About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends and family. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and will always send plenty of photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate my clients’ needs. I update my availability regularly and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, walks, and any special routines. I respect your home, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

“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: I’ve taken care of the dogs I have had since I can remember, and it has made me have a passion to care for animals. I have experience taking care of young dogs, older dogs, and some cats. I have trained my dog a little bit to do tricks, however I am not a professional at it lol! I also offer cleaning services for free on top of caring for your animals. I do this as a side job to help those who are in need of it, so I might not ALWAYS be available, but I try! 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 .”

“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!”

“Olivia was great with my kitties! She did three drop in visits and was on time, took lots of photos, and communicated with me throughout my trip. Will definitely rebook! Thanks Olivia!”


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.

I love getting to know their personalities. I am a freelance artist, my current schedule is pretty flexible. I open currently to new clients that are looking for drop in visits or walks. Since I have pets of my own, I am only open to walking and watching pets in their own home. I enjoy understanding animals and how to make them comfortable.

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 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.”

“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!”

We start with slow introductions and making sure everyone is comfortable. We also never leave the dogs together unattended. If we ever do need to step out for a minute, we make sure they are separated and in a safe place. We also make sure all dogs are leashed when outside. While most dogs stay close, we just like to make sure they don’t run off in an unfamiliar neighborhood.

“Chressie did a wonderful job checking in on our pups on Saturday and Sunday when we were gone for most of the day. Even though it was a last-minute request she was very flexible & gave several options for a meet & greet. She did great with all our quirky dogs. 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 August 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 August 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.
