“Bonnie is awesome! She is reliable and takes wonderful care of our puppy. She even works with him on training and brought him a new toy for his progress! We are thrilled to have found someone that takes care of our puppy like we would and that we trust in our home.”

“Abigail was wonderful. She took great care of our cat, always made sure that he was well loved and looked after while we were gone. Abigail was also great at communicating and was super attentive to details. We would definitely book Abigail again.”


“Annie was so great! She checked in every day, she played with our babies and she took great care of them. She even made our kitties toys! When we got home, everything was just as we left it and Annie left us a little note with an update of her stay. It was very appreciated! We highly recommend Annie and hope she will watch our kitties again in the future!”
About: I have owned and loved dogs for my entire life and have years of experience handling, raising, caring for, and training dogs of my own. I am experienced in handling dogs of various ages/breeds and I am extremely intentional about the care I provide. I have an energetic 1.5 y/o hound dog who is my entire world, giving me ample experience with dog handling and walking. I provide safe and reliable transportation (seatbelt for pup) to and from local parks and trails and I also walk in any weather, providing winter/rain jackets for your dog as well as a post-walk wipe down for muddy paws. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies!! As I return to school as a graduate student I am looking to make pet care my full time job, giving me plenty of time and flexibility to work with you and your pet’s needs. I am very intentional about ensuring the safety of the pets I care for. Your pet will be given my undivided attention while in my care.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and ages, from Pomeranian puppies to a full-grown Great Dane! I started pet sitting while in college, and I still enjoy helping my mom care for the dogs she boards, as well as watching my mother-in-law’s doodle. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m excited to get back into pet sitting and would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member as if they were my own! I work full-time Monday through Thursday, but I’m available for early morning visits before work as well as most evenings during the week. I have more flexibility on Fridays and weekends! I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs and routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will make sure your furry family member gets plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I know how important it is for pets to feel safe in their own environment, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines and follow any instructions you provide. I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs your pet may have. I’ll treat your home with respect and make sure your furry family member receives plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands!

About: With over 15 years of experience caring for animals, I’ve had the opportunity to work with all kinds of pets and their unique needs. My experience includes working as a veterinary technician, pet and farm sitting, administering medications, wildlife rehabilitation, senior pet care, and exotic animal care—and that’s just the beginning! I understand that your pets are family, and leaving them in someone else’s care can be stressful. My goal is to provide the same patience, compassion, and attention to detail that I would want for my own animals, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced and caring hands. We both work during the week, but we’re home the majority of the time on weekends and have a flexible schedule that allows us to give your pets plenty of attention. I work at a veterinary hospital just 3 minutes from home, so I’m able to easily come home throughout the day if needed. I also have extended lunch breaks, which gives me the opportunity to spend several hours at home during the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. Our schedule allows us to provide plenty of companionship, care, and attention throughout the day, so your pets can feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Our home is relaxed, loving, and easygoing, and we want every pet who stays with us to feel like part of the family. We do ask that all pets are comfortable around other animals so everyone can get along and have a safe, stress-free stay. We have a large, fully fenced backyard with a 6-foot privacy fence, giving the dogs plenty of safe space to run, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We spend lots of time outside playing, getting some exercise, and enjoying the yard together. And yes—dogs are absolutely welcome on the furniture and even in the bed! Our own two fur babies have us pretty well trained, so your pups can enjoy the same level of comfort. Your pet’s health and safety are incredibly important to us. I’m a trained veterinary technician and CPR-trained, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced hands. If a health concern ever comes up, I’m able to assess them and, if necessary, bring them with me to the veterinary hospital where I work so they can be properly evaluated. For the safety and health of every pet in our home, we require all visiting pets to be current on Bordetella, Distemper/Parvo, and Rabies vaccinations. We are also a flea-free home, so all pets must be on a current monthly flea and tick preventative. This is a requirement for every pet staying with us and helps ensure that everyone—including our own fur babies—stay happy, healthy, and comfortable. Our goal is simple: while you’re away, we want your pet to feel safe, loved, spoiled, and right at home.
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs! I previously worked professionally as a dog handler and walker at Biscuits & Bath in New York City, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. Through this experience, I learned how important patience, attentiveness, and consistency are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, keeping them engaged and active, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I take the responsibility of caring for them seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, experienced hands! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care is something I look forward to incorporating into my daily routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll always do my best to work around their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I’m also happy to discuss specific scheduling needs to find an arrangement that works best for you and your pet! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! My professional experience working with dogs has taught me how important it is to be attentive, patient, and aware of each animal’s behavior and individual needs. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to respect their environment and maintain the routines they’re most comfortable with. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special care requirements. I’m especially mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, using appropriate leashes and equipment, and ensuring pets are always supervised when necessary. I also understand that some animals may be nervous around new people, so I take a gentle approach and allow them to become comfortable at their own pace. I believe communication is an important part of building trust, and I’m always happy to send pictures and regular updates throughout each visit. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and completely cared for!

“We have just started using Jacquelyn as our sitter for daily visits and she is great!! The animals and us love her! I have two cats and two dogs and she is so great with all of them and I feel so good knowing my pets are being cared for during the day!”

About: I have had pets all of my life and absolutely love animals! I love meeting new dogs and giving them the most comfortable experience while their humans are on a getaway! I currently have 2 Goldendoodles, Sadie and Duke both under the age of 5 so high energy and big dogs are no problem! Friends and Family members always come to me when they need a sitter because they know how much I adore dogs! I do have experience with special needs animals as well so that is also not a problem. I work from home 8-5 Monday - Friday so if I were staying in your home sitting I would be there all day to attend to the dogs needs and for potty breaks and small bladders! I do not mind walking your dog to go potty throughout the day or meeting the needs specific for your pup. I will always treat your dog just as I would my own!

About: Grown up with animals all my life. They are my people and I treat them how I want to be treated.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for approximately 8 years, beginning in middle school when I started helping my mom care for pets in our community. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. I provide dependable, loving care and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, feeding, administering basic medications, playtime, or overnight stays, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away from home. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule and am able to accommodate pet care visits throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day.

About: I'm not one to boast so I'll let one of my recent client reviews speak for me: From the very beginning, it was clear that our dogs were in the best possible hands. They instantly warmed up to her, and she treated them with the kind of love and attention you'd expect from a family member. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and adorable photos, ensuring their routine was followed perfectly. It wasn't just about checking off tasks-she genuinely loved our dogs aS if they were her own, and that made all the difference. When we came home, the house was spotless, and our dogs were completely content. They adored her, and it is like they are still waiting for her to come back. She made such a lasting impression on all of us, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so special. ------- I currently work remotely part-time so I have the flexibility and freedom to help others. I enjoy animals, but enjoy traveling too much to get one of my own. That's one of the reasons why I love sitting is because I get to help others when they travel with their beloved pets. It's a nice, temporary swap and change. With good instructions, I make a great sitter especially when given a checklist. I also appreciate a simple outline of the animals' routine so that I can keep their schedule and comfort levels high. I want the pet to feel like their owner went to run an errand and will be right back, even if they're actually gone for an extended period of time.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Roughedge is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $34 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 4,279 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Roughedge. 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.

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.
