“I feel good about leaving my kitties in Matt & Alyssa's hands. I come home to a clean cat box, clean water and food in the bowl, and the kitties don't seem too stressed about having been left home alone.”
“Marc is doing a fantastic job of keeping our pup incredibly happy in the middle of the day. It is such a relief to be able to trust that he will get quality time and a good walk in the middle of the day when we can’t be with him. Thank you, Marc!!”
“Again, Sara went on and beyond, and took super good care of our dog! Our dog had an amazing time with her! We even received her kind note and her selected photo printouts of our dog. Such a kind person! We completely trust her with our dog and will not hesitate to book her for the next time!”
“Leah was fantastic, flexible, and extremely responsible. She was able to quickly accommodate an earlier visit request and provide us details about the visit. Will definitely be contacting her in the future. She bonded with Duke the very first day she met him and then they had a great time while we were away. Highly recommend.”
“Xiaoxue was great with our two dogs. She came to meet them and was very thorough on learning what they needed. The pictures and rover card were great to get. Highly recommend!”

I'm happy to assist you and your furbabies. I work remotely from home during the week and have availability to pop over for a walk, bathroom break or food assist. Since I work from home they can even hang out with me all day either inside or in my large fenced in yard. I have 2 cats who might be a little shy but are friendly. They have been around dogs and will hide if a dog is just too much energy. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for zoomies. I also have a crate, toys and bed for your dog.

About: I absolutely adore dogs; To me, my family pets are like my brothers and sisters. I love getting to know a dog, and finding out all their little personality quirks. It makes me genuinely happy to have an animal cuddle up to me at night, or to take them on a nice long walk and see them running around all happy with their tongue hanging out. I adore petting, cuddling, and talking to animals like they’re people, but I’m always aware of and respectful of body language and boundaries; I will never ignore a pet that wants attention, and I will never bother a pet that wants to be left alone, either. Personally, I’m just here to meet lots of cute animals to pet and spoil, and whatever money I can make from it is a nice bonus ☺️ I work remote from my laptop; Usually that means I’m working from home, but I can work from basically anywhere with an internet connection. I’m on my computer intermittently between 9-5, attending infrequent meetings and responding to messages, but I typically have to be at my computer for certain periods of time for <20% of the day; Outside of meetings, I have total flexibility to go on hour+ long walks, play with animals, or take care of chores like cleaning litter boxes and feedings. I am extremely cautious with all pets, but especially other people’s. I will keep a close eye on them whenever they’re with me, whether we’re out and about or just at home. I double check water, food, and litter boxes throughout the day, and do thorough walkthroughs to check for messes if dogs are ever in a different part of the house for me or they are alone for more than an hour. I will be extra careful to only take dogs to trails and parks that I know are safe, and will always keep them away from roads, thin ice, and hunting areas. You’ll also get frequent pictures and videos from me throughout the day so you can be sure your fuzzy family members are safe and happy.

I have a flexible schedule and can drop in up to the early afternoon (3pm). I work locally and have a reliable car that I can get to clients with. I will treat your home and space with the utmost respect. I will ensure your dog is secure as well as your house before completing my appointment.
About: Hello, my name is James! I don't remember a time where I did not live with a dog around the house. My first dog was a Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever, “duck toller for short”. named Trouble. He loved to guard around house and bark into the darkness. My current dogs are a pair of tiny Australian terriers named Chaos and Nemesis. They love to chase the wildlife in our forest, but are always down for pets in snuggling up. Given my experience growing up with dogs I hope that I can get to know your canine friends and spend more of my time with the creatures I love. Whether its a quick check in, a dog walk, or few hours of pet/housesitting ; I have plenty of time in my schedule to make for pet care. I will always try and treat the pets I am taking take of with as much love as their owners share with them. Plus a few extra treats.

“Danyel was great! She was very friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. She is obviously an animal lover and made me feel comfortable right away. I loved the pictures she sent. My cat loved her!”
About: Hi! I’m Leah, and I’ve been around animals my entire life, with 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I grew up with parents who are veterinarians, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, behavior, and recognizing when something may not be quite right. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently taking real estate classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available for pet care throughout the day. I’m able to work dog walking and pet sitting into my schedule easily, and I enjoy having a job that keeps me active while allowing me to continue working toward my career goals. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I always follow the owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pets are comfortable, safe, and getting plenty of attention. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. With my 20 years of experience around animals and growing up with veterinarian parents, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, ages, and needs.

About: I had a dog my whole life up until a few years ago. He was half yellow lab half golden and was my favorite thing in the world.

I have classes everyday except Thursdays but I do have breaks in between classes and am happy to do things during those breaks. I am happy to care for your pets in whatever way you want me to. I would love to take them for walks or just hang out with them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
Marc was wonderful! He checked in on our two dogs over the past few days and did a great job making sure they were both happy and well cared for. He took the time to play fetch with Rory and made sure Kiera was comfortable and had everything she needed. We really appreciated his attentiveness and care, and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!
Leah was fantastic, flexible, and extremely responsible. She was able to quickly accommodate an earlier visit request and provide us details about the visit. Will definitely be contacting her in the future. She bonded with Duke the very first day she met him and then they had a great time while we were away. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Stow is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $44 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 10,672 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Stow. 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 Stow. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% 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.
