Debbie was fantastic! She was very responsive to messages, left us good notes & photos of each visit, and made sure to ask any questions she needed when she met the cats to make sure they were well cared for. We'll be sure to ise Debbie again if we need a sitter 😊

Mackenzie was so amazing! She stayed right on schedule and made sure to communicate with me each day and even helped me recognize that i incorrectly scheduled her assistance plan and got it all squared away for me. Will definitely be requesting her services again!

Emily did a drop-in visit with our two big dogs to let them out and give them some attention. She did everything we needed her to do and the dogs got plenty of love. We will definitely use her again soon.

Stephanie was so helpful and kind with our two dogs! This was a first time using Rover and Stephanie exceeded all needs and eased our worry. With a senior dog who needs extra care and a younger dog who has much more energy, she was able to accommodate both of our boys to keep them happy and safe!

Lindsey was overall amazing. This was our first time using Rover and Lindsey made us feel so comfortable and confident. She went above and beyond, scheduled a meet-up, asked great questions, and fully delivered on care. We have a cat that has diabetes and I knew Lindsey would take great care in administering his insulin. I’m so glad we booked her!

About: I’ve been caring for pets most of my life, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats who need a little extra love and patience. Over the years, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to connect with each one to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or providing calm companionship, I adjust to what makes your furry friend happiest. Safety, reliability, and compassion are always at the heart of the way I care for animals. I’m currently not working so I do have open availability. I do volunteering 2 times a month on Saturday’s so I would be available for a bit before or any time after. While I am currently not offering in home services at my home, I am comfortable providing services at your home. I will follow your instructions given!

About: I grew up with dogs and all of my kids have dogs, so not only am I a grandpa, I was a dog grandpa first! I also sit and love cats. They always find me. Had four dogs in my house for many times watching when my kids traveled, but now they moved so I have more time to get my fur feed. I take walks and would love to walk your pups but also can follow your guidelines doing the best to keep their routine. I work from home but occasionally have appointments outside of the home, so I am very available to work with your schedule. I will share my schedule with you when booking. I have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walking. Friendly home environment with access to fresh food/water and sunshine. Your dog/cat will be well-loved.

We definitely picked the perfect sitter for our pups. Michelle was amazing, not only did she do exactly what she said she said she would do during the meet and greet...its our opinion that she went above and beyond what we feel a dog sitter would normally do. Each visit report was detailed with what she saw and did. Super happy with everything and only hope to have Michelle back out when we decide to travel again!

About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have two boxers and a morkie (Maltese Yorkie mix). I used to work part-time at a vet clinic so I have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs and cats. I currently work part time at a doggy daycare. I currently have a lot of free time so although I have dogs of my own I will have plenty of time and energy to care for your fur babies! I have plenty of experience with walking (and playing with) dogs of all sizes. I also have experience giving dogs and cats medication such as pills, injections, or topical. I have also pet-sit cats a many times, just checking in every day or even staying with them so I can feed, water, and play with them.

Lindsey was so sweet and considerate, my fur baby had a great time! I could tell right away when they met my girl was so at ease with her and i’m sure they had a wonderful time playing together. She asked all the right questions and made sure she knew all the important details to ensure quality care. Furguson can be quite shy so it means a lot that she was so comfortable with her. It was great to know she was so well taken care of while i was away, i will definitely be booking with Lindsey again!!

Erin has been great. Both of my dogs like her and my cat who is normally skittish has stayed out when Erin has been over. I’ve had to reach out short notice a couple of times, and she has been able to accommodate. I’m very pleased and I would highly recommend her!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Shawnee

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Shawnee on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,966 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shawnee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Shawnee stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Shawnee. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
