“Stacey is a great sitter who provides excellent communication about your pet and goes above and beyond in providing care. Bear had a great time and was well taken care of. I highly recommend recommend Stacey.”
“We have a pup with an incredible instinct for judging character, so we scheduled a meet-and-greet with Amelia to see how they connected. From the moment they met, our dog took to Amelia immediately—something we had honestly never seen before. Trusting our pup's intuition turned out to be the best decision we could have made! Amelia was kind, caring, professional, and made us feel completely at ease. It's clear she genuinely loves animals, and our dog felt comfortable and happy in her care. We couldn't be more grateful, and Amelia has officially become our go-to fur sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”
“Cameron did an outstanding job looking after our pets while we were away. He left frequent updates and sent adorable photos/videos. I would highly recommend booking with him when you need a pet sitter.”

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats, as well as helping family members with their pets. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I truly understand how much they mean to their families. I am patient, calm, and very respectful of each animal’s personality and space. I’m especially gentle with shy, senior, or more sensitive pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. During each visit, I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, receive attention, playtime, and plenty of affection. I understand how important routines are and I always follow instructions carefully. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, and I provide updates and photos so you can feel relaxed and confident knowing your pets are in caring and reliable hands. Pet care is a dedicated and organized part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule one day in advance to ensure I can provide reliable and punctual service to every client. I currently offer drop-in visits Monday through Friday between 6am and 3pm. I limit the number of visits per day so each pet receives calm, focused, and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s normal routine and environment. I ensure doors and gates are secured, food and medications are administered as directed, and the home is kept clean and respectful. I provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners feel informed and reassured. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stable experience for both the pet and the family.

Previously, I took care of senior dogs so I consider myself well-rounded with ages. I’m currently a full-time student so my weekly routine is pretty flexible at the moment! Many of my classes are online so that makes things much easier to continue to be flexible. I have 11 acres that my puppy explores and plays on, and we use a personal crate for nap times so he feels like he has his own space.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Knollwood
Jess was amazing and really came through for us when a last minute family emergency came up. She was able to confirm and book with us the same day, which was a huge relief. Our dogs and cat all seemed comfortable with her right away and definitely took a liking to her. We really appreciate her flexibility, reliability, and care, and will continue to book with her when needed. Highly recommend!!!
She was so communicative and really took her time with my kitties! I have a really shy cat but it seemed like towards the end of her visits she got her to come out a little bit more! It’s always nice to have someone you can rely on to take care of your babies when you go out of town!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Knollwood is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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 824 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Knollwood. 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.

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.
