“Debra has watched my cats multiple times now, including when my oldest one was sick; she took good care of him until I could get back home. She's very attentive and puts their needs first, I have peace of mind leaving knowing that she will take care of them.”
“Clara was amazing with my two fur babies. I left detailed instructions which she followed exactly but she also went above and beyond in making sure they were good. She even fed some outdoor strays! I recommend her highly but with some hesitation because I’m afraid once everyone finds out what an awesome sitter she is then she’ll be booked solid! I never thought I would find someone as caring and capable as my last pet sitter when she moved away but I can’t wait to book Clara again because she was just that.”
“Dominic was Great!! He spent time with my pups and didn't mind the jump in the pool to cool off! Water and Treats were enjoyed by the dogs and timely too!! Thanks for your patience with my dogs!🐶💚🐶”
“Dianne to great care of my fur babies! She sent pics & videos daily. She kept me updated on how they were doing & I knew my babies were in good hands. I will definitely use Dianne again! Thank you so much!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. As a child we always had dogs and as an adult I have always owned a dog. I pet sit friend's and family's dogs. I have always been successful with house training and training dogs to stay off of furniture etc. Living with and loving dogs, I find, is the best kind of therapy. They offer and deserve unconditional love. For me, dogs are family members!🐕🦺🦮🐕🐶❣ I do not work and I live alone so my schedule is completely up to me. I am very flexible and accommodating. I will work with your needs. I am mature so I know the importance of taking on the responsibility of your home as well as your fur babies. I am very clean too. You will find your home as clean or cleaner than you left it. I can also water plants and retrieve mail. Let me ease your worries while you are away from home. I do not work so my day is very flexible, your pup's schedule will become my schedule! I am free to follow whatever routine you have in place for your dog. I will care for your pets in your home exactly as you do. I request a list of routines and special instructions to make it easier on us both.
“This is our 3rd time using Kristen and Jeff, we’re so grateful for their extra care when taking care of our GSD. We always get thorough updates with pics. We feel comforted when we’re traveling because we know Kristen/Jeff are reliable and thorough. Highly recommend their service! Thanks again for such quality care of Schutz! He was happy as can be when we got home.”
“Morgan was amazing with our dog Milton! We booked her for drop in visits while we were out of town and it was great having her stop by and play and walk our dog! We highly recommend and would definitely book her again!”
“MaryHelen is absolutely WONDERFUL! We are so thankful to have found a new forever sitter for Nugget. I was very pleased to find out that she has a cat of her own with the same urinary issue as Nugget. If your cat has FIC, you’ll know exactly how hard it can be to find someone who can understand how confusing this condition can be.”
“Abby did an excellent job caring for my babies! She was responsive, followed directions, and took some of the cutest pictures of them. It gave me peace of mind knowing I could count on her.”
About: I grew up with dogs at home and have done dog sitting previously. I’m patient, attentive and caring. I will treat your dogs like my own! I’m transitioning jobs at the moment and have a lot of free time to take care of pets. I like to go on walks so I can bring them with me if that works for them as well. I have a spacious yard for dogs to play around and I have space for a crate inside the house if needed. I currently have no pets myself.
“I would highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for reliable and caring help. She did drop-in visits for my cats while I was away, and from the start, she was incredibly professional and communicative. What I appreciated most was how she kept me consistently updated. She always let me know ahead of time when she would be arriving, which gave me great peace of mind. During each visit, she sent photos, and it was so reassuring to see them well cared for, and comfortable in her presence.”
About: I've had anything from sugar gliders to dogs for 4yrs that I've maintained care for and am looking to expand my experience in more pets I work full-time Monday through Friday, so I'm free after 6 and before 8am on weekdays. My schedule is wide open on weekends until the evening. With years of experience with different pet personalities I cater to them and their needs I give them patience and intend to build close bonds
About: I’ve worked at dog daycares for almost 2 years. As well as done dog bathing at a grooming salon for 6 months. I have 2 small dogs of my own both almost 7 years old! I also just really enjoy taking care of animals, it’s my passion. I’m free any day and time! Just shoot me a message and i’ll reply as soon as I can. Also very flexible with your schedule. Because of ny experience with dog behaviour I can catch any signs of stress, aggression, excitement, ect. I act accordingly and do my best to make the best day ever for your pet.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shenandoah
Debra is amazing with my cat. I fully trust her when I’m out of town. My cat has medical issues and Debra is well versed in how to care for my cat. Debra leaves the cutest photos and a detailed description of what they did during each visit. I highly recommend her for any pet.
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!
Maria is absolutely INCREDIBLE!! I have never used a sitter before, so I was super nervous to leave my kitties with someone. It was a huge help that she accepted my same-day booking. She sent several updates throughout her drop ins, including both photos and videos. Maria even picked up/put away their toys and vacuumed my floors from the litter that got tracked. With her taking care of them, I wasn’t worried about my babies one bit!
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!
Morgan has taken care of my cats for the third time now, and I couldn’t be happier! She’s always reliable, caring, and great with both of them. Her daughter is also so respectful of animals and loves playing with my cats, which is so sweet. I always feel comfortable knowing they’re in such good hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Shenandoah is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 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 October 2026, there are 4,907 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 .
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 , 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 Shenandoah. On Rover:
- 89% 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
