“Nicole has watched all of our pets multiple times now, she's so reliable and an excellent communicator. Could not recommend Nicole more, I promise you won't be disappointed when working with her”
About: I've had more than 2 dogs in my home my entire life, from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience giving the dogs medicine when they need it. I work part time at a retail store, so I am never working more than 9 hours at a time, I usually only work 4-5 hours normally. I make the pets my priority when I am caring for them and I watch their behaviors so I can catch anything out of the ordinary. I follow feeding directions and potty schedules.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, from smaller breeds like dachshunds to larger dogs like Labs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve also dog-sat for family members and a family friend, caring for their dogs while they were away. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, care, playtime, and affection. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own! I work full-time during the day, so I’m primarily available for pet care during evenings, weekends, and select holidays. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to accommodate drop-ins and walks when my schedule allows! I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable and follow their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care your pet needs. I’m respectful of your home and will make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure before leaving. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for!
“Elizabeth is a great pet sitter. She is punctual, reliable and friendly. We could relax, know that she was taking care of our cats. We enjoyed getting photos and updates.”
About: I do walking, snuggles, feed them, potty breaks and lots of play time! I do have a pet myself, but she stays home. I trained her all by myself. I taught her not to bark, lick the face, sit shake, stay fetch, and to love people. I'm a easy going person and I'm a animal lover myself! I hope to hear from you. I can start as soon as possible. You can also reach me at 7I also animal sit for my family and friends all the time. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text me. Thank you, Jenny M.
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals and always had a dog and cat in my house growing up. I’ve worked as a dog groomer for 2 years and miss having the everyday interaction with dogs and cats. I have an emotional support dog of my own, his name is Avett and he’s my little man he came to work at the groomers with me and is friendly with all dogs. Being able to comfort an animal is emotionally fulfilling and being able to treat and cuddle them brings so much joy I love them all as my own. I have a beautiful fenced in yard and home that is able to be a safe haven for your loves when you need help with care. I would love to work with animals again and have the gratifying feeling of caring for them. I’m able to work from home select days which gives me the ability to work with animals. I have a nice fenced in yard with room to run and a wonderful walking trail next to my house to take them on adventures.
About: I've been taking care of people's cats and dogs alike ever since I was a teenager around the Edina neighborhood. I moved to Woodbury around 2019 where I adopted a cat. I grew up with dogs but I've wanted a cat too so now I'd say I'm proficient with both cats and dogs. I work part-time. I have flexible schedule on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.so I'm pretty much available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I'm available to stay overnight if that is a need for the pet. I always make sure to establish trust between myself and the pet and the pet parent. I also understand animals need time to adjust to new people and every animal is different. Some also need more space to adjust and I'm that person that will give the time and space the animal needs.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so caring for them is second nature to me! From bouncy puppies who need patience and consistency to sweet senior pups who enjoy a slower pace, I love them all. I’m happy to help with basic training, stick to routines, and make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and tail wags while you’re away I’m in school, but I make plenty of time for pets! I can fit walks, playtime, and care into my daily and weekly schedule, so every pet gets attention, love, and fun while I balance school. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfy wherever they are! In your home, I follow your instructions and make sure they have food, water, and lots of love. In my home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of supervision, cuddles, and fun so every pet feels safe and cared for
About: We currently have 4 dogs and love all of them! We have a Great Dane, a Weimaraner, a Springer Spaniel and a King Charles Cavalier. My pet care routine is daily!!! Starting early am with breakfast and ending with a walk and dinner in the evening and bedtime snuggles before bed. I will make sure your pet is safe, happy and taken care of each time I visit. I enjoy walking dogs and rewarding them for good behavior.
“Ella took my last minute booking request twice now and she is amazing. Jude and Canela love her. She kept me updated, she was professional and punctual. I would definitely have Ella watch my dogs again!”
“Kendra is very professional and so easy to talk to. Our cats took to her quickly and seemed to enjoy her being around. She sent pictures and video which was reassuring. Would definitely ask her to pet sit again.”
“They looked to have been well fed and happy when I got home. I always appreciate your willingness to communicate essentials so that important detail doesn’t get missed and that you were not put off by the snow. I am sure they loved your stories and I am grateful that someone they know and trust attends to them. Maturity and experience mean everything.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 8 or 9, mostly family dogs to start. I have also house sat for not only family dogs but friends as well. I work at a doggie daycare facility currently, so I am familiar with dog behaviors and care. I currently work full-time in evenings, so that gives plenty of morning time for walks and cuddles. I am available for both boarding and daily care most of my week and always try to be flexible with clients. I love to have animals be as comfortable as they can be in their owners home, whatever that might look like. My goal is to make the clients and dogs as comfortable as possibly while building trust and good relationship.
About: I have my own German Shepherd I have had since she was 6 months. As well as having been around dogs a good portion of my life, I do my best to be what she needs I work very part-time at a dominoes, usually only 4-8 hours a week, i do have appointments on Tuesdays, lasting only about 2 hours so I am always home and have plenty of time for your beloved doggos I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a firmly secured tie-out and extra leashes for outside potty breaks and/or walks, as well as a 5 year old German Shepherd (she is spade) Who is very happy and animal friendly

Alexa was amazing! We really appreciated the meet & greet and the chance to introduce her to our high-maintenance dogs (we love them, but they have special needs).

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Somerset is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $43 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 3,591 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Somerset. 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 Somerset. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 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.
