“Sarah is the best! Thorough and kind, she always makes sure your pet(s) get their basic needs met, and even some pets and loving along the way. We've booked with her multiple times and has our trust :)”
“We really appreciated Hannah. She was prompt and professional and showed immense comfort around my 3 dogs who had never been let out by someone they didn't know. I'd use her every time!”
“Laura has been such a reliable pet sitter for us. I feel at peace when we travel knowing our cats are being taken care of, and I appreciate her consistent availability and clear communication if plans ever change.”
“Lynne was great and sent timely updates and took good care of our Kitties on a very short notice - she was friendly and quick and handled all items we asked of her and the pictures she took were very cute! Would book again!”
“River was really great! We had a bad experience with a previous sitter (not on Rover), so we were a bit nervous. But he did really great. Always had fast responses, easy to arrange meetings for keys and whatnot, very friendly, seemed really caring and knowledgeable, kept their litter clean and water full, tried his best to get acquainted with them even though they’re pretty shy. Really no complaints. Would definitely recommend!”
“Katie took excellent care of my cat Ozzy while I was away this past week. I appreciated the updates on how he was doing and that she took a little extra time to play with him—from the pictures, it looked like he was having a great time. Thank you!”
“Stacey took great care of my two cats and was up for the challenge of taking care of them in the early stages of their introduction to each other. She sent lots of cute photos and helpful updates, and I can tell that she really loves cats.”
“Ashley did a great job taking care of our pets and really helped us out with unexpected scheduling changes happened. She was very flexible and we knew our animals were in good hands.”
About: Returning after a hiatus! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to bring my laptop to your home so I can spend extra time keeping your pet company. . As a cat owner (and former dog owner) myself, I know how much the little details matter. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, habits, and changing needs, and follow their usual feeding, play, and rest routines as closely as possible. . Whether your pet loves attention or prefers a little space, I’ll take my cues from them and help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I work from home fulltime and have a fairly flexible schedule. I’m happy to work at your home to spend extra time with your pet. I’m very aware of changes in pet personality and needs. I’ll pattern play and care as close to their normal routine as possible, encouraging them to feel safe and secure despite their human(s) being away.
“Allison was a last minute booking through the Rover App due to a last minute cancellation by a neighbor of mine to take care of my pet Chihuahua Mazy. She was so prompt in contacting me and so prompt to meet and greet with Mazy and me. I felt like Allison was an angel at this time of need! I had no worries with her care of Mazy. Fun to see Mazy in photos and videos looking so happy! I would have Allison back again taking care of Mazy - who wouldn’t want an angel taking care of your pet! Rover is lucky to have Allison!”
“My cat is very skittish, and Sierra did a great job meeting him where he's at!! She took care of him and sent pictures while respecting his space :) I'll definitely book with her again!”
About: I worked 8 years, almost 9, and The Dog Hut LLC. I've helped care for dogs as young as 2 months and dogs well into their senior years. I'm happy to give medication to any dogs that need it and make sure they get extra cuddles and someone to "talk to". I am also very open to more than just dogs. I worked for 4 years at the Dane County Humane Society caring for Guinee Pigs, rats, and a non venomous snake. I am currently between jobs so any day works well for me. I'm happy to come late morning and well into the night to feed, water, and play with your pets who need that. Or just lend a happy presence, for the cats and cat-like pets who just need a simple hello. At my home I do not have a fully fenced in yard but am within walking distance of a few paths so even if your dog will be on leash they will get a wonderful walk in. Bringing their own toys and comfort items will be needed as I only have a cat currently. Also your dog must be cat friendly or will need to have a kennel brought with them should they be staying. I am okay staying over at my client's place should the need arise, can give medication and will give them all the playtime and snuggle breaks they need. I will be wary of weather changes so I can give them quick breaks outside and make sure they still can get energy out should it be an inside kind of day.
“This was my first time using Rover and it could not have gone smoother! Somer informed me when she was heading to my house and promptly provided a report afterwards. Her and her stepdaughter did a wonderful job taking care of my rabbits and keeping their cage clean.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my own home since I was little and had the responsibility of caring and entertaining them for over 10 years. I have experience caring for multiple breeds and ages of dogs of my own and others. I have moderate experience training puppies and have a huge soft spot for senior dogs. Overall, I am a reliable and loving towards pets and am comfortable walking, hanging out, and caring for them! I completed my graduate program recently and working part time, so I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly schedule. I will not be able to offer my home for pet sitting services (my cat prefers to be alone), but I am more than happy to accommodate client’s wishes with pet sitting in their own homes.
“Cheyenne did an outstanding job taking care of our cat. We received detailed updates and photos every day, but more importantly, we could tell that Cheyenne really appreciated our cat's personality and quirks, and the two of them had clearly bonded by the end of the trip. We came home to a relaxed, happy cat.”
About: I have 10 pets in my current home. I have experience with a very large dog, a puppy, a spunky as well as medically needy cat and other animals. I take pride in good care and prioritizing the animals needs. I take about 2 classes a day but am free anytime in between, before or after! I’m very flexible and can work with you and your pets needs. Animals have feelings and needs, just like humans, and they should be treated with the upmost care. I provide that with every animal I look after.
“Hailey was fantastic! She gave great updates, everything was in order when I returned, she gave Ed’s just as directed, and my cat seemed happy when I returned! I would definitely book her again.”
“Shatoria took such great care of our three gals while we were away, providing lots of photos from each visit and making sure they were all given plenty of attention. You know your pets will be in good hands if you book with her. :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - McFarland
Jen is a wonderful, kind and caring pet sitter and our dog just adores her (and he’s picky!) Jen consistently provides text and photo updates, and we can see how comfortable our dog is with her. He loves to snuggle with her, show off his favorite toy, and show her all the best places to sun or get cozy. We are so grateful for the TLC and care Jen brings to every visit. Our dog has special medical needs and various medications, all of which Jen competently handles. We look forward to booking her again and again!
Sarah did an amazing job with our 3 kitties! She was thorough and communicated effectively. If she had a question she didn’t hesitate to ask, which I appreciate. Our cats seemed to enjoy her visits, even our shy kitty came out and said hello. Sarah is a great Rover and I’ll definitely be booking her in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in McFarland is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $23 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 1,521 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across McFarland. 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 McFarland. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
