Brittany is very professional and loved my kitty kat Tucker even though he is terrified of strangers and wouldn't visit with her when she dropped in during the vacation week! She did everything needed for Tucker to be on his own and we would have her back with no hesitation - Thanx Brittany!

About: I have always had a pet in my house since the day I was born. Mostly dogs, but I have also had other smaller pets. I now have one 12 year old chocolate lab and one 6 year old black lab that I take care of everyday. Because of this I have experience with puppies and older dogs, along with dealing with more than one pet at a time. I currently have school from 10:30-2:15 but I am free anytime before then and after that. I also am available almost every weekend if needed. I have a fenced in yard with a doggy door to get outside and two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. I love to take my pets on walks or just play with them in the house or yard.

We had a wonderful experience with Lily as our dog sitter! She was punctual, attentive, and took excellent care of our dog. She was also very respectful of our home, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciated her reliability and care and will definitely be booking with Lily again. Highly recommend!

About: I have owned dogs for over 25 years. I currently have two younger dogs, a 2 years old Goldendoodle and a 1 years old Bernedoodle. Prior to them we had two labradoodle sisters. I have always been an animal lover. Will also help with any cat needs, such as feeding, cleaning out litter and freshening up water. I am currently a retired stay at home parent. Looking to help keep myself a little bit busy. I am flexible with my time and that sets me apart from most. I am currently only offering dog walking, feeding and/or letting your dog(s) out in your fenced in yard. Whichever you prefer and works for your dog needs

Nila was great. Took care of the dogs and gave them extra love and attention. My dogs will miss her care and miss her. She was also great at communication and helping change a little when my plane got delayed.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s a part of my everyday life. I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was 10 years old, and I have pets of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs playtime or a senior cat who just wants a calm, cozy space, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. As an adult student with a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I love having that extra time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve — whether that means daily walks, play sessions, feeding, or just being there to keep them company. My schedule allows me to be dependable, responsive, and available when pet parents need someone they can count on. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals can relax, play, and feel right at home. I stick to their usual routines — feeding times, walks, medication if needed — and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep their pets on a familiar schedule. I take time to bond with each pet, provide updates to the owners, and make sure their home stays clean and secure while they’re away. No matter the setting, I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, love, and full attention to their needs.

About: I've had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally. I currently share my home with Jill, my sweet 11-year-old mixed-breed dog. She's medium-sized, very friendly, and enjoys meeting other dogs. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'll make sure yours feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pets are welcome on the furniture and even on the bed if that's what they're used to at home. Since I'm home throughout the day, I can provide plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks—even as often as every hour if needed—and lots of playtime, cuddles, and companionship. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet like family and make your time away as stress-free as possible. I'm home throughout the day, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care for your pet. Whether you book boarding, daycare, walks, or drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet gets lots of love, playtime, exercise, and frequent potty breaks—even as often as every hour if needed. I have a flexible schedule and can easily accommodate your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving home where pets are treated like family. While I don't have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is closely supervised, and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. I have a friendly 11-year-old mixed-breed dog named Jill who enjoys the company of other dogs. Since I'm home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I'm happy to follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), crate training, and furniture preferences. If your dog enjoys social play and you approve, we're also just minutes from a local dog park for extra exercise. I'll also send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands.

About: I've cared for dogs big and small for about 8 years. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed and stay overnight with their pets. I have experience with epileptic dogs, senior dogs, medication, active supervision, etc. I'm currently seeking new opportunities and now have a free schedule, so I am now available on Monday through Friday, at 9am-5pm for drop ins. I can stop by for 30-60 minutes to refill water, let out dogs, scoop litter or give medicine at any exact time. I can also easily kennel if needed.

About: I’ve mainly taken care of my own, and close family cats and dogs, but in the recent year or two I’ve helped my friend who uses rover walk dogs. I currently have full availability, which allows me to accommodate last-minute bookings, recurring schedules, weekends, holidays, and extended stays. I'm flexible, dependable, and committed to providing reliable, attentive care whenever your pet needs me. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and maintain a calm, secure environment. My sister has a cat who is not comfortable around unfamiliar cats, so I am unable to host cats in my home. However, I am happy to provide care for dogs or care for cats in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I will always follow your pet's routine, provide regular updates, and treat them with the same care and respect I would give my own.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs for years. I’ve taken care of every dog age (puppy-elder) by taking them on walks/jogs, feeding, bathing, and simply just spending time with them so they don’t get lonely:) Pet care is a consistent part of my routine. I’m partially responsible for three family pets on top of having a cat of my own, so I’m always managing feeding, check ins, and general upkeep. I also have experience with longer term care, a week or more, so I’m comfortable taking on full responsibility when needed. I’m willing to take dogs on walks/jogs to get some exercise in, feed them when needed, spend time playing with them and keeping them company, take them outside to do their business when needed.

About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great. I want the animal to be as comfy as possible. Sometimes their human leaving can be stressful! I want to meet them where it’s needed. Not have their routines thrown off.

About: I have been privately taking care of friends/family’s/acquaintances pets for 12 years. I usually stay at their home to make sure their pets are as comfortable as possible when their family is away. I also take care of other household needs. I work in the veterinary field and have done so for the past 7 years. I love dogs and have a special appreciation for cats and their personalities. I encourage you to set up a meet and greet before hand to make sure you and your pets match my vibe and trust me with your most beloved. I am comfortable with special needs pets and those requiring medications or extra care and attention, whatever that may be. Snuggle and play time are my specialties 😊 I am currently not working and have the flexibility to accommodate you and your pets changing needs! Please don’t hesitate to communicate schedule changes and/or special schedule requests. I do not have a fenced in yard and have a very active 85lb dog. I am very experienced in being cautious and careful with pets who also do not have the security of a fenced in yard.

When we arrived after our five day trip, we encountered our two furbabies freshly woken from a nap, without a care in the world, as if they also had taken a vacation! Wordda made sure our boys were looked after and satisfied. Thank you for everything! <3

Jenna did an excellent job caring for our 3 fur babies while we were on an extended vacation! She was punctual, provided them so much love and play, and followed feeding and cleaning directions to a T! We were so comfortable having her in our home and entrusting the care of our babies to her. She even was kind enough to bring in our mail and to clean up an unexpected accident so well that we couldn't see any sign of it. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Point of Rocks on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 5,564 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Point of Rocks. 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 Point of Rocks 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.

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 of Rocks 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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.

To find sitters in Point of Rocks with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Point of Rocks. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
