“Candi is amazing. We have a GSD who is on immunotherapy for his allergies. Candi diligently followed the medicine protocol. During our time away, Loki exhibited signs of ear infections and irritation. She was prompt to contact us. We guided her to get the medication which she was kind enough to administer and clean his ear (not an easy task to do with a gsd) She also took Loki out on walks where she was attentive to keep him disciplined consistent to his training preventing him from walking ahead of her and correcting his behavior in response to distractions. In all, she is the next person who will take care of your pup just as well as you. I have engaged her services multiple times and full stars to her each time”
“Myah has been such a great fit for my pet care needs. She is professional, a great communicator and most importantly, my dog loves her! I would not hesitate to recommend her and will absolutely be booking with her for future pet care.”
“Sam was incredible. What was supposed to be a simple booking turned into my cat getting sick three days before my trip and needing medicine twice a day the entire time I was gone. Sam helped me feel at ease like my cats were in good hands the whole time, and was super communicative with everything. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“We’ve had Cassidy help us with our pups twice now. At the meet and greet, my dogs instantly loved her! My girl is usually shy and she ran up to her as if she’d known her forever, absolutely loved to see it! She was also super sweet and organized - she left us a packet of questions to ensure our dogs were cared for the best they could be! Her communication has also been awesome before, during, and after her visits! We’re grateful we found Cassidy and would recommend her!”
About: I'm a dog lover. I am back in New England after 10 years away and have reactivated my Rover account. At 14 years old, my sweet Boston Terrier died in 2023. While I no longer have my own dog, I work from home and am happy for the opportunity to care for yours. :-) Because I work from home, your dog is sure to receive extra love and attention. Your dog is a family member - I get it - and while you're away, you can be assured he/she is receiving care, companionship, and a comfortable safe place to play and lounge. Separation anxiety is real for dog owners too! ;-) To ease your mind, I'm happy to send pictures so you can see updates on your pup, happy and cared for. I want you to have peace of mind. My schedule is rather flexible. Your pet will have company and care as needed throughout the day. It's my pleasure to have their company as well. I live in a lovely waterside neighborhood -- a great place for long walks. Space for a crate and dog bed for your pup to feel at home.
“Lindsey was amazing with my senior dog. She did two drop-ins in one day and was always on time and communicated before arriving and after she left. She sent pictures of my dog and did a great job! Would definitely hire her again!!”

About: Ever since I was a child, I have always had a dog in my life in some capacity. I am very comfortable and very used to caring for the needs of a small dog. If you are looking for somebody who will create a unique care plan catered to your fur baby’s unique needs, look no further! I will be here to feed, water, bathe, play with, walk, and whatever else you may need your ideal pet sitter to do. I am comfortable with dogs 35 pounds and under. If you are ready to find the perfect caretaker for your sweet baby, reach out to me, and I look forward to meeting your pup! I am currently a stay at home mom with accessible childcare, which makes my schedule flexible and perfect to accommodate your needs. I am available all days except Wednesdays and Sundays. Allowing someone into your home to care for your fur babies requires a strong foundation of trust. Understanding this, I will sit down with you to create the perfect checklist of things you will need me to do for you. My goal is to help not only you but your kitty or pup to trust me to treat your home with the utmost respect, following any rules and boundaries you may have, while making sure to care for your pet the way a family member would. This includes gaining their trust to play at their pace, making sure their bowls are clean for the fresh food and water, cleaning up any messes they may have made including getting into the trash or using the bathroom in or out of the litter box, or giving your pup a bath at your request.
About: I've been great with dogs and cats and have taken care of them for years. I've spent my whole life around them, and they mean so much to me. My dog is my everything. I’m available for early walks and feeding schedule. I’m available to also walk your dog in the evening. To feed them and spend some time with them. I’ll make sure the litter box is clean and everything is in place. I will diligently follow all your instructions regarding your pet, ensuring that all their needs are met.

About: What sets me apart is that I really take the time to get to know each dog and what makes them happiest. I’ve worked with everything from wiggly puppies who need a little help with training to older dogs who just want a slow, peaceful walk and some extra TLC. I’m super patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether your pup wants to run, sniff, play, or just take it easy, I’ll make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly. I have tons of free time, so your pet gets my full attention and flexibility. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like a job it’s just a great part of my day. When I care for pets at your home, I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them. I stick to their usual feeding and walk times, give any meds they need, and just hang out to keep them company. I’m not perfect, but I’m always patient and caring, and I make sure to keep their space clean and safe. I’ll check in with you regularly so you know how they’re doing. If I’m watching pets at my place, I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax and plenty of attention. I’m pretty chill and try to keep things low-stress so they feel comfortable. Either way, I just want your pet to feel safe and cared for, even if I’m not perfect!
About: I have always been a go-to to dog and cat sit for friends and family that needed to know their fur babies would be safe. Whether it was for a check-in or staying over an extended period, the animals would be first priority.

Any specific care that your pet needs will be adhered to. I ensure that the pups will be under great supervision and kept entertained. Walks and anything else needed will be taken care of as well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Swansea is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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 November 2026, there are 3,315 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Swansea. 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 Swansea. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
