“Joni is new to day visits for my 2 Dachshunds ages 12 & 18. Her first visit went smoothly and she went above and beyond caring for them. Her passion for animals comes through and I hope to be using her services well into the future. Thankyou Joni.”
About: I’m a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ll treat your pets like family, giving them patient, loving, and reliable care! Pet care fits easily into my flexible schedule. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings to provide your pets with the care and attention they deserve. I care for pets in clients’ homes by ensuring a safe, comfortable environment, following their routines, and providing trusted, loving care for their happiness and well-being.
“Riley puts me at ease when I have to leave Spade (my 14 yr old Bombay male cat). She keeps me updated with photos and a narrative of what took place. She goes beyond and even cleans any mess he’s created. She is always punctual and attentive to his needs. I will recommend her with a glowing review and hope to book her on my next trip out of town. The best!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around large dogs and currently share my home with a 4-year-old German Shepherd who I raised and trained on my own since he was just 6 weeks old. I’ve developed an understanding of strong, energetic, and intelligent breeds over the years. Whether it’s a shy pup or a high-energy dog, I believe in patient, positive care and making sure every walk, visit, or play session is a happy one. You can trust that your dog will be treated like family in my care—because that’s how I’d want mine treated too! I work full time as a nurse, but typically have 3-4 days off each week that I love to spend outside or with animals to fill my happiness quota! I do not have a fenced in yard at my home, but am used to leashed walks with my 4 year old German shepherd. I have experience with crate training and medication administration.
“Sharon was punctual, friendly, professional and had excellent communication. Our older dog's medicinal routine can be confusing and she did great. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house. We will definitely be booking Sharon again.”
“Corey was wonderful for a last minute drop in visit. I felt very comfortable having her come into my home and caring for my fur baby. Will definitely use her again hands down.”
“We keep rebooking with Maria because she is reliable, trustworthy, and takes great care of our 3 kitties. She keeps excellent communication and we never have to worry. We’ll rebook again next time too! Thank you Maria!”
About: I have had a dog of my own since I was 12 and absolutely adore all animals. I did a decent amount of dogsitting over the 2022 summer and loved it :) I am a freshman and hamilton college but hoping to do more over the upcoming summer. I am honestly pretty open other than working 1-5 usually everyday. Besides that I am available to take care of your pup whenever it is needed :) Please just let me know what works best for you! I love to take dogs on walks and really just spend quality time with them. I really just enjoy the company and think they’re adorable :) I could play all day or watch a show on the couch with some pets depending on what they need from me!
About: I am willing to take your pups on walks, hikes and adventures. We will play with his or her favorite toys. I will give your dogs time to use the bathroom when dog sitting. I will give your dog all the attention in the world because I know they are deserving of it. This job will help me in my future as a dog trainer because I will be able to work with all breeds and temperaments. I will get the necessary variety needed to exceed in my field. I encourage you to pick me as your dog sitter or dog walker because I am more than capable of giving them my time. There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with dogs that need my help.
“Elizabeth was fantastic with our boys. We (boys included) knew as soon as we met her, she was a perfect fit. This was our first time using Rover but Elizabeth really put our mind at ease. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various kinds since I was 10. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. Currently I work on a 10 month contract. Therefore I have summer off so I have plenty of time to provide pet care to those in need of such services. I am a very trustworthy person who has tremendous respect for other people’s property and belongings. I especially respect pets with their needs and desires.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Palmyra on Rover is $22.2 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 940 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palmyra. 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 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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
