“Katie did a fantastic job with my two young kitties. Updates and pictures about visits were always positive and comforting to me. My kitties are not accustomed to strangers and can be quite the hiders. Katie always seemed to find them to get pictures. I would definitely recommend Katie for your pet sitting needs. I will also use her for any upcoming visits. Thanks Katie”
“This is the 2nd time Sophia has watched my cat while I was away on a trip and she is phenomenal. She sends lots of pictures and specific updates. When I come home I can always tell my cat has been well cared for! I highly recommend booking her for your pet care needs 😊”
“We highly recommend Samantha for any of your pet sitting needs. She recently watched our 10 year old rescue cat. She made two visits daily and not only did the necessary requirements, she spent a lot of quality time petting and bonding with him. This was the first time we have returned home from a trip not to find him the least bit skittish or anxious. We are pleased to have found his “Aunt Sam” and will continue to use her services. She does the little things to make it the perfect experience. A+++ services.”
“Carol truly loves dogs and spent extra time with mine -- she's great! She even gave me/my dogs extra pee pads she had in case they needed them. She sent me photos and detailed notes during every appointment with my dogs. If she's available, I will definitely seek her out in the future for spending time with my fur babies!”
“Madi is wonderful with Kami and even though she had a prior commitment she was still able to drop in on her when I decided to just go for the day instead of the whole weekend. We will be booking her again and again and again.”
“Such a blessing to have Robert watch our dog Kuma. First time using the service and I hope to get Robert every time! He is on time, great communication and my furry baby was fed and loved on! Thank you thank you thank you Robert!”
“Thank you for taking care of my 2 fur babies! I love the pics you sent! I will definitely book again when in need your great service! Nisha I appreciated the peace of mind that I had knowing you were taking care of them!”
“Sandy was hired for a full week to do drop ins for my girl Kitty and she was there everyday and on time. She spend the full 30 minutes with Kitty, some days even a little longer. She made sure Kitty had all her food and water she needed and she gave her lots of lovin and even got Kitty to play (she never plays anymore). I will absolutely hire Sandy in the future”
“Ashley took care of my two cats and did a fantastic job. I will use her again. We had to leave the state on short notice due to family health issues and she stepped up and took care of my cats. She even sent me pictures and updates every day. Thanks Ashley.”
About: Just an all around animal lover! Patient, understanding and will lead with confidence so your dogs feel structured and safe. You can be at ease knowing that safety for your pet is my highest priority and I will treat them as my own! I work online from home and set my own schedule so I am available all week. I am available to walk your neighborhood, my neighborhood is great or I love to walk trails and beach :) I develop a relationship with each dog based on trust and an understanding of their individuality and personality. I allow dogs to be dogs within the realm of what is appropriate and they seem to appreciate my confident and casual style of leadership.
About: Hi! My name is Shari Gill. I've been around dogs my entire life. Since age 18, I've taken in multiple rescue dogs and cats, many of which have been significantly abused and neglected. I am home full-time and have an extremely flexible schedule. I'm looking for a dog that needs love, attention, play time, and exercise as needed. I live in a rural area conducive for long walks. Additionally, I have a large fenced in yard for extra play and time to run. I'm available for dog walking, visits to your home, and/or one night boarding at my home. I am a mature, reliable, and flexible caregiver that will love your pet as if they were my own. If you think I may be a good match, please consider me for the position. I’m currently a substitute teacher and spend much of my time walking and caring for our two dogs and two cats. I have more love to give to your pet. I have experience in caring for dogs and cats in both my home and client homes. I’m able to assist with walks, feedings, medications, or just providing lots of attention!
About: I approach all walks of life with an open heart and love. Because of this I believe all critters seek out my affections and makes for fun interactions. I am currently at a cross road in life and looking for new situations that are more fulfilling. I absolutely enjoy spending my time with four legged friends. I have a mostly private fenced in yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I also can provide crates and segregated spots for our friends that need their own space or maybe a little to shy.
“We had a great experience with Andrea. She was incredibly thorough, detail-oriented, and clearly took the time to make sure everything was handled exactly how we like it. Most importantly, Suma really enjoyed her and had a great time playing. She was always prompt and communicative, sending lots of updates, photos, and messages during her visits—which I know many pet owners will really appreciate. You can tell she genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort. She’s newer to Rover, but you wouldn’t know it from the level of care and professionalism she brings. We’d absolutely book her again!”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I work at a dog boarding kennel currently and have worked at the animal shelter where I cared for all of the strays and helped them try to find new homes and reunited lost pets with their families! I don’t feel a family is complete without a pet as I have always had one (or more)! They are family 💖 I work at a boarding kennel part time and am able to care for pets mornings before work for potty break and evenings after work for potty breaks and play time. Morning potty breaks and evening potty breaks and play time on my days off I ask for owners to have written instructions for the specific care for each pet so that I may make sure their pet/pets are taken care of as if their owners had never left! Routine is a big deal for pets and owners!
About: I’ve had multiple pets my entire life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I’ve also pet sat and walked dogs for my neighbors and friends for many years. I’m very reliable, always on time, and great at following detailed instructions, so your pet’s routine stays the same while you’re away. I truly care about how your animal is feeling and what they need, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I recently moved back home, and pet sitting is now my full-time focus! I’m active, dependable, and love spending time with animals. My priority is always your pet’s comfort, routine, and happiness. With open availability, I can be flexible and accommodate your pet’s specific needs, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else their pet needs. During walks, I make sure dogs get plenty of attention and a chance to burn off some energy. While house sitting, I spend time with pets so they have company and don’t feel lonely while their owner is away. I truly want pets to feel safe, happy, and cared for the whole time I’m with them.

It just so happens that I'm bi-lingual speaking fluent in both English and Sheltie. We all shared sloppy kisses and hugs when we got back yesterday, and Bunny, Layla, Mr. Wiggles, Crissy and Kenzie told me all about their playdates with Maddie. Overall consensus was "Mommy, don't you have someplace far away to go so Maddie can come back?". They loved Maddie and were rather disappointed when the door opened for the third time that it was 'me' and not Maddie again. My opinion - Maddie is very vibrant and LOVES dogs. She is a perfect au pair/nanny for my little munchkins and I would absolutely request her for any future puppy-sitting needs that arise. Jean and John Turner

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Inverness on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,095 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Inverness. 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 Inverness 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 Inverness. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
