“Erin helped us out last minute with some drop in visits to take our two puppies and older dog out for potty/play breaks when we were going to be out of the house for longer periods of time than usual. She was great with them, especially with my boy who was being difficult for her. I highly recommend going to Erin for your pet sitting needs, and I definitely plan to book with her again in the future! Thank you, Erin!!! :-)”

“Lisa was great with our puppies for a few drop-in visits while we were out of town for the day. She kept in contact when she was at our house and provided updates with how the puppies were doing along with some pictures. We got back late, so she even checked the next morning to make sure they were okay when we got home which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Lisa for all of your dog sitting needs! Thank you so much, Lisa!!”

“I’m so happy I found Adriana in time for our trip! She did an amazing job with my big pup. She spent plenty of time on visits, took great pictures, and even brought extra toys for fetch. She also made sure all meds were taken. I would definitely hire her again.”

About: I have cared for dogs of various ages, sizes, and personalities for friends and family members over the years. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. My boyfriend, who will be joining me on walks, grew up with dogs and has plenty of experience caring for them as well. We also love participating in shelter “Skip Days,” where we take dogs out of the shelter for walks and quality time. We look forward to giving your pup the same love, attention, and care we would give our own! Pet care fits perfectly into our routine because we both work during the week and are available on weekends. We’re happy to work with your schedule and make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and love! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. Before each walk, we’ll make sure we understand your dog’s routine, personality, walking habits, and any special instructions you provide. We’ll keep your dog securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, and give them plenty of attention throughout the walk. We’ll also treat your home and belongings with care and leave everything just as we found it. We want you to feel confident knowing your pup is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away!

About: I have about 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have always enjoyed being around animals. My in-laws also had 10 dogs, which gave me even more experience being around different dogs and understanding their needs and personalities. I’m comfortable around dogs and enjoy giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I will treat every pet as if they were part of my own family! I work part-time as a youth secretary at my church and spend the rest of my time being a mom. My flexible schedule allows me to make time for pet care, dog walking, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I enjoy being outdoors with my kids and would love to include caring for your furry family member in my routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities! I will follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special needs your dog may have. I believe in providing a loving, patient, and safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I will keep you updated and treat your furry family member with the same love and attention I give my own family.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was young. I understand that pets are apart of the family and how difficult it is to leave them behind when on vacations. That’s why it’s so important to me to make sure there is someone who treats my animals the same way! Alex (my significant other) and I would love nothing more than making sure your furry friend remains comfortable and safe while you are away. Alex and I both work through the day but live very local (5 minutes from our home) so we can check on them throughout the day if needed. We are also very active so pets that need extra walking or a hike is not a big issue for us in the least! I work full time and so does my partner Alex, however we both get an hour lunch and are willing to both work around schedules to fit where needed! Both of us do live very close to home so if needed we can always stop by the house and check in. My pets are my family so yours would become my family as well! Both cats and dogs need someone that is going to be willing to play with them daily! I have multiple kennels of different sizes if a pet needs one/is comfortable with one. If not I also have a room dedicated to keeping pets comfy while I am gone during the day. It’s always helpful to have a space where pets can decompress when they are in an unknown location.

Cam was amazing per usual. My cat Rory had made quite the mess knocking things down one of the days and Cam went out of her way to clean it up for me and to keep Rory safe. She’s the best

Sofia did a great job taking care of my dog for a few days! She was very responsive and friendly. She sent lots of pictures of them playing, which always makes me feel better. She even brought Moose extra toys and sat with him to make sure he finished his dinner. I trust her with my pup and would book again!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rushtown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Rushtown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 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 224 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rushtown. 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 Rushtown. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
