“Theresa was absolutely wonderful! She was prompt and reliable and so attentive to our cats. Theresa is clearly an animal person and we will book her again in a heartbeat!”
“We’re excited for Sophie to watch our cats in a few weeks, and this was a great practice night! She is friendly and clearly cares about the pets in her care. One of ours needs meds, and she handled it perfectly! We were incredibly comfortable with her caring for them.”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals with a variety of cats and dogs. I’ve learned a lot through fostering pets and volunteer work. I am very passionate about working with and caring for animals! I am a college student currently in Champaign. I have class during the day but have plenty of time to work with animals in my free time! I am willing to come over and take care of your pets depending on their needs! I am also open to dog walking and other services. I do have my own pets at home so I do not offer services in my own home.
About: I grew up taking care of our family dogs, cats, birds, fish, guinea pigs, snakes, tarantulas, and horses. With my love and closeness to animals growing up, I continued into the veterinary medicine world after high school and have worked within clinic settings for the past 7 years! I am experienced and comfortable with administering both oral and injectable medications, bathing, and much more. I plan to become a certified veterinary technician as well in the near future. While I do work full time during the week, I am still often able to accommodate multiple visits a day due to my lunch break! I don’t mind an early morning to make sure your pets are taken care of before the workday either. Because mid-day visits are on my break, the time I will be available for these visit will be dependent on the travel time. As my apartment is too small to accommodate any dogs or additional cats, I would be treating your home with the utmost respect! It’s your (and especially your pet’s) safe space, and that needs to be protected. I will always clean up after any messes if they are made by your pet and reach out to make sure you’re aware!
About: I have worked at a vet clinic for 5 years as a vet assistant so I’m very knowledgeable in the field. I have taken care of family dogs and 1 personal dog. My schedule right now is variable every week. I have tried to put my availability for November. Please feel free to message me anytime and I’ll see if I can help! I will only be available to go over to the client’s house. I will treat your pet with respect and how I treat my baby.
“My German Shepherd dog fell in love with Tanya at first sight! She's obviously loves animals. Everything went great, will definitely book Tanya again! Appreciated the photos of my dog and cat while I was away!”
“Xiaotong was absolutely wonderful! My kitties were loved on and well taken care of, and she is great at communicating! Will definitely be looking to rebook next time I leave town.”
“Brit was wonderful with my pups and took excellent care of them. I will hire her again and recommend her to anyone needing in home care for their fluffy family members.”
“Karen is much more than a Rover for us. She takes care of our baby Smokey with a lot of love and goes the extra mile with making sure everything is tidied up for when we arrive, amazing 5 stars 🙏🏻🙌🏻🤩 Thank you so much, Karen!”
About: I grew up with animals, and am experienced with taking care of cats and dogs. In Champaign, I have had four cat over different times and now I have a Doodle dog, who is a caring and loving gentleman! I am mostly available in the morning, late afternoons, and early evenings. Other times I spend my time studying at the library and trying to graduate toward my PhD degree. I live in a house and have lots of free space. We have a fenced yard with short fences that work for our large doodle just fine. However, if your fur baby is an escape artist, our fence might be too short and flimsy...
“Zoey took great care of our cat (who loved her) and was very attentive to the instructions we left her. She sent lots of photos during drop-ins, and even went above and beyond by watering our plants and bringing in mail (which included a hefty Chewy package). Would definitely recommend!”
About: Hello! I’m a first year veterinary student with 3 years experience as a veterinary assistant at a small animal general practice. I’m skilled in safe animal handling, physical restraint, preventative care, and administering medications. I’m Fear Free Certified and always prioritize low-stress, compassionate care. Moreover, I’m comfortable with sitting for senior pets with medical needs. I have personal experience managing chronic illness in my own dog for 2+ years, including giving at-home subcutaneous fluids and consistent oral medications. I have experience with bathing and would be more than happy to offer baths or nail trims upon request for an additional charge. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priority. As a student, I attend classes during the weekday, but my schedule allows me to run home during lunch breaks and between classes for potty breaks, feedings, and check-ins. My evenings are completely free, so your pet will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship during the evening hours and will not be left alone. My home is a townhome with no pets and no children, providing a calm and controlled environment. There is plenty of space for pets to move around comfortably, and I can easily accommodate crates or set up separate areas if needed. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s established routines and household rules, including furniture access and sleeping arrangements, to help them feel at home.
“Zohreh really went above and beyond with caring for my cat, and was very attentive to her needs. She was great with communication and shared plenty of pictures each visit which I always appreciate.”

I’m responsible, active, and excited to help look after your furry family members! What I Offer: Reliable Walks: Energetic, engaging walks to help your dog burn off steam and enjoy the neighborhood. Drop-In Visits: Friendly check-ins for feeding, fresh water, playtime, and potty breaks. Safe & Flexible: I have my own reliable transportation and a flexible schedule around my classes, making it easy to fit into your routine.

Macy took great care of my two cats while I was out of town. Everything went according to plan and the cats were in great shape when I returned. She communicated with photos and messages during her visits and even managed to spend a few moments with our shy boy who tends to stay hidden.
I thought Theresa was completely outstanding. She really went above and beyond taking care of my two larger dogs, who both need a little extra hand-holding. She even took the time to hand-feed my younger, anxious dog to make sure she was eating and was comfortable. She was also really aware of the fact that my dogs can be territorial around food and made sure the environment was safe and worked for what they each needed. I also thought she did a fantastic job gauging the safety of the environment and paying attention to the weather. We had a heatwave this weekend, and she was really tuned in to the dogs during their outdoor walks and made sure they were safe and comfortable. I loved the photo updates, too. And I don't know if this is just a normal Rover feature, but it was really fun being able to see the routes she took while walking them! Communication was absolutely perfect throughout the whole stay. I also really appreciated the time she took to come to our home beforehand, meet the dogs, and meet us as a family. She asked thoughtful questions and really took the time to understand our dogs and what they needed, which gave me a lot of confidence going into the weekend. My two dogs are very special and very beloved, but they are also high-care, high-anxiety dogs who need a lot of reassurance and attention. Theresa was wonderful with them, and I would absolutely have her care for them again. I highly recommend her!
Rachel was such a caring and kind sitter for our two precious kitties. We are very grateful to have found Rachel and plan on hiring her for future pet sitting needs! She did everything we asked and more, and really spent time trying to get to know and understand our cats, which we appreciated. She sent great updates with every drop in visit. We came home to two very happy kitties who were well taken care of and appreciated Rachel’s care, too. Thanks so much!
Xiaotong is an amazing cat sitter. She was very communicative and always kept me in the loop with my cats. I left her some written and verbal care instructions which were all followed perfectly. Her rover cards were very detailed and came with plenty of photos. My cats decided to rummage through a couple of my trash bins, something they have never done before. Xiaotong was very understanding, going above and beyond cleaning up after my cats' mess. I would definitely book again!
Breonna was amazing with our dogs and cat. They’re not comfortable with most people, but they loved her and even our cat who never talks to anyone came out to say Hi to her. She cared for them during our 8 day trip out of the country. We felt at peace the entire time, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to care for our babies. We definitely will use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone needing care and love for their babies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mira is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $4 and $25 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 349 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mira. 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 Mira. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% 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.
