“Sandy was amazing with my doggos and very prompt with communication- really grateful she was available short-notice for our trip, and appreciated the many photos and check-ins! ☺️”
“Nancy is an absolute joy who goes above and beyond, happily following Asher's lead on every walk no matter how bossy he gets. Her warm, friendly nature and genuine love for him make her truly amazing.”
“Emily was awesome with our kitties while we were away and was super flexible when we gave her the wrong house key (somehow?!?). Would definitely recommend her to others!”
“Kami did a great job taking care of my older tuxedo cat Jordan! She was very kind and provided updates and photos for every visit. The drop-in visits were only thirty minutes but I could tell the attention to detail and care that went in to her visit. Kami, followed feeding instructions to the "T" and did well to maintain a clean litter pan area, especially due to my cat's tendency to have accidents outside of his designated bathroom area. Kami even took out the trash, so when I arrived home there was no unwelcoming smells. My experience with Kami was fantastic, and I'm sure Jordan appreciated her efforts as well. He even waited at the door for her arrival the next day! If you are going out of town, and need someone to take care of you pet. I highly recommend Kami's services. Happy Holidays!”
About: Hi, I'm Sarah! I'm a school teacher looking to spend my summer looking after pets. I have experience working with all types of dogs as I grew up in a home with three pugs with big personalities. I also have experience working with bigger dogs, senior/disabled dogs, and cat sitting. I would do anything for my dogs, so I would do anything for yours too. As a teacher, I'm free during the day to help your pet so they feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you're away. For active pets, I love going on walks! For easygoing and older pets , I'm happy to be someone to watch over them. :) My #1 priority is to keep your pets happy and healthy while you are away! I'll be sure to send you frequent updates on how your pet is doing. Never hesitate to ask me any questions. Feel free to let me know your pets regular schedule, so I can maximize your pets comfort.
“Stephanie was fantastic with our dog. Her messages are detailed and she is very responsive. Our dog was having some issues with her paws and she took great care of her. I highly recommend Stephanie.”
About: I love animals and care about them more than anyone! I have had pets my whole life and I have become very good at reading dog body language as I have had moderately aggressive dogs in the past. Over the summer I was a nanny in charge of 2 young children, 2 large dogs and 1 cat. In the past I have been in charge of dispensing oral medication to multiple dogs on multiple different jobs, as well as walking dogs and playing with them and basic things of that nature. I am also good with cats and care deeply for them as well! I am currently a full time student but my schedule is fairly open! I would be available constantly after 4:30 every day and am able to check in multiple times prior to that throughout the day. I am usually free on the weekends as well as weeknights. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash or I am happy to watch them while they play if there is a fenced in yard! I also am happy to follow whatever feeding schedule the animals are used to and I would obviously always make sure their water bowls are full! Every dog is a little different but I am usually very good at being to tell when a dog has to go outside or I will learn to recognize the signs very quickly! I would also just let them outside whenever they wake up from a nap or anything like that.
About: I’m a babysitter and have been for 10 years, so not only do I know how to care for a dog, I know how to care for a human. As a college student I constantly miss my dogs at home, and will find joy in any excuse to give a dog attention. I’ve had dogs my entire life. As a college student I am happy to spend the night at places near my school. During weekdays though, I will not always be there. I will and can visit between classes and give your dog all the love in the world in the afternoon or evening after class :) I will make sure your dogs get to keep the routine they have when their family is home the best I can. I love to watch a show or do homework near the dog so I can be available for snuggles. More than happy to take dogs on daily walks, I love the excuse to get outside and get to know your dog!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always been told I have a “way with animals.” I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs before. Whether it’s a tiny tea cup dog or a large lab with more energy that they can contain, I’ve seen it all. I’m currently a senior in high school and play club volleyball. I have a part time job but am looking to gain more experience before college. Being a pet sitter and walking fits great for me since it’s a flexible schedule. I already take care of my own dog and cat at home and would love to add more pets to that list. As an athlete I am able to match your pets energy. I’m able to run around with them and throw their toys for as long as they may need it. I’m always down to explore new places on walks in any weather.
“Vivien was awesome. I have 3 dogs. One of them is older with anxiety, a puppy and a 3 yr old. All 3 of my dogs loved her. Vivien administered medication to my senior dog. She cleaned up after the puppy and made sure my 3 yr old got plenty of attention. My dogs aren't used to being left alone. But, Vivien took care of everything. I was able to relax while I was on vacation. I would definitely request her service again. Vivien was perfect.”
“Amelia was awesome. Very communicative and even my shyest came out for her eventually. She even moved some of my plants to a different room at my request because the cats were playing with them. Will definitely use her in the future next time I’m away!”
“We’re sorry free anytime we book Teagan to come take care of Teemu, sent her profile to our friends we were with who were jealous we had someone to take care of our dog. Teagan goes out of her way to make sure our dog is taken care of. Trustworthy, reliable, communicative, and definitely cares about our animals when we’re away.”
“Celene was an absolute life saver. My dog sitter cancelled a few days before my vacation and I was very worried about not just finding someone, but someone that my dogs would enjoy being with. As soon as I met her and my dogs welcomed her I could tell they were in good hands. She was very informative with her 3 visits a day and sent pictures as well as updated if something seemed off with them or if they were extra happy to see her. I truly appreciate her more than words can explain and I’m so deeply grateful that my fur babies were well taken care of and appreciated. Thank you again Celene.”
About: I have owned a dog since I could remember, every time I see a dog, my head goes out the window because I am such a dog lover. I will not only treat your dog like a pet, but like a member of the family, as he/she is a member. I will walk your dog, feed, in-home visits, etc. It would be an honor to be able to be around dogs all day. I would love the opportunity to keep your fur babies safe, healthy and having fun throughout the day. I have plenty of experience raising a dog in the family and I will treat your dog like my own family dog. You can ensure that you can put your fur babies trust in me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 537 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sugar Ridge. 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 Sugar Ridge. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
