“Joanna did a phenomenal job! Followed our instructions to the letter and took amazing care of our babies! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. We will definitely be rebooking.”
“Alexis was amazing! She was always on time, super reliable, and gave great updates with notes and photos after every visit. She even checked that our home looked good for showings, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend and would definitely book with her again!”
About: I have taken care of my cat Lily since she was about 8 weeks old and now she’s 14 and still thriving. I had two french bulldog puppies that were also around 8 weeks old that I took care of as well. I now live with my boyfriend who has a 2 year old golden retriever and a 10 year old rescue lab mix who has trauma responses. Since I have moved in and lived here for about a year now he only sleeps in my room with me. I’m currently doing online college and am looking for something productive to do in my free time. I typically work on schoolwork in the mornings and am free the rest of the afternoon. I will care for your pets in any way that you ask me to. I understand how important pets are to families and that’s some pets have specific necessities or have a certain routine.

I work part time at a restaurant so I have more than enough time to provide high quality and detailed care to your furry family members.

As the care would only happen in your home, I take great pride in leaving the home better than I found it and ensuring your pets health, comfortability, and safety with the information and materials provided to me.
“I wanted Day to spend some time with my dogs prior to an extended dog sit. My GSD likes to jump on people who enter the house and gets very excited. Day took charge and let Mira know to get off and waited for her to calm down before proceeding. Both dogs have specific needs ranging from sensitive stomach issues to elderly care issues. Day got to spend time with the dogs while I left them alone to get acquainted. The visit went well. Dogs were snuggled up on the couch with Day upon my return.”
“Cynthia was great! She was prompt, attentive, and went above and beyond to take care of our high-maintenance senior kitty. It was such a relief knowing our buddy was in capable hands while we were away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ranson
Olivia is wonderful!! She seamlessly picked up all the details of caring for our two pit mixes. She is professional and kind, and I felt very comfortable having her handle our beloved dogs. I am selective with my dog walkers, and Olivia absolutely fit the bill🙂
David did an outstanding job taking care of my cat, Jaxson, while I was out of town. He was very communicative throughout the entire stay and regularly sent photos and videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while traveling. Jaxson can be territorial and isn't always the friendliest cat with new people, so I was pleasantly surprised to see him playing and interacting with David. That alone tole me a lot about his patience and ability to connect with animals (the cat whisperer). I can tell he loves all animals! David also went above and beyond with the little things. He kept the litter box clean, rinsed out the food cans, left everything neat and tidy, and figured out a few household routines that I forgot to explain. When I returned home, everything looked great and Jaxson was happy and well cared for. I trusted David with access to my home while I was away, and he proved himself to be reliable, thoughtful, and professional. I would gladly hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.
We would highly recommend Chelsea! We made last minute plans and she was able to accommodate our schedule. I’m (ridiculously) protective of my dog and was nervous about having someone in to care for him. Chelsea put my mind at ease immediately. She was professional, very compassionate, and has a lot of experience with dogs of all temperaments. I enjoyed her frequent updates and photos, I could see that our dog was being well cared for and had connected well with Chelsea. We will definitely use her again!!
Haleigh responded very quickly to a last-minute need for a sitter. She understood the situation and the needs of the dogs and proved that she is one of the best. She provided me with updates on the dogs as well as weather related issues that needed to be addressed. As an example, power was lost in the heat of the day, and she came to the house to close the curtains to minimize the heat in the house. Simply thoughtful. Would I recommend her to others and use her talents again? Quite certainly. 6/5
As a pet sitter myself, I’m pretty particular about who I trust with my pets. Catherine took such great care of my cat, Boo, and I’m so glad I chose her. She was attentive, kind, and clearly took the time to understand Boo’s routine and personality. I really appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat. I’d absolutely trust Catherine again and can highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ranson is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $33 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 2,274 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ranson. 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 Ranson. 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.
