About: I’ve been pet sitting for my neighborhood since middle school. I have watched all kinds of pets from birds to dogs! I love to go for walks and jogs, and am used to high energy pets. I am currently a student at WVU and have morning to afternoon classes with breaks in between. Other than class I am home and always willing to commute. I am very attentive and have taken care of puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats at different points. I have skills and knowledge of how to work with pets of all ages and sizes.
About: I have taken care of dogs/cats as long as I can remember. It first started with some family friends dogs and now I dogsit probably close to once a week. I can walk dogs as well as do drop in visits, and pet sitting. I love animals and pets and it is so fun for me to take care of animals. I understand how important it is to stay on top of giving medications. I had a cat with chronic kidney disease where I had to give subcutaneous fluids so I know how to do that if needed. I am a nursing student at WVU and I am also an athlete at WVU. This is really the only job that allows me to make money and is flexible with my schedule. I just graduated nursing school and I am an RN looking for a side hustle. I work overnights so My work schedule depends on weather I can sleep over with your animal but my schedule is pretty flexible and I have been able to work with clients well! I currently live in a house that has a wide living space. I also live walking distance to the rail trail which is a great place to take your dog outside to walk. I also live right next to a dog park if your dog gets along with other animals I would be happy to take them to the park. I enjoy letting your dog get outside and have lots of play time.
About: I will care for any type of animal, whether it’s puppies or senior dogs or cats. I am also on the pre-vet track in college, along with participating in clubs like wildlife and vet. In college I don't get the opportunity to see many pets, at home I have a gecko I care for when I'm there, and over breaks I tend to pet sit family or family friends. So while pet care is not in my daily life I have experience caring for pets over many years. Caring for pets either in their home or mine I will listen to their very specific instructions because I know how picky some animals are.
About: Hi! I’ve spent years sitting and walking dogs for friends and family, so I definitely know every dog has their own personality and am happy to cater to them and take whatever time is needed to make them the most comfortable! Growing up there were always 3+ dogs in the house including puppies, seniors, and dogs with disabilities, so I’m equipped to handle all stages of life and different needs! I am patient, understanding, experienced, and ready to give your dog the most loving care! As a student with a part-time job my schedule is pretty flexible! For dogs, that means consistent walks, potty break, and feedings that match their normal schedule. For cats, regular feeding times, litter maintenance, and plenty of attention if they prefer it! Since my shifts change week to week, I will always confirm availability ahead of time and communicate about timing! Your pets safety is my top priority, in your home or mine! I live in an apartment, so I’m mindful about creating a secure, calm place, free of hazardous foods or items. I treat every pet in my care with the same level of attention I’d want for my own, so you can feel confident your dog or cat is in a safe and comfortable environment.

About: Rover Bio Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15 years of experience as a dog owner, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. 🐾 I live an active, athletic lifestyle and love staying busy—whether that means getting outside for a walk, going for a run, playing in the yard, or simply enjoying some fresh air. I’m happy to match your pup’s energy level, whether they’re ready for an adventure or prefer a slower stroll. But don’t let the athletic side fool you—I’m also a huge fan of couch cuddles, and quality time. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, affection, and love while you’re away.

About: As a veterinary assistant for over 3 years and a pre-vet student, I’ve been passionate about animals since I was very little and began pet sitting over 10 years ago. I have experience with many different animals in clinical settings, home, farm and zoo settings. Most of my work experience has been in emergency medicine. I have also enjoyed rescuing and fostering dogs, cats, and exotics. One of my college courses was on dog training, and I have trained my own dogs, birds, and rodents. I’ve also studied exotic/zoo medicine and conservation abroad in South Africa for 4 weeks! I regularly work from 6am to 4-7pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and only have one class M/W/F 11-11:50am. I am usually scheduled to work Wednesday and Friday afternoons anywhere from 1-3pm to 5-7pm which gives me time to check on pets around lunch. I usually have all day Monday free other than the one class. I spend as much time as I can with the pets I care for and make sure to give them love, attention, and exercise just like I would my own animals. They will get lots of belly rubs and cuddles! Depending on how they tolerate it, I can do nail trims and baths if requested.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 11 years old. I have bathed, fed, walked, and played with dogs and cats alike. I love it a lot and animals just bring me joy. I currently work part time at another job so I’ll have time to help take care of your pets throughout the week and keep them company. I am able to move around a bunch to play with your pet! I can also cuddle and relax with them if that’s more their speed. I understand every pet is different and I can work with them however they need! I’ll also make sure to stay communicative, letting you know what’s going on and sending pictures of your fur baby’s.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old, volunteering at local shelters and helping family, friends, and neighbors with pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all ages, including senior pets—my own pup is getting older, so I understand the patience and gentle care they need. I’m also comfortable with basic grooming tasks like bathing and brushing. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re family. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I’m currently out of school with open availability after 10 AM and on weekends. Even when school resumes in the fall, I’ll make sure pet care fits into my schedule. You can count on me to treat your pets with love and attention. I do not board pets in my home, but I’m happy to care for your pets in their own familiar environment. I offer in-home pet sitting, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day as needed. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, and I strive to create a calm, loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and attention I would give my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Star City
Beyond happy to find Kara on Rover to take care of my kitties! She did an excellent job. Sent pictures and spent time with them. I highly recommend Kara and will definitely be contacting her for all the future cat care. Kara is very sweet and kind. I knew I was leaving them in great hands and felt so comfortable for her to come into our home while away! Thank you, Kara!
Mikayla did a great job taking care of our dogs. We have 2 very different breeds with different needs a d Mikayla took care of them so well. I had complete peace of mind with her thorough drop ins. We are from out of town, but I will recommend her to anyone in the Morgantown, WV area. Our dogs were so happy with her, and so were we. I will 100% use her again if/when we return to the area.
I had a great experience with her as Bobby’s sitter. She was thorough, attentive, and followed all of my care instructions. It was clear that she genuinely understands cats and their behavior. Bobby approached her almost immediately and quickly took a liking to her. He loved playing with her, and I really appreciated that she spent quality time keeping him company during each visit. Knowing he was getting attention and interaction—not just food and litter care—gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She also went above and beyond by helping feed the feral cat that regularly visits my front door, which I really appreciated. After every visit, she left detailed notes and updates in the Rover app, so I always knew how Bobby was doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and knowledgeable cat sitter.
Anna has consistently demonstrated not only her passion but her love for caring with every interactions with Holly. I’m so grateful to have found such a kind human being to care for my little girl. Thank you for being flexible and communicating with me — I appreciate you greatly!
Ingrid has done a few drop in visits with our schnauzer puppy. She's been wonderful about being communicative, sending pictures and updates, and following detailed instructions for care. She spent a lot of time at our meet and greet asking lots of questions and even giving lots of attention to our cats, who she was not there to care for. I would highly recommend Ingrid and we will be sure to rely on her again for future care.
Katy is professional, knowledgeable and dependable. She always does a great job handling our 3 cats. She is able to meet them at their various social levels from super friendly youngster, to mostly friendly teen to our older "seen it all and not impressed" cat.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Star City is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 267 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Star City. 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.

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.
