About: Ever since I was a child, I have always been a pet sitter. Whether it be a neighbor, friend, or family member, I have taken care of a wide variety of pets, ranging from just stopping in to drop-ins and week-long boarding. Additionally, as a former dog owner myself, I am familiar with what’s needed to keep your pup happy! Unfortunately, my landlord doesn’t allow pets, so my services are limited to drop-in visits and walks. I’m currently a law student, but I am go-getter and will find the time to fit your pets with my current class schedule. My availability is as follows: Monday: 4-10pm Tuesday: 2-10pm Wednesday: 7am-1pm. Thursday 11:00am-10pm Friday 1pm-10pm Saturday and Sunday: All Day availability I will be comfortable with whatever tasks you require of me to ensure your pets are well-taken care of; whether it be dropping in just to feed them, playing with them, etc. For walks, I’m comfortable with any level of activity necessary. Whether it’s just around the block or entire neighborhood, I will have no issues keeping up with your pet!

About: I am a just starting at Pace Law and missing my animals deeply. I have made a summer job the past few years dog sitting. I have a wide variety of experience, from caring for three 60lbs+ lap dogs for a week to three cats I would barely see. I love every animal like it is my own (smothered in love) and I make sure to take lots of pictures (I can’t help it!). I am starting my law school journey and I am looking to schedule in some animal time. I am completely free after 4 most days for walks or dinner time and have open weekends. I have lots of experience with animals of many different needs and can easily adapt to instruction. I will be sure to love your baby and provide care above and beyond.

About: I've had pets my whole life, both dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I am especially able to take care of animals with health issues. My current cat, Oliver has 3 legs and my dog, Chewy, has epilepsy. I'm currently a law student, so I have time to pet sit and take your pets for a walk after classes on weekdays and on weekends. I am able to take care of pets in your home. I have reliable transportation so I can be there when you and your pet need me. I am detail-oriented and will do my best to follow any schedules or instructions you have for your pet.

About: Hi! I’m Kelly, a lifelong animal lover, professional treat-giver, and former dog mom to my sweet girl, Princess, for 13.5 amazing years. From daily walks to medication routines, I’ve handled it all with love and care. Whether your fur baby needs a snuggle buddy, a midday walk, or someone to keep an eye on them while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and have my own vehicle, so I’m reliable and flexible when it comes to pick-ups, drop-offs, or emergency needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and I treat every animal like my own. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! Pet care fits into my routine pretty seamlessly. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of the best parts of my week! I have a flexible schedule, my own car, and I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk around the block, or a weekend stay, I make the time because I truly love being around animals. After 13.5 years with my own dog, it just feels natural to keep giving that kind of love and care to other pets. I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. I'm also more than happy to pet sit in your own home if that's what you prefer.

About: I have a Scottish Terrier at home and I've had her for 5 years now. Over the years we've hosted numerous dogs, giving me hands-on experience with various breeds and temperaments. Additionally, I run a pet care brand (Modern Kindred), which has motivated me to study pet biology and behavior for the last 3 years. This combination of personal experience and professional knowledge allows me to provide informed, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work from home running my pet wipes brand, so I'm available throughout the day. I only make trips to the post office once a day, but otherwise I'm home with my dog (who is energetic and loves playing with other dogs). This means I can provide consistent attention and supervision for any pets in my care. I create a safe environment by removing any objects that dogs could chew on and only providing durable, indestructible toys with no loose pieces. I always supervise dogs closely and stay in the same room with them to ensure their safety and wellbeing at all times.

“Shawn is awesome. He came for a meet and greet and our two cats were comfortable with him right away. Our boys have a special diet & one needs insulin and Shawn handled all of it with no issues - he even made his visits earlier than requested to keep the boys on their schedule. He’s very communicative and gives detailed notes on the visits - and lots of pictures. It was all very reassuring and our boys were happy and relaxed upon our return. Will continue to use Shawn as long as he’s available. Highly recommended! Thanks, Shawn!”

About: I had my very own dog when she was born until she passed. I absolutely love animals and will treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I can make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’m patient, caring, and always follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable. You can count on me to give your pet lots of attention—and I’ll even send photo updates so you can see how great they’re doing Currently work a full time job weekdays to provide for my daughter and I. I’m available both Saturday and Sundays after 10:30am that way I can spend time with your fur baby and love/care for them as my own. When I care for pets, whether it’s in my home or a client’s, I can make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their normal routine for meals, walks, and playtime so everything feels familiar to them. I love giving them lots of attention, cuddles, and play! If I’m in a client’s home, I’m always respectful and keep things tidy. I also like to send updates and cute pictures so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away.

“So grateful for Leigh. She took excellent care of my senior cat for over a week. Mid-trip, my cat started refusing his medicine. Leigh was confident and able to administer his medication regardless (via oral pill, something I myself I have never had success doing - I usually get him to lick it off a spoon covered in churu). She even stayed past her contracted time to make sure that he would receive his medication. Leigh truly cares for cats. She had a very comforting effect on my Pablo, I could see from photos he looked content and relaxed. Thank you, Leigh!!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have been hands-on with them my entire life. I was raised with two Australian Shepherds, later had two doodles, and I personally trained my dog Eli from the ground up. I also groom Eli regularly and groom friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable with handling, coat care, and reading dog behavior up close. I currently live with three dogs — Eli, Leo, and Nala — and manage different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels every day. I’ve never been bitten by a dog and take pride in staying calm, aware, and respectful of each dog’s boundaries. I genuinely love dogs and spend a lot of time outdoors. An active, structured, routine-based lifestyle is natural for me, and that aligns closely with how dogs thrive. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it fits my lifestyle and mindset. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily and weekly routine. I brush all three of my dogs every week and regularly groom each of them. Because we go to the beach multiple times per week, I also wash and dry them weekly to keep their coats and skin healthy. They are all different breeds with different coat types, which has given me strong hands-on experience managing a variety of grooming and care needs. Daily exercise is a priority — I walk and rollerblade with them every day, making structured activity and outdoor time a consistent part of our routine. I provide a structured, calm, and consistent environment. I actively monitor and work with all three of my dogs every day, reinforcing good behavior through positive reinforcement. Dogs naturally pick up on each other’s behaviors, habits, and rewards, so maintaining a balanced pack dynamic is a priority in my home. I focus on clear expectations, routine, and calm leadership so dogs feel secure and relaxed. By consistently reinforcing positive behaviors and addressing issues early, I help create a safe, well-managed environment where dogs can thrive together.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Purchase

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Purchase on Rover is $29.97 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 25,745 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Purchase. 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 Purchase 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 Purchase. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.
