This was our first Rover experience and Kendall was awesome!! We have a very senior cat so I was a bit nervous but all of her updates put us at ease! I came home to a very happy cat who was well-loved while we were away. So glad we found Kendall!

About: I have ten years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, gentle approach. I'm confident in dealing with a variety of both in house and on leash behaviors to keep the boarding experience as safe as it is fun. I focus on keeping dogs both mentally and physically engaged, helping prevent boredom and anxiety in new environments. Maintaining your pets daily routine is a high priority to keep them comfortable and safe. There is also an on site dog expert and who excels in easily picking up every detail to keep your pet happy and healthy. I keep a clean and organized environment to keep your pup out of anything they shouldn't be in. I also prioritize staying on top of messes to ensure your pets safety. I am home most of the day and can provide consistent, adequate supervision and care. I am only out of the house briefly from 7 AM to 11 AM; otherwise I am available to give your pets the love and care they deserve. My schedule allows me to maintain your pets routine and ensure they are not left alone for too long. I provide a safe, clean, and structured enviroment for every pet entrusted to my care. In my home, I keep spaces tidy, pet-proofed, and monitered to ensure your dogs safety. I am attentive to each pets needs, routines, and boundaries. I take great care to minimize stress and make sure your pup has an amazing time. When caring for pets in a cilents home, I respect your space and am sure to follow instructions closely. I prioritize safety at all times including proper leash handling, secure doors/gates, and constant awareness during walks and visits.

About: My family jokes that I was raised by animals. 🤣 I have had pets since I was born, and considered them my best friends. I have had jobs in dog grooming, some experience in training, volunteered at my local SPCA, currently an active volunteer for Angels To The Animals & even became a full time artist selling commissioned pet portraits! Everything about furry animals & waggy tails brings me immense joy and happiness. Animals calm my soul. Today, I have 3 of the most spoiled doggo’s out there. I narrate their thoughts, talk to them like they’re babies, and they are even insta-famous! They have their own bedroom, closet, dresser, mountains of toys, and an abundance of clothes/accessories. I truly do work hard so my dogs can have a better life. I have experience in housecleaning so I regularly entered people’s homes. Rest assured, I’ll leave your house the way I found it (maybe better if I see an animal mess that needs tending to). I’ll treat your home like my own. I have responsibilities Tuesday- Friday from noon- 1:00 however I’m available before or after. Ideally, I am looking for regular clients that consistently need someone to hang out with their fur babies. I would meet you and your fur baby, and get a lay of the land. If you need me to feed them, water them, give treats, I would just need to know where to access them. For cats, if you need me to clean the litter box, I would just need to know where the bags, & scooper are. Also where you’d like the waste disposed.

Trinity took this job last second over the Holliday. She took great care of our dogs and would let us know if anything happened. Seeing the pics daily I could tell how much our dogs enjoyed having her there to watch them and spend time with them.

About: I grew up on a farm, which has given me a deep understanding of the needs and desires of various animals. Throughout my life, I have taken care of a wide range of animals, and I have countless experiences cleaning, bathing, and feeding them. Additionally, my family has been fortunate to have a total of 7 house pets, including 3 dogs and 4 cats, throughout many years. This has further enhanced my knowledge and skills in providing quality care for animals. I'm available Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday after 11am. I intend on only offering my services in the month of July and ending it August 1st. Due to school I am unable to provide my services after that date. But I will continue to update my profile about my availability. When it comes to pet sitting, I prioritize the safety and happiness of the animals under my care. I maintain a watchful eye on them at all times, ensuring they are secure and content. I also make sure to engage them in playtime and walks whenever they are willing, paying close attention to their moods and needs. Furthermore, I am highly responsive to any questions you may have. I strive to provide prompt and thorough assistance, ensuring that you have peace of mind regarding your beloved pets

Ansley was so great. She took very good care of my pets while I was in the hospital. She went above and beyond. I will only use her in the future. My dog just loved her and the cat warmed up to her very quickly and she can be very finicky who she goes to. My pets will definitely miss her!

About: I have taken care of my grandparents dog since as long as I can remember. They have been labrador retrievers. I walked them, bathed them, and fed them since around 8 years old. I have also taken care of my girlfriend’s dogs which are yorkshire terriers. I got a dog of my own, prince, about three years ago, and he has been my best friend ever since! I also have a ton of experience meeting many new dogs and pet owners through the wag app ! I currently work as a soccer trainer for a youth program of my own, and am looking for more ways to make money while being a full time college student here in Houston. I am free weekdays and weekends whenever I am needed. I am online so my schedule is open 24/7. I care for them by providing the most warming welcome to all pets and pet parents. I make sure all suggestions or needs are satisfied and I am strictly working for the satisfaction of the pet parent and pet.

About: I love dogs of all breeds and sizes! I will treat your fur baby just like my own. We have two loving pups in our home who are quite spoiled! One of our pups has experienced health problems so I am comfortable with anything thrown my way, I can bet I’ve experienced it all. I grew up with many dogs in my home as a child and adult from dogs with high energy to those that love to lay all day. I love to play fetch with them, go on long walks and cuddle with them on the couch. I am home all day and take the dogs out to play regularly, we do not have a fenced in yard but it’s very spacious and quiet, just under an acre! Our dogs are allowed on furniture and enjoy many treats. I am very dependable & trustworthy. You can feel comfortable knowing your fur baby is safe with me. I currently work full time from home and am very attentive to my gut babies. We go out several times throughout the day for potty and play breaks. I have an acre of yard that is quietly lined with trees and two energetic pups to keep your dogs company! I’m open to crate trained dogs as well as those who are able to roam freely inside.

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, and they’ve always been a big part of my life. I understand how important it is to give them love, attention, and the right care whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just making them feel safe and happy. What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I treat every dog like family! I’m a college student home for the summer, and pet care fits perfectly into my routine right now. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time and energy to give your dog the attention they need. I’ve always loved being around animals, so taking care of them doesn’t feel like work, it’s something I truly enjoy! I’m here to help in whatever way I can. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow any routines the owner shares, like feeding times, walk schedules, or special needs, and keep their space clean and calm. I give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, and I always make sure they have fresh water, a cozy place to rest, and lots of love.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and absolutely love them and house/dog sat a lot when I was younger. I have 3 beautiful girls of my own that are spoiled rotten. Right now I have full availability. As a pet owner I understand the stress of finding someone to trust to not just look after your fur babies while you're away but also to love on them, play with them and comfort them until you return. I pay close attention to detail and will follow all of your instructions while sitting in your home. I will provide the best care and stick to any routines so your pets don't stress while you're away.

About: Hi, I live in lincolnton but work in Huntersville so I'm flexible with my availability. I moved here from northern California a little over 4 years ago and currently have very social cats and a golden retriever. My sister has her own pet sitting business back home, so animals have been a constant occurrence in our home and family. I'm a hairstylist so my schedule is very flexible. I've had dogs and cats my entire life, but love all animals. I understand your pet is a part of your family and don't like being away from you or being home alone. If you would like your cat or dog spoiled and forget that you're even gone send me a message! I currently have my own salon and work for myself so my schedule is flexible. I can always schedule clients around pet sitting to accommodate your pets! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in backyard. I can care for your animals in my house if they get along with other animals. I prefer to care for them in their own home if that's where they are most comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Iron Station on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 4,624 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Iron Station. 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 Iron Station 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Iron Station choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Iron Station with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Iron Station. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
