About: Hi there! I’m a dog loving gal for all the doggies in the world. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. I’ve bottle fed my dog personally until he could have puppy food. I started dog sitting for family three years ago and have done it ever since! Now, I’m excited to welcome your furry friend into my furry family! I’m currently between jobs, so I have plenty of free time to help you or your furry friends with anything you need for a safe, fun and loving experience! I have two furry family members with vastly different sizes and personalities. Despite their differences, they all require the same amount of love, but they have distinct needs. I treat my furry friends like children, and I’m sure you’ll want the same for yours!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who believes pets are family and deserve to be treated with kindness, patience, and respect. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your furry family members are safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m naturally attentive, dependable, and detail-oriented. I believe in following each pet’s individual routine, respecting their personality, and making sure they receive plenty of affection, enrichment, and attention. Whether your pet loves playing, exploring, cuddling, or simply relaxing in a familiar environment, my goal is to provide a positive, stress-free experience. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can enjoy peace of mind while they’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone your family can trust! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the week, depending on my family’s schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and love the opportunity to help pet parents feel confident that their furry family members are receiving attention and care while they’re away. I’m happy to discuss scheduling needs and work together to find a routine that works for everyone! I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes because I believe animals are often most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s beloved pet and respecting their home very seriously. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications when appropriate, playtime, and household routines. I always prioritize safety, including securing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes, and being mindful of each animal’s individual needs and temperament. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big decision. I strive to provide dependable, compassionate care while maintaining clear communication. I’m happy to send photos and updates during visits so you can relax knowing your pet is being cared for. My goal is to make every visit a safe, comfortable, and positive experience for your pet!
“Courtney was an absolute doll! I was so nervous leaving my pets for 10 days while we were on a cruise but Courtney was in constant contact with me 3 times a day, sending pictures and updates. She even went overboard to make friends with my skittish cat, who she won over after a few days! I highly recommend her. She was kind, gentle and patient with my pets and we will definitely be using her services again for our next vacation. Thank you Courtney for loving on Diesel and Danté. ❤️”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Poyen is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $27 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 173 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Poyen. 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
