“Rachel did such a great job with our dog. She did drop-ins 3 times a day and was great about sending photos each time. She understood that our dog is shy and anxious at first and knew how to approach her in a calm and caring way. She warmed up to Rachel quickly! We will definitely have her watch our puppy again!”
“Kandice did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. Roy and Ewok both said that she was very nice to them, scooped their litter boxes, fed them and gave them snacks. And Ewok got pets. Kandice sent me updates on their activities and pictures of them every day.”
“Morgan was great! She met with us prior to our visit to meet Gracie. She was prompt in responding to our request and questions. She took great care of Gracie for her drop in visit. Thank you Morgan!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since a very young age.. I am experienced with dogs I’ve worked with dogs in the past as well as worked at doggy daycares/vets in the past. My schedule is relatively open so even if you need someone to come and walk the dog a couple times a day I can do that! I have experience with giving dogs medication and am able to help out with that as well. I watched a few dogs in the past that were seniors and needed special care with meds so I have experience in that category:) at the moment i am not working so this actually works out very well with me im relatively open for pet care:) i just have a few scattered doctors appointments throughout the week in my clients home I will make sure to follow any rules and or guidelines that are expected of the animals and myself obviously as I am in someone else’s home..
About: I’ve had the privilege to house sit, dog walk, and LOVE 💙, my friends and clients fur babies. I make sure all of their needs are taken care of. I’m currently working 4 AM to 1230 Monday through Thursday and Saturday, but as of April 16, I’ve decided the love and passion I have for caring for your babies excite me a lot more. I will be more available to accompany your needs while you’re away for work or on a vacation with your family, yet I have had many clients& their babies have no issues when I housesit/dog walk. I treat animals with love, care, and respect as if they were my own. I will follow your directions on how your fur baby likes to be cared for.

I can provide daily care as well as overnight care for your pet. For one year I also worked as a kennel assistant at a vets office. As a kennel assistant, I cared for max 12 dogs in the boarding center. While dogs were in boarding I provided daily care, cleaned kennels, and gave baths as needed.

About: Pets have been a part of my life since I was five years old. My life has been devoted to their health and quality of life by being a certified veterinary technician and also working in the veterinary and Humane Society field. Able to do all types of medical care for animals. I am recently retired from a full-time job and would love to do something I enjoy and I am very good at due to all my years of experience. Due to my own 4 Golden Retrievers and other barn animals, I cannot take any dogs into my home. I sure would if I could.
About: I grew up in a household with dogs, cats, and many other animals, so caring for pets has always been a part of my daily life. I recently worked in a vet clinic for many months, which gave me greater exposure to animal health and responsible pet care. I also cared for a senior cat for many years and gained experience managing medical and nutritional needs, administering medications, and paying close attention to changes in behavior or health. I currently have all day on most days to do to drop-ins and dog walks! I am available after 4:30 for house sitting, depending on what your pups’ needs are. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow detailed instructions, including medication, feeding, and other special care.

I’ve lived with and helped raise a mid-sized terrier mix and a large Rottweiler mix. Im looking forward to meeting your furry family members and hopefully giving you some peace of mind that they well be safe and adored while you’re away. I’m currently in my last semester of undergrad and saving up for grad school. I spend a lot of my time volunteering but have no firm work schedule. I will visit every day or stay overnight with your pets to make sure they are safe, well-fed, exercised, watered, and pottied. I love to read with a cat beside me or go for a nice walk with your dog. Let me know what your pet needs! Everyone is different.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. We have 3 family dogs that I currently live with at home.

I adore dogs and hope to help you with yours! I currently work at a daycare dog lodge. I would ultimately have to work around that. I typically work mornings which are 6am-1:30pm. Other than that your dog has all my attention and will get all the love+ cuddles! I have a fenced in yard where all my 3 dogs play and hangout. They absolutely love it! All my dogs are very friendly. I don’t offer at home sitting just because one of my dogs is unpredictable! But i’m more than happy to come to yours and do all that you need me to do for your pup!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Prairie is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 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 2,107 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Prairie. 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.

- 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
