extended period of time Angela helped him so much. She went the extra mile to keep him calm. He looked so happy in the report cards. I definitely made the right choice hiring her. You could see he was very glad to see her every time she came to care for him and hang out with him. I will definitely hire her again for future trips.
This was our first time leaving our dogs and depending entirely on drop-in visits while we were out of town, so having someone we could trust was a huge deal for us. Amber did a fantastic job caring for our dogs and made the entire experience stress-free. She was also very attentive and may have even helped tidy up a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch. She kept us informed, handled everything smoothly, and even administered medication without any issues. One of the biggest signs of approval from our dog Addison is that she doesn’t want people to leave, and she definitely gave Amber a hard time when it was time to go, which told us all we needed to know about how comfortable she felt with her. (Sorry, Amber!) We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and couldn’t be more grateful. It is such a relief knowing we have someone dependable, trustworthy, and caring that we can count on when we need help with our dogs. We will absolutely continue using Amber in the future.
Crystal was fantastic! She took great care of our pet and provided frequent updates, photos, and messages throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared and treated our pet like her own. Communication was excellent, and we always knew how things were going. We would absolutely book with Crystal again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
Hannah has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She is incredibly communicative, keeps us updated, and is always quick to respond. Managing three dogs is no small task, but she handles them with so much care and confidence. She is attentive to our specific requests and makes us feel completely at ease whenever we are away. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our dogs are in trustworthy hands. She is reliable, close by, and truly awesome at what she does. We will continue booking with her and highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
Lindsey was excellent! She provided great communication leading up to the sitting. Samson was so comfortable with Lindsey, and I loved receiving the text and pictures to let me know how settled & calm Samson was in her company. Samson loved his time with Lindsey and we are looking forward to booking with her again on our next visit!
Adazia did awesome with our pup. She was available very last minute! My app also didn't update my address when I did and accidentally took her to the wrong place and she was very understanding. She did so well with tonks!! We will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hermitage is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 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 4,142 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hermitage. 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.
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 Hermitage 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 Hermitage with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
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.
