“Fantastic service our pups were well taken care of and I felt so relaxed and at ease to enjoy our trip to niagara Falls! Marie sent pictures, was on time and did a great job! I would use her again and i recommend her to anyone! Thank you Marie!”
“Amanda is awesome! She was new to us this stay and she did such a wonderful job. We were out of state for four days and she took such good care of our Bernese, Frida. She sent us regular check ins and wonderful pictures of how she was doing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and conscientious dog lover to watch their fur friend (s).”
About: I have taken care of animals for family and friends for a few years now and want to expanded into caring into looking after the pets if other family’s that want to travel but unfortunately cannot bring their animals with them. I currently work in a restaurant as a line cook and have 5-8 hour days starting as early as 2pm and ending as late as 10pm so I am able to mostly do morning care and late night care but I can adjust my schedule as needed for emergency’s. I am able to adapt to any type of care needed including daily training or cleanup if needed and love to take my own dogs on walks and just relax with them when they are tired.
“We absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for help with their pet , she is a wonderful, caring, professional and kind person who adores animals!!! We were so thrilled with her services, and will definitely use her again. She came to our house for several weeks, doing drop-in visits with our dog when I was out of town working remote. I received a over Report Card everytime, detailing all the care and the fun that they had together. She also sent multiple pictures everytime as well. Millie looked forward to Samantha's visits and they became fast best friends. They played fetch, went on walks, had potty breaks and food breaks and lots of cuddling! Thank you Samantha:)”
“Mackenzie took good care of our bashful cat, Virgil, on her drop in visits. I was extremely glad that she was able to interact with him as he usually hides. She takes pictures not only of the cat but the areas dedicated for Virgil’s space.”
About: ⭐️ My pet sitting experience began in 2016 when I took care of my uncle’s black lab every day after school, my senior year of high school. ⭐️ That same year I took care of my aunt’s two cats for a week while house-sitting. ⭐️ My formal pet sitting experience began during the pandemic. For over a year, I stayed at my friend’s house for about 8 hours while she was at work. I would take her precious pit bull, Lala, out for walks; give Lala and her cat-sister, Sophia, their meds with breakfast, and treat them like the princesses they are. 🕰️ Monday through Friday, I work in the Village of Williamsville, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. 🗓️ My weekends are usually free 😇 ✅ Because my parents live nearby, they can keep my cats company so I can accommodate any house-sitting time requirements (e.g. “do not leave the house for more than two hours.”) ♥️ I care for my clients’ pets the same way I care for my cat-sons Remy and Kai. 🫶🏻 I give them all the attention they desire, and I do the less-than-desireable things—like washing the litter boxes monthly—with a smile because I know it’s what’s best for them.
“Second time having Natalie come and check on my cat while I was out of town. Natalie did an amazing job taking care of my cat and giving her the medications that she needs. Her attention to detail and caring attitude make going on a trip worry free.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Porter Center is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Porter Center
Barbie was great! She took good care of our kitties and spent the time needed for them to warm up to her, playing and giving affection. She also went above and beyond helping with house related things while we were away. She even dealt with an owl that got in our house through the chimney and had the composure and knowledge to get it out safely protecting both the kitties and the house. I appreciated her communication throughout the process and trip. I know she already has plenty of positive endorsement, but I would recommend her to anyone in the area who needs someone to watch their fur babies.
Barbie was fabulous! She offered to meet me and the kitties prior to her official start, she was prompt and communicative, she spent extra time with my cats on her first visit, and she cleaned their food bowls after their use. Something I really appreciate was that she asked me to let her know when I got back from my trip. You know someone truly cares about animals if they don’t consider their job done until they know the pets are back in safe hands. It’s so nice to know that if something happened to me that someone would be thinking of my cats and would have made sure that they were safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Porter Center is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 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 829 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Porter Center. 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 Porter Center. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
