“Nicole was great! Communicative, shared lots of pictures from the check in, and even went the extra mile to keep an eye on and water started plants for our garden. We will definitely book again!”

About: Hi there! I have decades of animal care experience both personal and professional and look forward to providing your pet with stellar care, attention, and love (if they prefer). I take pet care seriously and will tend to your pet the same way I would my own. Though I made a career switch from working with animals in a professional capacity I remain knowledgeable and continue to petsit for others and care for my own pets. I have personally owned a variety of pets including cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for senior and special needs pets and also have a long-term chicken sitting position as well :) I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully meeting your pet soon! Im a lifelong pet owner and lover and have recently found myself with a much emptier and quiet home so I am hoping to fill that void with getting to spend time your pets :). I work 2 regular jobs but look forward to having fun with your pets in my spare time I will treat your pets as dearly as I'd treat my own, I have a childless quiet home with no other pets and many years of experience both professionally and personally to provide your pet with a safe and fun experience.

“Courtnie was fantastic once again! Our pups do better with her than with us I think! She truly understands the nurturing and patience it takes with our little rescue. Our Chiwie has been in the United States less than a year and is so comfortable at home now that she works at everyone who comes to the house. Courtnie is the only one she does not bark at other than us! Truly remarkable! We are so thankful for her! She goes above and beyond. In addition to our rescue our senior pup takes a bit of extra care. We we were so very grateful and could relax, knowing our babies were well taken care for. We cannot say enough about how amazing Courtnie is!”

“Kate took wonderful care of our cat while we were away visiting family for 8 days! We missed our girl dearly and really appreciated not only the photos but the care and time Kate took to care for her and play with her - our cat is usually very anxious around new people/sitters but took right to Kate!”

“Kimberly is the best cat sitter I have come across! My cat (Leroy) absolutely loves when she comes to visit and I feel great knowing that I can travel and leave Leroy in great hands. No amount of snow or unplowed roads stops Kimberly from dropping by and taking adorable pictures of Leroy to share. Kimberly is reliable, caring and respectful and I will definitely be booking with her in the future”

About: I’ve loved all sorts of animals since I was a young kid. From begging my parents for a puppy since I could speak, and going to friend’s houses who had pets, I always found a way to surround myself with animals. I have two dogs and two cats at home, who each have different energy levels. I love tending to the needs of all different ages and types of animals, whether that means going on a long walk or playing fetch, or giving some nice snuggles and pets for calmer animals. As a college student, I love to take a break from the daily grind and reconnect with other people and animals! I have a very flexible schedule, and can work with many different needs at this point in my life! I’m a student at UMD with a part time job and a flexible schedule! I am free sporadically through the day to check in with your furry friend, take a walk, and attune to their other needs as described by you. I am even more free in the evenings throughout the week to provide sitting for your animals in your home, or the same services I described earlier. Weekends are a great time to contact me too because I am frequently available to look after your pet(s). Ultimately, how I care for your pet depends on what you are most comfortable with and what the unique needs of your pet are. I have experience with crating my own dogs at home, and am more than comfortable doing that and taking any extra measures in your home that would make you feel even more comfortable leaving me with your pet! I also enjoy clean up spaces if that's something you're comfortable with.

About: I simply adore animals! I will provide loving, playful, patient, high quality care that will leave your fur babies begging for more! I am able to administer medications and general care as specified. I also offer nail/claw trims for dogs and cats for $20. Just check the bathing/grooming box. I prioritize play, so even drop ins will get plenty of entertainment! Supervised puzzle feeds, or playing with favorite toys, or whatever pops up in the moment. Pup-led play is usually the most fun! My schedule is fairly open most of the time, but I am going to be starting trade school to become a barefoot specialist for equines sometime in 2026. I need a flexible work schedule so I can trim my case study horses, and the horses I already trim for a friend. - REGARDING OVERNIGHT STAYS! My rates are for ONE 12 hr overnight visit. If you need me for consecutive nights with drop ins during the day, my rates increase to cover each drop in. Walks, nail trims, daily brushing are also an additional cost. These additional charges will be discounted, not my full rate. Let's discuss it 😃 My kitties and I enjoy a peaceful life out in the country. We're new to it, and it's not our house, so I am not currently offering boarding or doggy daycare. I am incredibly respectful of others' spaces. I follow the 'leave no trace' hiking guideline into clients' homes! I respect privacy and will never invite strangers in or take photos for any other reason than to update you, the owner.

“Maria did okay with my cat Polly. Maria played with Polly and Polly seemed comfortable with her. Polly's food scoop was left in a different location than it started and her water bowls weren't refilled, which is why I docked a star. I would trust Maria to watch Polly again and improve.”

About: I have had animals a majority of my life and have almost always had multiple animals in my current home, between my own animals, roommates and friends. I occasionally give a relatives diabetic cat her insulin shots, and my dog is on pain pills, so can administer those types of things if needed. I work full time, mostly in Superior, so most days I can stop home on a lunch break to let the animals out and check on things. However, I do work out on the country on Mondays and Thursdays, so don't have an option to stop home during the afternoon those days. But otherwise, having animals of my own I already plan around being able to feed them and of course give all the loves and potty breaks. I have a cat and a dog, so the house is already set up for animals! I do only have 1 chain set up outside but can easily set up more if needed, as well as space for crates if you use them, and pet gates to give or limit access to certain parts of the house.

About: I've been walking dogs through the wag walker app for the past several years in Madison, WI. I grew up with dogs and have many animals in my family. I truly love all animals and am very knowledgeable about pet body language and how to approach them with respect. I am located in Superior, WI and currently work at UWS 4 days a week. I am available to stay overnight with your animals or be flexible with lunch visits and multiple walks a day. I have a very flexible schedule! I teach a few yoga classes a week and work from my computer. I do take trips back to the midwest for holidays but not all. I am very respectful of other people's homes. I always leave a clean and tidy space. I am very gentle and detail oriented when learning an animals boundaries. I understand the importance of having a clean living environment for the client and pet alike.

About: Hi! Some things about me I love dog especially cat I work at a boarding facility in my home ton superior wi and it’s one of my favorite things! I love getting to take care of the dogs getting them to play going on walks just about everything ! I currently attend University of Wisconsin River Falls major is Dairy science a minor in Equine. I plan to become a large animal vet! I have much experience with cattle too! I grew up on an organic dairy farm when I was younger and spent much time on the farm. Pets are just like one of us! We should be making just as much time for them as we do for us! When I working at a previous boarding facility When ever I had down time I always would find a dog that was boarding and bring them out to play for a bit so they have so attention and somebody to play with. I treat them as if there my own to ensure that they feel comfortable with a new person and make sure that there still able to have fun with there owners are away!

Misha is always so wonderful with my medically needy cat. She makes sure she gets her medications (pills and topicals) and triages all her symptoms to adjust doses, add on PRN meds, etc. She has a huge heart for cats and I’m so grateful she’s available to babysit on Rover!! She is ALWAYS my go to person because she is so wonderful and gives thorough updates, great pictures, and lots of love and playtime to my sweet needy cat. I always rest assured knowing Roo is being cared for by Misha and in great hands !

Do yourself a favor and leave your cats in Misha's care. Our plane was almost delayed over night and she was ready and on call in case we needed to add another session. I felt very comfortable knowing she was there. From the moment I met her, it was clear caring for cats is her passion. She asked great questions, kept us updated on any concerns, and went above and beyond for our little fur babies. We will definitely utilize her services in the future. Also- go check out Wired Whisker! It's so cute and does so much good for cats. Thanks Misha!

Went above and beyond for the care of our cat. She’s very sweet and considerate for all of the cats needs. She sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away! It was very helpful as a new cat mom who wants to make sure her baby is doing well. Would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a sitter!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Simar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Simar is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 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 249 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Simar. 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 Simar. On Rover:

  • 92% 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.
