“Mary Anne provided drop in visits for my elderly pup for one week. She did a fantastic job and provided many photos and a updates. I always worry when anyone is taking care of my dog but Mary Anne quickly put me at ease. I will definitely be booking with her for future drop ins.”
“Stacy is the best! The report cards we get after each visit are admittedly one of our favorite things to read when we’re on vacation, and Stacy always leaves the sweetest comments. Plus she’s great with medicating cats - we had a sudden eye issue pop up with our kitten that required eye drops, and Stacy handled it without issue. Stacy is incredible, we really can’t recommend her enough!”
“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”
About: I have professional dog walking/sitting experience from a license company in Atlanta called PetSitGirls. I understand how important communication is in building trust between pet owners and myself with me. You will get an update with every walk or visit and I will ensure you get nothing but professional dog walking/sitting experience with me. I currently work from home part time and am available to watch pets anytime. I do not leave home with animals in it for any extended period of time. I live in a safe walkable area and am able to give walks at any time. I am currently working from home and available to keep your pet company 24/7. I have a very clean, smoke free home.
“I had a fantastic experience with Sarah! Communication was excellent from start to finish. I really appreciated the regular photos and detailed updates after each walk-it gave me peace of mind. Cali looked so happy in all the pictures! I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
“Brianna is such a wonderful pet-sitter and person to have check on your animals!!! Genuinely could not say enough good things about our experience. She went above and beyond to make sure our senior cat & chickens were well taken care of. Thank you Bri for the peace of mind while we were out of town!”
“Diamond was great! Having her pop round to meet the pups the day before my trip away was ideal. Having never used Rover before I was apprehensive to how the process would work but Diamond put my mind at ease straight away. Not only is she a lovely person but I could tell she was responsible and that my two dogs would be in great hands. I was away for a couple of days, and she came over to feed, walk, play and give medication to the pups when needed. Diamond touched base with me on each visit and even sent through a picture to show they were doing fine. When the trip was over, we wrapped it up and spoke about future visits. If Diamond is available I will certainly be using her in the future. Thanks a bunch!”
“Rie was so great with our energetic gal! She made sure to give her physical exercise, love and mental stimulation. Her check in's and reporting was thorough and reassuring to a worrisome dog-mom 😊 Thanks for taking such great care of Canella 🙌”
About: I’m a huge animal lover and truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I’m very dependable and trustworthy, and I treat every animal with the same love and care I would give my own. I also make sure pets stay on their normal routines and always keep owners updated so they know their pet is happy and safe. I am known for being able to get animals to warm up to me rather quickly so I am a great sitter to have if your fur baby is nervous around new humans. This and Uber Eats are my full time jobs. I will only be gone for 2-4 hours in the evening for Uber Eats some days and will not be gone longer than 4 hours. I am very attentive to pet’s needs and listen closely to the owner’s instructions. No matter how big or small your animal is, dog or cat, I have unlimited patience and care.
“Rylie took amazing care of our two cats while we were in Europe for 9 days. Even got our very shy cat to hang out with her and gave them both ample playtime and attention. Boxes were scooped and house was in good shape when we got home as well. 10/10 will book again!”
“Selena is beloved by my older cat, Jeff. She caught all the details of his care routine and used great discretion of when to add in extra support as needed when she did drop-in visits with him over the holidays. Even when he had an upset stomach, she took care of him and the mess in a professional and compassionate way. I appreciate her kindness, level of detail in her care, and her thorough communication.”
About: Individual walks, Big Attention: Personalized Walks for Your Dog With over 20 years of dog care experience, I bring a real understanding of dogs to each walk. What makes my walks different: 🐾 Only your dogs get walked together. Your dog gets genuine attention, not a spot in a pack. I notice their mood, energy, and cues, every walk. 🐾 Paced to your dog, not the clock. Some days call for a slow sniff walk, letting them read every scent on the block. Other days they need to burn energy with a brisker pace. I adjust in the moment based on what your dog actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all route. 🐾 20+ years of hands-on experience. I've cared for dogs of multiple ages, breed, and temperament, from anxious rescues to high-energy puppies to easygoing seniors. That experience means I can read a dog quickly and respond calmly to whatever comes up. What you can expect: Photo/video updates from the walk GPS-tracked routes Consistent, reliable scheduling A walker who treats your dog like an individual, not a job on a list If you want a walker who slows down when your dog needs to sniff and speeds up when they need to run, let's talk about your pup. I run my business from home. My schedule is flexible. Your pup will get walks and a loving companion. Dogs are my true love and I absolutely adore spending time with them. I have a large fenced yard as well as a dedicated indoor area for pups. Your pup will be able to sit on the sofa with us and snuggle. My pup Bernie loves making friends. They will keep busy
“Alexis and Jacob were quick to respond and help with drop in visits to take care of my cat on such short notice. My senior cat is incredibly picky and stubborn with feeding. However, Alexis and Jacob were attentive to the instructions to get my cat fed and also had success with my very stubborn kitty. They went above and beyond to attend to the litter box and any other needs my cat had. I’m so grateful for their care with my Hank!!”
About: 🐾 My Daily Pet Care Routine I provide a comfortable, loving, and structured environment for every dog in my care. I work to follow each pet parent’s normal routine as closely as possible while making sure their pup receives plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, and affection throughout their stay. 🌅 Morning: Our first outdoor potty break is typically between 7:00–8:00 AM. ☀️ Lunch: Around lunchtime, we head outside for a good walk and potty break, giving your pup an opportunity to stretch their legs, explore, and get some fresh air. 🍽️ Dinner: Dinner and another outdoor break are typically around 6:00–7:00 PM. I will always follow your preferred feeding schedule and instructions. 🌙 Bedtime: We have one final walk and potty break between approximately 8:00–10:00 PM before settling in for the night. 🐕 On-Site Dog Park My apartment community has an on-site dog park, which gives us another convenient option for potty breaks, outdoor time, and play. The space may be especially comfortable for smaller breeds, although I regularly see dogs of different sizes using it for quick outdoor and potty breaks. Our community also provides dog waste stations and complimentary poop bags, making it easy to keep the area clean and comfortable for everyone. 🦴 Pet Supplies & Feeding I come prepared with dog bowls, treats, and dog food. However, I strongly encourage pet parents to provide their dog's usual food whenever possible so we can avoid unnecessary dietary changes or upset stomachs. I will follow the feeding schedule, portions, treats, and other instructions you provide. ❤️ Lots of Love Included Affection is always included! I love giving my four-legged guests cuddles, attention, companionship, and plenty of love. After losing my beloved dogs Mylo and Leo, caring for other people's pets has become especially meaningful to me. Every pup who stays with me gets treated with kindness and affection while their family is away. 💜 Affordable Pet Care If you look at my listed rates and they're outside your current budget, please don't hesitate to message me anyway. Tell me about your pet, the dates you need care, and what you're working with financially. When possible, I'm happy to discuss adjustments and find an arrangement that works for both of us. I understand that expenses can add up quickly, especially in today's economy. I want dependable, loving pet care to remain accessible while still providing your pet with the attention and quality of care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! 🐾 I'm currently a remote worker from home. So they will have access to me at my home 24/7. Our daily current schedule is as follows. 5am wake up 530 potty time 9am breakfast and walk 2pm long walk 5-6pm Dinner 8pm+ Quiet time with our blankets and dog TV time I have a secured apartment and we always make sure the dogs are leashes first before opening the door to go outside. I am conveniently located next door to a local bike path where we walk and run.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Metzger
Mary Anne did a fantastic job pet sitting our cat. We enjoyed our vacation more than ever knowing that she was well. Taken care of. Everything was in order when we returned and we will definitely definitely use her again. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Mary Anne.
Alex is awesome! They were great with my cat who needs daily meds. Super communicative w/ quick response times & was also flexible when I gave info/asked for things I didn’t think to give on the initial meetings. Will def return to Alex for next time I’m out of town!
Stacy was great! Our cat loved her, she provided us with a couple daily updates, and sent us pics every time. It was our first long trip away from our cat, and Stacy gave us great peace of mind the entire time. We’ll definitely ask her to come back, and we can’t recommend Stacy enough!
Melanie was amazing! She came to help Otie on short notice on Halloween and arrived right away. She was so warm and welcoming with him, and they became fast friends. She sent me photo and video updates, and Otie even gave her several kisses—which he usually saves for me and his dad! I’m especially grateful that Melanie stayed the full hour to make sure Otie ate a complete meal after he’d thrown up bile on an empty stomach. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine care put me at ease. I’m so thankful she was there for him, and I would absolutely recommend her!
Would highly recommend Matthew. He was great with communication and went above and beyond. Even though it was his first time caring for pet rats, he did such a wonderful job and made sure that he understood exactly what they needed. He was very attentive and made us feel at ease while we were away on a family trip. Would definitely use him again 😊
Lauren took great care of our shy cat and made sure to give him the space he needed, while also playing and interacting with him in a way that made him comfortable. She even cleaned up any messes we had while we were gone, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend her as a sitter!
Jessica was amazing!! I booked Jessica very last minute and she was responsive and listened to all my needs for my cat with separation anxiety who takes medications. Jessica send tons of photos and let me know how each visit went. I will definitely book with Jessica again :)
Brianna is such a wonderful pet-sitter and person to have check on your animals!!! Genuinely could not say enough good things about our experience. She went above and beyond to make sure our senior cat & chickens were well taken care of. Thank you Bri for the peace of mind while we were out of town!
Alina was wonderful. She was very responsive and sent pictures of our dog during her check in. We knew Lady was in good hands when she stopped by before the day to meet and get to know Lady. My dog immediately felt at ease with Alina. Would absolutely ask Alina to care for my dog again.
Hannah did a great job taking care of both my cats, including one nearly 14 year old and one one year old cat. The older one requires medication twice a day. I was given detailed updates and many pictures from each check-in. The cats looked really happy, and the house was really clean when I came home (9 day job, two visits each day). I am fortunate to find her, and hope to hire to her again!
Alyssa is fabulous! She did drop in visits while I was out for long days for a convention. The dogs had a great time. I appreciate Alyssa's attention to detail, her understanding of dog behavior and her gift to get to know each pet as an individual. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Metzger is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 6,644 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Metzger. 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 Metzger. On Rover:
- 89% 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.
