“! Brooke did an excellent job walking and feeding my dog! She was reliable, attentive, and made sure my pup was well cared for. Communication was a breeze. Btooke responded quickly to texts and kept me updated. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

“Sandy is awesome and our Ziggy just loves her. We unexpectedly had to go away again a couple weeks after she watched him the last time. Couldn't be happier than being able to book Sandy again to check in on him, put us totally at ease. She is super and helped when our "hold mail" did not work with the Post office. Thanks Sandy, you are awesome and Ziggy loves you.”

About: I’ve volunteered at rescues, worked for a guide dog school, grooming salons and pet food stores and learned a lot of tricks and wisdom in my 13 years of owning and working with animals. Rescuing cats and dogs has been part of my life since I was 12, I know how to care for them at any stage of their life! I can handle giving medication, topically or orally. I can trim nails and bathe as an extra service and brush out a coat if given the right tools and opportunity. Walking around the neighborhood is no problem for me and taking pictures to update you is my specialty! I currently work part time and work full shifts Monday and Tuesday until 7pm; Wednesday and Saturdays are partial and end by 3pm so afternoons with your pup or kitty should be fine with me :)! Thursdays and Friday are free for me and I should have ample time to check on your pets more than once! Leaving me with a list through text or paper to follow about your little ones feeding regimen and/or medication will allow me to double check that everything is done with you before I leave. I will want to stay with your pet for at least an hour or more and give them the enrichment and socialization they need and will update with pictures to make you feel included :). I will take them outside for a potty at least 2x (once at the beginning and once at the end) and a walk in between to ensure they have an ample chance to use the bathroom. I will check around the house where they have access to ensure they haven’t gotten into anything or made a mess and if they have I will report it promptly to you through text or call depending on the urgency to not leave you with any surprises! At the end of the visit I will take a picture or short video of the pet to give you the peace of mind that they are safe when I leave.

About: Hi there! I’m an experienced pet caregiver dedicated to providing top-tier care for animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether your family includes a high-energy or high-anxiety dog, cat, or even a feathered friend, I have the hands-on experience needed to keep them safe, happy, and thriving while you are away. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, specific routine, and distinct communication style. My goal is to provide seamless, stress-free care that perfectly mimics their usual daily routine so you can have complete peace of mind. I have been passionate about animals my entire life. I have had dogs since I was born and gifted my first horse at the age of 4. Since then I have had the pleasure of keeping dogs of all sizes, horses, parrots, and many tropical aquariums. I currently have a high-anxiety German Shepherd and a pit-bull mix that are like my babies since I have no human children. I also love to go on long walks for exercise and would love to take your pup with me. I work remotely for an eye doctor and have a very flexible schedule. Due to this, I can be available for your pets whenever you need. It’s always stressful to leave our pets behind. Finding reliable care for your pets when you’re away should be easy. When staying at your home or dropping in for visits, my priority is keeping your environment secure and your animals completely comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I will send many check in photos and videos as well as communicate any questions or concerns so you feel like they’re right there with you.

“My parents were watching our Golden Retriever while we were at Disney world but wanted to join us at the parks for two of the days. In a bind we found Marie and she was a life saver, she picked her up from the hotel room, and brought her back to her apartment each day and returned her to the hotel at the end of the day. She took care of her as if she was her own. Would definitely recommend !”

About: I offer a safe and fun place for your dog(s) to visit while you’re away. No meet and greets are required if I can accommodate your booking request, however, if you prefer to have a meet and greet prior to making a booking for boarding, I ask that you please book a drop-in visit so that I can get to know your pup 😊 I have always had a dog growing up. Your pupster will be in loving hands with our family! Traveling? I have weekends available. If you need weekday service let’s talk to see if I can accommodate you and your pup! We’re a pretty active family and the pups are generally free to roam. I have a fenced backyard and my neighborhood has plenty of sidewalk space. Your pup will be loved on by me, my 6 year old, and our pup from the moment they enter our home. Don’t be alarmed if your pup is spoiled by the time you pick them up :-)

About: Hello! I’m Andrea, a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet caregiver. While I am new to the Rover platform, caring for furry family members has been a daily passion of mine for as long as I can remember. As a mom of two grown children, I understand that pets aren't just animals—they are family. My schedule is wonderfully flexible, allowing me to be fully present and reliable for your pet's needs. Because I manage my daily routine from home with dedicated time blocks, I am especially available for peak mid-day walks, morning energy burns, and afternoon drop-ins without rushing. You can count on me to show up on time, give your dog my undivided attention, and keep our routine completely stress-free for both of us. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. As a lifelong pet owner and mom, taking care of a home and family comes naturally to me, and I treat your pets and home with that exact same level of respect and vigilance.

About: I have had animals of all kind my whole life. My father raised and trained German Shepards when I was young so I was around dogs from birth. I’ve raised dog, goats, cows and donkeys. IAnd then at least one to two dogs have been in my home as a part of our family. I’ve traveled a lot and had to have my own sitters so I know how important is to feel comfortable with where my babies are and who they are with. I promise to treat your baby as if it were my own❤️ I currently work 4 days a week so I am very flexible Friday through Sunday. Monday through Thursday are very doable as well. Just let me know! I have a fenced in yard and a very large dog friendly home. We have 4 very small dogs who get along very well with others.

Jen currently works from home and can work from anywhere there is wifi. Our cat can stay at home and is pretty independent so we can focus on your pets while you’re away.

“Kaci helped me out with last minute dog & cat sitting when my friend unexpectedly cancelled the day before I left for a camping trip ? She kept me up to date with pictures from each drop in visit, and was always quick to respond to my messages. When I got home, I could tell my pets had been loved and well cared for while I was gone. I’ll definitely reach out to her again if I need pet sitting help in the future. Thanks Kaci!!”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Hannah, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. 🐾 I work from home part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me very flexible availability for drop-ins, walks, and boarding. I’m home often throughout the day, so your pup will get plenty of attention, care, and company while they’re with me! I have a dog of my own who is extremely friendly with other dogs. She is spayed, fully vaccinated, and loves having new friends around. I’m happy to provide vaccination records if requested. I also have a 4-month-old baby, so for boarding in my home, I can only accept dogs who are comfortable around both other dogs and young children. Your pet’s safety and comfort—as well as my family’s—is always my priority. For walks and drop-in visits, my baby may occasionally come along with me in the stroller. If you would prefer that I visit or walk your pup without my baby, just let me know when booking and we can discuss what works best! I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll treat your animals with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. ❤️ I work from home part time and create my own schedule so it’s very flexible! I am home all throughout the day. If i do step out, it’s only 1-2 hours at most. I can do drop ins and walks same day requests ! Also available on weekends/ holidays. I live in a home with a fence that has locks and I also have plenty of leashes. I will make sure your pup is safe at all times! My dogs Maya and Hunter are very comfortable with other dogs and both service dogs. We foster often as well. My dogs are both vaccinated and Maya my female husky/shepard is spayed.

Our two kitties are friendly but shy of strangers, so we didn't expect much interaction between them and Catherine. Not so; by the second day everyone was the best of friends, Maybe the cats can sense kindness because we believe Catherine went out of her way to be kind to them. She spent time with them and communicated promptly with us while we were gone. We loved what she did for us, and for sure she is our "go-to" person for future pet care.

I had to book Aspen very last minute due to a cancelation and she was definitely the right choice. I've never seen my cats warm up to someone so quickly. They clearly liked her. She also did a very good job of keeping the food, water, and litter box full and clean.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rubonia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rubonia is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $31 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 6,370 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rubonia. 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 Rubonia. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
