Zuri communicated about how our pup was doing. She gave a detailed report of all that they did and even sent photos. Her visit put us at ease and allowed us to be away for the day. Our pup is a high energy girl, but Zuri got along well with her!

Elain arrived promptly for the bathing and grooming appointment for my dog. She was very calm, confident, comfortable and and efficient with the bathing and blow dry. I will definitely continue to have her come regularly to bath and groom my long haired dogs. Highly recommended!

About: Since growing up, I have always lived in a household with at least one pet. Various different types of dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and I also had a pet crab I cared for when I was younger. As I grew older I continuously learned to give them care and love, and now my brother often asks me to care for his cat, and others rely on me to care for the animals while on vacation. My schedule is mainly flexible to take care of your furry ones. I am a college student, and starting in August. I will still have plenty of time to take care of pets during the college season as well! I make sure it’s a clean, and a comfortable environment for the animal(s). They are always fed, hydrated, given affection, looked after, and the environment they are in is clean and safe!

Josie was a absolute help during our trip out of town. This is first time using this app in years and was a bit apprehensive ,but Josie demonstrated a strong line of communication and our family started to feel better about choosing her. Ultimately her punctuality, attention to detail and ability to follow instructions as requested easily relinquished our concerns of trusting a stranger with our fur babies. We received photos during the visit and watched through our cameras,both Potata and núðla were having a blast like they and Josie have been long forgotten separated friends . We are confident if you have any apprehension about your choice of animal care. You won't be dissatisfied with Josie's service .

About: I’ve had large and small dogs in my house all my life so i’ve been comfortable taking care of neighbor’s dogs and houses for any period of time. I’m comfortable with large and small breeds and many different energy level requirements. I had been previously nannying but now have a full schedule for pet care needs! Weekdays and weekends all the same, days or times i’m not available will be updated as soon as possible. Fenced in yard or not the animals will have plenty of potty breaks and walks. During my days I will have errands and events but can spend plenty of downtime and cuddle with the pets. I have no problem crating them when gone if needed and can stay on schedule with given feeding times.

About: I’m an almost empty nester who truly loves animals and am looking to fill my time doing something meaningful. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide house sitting, dog walking or drop-in visits as needed. I grew up surrounded by animals and have experience caring for cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, and even goats. Because of that background, I’m comfortable with both small and large animals and understand that each one has its own personality and needs. I’m also a former travel club ball mom, so I completely understand how stressful it can be to make arrangements for your pets and home while you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone reliable, communicative, and trustworthy taking care of your home and/or pets. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I can also bring in mail, bring garage to the curb and water plants while you are away. I’m able to offer in-home pet and house sitting or flexible drop-in visits while keeping pets on their normal routines and not left alone for long periods of time. I can care for smaller caged pets in my home but will care for dogs, cats etc in your home because I have pets of my own.

We have been taking our large doodle to Amber since we moved to South Dakota from out of town. Our pup always comes home exhausted, a certain sign at a good time! We love Amber and her family, they treat our dog like he’s theirs. Thank you so much Amber! See you next time!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over five years and genuinely love spending time with animals of all ages and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, administer medications when needed, and provide lots of love and attention while they’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with unique routines. My background in healthcare has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, so you can trust that your pet will be safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and plenty of affection. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays with advance notice. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection while keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions exactly as provided. I’ll keep your home clean and secure, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family.

Miss Madison is amazing! She took such great care of both my babies. She boarded my senior dog and did drop in visits on my cat. Madison also has a senior dog so it was nice for him to have a companion he could keep up with! She sent lots of pictures and updates during my trip that gave me the warm and fuzzies that my animals were in great care. I plan to book with her again soon! Thank you again Miss Madison!

About: We love dogs! Added to our family over the years are dogs, birds, rats, guinea pigs and even chickens. Currently we have two fur babies that are calm and have many dog friends that come to visit. My husband, myself and our children play and walk our dogs everyday. We have watched family members dogs/chickens for years and welcome the opportunity to help other pets too. Our yard is large and fenced in (four foot fence). Your pet will be loved well! Our work schedule has our pets home kenneled for five hours daily. We come home and let them out during that time frame. During the summer we are home all day. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if needed. I am comfortable with medications and schedules that are important to you. I look forward to meeting your family members!

I was in need of a new sitter for my cat and I found Emma! She was very responsive to my requests for bookings. She even did a meet and greet with Tux and I which was very reassuring. I had a last minute change in plans and Emma was able to be flexible with her schedule. Tux and I already have our next booking set up with her.

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I have dealt with mean, grumpy, energetic, smart, lazy and all sorts of dogs. I am patient, loving and caring for each dog. I have family and friends who have relied on me to feed, walk, bath, watch and care for their dogs while away. We have two dogs (a golden and an English Springer spaniel) in our house. They are 10 and 8. Older and would love some dogs to visit and remind them of their younger days. 🖤 I work from home Thursday and Fridays. I do work 7am to 330 am cst Monday through Wed. We have a 12 year old who also loves to give extra cuddles, pets and play times with the dogs around his school schedule. We do have one dog who loves to play. I have a fenced in yard, water dishes throughout the house and yard, a kiddie pool for dogs to play in on warmer days, leashes, treats, and more for your pet to truly feel at home!

She sent updates & pictures & was professional & prompt! She even brought our packages inside!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Tea on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 340 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tea. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tea stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Tea. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
