About: I have years of personal experience caring for my own fur babies, as well as experience working in an emergency vet. I am comfortable handling pets who need a little extra TLC due to their health or personality, and nothing makes me happier than giving owners the assurance that their fur family is in good hands💜 I currently have two cats, Dobby and Chai, and I have experience with all ages of pets :) I can care for exotic pets as well (I personally have several invertebrates as well as a blue tongue skink and an African house snake!) I do work full time, so I am not currently able to provide 24/7 services. I currently work overnight (usually Monday and Thursday) but also work Saturday during the day almost every week as well. Please reach out to me with any questions regarding my schedule and how I can best accommodate your babies! I will follow any and all instructions left for me to the letter, as I would want someone to do the same for my pets.
“Shannon is not only a pet sitter. She gets to know you and your pets before even starting!! She became a friend and made me feel so comfortable while I was away!! Thanks Shannon :)”
About: With over 30 years of unwavering dedication, I am a seasoned pet care provider passionate about fostering a loving and secure environment for your furry, feathery, and even unconventional companions. From dogs and cats to a diverse array of birds, cows, and yes, even skunks, I've embraced every unique challenge with genuine care and commitment. Safety is my top priority, ensuring your pets thrive under my watchful eye. As a compassionate animal lover, I understand the importance of tailoring care to individual needs. I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a devoted listener, ready to accommodate your pet's preferences and your concerns. Trust me to provide the utmost care, flexibility, and a nurturing environment for your beloved pets. The ability to set my own work schedule provides a tailored approach to caring for pets. With the flexibility to adjust my hours, I can meet their specific needs, including feeding, walks, and playtime. Breaks throughout the day allow for regular check-ins, addressing any emergencies promptly. This personalized care not only reduces stress for pets but also eliminates the need for external pet services. The freedom to be actively involved in their daily lives ensures a comfortable routine, fostering a strong bond and peace of mind for both me and your pets. In caring for pets, I extend my services both within my own home and at clients' residences, ensuring a comprehensive and attentive approach. At my home, I provide a range of services such as bathing, meticulous medication distribution, and regular walks tailored to the specific needs of each pet. I create a comfortable and loving environment, prioritizing their well-being. Additionally, when caring for pets in clients' homes, I extend the same level of dedication. This includes administering medications with precision, offering bathing services for hygiene, and taking dogs for invigorating walks. The goal is to mirror the care and routine they are accustomed to, whether in their familiar home environment or within my own space, ensuring a seamless and positive experience for both the pets and their owners.

“I recently had the pleasure of having Ashley drop in to watch my dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with care and expertise. My dogs took to her immediately, which is a great sign since they can be a bit picky with new people. Ashley was attentive to their needs, making sure they were fed, walked, and given plenty of playtime and affection. She also kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Ashley’s professionalism and warm personality made the whole experience seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”
About: I have loved pets since I was very young. I used to take care of my brother's dog and my friends. Whenever I could, I would visit my friends to be with their dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a lot of patience with hyper pets! I am currently a teacher, so I can work Mon-Fri after 4 and on the weekends any time. During the summer and holidays, I am more flexible. I make sure that if the dog or cat needs to go out to potty, I take them out. I also walk the dogs/cats and play with them as I keep them company. I try to make sure they are safe and happy! I am not allergic to any pets.
About: I've owned and cared for animals my entire life. From guinea pigs and dogs and cats to horses. Your pet's care, comfort and safety will always be my first priority. I am recently retired so I am readily available to help take care of your fur baby. I am available days, nights and most weekends. At my house I have a fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. At your house I'll follow your rules and guidance for your pet's comfort and safety
About: I'm a true animal person, and my home proves it. Sir Rocco, my 5-year-old Lab, is my shadow, and our three cats, Nala, Nico and Goldie, keep things lively. My favorite part of caring for pets is getting to know their little personalities: the dog who has to sniff every mailbox, or the cat who pretends not to care but always ends up in your lap. A while back I took in a scared, semi-feral kitten. It took time, gentle hands, and a lot of patience before he let me hold him, and now he follows me around the house. That's how I approach every pet. I let them warm up at their own pace, and I never rush a nervous one. I've cared for pets at every stage of life. I love the silly, curious energy of puppies, and I'm happy to reinforce their potty routine and good habits while you're away. Older dogs have a special place in my heart too. I'm happy to slow down for their pace, keep them comfortable, and give them extra love. I'm also experienced giving medications, whether it's a pill tucked into a treat or a set schedule, so you can trust your pet won't miss a dose. When I'm with your pet, they get my full attention. That means real walks, belly rubs, fetch, cuddles, whatever makes them happy. I'll keep their routine just the way you like it and send you photos so you can see them enjoying their day. I want you to come home to a happy, well-loved pet and feel completely at ease while you're gone. My schedule is flexible, which means I can work around what you and your pet needs instead of the other way around. Whether you need regular walks during the week, drop-in visits while you're at work, or someone to stay with your pet while you travel, just send me a message and we'll find times that work. I always give your pet unhurried, focused time, and I'll do my best to help with last-minute requests too. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I treat your home like it's my own: I follow your house rules, keep things tidy, and always lock up and double-check doors and gates before I leave. On walks, your dog stays leashed and close, and I keep an eye out for other dogs, hot pavement, and anything they shouldn't eat. At our Meet & Greet, I'll get your vet's info and an emergency contact so I'm prepared for anything. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind always come first.
“Kennedy swooped in last minute when we needed a sitter during the holidays AND we had a sick kitty ~~~~ four kitties total! So grateful to find her right before we had to leave!”
“Thank you Amber for doing amazing Job with Chloe. She was well loved and we know you took great care with her and thanks for doing the extras in our home! I would recommend using her. She’s a fantastic dog sitter! Jim Bechtel”
“Isabella took great care of my two cats! One of my cats has a number of medical issues and Isabella was comfortable administering the medications and communicative about any challenges she ran into or concerns she had. I felt confident being away, knowing she was watching my girls. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: With years of hands on experience in animal care, I’ve had the privilege of volunteering at both wildlife sanctuaries and the SPCA, where I worked with a wide variety of animals in need. My background includes caring for pets of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to senior companions, as well as animals with medical conditions and special needs. I’m deeply committed to providing patient, compassionate, and attentive care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after, no matter their age or condition. I currently have a full time job as an elementary paraprofessional. I am there from 7:30am-3pm Monday-Friday. I am happy to provide pet care whenever you need it. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute help, I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your schedule. Your pet’s comfort and well being are my top priorities, and I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. I provide loving, reliable care for pets in the comfort of their own home or while out on walks. Whether it's feeding, playtime, administering medication, or just keeping them company, I follow your pet’s routine to help them feel safe and stress free. During walks, I make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need, always keeping their safety and happiness as my top priority.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Inwood is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 2,822 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Inwood. 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 Inwood. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
