About: I can remember helping take care of my family's dog's as early as 5 years old. While my responsibilities back then we're obviously easier, I still learned the level of effort and compassion that it takes to raise dogs. I have a boxer mix named Boogie and he is the first that I raised on my own (shoutout to all the COVID pups!). As a puppy, he was a hyper little landshark that drove me crazy, but subtly taught me a lot about patience. Sticking through the puppy blues was tough, but because before I knew it, he became the best good boy that I knew he could be (and still is!). His puppy energy still comes out, especially around others playful dogs. So if yours is, then we both get tired pups at the end of the stay! I work from home and am fully remote. My daily work schedule 7:30 am to 6:30 pm M-Th., but I will always be able to keep an eye on the dogs. I am a homebody at heart, especially when there are dogs around! I have a fenced yard and I always supervise the dogs during potty breaks and playtime outside. I try to block off my personal schedule and hole up, especially for longer stays. I have an extra crate if your dog is crate-trained in case I need to step out of the house.
“Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.”
About: I am very patient and understanding with dogs and cats and always have a soft spot for animals. I have experience working with older dogs and medication they might need. I am working around a few different aspects such as college schooling, some social gatherings with friends, and overall business. Many weekends I am free and some weekdays I am also free. I do not own any pets but I did watch my friend’s family dogs for many years. I have had a dog and a cat in the past.
About: Experienced with all ages of dogs & cats. Pet owner & lover since childhood (currently no pets). Approximately 90 x 30 ft. fenced backyard. Freshly laundered sofa & bed covers for each stay. Your pet(s) comfort & happiness are very important to me! The maximum size dog I can care for is ~70 lbs (limited exceptions possible) & must be gentle (when owner is gone). I am usually free to focus on your pets. I do some contract work from home at times (& I am not usually available then). I usually walk 1-2 miles daily. I will text or email daily pictures/video clips. Available for Meet & Greets. I will care for your pet like it is my own. Your pet can go on walks with me. If your dog has a ball or frisbee, I can throw it to your dog in the backyard. Your pet can relax in my shaded & fenced backyard. I will care for your pet like it is my own. The sofa & bed covers are freshly laundered for each visit to make your dog more comfortable. Please let me know if your dog has incontinence issues or has caused any other damage (or any other potential issues). The maximum size dog I can care for is ~70 lbs (limited exceptions possible) & must be gentle(when owner is gone).
“First time Rover user, and I would recommend Kayla! She watched my dog Cleo while I went out of town and we had a great experience! Kayla first offered to do a little meet and greet ahead of our booking, which allowed Cleo to get to know her a bit beforehand and to build trust. She was attentive taking notes about Cleo’s care during our meet up and was great with communication leading up to & during the booked visits! Kayla was sure to leave detailed summaries about each visit and tooks lots of photos — even showing that her water bowls were filled before she left! Would absolutely rebook! :)”
“Lara did a fantastic job watching our cats. She was very responsive and communicated daily with updates and pictures. I would highly recommend her! We felt very comfortable with her and will definitely be using her again!!”
“Raven is the best! She is very professional, and went above and beyond my expectations when checking on my two cats. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter.”
“Jimmy was great. I needed someone last minute and he booked my request right away. He did a great job and I appreciate him taking care of Lana. I will definitely use Jimmy again and recommend him to anyone needing someone to look after their pet.”
“Monica is so good to my pups! They love her like she's a member of the fam and I can't express how much I appreciate the little extra things she does to care for them. Thank you for being awesome, Monica!”

Dominique was wonderful to work with and I will definitely use her services again. Great communication from beginning to end, on-time and thorough visits, and best and most important - very caring with my two cats. Cricket and Arlo loved Dominique and felt comfortable with her almost immediately.
Brenda was amazing. She was reliable, attentive, and took great care of everything during the drop-in visits. Communication was great, and I felt completely comfortable knowing everything was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again!
Jessi went above and beyond petsitting my two pups! She solved minor issues for me at my home while I was on vacation, followed all of the pup care instructions, and made sure my pups got plenty of love during the drop ins. She was incredibly communicative, keeping me in the loop and providing updates regularly. She didn't just drop in and wrap up with bare minimum, she truly cared about making sure they felt comfortable and giving them attention like they were her own pups. I will absolutely use her for any of my future pet care needs. Thank you so much Jessi! :-)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Shady Hollow is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 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 7,336 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shady Hollow. 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 Shady Hollow. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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.
