“Xinia was amazing to work with, she went above and beyond for us while we were out of town for the holiday weekend. We were super happy with her communication and with her care for our pups. Would definitely recommend and will book again!”
About: I've worked with dogs for 7 years now. Helping family and friends with pet care and training as well as eventually branching out to occasionally taking dog training clients. I am currently studying with the International School of Canine Psychology and would love to make dog training and walking a full time business. I foster as well! I am currently studying with the ISCP and taking on private clients so I will be available friday, saturday, and sundays after 11am! In the near future, there will be more days available for services. As a walker, I ensure your dogs safety through gear checks to ensure harnesses or collars fit properly and to make sure the leash is properly attached. I also am very diligent and observant of my surroundings when I'm out with my personal dogs and client dogs. Safety is key! I will also bring a small backpack with water, a collapsible bowl, waste bags, and a small emergency first aid kit for dogs.
About: I have two dogs, a Golden Retriever (Nova) and a German Shepard (Blitz). I've had Nova since she was 8 weeks old and I've had Blitz since he was 3 months old. I've also grown up around dogs my whole life. I am a stay at home mom with a lot of time on my hands. I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs of my own to keep your fur babies happy. My dogs love playing with other dogs, we used to take them to the dog park (when we lived in Arizona) twice a week.
About: I’ve cared for pets for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medications, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to provide the care your pet is used to receiving at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine and will keep you updated with messages and photos throughout their stay. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and pay close attention to a pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
“Tawna was timely, sent regular updates and my Kids (pups) were healthy and happy, so that's all matters to me.. OH and props for Tawna being able to handle my bulldozer of a boy, nearing his terrible 2s (8 in pup years).”
“Taryn did great with our pups. She did exactly what we asked her to with them and gave lots of snuggles. She was also super flexible with us and very respectful of our home, we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I used to be certified in Veterinary Assisting when I lived out of state and worked at a dog day care and boarding facility for many years. I do work a full time job at a bank, so I have availability every afternoon to help fit in evening walks. With that being said, most of my weekends are also free. I have a fenced in yard that keeps my dogs contained while they are out and provides ample amount of running space. I have experience and knowledge in group play.
“Kyla was wonderful with our 2 cats. Her time was flexible and she was easy to book with over Christmas. During our initial meet and greet, the natural way she interacted with both Magik and Spooky, learning her history with animals, and her authenticity put my nerves at ease. During our time away, Kyla kept us up to date on her visits, how our cats were doing and included pictures. When we returned home, both cats were happy doing great. Kyla will be our go to anytime we are away.”
About: Experienced pet sitter and proud pet parent to a corgi and two cats!

As a young professional with plenty of free time before starting my full-time job, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, attentive care. As a young professional with plenty of free time before starting my full-time job, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, attentive care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Mount Vernon on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 30 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mount Vernon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mount Vernon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
