“Nicole did a great job taking care of our two boys, Franklin and Melon. She kept us up to date with plenty of photos and was easy to work with. Highly recommend her for anyone living in the Grovetown Area.”
“London provided excellent care for our pets during drop-in visits. He made sure to provide update cards and pictures , and was always prompt with responding to my messages. I would absolutely book London again for future visits”
“Huge thanks to Mary for stepping in to do a drop in at the last minute. I have a sitter but needed someone to do a drop in on yesterday as the sitter had to work her day job. My daughter was supposed to do this for me but canceled on me. Mary was there to help which made me feel so much better while on vacation. Thank you Mary.”

About: I just currently got my first puppy, he is a lab husky mix and is my entire heart! However before him I have had many family and friend dogs that I treated as my own. I have experience training a puppy now, and it’s been a whirlwind but wouldn’t trade it for the world! I would always treat your fur baby as my own! Due to my full time job I am only available on the weekends. I can do Fridays after 5:30pm, and all day Saturdays and Sundays! I would spend quality time with your pup and do feeding and outside play time! For their walks the time/distance is all up to you and what your pup is comfortable with. I am very flexible and know that every dog is different :)
“Wonderful sitter! Very loving and kind with our pup and tailored the activities to Sophie’s energy level. Was able to take our last minute request which was quite helpful. We will use again!”

About: I provide loving, reliable pet care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or walks, I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs, from playtime and cuddles to feeding schedules and medications if needed. You can count on regular updates, photos, and lots of love while you’re gone! I am currently a hairstylist and have a very flexible schedule. I often have brakes in between clients so I can check on your pets frequently. At home, my pets are treated like family. I keep them on a consistent routine with regular feeding, fresh water, daily exercise, and plenty of playtime and affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable. Clean spaces, lots of love, and a calm, safe environment are always my priority.
“DeAndre provides A+ service! Excellent communication, followed care instructions, provided updates and pictures, and I felt like my pet was safe and well cared for. I will definitely book services with him again, and recommend him to other pet owners.”
About: About Me 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs since I was just 7 years old! I grew up helping my grandfather care for his hunting dogs, which taught me from an early age how much patience, responsibility, and love goes into caring for animals. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Ozzy, an energetic Australian Kelpie who definitely keeps me on my toes! 🐶💙 I’ve also provided drop-in care for family and friends, caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾 I’m currently looking for full-time employment so I have pretty much open availability. My schedule would be open from 9a-230p, M-Fr, time could be shorter depending on location. I can only do drop in care at the moment. I can let them out to potty, take a short walk and/or play in your yard.

We provide eachother with love and emotional support. Also, providing a safe environment is just as important to me with a fenced yard and the attention that my dogs deserve. Thank you in advance for considering me!

I’ve had the unique experience of breeding Boxers for a few years. As a breeder I have cared for newborn puppies, deworming, administering shots, and potty training them until eventually finding them forever homes. I will walk, feed, and play with your fur baby and set their minds at ease until you return. I am retired and I’m ready to start a hobby that I will love.

About: I work at a vet office, I get along very well with animals. I know how to tell what your pets behavior is and if they are feeling sick, nervous, overwhelmed, stressed or even showing signs of aggression. I know how to administer medication if needed. And I absolutely love meeting new animals! I could also clip your pets nails for an additional fee! (10$). Need ears cleaned? I can do that as well! I’m currently working full time at a animal hospital so I will be able to do this more so on the weekends and probably some Fridays, if the pet is close to my house/job I would be able to do 2/3 drop in visits depending on the location I will make sure the pet is well fed and administered medication if any, I will also make sure they are cleaned up after if any mess is made. Along with this I will monitor their behavior to make sure everything is going okay with them, and of course I will send update photos.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Valerie was fantastic! She saved my butt and came to check in on my girlies on super short notice. She sent ample pictures and updates, and I can tell my girls really liked her. I would definitely recommend her for your babies, because she takes the job seriously and has the bandwidth to dedicate her attention completely to them.
I cannot say enough good things about Amanda! Rocco and Matteo love her and looked forward to her visits throughout the day! She was very attentive to their needs, checked in on time and stayed longer when she felt they needed her too. She made this anxious dog mama feel so much better that she was there for them and I could enjoy my trip. I will not hesitate to call on her again for any vacation or out of town trips. Thank you so much Amanda! You are so appreciated!
Jennifer took great care of my not 1 not 2 but 3 doggos!! She kept me updated with pictures and played with them throughout the drop in visits!! She handled all of my 3 doggos personalities! My small young yapaholic, my oldest protector, and my chungus who chills! I recommend her greatly and will for sure do it again!
It was a PLEASURE to have Nicole drop in on our baby, Maverick while we were out of town. Our usual sitter was unavailable for our last minute trip and I scrambled trying to find someone right before having to leave. Nicole was available to meet right away and she took the best care of him. I could tell from the moment he met her that he would love her. All of his check in pics had a huge smile on his little face lol We’ll definitely be booking with Nicole again in the future!
If you want a thoughtful, attentive, and proactive sitter, please reach out to Christine! If she had questions or concerns, she reached out right away. She asked to put kitty TV on when she noticed the cats needed some stimulation, paying close attention to their needs. And she was kind enough to wash everyone's bowls and food scoops on the way out!
Meredith was absolutely incredible. This was my first time ever leaving my dog at home with in-home visits, and she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and clearly someone who truly loves animals. On day one, my sweet Bella had an accident, and Meredith handled it without hesitation. She cleaned everything up and reassured me right away, which meant more than she probably knows. This was Bella’s first time being left at home, and Meredith was so patient, gentle, and loving with her. She even brought toys and treats and made sure Bella felt comfortable, safe, and very well loved the entire time. I would 1,000% recommend Meredith to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their fur baby. Bella was cared for like she was her own, and I am beyond grateful.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Kingston is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 482 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Kingston. 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.
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 Kingston 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 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.
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 Kingston 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 Kingston. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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.
