About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my attention to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and comfort level—I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable handling pets with anxiety and work to create a calm, reassuring environment. You will always get consistent updates and clear communication, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working in a high school so I am home early by 2:45 and have availability for the remainder of the evening! Pets stay in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I stick closely to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules to help them feel at ease. There’s plenty of supervised playtime, affection, and downtime, depending on their personality. I also make sure the space is pet-friendly and secure at all times.

“Jacqueline was amazing! She was so easy to get in touch with, super communicative, and was right on time for the drop-in. She sent pictures and videos playing with my cat. She has a clear love for animals and treated my cat with kindness. Will definitely book again!!”

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, so I have a lot of experience caring for them and walking them. I understand how a dog communicates it's needs, like when they need to go outside for the bathroom, or when they need to get their energy out with some playtime. I can handle any sized dog on a leash (my dogs at home are 50-80 pounds!) I can take care of cats as well, and am comfortable cleaning out a litter box. I know how to approach both dogs and cats, and get them to warm up and be comfortable with me. I also have experience babysitting and house sitting. Animals make me so happy so I would love to take care of yours!! I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I'm always welcome and happy to add a dog or cat sitting request into my routine. I take great care of my pets, ensure the dogs have daily walks and the cats always have a clean litter box. And of course, cuddles all the time :)

“This is our second time booking Sarah and it was just as great as the first! I am such a nervous cat mom when it comes to leaving my fur babies but with Sarah I know they’re getting the attention and care they need while we are gone. She also takes the greatest pictures and videos to update us on how they’re doing! Will be certainly booking her again.”

About: Over the course of my time I've taken care of and lived with goldfish, parakeets, a big old mutt, several great cats...and chickens. Considering that I grew up in Manhattan, I'd say that if that doesn't account for exeptional qualifications to love and care for our furry (or scaly, or feathered) friends, I'm not sure what could! Our kids are off exploring the world as newly minted adults leaving my wife and I with two finicky cats. With a little extra time on my hands I thought it would be a good idea to help other pet owners out to work all day or preferably, gone on a much needed vacation but looking for someone to check in on their furry loved ones. I freelance from home as a designer, so I typically have time at both ends of the day to extend a helping hand to anyone who needs a little extra care for their pet. We have 2 cats at home of whom I am the primary caretaker of, so adding a visit to a neighbor in need would be easy. I will follow all instructions and care indications you give for your pet(s) to the letter and provide pictures of completion if you request it.

About: In addition to my life of loving, respecting, and caring for animals in my community, I've also worked as a Veterinary Assistant. I have experience assisting Technicians and Veterinarians in running an Animal Hospital that serves about 25+ small animals per day. I've worked individually and with my team to do anything from a nail trim to a blood draw, to monitoring vitals during surgery, and fostering a calm secure environment while doing so. I've maintained a fear-free environment and prevented waiting-area conflicts between patients while at the front desk completing clerical duties. Now I'm currently caring for some of my former patients and clients with a diverse abilities and needs in the comfort of their homes. I am applying to veterinary school and have a lot if flexibility with my schedule. Since I'm taking a break from working in hospitals and focusing on my academics, I would love to keep petcare as part of my routine, and I can adapt to your pet's routine. I treat overnight stays like your furry friends favorite sleepover. I will be sure to maintain their daily routines promptly and thoroughly, sprinkle in some of their favorite things, and shower them in love to keep them distracted from missing you too much while you're away. As for my more shy friends, I will be sure to acts smoothly and calmly throughout the night. I will try to build their trust by bringing as much predictibility as possible in this unusual situation.

About: I absolutely Live for animals. Since I was small I knew working with animals was my passion. They bring me an extreme amount of joy and love and I promise to love and treasure your pup like it is my own. Many think of their dogs as "just dogs", I believe there is something deeper and far more special between a relationship with a person and their pet. My dogs are my family and I adore them. I have had dogs growing up my entire life, and when I was old enough to live on my own I started to rescue and foster senior and disabled dogs. I currently have a blind Pekingese who I rescued a day before euthanasia who is the love of my life, and a one eyed terrier who I rescued after being hit by car. I deny No pet, and usually I am the go to person when friends or family need a dog sitter if they are going out of town. I have worked with Both the ASPCA and Dogs without Borders in Hollywood, CA. If your pet stays with me it will be treated like my own, if I do stop in visits for walks they will enjoy time at the park and being outside. I have experience with deaf dogs, blind, and 3 legged dogs. Dogs who have been on 3x a day medicine, overly friendly dogs and the scared, timid dogs.

“Seamus watched my two dogs for a week while I was away and I would not hesitate to recommend him or enlist him to watch our pets again. From the moment we met, I felt comfortable -- Seamus clearly loves animals and they love him. I received photos and updates for each visit with my pets every day, twice a day, and he checked in with me several times outside of any requirements. This was my first time using any service to take care of the boys and it worked out so well!”

I work full time. I get back from work usually between 4:15pm and 4:45pm. But that doesn’t mean I won’t take the time out of my day to take great care of your pets! I am available Monday-Friday 5pm and 10pm. Saturdays 11am-5pm Sundays 10pm-6pm I value respecting one’s pet or pets as if they are family. I will treat your pet/s with respect, love, and care.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Point Lookout on Rover is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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.

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 Point Lookout 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 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 .

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.

  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
