“Claudia has been amazing with Daisy! It’s so nice to know someone is stopping in to check on her while I’m at work and Daisy appreciates the extra attention. Daisy gets so excited whenever Claudia walks in the door and we’re grateful someone loves our fur baby as much as we do!”

“Samantha was amazing with my cat! I had an emergency because there was a fire alarm in my building and I panicked about my cat’s safety. I called Samantha and she immediately replied and stopped by to check in on my kitty after the regular daily visit. She made sure that he was ok and told me that the alarm was in the building next to mine. I was so relieved and so thankful to her for going the extra mile in this situation!!! She even offered to bring my cat to her place if necessary, which I really appreciated.”

About: My wife and I are around the house most of the time. One of us will almost always be home. We have a large fenced yard with room to run and explore, a deck, and a patio for lounging or sunbathing. Always look forward to meeting new dog friends. I’ll take good care of your furry family members and keep them happy. I am 54 years old and have been a lifetime dog owner and foster home for dogs. We have adopted two Bassett Hounds (spayed & neutered) who would enjoy the four-legged company. I work from home, which allows me to be home with the dogs i sit. If I have to run some errands my wife will be here. We do have the occasional family outing, but limit the time we are away. I have a large fenced backyard to run and play in, a large couch to sleep on, and two Bassett hounds to play with. I am experienced with giving medications and special care needs.

“Robin has become Auntie Robin to our cat Maui?Not only did Maui get amazing care from Robin but he made a new friend! We feel so blessed that we picked Robin on the Rover app. She was a perfect fit! For once we could go on our vacation and not worry about our baby being neglected. My only wish was that I had discovered Rover (and Robin) sooner. The peace of mind we got from having someone like Robin come every day was mind blowing. Not only did she do the regulars (feeding, replenishing water, scooping litter) but she also brought in our mail and packages and took the time to connect with Maui through daily play and grooming. He got the full spa treatment! Robin sent us the cutest videos because she knew how much we missed our pet. She even fully cleaned out the litter box (I had just asked her to scoop)! Robin A. is trustworthy, gentle, and full of love. She truly is the best pet sitter you could ever find and we will continue using her for every trip. Thanks Rover for letting us find Auntie Robin???”

About: I grew up with dogs and have had my own, as well as cared for friends’ pets. I also worked as a dog walker (prior to the existence of Rover) and at a doggy daycare. I absolutely love dogs and would like to give your dog the care they deserve! I work from home and have flexibility with my schedule, so I can do drop-in visits and/or dog walking throughout the day, every day of the week. I am very flexible, depending on the needs and requests for each pet. If there are any allergies, behavioral tendencies that I should be aware of, please let me know.

About: I've taken care of my own cats and dogs and for friends/family my whole life. Pets bring joy to me. Experienced with senior care, but not with puppies training. I work 6:30-15:00, Mon-Fri. My office is 5 miles from the apartment. When I have my own pets, I walk them at 4:45 and 6:00 prior to leaving. I take 1 hours lunch break around 11:30 to come home to walk my pets and have lunch with them. I come home around 15:30 to walk them again. My pets love their 17:00 dog social at nearby dog park. I spend the evening working out and cooking with my pets by my side. Walk once again before bed around 20:00. Repeat again around 4:45 next day. Generally, pets can enter any rooms, but I have a gate to fence off certain area, as needed. I shared custody of 2 female dogs with my ex spouse, they are with me a few days a week, they are 5 and 9 years old. They are gentle and wonderful companion to human and other dogs. I will accommodate to not having my dogs around for cat boarding.

About: I have taken care of friends, colleagues and neighbors pets over the past 20 years. Some of my residents would not trust their pets to anyone else (so I was told). Pet care would fit into my daily or weekly routine just nicely at this time. I was laid off recently and what better ways to spend my days than with animals. I have two big dogs and a cat but my daughter lives with me so I can come and care for your pets in your home while my pets are taken care of by my daughter.

Great communication, kind to people and pets. We had to last minute change our trip dates due to a pet injury. Scotty was still able to accommodate us and took great care of our injured dog and two cats. His prompt communication, flexibility, and compassion towards our dog was much appreciated Thanks so much!

Jackie was a delight to work with, as always! When I had forgotten to confirm an important booking detail, Jackie reached out to proactively ensure she had all the necessary information and went above and beyond to make sure our cat got the care she needed on time. She also sends the sweetest photos, and our cat adores her.

Overall the best person I've found to watch my three cats so far! Very reliable and considerate with the times we agree on prior. Additionally, Debra has gone out of her way to make extra visits that were not requested simply because she was already nearby. Clearly loves animals. Very thankful for her help and fully recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their cats.

Julianne was a diligent, confident, and thoughtful dog sitter for my dog Terra. I felt completely at ease knowing Terra was being well taken care of. My dog can be fearful and reactive but Julianne was calm and professional, and Terra was safe and happy the whole time I was away! Will book Julianne again and highly recommend her service!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rose Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rose Hill is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 15,601 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rose Hill. 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 Rose Hill. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
