“Zee was amazing! Our cat gets really bad separation anxiety and Zee always went above and beyond. If you get nervous about leaving your pets, Zee is the sitter for you! She left us detailed messages with pictures and videos each visit. We will definitely be reaching out to Zee next time we have to leave our cat.”
“Wendy was great with our three cats - they were fed promptly twice each day and enjoyed playtime with her. Litter boxes were very well taken care of too! Wendy also put suet and seed out each day for our feathered friends outside (kitty TV) and brought back in each night. We got lots of pictures that helped reassure us things were going very well. We recommend Wendy!!”
“Dawn was amazing with our dog. We reached out to her last minute during holidays. She was able to accomodate us at short notice by dog sitting in our house. She was punctual and kept us in loop though out.”
“Kayla was great with my dog. He is older and can be a little stand-offish but she was very patient and understanding. She was communicative and let me know exactly how they were doing. I would definitely hire her again!”

About: I’m the owner of Gold Paw Trails N’ Tails, a professional dog walking and pet care business. I work with dogs every day and have hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, ages, energy levels and personalities. My experience includes puppies, seniors, large and small breeds, multi-dog households, high-energy dogs, and dogs who may be shy or anxious. I provide professional dog walking, drop-in care, group play, vacation care and boarding, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual routine and needs. Safety, reliability and communication are extremely important to me. I’m experienced with following detailed care instructions, managing different personalities and energy levels, and keeping pet parents updated while their dogs are in my care. Although I’m returning to Rover, I’m not new to professional pet care. This is what I do every day, and I treat every dog as an individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Pet care is my profession and a part of my daily routine. I own and operate a professional dog walking and pet care business, so my days are centered around caring for dogs. I offer weekday walks and drop-ins as well as vacation care and select weekend availability. I keep a structured schedule so every pet receives reliable, unrushed care. Safety and trust are always my priority. I follow each pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely and treat every client’s home with respect. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels and personalities, and I adjust my approach to what makes each dog feel most comfortable. Communication is also important to me, so pet parents can expect updates and photos while their dog is in my care.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. As a child, wife, mom and teacher, I have taken care of and loved many animals over the years. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, turtles, birds, fish. As an educator, I have open availability during the summer. I'd love to show your pet some extra TLC during your workday to ease your mind! I have all of my security clearances as an educator. I hope this helps provide you with peace of mind when I come to take care of your pet.
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, even when their family is away. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, an energetic adventure, or a drop-in visit filled with playtime, belly rubs, meals, potty breaks, or quiet companionship, every visit is tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Building trust with both pets and their families is my top priority. I take the time to make sure every dog and cat feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while keeping owners updated with plenty of photos and messages along the way. I have occasional time off, which I will be available to walk your dog or feed your dogs/cats and provide them with quality care. I have my own pets and love animals, so they will be in good hands. I will go to homes to feed or walk pets.
“Kristi was awesome. It was my first time leaving my babies with someone new and it seems they took to her right away, especially my special boy. She was very responsive, which was much appreciated. I will definitely be booking again !”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 30 years, starting when I was in second grade. I've owned several dogs throughout my life, including my current dog, Obi! All of my dogs have been part of my family since they were puppies, so I'm familiar with the patience, energy, and attention younger dogs need. Beyond caring for my own pets, I've also looked after dogs and cats for friends and family. I've cared for pets of different ages, including a senior cat, and understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply keeping your pet company while you're away, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I know how important pets are to their families, and I'll treat yours with the same care and attention I give my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine and can also accommodate house sitting when needed. I understand that everyone's schedule is different, so I'll do my best to find times that work for both you and your pet. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and comfortable when you're not home. Having pets of my own, I know how much trust goes into leaving them in someone else's care. When looking after your pets, I'll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I'll also make sure they're secure during walks and that their environment stays clean and comfortable. I respect both your home and your pet's personal space, and I'm always happy to send photos and updates so you know how they're doing while you're away.

About: Hello! I’m Stacey and pets have been a part of my life since childhood. I grew up with cats and have owned cats and dogs since I graduated from college. My cat Cabot and my dog Mocha both recently passed away at the incredible ages of 16 and 13 and they are so missed very missed. I have been a furball empty nesters for a little while now and would love to spend some quality time watching your fur babies! I absolutely love dog training, teaching tricks and playing challenging brain games with them to keep your pet entertained while they are staying with me. I am currently a stay at home mom, so your pets will have lots of company all day. Daily walks, play sessions, snuggles and indoor brain games are ways I enjoy engaging with the pets I am watching. I have a single family home with a fenced in backyard and a nice neighborhood for dog walks. I am a dog trainer at heart and love connecting with dogs through clicker and treat positive reward training games. I am home most of the day. When I leave the house I like to use the crate for safety and typically prepare a fun Kong frozen treat to keep them entertained.
About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was born. Caring for them is immensely rewarding to me, so much that I don’t consider it work. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets every time they are away, knowing that I will treat them as I do my own dogs, Zeke and Kona. I am a Drexel University student, but I will be off from school until January, so my schedule is open to care for your pets. Your pets' safety and well-being are my top priority, and I'll make sure to follow all instructions and routines to keep them happy and healthy. I am always respectful of my client’s homes.
About: Growing up surrounded by pets, I’ve been an animal lover since I was little! My experience includes feeding and caring for dogs and cats, animal enrichment through play and exercise, administering medications, and keeping a clean environment. As a pet parent myself, I understand every animal has individual needs and will make sure your pet is well cared for! I have a flexible schedule, and I’m able to provide animal care frequently. I am happy to work with each pets specific routine and schedule. I would follow the instructions the owner left and keep each pet’s routine as consistent as possible while treating the home and pet with respectful care.
“Amy is absolutely incredible! She is very flexible and hard working, always sends the cutest photos. Her positive, friendly demeanor made me instantly feel comfortable leaving my kitty with her. Best rover sitter I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to book her again! 🐈⬛💕”
“Sarafina did a great job caring for my cat, Lawrence! He just needed daily drop-in visits and she sent lots of photos. She stopped by beforehand to make sure she knew exactly what he needed and was friendly and knowledgeable! She did an excellent job with my instructions and gave him plenty of playtime while she stopped in. I highly recommend Sarafina for any of your pets needs!”

Wendy is AMAZING! I found her in a pinch and thank goodness I did! She was available at last minute, and is truly such an incredibly kind and caring individual. She has outstanding communication, loved on my kitties and sent me so many pictures and videos. I have a hard time trusting just anyone with my animals but had no worries with her taking care of Milo and Zima. I cannot wait to have her take care of them again soon!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rushland is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $21 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 9,426 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rushland. 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 Rushland. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
