About: Whether it's fun in the sun or staying cozy, I've loved to care for dogs since I was a kid, always living with big energetic dogs prepared me for any kind of dog! I love to see them happy and excited to play! I've enjoyed dogsitting/dogwalking for the past couple of years and would love to meet new friends! I work part-time remotely, so I have a lot of free time! I am available at any time of day every day except for Tuesdays! I have a fur baby who does best in her routine and loves her play time. I will attentively add some fun to your dog's personal routine while still caring for the important and safe details.

“Sarah did a great job taking care of my two cats. Poor anxious Tinkerbell hid from her the whole time. Bella warmed up to her so Sarah was able to make her really happy with a good brushing. I am going on vacation in the spring and hope Sarah will be available to take care of them then too.”
“Kat has been wonderful and so helpful! I get anxious leaving my cat for more than a couple days, but Kat has done such a great job and left such detailed reports on the visits she made. Thank you again!!”
About: I have grown up with and been around dogs my whole life! My Portuguese water dog used to be high energy, so I’m definitely used to being around other active dogs as well. I have dog sat for friends and family for years and can handle puppies too! Senior Care- I grew up with a 16 year old Britney spaniel, who required daily vitamin administration and extra gentle love, as well as my current pup being 10 currently. • Being a cat owner myself, I understand most cats’ mannerisms and can provide the appropriate care based on individual needs! I am available to provide walks and at-home check ins whenever needed! I am game for any type of walk, weather permitting. Don't be shy about asking for specifics when it comes to your pets! When taking care of your pets, their happiness becomes my top priority. Affection, praise, and treats (if allowed) are in store for their visits along with any specific instructions provided.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - The Village
Cassidy was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but she made the entire experience stress free. She showed up on schedule every day, spent quality time with our cats, and sent plenty of updates and photos while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with Cassidy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Kinley was very attentive to my dog as well as the needs I had for my dog while being away. She is punctual and so sweet! We will book her every time we can. Kinley helped relieve any stress about leaving my dog. Super happy with how my first experience with Rover went, thanks to Kinley :)
Renata is the best cat sitter we have had! Upon meeting her, you immediately recognize that Ren is a very kind and sensitive person, and we believe these traits were perceived by our cats. One is incredibly shy and afraid of everything, but Renata was able to send photos of her interactions with Mollie on the first day which is quite an accomplishment. Ren was very thorough in our first meeting on learning as much as she could about their behaviors. We appreciated the daily updates and photos she posted. She also alerted us to a possible health issue when she noticed that one of the kitties was sneezing a little bit on her visit. We said that it happened from time to time and we weren’t concerned but it was very reassuring that she was observing them so closely. We highly recommend Renata and will certainly use her again.
I could not possibly say enough nice things about our walk with Emerson. I feel like he has an excellent grasp of body language and timing which really makes the process of walking a dog much safer and more fun. He was also very kind which is so important when trusting someone with my dog. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in The Village on Rover is $19.98 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 1,429 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across The Village. 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 The Village 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 The Village. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
