About: I’ve always grown up around all different types of animals from dogs and cats to snakes and fish so I have had lots of practice. I have had many family members, family friends and friends of my own ask for help and I’m always so happy to do so!! I am currently taking an online class for college so I am available almost any time and any day. I cannot do Saturday’s because I live with a toddler so I stay home and visit with family on the weekend, but other than that I am free, so why not spend it with cuties!? I always keep up with the animals that are in my care I always make sure I’m paying attention to what they eat, how much they are eating, making sure they have water at all times, I make sure to take them on at least 2-3 walks a day depending on how long they are in my care! I also make sure to provide them some fun and playtime so they are not alone all day or in a kennel cooped up all day either.
About: I would love the opportunity to take care of your furry family members! I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. My daughter started caring for neighborhood pets several years ago, and when she left for the Navy, I happily continued helping many of the same families. Pet care has become something I truly enjoy. We currently have one friendly male dogs of our own medium sized. Our home has a large, dog-friendly backyard that’s almost like a private dog park, with plenty of space for running and playing. Neighborhood dogs often come over for playdates, and it’s a very friendly and welcoming environment.
“Nikki was great. She was very mindful of our pets. Provided wonderful photos while we were out. And corresponded on any concerns she saw arise with our pets. It will give me great peace of mind going forward to work with Nikki again to take care of our pets while we were out of town. She definitely goes above and beyond.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Big, small, young, old, special needs or playing never ending fetch, I love all dogs and they always have a special place in my heart.

I’m happy to take walks, play, swim or just hang out with your dogs. Each dog is different and making sure that you’re present and ready for whatever is the key to making sure our dogs have the best care. That definitely extends to the way I care for my friends’ and clients’ animals. I know how to work with animals that need more patience and/or care, plus my focus is to make sure that your dog is relaxed instead of stressed when you come home.

Jordan is so genuine in her care for our babies and goes above and beyond to not just manage them, but to play and connect with them. She learns their respective personalities and quirks and really finds a way to make them feel loved. She communicates great and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!
Jeannie was absolutely incredible! She took such great care of our sweet Creasy and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She had great communication, was attentive & caring, and kept us updated throughout our time away. We could tell Creasy was happy and well cared for when we got back. We’re so thankful we found Jeannie! We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!
I highly recommend Shelby, our dog was very happy in her care! She took care of Togo while we were traveling, and after every visit she gave us a detailed update and photos of our sweet boy. She gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Thanks for everything Shelby!
Caitlin was amazing with our lily girl! Super communicative and knowledgeable. Our babygirl was having a bit of tummy issues when we left on vacation and Caitlin helped us with recommendations and meds and kept us updated with everything while away! Because of her we were able to enjoy our vacation worry free! Will definitely be using her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Shenandoah is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $21 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 4,779 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Shenandoah. 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 Shenandoah 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 Shenandoah with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
