About: I have never lived a day my 34 years without at least one pet to my name, usually dogs and cats. I have taken care of dogs and cats through every stage of life -- from delivering puppies to training competitive hunting dogs and providing palliative care for aging pets. I have a medical background and am comfortable with basic medical care. I work at home and am generally home the entire day. I have total flexibility over my schedule so it's easy for me to adjust to last-minute changes. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment in a very animal-friendly complex with plenty of residential streets and parks for long walks and fun. You can trust me to not only care for your pet but to respect the boundaries you set forth in regards to your pet's care.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life and have done pet sitting jobs for close friends and family. I have a passion for animal wellness and I worked in the veterinary industry as a vet assistant on and off for the past 5 years!! I’m good at handling high energy dogs, geriatric dogs, small and large breeds, and so on! I’m currently completing my masters degree in Applied Bioscience in Animal Health online! I also work part-time so I have a very flexible schedule. We can definitely work something out! At home, I care for 5 dogs and 1 cat. So, alongside my veterinary experience, I know the ins and outs of what dogs do and don’t like. At home visits and dog walking services will be up to the owners specifications!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life. From my own dogs as a child to helping friends and neighbors take care of theirs, I have over 40 years of experience, taking care of fur babies. Currently, I have a bernadoodle, a boxer, and a pug. We’ve had many boxers over the years. I’ve taken care of puppies all the way through senior dogs. I’m comfortable giving medication’s and taking care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I am a teacher. The dogs are alone between 6 and 7 hours on a weekday. I typically leave food down, but this can be modified if need be. I have close to an acre fenced in backyard so there is room for them to run and play. The dogs are never outside unattended. Our dogs sleep with us. Taking care of an extra pet or a few extras is no problem at all! I have almost an acre yard that can be gated off into 2 separate yards. If your baby is nervous we can give them their own space to play and run.I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. Our dogs are very gentle and different sizes. When your dog is on our care we will make sure it is safe and feels comfortable. I have space to keep dogs separate if needed. My goal is to welcome your pet into our pack and treat them like family!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have had pets my entire life! I’ve cared for both cats and dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I know how important pets are—they really are part of the family. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic dogs who love walks and playtime to pets who would rather curl up on the couch and get some extra attention. I’m also a cat lover and understand that sometimes the best way to win over a cat is to let them decide when they’re ready to be your friend! I’m dependable, responsible, and will treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. As a teacher, I have a pretty consistent daily schedule, which makes it easy for me to plan pet care into my routine. I’m available before and after school, in the evenings, and have much more flexibility on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I’m used to having pets as part of my everyday life, so feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and checking in on them already feel like a natural part of my day! Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications or special instructions, and of course plenty of attention. I’m also respectful of your home and will make sure everything is secure when I leave. For pets staying in my home, I’ll work with you to learn about their routines, personality, preferences, and comfort level before their stay. I have pets of my own, so safety is especially important to me. I’ll make sure introductions are handled carefully and that every pet has the space and attention they need to feel comfortable. I know every animal is different, and I’m happy to adjust my care to what works best for your

About: Recently graduated from Mizzou, I have spent the last 2 years helping to care for our house pets, including two cats and one dog. I worked to feed, walk, and engage with my pets during this period. Prior to this, I lived and cared for many animals back in my hometown: 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, 2 parrots, and a turtle. Because of this, I deliver versatile care, and understand that every pet has its own unique needs! I work 2 part time jobs, both in healthcare, where my hours are stacked on certain days of the week. This gives me flexibility to help care for your pets! Though each week can be a little different, I have my schedule set throughout the summer and can plan far ahead! I have such a big heart for animals! I love giving them attention and care above and beyond what's expected. I prefer to do this in a house sitting situation due to having 5 other roomates with animals here, but I have a car and am willing to do overnights!

About: Hello! I worked with animals for as long as I could remember! I use to dog sit for my neighbors since I was 10 years old until I was 17! I currently still work at a dog daycare and have been working there for about three years now! I also work for wag as well so I take care of animals on there as well! I also have dogs of my own and two cats! I’m very fortunate to be able to take care of animals and have always loved and appreciated that owners would allow me to care for there pets while they are away! I would love to help you take care of your fur babies as well! :) I work full time at a dog daycare but I mostly spend my days at home with my own dogs! I besides working 2:30 to 10:00 pm I’m always at home! I will be with your babies when I am not a work and make sure they are getting the proper potty breaks as needed! I can also come home during my break which is usually the half way mark to come and give them attention and potty breaks! I only work Tuesday-Saturday! So I’m free Sunday and Monday which I will be home the whole time! At my home I usually let dogs free roam when they come to my house but I’m perfectly fine with crating your pups if needed I do have an in home crate! I mostly spend my time going on walks and something lazing around on the couch! I always give a good amount of outside time so they can have some fun playing and enjoying the weather! I always have safety in my mind especially when it comes to being outside and other dogs to make sure they are always safe! I would love to be able to help take care of your babies while you’re away!

“Josie was great! She kept the communication going while we were out of town so we were always kept up to date on Wrigley and if she had any questions or anything. She knew how to introduce herself to him so he felt comfortable while we were gone, and that was the most important part for us. We'll definitely be using Josie again next time we need a dog walker”

About: I love all animals as long as they have 4 legs. I will take care of your babies as you have done. I will always keep you in contact with how your babies are doing and send you pictures anytime you need them. I have a flexible available schedule. I just ask for a notice as soon as possible so that I can be available for you. I love animals I love dogs and cats. I am currently going to school which is all online this makes my schedule open. I have baby gates around my house so that if my dogs start becoming very mean towards the cats, the cats have a place to run. I always make sure to stay calm with the dogs in any situation. I personally turn music on and it's mainly calm sleepy music like Enya or sleep jazz music on YouTube.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Pleasant Valley on Rover is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 2,444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pleasant Valley. 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.

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 Pleasant Valley 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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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.

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 , 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.
