“Bethaney took care of my 90lb Labrador retriever with no hesitation. Bethaney was so sweet sending me pictures during every visit that she made to my dog. Bethaney made me feel comfortable leaving my dog alone for the first time in my apartment and he was very well cared for. She took my dog out to play ball and even stayed longer than the 30 minute visits to make sure he had ample play time. I will definitely use Bethaney again in the future. She is very responsive and prompt for visits.”
About: I have always loved animals and started working in veterinary medicine as early as I could. I am now a technician and love caring for animals of all all ages, breeds, and sizes. I have experience with all types of animals, energy levels, and needs. I have plenty of time right now and would love to spend time with your pets and can even take them on adventures if desired. I try and keep pets the least stressed than can be when I am around. I treat every pet like my own and how I would want my pet to be treated. I am known at my clinics for excellent patient care.
“Cassandra was great with our 3 puppies. She was on time, played with them, made sure they ate and cleaned after their mess. She sent us pictures everyday which made us feel at ease. She even picked up an extra day that was previously not discussed without hesitation. I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. She takes her job to heart. I'm very happy that we chose her to care after my babies and will definitely book her again. I don't have a necessity to look anywhere else if she's available. Recommend 100% to other fur parents.”
About: I've taken care of a goofus labador retriver named Ginny for many years along with mulitple cats. My love of animals led me to getting my first job at petsmart pet hotel. I love playing and loving on all pets as much as I can. I'm currently working part time for another technical company from the hours of 9am to 530pm. I mostly likely can do friday through the weekend for sitting. I have enough experience to know what to do for dogs and cats. I will play with them. I will ask for any names or things that will make them comfortable and my top concern is letting them know that I will love on them and I am safe.
“She was so nice and attentive to our babies. Very easy to communicate with and very responsive. Will definitely use her services again. She was able to get pictures as well. Very pleased especially for our first time ever using the service. Great Experience ❤️”
“Kamron was awesome with our dog and friends dog that was staying over. We asked for a last minute drop in and Kamron came through! He left great feedback. It was such a relief having someone we could trust to check on them. He was super quick to respond. He also paid attention to detail and took great care in what we needed. We will use him again for sure! Above and beyond, excellent experience.”

“Kalia was wonderful. I was worried about using Rover for my 6 week old kittens but they were in good hands with her. Great communication and my baby kitties really seemed to like her. 10/10, I would schedule her again.”
“Savannah is the absolute best! We had a last minute need while we were out of town and she dropped everything to help us out!

“Scarlett was amazing with our dogs! She always went above and beyond! We actually could relax on our vacation knowing she was watching our fur babies. She was always on time and her report cards were thorough, always letting us know what was going on. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again, she has been the best dog sitter we have ever had!”
“She did a wonderful job with Ruby. She was very kind and passionate towards Ruby our family. Our dog really enjoyed spending time with her. Will definitely rebook her and recommend her to anyone. She will take good care of her little one”
“Another fun visit with Maria! Bentley and Maria have clearly bonded. He was happy to see her and enjoyed cuddles and belly rubs. Maria even thought to put dog shows on the tv to keep him company until I got home. Thank you Maria - we will see you again soon!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Locust Grove 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.
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 Locust Grove 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Locust Grove with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
