About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I absolutely love caring for them. I have not only cared for my own dogs but I have worked at a vet clinic where I got to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I have experience in feeding, giving medicine, sick care, etc. I am available to provide pet care Thursdays Fridays Saturdays and Sundays for most of the day! I am available to drop in and give walks or stay with them and give them some company! I can ensure that your fur baby is feed, happy, and entertained while I am with them! I can just drop in or I can give them company and have some play time!

About: Hey guys! My name is Lauranmarie. Short background on me.. I graduated from Mercy college with a Bachelors degree! I am looking to make some extra money doing something that i love, and i absolutely love animals! I am very outgoing and energetic! My whole life i’ve taken care of different types of animals and it brings a smile on my face! I have had dogs my whole life ranging in different sizes / breeds.. so i am pretty comfortable with all! Recently we had to put down my boxer “Deezul” and i was very upset losing him.. he was a part of our family for a long time and it was very hard to go through that process. We have two dogs at home named Milo and Koda..Milo is a King charles Cavalier, Koda is a boxer mix! They both usually get along with other dogs, Koda gets a little territorial, and may bark a lot, but once he is used to you and your dog there is never a problem! I hope you enjoyed a little bit about who i am and i hope to hear from you and your furry one soon(: Currently pet care is the only thing I am doing, so I will have plenty of time to watch you’re pet! They are in a great home at Laws Paws I have an unfenced yard, so walking them on a leash is necessary! However, I have a wrap around deck outside that is gated so the dogs can play outside on a nice day! I currently am doing this full-time… I have plenty of time to board your furry friend in the comfort of my home! They will be in good hands! I am home with the dogs all day long… Constantly playing with them taking them out for walks and updating owners with videos and pictures daily so you feel comfortable with them here while you’re away

About: I’ve had multiple pets throughout my life whom I loved and took care of well through all stages of their lives. I’ve worked with dogs on basic commands and cared for my dog that passed from years of cancer. Most of my care was toward my own pets, but I love all animals! I am currently home for the summer, and I have a pretty open schedule to walk, check in on, and pet sit! My schedule is very flexible to work with whatever time I’m needed. I have a fenced in yard with grass, as well as a pool in the backyard. I no longer have any pets of my own, but many toys!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a specific routine, or just providing tons of cuddles and playtime. I’m also active, so energetic pups will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time! I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company while I work, I love having pets around—it makes my day better! My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to their routine and be fully present for walks, feeding, and any special needs they might have. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy it. At my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play! I have a yard for fresh air and outdoor time, and I’m lucky to live near two parks—perfect for walks, exercise, and a little adventure. I keep a clean, calm environment and tailor the care to each pet’s needs, whether that’s sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, or providing lots of love and attention. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they’re with me.

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands-on experience dog sitting, along with a deep sense of responsibility and care. I truly love animals and bring that same energy to every pet I look after. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors who need gentle, attentive support. I also have experience caring for elderly people, including my own grandmother, which has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of routines. Whether it’s administering medication, giving extra cuddles, or sticking to a strict schedule, I’m all in when it comes to compassionate care. It fits into my daily and weekly schedule because I’m a stay at home dad with a lot of time on my schedule that would enjoy the company of a fur friend around that can keep me busy!! When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax, stick to their regular routine as much as possible, and give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep my space clean, safe, and calm so they can feel comfortable, whether they’re staying for a day or a whole week. My goal is to make it feel like a second home for them. Also when taking them out I have a fenced yard as well as a front gate so there’s no running away or escaping on my watch!

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my commitment to providing personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs. Along with providing updates and being prepared for an emergency situation. I am currently in college with a relatively flexible schedule as of right now. I have mid morning class that are no longer then 2-3 hours. I play softball but will schedule accordingly based on offers. I am able to abide to a routine the pet has and will prepare myself to ensure all the pets needs are meet. I will make sure the pets comfort hygiene and safety comes first!

About: As a lifelong animal lover with a calm, attentive nature, I treat every pet like my own—giving them personalized care, patience, and affection. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly build trust with both pets and their owners, creating a stress-free experience for everyone. Whether it's playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away I have open availability as I’m taking a gap semester off of college. Therefore pet care would take up a good amount of my daily routine. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect, just as I would my own. I make sure to follow any specific instructions given, keep spaces clean and organized, and maintain a quiet, calm environment for your pet

Extremely pleased with the service we received Leviena. It was our first time leaving our 10 month old puppy for more than a couple hours and we were very nervous! Leviena was amazing with our baby - from the original meet & greet she eased concerns & Zoe warmed up to her quickly. Our first experience using Leviena went great - she communicated with us throughout the day and sent many pictures - Zoe had a wonderful day! We will definitely be using Leviena again!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Seymour

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Seymour is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 November 2026, there are 2,941 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Seymour. 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Seymour choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Seymour with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Seymour. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
