“Erin was fantastic, very responsive, sent messages and photos with every visit! Had no worries and alleviated all my stress with traveling. Will definitely be my go to in the future!”
“Charlie took great care of my senior cat, Cecil while I was away for the weekend! He did drop in visits for food, medicine and to let him outside. He even made a separate trip back to close the back access door before nighttime, which I really appreciated. CeCe and I would love to have him back in the future. :)”
“Lauren did an excellent job with my cats, one who happens to be diabetic. I could tell she is truly an animal lover, and took such great care of them. She listened well, and followed the instructions I gave her. She is willing to learn and also very personable. This was my first experience using a pet sitter other than a friend, and I will be very comfortable hiring Lauren again in the future! Thank you Lauren for giving us peace of mind while we were away!”
“Elizabeth took great care of our furry family members this weekend. Both the dogs were calm and happy when we got home. Elizabeth is such a pleasant lady and she is very patient with the dogs. We are blessed to have found her and for her help this weekend. We will be calling on her again in the future.”
About: I’ve been a pet lover ever since I’m a kid. I own 7 cats and they are my whole heart, I truly love them more than anything else. I would love nothing more than to help you and your pet in a time of need ❤️ Currently, I live in my own home with my seven kitties. I typically wake up around 5 am and spend a bit of time with my animals and feed them and clean their boxes and all that other fun stuff! Caring for my pets is my number one priority, they truly do mean the world to me. I strive to create a pet friendly environment where my animals and yours will be happy and comfortable! My seven babies are comfortable with other cats and are for the most part comfortable with dogs. My two cats, Nala and Val, are quite skittish but arrangements can be made so that they aren’t around dogs if need be. I have a spare bedroom that is mostly for the cats with litter boxes and toys set up, but that room can be used for boarding or just to give our animals a bit of time to get used to each other! If you have a dog who likes to run around outside, accommodations can definitely be made for that as well! My yard is not fenced in, but it’s spacious enough that I can run around with your pup! Truly, whatever accommodations you need, I am happy to help.
“Staci did a great job with my elderly cocker spaniel. I felt very secure knowing that she was taking care of her during my vacation out of town. I received several pictures and updates on how she was doing while I was gone. I would definitely book her again to care for Tulla. Thank you, Staci?”
“Rachel was professional, kind, and caring to our cat over the course of a week and a half. She skillfully administered his medication on the days he needed it, and went above and beyond to play with him, cuddle with him, snap photos, and get him fed and taken care of, all in a couple of visits each day. She consistently communicated with us, and delivered reports of her time with our cat after each visit. We highly recommend her to any and all pet owners!”

Jessica did a great job with our cat Scotty. Gave him lots of cuddles and playtime and kept his food and water bowl filled. Also scooped the litter box. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. Very reliable and definitely an animal lover. Would use Jessica again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Painted Post is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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 145 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Painted Post. 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.

- 89% 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.
