“Scott was great and kept us informed while we were gone. He also came to meet our boys prior to watching them. He asked good information questions and followed suggestions that we shared. Would not hesitate to ask him to watch our boys again.”
“Aimee took amazing care of my 3 cats. She communicated throughout with any concerns or questions, came on time for the scheduled visits, and agreed to meet us ahead of time to review everything. She took the time to write detailed notes on how we prefer to take care of our cats and ensured they were well taken care of while we were gone. We came home to our home clean, and to 3 happy cats! We have already booked her again for our next trip!”
“Thank you Tara. Our 2 dogs were well taken care of. I appreciate booking her last minute. We usually can have family watch our pups, but we will definitely call Tara again if we need a sitter.”
“Carolina was great!, My boys were glad to see me but did not seem stressed out or out of sorts. They just wanted some loving!! Thank you, and I hope you are available again in the future...”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and pet sit for friends all the time! I love animals and love to hang out with them and keep them company! I’m currently working full-time at a coffee shop, but my hours are 6 AM–2 PM! This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for pets. After work, I’m available to stop by, take them for walks, feed them, and spend quality time playing and keeping them company. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my biggest priorities are their safety, comfort, and routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on your pets while I’m there. I’ll also give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, food, and fresh water as needed. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets and home are being cared for responsibly while you’re away.
“Abbie is absolutely fantastic!!! She is definitely a pet lover and our cat loved her and showed her his belly immediately. He is not that way with everyone but, she just has such a sweet personality and is so good with pets, she won him over. Additionally, she went above and beyond with his care, spending extra time with him. She is exceptional and we are so grateful that we found her!”

About: I have a cat Liam who I care for and I help my family care for their cats and dogs as well. I have pet sit/house sit for 3 years now. I'm consistent with my check ups and walkings/feedings. I stick to a schedule all the time. I'm also always all over the areas from Venice to Riverview, I can always do drop by, a quick walk. I'm flexible with my schedule to fit your pets needs, and any last minute bookings! I'm currently working at 2 jobs and still have free time for your pets! I work as a house cleaner and receptionist, I love staying active and just hanging out with animals. My desk job gives me 3-5 hours of an extended break Thu-Sunday. Outside of that I am I clean homes and offices around the Venice, Sarasota, and Bradenton Area. My family and I have 3 cats, Liam, Munchkin, and Sunni. We also have a chihuahua mixed, shes our oldest. I keep our pets on a feeding schedule and in charge of food and keeping it stocked. I am very strick about their feeding schedule and food quality. Before I even became a cat parent I did extensive research just trying to find the best quality and affordable food, litter, toys. I've always wanted the best for them and treat them as an baby. Our cats also love the outdoors so I also walk them, harnessed or off but they well enough to stay close when we walk. I've also taught Liam a few tricks for treats (he'll do almost anything for treats).

I am also available to come to your home for daily walks and feeding/walking.

“Christal did a fantastic job when we needed her last minute. She took such great care of our sweet pup when we needed a last minute drop in visit and walk for our pup. Thank you!!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and currently have 2 big boys. My friends, neighbors and family have always relied on me to care for their animals and love them like my own! As both of my dogs are rescues I had to put a lot of time into training them. I trained them to stop being reactive, to heel, sit, stay, and even ring our doorbell by the front door when they need to use the potty. Being that my dogs were reactive I am very accustomed to big dogs who pull and bark- so if that's your case you can rest assured they'll be safe with me. We will discuss what's best for your dog or dogs and I'll be sure to adhere to that specifically. I understand the stress of allowing others to care for your fur babies so I'll ensure to be very thorough and remain open contact with pictures and videos throughout my visit(s). I'll always leave a note for you as well so you know how it went for them! I just moved here from Bonita Springs and as we jumpstart our catering business I have plenty of extra time on my hands! I am comfortable with dog baths, car rides, administering oral medicine, long walks, I can even take your dog on a 2 mile run if their vet approves it! Growing up in my dad's home we had 5 dogs on his property at one point! I've been around dogs since I was a baby. We have had small dogs like chihuahuas, and big 100 pound rescue mutts as well. I rescued my one dog at 6 months old so I raised him from a puppy up. My second dog was sadly abused before I got him and has scars to show it. He is the sweetest angel in the world and has come so far in terms of training and coming out of his shell to be comfortable around humans again. As a child i've been attacked by dogs but my love for them never wavered- if anything it encouraged me to learn more about their behavior and how to make them comfortable. I understand now more than ever when a dog is uncomfortable, distressed, anxious, etc. I hope to hear from you soon and see how I can help make your life easier for you and your furry baby! Currently I'm only working part time so I have plenty of time to watch after your babies! I will let you know if there's a specific time or day i'm not available. I have a two story home and 2 loving dogs who can keep your babies company. I can also separate them with my gates that I have, or cage if need be. While my yard is very small for quick bathroom or zoomie use, we also do have a dog park in the community as well as plenty of long & wide walking paths. I do walks every 4 hours or less if needed for your animal. I have cameras in the front, back, and inside of my home so my eyes will always be on them even if i'm running to the store. I never leave home more than 4 hours at a time- even that will only be subject to your approval.
“Holly and Jace were great, I’m going away for a work trip next week, so I scheduled them for a drop in visit before my trip so they could get acquainted with my 2 dogs. It gives me peace of mind knowing I can trust my babies with someone while I’m away!”
“Channing was amazing! She cared for our 4 cats over a period of one week. She sent daily updates and pictures so we knew our furbabies were taken care of very well. I definitely recommend her to anyone and everyone!!”

Amanda really went the extra mile and handled everything perfectly. My cat is a real scaredy cat , put her through the paces & pulled some real Houdini tricks , she managed to deal with it with a pleasant demeanor, hopefully wasn't too much & will return. , Thanks

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Laurel is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $27 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 1,739 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Laurel. 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 Laurel. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
