“My Doberman pup was immediately comfortable with Ciera. She was professional, confident, and showed a true love of animals. We look forward to having Ciera spend more time with our pup! ?”
About: I have always been a pet lover, but my soft spot is definitely for dogs! I have experience at dog daycares and boarding facilities and sanctuaries/rescues. I am CPR certified. I have experience and patience with senior dogs, they deserve all the love too! I am currently looking to becoming a full time pet care specialist, I want to build a clientele here and build relationships with new dogs. A few things factor into this. Most importantly for me is knowing and understanding the pets current routine, following all instructions and any precautions-for pets safety and my own, then updating owner about stay/walk/visit.
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.
About: I can not remember a time in my life when I did not have dogs or cat. I currently have a senior dog and a new puppy. They have become part of the family, especially now that both my sons have moved out. I have had the same job for 16 years in the medical field. Therefore, I am a very reliable and conscientious worker. I enjoy walks with my dogs and they get all the love, attention and pampering I can give them. I would do the same for your beloved pet. I know how much they mean to you, since I feel the exact same way. I have cared for many pet in my 54 years. From senior pets, puppies and those with medical issues. I have a very flexible schedule. I have been a respiratory therapist for over thirty years
“Michelle is everything I was hoping to find AND MORE! She is absolutely committed to making sure my old guy is cared for beyond her drop-ins. I’m so grateful to have her understanding of my dogs elderly ways. It was a relief to find her with her expertise.”
“Amber did a great job taking care of our 2 cats. She was friendly, organized and on-schedule each day. Our guys really appreciate having human interaction each day. She is very experienced with animals from cats and dogs to farm animals. Thanks Amber!”
“Very attentive! She did a great job with our kitty and made an effort to play every day (even when she didn't want to bc she's a cat, of course). She left us pictures every day, which we really liked, too! Will hire again for any future needs we have, and I would recommend her to any family or friend!”
About: As long as I can remember I’ve taken care of pets of my own and others. From dogs and cats to lizards and birds, I’ve learned a lot from years of animals being by my side. That’s why from dog walks to overnight stays, your pets are in safe, loving hands-24/7, 365 days a year. I have plenty of free time to keep any pets enriched and well cared for when you cannot. Life can be busy but I like to spend time making others happy, especially animals! I live with a large family and with my cat, Coco. I feed her 1/2 a cup of dry food in 3 meals as she is an indoor cat and often she will be given wet food as well. I enjoy keeping my friend as happy and healthy as possible since she’s like my own child.
About: I will provide you with updates throughout the process, fostering a genuine connection with the pets, helping them feel comfortable, and ensuring a positive experience for them. Considering my availability as a stay-at-home mother with three school-aged children, I am well-suited to devote my daytime hours to the care of your pets. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs for your fur baby to play with and I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I've had and cared for my own pets since I was a little girl, including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish and reptiles. I also worked for Petco for a short while in my college years, so I have experience caring for small animals (mice, guinea pigs, ferrets, etc). My boyfriend and I currently have 2 dogs of our own, and a 5 month old baby boy! We go for daily walks on the canal or at the cemetery near our house, as long as the weather permits. I love animal training and the study of animal behavior. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I am very free throughout the day all week! We already go on our own daily pack-walks, so adding a couple more furry friends here and there would be no problem! Our dogs love to play and have a ton of energy! We love doggy play-dates whenever we can get them. We have a decent sized back yard for dog play, and our basement is also a designated puppy-play zone when the weather is wet or cold. We have two long leads in our backyard to ensure no furry friend comes or goes without us knowing. Our dogs are very friendly with other dogs, and love to play and run with new friends! We try to stick to a predictable schedule with them daily, which includes 2 meals a day, 2 play times, at least 1 walk, and a training session with high-incentive treats. We are more than willing to come to your furry friend for play dates and walks as well!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kent on Rover is $16.1 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 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 640 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kent. 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 Kent 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.

- 98% 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.
