“My poor Daisy girl got sick in her crate while we were at work. When Corey came over to let her out for her daily break, he took out all her bedding and went outside and sprayed it all off and cleaned her kennel and floor around it. I am so grateful he was able to take care of all of that while we are away at work! Thank you so much!”

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.

About: I have experience taking care of my own dog since I was 8. My mom got a dog when I was 14 whom I’ve also been taking care of. I specialized in puppies (+3 months old) and adult dogs. I am willing to take care of any type of dog, with any type of disability and requirement. Any added necessity for your pet will be met to the best of my ability. I am a part-time student who also has a part-time job, so my schedule is pretty flexible on my days off. I am also willing to make exceptions if needed, depending on the situation as long as I'm told days prior. Worst case scenario in which you need extra pet sitting time last minute, it can arrange. I’m currently working a part-time job and a part-time student having one morning class on Mondays (9:30-10:45am) and a morning and afternoon class on Wednesday (9:30-10:45am/5-6:45pm) but I am available for morning feeds, mid-day check-ins, and walks between hours of the day. Any extra days or weekend can be arranged after further conversation. Do tell me days beforehand. The way I take care of my pets is by cleaning their bathroom areas. Taking them outside for however long. And just making them feel seen in a way. I will definitely do anything in my power to give the best care to your fur babies. Any extra requirements or activities are completely welcome. I am here to serve your pet and fulfill their needs.

“This was our first time using Rover and we feel so lucky to have found Bonnie! She was very responsive to our frequent communication - answering questions, understanding when we needed to make a schedule change, and sharing updates and photos during her visits. Most importantly, she gave care and attention to our beloved Kiwi and for that we're very grateful! We highly recommend Bonnie and will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve always been a dog lover ever since I was a little girl. I look forward to getting to know your fur baby and ❤️ them as if they were my own. I truly enjoy each and every animal I’ve ever come across. I truly believe, Dogs are man’s best friend. Thank you for giving me the chance to watch over your baby while you’re gone. Currently, I’m a stay at home mom of a little one year-old and I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I can do drop ins and daily walks the morning between 8-12 and in the afternoons 4-7pm. I will play, walk, and tenderly love and care for your fur baby while you are gone. They will always have a friend in me.

About: I’m home all day/night pet sitting full time! Once I became a pet owner I never looked back. My fury child is my life. As a pet owner for 14 years I am very skillful in all areas of pet car from teeth brushing to tick picking. I have seen them grow old, loose their hearing, sight and ability to walk, but never once treated them like an old dog. I take seriously the need for touch by brushing their hair as often as possible and giving belly ribs when they turn on their backs for that special attention. My bed is their bed as they like to cuddle and feel safe and secure. I am a morning person and love feeling the brisk air as I watch pets take to the grass for their morning outing. I am home all day/night! I am available as early as 5:30am to receive your fury child into my home. I have plenty of space for them to play and I for one like to keep them in my site. Especially the little ones, they can get into so much. I have 4 dogs parks right in my community and each one is covered in grass. I love to walk, so your pet will never be taken off schedule. I have the best water-resistant floors in the event of any accidents, just wipe and go. I take work/life balance breaks so always free to play with your pets. I am currently home all day/night! I can feed twice a day or more, and I offer treats, walks and lots of play time. I can separate your pet, if need be. I have lots of sleeping space for those that are just tired little pups. My house is quiet, no children so no bother. I have a closed in balcony which provide a nice look out point for your pet. I have stuff animals and dog toys that I leave around the house for playmates as well.

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the animals I look after. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs rather than treating every visit the same. I’m patient, responsible, and love giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while their owners are away. 🐾 My schedule is flexible, and I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and spending quality time with pets throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention and care they need. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and supervised at all times. I’m happy to follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any special routines. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: **We may have lost our fur babies, but we certainly haven't lost our love for dogs!** ❤️🐾 We're Mike and Charity, a husband-and-wife team who believe that dogs aren't *just pets.* They're family. They're our best friends, our loyal companions, our four-legged children, and sometimes, the very best part of a long, difficult day. For years, our home was filled with the sounds of wagging tails, happy paws, squeaky toys, sloppy kisses, and the unconditional love that only a dog can give. First, there was our beautiful Golden Retriever, **Ally**, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in the spring of 2015. Then came our sweet yellow Labrador Retriever, **Izzy**, who blessed our lives with more than nine wonderful years of love, laughter, companionship, and unforgettable memories. We recently said our heartbreaking goodbye to Izzy in September 2026, and to say our hearts are still healing would be an understatement. **Our home is a little quieter these days. Our hearts are a little heavier. And there's a special kind of emptiness where four paws and a wagging tail used to be.** While we're not quite ready to welcome another dog into our family permanently, we know one thing for certain: **We still have an enormous amount of love to give.** And that's why we're here! We would be absolutely delighted to welcome your precious doggo into our home, even if it's just for a little while. Whether you're heading out of town, taking a vacation, or simply need someone you can trust to love and care for your furry family member, we'd be honored to help. We're not looking at this as simply pet sitting. We're looking at it as an opportunity to share the love that Ally and Izzy taught us so much about. **When your dog stays with us, they're not just a guest. They're family.** That means plenty of cuddles, belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, conversations (yes, we absolutely talk to dogs!), hugs, and an unlimited supply of nose boops. And if your pup prefers a quiet afternoon curled up beside us, that's perfectly wonderful, too. We understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved companion in someone else's care. We've been those pet parents ourselves. We know the worry, the questions, and the desire to know that your baby is safe, comfortable, happy, and genuinely loved while you're away. **We'll treat your dog with the same tenderness, patience, attention, and affection that we gave Ally and Izzy.** We'll respect their routines, their personalities, their needs, and all the little quirks that make them uniquely yours. Perhaps the greatest gift our girls left us was the understanding that love doesn't end when we say goodbye. It simply finds new ways to be shared. And maybe, just maybe, having a few more happy paws, wet noses, and wagging tails visiting our home will help heal two hearts that miss their girls terribly. **Your dog gets a loving home away from home. We get the joy of sharing our love with another furry friend. And everybody gets unlimited boops!** 🐶❤️ We can't wait to meet your best friend! **With love, belly rubs, and a whole lot of puppy kisses,** **Mike & Charity** 🐾 *In loving memory of Ally & Izzy — forever our girls, forever in our hearts.* One of the wonderful things about our current schedules is that we have plenty of time to devote to your furry family member! Between the two of us, at least one of us is typically home throughout the day, so your pup will have lots of companionship, attention, and love. We're not the kind of pet parents who believe a dog should spend the day alone waiting for someone to come home. We enjoy having a four-legged companion nearby, whether we're relaxing, watching TV, working around the house, or heading outside for some fresh air. We'll follow your dog's regular feeding, walking, potty, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. Our primary time away together is typically Sunday mornings for church, and we'll always communicate about scheduling in advance. Your dog won't just fit into our routine. We'll happily make them part of our day! Having raised and loved two wonderful fur babies of our own, we understand that trusting someone else with your dog is a BIG deal. We don't take that responsibility lightly! Our home is a place where dogs are treated like family, not simply boarded as guests. We offer a comfortable, loving environment with plenty of attention, companionship, and affection. Since we're currently without pets of our own, your pup won't have to compete with our resident dogs for attention! We respect every dog's individual needs, personality, and comfort level. Some dogs want to cuddle right beside you, while others prefer their own quiet space. We're happy to accommodate both! We'll carefully follow your instructions regarding food, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and other special needs. If your dog is crate-trained and needs their crate for comfort or safety, we're happy to accommodate that with advance arrangements. We'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your precious pup is being loved and cared for. Our philosophy is simple: **We care for your dog the way we always wanted someone to care for ours.**

Corey was amazing with my Kitties. I have three cats, a 9 year old cat who takes a pill daily, and two young kittens who are scared of noises, and the younger one who is scared of everything. By the 7th day he was playing with the youngest. He was always on time, very clean, and caring with my cats. I will definitley book with him again and I recommend him to anyone with a pet.

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!

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

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Inverness

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Inverness is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $39 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 1,077 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Inverness. 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 Inverness. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
