“Brianna was such a life saver. I know it can be overwhelming with my pit bulls but she handled everything so gracefully. One of my pups had an accident in her cage which is so unusual but Brianna went above and beyond to clean her and the cage out for me. I’m blessed to have had an amazing Rover helper. She is awesome! She adjusted to the pups so well. I’m sure they miss her already! Will definitely recommend her services!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the past 9 years for family and friends. I am very patient and love meeting different types of personalities in pets, from calm to high energy. I currently have 2 cats and one dog at home. I’m currently working part-time and am extremely flexible to meet your needs. I’m available early mornings through evenings if need be. Sunday is my least flexible day, but am willing to do my best to help! I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own. I am patient and work well with all types of dogs and cats as I get to know them better!
“This is our second time using Janette. She will continue to be our first choice when going out of town. It’s obvious that she cares for our dog and having her taking care of him affords us peace of mind while we are away.”
About: I worked as a kennel tech for a dog trainer for 2 years and have been volunteering with a dog rescue that saves abused and neglected dogs for the past 6 years. These experiences, as well as raising my own dogs, have given me the knowledge to work with most dogs, but my passion is working with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs. Working on their time to gain their trust is my specialty and passion. I have experience working through basic obedience, counter conditioning, confidence building, muzzle training, gear shyness, and cooperative care. I also have experience working with dogs that require more intensive care due to feeding routines (such as making homemade food or strict feeding schedules with medications) and grooming maintenance (frequent or routine baths due to coat type or skin conditions). Know that under my care, your pup will be with someone who understands them as an individual and can meet them where they are at. For Walks/Drop Ins: I have pretty varied availability throughout the day on weekdays due to my work schedule. For Housesitting: I typically need to be out of the house anywhere from 4-10 hrs depending on my shift at work. Your dog's comfort as well as yours are my top priorities, so I do require a meet and greet before any service I provide. This allows me to meet your pet and see their behavior before a service, and lets you see how your pet feels around me. I provide daily updates with pictures, with the ability to provide more frequent updates at your request. I also strictly follow any instructions and routines laid out for me regarding a pet's care.
About: I love animals of all kinds, from birds and cats to dogs, and care for them as if they were my own. I have a 6-year-old deaf white Boxer named Coco, who has taught me patience and how to understand pets with special needs. I also cared for my Shih Tzu named Chanel until she passed away peacefully at 15, and I had a beloved cat named Pequeño who has also passed away at 16. I’m reliable, gentle, attentive, and bilingual in Spanish and English . I’m especially patient with senior pets and those who need extra care. Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine. Every day, I make sure to feed my pet, provide fresh water, and spend time playing or walking with them. Every day I make sure their living area is clean and they have everything they need to stay happy and healthy. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every Pet. At home or in a client’s home, I make sure pets are supervised at all times, have access to fresh water, and are in secure areas where they cannot get hurt. I follow any specific instructions from the pet owner to ensure their routine and preferences are respected. My goal is create a calm, safe, and positive space so pets feel comfortable and care for.
“Excellent work, and reliable as always. My cautious cats are completely comfortable and look forward to Genn’s visits after only booking for the second time. Recommend highly!”
About: I have had dogs majority of my life. I have done basic command training, potty trained. Whatever your dog needs are I am open to assisting I currently have a full time job Monday- Friday, weekends off. I can do evening drop ins or weekends. Looking for something to do after work. I enjoy talking dogs on walks or cuddles I will monitor at all times when outside. I will treat your fur baby as if it was mine. I am able to fully engage with what your request are.

“Celeste was amazing helping me look after my new pup. She treated my home and pup with respect and care during her drop in and communicated with me and made me feel very comfortable. I definitely recommend her and will ask her to help again soon :)”
About: I will take great care of your fluffy! I have had years of experience with both house pets and farm animals! I’ve spent many years working on farms and have worked professionally as an in-home pet sitter for two years. I’ve had experience with elderly animals, puppies/kittens, special needs animals, and with administering medications. I am home full time, with plenty of availability to care for your fur babies! The backyard is fully fenced and there is a dog park close by! We have a spacious house that your pup is free to roam. The backyard is medium sized, safe and well enforced. We have a safe quiet neighborhood that is excellent for long walks, and the dog park is only three minutes down the road!
“Ben was absolutely fantastic. I have used him since this stay and am so happy to have found him. My dogs get so excited when he visits. He is the best!!!!”
“Kallie K is spectacular! She went above and beyond for my fur baby, River - especially during the recent thunderstorms. She understood that if River didn't like fireworks, she probably didn't like thunderstorms and proceeded to stay with River through some of the worst during her time. My fur baby is very people shy, but Kallie was able to break through her shell. Her frequent updates and pictures made me feel like she was part of the family now. I wish I could afford to just put her on retainer! I really giver her 10 stars!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat of my own! Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m new to the area and excited to meet other pet lovers in the community! In addition to caring for my own pets, I regularly pet sit for family members when they travel, so I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, happy, and on their usual routines while their people are away. I also have experience administering medications and caring for my dog with epilepsy, so I understand that some pets need a little extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I’m happy to work with you to understand your pet’s individual needs and make sure they receive thoughtful, reliable care. I’m open to all kinds of pet care, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting while you’re away! Whether your pet is an energetic pup who needs a good walk, a senior pet who needs a slower pace, or a shy kitty who just needs some company, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know firsthand that pets are family, and I would treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently a master’s student and work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m home with my own pets most of the day and typically don’t leave them alone for more than 2–4 hours at a time. Having a dog with epilepsy has also made me especially mindful of providing attentive, consistent care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and needs, whether that means daily walks, drop-in visits, daytime companionship, or caring for them while you’re away. I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved! In My Home: I have a fenced-in backyard and three friendly dogs who may be happy to have a new playmate! I’ll make sure any introductions are safe and appropriate for your pup’s personality and comfort level. Whether your dog loves playing with other dogs or prefers relaxing and getting one-on-one attention, I’ll do my best to accommodate their needs and keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. I want your pup to feel at home while you’re away! In Your Home: I’ll follow your instructions closely and stick to your pet’s usual routine as much as possible. Whether that means walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to provide the care your pets need. I know how important it is to trust someone in your home and with your furry family members, and I’ll treat both with respect and care!

Jasmine was awesome and I would definitely use her services for my outdoor cat again! She made sure to send me detailed updates every day along with pictures. She is very friendly, great with animals, and easy to talk to, I would recommend her to anyone who needs help caring for their pets!
5/5 Stars – Highly Recommended! Elizabeth did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my cat. From our very first interaction, it was clear that she is a true animal lover who treats pets with the utmost care and respect. She was incredibly reliable and followed all feeding and care instructions perfectly. What I appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My cat, who can sometimes be shy around new people, warmed up to her and enjoyed her attention. Elizabeth went above and beyond to make sure my cat felt safe, loved, and comfortable. I cannot thank Elizabeth enough for her exceptional service. I will absolutely be hiring her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!
Tara is an amazing sitter for our fur babies. She is very knowledgeable and comfortable with the dogs. The dogs loved her from the moment they met her. She was fantastic in making sure our older dog took her medicine. I really appreciate that she took the time to play with them during her visits. We loved getting updates and knew our pups were in great hands. I would highly recommend Tara if you want someone who will love your dogs as much as you do.
John is one of the most courteous and caring people I have met in awhile. Roxie loved him immediately and she is not always loving toward people. She loved his visits and was obviously in great spirits when we got home. I could watch them play in out backyard on our Ring camera. Thank you, John you are highly prized, and recommended for anyone in the Selma area.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Selma is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 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 3,246 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Selma. 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
