About: I’ve had at least 1 dog living with me and my family since I was born, so I grew up helping take care of all our dogs throughout the years. Our current dog is a Pomeranian that acts more human than dog sometimes. I’m a current student at SCAD so classes take up most of my time, but on weekends and nights I am way more available to help out. I love animals so much, whether they be small fluffy little puppies, old yet dignified cats, or even reptilians just vibing in their own little spaces, I never want any animals to be upset or get hurt, so I’ll do whatever I can to make sure your pet receives the best care I can offer.
“Shawna was awesome, very professional. Followed all our requests and took great care of our kitties. Sent information everyday and photos. Definitely recommend and will hire again.”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and large breeds. As the owner of two Golden Retrievers, I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. I'm patient, dependable, and happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll care for yours as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind! I'm available most weekdays and weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive care for your pets. I schedule my day around the pets I'm caring for, not the other way around, so they receive regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, playtime, and lots of love. I strive to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away! Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines you provide. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else. I'll treat your furry family member like one of my own, provide regular photo and video updates, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, including anxious pets who may need extra patience and reassurance!
About: I have 7 years of experience caring for dogs and currently have three mini dachshunds of my own. I also regularly watch dogs for friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets plenty of attention and care. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I work part-time, so my availability varies throughout the week. I’m usually available in the mornings, on certain weekdays, and can be flexible with walks, drop ins, feeding, and playtime depending on my work schedule. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep feeding and potty schedules consistent, provide plenty of attention and playtime, and always make sure pets are in a clean and secure environment.
About: I grew up with three dogs, so taking care of pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, whether it’s spending time with dogs, visiting cat cafés, or stopping by the humane society to hang out with the animals there. I’m patient, dependable, and I’ll make sure your pets get the attention, care, and love they deserve while you’re away. Have also house and plant sat for people over the years and always enjoyed helping out. I work full time, so I have a consistent routine and know how to manage my time well. I’m available before and after work, on my days off, and can work with pet owners to make sure their pets stay on their normal schedule. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to giving every pet the care and attention they deserve. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep doors secured, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and fresh water. I also like to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“This was our first booking with Jordan and it was great! She was prompt, professional, and kind. Our dog is slow to warm up to new people but Jordan was able to easily spend time with him and take him on a long walk with no problems. I highly recommend Jordan. In fact, we have two more services booked with her already!”
About: I adore animals, and with me, your pet will always remain safe and pampered. I have a long history of animal care, having grown up raising and caring for just about anything you could imagine. I am a college student and athlete, and I am an expert at juggling my workload. I can be wherever needed at any point, except when I have class or soccer games. I believe in treating everything with proper respect and care, especially when that entails others' property. I have no issue cleaning messes made by pets, and will always do my best to prevent any misshaps.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mount Sterling is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $26 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.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
