“Trederica was wonderful! Kept me updated with pictures every visit & accommodated all my needs when it came to my fur baby, would absolutely book her again.”
“After just one visit, Uni already loves Elley! She’s amazing and treats my fur baby with so much care. We’re both so happy we found her. Highly recommend Elley to anyone looking for loving pet care!”
“Brianna was kind enough to accept our very last minute request and came over to meet the cats and get care instructions ahead of time. Very happy to have found a friendly and professional sitter in our new town.”
“Antonia is fantastic! We appreciate so much her great photos and thorough visit summaries and trust her completely with our 2 cats. Thank you, Antonia!”
“Ayo has been amazing! Very detailed and caring check-ins. He made sure to go above and beyond for our bunnies and dog. We’ll definitely ask him to watch them again in the future!”
“Abby was absolutely wonderful! I was in a pinch and needed someone to come over and check on my dog the same day. I blindly reached out to her, she responded quickly and was able to make it happen! We then had her come check on our dog the following 2 days as well. She let me know when she was on her way and gave me thorough updates throughout. I’ll absolutely be using her again and if highly recommend her!”
“Thanks to Matina and Amanda for caring for my three cats! They did a great job, I will definitely hire them again the next time I go away :) lots of photos and great communication!”
“David was once again amazing with our very senior and very frail dog, as well as our other dog and cat. He was reliable, punctual and did exactly what he said he would do. He also was very flexible with scheduling and we’d love to hire him again.”
“Natalie was great! We learned rather quickly our two cats were in good hands during our vacation. Natalie was very prompt, efficient and sensitive to any concerns or preferences we had. We will definitely ask for her again!”
“Sydney was fantastic! She took such great care of my senior cat, provided great pictures, and had such great communication. I really can't recommend her enough and will definitely call her back :)”
“This was my first time leaving my fur babies, and my anxiety was extremely high since they are still very young kittens. From the moment I met Kaileigh at our meet and greet, she immediately put me at ease. Her warm personality really shines—she was patient, knowledgeable, and had great techniques to help my cats feel comfortable with her. She followed all of our household instructions carefully, including removing her shoes at the door and washing her hands right away. She also gave my cats time to approach her on their own terms, which made a huge difference—especially for my more anxious kitten who typically avoids new people but surprisingly warmed up to her. During my eight-day trip, I had unreliable internet access and was unable to consistently view her updates. Despite this, Kaileigh went above and beyond to stay in communication and ensure I felt reassured. When I finally had service, I was able to see photos and videos of my cats looking happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. She even answered my call promptly, knowing I might not get another chance to reach her. When I returned home, everything was exactly as I had left it, and she thoughtfully informed me about a potential issue with my lockbox so I could address it. Most importantly, my cats were calm, healthy, and my little guy looked like he gained much-needed weight. I would highly recommend Kaileigh to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter. Her professionalism, communication, and love for animals truly set her apart. I would absolutely book her again without hesitation.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palmyra
This was the third time Matthew has cared for Toby, Twix, Tilly, and Tessi, and it was also the longest period I have ever been away from them. Each time, he consistently demonstrates genuine care, patience, and professionalism in handling my dogs and their individual needs. Toby is a special needs dog who requires a belly band, regular cleaning routines, skin care treatments, and close monitoring. In addition, right before my trip, Twix developed ulcers that required medications and eye drops, and Matthew managed his treatments carefully and patiently, even when administering them was difficult. Caring for four dogs is already demanding, but my situation is especially complex. My boys must remain separated due to fighting, the girls can be destructive with bedding, and accidents can happen. Finding someone willing and capable of managing these responsibilities has always been a major concern for me, especially when trying to travel to visit my fiancé. One of the things I appreciate most is the level of communication Matthew provides throughout the stay. He consistently sends updates and photos, and he is very attentive about voicing any concerns regarding my dogs’ health or behavior. That level of detail and attentiveness gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away and reassured me that my dogs were being carefully monitored and genuinely cared for. Matthew has given me complete confidence and peace of mind every time he watches my dogs. I am incredibly grateful for the compassion, reliability, and dedication he provides, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking attentive and trustworthy pet care.
Deresha is great! Feel like I got lucky with her being available. She knows her way around dogs of all breeds and can handle any type trouble your dog may give some one. Trusted her more and more as time went on. You won’t regret hiring Deresha to take care of your little ones, she’s great and is even willing to meet you before you need services to make sure she’s a good fit for your mascots. Deresha is the best!

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 Palmyra 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Palmyra choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Palmyra with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
