“Emma was great for drop in visits on our cat Cupcake while we were out of town. She kept her great company, played with her a lot, made us feel totally comfortable leaving Cupcake alone for the first time, and we’re definitely booking Emma again when we need her help!”

About: I absolutely love dogs, and walking! I grew up around dogs and have fostered dogs of all breeds and sizes. I work full-time as a Registered Nurse Monday - Friday and am mostly available for evenings and weekend drop-ins/walks but can also offer either over a lunch break depending on the day and location. Given my passion for both dogs and nursing, I'm comfortable with dogs that have special needs or who need a little extra TLC. With fostering we have dealt with all sorts of behavioral problems and I have experience with everything from potty-training to leash aggression. Every dog has their own unique needs and personality, and I have the compassion and adaptability to look after any furry friend! I do work full-time, Monday - Friday (8-4:30). My work place varies throughout the week with some days being in Port Washington and others in West Bend, which does make weekday daytime coordination a little challenging. However evenings and weekends have more flexibility, and if I am working in Port Washington (Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) I am available to swing by over my lunch break depending for local drop-ins. I have fostered numerous dogs over the years and treat them as my own. I have experience with leash training as well as crate training given my background in fostering. I have quite a bit of experience with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash or dog aggression, and I am always extremely cautious and protective of the dogs I am walking to ensure that there are no safety concerns when out walking (i.e. always crossing the street when another dog is coming, or not allowing them to run up to other dogs without ensuring both are friendly first).

About: I have always owned dogs. I love dogs more than people and will treat your dog as if they were my own. I have experience with all dogs including, large dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I currently work from home so I have the flexibility to meet your needs. I do not have childcare on Fridays so I am unable to see dogs on that day. I will treat your dog as my own. I will respect your space and finish the job I came to do. I like to spend a few minutes to say hello to the dog and make them comfortable.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently care for four dogs and one cat of my own. Caring for multiple pets has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to recognize each animal’s unique personality and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to quiet cuddles and sticking to feeding routines, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care. Also, I am comfortable and experienced in handling medication for dogs as one of my dogs at home has diabetes. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I’ll treat yours with the same kindness, respect, and affection that I give my own. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pet. I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred days and times, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits both you and your furry friend. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for my own four dogs and one cat, so I’m familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and lots of love. I’ll also respect your pet’s routine, follow any feeding or medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and in recent years, cats too, including one we found as an orphaned kitten, just a few weeks old, hiding in our backyard bushes. Nursing him through those fragile first months taught me a lot about patience, close observation, and gentle care, all things I bring to every pet I look after. By background, I’m a people nurse, so I’m comfortable with medications, mobility issues, senior pets, or anything unexpected that comes up. These days I’m an at-home mom and entrepreneur, which means I have flexibility during the day and evenings. Your pet will get consistent attention and someone who treats their routine, quirks, and comfort as a priority. I’d love to meet you and your pet and talk through exactly what they need. Since I’m home full-time as a mom and entrepreneur, pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed into a tight window. I can offer walks, feedings, or check-ins throughout the day. My schedule has a lot of built-in flexibility, so I can usually adjust to a pet’s routine rather than asking them to adjust to mine. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible — same feeding times, same walk schedule, same spots for naps or play — so there’s as little disruption to their normal life as possible. I like to get a clear rundown from owners beforehand (feeding amounts, medications, quirks, favorite toys, anything that helps them feel secure) and I stay attentive to any signs something’s off, which is where my nursing background comes in handy

“Angela took wonderful care of Elliott during her twice-daily visits. She showed tremendous patience with him and let him warm up to her at his own pace. By her final visit, he allowed her to pet him and take him into the yard—a big accomplishment! She also thoughtfully handled a few extra details around the house. I truly appreciated her reliable and compassionate care. I highly recommend.”

“Olivia was great! My dog is a sweetheart to most everyone, but doesn't cuddle with anyone really other than me. Some of the photos Olivia shared showed my girl cuddling up to her and that was amazing! We have had many wonderful sitters on Rover, but none that my dog seemed this comfortable with. Olivia took great care of my dog and it was such a relief to have her help while we were away for the weekend. We will definitely be looking to use Olivia again in the future! Aside from the dog care itself, Olivia was just wonderful to work with. She was understanding when I lost our message history and just a very nice person.”

About: I have dreamed about walking dogs since I was a little girl and now I have found a way to do it and get paid! I have two Weiner dogs at my mom's house, a labordooddle at my dad's, and two cats of my own.I know and love all kinds of dogs and cats! I will care and treat them like they are my own so trust me they will get the best care ever! They may even get a little spoiled... But I can be strict if you have certain rules you want them to abide by! I have training. Please consider me when thinking about who can care for your furry children. I will give them the best care they deserve! I work part time and have a flexible schedule, so I can be available when needed. I have a car for easy transportation as well. My cats get supervised time outside on harnesses and time in the breezeway with open windows to get some fresh air. My neighborhood is good for taking dogs on walks and there is a wonderful dog park near by!

About: My husband and I have been watching dogs in our home for over 10 years. Our busy lives of work and family have always held us back from owning our own dog. To satisfy our love for dogs we started watching our friends and families dogs and over the years thru word of mouth we have started getting phone calls asking if we would take on more dogs and then joined Rover. We have experience with small to large dogs, dogs with special dietary needs, dogs that need to be able to run, dogs that want to sit on your lap, to dogs that have medical needs. We believe that dogs should be treated as part of the family. We allow them to sit on furniture, sleep in bed etc.. Our jobs have afford us the ability to be able to adjust our schedules to be flexible and have the option to work from home when we have a dog staying with us. This allows us to be home with your dog to ensure they are getting plenty of play time, outside time and lots of attention. It is very rare that your dog will be home alone for a period of time. Our home is your dogs home... we give the dogs full access to the house. We are non smokers and do not have any pets of our own or small children. We walk the dogs twice a day and have an acre of land that dogs are free to roam, run and play -we like to play ball and tug a rope. We do provide a ground stake with a leash for those that like to run "free". We have ability to work from home and have very flexible schedules when needed. Which in turn allows us to very rarely leave your dog home alone We treat the dogs just as if they were our very own pet.. as part of the family. They have free range of the house .. on the furniture and beds.

About: With a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Behavior and experience as a veterinary assistant, I provide knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to each pet. I’m comfortable with puppies (including basic training support), senior pets, and animals who need medications or extra patience. I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free while keeping owners updated — treating every animal like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I already structure my days around animal care through my work and schooling in veterinary medicine, so feeding, walking, enrichment, and medication schedules come second nature to me. I plan my week intentionally to ensure pets in my care receive consistent attention, exercise, and affection, with flexibility for special needs or last-minute changes. Your pet will never feel like an “extra task” — they’ll be part of my everyday routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a secure space to relax, play, and explore safely. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions, while closely monitoring behavior and well-being. I treat every pet like family, building trust through gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and consistent attention so they feel happy and safe at all times.

“People said it couldn’t be done but Courtney did it! Our Daisy is a rescue with odd triggers and a guarded outward personality hiding her gentle lovie inner personality. Courtney came with patience, confidence, affection and belief - and she has won Daisy’s trust and mutual affection. (Mine, too!) I couldn’t be happier! Courtney is professional, prompt, friendly and easygoing. She brings loads of experience and a comfortable sense of self to provide heartfelt companionship right here in our home, helping Daisy be her best self! Thanks, Court! God smiled on us - You are a blessing!”

About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and dogs and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. I have an active dog of my own who loves going on long walks, so I’m very comfortable keeping energetic dogs active and entertained. As a high-level athlete, I’m active myself and genuinely enjoy being outdoors, whether that’s walking, playing, or simply spending time with a pet. I’ve also helped neighbors care for their animals while they were away. Right now I’m training in Milwaukee and have practice at 3:30 so I can take care of your pet during the day but also after practice if needed. Would be preferred if I did at the clients house but I live in a apartment right now they have a dog park and sorts.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Knellsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Knellsville is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $34 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 1,720 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Knellsville. 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 Knellsville. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
