About: I have 1 to 1½ years of experience working in veterinary and kennel environments, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands when you’re away. I have two dogs of my own, and I would treat your dog with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. I know it can be stressful when you’re traveling, working long hours, or simply need an extra set of hands to help care for your furry family members. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time and will soon be attending school part-time as well. Despite my schedule, I have flexibility throughout the week and am fully available on weekends. I understand that pet owners often need reliable care while working, traveling, or managing busy schedules, and I am committed to providing dependable care when you need an extra helping hand Creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment is very important to me. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and care so they can feel secure while their owners are away. To help build trust and ensure the best experience for everyone, I prefer to meet your dog before the first walk or pet-sitting visit. This allows me to get to know their personality, routine, and comfort level, while also helping your pet become familiar with me. Every dog is different, and taking the time to establish trust beforehand helps create a safe and positive environment for both your pet and myself.
About: Need an extra dog mom? I'm your gal! With over 12 years of experience watching over others animals, I've done and seen almost all of it. (Though, there are some things that still surprise me every now and again!) Big or small, I've cared for them all! I do drop in visits, walking, baths, nail trims, and in home boarding for dogs 50lbs or less. Not that I don't love gentle giants, they just take up a lot of space! I also have two sisters who are vet techs so if I need them for any reason they are on stand by. Anyways, if you're in need of an extra hand during the day or an overnight stay, please reach out! I'm home all day every day so my schedule is pretty open. If I'm doing drop in visits I prefer going around noon but if I need too, i will make exceptions and go earlier or later depending on what my pet parents need. When doing overnight boarding I make sure everyone is fed, watered, and comfortable. For dogs, I make sure they have plenty of opportunities to go on walks and go potty. I have a fenced in yard where they can roam freely for outside time (supervised of course) When doing inhome visits, I pretty much implement the same care making sure to follow instructions left by the pet parents if applicable.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hitchcock is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 1,283 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hitchcock. 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.

- 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.
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.
