“Really appreciated Kasey’s flexibility when I needed someone to drop in on my dog Amber. Amber warmed up to her immediately at the meet and greet! I felt very reassured knowing someone responsible and dog-savvy was checking in on her on the day I was called into the city unexpectedly for work. Would absolutely book Kasey again for any future drop ins!”
“Mary was amazing. She took care of our two kitties and watered some of our plants while we were on vacation! Mary was attentive and her communication was great! 😊”
About: I have had dogs since I was young. I have experience ranging from small to large. I just adopted a lab mix and I honestly love walking dogs so much that I would love to walk yours as well. I would not walk the dogs at the same time unless we talk about it prior. I love dogs and walking and would love to help be a part of your pets life! I’m currently working part time and am available weekdays during the day for walks or at home visits! I currently work part time, normally in the mornings. I am available Monday-Wednesday, after 11 am and Thursday, Friday after 3 pm. Dog walking would help fill out my weekly schedule. Going slowly. I know dogs get scared when approached too fast. I would treat all dogs with patience, giving them the time to trust me. I would introduce treats and toys.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life and will happily give your pup the care she/he deserves on walks and visits. I would love to discuss your pet's needs and customize their care accordingly. I have a flexible schedule and can stop by your home for walks and playtime. Please send me a booking request and we can go from there for scheduling. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and routines, stay attentive to a dog’s behavior and surroundings during walks, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re with me.
“I can’t recommend Iliana enough! Her communication is impeccable, keeping me updated throughout the day with messages and adorable photos of my pups and chickens. It was such a relief to know my dogs were in good hands.”
“Needed someone for a last-minute drop in for the next day and Margaret willingly accepted. She was timely and send photos while there. Will definitely contact her again.”
“Barbara was very kind and sweet to my Daisy. She even bought her a new toy and played with her and send pictures everyday. My house was clean and her litter box was clean she was very well taken care of and I recommend her highly!”
“Ebony is fantastic and does not disappoint. Even though she wasn't feeling good, she still committed. She knows exactly how to warm up to your pets and took the time to spend quality time with each pet. My cats love her. I am so satisfied with her and definitely will have her again! Thank you Ebony!!!”

“Abbey was a dream to work with!! Would ten out of ten recommend her and absolutely work with her again :). Our cat Cyrus loved her immediately and she left us detailed updates and photos. She’s super nice, loved Cyrus so much, very prompt and awesome. Thanks again Abbey!!”
“Catherine was very friendly and laidback. I think my cats sensed her easygoing personality. My cats liked her as soon as she walked in. I am very happy to see my cats looking good and relaxed. Definitely will ask her for more cat sitting.”
About: I've been surrounded by and taken care of animals my entire life, and I want to be your new trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker! I have a standard poodle named Remy and maine coon cat named Bash at home, and they are my everything. I've fostered kittens (as young as 2.5 weeks old) for six years now and have been a petsitter for longer. I'm great with people and even better with cats and dogs. I want to keep your pets safe and happy, and you worry-free! I can administer medicine, trim nails, walk any size dog, clean, monitor urine and stool output, keep track of mood and general signs for concern, and I love sending cute update pictures so you know your pets are thriving! I just graduated with my master’s in occupational therapy and I’m studying for my boards, so my days are free and I’d love to sit for you or care for your pets however you need! I'm great at following directions and problem-solving, and I'll do whatever I can to make sure you're comfortable with me entering your home to care for your pets. I understand different types of collars, leashes, and equipment needed to guarantee a pet's safety. I am very aware of my surroundings and good at reading a pet's energy and potential reactivity. I've had animals my entire life, so closing the door quickly and not letting pets out is second nature to me. I know your pets are your family, and I will treat them as such!
About: I’ve been told I am the best pet sitter ever! I love animals with my whole heart and have so much fun meeting all the critters in my neighborhood! I am very flexible with my schedule. I work 8-4. I can stop by multiple times a day depending on how close you live to me. For walks 12-1pm Mon-Fri I will only be able to accept requests within a 20-minute driving radius of my job in Hyde Park, as I have an hour lunch break. I have a cat and will not be offering services that include taking your pet into my home. I will only be offering drop in visits and walks.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life! I have taken care of my own dogs and the dogs of family and friends for 10 years. I love playing with dogs so they get all their energy out! I have taken care of elderly dogs and dogs with special needs, so I know all the tricks for giving medications. I am currently on summer break from grad school so I can give all of your pets the love and attention they need! I am very flexible with my schedule currently. I stay aware of my surroundings and never take a dog off-leash. In my own home I keep doors closed, never risking a runaway animal. In clients homes I follow instructions closely and am sure to keep the owners updated. I send plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day and after every visit.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hughsonville
Samantha was absolutely wonderful at caring for my precious Ellie. She was punctual, responsible, and very attentive. This was my first time having someone other than family take care of Ellie, and I was a bit nervous. However, based on my experience with Samantha, all my concerns were alleviated. I would certainly recommend her without hesitation.
Emily showed us not only how much she cares for our boy Odin, but also that she is rooted in years of experience! Odin is a bit barky to new people and Emily was able to handle the situation with grace - so much so, that she had him at her feet at the end of the visit! She is prompt in all her communication. And being so kind to our whole family was so very appreciated. I would recommend Emily to any dog parent wanting whole, compassionate, and reliable care. 10/10 will definitely book again!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hughsonville is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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 1,722 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hughsonville. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hughsonville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
