“Jacky did an AMAZING job watching my three kitties! She always kept me up to date on how they were doing, and even sent photos and videos along the way to make us feel reassured as we were traveling. We have a senior cat, and Jacky took extra care with her. Thanks so much, Jacky! 😃”

“Britney took very good care of my kitty while I was gone. My cat is very skittish when it comes to new people, so she tends to hide. Britney went the extra mile to make sure she atleast heard her in the house. She also made sure she had food, water and cleaned her kitty box. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was little and have grown up on a farm around a wide range of animals. Living on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals with different personalities and needs. I currently work at Pampered Paws and volunteer at animal shelters, giving me hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I aspire to become a veterinarian, so I truly love every opportunity to care for animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I also have a very flexible schedule so I am able to change things around to accommodate you. I also ensure that my calendar is up to date so I can be confident that I can give your dogs all the love and attention they deserve. In my clients’ homes, I always respect the routines, rules, and boundaries they set so their pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I make sure to ask detailed questions about each pet’s schedule, behavior, preferences, and any special care needs so I can provide the best care possible. Safety and trust are very important to me, and I always treat both pets and homes with respect. In my own home, I follow the same approach by creating a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away.

About: I've taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. From pups to seniors I've always had a warm sense of love for our four legged friends! I’m mostly available on weekends. With lots of time for walks and playtime from sunrise to sunset. I run on weekends so active pups are more than welcome to join! Those relaxed pups will be met with cold ac and chill vibes! I have a fenced in backyard for any pup for lots of outdoor time! Food schedule flowed if specified. Lots of playtime! Crates will need to be provided.

“I can’t say enough good things about Christa! She came for drop-in visits and did an amazing job with our cats. We have a shy cat that warmed right up immediately, which is always a great sign. I felt completely at ease while I was away knowing that she was caring for them.”

About: I've been caring for pets on and off since 2018 and have years of experience providing dependable, loving care. In addition to pet sitting, I've worked as a nanny since 2019, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, communication skills, and ability to care for others with patience and attention to detail. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from tiny Yorkies and French Bulldogs to Great Danes and Labrador Retrievers. At home, I have four dogs, so I'm very comfortable managing multiple pets and understanding their individual personalities and needs. I'm also experienced with senior dogs and pets with medical needs, including administering medications, helping dogs with limited mobility, and caring for paralyzed dogs. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch, I'll treat them like they're my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable care, regular updates, and lots of love and attention for your furry family member. As a full-time college student, I build my schedule to make sure I have plenty of time to care for pets. I'm available for morning, evening, overnight, and weekend care, and I plan my class schedule around the pets I'm watching whenever possible. During house sitting, I'll stick closely to your pet's normal routine and always communicate if I'll be away for class. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, while giving you regular updates and peace of mind. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, or just lots of cuddles, I'll care for them as if they were my own. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'm experienced caring for dogs of all sizes, senior pets, and pets with medical or mobility needs, and I'll always send photo updates so you know your furry family member is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve worked in a vet clinic for 4 years where I have learned how to properly take care of animals. I also dog sit for neighbors and friends which include feeding, bathing, administering medicine, walking and spending the night with their animals. I will be able to stop by between, before or after classes. I will also be able to stop by on weekends or on my lunch break. I do work a part time job and I am a full time student but I will fit this into my schedule between classes or after work. I will build up a trust with your pet and treat them like one of my own. I will either leash walk them to go potty or let them out in a fenced in back yard.

Dakota was fantastic. She sent updates every day with pictures and kept us updated on everything. Our cat really liked her, and he’s usually standoff-ish to new people. 10/10 would recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Patrick

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Patrick is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $27 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 102 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Patrick. 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 Patrick. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.
