About: Hi there! I’m looking forward to giving your dog a safe, fun, and comfortable home away from home. With over 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs, I understand exactly how important peace of mind is when you are away. Because I work from home several days a week, your pup will get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and frequent companionship throughout the day. I don't have any pets of my own, which means your dog will get 100% of my attention and the VIP, "only child" treatment during their entire stay. My home features a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to stretch, play fetch, and explore safely. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I am completely comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I am dedicated to keeping your dog's regular routine intact, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work from home several days a week, your pup will get plenty of attention. I go into office Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays. I get off at 4pm Monday and Tuesdays and Thursdays I get off at 5pm. My home features a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to stretch, play fetch, and explore safely. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I

“This was not a straightforward appointment for Cheryal. Firstly, she took it at very short notice, & secondly our furbaby is very protective & has not had a sitter before. Cheryal was just great! She listened to guidance & went at our pups pace until they est. a relationship. She was thoughtful & detailed in per reports (with pics), really helping put our minds at ease. Would recommend her 100% & will also be saving her details for again. Thanks for taking such good care of our girl Cheryal.”

“April took care of our two senior dogs for two weeks. When we first met April, she clearly exhibited an understanding that caring for senior dogs necessitates dedication, flexibility, and compassion. She made time each day for cuddles, petting, and simply sitting together. These moments of quiet companionship deepened the bond and reassured both our dogs that they were safe and loved. She certainly had challenges, including changes in appetite, managing their medications and dealing with separation anxiety our dogs experienced. We enjoyed peace of mind during our vacation, confident that our pets were in April's care. She maintained consistent communication through both text messages and photos. Through these communications, we observed our dogs respond with tail wagging and gentle nuzzling. We greatly appreciate our acquaintance with April and intend to involve her in all future boarding arrangements for our pets.”

About: 🐾 Four cats of my own, a huge love for dogs, and plenty of room for more furry friends! As a pet parent myself, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and little quirks. Whether your dog wants to play fetch until their legs give out or your cat prefers to supervise me from across the room, I’m here for it! 😂 One of the biggest perks of booking with me is that I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule! This allows me to accommodate different pet care needs and work around your pets’ routines whenever possible. Your babies deserve more than someone who just shows up, fills a bowl, and disappears! I’m big on keeping things clean, maintaining consistent feeding routines, respecting each pet’s boundaries, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a cat mom of four, I know how important it is to pay attention to the little details, and I’m just as excited to spoil your pups with attention, playtime, and walks! You can expect reliable communication, photo updates, and plenty of reassurance that your pets are in good hands. My goal is simple: happy pets, stress-free humans, and enough photos to make you wonder if your pets even miss you. 🐶🐱❤️ Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom of four, so you could say pets already run my household! 😂🐾 I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes pet sitting a natural fit for my lifestyle. I love having the opportunity to spend time with animals throughout my day, whether that means taking dogs on walks, playing with energetic pups, keeping cats company, or giving a shy kitty the space they need to feel comfortable. I’m happy to incorporate pet care into my daily routine and make sure your fur babies get plenty of attention while you’re away. Having four cats of my own has taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s unique personality, respect their boundaries, maintain consistent routines, and keep their spaces clean. I know that trusting someone with your pets is a big deal, and I want you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like family. Since I work from home, I can offer flexibility when scheduling visits and walks, depending on your pet’s needs and my availability. I’m also happy to provide photo updates so you can see what your babies are up to while you’re away! Whether your pet is a playful pup, a cuddly cat, or a little diva who thinks they own the place (no judgment, I live with four of them 😂), I’d love to meet them! Your pets get a caring, reliable sitter, and I get to spend my day doing something I genuinely love. It’s a win win! ❤️🐾 My approach to pet care is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around pet visits, walks, feeding times, and playtime! For care in your client’s home: I prioritize keeping your pets on their usual schedule, whether that means morning walks, scheduled meals, playtime, litter box maintenance, or simply keeping them company. I respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention while you’re away. I also provide photo updates so you can see how your babies are doing! For dogs: I love incorporating walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention based on each dog’s energy level and personality. Whether your pup is adventurous and energetic or prefers leisurely walks and couch time, I’ll adapt to their needs. For cats: As a cat mom of four, I’m familiar with the importance of clean litter boxes, consistent feeding routines, and respecting each cat’s individual personality. Some cats want all the attention, while others need time to warm up, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your care instructions, and make sure your fur babies get the love and attention they deserve. ❤️🐶🐱

About: I grew up with pets in my home and love animals of all kinds. I have experience pet setting/house sitting for cats and dogs of all sizes. I enjoy walking dogs because I love being active and outdoors! I have no problem at all cleaning up after your dog if he gets sick, or goes to the bathroom! I'm okay giving medications as needed. I'm great with feeding and giving water. I have experience pet sitting for quiet, calm dogs and rowdy, playful and sometimes very loud dogs. I'm also great with cats and other animals as needed! I will treat your pet and your home with great respect! I am currently not working so I've got all the time in the world to come and pet sit for you! I'm happy to come at whatever time of day works best. I follow the directions that I've been given for pet care exactly as stated. I will provide food and water to your pet and take them outside for walks as needed. I also love to just play with and cuddle animals as the animal is comfortable with me. I am also comfortable changing litter boxes for cats as needed.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, from large working dogs to little Yorkies, cats, and even cattle growing up. I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends and family, including dog sitting, cat sitting, feeding, walks, and general daily care. I’ve had firsthand experience dealing with pet health issues, including feline kidney stones, so I understand the importance of paying attention to an animal’s behavior and individual needs. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Animals have always been a part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have a pretty flexible schedule with advance notice! I’m an early riser, enjoy staying active, and love spending time with animals. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so I’m always happy to have some furry company. If your pet requires constant supervision or has separation anxiety, please let me know ahead of time so we can plan accordingly. I prefer meeting pets and their owners beforehand whenever possible. It’s important for me to understand your pet’s personality, routines, and any household rules. Your home, your rules! I’ll respect your instructions, keep your pet’s environment safe and comfortable, and communicate with you throughout their stay or visit. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable with me.

About: Growing up with both dogs & cats my entire life, I’ve been around a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I work well with every animal I come across and enjoy caring for any & all — this includes experience with puppy care & training! I’m kind, fun-loving, sociable, and can adapt based on an animal’s needs. I lead with compassion for animals & their owns alike. From family to friends, I always ensure your fur baby is looked after with the utmost of care. As I’m currently working from home, I am readily available for walks, check-ins, house sitting, and boarding throughout the day/night. Overnight stays are no issue here either! Depending on the instructions received from the owner(s), I will be sure to follow any necessary requirements to ensure your pet is looked after & loved for the time that I am there. Whether it’s forms of training, being let in & out, walks, check-ins, etc. - nothing is ever too much. Favorite treats, toys & activities are to be followed to make sure your pet (or pets) is as comfortable & happy as can be!

“Overall amazing. I had a last minute trip to attend to and couldn’t be able to bring my dog around family (since they’re allergic) and was scrambling to find someone to pet sit. Luckily Aleece responded very quickly to my inquiry and was able to check in on my dog that same day I scheduled the appointment. Very attentive and punctual and overall super friendly. I believe my corgi had a good time with Aleece judging from the pictures she sent me of him playing. Will be booking again in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 13 years, and taking care of dogs has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I have a dog of my own who I absolutely love and treat like family, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. Over the years, I’ve regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, including feeding, walking, playing with them, keeping them company, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I’m patient, attentive, and always make an effort to understand each dog’s personality and individual needs. When your dog is with me, they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care. My goal is to make sure every dog feels happy, safe, and at home while you’re away. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can usually work around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to help with walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away. I know pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine, so I’ll do my best to keep things familiar and comfortable for them. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m caring, patient, and attentive, and I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and what they’re comfortable with. I’ll follow your instructions and make sure they’re safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and keep you updated so you know how they’re doing.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lucia was absolutely wonderful! From the very first meet and greet, she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our kitties in her care. While we were away, she sent fantastic updates and fun photos that showed just how much time and attention she was giving them. It was so nice seeing our kitties happy, playful, and enjoying her company! We came home to a happy house and two very well-loved kitties! Lucia is warm, thoughtful, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely love to have her care for our kitties again. Highly recommend! 🐾💕

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Point Venture

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Point Venture is $15 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 7,478 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Point Venture. 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 Point Venture. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
