“100/10 stars! Kyle was absolutely amazing for our crew! We booked with him last minute & around Christmas time! With 3 dogs, we were slightly worried if he'd be able to handle it, but he handled everything seamlessly & with grace! The dogs instantly were instantly comfortable around him too, and our cat, who is VERY shy, even came out of hiding too! Kyle went ABOVE & BEYOND what we asked & we couldn't have felt more comfortable! He is very knowledgeable & super trust worthy! We will not be using any other sitter ever again! Praying he keeps us! Haha 😊”
About: I’ve had and taken care of many different breeds and sizes over my life time of dogs as well as special needs and cats too! I typically wake up around 7-8. Go to the gym sometime within the day but other than that I’m free to watch your babies and take good care of them. I have a really friendly dog who is no more than 20 pounds and a fenced in yard if I watch them at my house. If at someone else house I have plenty of experience with that too and can do all that will be asked.
About: I have worked at a vet clinic for the past 7 summers. I have experience with all types of pets especially dogs and cats in a medical and home setting. I have three dogs of my own. I have a very flexible schedule during the summer as I am a college student who works remotely. During the school year I am available but not as frequently. I go to school in Georgia so am available to dog sit in that area from August through May. I am back in Virginia during the summer so my location can vary based on the time of year. I love to spend quality time with your fur babies. If they enjoy cuddles I am your girl. I will take them on walks, play fetch, or simply be someone to keep them company.
“We hired Ali to take care of our four legged son, our standard Poodle Leo. She responded promptly when we reached out to her. The minute she met Leo, he fell in love with her. She has a kind and tender demeanor with dogs. Ali is very nice to talk and easy going. She is responsible and flexible, trying to accommodate the needs of her customers. Every day she came to our house, she provided us with a detailed report of Leo’s activities along with a cute photo. We appreciate that. Ali was always on time. We felt so at peace during our weekend get away knowing that Leo was being taken care by someone caring and responsible. Ali met all of our expectations. We will hire her again and we definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting services.”
About: My name is Janet! I’m a student at Berry College! I took care of a lot of pets from people at my church when I was younger and and right now I have a little 2yr old dog of my own who I adore so much🤍 I’ve mainly taken care of small dogs but I’ve been around helping take care of medium and a few large dogs! I love animals so much and I hope to be able to give them the best care! I’m a student at Berry college, and I’m not able to have the time to work a part time job or 8 hour shift, if I think something like this can help me earn more money as well as it’s me being around animals, which I love. It can also help give me some time to destress away from college and be around the most adorable pets!! I have been around many pets, mainly dogs but right now is the first time I have a dog, and she is friendly with pets outside of home but I don’t know how she will react to animals coming into her ‘area’ so I would prefer to care at a clients house! Of course, I will follow the rules that the owner sets, whether it’s how many times the pet needs to be fed, its limit on treats, when and where they potty, what time they go on walks, play/nap time, etc, I’ll take care of them as if they were my own <3
About: Extensive experience with large and small dogs, cats, and farm animals have equipped me to handle simple and complex issues. Whether it’s health or aged related, I can compassionately care for their needs. I am currently working part time early in the morning and mid afternoon. I am available Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 1 PM and from 5 PM to 8 PM. Saturdays are from 7 AM to 5 PM. Walking, feeding, watering, administering meds, and play time with your furry friend brings me much joy. Trusted care and competence are crucial to your pet’s needs. Leave instructions and I’ll be sure to follow them.
About: I’ve had a few cats in my life and love them I’ve boarded 4 cats of my friends for a few months I’m very patient with older cats as well. We have a miniature dachshund that’s older but still active. I have a dog of my own that’s very hyper which means that I’m always taking her outside or to get her nails trimmed and get her bathed We live on a road with our family and there’s a big yard for her to run around in as well as my in laws dog
About: I am a huge animal lover I personally have a lot of experience with different types of animals. For example dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, guineas, pigs, cows, goats and a tortoise. I’m always looking to learn and grow my animal knowledge. I will always try my best to provide amazing care and love to your animals, I am a hairstylist and my schedule depends on the week. But my schedule is usually pretty accommodating to any pets needs. I don’t tend to work late hours. I will love and care for your animals like they are my own. I will play with them, feed them, water them and respect them. I would rather watch your animals in your home because of my animals.
About: At the age of 10 I got my first dog. Ever since then I knew that was what I wanted to do with my life. I knew I needed to be the voice for all animals. To me every animal is deserving of love and I can promise you I will treat every one of your fur babies as if they are my own. I currently work as a veterinary assistant while I am working to get my degree as a veterinary technician. i’ve worked at many clinics, boarding, daycare and grooming facilities I am very educated on the means of animal care & behavior. I guarantee your pets are in good hands! I have one friendly dog to keep your pups company & plenty of space for your babies to enjoy! I have extra crates if anyone needed a break or if i’m leaving the apartment. So you wont have to worry about anyone being unsupervised. as well as enrichment toys & treats.
“Ana took such great care of my fur babies! She was very attentive, thoughtful, and truly went above and beyond. She also helped correct some of their leash behaviors, which I really appreciate. She kept me updated during each visit and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I would absolutely book her again!”

About: I have always been an animal lover, and I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone with your babies. I solemnly swear I'll provide the best care! I WFH Tu-Fri and it is a pretty laid-back job so I can always give as much attention as needed. I also have experience in having pets to take care of as a part of my daily routine. I make sure they are comfortable, feel safe, and feel cared for to ensure they are relaxed because nothing is more unpredictable than a stressed dog!
About: I used to work at Petsmart now I have a at home job that is very flexible but I miss having dogs around! I am available around your schedule because I live alone. Dogs are like humans, with legs lol I understand them and they always tend to come to me with out me speaking, its like a spiritual connection we have with out words. I will communicate with standard commands and use treats (if allowed) to gain trust & help them feel comfortable while mommy/daddy are away or on vacation. I live in a town home with a big back yard also a dog park! So they will get plenty of outside play time and explore the new scenery. Any other questions please feel free to call me anytime on my cell, I look forward to caring for your pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Shannon is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 454 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shannon. 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 Shannon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
