“Michael jumped on board for a same day request on a holiday weekend to drop in at our home to feed our two high energy Boston's. He took them out for a potty break and a fun run and fetch game. Communication and availability was exactly what we needed. Next time we need a fur kid sitter, we won’t hesitate to contact Michael.”

About: While I am new to offering services on Rover, I bring over 23 years of experience managing and caring for multi-dog households. I’ve raised, trained, and cared for dogs through every life stage—from high-energy puppies to gentle seniors needing extra patience and mobility support. I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets; they're full family members who thrive on consistent routines, clear boundaries, and genuine companionship. Key Strengths & Skills Multi-Dog Household Management: Skilled at reading canine body language, managing energy levels, and maintaining harmony among multiple dogs. Routine & Schedule Continuity: Accustomed to following strict feeding, exercise, medication, and sleep schedules to ensure your dog feels secure while you're away. Safety & Environment First: Experienced in dog-proofing homes and yards, handling leash walks securely, and keeping safety as the top priority during all interactions. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am usually up with my dogs fairly early in the morning. I am available most week days and weekends. I know how important it is for pets to stay in their comfortable, familiar routine—especially when their owners are away. When caring for your pets in your home, I prioritize security, routine, and personalized care.

About: I have taken care of pets for over ten years. I have earned the trust of repeat clients and the love of dogs AND cats. I take my job very seriously; I know what a privilege it is to come into someone’s home and to be responsible for a family member. I am a self employed artist who can take my work anywhere. My time is not restricted and therefore walking, meal times and potty breaks are not a problem to maintain. My availability in general is optimal for long stays or last minute bookings. I am extremely respectful of my clients’ homes and adhere strictly to their instructions. I treat the environment as a place of employment; and I aim to leave the home clean, neat and as the clients left it.
“Kate puts the divine in feline! Mabel is always happy and taken care of every time I leave town, and I never feel like I need to check in as Kate always does that for me! I’ll always go back to Kate for my pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, attentive, and highly aware of each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or older and more relaxed, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog with the same level of care, empathy, and attention I would want for my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and secure. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to accommodate different routines and energy levels while being attentive to each dog’s specific needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, energy level, and any specific instructions provided by the owner to help them feel secure and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and a clean environment. I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors, gates, and surroundings, and I always prioritize safety and communication. I also understand that every dog is different. Some need play and activity, while others need patience, consistency, and a calm presence. I adapt my care to what helps each pet feel most comfortable and happy.
About: Ive been pet sitting for friends and family for years, and have had multiple work experiences in the animal care field. I've been able to teach basic commands to friends and families pets, and understand the complexities of medical care for not only my own animal, but others as well. I'm currently working full time but could very much use the free time I have of hanging out with animals! Having time to be able to take care of others animals can provide much needed stress relief for not only me, but for pet parents knowing their pets are being taken care of.

I think Alyssa was an excellent cat sitter. Chloe, my cat, can be a little territorial, but Alyssa seems to have taken it in stride and managed to get through the week. She made my vacation possible and worry free. I felt very confident that she would put Chloe at ease and do the things she needed to do.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Manheim is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 October 2026, there are 2,005 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Manheim. 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
