“Catherine was fantastic! She checked in on my dogs at the agreed upon time, gave an update of potty breaks, took pictures of the dogs at play with her, and my dogs seem so happy. Catherine did an outstanding job taking care of my dogs and put my mind at ease knowing they were being checked on with care”
“Chris was a breath of fresh air!!!! I've had some issues with college students, so to see stability, down to earth, maturity was comforting. She clearly loved my Addi girl when she came to meet her. She sent me pictures, and Addi was tuckered out from playing, which is a good sign! Chris will become a staple for us - I completely trust and feel comfortable with her taking care of our girl”
“Natalie took great care of my kitties while I was gone, including giving medication to one. I got pictures after each of her visits, which was nice. Everything, and everyone, was in good shape when I got home. It's nice to know there's someone I can trust to take care of them when I'm gone.”
“Alyssa did an amazing job with Lola. This was our first time using Rover so I was nervous but Alyssa gave me reassurance and helped me feel comfortable. Lola enjoyed her time with her and will definitely be booking with Alyssa again!”
“Estefani is the best! She was soooo sweet with my senior kitty. She is a great communicator and sent lovely updates each day. I felt so much better knowing she was looking after my cat. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: Neighbors and friends/family have trusted me with their fur-family members and I have cared for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have also aided my own doggo through a seizure and helped transport him to the ER. I am currently a full time college student, however, I have many breaks and a flexible schedule that would be perfectly occupied by caring for your furry friend! I will always follow provided directions carefully and closely in regards to your fur-family member and will contact you beforehand if I have any questions/concerns. All in all, I treat every animal I come across as my very own because I know that’s how I would want my own doggo to be treated <3
About: I have taken care of pets for many years now for relatives, neighbors, and friends. It is something I enjoy to do when my schedule is open enough to do so! I am providing stop in, walking, day to day, and overnight care for pets. This includes regular activities like walking, playing, potty, feeding, car rides, cuddles, all included in the set price. I can also bathe the pets for an additional fee. I currently work full time my work day is typically split in half. Giving me the perfect timestamps throughout the day to check in on the pets. I work only in the Harrisonburg area so I am all around town. I am a local to Harrisonburg and know all the dog-friendly spots! Pet care fits into my daily schedule as I have always had pets until college, I am use to fixing my schedule around them, as pets are like children. I work short shifts where I drive to different clients all day, giving me many breaks throughout the day to spend time with the pets! I am a very neat and righty person. As I work with elderly patients, I am not afraid of bacteria or most things! I believe I am trustworthy for pet sitting as I have extensive experience in caring for humans.
About: I’ve had a cat/s since I was a kid, harness trained my youngest Thor when he was a tiny kitten & give 2 of my other cats special medicines. If you are wanting help harness training your kitten or giving them medicine I can help! I run my own business here in Harrisonburg & can be flexible during the day/weekends depending on time as I pick up business. Sometimes bwt my business sessions I go home to check in on my cats so I’d be happy to do the same for you! I know my 4 cats like their litter boxes clean so if even scooping your cat’s box/changing it out can help make a difference I understand. Let me know at least 3 days in advance. My 4 cats are territorial so when I’m home they are often either on my screened in porch & separate rooms in the house. At the moment I can’t take care of any additional cats at my house however I can check in on yours at your place when needed.
“Katie is the best! She relieved my stress over finding someone who could administer a daily pill to my cat, and she immediately put me at ease. Katie is very pleasant and professional, and her love of animals is very genuine. Most importantly, my cat bonded with her! I also loved her updates and pictures from every visit and knowing Cubby was in good and caring hands.”
“Yanya did a great job caring for and playing with Maggie Mae. She was very patient and caring. When she noticed that Maggie had an injury she called me immediately and waited for instructions.”
“Abigail did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats. She followed all our directions and adapted to one of our cats not wanting to come out to eat. She spent time getting to know them and played with Lavender, who doesn’t always want to play. I highly recommend her to care for your animals, she will do a great job!”
“Samantha is the best. She is so caring to our babies and detail-oriented. Our family is so happy to have found her and plan on utilizing her drop in services as much as she allows us to!”
About: Have had dogs in the house and taken care of dogs since I was little, including small to large dogs, low-energy and high-energy, low-maintenance and high-maintenance. I have experience with senior dogs as well as low-mobility dogs. Current college student, I am free most days and nights. My schedule is quite flexible at the moment, so I can always work with you to find the best time. I have a car, so travel to and from your house to care for your dog(s) is not an issue. I am comfortable with any and all dogs, whether they require lots of care and attention or not.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Hinton on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 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 .

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 Hinton 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.

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.
