“Aimee & Derek were fantastic! They made sure to send daily updates and photos. When I returned the cats were happy and the place was clean. It's so great to find such wonderful critter sitters, so the kitties can be at home and not stressed.”
“Kimberly was super communicative and responsive, she was also friendly and her mom was willing to jump in and help out with my medically complex kitty when needed for the first couple of visits while my kitties got comfy and familiar which was a huge win for us all I think! I’m so grateful to them both for being willing to help me out and watch my boys, I’ll absolutely be asking to book again :) Thank you Kimberly!”
“They did such a fantastic job taking care of our cat, Buttercup! They were very good with her and provided daily, detailed updates. I will most definitely use them again!”
“Elisabeth was wonderful and very thorough in her communication while I was gone! She made things so easy and took wonderful care of our cat, I would 1000% rebook her again for future needs.”
“Jenn is the best!! She made us feel so at ease leaving our young kitten. Took so many good videos and photos for us and is always so quick to respond. Definitely recommend and would love to hire again!”
“Tina took great care of our cocker spaniel in our motorcoach while we traveled to a different area of Idaho for two nights. She dropped in three times a day and played with her for an hour each visit. She showed up on time for all visits and our dog was so comfortable with Tina she even ate when we were gone, which is unusual for her. Would highly recommend Tina.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and it was truly amazing. Debbi went above and beyond taking care of our 2 labs. She was wonderful to work with, did an excellent job communicating, and truly deserves a 5 star review. Thank you Debbi, I hope we can have you watch them again! Ole and Kylie”
“Kimberly did an excellent job! I hired her to do four 30-minute drop-in visits at my home over 1 1/2 days while I was out of town. I have two dogs. Through the Rover app, I received texts from her of when she arrived, when she left, and photos and comments of her visits. She played ball fetch with them and kept them very happy. I definitely will recommend Kimberly to my family, friends and neighbors.”
“Kristen B did a great job with drop-in visits with our senior cat for 5 days. She cleaned litter boxes, and provided canned wet food daily. She checked water. She was responsible, and sent a picture with a comment each day. ☆☆☆☆☆ 🐈😸”
“Atticus was great with taking care of our cats as well as being agreeable to taking care of non-pet related tasks such as taking out the garbage to the curb and bringing in packages. Atticus was communicative, agreeable to a meet and greet, and stuck to the care schedule. I would book with Atticus in the future and recommend others do the same.”
“Emily is the best cat-sitter that we have ever had! She was responsive and trustworthy, and friendly to boot! She was understanding and flexible and went above and beyond to make sure our kitty was well cared for. I can't recommend her more highly.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and previously worked as a veterinary technician, giving me a strong foundation in pet care and safety. I’ve also had my own dogs and cats, so I truly understand how much our pets mean to us. I currently don’t have pets of my own, so I love caring for others and filling that space with lots of attention and love. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. I have open availability! I’d love to use my free time to walk your dog, visit with them, or provide extra attention and love. (Cats too!) I’m flexible and happy to help care for your pets in ways that fit your schedule, so they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priority. I can come to your home to visit, walk, or spend time with your pet in their familiar environment, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Every pet is treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and supervision so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I also love to send picture updates!
“Thank you, Ron and Monica, for taking wonderful care of our little Tiger girl. We cannot thank you enough for making sure she is secure, happy and well fed while we are out of town. And the fact that she is comfortable with you both--means so much to us. You are the best! :)”

Elisabeth is always consistent and I can count on her to cover everything my pet needs as well as checking my front door and bringing in packages or anything I may need. She is able to solve problems such as locating extra food when I didn’t plan according! Xander gets extra attention, even a stroller ride with Elisabeth so we never worry about him while we’re away. She is our go to!
Kimberly was amazing. Dropped in morning and evening to feed/play with our dogs while we were out of town. Kept us updated with photos and via text message. I seriously have no faults on Kimberly and her service. She managed 4 complex doggos - one has cancer, one has wobblers syndrome, one is a puppy, and the other being the dominant leader of the pack. Highly recommend Kimberly!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Star on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,513 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Star. 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 Star 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 Star. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
