“Amy B is the best !! She is so patience and kind with my dog Molly that has special needs. I felt so safe and comfortable when I went out of town . I would take Amy over ,over Thank You Amy !!!”
“Amy is such a life saver. I cannot express my gratitude enough for her. Knowing that my 17 year old was well cared for while we were traveling thousands of miles away is priceless. 100% recommend Amy for dog walker, dog sitter or just for a drop in.”
“Rylie was amazing. Took great care of our cats and went above and beyond multiple times. Even got our super shy car to come out and hang. Which has never happened before with a rover . Can tell she really cares about the animals she works with and will 100% book again if they’re available for our next trip.”
“Hannah was a great sitter for my 2 cats while I was out of town. They both liked her right away, and she sent me many cute pictures of them looking happy and safe. Hannah was always communicative, responsible, and very pleasant to work with. I will definitely ask her to watch my cats for me again and would recommend her to others as well!”
“So happy to have found Lizzie to take care of my spoiled kitty. Communication was great while we were gone and my cat was perfectly happy when we got home. She is now my #1 go to cat sitter!”
“Renee was wonderful! She clearly has a passion for taking care of pets and took time to really get to know our Nova so she could provide the best possible care. We received regular updates, detailed notes, and the sweetest photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Not only was our cat happy and relaxed when we returned, but everything in our home was spotless and just as we left it. Highly recommend Renee!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life: dogs, cats, lizards, fish, etc. Sadly, I found out as an adult that I am allergic to cats. It just means I get to love on dogs even more! I am a suburban single gal who works full time and is looking for a joyful way to spend my off hours! I’m hoping taking care of your loved one(s) brings us both the comfort and peace it can! I am more than happy to care for your animals in their own home to make sure it is an easy process for all. I can provide feedings and walks/exercise and of course, a lot of love! Happy to stay at your house overnight as well.
“Kat was fantastic with my cat, forest. She was caring, kind, and communicative. I felt confident the entire time that forest would be well taken care of. I will go back to Kat in the future! Thank you!”
“There aren’t enough stars to describe how wonderful Stacy is. She has taken amazing care of my dogs and cats. I always recommend anyone to her. She is so kind and takes the best photos. We are going to miss her now that we are moving states.”
“Whitney is incredible! She dropped in to walk our two dogs twice a day while we were out of town. She was very thorough with her check ins and I felt great leaving them in her hands. Would highly recommend Whitney!”
“Elizabeth did an amazing job with our cat! My message with instructions on getting into our home and care info didn't go through on the Rover app but Elizabeth was a great communicator and made sure she got in contact with me so she could take care of Pax. Really appreciated her diligence and Pax seemed very happy when we got home. Would definitely book again!”
“Michelle is the absolute best! My husband and I have rebooked her several times now, and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with our cats. Our cats are very particular, and Michelle is fantastic with them. She is clearly amazing with animals and knows how to make them comfortable, but she's also excellent at making sure that everything is done correctly for them. We've used her services during both short trips and also really long vacations and I always feel so reassured knowing our cats are in such excellent hands.”
“Incredible sitter! She always takes such good care of our cats, going above and beyond to spoil them, clean them up, and keep them happy while we’re away. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Sterling has a wonderful way with animals. I was worried our anxious, shy kitty wouldn’t come out for food, but Sterling charmed all my cats. They love her. And she managed to give my boy cat all his meds for a urininary upset. Gosh, she took on so much and I’m so pleased! Can’t wait for her to come back again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sherwood
Amy agreed to watch our two pups, Liska and Miles, on relatively short notice. She was excellent! Her daily photos and feedback, and care of our pups was amazing. We will certainly reach out to her again the next time we're out of town. Highly recommend! And thank you!
Katie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in for last-minute drop-in visits during the holidays, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She took great care of my two dogs, Finn and Forest, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about them. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and flexible dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sherwood on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 6,809 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sherwood. 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 Sherwood 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 Sherwood. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
