“Andrea did an outstanding job taking care of our cat during our vacation. She communicated regularly and provided frequent updates and pictures too! I know our kitty was well cared for and given lots of love and attention. We highly recommend Andrea!”
“We usually use a family member to take care of our cats. Due to a scheduling conflict we needed outside help. Sara did a great job! She was great at sending several photos of my happy cats. Sara was even able to see and get a photo of my super scared cat (Odie) that no ever sees, that just doesn't happen. We asked Sara to stay for an hour to love on them so they would not feel so abandoned. She did just that and we have pictures showing how our needy/affectionate cat (Loki) just crawled all over her. The area around the food and water bowl was left clean and tidy. The liter box was cleaned regularly. Thank you for attention to detail. If they could talk I am sure they would ask for Sara again by name.”
“Wynn is great with our dog, even took him on a walk in these sub-artic temperatures! I know he is always well taken care of when Wynn stops in for a mid-day visit.”
About: I've always been a dog lover & have had dogs since childhood. My latest baby is a doxie-chi mix (11 lbs) and she is the sweetest girl who brings me much joy! My husband has a cattle dog mix (30 lbs) who is a big teddy bear too! We walk them everyday, take time to play & of course snuggles! I truly believe dogs (& ALL animals) deserve respect & exceptional care, & I will treat your fur baby with the utmost love & care! I enjoy the different personalities of dogs and really get a kick out of watching them; they make my heart smile!! When watching your pet, I will review with you a list of questions in order to make sure I know your fur baby & their schedule, likes & dislikes. Being a dog owner already and having a routine with my little one, taking care of other fur babies just comes naturally to me :-) I work part-time during the week; I leave the house at 8:10am, and i’m home by 2pm, & Home all weekend! I am available for dog walks as well as boarding every day of the week. We have a large fenced in yard, which is a great size for running & playing. There is also a covered patio. Although we do not use them often, we do have a couple crates for our dogs if needed which we call their “night-night bed” but at night Hazel sleeps in the bed with us (& thinks she owns the bed! LOL) and Rocky is in his plush bed right beside us. Your fur baby is welcome to sleep with us, in a doggie bed next to us, or a crate; whatever you prefer! I have an extra crate in case your furbaby would like to have a little nap there instead of on the couch or a dog bed. We live in a great neighborhood with new families & older families, and everyone is very friendly. We have many dogs in the neighborhood & my girl loves to go on walks to say hello to everyone.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years and have always loved getting to know their unique personalities and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy giving pets the attention, comfort, exercise, and companionship they need. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a work-from-home mom, pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for visits, walks, feedings, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I love having pets as part of my routine and enjoy making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their families are away. I care for every pet with patience, love, and attention to their individual routine. In my home, pets have access to an unfenced yard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of room to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep their pet comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Me and my partner were so grateful for having Laura take care of our cats, mostly because we were at ease knowing they were safe and cared for in her hands. Would recommend, and will be booking with her firm now on.”
“Jessica was great with my dog and cat...super kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. She sent thoughtful updates and made everything easy while I was away. Came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pets. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life! I grew up surrounded by dogs, and my mom owned a pet-sitting business, so caring for other people’s pets was a big part of my childhood. I helped care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including walking, feeding, playtime, and administering medications as instructed. I’ve also owned dogs of my own since I was 22 and currently have an English Bulldog and a Dachshund mix. During the week, I’m a pediatric physical therapist and mom of three boys. Mondays are my day off, and I decided I couldn’t think of a better way to spend some of that time than getting outside, staying active, and hanging out with dogs! My healthcare background has made me dependable, attentive to detail, comfortable following specific instructions, and very aware of safety. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and individual needs. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work as a pediatric physical therapist Tuesday through Friday, which leaves my Mondays open. I’m looking forward to spending my day off doing something I genuinely enjoy—getting outside, staying active, and spending time with dogs! I have flexibility throughout the day on Mondays for walks and drop-in visits, making it easy for me to give each pup plenty of time, attention, and care without feeling rushed. I care for every dog in their home as if they were my own. I know dogs are happiest and most comfortable when their normal routine is maintained, so I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and safety is always a priority. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while you’re away, and I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can feel confident knowing they’re happy and well cared for.
About: I am a huge animal lover! I have 10+ years of paid experience pet-sitting, house-sitting, and babysitting! I have been a regular sitter for all types of breeds, ages, and behaviors. I have regular experience with pit bulls, chihuahuas, Great Pyrenees, Great Danes, puppies & seniors! I have recently moved to Cincinnati and looking to build a new client base! I love walks, play time, & cuddles! I have experience in light training, medication, and socialization skills. During drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I will gladly help with any additional training needed. I always provide updates and photos, and can ensure you will receive prompt and detailed responses. I am currently working part-time, and my schedule is very open and flexible. With being new to Cincinnati, my goal is to find regular clients in need of a dog-sitter & walker, as well as helping out those who are needing a one-time or occasional helper. I have lots of reliable & trusted references that show my level of honesty, respect of privacy, and cleanliness for client home sitting. I am punctual, detail-oriented, and ready to work with the routine you and your pet have.
“We love having Kristina take care of our furry babes. She always spends extra time, sends lots of videos and photos. She is truly a gem. Plus I think the boys enjoy her visits. ;)”
About: Ive had dogs my whole life and would love to meet your pet if you need extra help. I currently have 3 medium/large dogs and am comfortable with any size dog. I have a flexible job, so on days that I am available I will not have any restrictions. I can be very flexible with scheduling. I would love to take your dog(s) on any length walk or spend as much time as you'd like with your pet. I currently have 3 medium/large dogs and am comfortable with any size dog.
“Hayleigh was absolutely incredible during her check‑in visits with Luna and Charles over the past couple weeks. Her communication was flawless—transparent, detailed, and consistent every single day. I always knew exactly how the pups were doing, and it was clear they adored her. She cared for them as if they were her own, and that peace of mind is priceless. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter! Very thorough and even took the time to bond and play with our timid cat! Sent tons of photos and videos letting us know when/if our cat was eating/drinking/playing.”
About: Aloha! I want to help you and your family member (dog/pets) feel less stressed about being away from each other! I noticed that every time I used a kennel service for our fur baby, our dog would get so scared, sick, stress shed, nervous/anxiety, she would not eat, different times she caught kennel cough (which meant more vet bills), and our dog was definitely unhappy with the small kennel space surrounded by other upset loud barking pups/dogs/animals! I believe I can help your dog/pet feel loved, safe, comfortable, fed, clean, exercised, washed (optional), fun/waggy tails, like our family when you are away. My name is Michelle. I love animals! We have a small dog, bunny and fish! I used to volunteer at SPCA and Paw-sitive (Non profit, walk, groom, and feed stray dogs until they got adopted). I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling my 3 yr old. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before petting, and to be aware around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries , gym, or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too, if you like. Your dog/cat/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals on and off for about 34 years) …cared for puppies, adults and senior dogs such as pit bulls, Pekingese, Shih Tzu , mini pincher Dobermans ,then fostered a German Shepard, a black pup Labradors, also taken cared of a Golden Retrievers, a Pitbull, poodles, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). (Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around . I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need) Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-9 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, break, lunch, then around 3-4pm, around/after dinner time, and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/cat/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, clean, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)! Even while I read to my kids, homeschool or while we watch tv at night. And my dog will be gated, separated, away from your dog/pet when we are out and when requested. I left my 911 emergency call taking position to be a stay at home mother. I would love to care for, walk, play, cuddle with your dog and take your dog to the park with us too ! *** ONLY DOGS UNDER 35lbs at this time. Thank you*** I have a lot of room, space, toys, pillows, blankets for your pup/dog/cat/pet (separated away from our dog), open concept spacious house, and animal-friendly neighborhood. I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them ***Off leash free to run roam inside the house ***! Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was younger and all through college, and now I have my own 1.5 year-old golden who is truly my pride and joy. I currently work part-time as a teacher and am available for dog walks after 2 PM on weekdays. I am happy to do check ins or walks! 🐾 I have a fully fenced-in yard with a mini dog park right in my backyard—perfect for safe playtime and zoomies! 🐾 My golden absolutely loves walks and cuddles, and I make sure every pup I care for gets plenty of both. 💛
“Victoria watched our older cat, Lucky, while we were on vacation. She was highly communicative, very caring, and sent great photos of a cat that’s pretty shy. I’d highly recommend her. We came home to a very happy kitty!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Summerside
Tori was excellent dropping in for our three high maintenance pups this week! She did a meet and greet prior and they all loved on her immediately, and I got plenty of pics through each visit of more love and cuddles. She was also so patient and understanding with a few curve balls, which I sincerely appreciated (especially during a work trip when it's so hard to be away!) Definitely asking Tori back - she was amazing to our babies and with communicating throughout!
Brianna was so good with my dogs! She played with them and loved on they as if they were her own. I have Australian Shepherds and they can be very enthusiastic and energetic, she worked well with their temperament. She was very responsive and accommodating and would love to have her help us out again!
She always does an incredible job and has usually even stayed a little extra time for drop ins which is just above and beyond. I know she makes sure each cat gets attention according to their own personality and what they like, and she always remembers their quirks! She is super flexible when I’ve had a last minute change or weird circumstance and I do appreciate her.
This is the second/third time we book Daniela and I would 1000% recommend. The peace I feel knowing she is looking after Carlota is amazing. I receive cute photos and a report card with all the details of the visit, she is kind with Carlota, I can tell for how much joy Carlota shows when Daniela comes in. I will book her again without a second thought.
Corey was great with Rosie! Rosie is an indoor/outdoor cat and took advantage of her nice sitter by sneaking out for a little adventure in the yard. 😅 Corey was very accommodating and made an extra unscheduled stop to make sure Rosie was safely back inside before a storm rolled in. I really appreciated the extra care and would definitely recommend her!
Ava was amazing! We had a difficult ask of 3x a day medication ranging from 6am to 10pm on short notice and she not only did that but added an extra visit when our travel plans changed and lingered for snuggles with our senior cat. I highly recommend Ava and will definitely use her moving forward.
Our dog Holly just loved seeing Margo … she was reliable and so kind to play with her and make sure she got to go potty mid day while my wife and I worked. We will definitely be calling on Margo again to help us out. You won’t find a nicer person to work with. Thanks Margo you deserve this 5 star review.
Sarah was able to keep my cats entertained during her visit. She provided great care in changing water and scooping litter. She even added extra litter to the box without being asked and topped off the automatic feeders. She was attentive and caring. This was my second time booking her and it won't be my last! Thank you Sarah.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Summerside is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $24 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 2,395 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Summerside. 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 Summerside. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
