“Jeanette is fantastic! She is kind and loving to Bo, very punctual and an all-around amazing human. I did not worry one bit about giving her access to my home to check on him. She is very trust-worthy. She will continue to be my and Bo's person for check-in visits when I'm away. I highly recommend her.”

About: I've been caring for dogs, cats and all types of farm animals for over a decade now. I really enjoy helping animals feel safe in whatever way I can and providing a sense of comfortability. From sweet cuddle bugs to reserved loners to senior geezers, all are welcome in my book. Whatever type of tail I'll love them regardless. I have little gremlins of my own, but that doesn't mean I'll prioritize yours any less. I can work in these timeliness almost always. This will change soon and I will adjust when it does :) Mondays: 12:15-3:40pm 10:30pm-8am Tuesdays: 12:15-2:30pm 7pm-8am Wednesdays: 12:15-3:40 10:30pm-8am Thursdays: 12:15-2:30pm 6:15pm-8am Fridays: 2:30pm through the night Saturdays: 9am-1pm Sundays: ask and I can let you know. If it's more than two weeks in advanced I can likely adjust my schedule. I am always respectful of boundaries both that you have and that your pet has. I like to spend extra time on walks or sitting with my clients fur babies to make sure they are comfortable and having a fun time with me. If they seem unsure I dont push them, I give them a little space. For eating I always assure if there's more than one animal they eat apart from each other to ensure no one gets too possessive over their food. Safe, comfortable, and fun are all important when thinking of your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was the age of six and I have a great way and love with them . My schedule varies weekly as I have a college retention student job and I get off pretty late but I’m very flexible. I can always work around getting your pet taken care of! I care for them with love and with their necessities as needed on a daily bases whether it’s taking them out for a walk twice a day or feeding them twice a day as well or any extra care like giving them their meds as needed as well.

“Kyleigh C. Has a caring kind personality. She's was very loving and attentive to my furbaby cat. She showed up on time each day. Was ver Responsible. She played with him, she fed him, gave him treats, and she even locked up the house after her shift was done. I would recommend her and I will use her again for my furbaby sitting services.”

About: I believe you treat all animals like if they are your pet. I’m known to overly spoil my animals with love, funny voices, and care. I will keep you updated with pictures and videos and your pets are in exceptional care. I have an open schedule to cover their needs and care while I’m on duty and they become my family for the time they are with me. I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for over 15 years typically small and medium sized dogs. I do have experience with some larger breeds on basic essential needs and care. I went through a battle of IVDD with my French Bulldog who passed which took a role on how I view the time with animals in general. I have an open schedule and extremely accommodating to your needs. I can work around the necessary schedule. I work this full time and if I don’t have any sitting I also run deliveries. I have a safe and trusted environment. I have one dog who gets along with other dogs but he is hyper and wants to play and nap consistently. I have a cat who does her own thing so my house is relaxed. No little kids and just me and my partner which she works from home so there’s always someone at home.

About: I lived in a house with 4 dogs and I love them all. I walked them and took them on adventures. I believe dogs are a humans best friend! I currently work part time and want to get healthier. I figured while I try to get healthier it’s better to do it with a furry friend each day! I feed, bathe, and play with all of my doggos. I like to teach them new tricks. To us they are part of our lives but for them we are their life!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 8 years and truly treat every animal like my own. I currently have 5 cats, including a senior diabetic cat, so I’m experienced with specialized care, medication routines, and monitoring health needs. I also have a 1-year-old German Shepherd that I’ve raised since 6 weeks old, giving me hands-on experience with training, structure, and high-energy breeds. In addition, I have a background in veterinary science, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and providing attentive care for pets of all ages and temperaments. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe, loving hands. I have a full time management job with a set schedule. I’m available every Thursday, Sunday, and late afternoon/evenings every other day. Loving on my pets and other animals brings a little more joy into my days! I live in a community based neighborhood with a walking trail. I have a medium sized, energetic pup who would love to play and keep your babies company. We go on lots of trails and bike rides.

“Randi went above and beyond to make sure our animals were taken care of. She even voluntarily took home a chick that could not walk and fixed it's leg so it can get around on its own now. She also watered our plants and brought in mail while we were gone. She seems to know a lot about dogs and is a wealth of info on chickens, as well. Some of my chickens were not doing so well and thanks to her advice, they are looking healthier. I'd highly recommend her.”

About: I've had pets my entire life and have been given more responsibilities with age. I have a dog a cat, and a horse that all need special care from ear infection treatments to prescription drugs. My family and I have also cared for many stray cats and even fostered one's six kittens. I’m currently a college student on summer break and I’m available during many periods in the day. These time periods are perfect for me to give your furry family members a walk, pets, and food! I am super enthusiastic about getting outside and love to go on long walks with my dog. I can also pop in to feed your furry friend and give them attention when you're away.

About: I have over 4 years of pet-sitting experience, including caring for pets for the same family consistently throughout those years, as well as pet sitting for several other families! I also have two dogs of my own, an Australian Shepherd and a Dachshund, both of whom I’ve raised since they were puppies! I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs! Whether your dog is tiny or bigger than me, I’m comfortable and confident providing them with the love and attention they deserve. I also have experience with puppy training and helping younger dogs learn good habits! What sets me apart is how much I care about making both pets and their owners feel comfortable. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I do my best to keep things as normal as possible while you’re away. Whether that means daily walks, sticking to feeding schedules, playtime, or morning cuddles, I’m happy to do it all! I have a very flexible schedule and am dedicated to providing dependable, loving care. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are happy, safe, and being treated just like my own! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine! I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to making sure your furry friends receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life! I’m used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and of course, lots of cuddles! Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. My goal is to make pet care as stress-free and convenient as possible for both you and your pets! When caring for pets, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine, so I always do my best to follow their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to maintain their normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other special routines they may have. I know being away from their family can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I love giving them extra attention, reassurance, and cuddles whenever they want them! I also understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your pets. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide regular updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing your furry family members are doing well! Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, relaxing on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the personalized care they deserve. My goal is for your pets to feel just as happy and loved with me as they do when you’re home!

Alicia was great with Scrappy. He gave her the slip, no fault of hers. He’s a runner and takes any chance he gets to escape and a cracked door is all he needs. But she made me aware immediately and found him at another house in the neighborhood. She treats my dog as if he’s her own and gives him the attention and love he needs. I will continue to request her services when needed.

Kendra is an absolutely amazing dog sitter! She is reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. We always feel completely at ease knowing our pup is in her hands. She sends thoughtful updates, gives lots of love and attention, and treats our dog like her own. We couldn’t ask for better care — highly recommend Kendra to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Ryland Corner

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,627 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ryland Corner. 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 Ryland Corner. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.
