“Kennedy is the best! She always writes the cutest little updates about what they did during the drop in which makes my work day. If you’re looking for someone to take your pup out while you work I would highly recommend”

About: I am a caring, enthusiastic animal lover with experience pet sitting for family and friends, as well as working part-time at an overnight dog kennel. Dogs and cats hold a special place in my heart and are much more than companions—they are family. I am dedicated to providing loving, reliable care and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care. I have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or last-minute assistance, I am happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. When caring for pets in their own environment, I follow their established routines, provide constant attention, and ensure they feel secure and comfortable while you're away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, maintaining a safe, clean, and stress-free environment. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving reliable, compassionate care in the place they know and love most. 🐾❤️
About: I have been a dog mom my whole life! I grew up on an animal rescue farm while also volunteering at an animal shelter. I then worked at a dog boarding facility (Pet Paradise) in college so I have endless experience caring for all kinds of pets and farm animals. I am a mom to a 17 year old American Bulldog, 11 year old Corgi, 3 year old tripawd pup and a 21 year old tarantula. I work from home full-time M-F 9-5 with minimal an flexible meetings (also my husband is home by 2pm each day). This means I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and keep them happy while you enjoy your time away! I have more than a 1/4 acre of privacy fenced yard with trees and squirrels to chase. I also have 3 sweet dogs to make you pup(s) comfortable when they are staying with me.
About: I have been caring for a variety of animals for over 30 years. I have owned several breeds of dog, to include Doodles, Labs, and Dobermans. I owned/operated a small hobby farm where I had chickens, rabbits, and bees. I currently have a German Sheppard and a cat. I love animals of all sorts and would love to help you care for yours! I have a very flexible schedule and am able to be with your pet for most of the day. I tailor my schedule to your needs as a pet owner. I have a large yard for your pets to explore and we go on nightly walks to burn off that energy. I have a dedicated dog room and crates for those that are crate trained.
“Kaylee did an amazing job with my fur baby, Nugget. She communicated well, arrived within the requested time, and fed/played with Nugget. If I need another sitter in the future, I would absolutely rebook with her!”
“Eboni had been wonderful! I've been working with her for several months. I employed her help in the beginning to train my dog, which she was eager to do, because he was very reactive but now he is very comfortable with her. She is kind, professional, punctual, and is a proactive communicator. I happily look forward to continue working with Eboni. She's been great!”
“Alyssa was a life saver!!!! Alyssa was so kind and the most consistently communicative person I have ever met! I literally felt the whole time like I was right there with my dog! She communicated better than anyone I’ve ever met truly she is amazing. I was never worried the whole time she was watching my baby! Her bio is so accurate she will truly be your dogs best friend !! Coming from someone who has a slightly reactive dog who doesn’t love everyone she meets, my dog was IN LOVE with Alyssa. She loved her from the moment she met her. I was so incredibly impressed by not only her communication skills but her ability to connect with my dog and make me feel still at home with her. I couldn’t recommend her more and can promise that I will be having her over again!!! Book Alyssa for your next get away you will not regret it. She is a 1000/10 all around.”
“Raymond was very punctual, professional, and took great care of our pup? He made sure to send pictures each visit and kept in touch. I'd give 10 stars if I could! We'll definitely be reaching out in the future.”
“Day was outstanding. She wonderful with my animals, communication was excellent, professional, and accommodating. My cats were happy and I could tell very well cared for. She went above and beyond when I had a small emergency. I would definitely book Day again - as long as she is available! Thank you, Day!!”
“Amy did a fantastic job with my dogs and fish! I never worried about them at all and got multiple pictures. The dogs looked happy and worn out every time. I will definitely rebook Amy!”
“I am not very good about leaving reviews, but Josie B was probably the best caregiver we have ever had. After meeting with her in person, I immediately relaxed and knew our pets would be taken care of....when we left the next day, I was not visualizing all the bad things that could go wrong with our 4 legged babies, like I always do when we leave them. She sent us the report cards and many pictures. She was not nervous at all about giving our newly diagnosed cat the insulin injections she now needs with both meals. When we decided to come home early, she immediately adjusted the schedule and came by to check on them one last time. When we got home, they were not really that happy to see us at first. I think they were hoping she was coming by again. LOL. My dog and cat were well taken care of...We had decided to try and board them this time with a boarding kennel, but they cancelled because they said they needed to have an overnight vet to monitor our cat. I am so glad they did because it led us to Josie. I will NEVER ever use anyone else again.”
About: Lifelong dog owner • Australian Shepherd mom at heart • Big believer in adventure and enrichment. Beach runs, open fields, and lots of love included. As a Navy sailor, I know how difficult time away from your dog can be. My goal is to make sure your pup lives a full life even when you’re away. I am currently working a full-time job, and my schedule changes every week so availability changes and varies. If you need someone to take your dog on a walk right before you get home from work, or you are going on a weekend trip, I’m more then happy to take care of your fur baby!! As of right now, I am offering dog walking service, and also day visits. I will respect your home, and your animals. I want to offer the best experience I can while checking in to see your pup or getting their energy out from taking them on a nice walk to get out of the home!
About: I’ve had family pets since I was six including dogs, cats, and a parrot. My very first job was working at a vet clinic where I worked for five years. I love animals and right now have one sweet senior dog named Ginger. I’d love to interact with other animals when care is needed. I work Monday to Friday during day time hours so am available in the mornings before 8 and after 5pm and any time on weekends. I have a large fenced yard with one area sectioned off. I love being outside in the yard letting my dog roam around. Since she’s older she doesn’t do well on long walks but I love going for walks with dog friends.
“Donald was an excellent care provider for my dog. He was always on time always sent great pictures. Handled my dogs health issues with ease and confidence. My dog even started to like him”
“Zoi saved the day. I had my first day of nursing school orientation and couldn’t find anyone able to check on my new pup while I was away and she came to my rescue by taking my last minute request. She was so adoring with Josie and gave me all the confidence that my baby was in capable and loving hands. She is the kindest soul, an excellent communicator, and went above and beyond what I had asked. She has made a returning client out of me!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Saint Marys on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,704 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Saint Marys. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saint Marys stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Saint Marys. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
