“I cannot recommend Shyann enough! I had to make a last-minute booking, and they completely exceeded my expectations. Even with the short notice, they insisted on doing a meet-and-greet to make sure my dog was comfortable and that all instructions were clear—a level of professionalism and care I truly didn't expect given the tight timeline. They are reliable, incredibly sweet with my pup, and provided fantastic updates. It is such a relief to find someone so dependable and accommodating. I will absolutely be booking again!”
About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember; from dog sitting for families in my community to working professionally in a veterinary office for three years as a veterinary technician and kennel assistant. In that role, I helped with pets that were boarded whether it was feeding, exercising, monitoring, or just caring and loving for them. My role also included administering medications and ensuring each animal was comfortable, healthy, and well cared for 100% of the time. Working in a veterinary setting taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, respond calmly in unexpected situations, and provide compassionate care tailored to each pet's needs. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, an extended period of care, or extra patience and attention, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and dedication that I do my own two dogs. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and in caring hands. I’m currently in summer training for college sports as well as a few other various commitments, but I will do my best to accommodate the care needed for your pet! I will follow directions for caring for pets in their homes to a tee with close attention, and ask questions when not sure. Since I have 2 dogs of my own, I unfortunately cannot care for pets in my home.
“This was our first time having Cassidy come take care of our dog who has high anxiety and chronic medical issues that require daily medications. She took such great care of him, was very accommodating to all of our needs and our dog's needs! Her communication with us was amazing, we received pictures and updates every visit. We will definitely be asking if she can come again in the future! We would highly recommend her!”
“Audrey always sends pictures when she does a drop-in for us, which is so appreciative. She’s also very responsive and communicative in a very timely manner. We love her, and that’s why we continue having her as our go-to person!”
“Alyssa did a great job dropping in on our 4 cats while we were away for 2 weeks. We felt comfortable that they were being well tended to. We appreciated the daily updates and photos!”
“Jyllian was absolutely amazing as my cat sitter. I was away on an extended trip and was nervous about having to leave my cat for that long. She went above and beyond with updating me and provided very detailed summaries each day along with so many pictures which showed how much love she put into caring for my cat. Not only that, but she is a vet tech so that made me feel even more comfortable in case something went wrong. She truly has the biggest heart for animals and I would very easily recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much, Jyllian!!!!”
“Diana was wonderful with our two German shepherds. We went on a day trip and she visited our home twice to let the dogs out and make sure they got exercise. It was a relief to know that the older one got attention and the young (anxious) one didn't miss his dad too much!”
“Abby is awesome! She had some big shoes to fill since we had such great sitters in Baltimore, and so far she has proven herself to be warm and reliable. Bruno has warmed up to her and she stays in contact to be sure she is doing what she needs to to keep him happy and healthy.”
“Brandy is amazing! I highly recommend her help. She was so friendly, prompt and responsive and clearly cares about and is a natural with animals. I could tell my cats were in very good hands. Thanks again, Brandy!”
“I am so thankful for Beth! She was quick to respond and took great care of my dogs in a last minute booking. She sent pictures and gave a great update for how the visit went. I will definitely be using her in the future when I need a drop in visit!”
“I posted a review after our first experience with Susan, but I just feel I have to do another one. She is FANTASTIC. I reached out last minute and she was so flexible, kind and understanding about it. She truly caters around your dog’s needs and takes the best pictures, love having her for my baby Rigs! ❤️”
“Siyani helped us so much by being Bella's personal buddy while we hosted a function at our home! Bella still gets overstimulated with a lot of guests at our house and having Siyani walk her around, play with her, and help her get water when needed was an amazing help! Thank you so much! 💓”
“Karla is absolutely fantastic! She’s extremely reliable, flexible, and always willing to help on short notice. I never have to worry when she’s caring for my dogs. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Hershey is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hershey
Brandy noticed that the house seemed hot, checked the thermostat, and contacted me to let me know we might have a problem with our hvac system. She checked a few things for us, and it became clear the system was broken. I was able to call a repair service and set up an appointment for a repairman to come out the afternoon we arrived home. We appreciate her attention to detail!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Maria!! Having two pit bulls can be daunting to some and I am always apprehensive when leaving my pups for an extended period of time. Not everyone understands the stigma behind the bully breed so it is always a huge source of anxiety for me when I travel. She went FAR above and beyond to communicate with me and send pictures and videos of my babies daily. She instantly put me at ease and my puppies absolutely adore her. I will recommend her forever and be a lifelong rover customer with her🥰

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Hershey on Rover is $23.31 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,944 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hershey. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hershey stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Hershey. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
