“Bonnie took excellent care of my cat. She was happy & playful when I got home from my trip and I attribute that to Bonnie's skill and natural ease with animals. Sarsaparilla is a good girl, but can get over stimulated and feisty at times. Bonnie was thorough in her notes on her daily visits and I felt at ease knowing Sarsaparilla was being well cared for.”

“Phoebe watched our dog for the first time this past weekend. She managed to win her over pretty quickly. She did drop in visits. She was prompt and kept us informed the whole time. She used the Rover app to let us know when she came and how long she stayed, so no worry on our part. She also set lots of photos. We will definitely have her back!”

About: I have been a cat owner since i was 10, and adore all animals! I volunteered at the MSPCA, where I adopted our family cat who lived to be 18, and took care of dogs of all ages and sizes-puppies too! I work remotely, and part time right now, so I can easily add pet care to my routine. I am looking forward to spending more time with furry friends! I am careful to follow any special instructions for your pet, as well as ensure any outside spaces are secure if your pup has one for playtime

“Colin always goes above and beyond when it comes to looking after the house! Most importantly, though, the cats love him, which is not a given with them - they tend to be shy around new people. I would definitely recommend Colin, and my husband and I plan to rebook in the future!”

About: From the moment I wake up, pet care is my top priority. Mornings begin with fresh water, clean bowls, nutritious meals, and outdoor time. Your pet will have constant care and companionship and will feel right at home with room to roam - and someone by their side all day. I will treat your pet as if it were my own with respect, care, trust. ask me any questions! thank you ! i always respond! I work remote and my girlfriend who also is a sitter on rover works remote 3 days a week, so your dog will never be alone or unattended. Always being cared for as they would be at their own home! Safety is most important for me. House has a fully fenced in yard, gates inside for feeding time, automatic poland spring dog bowl feeder to keep everyone hydrated. No excess or not recommended food to keep dogs from feeling ill. Leashed outside of house on walks.

“This is the 2nd time Virginia has cared for our three cats. They each have different personalities and she gave them individual attention based on what they needed, and sent us multiple videos. She was very loving and caring to them. They also eat different foods and she followed our instructions perfectly. She vacuumed and even brought in packages. We highly recommend Virginia!”

About: Hi! I just really love dogs. I sadly can’t have my own right now, so being able to care for yours is the next best thing. I am a homebody, love nature walks and being outside, and I live on a quiet street with a large backyard with lots of room for a dog to play and run. I have experience with all sizes, ages, and temperaments of dogs. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so plenty of time for walks, parks, play, and cuddles. I love having a pet to care for because it gets me out of the house and active :) Your pet will be treated like a king/queen and spoiled with so much attention and love. Depending on your requests and your pet’s activity levels, etc. we’ll do multiple walks a day, and other adventures (if you are comfortable) like parks and hikes.

This was our first time using Rover and we are so lucky that we had Joy as our first sitter! She was very responsive and made us feel like we left our dog in great hands. Thank you Joy for taking care of Stella while we were away!

Emma was amazing taking care of our golden retriever, Miles! We booked her for walks and drop ins over a 3 week period. She was so reliable and communicative. Miles had so much fun with her. Emma even found out Miles likes car rides and would bring him on rides around the neighborhood! Would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for someone to help take care of their pet!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Still River

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
