About: I have taken care of my own animals and have helped out others as well! My love for animals is so high and I find a lot of joy in it! My work schedule is pretty flexible and I have lots of free time! I am usually free anytime after 11 tuesday-thursday, and every other day at anytime! I work well with any needs a family gives me! I love having a set list that the owner has and wants me to do just so the pup feels comfortable and not off schedule!
“Brianna is our favorite cat sitter! She is wonderful with the kitties and leaves detailed notes after each visit (and pictures!) which we so appreciate when we're away.”
About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m a special education teacher who has summers off, and I’m looking for a fun way to spend my time out in the community doing something I love—caring for animals! As a lifelong animal lover and dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I also love cats and am comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re gone. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend this summer! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I can’t wait to meet your pets! 🐶🐱💕 During July, I teach summer school, so I’m available anytime after 12 PM for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. In August, my schedule becomes much more flexible, allowing for additional daytime availability. Once the school year begins, I’ll primarily be available on weekends and for evening/late-night care. As a teacher and animal lover, I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I treat every pet as if they were my own! In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I know consistency is important for pets, so I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. In my home, pets receive a safe, clean, and loving environment. I have experience with both dogs and cats and understand that every animal has different needs and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m happy to provide the care that makes them feel most comfortable
“This is our second time using Cindy...she is amazing! After a 13 hour travel day, it was great coming home to clean litter boxes and our cats that have been very well cared for! You can't put a price on peace of mind, and we won't hesitate to use her again!”
“Ramsey did an excellent job caring for my two cats. I’d trust them with her any time. Came home to find littler boxes and food bowls clean. I can tell she played with the cats during the drop in visits. Thanks, Ramsey!”
“Our cats were so happy when we returned from our trip! Thank you so much Shannon for your sweetness, professionalism, and fantastic care for our two kitties. They were still looking for you when we got home, to play!”
About: I'm very dependable and energetic. I have lots of experience and am very responsible. I take good care of things not just the pets. I'm a good communicator. I treat all pets as if they were my own. I recently graduated from Lake Country Lutheran HS and finished my first year of College in AZ. Currently taking a year off so I have plenty to take care of your pets. Available Monday-Wednesday during the week and weekends. I will come play, exercise, feed, walk, keep your furry pet company and any other things your pet requires. I have a car to easily get there and take care of your pet.
“Deedee is an absolute god send. Our German shepherd can be intimidating but luckily with all of her experience, Deedee has had zero issues with him. She takes the time to understand your dog and put your mind to ease. I only wish we found her a lot sooner!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life! Most have been middle size dogs - lab mixes, etc. I have experience with taking care of all size of pets though.I also walked dogs at a local humane society until I adopted my own bundle of joy! I have dog sat for all different sizes and types of dogs and genuinely enjoy being around them. Like I said above - I sometimes prefer dogs over people haha! I would love to get back into walking and socializing dogs looking for good homes! I love being able to help them find new homes! I just have a connection with dogs and love being around them! I currently work during the day but am free nights and weekends and would love to meet your member(s) of the family! :)
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. My pet care experience started in high school while babysitting for a family who had a dog. They would often ask me to walk and help care for their dog while watching the kids, which helped me become comfortable handling dogs of different personalities and routines. I’ve also completed multiple overnight stays and extended pet sitting jobs where I cared for pets in their homes, making sure they stayed happy, safe, and on schedule while their owners were away. More recently, I got my first dog of my own and have been fully responsible for his daily care, training, exercise, and routine while balancing school and work. Having my own dog has given me even more hands on experience and strengthened my understanding of the patience, consistency, and attention pets need every day. I care for a dog with anxiety who requires special medication and extra attention. This experience has made me very flexible, patient, and attentive to detail. I’m used to closely monitoring behavior and making sure his routine, comfort, and needs are always taken care of. My dog has access to his crate, bed, or can sleep upstairs with me, whichever makes him most comfortable. His crate is his safe space where he likes to relax and decompress. Safety is very important to me. Since our yard is not fenced, my dog is always supervised outside and kept on a leash. I also stay alert to wildlife in the area to keep him safe, since he’s a small dog. When caring for another person’s pet, I ask for written care instructions and prefer to meet the dog beforehand so both the pet and I feel comfortable during the transition.
“Bella took care of Lucina on very short notice, and kept her happy, fed, and entertained as best as a drop in visit could do. She would be my first choice if I ever need a cat sitter again and I'd recommend her to anyone!”
“Natalie did great with our dog for drop in visits. She took great care of her! It was our first time using this app, and she was patient with us while we adjusted to it. I would book her again in the future.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and taken care of dogs since I was a very young girl. Starting at the age of 9, I used to watch my neighbors dogs when they’d go out of town. Now, I often dog sit and board my coworkers dogs when needed. My deep love for dogs has driven me to always find a way to care and connect with them. I am free for the summertime to give your pets plenty of love and care all day! With enough notice, I can prepare to board your pets in whatever way you need. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly dogs to give your dog plenty of space and friends to play with. There are plenty of toys and beds that my dogs don’t use and I also have 2 open crates if your dog needs as well.
“Brenna was amazing. My shy and cautious cat accepted her right away. She went above and beyond my expectations, and I highly recommend her. She was communicative and punctual. She provided pictures and updates and even took care of my plants!”

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 July 2026, there are 2,148 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ixonia. 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 Ixonia 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 Ixonia. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
