About: I own a border collie and 2 elderly cats. I am home during the day and night. I am an avid hiker and love to take dogs for long walks in the woods. See my YouTube channel: LaceyhikesAT2026 to get to know me more. I am currently not working as I just returned from a 2200 mile hike and am looking to care for animals (as opposed to working in an office). I have availability and energy to deplete. I own my own home in rural area. My yard is nestled between a working farm and a horse pasture. I walk my border collie 3 times a day at minimum and often on trails in the woods. My animals roam free in my home and dog/cats (2 elderly) behave with confidence and happiness. My cats are indoor but one does get walked daily outside on a leash (at his insistence).
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old, and caring for animals has always been something I’m passionate about. Over the years, family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets by feeding them, letting them out for potty breaks, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also have experience rescuing and fostering dogs, which has taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and helping each dog feel comfortable at their own pace. I’m now the proud owner of Moose, my 4.5-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog, who gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats. Having a dog of my own has taught me so much about providing consistent, attentive care and understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give every pet a loving, safe, and fun experience! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I love spending time outdoors, going on walks and hikes, and making sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I prioritize being reliable and flexible so I can accommodate each pet's individual needs and routine. Whether it's a morning walk, afternoon playtime, or evening cuddles, I enjoy making time to ensure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs, whether that means going on walks, playing outside, giving them lots of attention, or simply keeping them company. I follow each owner's instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special care needs. I also believe communication is important, so I love sending updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, loved, and at home!
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them. I understand that every pet is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. At home, I have 2 dogs and 3 cats, so I know firsthand how much pets mean to a family. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can feel confident your furry family members are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work another job so I’ll make sure I have time to care for your furry family members I can do late at night or early morning drop ins I will treat them like they are my own pets I will keep you updated and send pictures I will keep your furry family members safe
About: I’ve watched multiple of my family members dogs, ranging from big to little dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I also enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood or to the park. I’m currently taking care of my grandma so I don’t really have a set schedule. So I’m always willing to help out. I have a dachshund and she is very nice towards animals and people so if I were to house sit she would also be very welcoming.
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for dogs and cats. I have experience caring for senior dogs and understand that older dogs may need extra patience, attention, and a slower pace. I had cats all my life and am very experienced with giving them care. I’m happy to give your dog/cat the individual care they need and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to make time for regular walks, drop ins, and check ins, and I’m committed to being dependable and keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other needs. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to your pet, and will make sure they receive plenty of care and attention while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Martinsburg is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 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 125 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Martinsburg. 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.
