About: I have always loved caring for animals. I have experience with my own pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, and horses. I have also house and pet sat for friends and family over the years. I have a pretty flexible schedule right now and would be happy to help provide the best life for your four legged family. Currently, in the process of changing jobs. Availability early morning and through days as needed. Scheduling ahead of time helps me plan my day around my pets and yours. I am available for drop in visits and dog walking/activities with pets. I am happy to provide recreation and enrichment activities in your home. I currently have my own dog and two cats, and would need to have a meet and greet for any pets I watch in my home before their stay to ensure they would mesh well. I am available for daily care or extended stays in your home.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats from shelters to patients in the work field. I have received an associates in veterinary technology and am fear free certified. I love getting the zoomies out and the tail wags going for a positive, safe, and happy time. I’m currently working as a veterinary assistant, where i can be mainly available in the afternoon/later evenings and weekends. Days may vary and may be available throughout the day. I understand new people can be scary to our fur babies, but allowing time for them to get to know me on their time will allow a more stress free time. I am able to love, care, provide medication, crate, feed, and walk your pup.
“We absolutely loved having her care for our furry babies while we were away on fall break! ❤️ They all loved her immediately, and she went above and beyond by visiting twice a day and spending a full hour with them each time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our babies were getting so much love and attention while we were gone. We are so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their pets! 🐾💕”
About: I love animals and I’ve been around them most of my life! I have a dog of my own that I’ve had for 11 years, so I’m very familiar with their behaviors and how to take care of them! Pet care fits into my daily routine as I am currently studying Wildlife Biology and minoring in Aquatic Science at Purdue University. I believe this will be the perfect opportunity to get me started in my animal career! I live in town so it’s perfect to take your dog on a walk whenever they need to go outside! I do have a crate if needed and I have a small dog of my own that I’m sure your dog would love the company. Also, I’m willing to take care of your pet at your home so whatever routines you have to take care of your pet I will follow! I love taking pictures of my pets, so I can definitely take some of your animals too.
About: I’ve taken care of many animals, including, but not limited to, chickens, ducks, sheep, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, and fish. I have personally raised bottle-fed baby sheep and puppies. I am also currently in school to become a veterinarian. I am one for preventing injuries and things like GDV, bacterial infections, etc., and so I plan walks and sniffing accordingly. My world revolves around animals, so I make sure they are taken care of before myself. I make sure my fur babies are fed, have clean water, are told that I love them, are scratched on the head, and maybe even have a bone. I walk them daily, and I always make sure they can sniff and smell everything they want, as long as they don’t eat anything. I have a fully fenced-in yard. I also make sure all of the dogs are in agreement with each other. I would also crate all animals when I am not at home, just for preventive measures. I do have cameras in the house and the backyard, so I can always stay aware. In the client's home, I am flexible with or without a fence. Either way, the pet's priority comes over mine, and I make sure the client and the pet are safe.
About: I have had pets all my life; I am the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family. I’ve even stayed with some fur babies for the week at a customer’s house who frequented the greenhouse i worked at. I also rescued a cuban tree frog from a tropical plant truck shipment from Florida- she has been with me for 3 years now. I also have a Chameleon who just turned 2! My three cats keep me busy and on my toes. I’ve had many dogs and would love to have one but it wouldn’t be ideal for my living situation. I am eager to have the opportunity to meet more people and pets! 😁 I would be available throughout the weekdays, i get off my job around 5:30 and would be available to travel and stay for a few hours in the evening; I am open to staying the night if needed. I sometimes work Saturday morning till noon but am open the rest of the weekend unless i have prior plans made. I am capable of performing any pet duties needed with love. Caring for animals is a passion of mine and I am excited to care for yours!
About: I have taken care of my own and other’s pets for over ten years. I currently have two cats of my own. I can’t wait to care for your furry friend! I am grade school teacher, so I have open availability during June and July. Other months, I will not have as much flexibility if your pet requires more frequent visits. I am comfortable doing a wide variety of activities with your pets. I have experience watching pets while owners are away as well as boarding in my home.
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was about 9 years old! I had a hamster growing up and we had two family dogs growing up. I have experience taking care of other people's animals as well as taking care of family pets such as my sister's dog (beagle mix) and my parent's dogs (two Chesapeake bay retrievers and a rescue hound). I also have experience taking care of cats for family & friends! I also have experience helping take care of newborn puppies, as my stepdad breeds Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. I love animals and I am very passionate about taking care of them and have always had a special place in my heart for them. As of right now I work full time, from 8am-5pm I am available evenings after 5pm and I am available on weekends. I could also potentially be available on my lunch break depending on the location, as I get an hour lunch break daily from 11am-12pm. I unfortunately can't offer in-home services at this time. I will be sure to follow any instructions or guidelines you need met for your fur-baby. I am a respectful individual and I will be sure your pet has the best care!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Owasco
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 326 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Owasco. 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 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 Owasco. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
