“Madison is an amazing cat sitter! My cat is extremely shy and rarely lets anyone pet her, but Madison was able to earn her trust and even get some pets in. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and cleaning up, and she went above and beyond by vacuuming my home. I could not be happier with her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
“Bridgette is so wonderful with my puppy. She is reliable, patient, communicative and so sweet. She practices commands and is so playful. I love all the pictures she takes the time to send. I truly feel like she treats my dog as if it were her own. She is what puppy-sitter dreams are made of!!”
About: I’ve been a pet parent myself for 10 years, caring for my own dog while looking after multiple cats. I’ve looked after friends and families animals so I am very comfortable stepping into new environments. I’ve gained hands on experience with pets that require medication (including pills, liquids, injections, etc). I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior animals who require a little extra patience. I love meeting each pet where they’re at. Whether it’s a gentle cuddle session or an energetic walk, i’ll match your pets energy making sure they feel loved and happy. I'm a student with a pretty steady routine, so I have reliable blocks of time for pet care. On weekdays, I'm free in the late mornings and early afternoons I have practice on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays but I'm back home by 9:30 AM. Weekends are more open, I always know my schedule ahead of time and can plan around it. I'm rarely away for more than a few hours at a stretch. I plan my week around confirmed bookings and make sure your pets care never overlaps with something else. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable. I always leave the home clean and like to send updates (whether it’s a text or a photo) after visits so you know how things are going. If anything comes up (a change in behavior, a mess, or something out of the ordinary), I’ll let you know immediately. I treat every pet and home like i’d want mine to be treated.
About: I have raised my German Shepherd since she was a puppy and trained her myself. We got compliments all of the time for her well behaved and nice selection of tricks. I grew up with cats as well and know that it takes some time to adjust to someone new, as I respect animals need for that period of adjustment. I have a genuine love for animals. I currently have two orange cats, Pumpkin and Butternut who are spoiled rotten. I’d love a chance to spoil your fur baby! I am currently a full time student at SLCC in the nursing program. I attend class every Wednesday and Friday from 8am-12pm which would be the only time I am unavailable during a typical week! If booking on a Wednesday or Friday morning, I would have to guarantee enough time for me to be at class on time. I am currently not offering boarding services, but I am offering house sitting services. I live in a townhome with no yard and have two cats that are not a fan of dogs.
“Jillian took the initiative in reaching out to coordinate access to our home, and was very timely in her visits. Her disposition is quite cat-friendly in my opinion! She provided detailed updates from each of her visits, and followed instructions for food, litter, playtimes and cuddles to a "T". So happy we had her help keeping our kitty cat company while we were out of town for the holidays :) Thanks Jillian!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. This varied over the years, but I have walked dogs, stayed at the owners house, or just letting them out to go to the bathroom. I have trained my current chocolate lab to the lovable dog she is today. I am great with animals and have had very little issues with animals in my past. I’m currently working a full time job that is a hybrid role that has flexibility to be fully remote. I have a very flexible schedule and should be able to make most schedules work. I will keep a dog in a fenced in area or always on a leash while taking them outside. I typical don’t have any issues getting a dog into a crate.
“Kristina was so great with my two dogs! She was always on time and would send me the cutest photos. She’s very dependable and I would recommend her to anyone else looking to trust someone with their fur babies.”
About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, and even have experience with gerbils, hamsters, and fish! I used to work at a dog boarding facility for about a year and have volunteered at a vet hospital and dumb friends league events! I'm currently a graduate student but I have plenty of free time throughout the week to come check in on your pet or walk them. I have Fridays-Mondays free and Wednesday mornings free. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am busier, but still able to check in with your pet before or after classes! I love establishing routines with pets, so following a set schedule from the client is a must. I want them to feel safe with me, so I will follow their boundaries and make for an anxiety-free and fun environment.
About: I have 2 active Australian shepherds that I care for. They go to the park twice a day! Both are very hyper so I always make sure to give them multiple walks as well as park time. I feed my dogs on a set schedule around 5-6pm with one large meal as well as a lighter meal in the morning. My dogs are always up to date with checkups and shots! I don’t play favorites and will divvy up play time equally. I owned multiple cats growing up as a kid as well as a Jack Russell Terrier during high school. I also have experience caring for exotic pets, such as rabbits/bunnies and have owned 2 previously. I work from home full time so I am able to care for multiple pets. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to walk my dogs multiple times per day and usually 2 long walks at the dog park. I wake up around 6am to walk them then work between 9-5pm. In between those hours I take my dogs out for a walk or two as well as entertain them on my breaks. We have plenty of dog toys available for them to entertain themselves. I allow my dogs to free roam the house because they’ve earned that privilege but crate time every now and then is also utilized. I also run a lot with my dogs, so if your dog enjoys runs I am happy to do that as well. I keep my dogs upstairs with me while I work or sometimes leave them downstairs where they nap on the couch and relax. I like to give my dogs dedicated decompression time in their crates after play time or during dinner. I have a fully fenced yard will plenty of space for your pets to roam. I will always treat your pet as if it were my own. Trust is not built in one day, but it can be lost instantly!
About: Hello! My name is Madi, and I love animals! Dogs, cats, any furry companion really. I have always loved animals, and bonding with them. They really are family, and bring magic daily. I have worked previously at Dogtopia boarding and daycare for dogs & tending to dogs. Pet care fits into my daily, and weekly schedule. At my home, I have 2 cats. Big animal lover. Currently, I work part-time for a senior living community and would love to spend time with furry friends providing companionship and support during daily or weekly visits. My cats are both curious, and have safety measures set up in my house. I’m also very comfortable with pet equipment / fences, if and when needed. I want them to feel safe, and have the freedom to run around and play too. They deserve to play, feel loved and be happy in their safe space too.
“Rachel was the best, she helped us last minute for our wedding day when our other sitter cancelled due to a funeral. She was so kind and helpful, we didn't have to worry about a thing. Thank you!”
About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life! My current family consists of two cats, a dog, fish, and even an axolotl! I have cared for the pets of my friends and families for years and I am looking to expand my resume outside of my immediate circle. I work part time and I’m available all day/night on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I work Tuesday-Friday and am available before and after work on those days. I will work with you to ensure everything is done correctly with your pet! I am flexible and open to any routines your pet has.
“Cassie was wonderful, caring, gentle, and prompt. She was so communicative, went above and beyond and took some of the cutest pictures. Cannot recommend enough to care for your pets! We’re lucky to have found her!”
“Leila is the best! She takes excellent care of my cats. I appreciate that she plays with them and gives me updates. She is super great to interact with, and really cares!”
“Yosis was unbelievably helpful with a last min drop in booking! I have one wild puppy and another senior. She went above and beyond. I would highly recommend her for drop in visits or overnight stays”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Murray
My husky, Tosh, is 14.5 years old with lots of health issues, and Beverly has been so great with him and all his needs (specifically mobility issues)! She sends plenty of pictures and updates, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. She’s always on time, very respectful of our home, and Tosh is always excited to see her. Having someone this trustworthy and responsible looking after him has been a Godsend. I’ll definitely be booking her again next time he needs a sitter.
Sarah really helped me out for a last minute long-term booking when my plans fell through right before an international trip. She was great! Frequent pics of the cats helped me feel little stress that they were taken care of while I was away. She also stayed longer one day when the batteries in my CO sensor died and the alarm was going off to make sure she and I talked and things were ok. Would definitely hire again, thanks Sarah!!
Chris and his wife, Alex, were once again amazing! They helped us out with a last minute booking request and we are so so grateful. Alex sent the best updates and photos, and also very clearly had our cats personalities figured out in no time😂. We are lucky to have found them-highly recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Murray is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $24 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 October 2026, there are 4,493 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Murray. 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 .
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.

- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 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.
