“Jillian was great! She made sure our 2 kitties were well taken care of! Our kitties were given lots of love and played with everyday! Very easy communication and she took great pics of the cats!”
About: I have had both cats and dogs in the house since I was a young child. As I grew older it became part of my daily chores to take care of them. I helped care for my elderly pets before they departed. I have around the clock availability. I can take a job at any time of day at any time of the week. I’m always available. I have regularly walked dogs for years and can take them to the local dog park to play. I also have plenty experience with cats, both with playing and cleaning.
About: I have never lived in a household without a fur baby being present. We've own big and small dogs, a cat, and even a bunny at one point. Being a pet owner is all I've ever known so I am pretty confident in my knowledge of pets and just pet parent intuition. I have recently left my full time job and started my own photography business so my schedule is extremely flexible and open. The only day I am typically unavailable is Sundays. I promise to treat every pet baby as if they were my own. I know that pets are more like family than anything so you/they would have a friend in me.
“Bri was amazing. She took care of my pups as if they were her own. She took her time and they responded by warming up to her more each day as they are really shy with new people. Snoopy and Kiwi have a new best friend! Thank you”
“Gabrielle always takes such great care of our cat when we are away. He likes to get his wet food at the same time and she is great about accommodating this. Very responsive and always a delight to communicate with. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been pet sitting, including overnights at clients' homes, for over six years. I genuinely love getting to know animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, gerbils, and even bearded dragons! I’m comfortable caring for senior pets and those who need a little extra patience, including blind pets and those who sometimes have accidents. I always strive to keep my clients' fur babes happy and relaxed so that they feel safe while their parents are away. I also include watering plants and mail fetching in my services. If desired, we can chat about house cleaning rates, too. Thank you for considering me! I work full time but am available to check in on pets in the morning, at lunch, and after work, including overnight stays. When I accept a job, I make pet sitting my first priority! I am happy to flex my work schedule to ensure you receive the best care for your pets and home. It is my absolute priority to create a safe, calm, and familiar environment for every pet that I care for. I am a stickler for following instructions, and even prefer a detailed list of feeding schedules, medication needs, routines, and any behaviors or triggers that may help me with your pet(s). I am detail oriented (which helps in my full-time job, too!), paying strict attention to locking doors and gates, setting alarms, and keeping spaces clear for my furry friends. I also monitor pet behavior and their bodies for any changes that may warrant contacting you. My ultimate goal is your peace of mind.
“Daniel was great with our senior cat who is a little quirky and needs meds twice per day. He was communicative, responsive, and sent plenty of photos. Would highly recommend for any pet care needs!”

About: I am well rounded in all animals and have had many dogs and cats throughout the years. On average I have at least 6 pets in my home whom i take care of, walk, feed, and clean. My dog gets medicine so I am good with giving dogs pills. As well as cats because two of my cats take pills and one gets two shots everyday for diabetes. I walk my dogs daily and love taking them to see new things and go to new places! I love cats and am capable of cleaning after them, like scooping the litter. I also have experience with pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. On my profile currently I selected no pets because I cannot bring any pets with me to hangout with other animals as I am living at college currently. I am a college student so my schedule changes everyday. Taking care of pets is a great addition to my day and good way to get outside. So anytime i am not in class i am available for walks! In my own home I feed and water my pets everyday, as well as scooping the litter twice a day, walking the dogs on a long walk at least once a day. I can give medication if need be as well. In clients home I am able to do the same treatment as needed.
About: I’ve taken care of many different clients and run a business working with cats, dogs, fish, birds etc. Providing quality and affordable pet care for your pets. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day starts with checking in on the pets under my care, ensuring they are well-fed, hydrated, and comfortable. Throughout the day, I schedule regular playtimes and walks to keep them active and happy. I meticulously follow any specific instructions provided by pet owners, such as administering medication or adhering to particular feeding schedules. By prioritizing the well-being of the pets I look after, I ensure they receive the consistent, loving care they deserve, seamlessly integrating pet care into my everyday life. Check us out on social media otepetsitting & otecarrentals. Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, involves providing a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. In my home, I ensure that pets have their own designated spaces, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and access to fresh water and nutritious food. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of love and attention. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain the pet’s routine and comfort. This includes feeding, administering medication, providing exercise, and ensuring companionship. I respect the client’s home as if it were my own, keeping it tidy and secure. Whether at my place or theirs, my goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring the pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for at all times.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

Emily fed and cared for our cat for 7 days straight while we were away. She was very good with communicating and following up. I got a couple pics every visit. She even brought in my mail. She met my cat before our visit and you can tell She is very good with animals. He was immediately purring and loving her. We were very calm and relaxed because we knew our boy was in good hands. We'd 100% have emily watch our cat again.
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.
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 Palmyra. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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.
