We needed a last minute pet sitter and Joyann was able to take us last minute. She was highly responsive and communicative, and took great care with our fur babies, we were very lucky to find her!

Kat entered my house with such a great attitude. My dogs took to her immediately. Once I saw that, I knew they were in good hands. Kat went above and beyond to make sure my boys were well fed and looked after. I highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed!

About: I have grown with dogs, particularly yorkshire terriers, since I was 4. I understand and love dogs, and have cared for family pets! I have taken care of animals of various breeds, age, and sizes. Although most of my experience is with small dogs, owning 6 yorkshire terriers, I have taken care of family pets, such as Blue Heelers, Huskies, and Great Danes. I love any and all dogs with all my heart. It is always an honor caring for ones pets, and it is an honor I will gladly do forever. I am currently a full time college student, (trying) to work a part-time job. Since we are on break, I am free everyday, any time, until late August/early September. I will update this once I (hopefully) get a job :) and if there are any changes. I am always willing to make a meet & greet, to ensure your comfort! Being a dog owner, I understand if you'd like to see if I am a good fit first. I will also keep consistent communication to give you peace of mine while you are away. sending photos and updates on your pets.

About: Hi there! I’m Kaylee, a veterinary technician with a passion for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. From playful puppies to senior sweethearts, I understand their unique needs — and I know how to keep them safe, happy, and healthy while you’re away. Because of my background, I’m trained to notice even the smallest changes in behavior or health, administer medications if needed, and provide calm, confident care in any situation. I am currently unemployed due to relocation, so I have full availability and can spend all day caring for your baby if preferred at home! When I care for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest — just as you would. I make sure they have plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise while maintaining the same rules and boundaries they’re used to.

About: I've been a dog owner since I was 8 years old. We used to have two German shepherds a father & son. Vasco the father was a K9 imported from Netherlands very well trained and would obey all types of rules like sit, stay, come, quiet, etc. An interesting fact was that all his commands were in Dutch language. Yoko was our other dog we never really trained him like his father, but he was very well loved and taken care of he recently died back in 2022. I have an autistic brother who really loved both of them we haven't had a pet of our own since then, so we decided to start sitting dogs as I work most of the time from home and it helps my brother out greatly! We can assure you that your dog will be well taken care of with us! We can work with having pets inside or outside our property we just need owners to tell us where they keep them. Most of the time we have them inside as we do have plenty of space at our house. I work from home most of the time as well if I'm not home which is rare, I do have someone who will be available to take care of your pets all the time rest assured they'll be doing great! We do offer pick up and drop off before/after boarding please message me for more information! We care for your furry friends as you indicate us. What you tell us is what we will do for them. Let me know their schedule, potty breaks. how many times they eat per day.

Catherine is definitely a five star pet sitter! She takes good notes, is meticulous, and very punctual. My two little dogs loved her! She also gave very good feedback and updates on how well my little guys were doing and sent lots of pictures. Overall I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in her care and enjoyed my trip without a worry. I would 100% recommend Catherine.

About: I have over 11 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, with all of my personal experience being with bully breeds. I currently have three dogs of my own two English Bulldogs and one Pit Bull whom I’ve raised since they were puppies. One is now 11 years old, so I’m very familiar with senior care and adjusting routines as dogs age. All of my dogs require daily medications, regular ear cleanings, and ongoing skin care due to sensitivities, so I’m very comfortable administering oral medications, maintaining hygiene routines, and monitoring for skin or ear flare ups. I understand how important consistency and gentle handling are, especially for dogs with allergies, sensitive skin, or chronic needs. I’m experienced with breed specific concerns common to bully breeds, including heat sensitivity, breathing awareness, and the need for calm, structured care. I treat every dog like family and follow care instructions closely to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine, as I care for my own three dogs every day. I build my schedule around feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and care routines, which allows me to be consistent, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with morning, midday, and evening visits and understand the importance of sticking to established routines. I prioritize safety, calm environments, and close supervision at all times. I have extensive experience caring for bully breeds and understand their specific needs, including heat sensitivity, skin and ear care, and proper handling. I carefully follow all owner instructions, administer medications as directed, and maintain clean, safe spaces. I monitor behavior, health, and comfort closely and provide regular updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Palmhurst on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 261 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palmhurst. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Palmhurst stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Palmhurst. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
