About: Hi! I am a dog parent to a sweet Pembroke Welsh corgi and I know how important it is to find someone who truly gets your dogs need from daily routine routines to emotional comfort. I value enrichment just as much as exercise from sniff walks and food puzzles to games and new experiences. I make sure dogs get the mental stimulation they need to feel satisfied and balanced. Whether your dog is high energy or prefers a slower pace I’ll taylor their day to the unique needs. I am attentive and committed to treating your pup like one of my own with lots of love gentle structure and constant updates to keep you in the loop. I am available everyday, from 6am to 5pm (sometimes even until 8pm). My Corgi is friendly and is also ready to play (if your dog wishes to). I follow what you indicate and do what’s best for your Pup. I knos how to read dog’s body language and is ready to make them feel loved. I am attentive of what your Pup puts in their mouth, the environment they are walking around, the noises… anything that might cause trouble.
About: I've been caring for cats my entire life and have extensive experience meeting their unique needs and personalities. I also have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've provided pet sitting for family and friends, helping with feeding, playtime, and daily care. I understand how important pets are to their families and strive to provide loving, reliable care so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. care of cats since I was very young. I currently work full-time Sunday through Thursday so on those days I would stop by in the late afternoon and early evenings. I am more flexible on Fridays and Saturdays. While I'd love to welcome every pet into my home, I have multiple pets of my own and cannot accommodate additional animals in my rental home. But while I'm visiting your own, your pet's routine is important to me. While caring for your pet in your home, I follow your instructions closely and ensure all daily tasks are completed, from feeding and walks to litter box cleaning, playtime, and picking up toys.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 10 years old, giving me years of experience caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following each owner’s specific care instructions. I’m currently job searching, as I am new to this area, so I will be available pretty much any time during daylight hours and weekends. I cannot bring pets into my apartments, but I am happy to watch someone else’s dog at their own place. I usually receive a list of things to do for the pet(s) and follow the instructions as they should be done, to ensure the pet(s) are comfortable.
“Jessica was so great at putting me at ease with my first trip away after getting a puppy. She came on time every day, communicated so fast, and was flexible when my travel schedule changed last minute. It’s great to have a trusted resource when needed!”
About: I have had dogs my whole entire life. I most recently moved cross country from TX to WA with 3 cats and my perfect one eyed dog Sophie. I have medication administration experience with others’ dogs as well as my own, and I have been trusted to watch people’s pets and houses for many many years. I am still finding my roots here in WA and I believe being able to meet and treat your pets like my own will bring me to feel more at home. I am between jobs currently so I have very little schedule limitations. I currently have no overnight house sitting stays listed, but that can be changed if it works for both of us! I love getting to know new areas by walking around and when I have a dog with me that’s familiar with the area, even better. It’s like having my own little tour guide. I can walk, feed, water, brush, play, etc. with your babies. I am currently not able to have any pets stay at my apartment, but I am open to house sitting or doing overnights if it works out for us both.
About: I grew up around many animals, especially dogs! Breeds I’m most familiar with include shar-peis, pitbulls, rottweilers, and German shepherds! I’ve also taken care of bunnies, guinea pigs, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons, so no pet is too much for me! I just graduated university and am looking to return to university online to get a second bachelors degree, so I currently am not looking for a job and instead would love to be able to get out of the house and boost my serotonin by meeting people’s pets! I love cuddling with pets and seeing their personalities start to shine through as they get more comfortable! I love taking dogs on walks, seeing how long it will take a cat to choose to sit with me, and holding reptiles for as long as they like! Just being around a person’s pet while their owner is away makes me feel great since I know I’m giving the owner peace of mind while making a new friend.
“Karen and Matt took amazing care of our dogs! They always kept in contact and made sure our dogs were happy! They certainly go the extra mile and we will definitely book with them again!!”
“Here’s a polished Rover review you can use: --- **Review for Rhonda** I cannot recommend Rhonda enough! This was my first time leaving my cat alone, and I had a lot of anxiety about it — but Rhonda was incredibly attentive and reassuring from start to finish. She made sure he had everything he needed, took the time to play with him, and sent lots of photos that really put me at ease. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and attention she gave him. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life, and cats since I was 11. I've mostly pet sat for family and friends so far, and hope to get the opportunity to meet your pet(s) soon too! I will respect your pet's boundaries, they'll get to choose how much or how little they want to interact with me. I can medicate pets, and do so daily with one of my own cats. I currently live with an elderly mini Aussie, and can adjust activity levels as needed for older pets. I'm currently looking for a job related to plants. I have plenty of free time to give your pet(s) whatever care they may need while looking after them. I will do anything your pet may need, including but not limited to crating, medicating, and walks. As long as you can provide me clear instructions, I'll get it done!
About: My family has owned dogs and cats since before I have memories. I was that kid that preferred to watch Animal Planet and I've always been passionate about all critters. I started working as a stable hand with horses when I was only 10. I also worked at Sumner Veterinary Hospital in the boarding facility for a little over a year and received employee of the month twice in that time. During my time working at Sumner Vet I worked with all breeds and temperaments! It truly was some of the most rewarding work of my life. I currently have one 25lb mutt dog that I love and my first personal dog was my Rottie mix, Rocky. My family housed dogs and cats of every kind. I'm not skitish when it comes to "large personalities" and am confident in getting to know your fur baby at their pace. Know that with me, your fur babies are in loving, patient and experienced hands I currently work as a dog trainer and am attending school for behavior modification. I love walks myself and can't wait to walk your puppers. I have experience handling every kind of dog, and cat. From sweet and excited to shy or reactive. I can administer medications and am very thorough in following house schedules and plans
About: I've lived on a hobby farm most of my life. My mother is a dog trainer and I would attend classes regularly, along with helping run the dog rescue. I know most basics of veterinary care and how to calmly react when an animal needs care. I love animals and take pride in doing things well. Animals respect and love me because I approach them with calm authority, love, and understanding. I respect my surroundings and always leave a home in better conditions than it was when I arrived. I would love to get the chance to know your pets while you enjoy your time, knowing your fur babies are safe and happy... with daily pictures and updates! :). We have a pomski and a young corgi. I am here when you need me. :) please just let me know 1 day prior for changes. I have 2 large fenced yards. I am here for you and your fur baby to have fun, educational, and peaceful vacations. :) There is most always an adult in the home as there are 2 disabled people who do not work, so your pet will be cared for 24/7 We care for your pet as one of our own. If there is a behavior such as jumping, we work in that during the stay.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Hill
Susan did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were away for two weeks. We came home to clean food, water, and litter spaces and two happy kitties; it was obvious from the pictures that she spent quality time playing with them and petting them. Susan went above and beyond to make sure the cats were well-cared for in our absence.
Nikki was great with our kitties. Even the most shy kitties came out for her! She was also able to give our most stubborn kitty his medicine. It was such a relief knowing our kitties were being well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be asking her to come back.
Rachel communicated ahead of time when she had a scheduling concern and wanted to make sure I was comfortable with her mother also helping with Tonks’ care. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable by being available for a meet and greet as well as dropping off my key in person.
Natalie was did some drop in visit with my babies for me and she was amazing!! 🥹 Our dog Thunder can be really shy and nervous and she took the time to make sure that he was comfortable with her and went potty each time! She fed our kitties and even cleaned up the mess from our special needs boy trying to eat! (He gets kibble everywhere). Constant pictures were sent which was gave me such peace of mind that our babies were well taken care of. Natalie even went above and beyond and did some of our dishes! We’re so looking forward to continuing to work with her! We have a 4 day housesitting job booked for the last week of the month and we couldn’t feel more at ease that she’ll take care of our babies the way we would. Thank you Natalie❤️❤️
Lexy was amazing! Our kitties LOVED her. Even our shy boy warmed right up to her. Lexy was a pro at providing meds and all care necessary to our kitties. I would recommend Lexy to anyone who has kitties that love some affection and or have any medical needs. She’s the best!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in South Hill is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 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 9,977 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Hill. 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 South Hill. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
