“This is the first time I have used a pet sitting service for my older dog and cat. Trenton was amazing. He asked questions about things I had forgotten to mention. He was prompt on arrival times and the provided updates and pictures. I plan to use Trenton the next time I need a sitter.”

About: Hello! I’ve worked with all types of animals since I was very young (particularly dogs and cats) and I enjoy every moment of it! Currently, I find myself in the Animal Care field, so I have a deeper understanding of not only basic needs, but veterinary care and animal behavior as well. I’m a pet parent myself, so I understand what it’s like to have a furry one in the care of others and I won’t hesitate to communicate as needed. Thanks for reading! I work full time Tuesdays through Saturdays. I have opening shifts (7:30am-4:00pm) and closing shifts (9am-5:30pm) that alternate starting with closing shift on Tuesdays. I can do drop-in visits in the early mornings and evenings, and if necessary (and close enough driving distance) I can drop in during my lunch hour (1-2:00pm). I will follow all instructions for each of the pet’s needs and I’m VERY careful about avoiding pets potentially running out of the house, as I have 2 little escape artists myself. At the owner’s home, I can let dogs out on their fenced-in yard (if they have one) or I can put on their leash/harness to take them outside to go potty. I will carefully follow all feeding and care directions and communicate quickly if I need clarification on anything. For cats, I’ll make sure litter boxes are clean and fresh and make sure they have clean water as well. If owners are away for some time, I’ll always try to engage with pets in playtime because I believe enrichment and play are part of good mental health and welfare for the animals and it keeps them happy :)

About: Hi, I’m Halley! I’ve always been around dogs growing up and I also have my own. I have many years of experience taking care of dogs while family or friends have been out of town. I have been around small dogs and big dogs, so I am comfortable with any size. I’m always accepting new clients! As I do have a part time job, I’m usually only available on the weekends. If my schedule changes or I am available, I will always update my calendar. I currently live in a house but do not have a fence. I do have a patio that goes outside though. I will gladly send you pictures or video updates of your pup!

“Carissa was amazing while taking care of my cat, Chestnut, for a couple of weeks while I was away. She was incredibly responsible and provided thoughtful updates with lots of great pictures, which made it so much easier to be apart from my little cat. I’d absolutely recommend Carissa to anyone looking for a sitter :)”

About: Lifetime dog owner, very active. I love long walks on the beach. And so do my dogs! I currently have a 5 year old Lab/Great Dane mix and 3 year old Aussie mix. We walk and play daily. I am willing to travel for daily walks or overnight stays. All size dogs are welcome. Large dogs are no problem. I’ve got a great arm so I’m the perfect fetch partner. I update my availability weekly. Willing to send updates and pictures as requested! I have a seasonal job so when my calendar is open I’m available throughout the week and weekend. Early mornings or late nights don’t bother me! I try to view your pet as my own. I’m more than happy to double check instructions and preferences to make sure your pet is treated well!

About: Hi! My name is Ramona. I grew up in Clinton, Oklahoma, and my first job was on an alpaca farm while I was in high school, where I fed them three times a week. I graduated from Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma, in May 2025 with a bachelor’s degree in public relations and a minor in foreign languages. Feel free to ask me anything! I ran two half marathons in 2025: the Taylor Swift Fun Run and the Spooky Sprint in Lee’s Summit. I love going on long walks, and unfortunately, because of my lifestyle, I can’t have a dog right now. I’d love the opportunity to watch your fur baby’s though! I would be consistently responsible, highly respectful, and proactively communicative with your space. I truly appreciate very clear communication when it comes to understanding and meeting my clients’ preferences.

About: Previously, I was an Animal Control Officer for the City of Fort Worth for 2 years and switched to assisting in running the Animal Adoption Center for the City of Fort Worth for 2 1/2 years. I personally have had pets my entire life from horses, birds, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. I love all breeds of animals the fluffier the better! I am currently attending online classes part-time from home so your fur babies will never feel lonely. Since I am always home your little ones will receive tons of love and plenty of playtime. I have experience with administrating medications and basic vet care for both cats and dogs so you never have to worry about the well-being of your pet while with me! I have both large and small crates if crating is needed along with a fenced-in backyard.

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide range of animals, from beloved furry companions to fish and even large reptiles. My passion for animals began at a young age, inspired in part by countless hours watching Animal Planet, which helped spark my curiosity and deepen my understanding of animal behavior. Over the years, I’ve developed a natural ability to connect with animals, especially those that may feel anxious or unsure. I take pride in creating a calm, reassuring environment that helps pets feel safe and loved. For me, pet care isn’t just a responsibility. It’s a heartfelt commitment. After all, our pets are family, and I treat them as such. At this moment, I currently have no pets. But I am open and available to assist with others who do. I’m pretty flexible. My classwork is self paced. It’s all about what the client needs. Believe it or not but some animals do have allergies. So there are a lot of does and don’ts. Other than that, I assure any mess is cleaned up, pets are fed properly and on schedule, and bathroom breaks are given. And of course play time and walks if needed.

Katherine did a great job taking care of Zeus while I was away. She was very caring and sent pictures at every drop-in visit, which I really appreciated and gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. She was reliable, communicated well, and I could tell Zeus was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her.

I can’t speak more highly of Hillary. She is willing to meet the needs of our rather belligerent cat in a caring and compassionate way. She is prompt, meets our specific requests, and is always a pleasure to correspond with while we’re away.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Seaford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Seaford is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 1,936 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Seaford. 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 .

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 , 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 Seaford. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
