“Cara was a wonderful sitter! My two doodles are a handful, very active! She handled their hyper behavior very well! I will definitely use her again when we go out of town😊”
About: I have always loved dogs and found them fascinating! I am constantly researching the most up to date natural snacks/wellness routines for my own dogs! I am looking forward to making your pup feel right at home! We walk our dogs in the morning and at night! We start our work days at 9AM and are usually home by 2 Monday-Friday. After that time and on weekends, all we do is spend time with our dogs. We have HUGE gated yard where we throw toys and run around with them. We never let them outside of the gate without a collar and leash. The safety of animals is our top priority. We don’t know what we would do without them! We have an emergency vet 2 minutes from our house and that always makes us feel extra safe.
“She was wonderful. Our cats are unfortunately bad and broke glass and she very kindly cleaned it up and took out the trash for us. She has been super responsive throughout and we couldn’t ask for much more. One hundred percent recommend.”
“She did a great job checking in on my cats and updating me with pictures, which put me at ease while i was away! I forgot to turn down the thermostat before we left and she kindly changed it for me!”

On Demand is great , have a very flexible schedule. My dog Bella would love to help you keep your fur baby happy unless of course they already have their own and very territorial. Understood.

About: Hi, I’m Morgan! Dogs are my passion, and I’ve spent 12+ years caring for pups of all ages. With 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant and a background in animal science, I know how to keep dogs happy, healthy, and safe. I love keeping dogs active — a tired pup is a happy pup! I provide dog-sitting, dog-walking, bathing, and drop-ins, following all care instructions carefully and sending picture updates so you can see your furry friend enjoying their day. I currently work full-time, so I’m available after my shift on weekdays and full-time on weekends. I have one friendly dog to keep your pup company and can accommodate shy or special-needs dogs. I also have a spacious yard and access to nearby dog parks during quiet times for safe play. I’d love the opportunity to help keep your dog happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away! I work full-time at a veterinary hospital from 7:00 AM–3:00 PM on weekdays. Outside of these hours, I’m available for drop-ins or pet care as needed. I’m also free on weekends, which allows me to provide flexible care to meet your pet’s schedule and needs. I provide a range of personalized pet care services, including drop-ins, dog-walking, and more. For drop-ins, I visit your home to provide fresh food and water, administer medication if needed, and give plenty of love and attention. I also engage with your pets through playtime, walks, or activities suited to their personality, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. If pets are in my care at my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with attention, playtime, and exercise. I always follow your specific care instructions, from dietary needs to medication and routines, so your pet feels right at home.
About: I was a dog trainer at Petco for two years and have trained two emotional support dogs for veterans with PTSD, as well as my own German Shepherd. I do not believe in leaving animals unattended for extended periods of time, and have stopped dating people that did not treat their animals like their children. I have an array of experience watching animals from snakes and birds to cats, dogs and aquatic life. Any dog that I have cared for that had "behavioral issues or extreme anxiety" has left my care more adjusted and confident. My home is clean, my backyard secure and the play consistent with the needs of the dog. Pet care is part of my everyday life. My schedule and extracurriculars are based off of my shepherd's needs and care. She is ran at least once a day (extended) or twice a day in shorter bursts. She is never left longer than 4-6 hours without being taken out and walked for potty breaks. We have enrichment play in the evening and maintain a healthy diet for her needs. I ensure that anything dangerous is not accessible to my pets. No toxic plants, loose cords, etc. My backyard is fenced and secured and has grass, shade and patio for them to rest on.
About: 8 years of professional petsitting experience on top of multiple years of pet ownership; includes housesitting, house maintenance, and care of non-traditional pets such as rodents and reptiles. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible and wide open for plenty of time to love on your furry friends. I receive my schedule weeks in advance and am able to prioritize my clients effectively and ensure the highest quality of care. Due to my apartment complex not allowing pets, I care for pets at clients’ homes, whether that’s through pop-in visits to the home or housesitting for the amount of time needed. This ensures that your pets are in an environment that they are comfortable in. I communicate with clients before and throughout the visit to ensure they are kept in the loop while I care for their pets, including photos, and I never hesitate to ask questions if I have any.
About: Because of my loving concern that I have for my very own dog, it really makes me one of the perfect candidates. I love my 🐕 he's rotten to the core. I am currently working a very stressful schedule which does not allow me the time that I would seriously love to have to spend with more or to care for that of others. You have to pay serious attention to details and not take everything to seriously dogs are our companions. Treat me just a such, because they deserve it

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Meltonville is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 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 163 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Meltonville. 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 Meltonville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
