“Jessica was the perfect person for us. Outstanding communication, clearly loves animals, and goes above and beyond in every way. She will instantly be our first choice the next time we need to leave for a few days and look for someone to care for our cats. Highly recommended.”
About: I have mostly had experience with cats since my family has had them almost my whole life. However I have been around dogs a lot! I have walked them many times and cleaned up after them as well. I would love to gain more experience with caring for dogs and am very affectionate with all animals, especially the cuddly ones :) I am currently working part-time, so I have a lot of opportunities to check up on your pets! I am open to checking on them anytime, but would prefer midday and evening checkups to very early or late ones. I am very gentle with all animals but can be assertive if necessary. I will follow all of your requirements as best as I can to make sure you and your pet are happy!
“Caitlin took wonderful care of my cats while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to my pets’ needs. I appreciated the regular updates and photos—it gave me real peace of mind. My pets seemed happy and well cared for when I returned. She even brought my trash cans back from the curb and brought in my mail. I would absolutely book with Caitlin again and highly recommend her.”
About: I have a pug named chunk he is my other son. I would love to have a dog to watch so he has a friend to play with & be around. He's friendly & loves to cuddle. He also loves to run around but gets out of breath quick. I live in an apartment with a dog park and also a fenced in outdoor patio area and a big yard to walk around. I have dog beds, and crate if your dog uses them. My 11 & 9 year old sons love dogs & would spend the whole day playing with them. I’m currently home most of the time I’m babysitting about eight hours a week in the middle of the day so I have plenty of time to be with your dog. Your dog will be leashed outside and safe inside abc out. Whatever you want me to do with your dog I definitely do as needed.
“Daran made twice daily visits for my senior dog, who needed help getting up and out. He was reliable, friendly, and very good with my dog - who got so excited when Daran arrived! Would definitely hire him again.”
“Amanda was really great with the dog very very thoughtful came over and met me before just so she would be familiar with me and the dog before the first drop-in visit are the only drop-in visit actually but she was really great. I would recommend her to anyone she communicates well she’s great with the dog a real blessing.”
About: I grew up with German Shepherds but have always loved all kinds of dogs, big or small! I have my own large fur baby, a 2 year old bernedoodle, so I am used to high energy. Fully comfortable looking after all ages, puppies to seniors. I work from home and have plenty of time to play with and walk your pups! I can be available Monday, Tuesday, Friday and weekends. Whatever your pup prefers, I am comfortable with handling. Whether that be hanging out inside, walks around the neighborhood, going in their crate, or running around outside. I will make sure to stick to their routine!
About: Have taken care of many types of dogs from Dalmatians and Cane Corsos, to Pomeranians and chihuahuas. I will make sure your dog is taken care of and entertained to my upmost ability I am currently in school 2 days a week, as well as working on getting my private pilots license , but I would be out before 12 everyday. I could take care of your pet before as well as after my lessons. I will follow any rule given to me as well as any instructions about care or treatment of your pet. I will not snoop around or try and be nosy or go into any rooms you don’t want me to go into.
“Kennedy has been watching our pup for two weeks now and she is incredible. She must come with lots of energy because Tyche is always running around like crazy, which is really good for her. Kennedy's wrap up notes are fantastic as are her pictures. She is communicative and dependable. We are so happy she's watching our girl!”
About: Hi my name is Alicia, I am 29 years old. Im very friendly, outgoing, and a hard worker. I work full time Sunday-Wednesday but am available the rest of the week and would love to help with your pets. Ive had dogs all sizes, and im comfortable with cats, and other 4 legged animals as well. I currently have a French bulldog and corgi who love to play ball, swim, and go for walks. I love all dogs and have tons of experience . Ive pet sat for days, and weeks as well as done drop ins and walks. I would prefer to pet sit in my home but could also pet sit in yours.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting regularly for the past four years for three wonderful families! I have experience from energetic labs to mellow mixed-breeds dogs and cats! I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic routines, and giving lots of love and attention! As someone who loves being outdoors, I enjoy long walks and making sure dogs get plenty of movement and adventure. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to get to know their quirks to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos (as much or as little as you prefer) so you can have peace of mind but also know your pet is in good hands. 😇 I'm currently working as a server, so my schedule can be very flexible and I can typically request time off to make time for your pets! I can care for your pet in your home! I feel this is most comfortable for pets as opposed to getting to know a new person and environment simultaneously.
About: I'm Nicole, and I'm a young professional living in Plymouth. I've grown up with dogs, and have experience with a variety of breeds; from Maltese to Labradors. I am flexible with scheduling. I have availability in the early mornings, around lunch time, and any time after 5pm. I am also available on the weekends. I enjoy taking multiple walks a day, so having a dog with me on those walks would be great! It’s a win-win for the both of us. I have a fenced in yard and my own own dog at home who is crate trained. I can crate your dog if need be!
About: I strictly follow your dog’s personal and walking routines to prevent any anxiety, while sending frequent photo updates so you can travel completely worry free. Working from home allows me to easily blend my day with your dog’s needs, offering frequent play and potty breaks and endless cuddles while working. By staying at your place, I minimize your dog’s anxiety. I provide dedicated overnight care, plenty of playtime, and frequent updates so you feel connected.
About: I’ve had dog(s) since before I was born and I try to make sure that they receive adequate back rubs, treats, and outfits in addition to their basic care. As a kid I watched many neighbors dogs while they were on vacation and I am always the first one to fill a food or water bowl At this time I have a wide range of availability to care for dogs in my schedule. I am open to different care options to best meet the dog’s needs I have a fenced in area where my three dogs are able to let themselves in and out via doggy door. They can have as much food as they want as they are feeder fed.
About: I have taken care of dogs of multiple sizes and breeds from the age of 8. I have always been a natural dog lover! Although newer to cats, my experience in the field of ABA has made me patient, dependable, and attentive to behavior and routines. I follow instructions carefully and provide calm, compassionate, and individualized care, no matter the population or demographic I am working with! I am currently in my masters program for applied behavior analysis, gaining my fieldwork for ABA. I have flexible hours and often have availability periodically throughout the day! If communicated prior, I am easily able to accommodate most schedules. I communicate with the owner to ensure I understand each pet’s routine, providing feeding, walks, play, or medication all as directed, as each pet has their own individual needs! My priory is to maintain attention while keeping the clients home clean and secure.

Avery was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Communication was excellent, she sent thoughtful updates, looked after my home as if it were her own, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in South Pond is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $52 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 1,788 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Pond. 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 Pond. On Rover:
- 89% 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 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.
