“Very easy to communicate with and he was reliable and left great feedback after each visit. I felt like my fur baby was properly cared for and I had no concerns being away from her”
“The communication and caring in every aspect of the care of my pets was amazing. I was able to leave them in his care with confidence. So very much appreciated.”
“Sarah has been a blessing. My shorti is pre diabetic and I feel less stressed knowing that someone as caring and intentive as Sarah is around. Pictures galore and updates ease my mind when I'm away on travel. Sarah has been wonderful and will keep using her as my needs for work travel increases.”
“Peter took absolutely amazing care of my dog, Oddie. This was the very first time we ever left Oddie with someone who wasn’t family, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Peter made us feel at ease and treated Oddie with so much love and care. He kept us updated and sent us photos, which truly meant the world to us and gave us so much peace of mind. We are beyond grateful for his care and will absolutely be using his services again. 100% highly recommended!”
“Christopher did a wonderful job taking care of our older cat for the week while we were away. He went above and beyond in all aspects and our cat was so lucky to be taken care of by Christopher!”
About: I’ve always had pets growing up. I used to volunteer at a dog shelter. I just personally love animals and are really good with animals I work part time but I have a very flexible schedule, I’d always make time to take care of pets when needed. I love all dogs big and small I have a blue tick hound that I rescued. I always play with her and take her out, she loves sleeping on my bed with me or in my room.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Carli was wonderful with our three pups! We have two large collies and a 16-year-old senior Chihuahua, and she was great with all of them. The pups really liked her and felt comfortable with her, which gave us such peace of mind. She was thorough, communicated very well, and sent us pictures while we were away. We would definitely recommend Carli and will happily use her again! 🐾❤️”
“This was our first time using Rover, and I’m so Happy with your services so far. Caitlyn has been amazing and we appreciate her taking care of our girl Ziggy. Thanks again this experience was the best.”
“Addie is INCREDIBLE! She is prompt with her responses and was quick to respond to my inquiry and schedule a meet and greet. It is clear she cares about animals and wants them to feel safe with her. She has gone out of her way to make the most of her time with my shy baby every time she’s there, and had given me detailed reports and pictures. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you, Addie!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Isabella. She took excellent care of our dog and was very attentive to all of her needs. I really appreciated receiving updates and photos after every visit—it was always so nice to know how Savannah spent her day. Isabella is reliable, caring, and truly professional. She gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and we will definitely book with her again!”
“Jackalyn was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my girls and truly treated them like they were her own. She kept me updated the entire time, was super communicative, accommodating, and very detailed about how they were doing. She also sent me the cutest pictures, which I loved and really helped me feel at ease while I was at work. My girls looked so happy and comfortable with her, and I could tell they absolutely loved spending time with her. It’s always nerve-racking leaving your pets with someone, but Jackalyn made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. She’s truly the best!”
“First time using Rover and Jennifer did a great job taking care of my boys. I enjoyed all the picture updates of them playing and it seemed like they liked her presence as well. Will probably use her services again in the future.”
“Sure! Here’s a slightly shorter version that works well for Rover: We had a great experience with Linda. Our dogs received lots of attention and loving care, and the frequent photo updates gave us total peace of mind. When we returned, their behavior made it clear they were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“Maria was amazing and attentive to all of my cat’s needs. She gave us daily updates and followed all of our instructions perfectly. Our cat absolutely loved her visits and we look forward to working with her again!”
“I met Becca last week before this visit and had a great first visit going over the details of care for my Geriatric Cat. Becca communicated with me every step of the way and took pictures throughout her visit. I know Sneakers enjoyed the attention. When I got home, he was sleeping in his box and everything looked great! Thank you so much for loving on Sneakers.”
“Very professional and caring towards our scaredy cat. Spent time around her to help her warm up and sent good pictures during each visit. Very accommodating for specific feeding/care requests.”
“Cassi is excellent and immediately connected with our dachshund on the couple of drop-in visits we needed her for. Our dog is disabled and she has taken such sweet care of our girl. Recommend Cassi! She is on time and a great communicator!”

I highly recommend Rebecca. She has visited my cat Sneakers several times. This past week she visited 2x per day, once in the morning and then again in the evening for 4 days to feed, scoop the litter box and give Sneakers love and pets. She took the bags of litter out to the big trash when she left. Each day I received a message or picture of Sneakers letting me know he was okay and if he ate or peed or pooped. Rebecca followed all the feeding schedules. Thanks again Becca for taking such good care of Sneakers.
Luisa is timely and we’ve used her twice to check in on our kitties. One of our kitties can be a bit territorial so we are grateful that she is so fearless and willing to check in on him. She sends us great photos and updates on how the kitties are doing while we are gone

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Longwood on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,208 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Longwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Longwood 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.
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 Longwood. On Rover:
- 91% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
