About: I've had dogs my entire life and have been actively involved in caring for them from a young age. Through owning dogs and helping with their daily care, I've gained experience with feeding, walking, exercise, playtime, and providing lots of attention and affection. I've also pet sat for friends and family, including caring for up to five dogs at once over a weekend. This experience has allowed me to work with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment so both pets and their owners feel comfortable and confident in my care. I have open availability Monday - Friday and can provide care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and overnight stays if needed. Im flexible and happy to work with pet owners to meet their pets' schedules and routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel comfortable and confident that your furry baby is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

“Samantha was great! She took very good care of our two cats! We had to book her last minute and she responded immediately, did everything we needed for our cats and was a great communicator. Will book again! She even got our very shy/moody cat to let her pet her which is not an easy task!”

“Cindy is an excellent sitter! She followed all of the directions I left for her and communicated with me after each visit to my house. I was really looking for a sitter that would not only be reliable, but that also cared about the wellbeing of my pet. Cindy is this type of sitter! I could tell from her reports that she really took the time to make sure that all of my cat's needs were met - from feeding, to petting, to cleaning his litterbox. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up on a farm with 5 dogs. When I moved to the US, I got my own puppy (a golden retriever), and I trained her myself. I foster dogs and cats from nearby shelters. I always make sure to follow instructions for a seamless transition for your animal! I have a dog myself. When my family and I got her, I signed a contract to take care of her myself. She is now almost 8 years old, always full of joy and in great health. I love to play with dogs, and get them tired and ready to take a nap! I am ready to clean after dogs if needed (in the house and outside), and take care of them no matter their needs. I want you and your pet to feel taken care of.
About: I have had a love and natural talent for dogs/cats both stray and or domestic since I was a little girl. I have no fear of any breed as I have had several dogs of my own that were of a more “aggressive” and or bigger breed. I am currently working from home so my schedule is very flexible so whether you are looking for someone to stay the night or do drop ins, I’d be a perfect match. I am very active so even when sitting for one pet I can keep them entertained if needed. I have trained dogs outside of my own so I do understand how to gain rapport and respect while also maintaining patience.
About: I have been in the vet field for 12 years and a registered Veterinarian Technician for 6 of those. I have a special place in my heart for senior and special needs pets. I currently have 5 dogs that are all older and been taken in when their owners could no longer care for them. Me and my family will treat your fur baby as our own. Truly a home away from home. I am currently only working 2 days a week so my schedule if very flexible. Other than those 2 days I am a stay at home mom. I have a fenced in yard and other dogs to keep yours company. My dogs are older, so not hyper and usually calm, unless it’s time for dinner :) I have 2 levels to my home so we can rotate dogs as needed for individual play time or cuddles. We also have the available set up and space to keep your dog separate if they prefer to be away from children. If your dog prefers be the only dog or need some alone/down time, we can make that happen too.
“Lindsay is amazing. She took great care of my 7 week tiny puppy. She even suggested to break up visits since she was so small. My Lexi had bad separation anxiety. She would get sick. She suggested a stuffie pup and it worked great! She even washed some dishes! She instantly made me feel comfortable leaving my little Lexi ❤️”
“We’re so glad we found Morgann! She went above and beyond to take care of our baby. We could tell our dog was happy to be visited by her. She’s now our go to whenever our baby needs company when we’re gone!”
“It means so much to a pet parent to know that their animals are well cared for when we are out of the house. Daysi provided great care for our cats when we had to be away for a night. She was attentive and allowed them to warm up to her. Daysi went above and beyond to ensure our routine was followed and sent messages to us along the way. She is conscientious, friendly and easy going. Thank you, Daysi!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and truly believe pets deserve the same love, patience, and attention we give our own family. I have experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also very attentive to changes in a pet’s behavior or appearance and will always communicate with you if something seems off. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I’m currently in nursing school, so my schedule varies depending on my classes and clinicals. I’m organized and plan ahead to make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I treat every pet like they are my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I follow each pet parent’s instructions and routines closely, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and playtime. I’m very observant and will communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sedalia is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 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 1,894 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sedalia. 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 Sedalia. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
