About: I grew up on 27 acres and we always had dogs. I have helped taken care of many breeds of dogs and I have a lot of experience potty training them. I will give them the love and care like they are my own. I work a PT job on Sunday and Monday, but I am available for the rest of the week for whatever needs that your fur baby requires. I have a fenced in yard in the back. I do have a crate available if needed. My dogs love other dogs and cats. I live on a dead end street and I walk my dogs down stacks road where there is not a lot of heavy traffic. Safety is of importance when it comes to all fur babies! 🐾🐾🐾
About: I’m a veterinary technician in college for animal science pre-vet! I have been a tech for 5+ years along with caring for my small and large animals! I have experience with hamsters, cats, dogs all ages and sizes, cats all ages and sizes, horses, cattle, goats, and sheep! I can give injection as well as administer oral medication. I am currently a full time technician along as well as full time student. I do pet sitting whenever I can. I always find a way to fit sitting in my schedule! And majority of the time it works out! I treat my clients pets as my own. I always plan a time prior to me sitting them to meet the pet and get a better understanding of them. I can administer medication, identify emergencies, I can do nail trims (always a plus), regular schedule feedings, walking, litter box cleaning, park time, etc.
About: I was raised in a rural area with 10 acres of land, and we have always had pets. I've always had a furry child; there has never been a moment in my life without one. I've had the pleasure of raising a variety of dogs throughout the years, as well as two cats. I now have a well-behaved, two-year-old black Lab named Jake. When he was just a tiny puppy, I started training him. He continues to pick up new skills despite having many masteries. I have given Jake all of his training and skills, and even though I have some training expertise, I am not a certified trainer. Jake and I spend a lot of time exercising because we enjoy being outside. Some days, we take a quick lap or two around the block, and others we go for a lengthier walk on the trails! I am a rule-follower, and your pet's health, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities. I am available for drop-in visits (bathroom breaks and feedings), walks, and baths (no grooming). If there is any way I can assist you with your furbabies, kindly let me know! I work three days a week at my full-time job and go to college full-time. I spend a lot of time at home and have time for walks, exercise, baths, and drop-in visits for potty breaks, feedings or check in on your fur babies. I am currently unable to accept any pets for boarding or home-sitting for more than a few hours due to my work and academic commitments. Your pets will be treated the same way I treat mine: as members of the family. At times, my Jake virtually owns the home! While I do let my baby sit on my furniture, I will always abide by your house's pet-related rules. Just make sure to let me know what they are so I can make sure we're acting properly. Currently, I am not available at this time for pet boarding. I do charge for pet baths and it's arranged by weight. Rover only lets me set one price for all and I don't charge one price for all dogs. Please message me if you're interested in having your pet washed and ill tell you my price based on their size/weight.
“This is the third time I placed my baby Zeus in Aniyah's care and she was wonderful! She's always punctual, sends numerous photos, and always goes above and beyond to put your mind at ease while you're away. I will definitely continue depending on her to care for Zeus.”
About: Love taking care of dogs. I like walking with dogs at the park and playing with them. Also do not mind dropping in to visit them. Also love playing with cats Current working in the afternoon so I have free time during the morning from 6:30 am-12 pm during Mon through Friday. Also sometimes on the weekend as well I am available times vary. I have a fenced yard and can play with your dog outside my yard as long as I can have your dog in a leash if needed. I live near a park and can easily walk your dog if needed here at home.I have a French bulldog as well that can play with your dog or I can leave her in her crate if your dog is not dog friendly.
About: I have a lot of experience with pets, I currently have two small Yorkies at home. They get along with other dogs great, they mostly keep to themselves and both are potty trained. I can pick-up/drop off if needed early or late, and my backyard is fenced and kind of big but not too big. I have a lot of free time since it’s summer and I’m out of college till fall. Frequent walks or runs would be great if your dog is very active. I live in a quite neighborhood near a few parks and walking trails, I try to go running when ever I can. I have dog sat dogs many times and only one cat, no breed preferences. Can provide daily exercise.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Palmer is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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 November 2026, there are 3,257 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palmer. 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 Palmer. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
