“Jennifer was so attentive to our puppy and even met with us beforehand to make me feel more at ease as a new pet mom. She also sent great updates and pictures, which made me so happy. I recommend her 100% and will definitely be asking her to watch our pup again!”
About: I have been the family pet sitter since I was a teenager, and I have a love for animals of all shapes and sizes. Even snakes and bugs i currently am working part time, and looking for a side job and can fit almost any schedule given my work schedule weekly. Im free 5-6 days of the week most times. Attentive and controlled pet care. I am always making sure the pets are safe, happy, and comfortable in the home. While walking keeping the pets close to me is something i firmly believe in.
“Chelsea was wonderful! We had her watch our kitties while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she even came over on Christmas Day even though we told her she could skip that day if she wanted. She sent lots of pictures and updates and even my shy kitty loved her! Highly recommend!”
“James cat-sat our cat for 2 and a half weeks with drop in visits. We really appreciated the pictures he sent everyday and how well he communicated. We came back to a happy, healthy cat! We'll be using him again in the future.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of dogs from neighbors, friends, and families. I love spending time with them, having fun, and making sure all dogs are taken care of! I currently work part-time which gives me more than enough time to spend with your pets and ensuring they are cared for. I’m usually home if I’m not at work. My yard is fenced and I usually keep my dogs in my house if they aren’t playing or using the bathroom. Their food is always refilled and prepared. I can buy toys if needed
“Lorrin was great with our 3 kitties (+ chickens and goldfish 😄) while we were gone, I’m sure they enjoyed all the love and attention she gave them each visit and she communicated perfectly each day with lots of photos and updates. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need a sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals, including dogs 🐕 , cats 🐈 ,rats 🐀, chameleons 🌈 , iguanas 🦎 , and birds 🐥. Currently, my family has five cats 🐈⬛ (four of which are mine), two dogs 🐶 (a Rottweiler and a Lab Mix), two birds 🦜(a Conyard and an Amazon parrot), and a large Sulcata tortoise 🐢 . I also have a jumping spider 🕷️ . I’m well-versed in all aspects of animal care ❤️🩹and have a lot of patience 🤗. I’ll give your pets all the love and attention they need. 💕 I’m currently between jobs because I recently moved here. So, my typical morning routine involves opening the blinds, feeding my cats, and checking on my spider. I would treat my clients’ animals as if they were my own and would adapt to the specific needs of each pet as per the client’s instructions.

My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. With decades of hands-on experience caring for animals, I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand how important it is to follow your instructions, respect your dog’s routine, and keep you updated while you’re away. I’ll treat your pup as if they were my own, with plenty of affection, patience, and attention to their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐾 Feel free to message me any questions! I have a flexible schedule at this time , and I am happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kind since I was nine. Throughout my life I’ve had turtles, ducks, goats, bunnies, chickens, cows, fishes, dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, guinea pigs, even a squirrel! You name it! I currently have a pet ferret that is a girl, a bunny who is a boy and 2 girl kitties who are all my babies. I love caring for critters of all kinds and will treat them as they are my own while I am with them. Most importantly I am a super vigilant and cautious person and understand how important they are to you. Feel free to send me a text any time throughout my visit and I will gladly send you all of the pictures and videos that you would like! Thank you for choosing me and I can’t wait to meet your pets! My schedule is fairly open right now, as long as you contact me within 3 days before you need me I will be there for your critters! I live in an appartement with my 2 female cats, my free range ferret and bunny who is also free range (all are fixed and vaccinated). Both my ferret and bunny are litter box trained to their own designated liter box's that have special litter just for them (cat litter is bad for them to use). Both my ferret and bunny have their own cage that I leave open and let then come and go as they please. That is also where there food and water is located. They all get fed a small scoop of food twice a day and get clean water twice a day. I also scoop all the litter boxes twice a day and clean both cages twice a week.
About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and my passion for canine care began at age 14 when I first learned the fundamentals of training and responsible pet ownership. Since then, I have personally raised two dogs from nine-week-old puppies into adulthood, giving me hands-on experience with developmental needs, safety, and attentive daily care. Animals naturally sense my calm demeanor and feel comfortable around me, allowing me to build instant trust and keep them at ease. In addition to raising my own companions, I regularly help pet parents understand canine behavior and basic training through positive, clear communication that works seamlessly for both dogs and their owners. As a current student, my daily routine is structured to ensure your pets receive reliable, dedicated care without disruption. I have excellent availability early in the morning before classes, typically between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM depending on the day. After classes wrap up, I am fully free for afternoon and evening visits starting after 12:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5:00 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As long as visits fall around these regular class windows, I can seamlessly accommodate walks, feedings, and drop-ins throughout the week. I also have zero issues providing overnight care and weekend coverage, giving your pets consistent attention, company, and love while keeping their routines completely on track. Because I am currently in school, I do not offer pet boarding in my own home. Instead, I specialize entirely in in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits, allowing your pets to stay comfortable, secure, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your personal space with the highest level of respect, care, and cleanliness. My primary focus is making sure all of your pet’s essential needs are met meticulously, from precise feeding schedules and fresh water to maintaining clean living areas and administering medication if required. Beyond the basics, I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and follow any extra instructions to the letter, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and dedicated companionship.
About: Licensed veterinary technician, I have experience in Veterinary Emergency for 2 years and General practice for a little over 1 year. I also did about 3 months in shelter medicine, but my heart was a little to hurt by the things I seen to stay very long. I have 4 cats and a dog of my own. I perfer cats but I have no fear of bigger breed dogs or the little guys. Pitties are my second favorite breed. I dont mind walks baths or giving a few extra cuddles. I am working full time in a small family owned animal clinic. I am around pets every day for 10 hours. I then come home to my 4 cats and 1 dog whom I love more then anything. My dog is fed twice a day and its on medications so giving medications is never a concern for me. My cats spend most of their day playing until I come home and we cuddle, the doggo is always right beside me.
“Caitlin has been so wonderful to have as a help with drop-in visits for our young puppy. She is quickly responsive, thorough and responsible. We would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I can administer medications (both oral & syringe), give baths, play/walk them, cuddle them or whatever your fur baby may need! I am a full time coach so I do travel some weekends & have practices but also have flexible hours throughout the week! Weekends I will inform if I am unable to help you with your animals. I live in a one bedroom apartment with me dog and one cat! Bailey is friendly and Nik is an orange cat so he usually keeps to himself! I can crate your baby if you need/want. If you have a fenced in yard I can play with your animals outside!
About: I have taken care of numerous types of pets, including puppies and kittens to grown adult dogs and cats. I have also dabbled with reptiles. I work full-time, but I am work from home so I have the availability to watch, feed, care for, etc any pet in my home. I care for every pet like they are my own, meaning I will make sure they have water and are fed on time. In addition to that bathroom breaks are guaranteed every 2-4 hours and play time through out the day is too.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Port Royal is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $37 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 820 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Port Royal. 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
