“We couldn’t be happier with the care that Mary provides for our dog. Bodger aka Huevo absolutely loves her and it’s clear that Mary genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She has also been incredibly flexible and accommodating with our changing work schedules which has been such a help Because our dog is a rescue finding someone we could completely trust was extremely important to us. Mary exceeded our expectations and gave us peace of mind from the very beginning. Knowing Huevo is safe and happy and well cared for when we’re away is priceless. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a dependable and caring and trustworthy dog sitter!”

“Wonderful! Julia provided great service and peace of mind. I was put at ease with her immediately and did not worry about my cats during our week away. The daily check-ins were admired by my children (who missed their pets tremendously) and I was impressed by the care displayed during an unexpected weather event. I will book with Julia again!”

“Taylor has a genuine compassion for pets. Jolene was quick to make friends with her. I knew that Jolene was in good hands and Taylor went above and beyond to bring some packages in off my front porch. I’ve already booked Taylor again for the next time I’m out of town!”

“We’ve used Ashlea for our high energy puppy as well as our 2 cats and she did a great job! Even when the puppy has some excitement pee problems, no issues 😅 she’s very communicative, punctual, and even helped us out for extra house care duties because of an emergency. Completely dependable :)”

“I highly recommend Taylor as a pet sitter/pet walker. Taylor is extremely punctual and has a wonderful relationship with the dogs. Not only does he take them outside for walks, but he also sends pictures to provide updates. Taylor's professionalism and care for the pets make him an excellent choice for anyone in need of pet sitting or walking services.”
“Lauren was awesome on drop in visits and walks for us. Great communicator who let us know about a plumbing issue that arose while we were gone. We were very happy we booked again with her.”

“We had booked Jonah to watch our girls on short notice while we had to go out of state for a few days. He had gone out of his way to revisit the pups a few extra times to ensure that they received the care and playtime they needed. Jonah really showed his love for animals when caring for our pups. He made sure that they got more than enough potty breaks and lots of love, attention, and TREATS! Jonah always provided us with updates, along with pictures, during his visits and made us aware of any problems that may have occurred. He would also ask us any questions he had during his visits to ensure that everything was correct. After having Jonah take care of our girls, we can really see that he cares and loves them just as much as we do. We will definitely be contacting Jonah to watch over our fur babies in the future!”


“Tabitha came to feed, water, and play with my kitty while we were away. She scooped litter, and even brought a large package inside for us that was delivered after we had already left town. I could tell by the adorable photos she sent us that our fur baby was having a great time. If you’re in need of a cat-sitter, I highly recommend Tabitha!”

About: I've had dogs and cats in my house practically my entire life and have had the opportunity to watch friends' pets on multiple occasions. I have now been a part of the Rover Community for about 3 years. I am comfortable walking dogs, feeding and bathing and cleaning up after pets, as needed. I have a full-time job working 7 hours/day Monday-Friday so I am only available for weekend sitting services, unless your pet can be alone for long periods of time. Please feel free to reach out with any questions/concerns. I am available for house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking in client's home after 3pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. These would include potty breaks, feeding, walking and bathing client's pets as needed. I am willing to stay overnight as well. I can not watch pets at my own house as my own cat does not do well with other animals.
“Joanna takes good care of my kitty. She sent us some pictures during our travel. Thanks to her, our travel was with no worries. This is the first time I hire a pet sitter through Rover, and I am pretty satisfied.”

“Absolutely went above and beyond caring for my fur babies. My family and I will definitely being using Janet whenever we go out a town again and again. Highly recommend!!”


About: I've been around dogs since the day I was born. My Father was the K9 officer throughout middle school and high school so I learned how to train and handle dogs from watching and attending the police training programs. I've had dogs of my own for the last 17 years, and am currently a proud dog mom to an amazing 5 year old Sheltie and 9 year old Labrador, who get along very well with other dogs. I work from home, so I'm able to be around to monitor your pup while at my place constantly. If I do head out while sitting at my house, it's usually only for a few hours at a time and the dogs will remain separated. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of rooms for the dogs to run, play and just be dogs. I'm adaptable to your dogs needs for food, sleep, and play time. I'm able to take the dogs on extended walks around the neighborhood, and also make sure they get ample exercise running around the back yard during their stay. Lots of pictures can be provided, as I know it's a comfort knowing your dog is loved when you're not around! :) I work from home so I have an incredibly flexible schedule and am always around. If I do leave the house, the dogs will be separated and never left alone together. For first time visitors, pets are slowly introduced to both my dogs and children. They are constantly monitored and will always have a set of eyeballs on them.
About: I've had dogs, cats, and rabbits but have also cared for guinea pigs, turtles and fish. Caring for your pet the way you do is most important. I am available most days and times. My open availability leaves you with piece of mind knowing there's someone that can help any time of the day. I have a big yard and will be spending lots of time outside. Really big on taking hikes, and playing ball. Staying hydrated will also be priority.non smoker.
“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”

“Brandon was so great with our girls! He & his wife came over a week before we left & met us & our dogs and we knew immediately that we were making the best choice. We received updates & pictures of our girls twice a day & we could tell they were happy & feeling loved. We were gone for a week & our dogs normally don’t eat much at all when we are gone, but they felt comfortable & safe enough with Brandon & Leah that they did! Our trip was so much more enjoyable knowing that our girls were in the best hands! We give them the highest recommendation!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Prospect on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,165 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Prospect. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Prospect stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Prospect. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
