“Enjoyed having Samantha take care of Bailey and Goose. On time each day, made sure Bailey’s meds were administered to her every morning. Sure to give her a call when I leave on vacation.”
“Adrienne was great with my 2 dogs! They both took to her immediately and her communication was great about how the visit went. She also sent lots of pictures and I can see that my dogs were very comfortable with her. She also has experience with dogs with a more special needs because my older gal has cancer, and has had a major surgery and she was very attentive to all of that. I will be using her as often as I can!”
“Kayla is wonderful! Very sweet and patient with both of my pups (7 y/o shepherd mix and 15.5 y/o Bichon). Took on the little bit of extra care my older dog needed too! On time to all visits and kept me posted with everything going on and some very cute pics. You can tell they were happy and well taken care of! Highly recommend!”
“Lindsey is the best, hands down! She gave very detailed update and spent a lot of time loving on my dog. Unfortunately, she had to clean up several potty messes and brought her own cleaning supplies and left a paper towel roll for me since I was out at home. Lindsey is absolutely the best rover sitter I’ve experienced and I will book again. Thank you so much!”
“Sebnem took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were comfortable and provided lots of photo/video updates which really helped ease the stress of being away from our fur babies. I would 100% re-book with Sebnem for future cat sitting.”
“Ashley is so sweet and kind and took great care with my baby Rico. She came daily on schedule to feed water and play with Rico. She took care of his litter box and hung out with him. She sent me great pictures and Rico looked very happy. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone that has a fur baby. She even left a very thoughtful note and treats to welcome me home!! A+++. Loved her!! Thank you Ashley💖”
“This was the second time we trusted our pets with Nichole. She was amazing again, her daily updates and photos are very detailed, she's always on time, and our dogs love her!”
“Jimmy was very responsive, kind, and patient with our kitty who was too freaked out by our absence to come out of hiding much of the time. He made sure she had everything she needed and snagged a photo of her for us every time, though. Will definitely hire again!”
“Zoila is truly amazing! She came over the week before our trip to meet the cats and learn all the in and outs of taking care of them. We had a kitten and she required a lot of special care and Zoila had no problems managing it. She is super responsive and sends frequent updates. I felt so comfortable with my cats in her care. We will most definitely being using Zoila again!”
“Christine was an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond in taking care of my pup. Communication was fantastic, and she even brought along one of my dog's favorite tennis balls for a fun-filled trip to the dog park. The photos she sent showed just how much fun they were having. Christine even took the initiative to bring in a package for me without being asked. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be calling on her again. Five stars all the way!”
“Izzy was incredible! She went above and beyond. This was the first time using rover and couldn’t be happier. Having a senior kitty who needs medicine is always nerve wracking but she handled it so well. All the updates made a difference and I would recommend her to anyone.”
“She was awesome and so sweet with the cats. Super prompt, on time, and did great with whatever the cats needed while I was away. So happy with her service. Will be requesting her as a sitter for my cats again!”
“Miki did a great job taking care of my kitten princesses while we were gone for a week. The daily check-ins with pics made me comfortable that they were well taken care of while we were gone!”
“John was AMAZING! So kind and took amazing care of my animals. He was also very punctual too and provided tons of pics and feedback on how the walks went and general behavior. Will definitely be looking to book him again if he is available!!”
“Min has been wonderful. She sent me both videos and pictures of her visit. Samson was happy. She continually asked questions so she can meet all of his needs. She even gave compliments on how my fur baby was behaved and well mannered. Just a very kind person. Definitely will use her again”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Murphy
Sophia was super nice and easy to communicate with, due to last minute changes of plans I was unable to schedule a visit with her before I met (though she did offer). I sent her some details about how to navigate getting to the residence and care instructions for my cat and she took great care of her and sent me lots of photos. Would recommend scheduling her in the future for myself and others.
Zoila took on our cat sitting booking on fairly short notice and it went perfectly! She was a great communicator and made sure to clarify any questions she had about the cat's feeding schedule. We also had a few random mishaps around the apartment that she very kindly handled for us so we weren't stressed out about it while we were out of town . I would highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Murphy on Rover is $16.05 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 7,433 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Murphy. 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 Murphy 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 with handling special pet needs in Murphy. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
