“We were very happy having Mamie (Mary) care for our two cats! She is a great communicator, particularly when it comes to letting you know how it's going with your pets. We have a cat who is recovering from an injury and we could tell from meeting Mamie - and later from her updates - that he was in good, attentive hands! She also had to play hide-and-seek a bit to keep up with our more timid cat, but she caught onto his patterns. We're glad we were able to book her and would highly recommend!”
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. My goal is to provide reliable care and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My schedule is very consistent, which allows me to provide reliable care for your pets. During the week, I'm available after 3:30 PM for walks, drop-in visits, and evening care. I also have morning availability on Mondays and Fridays before noon. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or a check-in while you're away, I'll work to provide the care they need and keep them happy and comfortable. When caring for pets, I treat them like members of my own family. I make it a priority to learn each pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I provide attentive, personalized care while maintaining the routines they're used to at home. I also keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are happy and in good hands.
“This was my first time ever using Rover for my cats and somehow I hit the jackpot and got so lucky finding Clareese. She almost immediately put me at ease with our meet and greet with how trusting and sweet her personality is. She ensured me of her history with caring for animals and how she treats every home as if it was hers. She took the best care for my babies that I could ask of someone. She communicated with me throughout each visit and very thoughtfully went above! This helped me tremendously during my time away being as this is always such a stress of mine when I have other people help with care. Clareese is an absolute sweetheart and did a phenomenal job and I absolutely would recommend her to others and hopefully be able to book her sometime soon! She even left me a welcome home note, so thoughtful and kind! Best of the best <3”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Oliver
Cailynn is amazing! She has excellent communication and is extremely helpful. She did so well with our dog and was able to help us out with multiple visits. I would highly recommend her care and services to anyone and would book her again if we ever needed care!
Elizabeth was fantastic! Panda can be a little difficult at times and Elizabeth handled all her needs with ease. Went above and beyond with the pictures and updates while we were away. Would definitely recommend her to anyone else who is needing a sitter! And will be using her again, when needed!
William was absolutely everything I was looking for!! I was in Switzerland for 8 days and was very nervous leaving my pup but I was continuously updated and kept in the loop about visits and how Loki was doing. William was VERY flexible as it was only a few days before my trip that i requested such a lengthy date for William to check in on Loki. I was updated with pictures and was reassured by William on how Loki was eating/drinking and acting every day. Loki absolutely adored Billy from the second they met. I will 1000000% be using Billy in the future for any of my needs with Loki. I couldn’t recommend him enough!!! If you need anyone, Billy is definitely the way to go!
Emma provided excellent care and love for our two dogs! She has great communication leading up to the visit and throughout so you know exactly how things are going. We are so thankful for her time and feel at ease knowing she takes great care of our furry friends.
Leia was incredible! She was incredibly caring with my pup and provided so many snuggles and love while I was away. Leia’s communication was top notch, which was really important for me as I left my dog in her care. I loved seeing the pictures and hearing all about how the visit went! Definitely will be using her in the future!
Gia is an exceptional Pet sitter and my dogs LOVE her. Gia is always on time and fantastic with the dogs. I got a new puppy this summer and Gia stepped right in to help with all that that involves. My older dog adores her. I was so comfortable leaving my girls with her. She is someone i would never hesitate to call. Fantastic sitter !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Mount Oliver is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $39 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 2,540 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Mount Oliver. 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Mount Oliver choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
