“Dawn is so thoughtful and sweet. We are extremely thankful to have connected with someone who can manage our senior cats medication and feeding schedule. It's nice to know when we travel that Callie will get lots of love and treats.”

“Amanda was a terrific caregiver for Jake and Henry. She checked on them daily, took time to play with Jake (Henry is a grump), and sent photos and updates to me. She is a great communicator and obviously loves animals. This gave me tremendous peace of mind on our three-week trip, especially because Jake was new to us one month before we left! Highly recommend!”
About: By honoring my angels by giving yours the absolute safest, loving, protective and the deepest peace of mind every parent deserves just like they were my own. I also have my Grooming License out of Fort Lauderdale Florida as well as training dogs for the Sheriffs Department. My family has owned dogs since I was born. Being brought up in a family home of well over 6 dogs at a time, because I would take dogs off the street and keep them……. my dad would say to me, Joey please stop bringing in strays off the street. We can’t afford it! I have recently lost two very precious dogs within 10 days of each other and I have decided to help other people with their precious loved ones. So please let me take care of your loved ones while you’re gone at work or on a trip and give them the love and care that I would give my own dogs if they were still living. I have all day for my dedicated dog days, but while my set days off are Thursday through Sundays feel free to message me to see if my part-time work hours can accommodate your specific needs. Ready to lots of love, hugs and plenty of snuggles. We can always arrange something for your precious family members. Your dog safety is my absolute top priority as it was for my two dogs. I have a full fenced in secure backyard where your babies can run and play without a worry plus a dog door gives them the freedom to safely move between the cozy indoors and the sunny backyard wherever they please. Having cared for my own dogs, my entire life I know how fast they can get into mischief. My home is completely dog-proofed, hi in secure and tailored to give your total peace of mind while you are away. I understand deeply that your dog is your whole heart. I treat my home like a sanctuary for them.-there are no gaps in the fence and no hazards as well as absolutely no compromises when it comes to their protection and comfort.
“Miranda gave us the peace of mind we’ve been looking for for our two beautiful cats. We have been doing of family vacation for six years and this is the first year I have been able to be worry free. Miranda sent messages and pictures of each visit, in my opinion, she took care of our cats like they were her own. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the time and care you gave our boys , we will definitely use Miranda again if she’s available ♥️”

About: I have always had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I've taken care of dogs ranging in all different sizes and breeds most my life. I have experience in dog care from volunteering at Harbor Humane Society's and animal shelters along with caretaking for dogs at home. I have experience in catering to old and newborn dogs aswell as dogs that require medications and "extra" help around the house. I’m currently only working 4 days a week(Monday- Thursday) which gives me plenty of time to care for animals over the weekend. I'm more than happy to be of service for your furry best friend! I care for pets as if they are my own and treated with the utmost respect and safety as if they were royalty. If they need any special treatment or needs I will gladly accommodate them. Examples would be crates, treats, medicine, routines, animal food, etc. Unfortunately rover takes 20% of all earnings, which is due to the price increase if you’ve booked with us before, thank you for your understanding.

About: I have a lifelong love for animals and currently have both a dog and a kitten of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets! I work in healthcare, which has made me very responsible, attentive, and detail oriented. I have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving environment while keeping you updated for peace of mind :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dog and kitten every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. Because I work in healthcare, I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully, which allows me to reliably commit to the pets I’m caring for. I make sure to dedicate quality time for visits, walks, and check-ins so pets aren’t rushed and receive my full attention. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I prioritize consistency, safety, and making sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can keep their environment as consistent and stress free as possible. This includes feeding schedules, fresh water, walks or litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely while giving pets companionship and reassurance while their family is away. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with supervision and structured routines so pets feel secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Port Sheldon
Dawn was an exceedingly reliable and personable pet sitter for our indoor and outdoor cats. Our shy indoor girl was quickly won over and looked forward to Dawn's visits, brushing and playtime. We enjoyed getting the daily pics and reports. Communication throughout the entire booking and engagement was stellar. We will absolutely ask for Dawn next time we're both away from home!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Port Sheldon is $16 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 1,468 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Port Sheldon. 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 Port Sheldon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
