“Emma has stayed in our home with our girls and was wonderful! We made a last minute request for her to drop in, feed the girls and hang out with them for a bit while we were at a concert. She dropped in on time, gave us updates and sent pictures. Emma is trustworthy and dependable!”
“She took great care of my dogs and I really appreciate her coming all the way out to my house in the country to check on them. It helped me a lot! Will definitely use her again when needed!”
“Laura took great care of our two senior pups, while we were away for the weekend! She was very responsive during booking, and she sent us great pictures and updates during drop ins. We felt at ease on our trip, knowing our dogs were in good hands!”
“I'm so grateful for Jade and her help with my cat while I was away on a trip. She's responsive and understanding of my cat's unique needs and my concerns. I will definitely be booking her again for future trips away from home.”
About: I dont see it as a special skill but dogs generally just like me. I am the person in the park that random dogs walk up to. The person at the party that dogs sit with. I never fret about dog hair on my clothes. I am free most days. I am looking for creative ways to make some money. I also am an artists and spend time working on projects during the school day I am sure to follow any instructions given by the people to best care for a pet. I then would spend time just being with the pet to see how much or how little they need attention from me. Often times I walk dogs twice a day when pet sitting to alleviate anxiety.
“Shannon was beyond amazing. It was our first time using Rover and I have never felt so comfortable with someone at our house. She responded so quick, sent a ton of pictures and she even wiped our dogs paws from the muddy snow! I think our dog was actually bummed when it was us that came home and not Shannon. She gave her so much love and attention! We will definitely rebook her again.”
About: I’m known as the animal lover in my friend group because of how much I LOVE our fluffy friends. I’ve had a senior cat for 3 years and have cared for my various dog friends when I can. Whether your dog is the chill type or thinks they can out run me, I’m game! I have experience in working with elder animals that require specific care and am diligent in ensuring their health and safety. Just move here from NYC and excited to live in the place of dogs (cats still have my heart too don’t worry!) I am always ready to work with you to find a time that may work. Forethought is a big skill of mine and I make sure to ask all the questions I need in order to ensure that your fluffy fella is happy and healthy while with me!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love helping them stay happy, healthy, and safe. I've raised my own dogs for over 15 years—all from puppies—and have provided pet care for family and friends throughout that time. I've spent years learning canine body language, assessing behavior, and working alongside professional dog trainers. I have extensive experience with reactive dogs and understand how to safely and confidently meet their needs during walks and daily care. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, in training, a senior, or has special needs, I'm happy to adapt my care to what makes them feel most comfortable. While I'm not a veterinary professional, I worked in veterinary diagnostics for nearly 10 years, giving me a strong understanding of animal health and behavior. I'm comfortable administering medications to both dogs and cats, can provide basic first aid if needed, and have experience caring for senior pets and those with medical needs. One of my own dogs struggled with severe anxiety, and through patience, training, and consistency she grew into a calm, happy companion, giving me firsthand experience supporting dogs that need a little extra understanding. I currently offer walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own, following your routines closely so they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide dependable care for your pets. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting on both weekdays and weekends after 10:00 AM. I'll always communicate clearly about my availability and make every effort to accommodate your pet's routine whenever possible. I currently offer walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting in your home. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special routines or training. During walks, I prioritize your pet's safety by paying close attention to their body language, avoiding situations that may cause stress, and ensuring they're secure at all times. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Because I have a reactive dog at home, I don't offer boarding or doggy daycare. This allows me to give my full attention to your pet while they're comfortable in their own home.
About: Hi there! My name is Eddie and I'm the owner of a four-year-old Akita mix, Skyloh. He's mine and my fiancee's entire world, and I couldn't imagine my life without him! I began pet sitting and dog walking because of how much I enjoy spending time with animals. I take care of pets of all species, breeds, and ages. I’ve always had animals around in my life and pride myself for being able to easily bond with them. I guarantee I will take care of your pet as well as I take care of my own! I'm available Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for drop-in visits and dog walks. I work from home on a flexible schedule, so I can make anytime after 9 am work. I understand that inviting someone into your home is a big ask, and I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident having me there. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own by keeping things clean, being mindful of your space and belongings, and following any instructions or routines you’ve shared with me. Building trust with you is just as important to me as providing great care for your pet, and I’ll always do my best to make the experience feel easy and worry-free.
About: I've owned and cared for dogs my entire life, from small to large. I promise to treat your dog as if it were my own. I am retired and can easily meet your needs. I prefer repeat clients so I can develop relationships with your pets, which is important to your loved on. I have three dogs of my own, I cluding one who can be grouchy around strangers. My services are restricted to visits at your home.
About: I've spent a lot of my life taking care of animals, particularly cats. I have a Zoology degree and experience with developing commands and various training exercises as well as handling proper food intake and oral medicine intake. I am available every day, most of the day! It will vary per-day but as long as I have a two-day notice I should absolutely be available! I will be vigilant with your pets, making sure that they get enough attention and do not get into anything that they shouldn't. If there are any specific rules that you have in your home or for your pet I will make sure to follow them to ensure a safe and happy experience for your animals!
About: Throughout my childhood, I grew up with dogs. While I do not currently have a dog, I take care of my parents’ dog and three cats when they are out of town. I am also a cat mom to a lil kitten named Merlin. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your pets! Whether it’s taking them on walks, feeding them, or just hanging out with them while you are gone. I love animals so much, I decided to get a degree in the conservation of them! I am currently in between jobs meaning that I can care for your pets anytime! Whether you need me weekdays, weekends or even if you are going on a trip, I am very flexible! While I am not comfortable hosting pets in my home at this time with a kitten, I am more than happy to walk dogs, do day visits or pet sitting while you are gone on a trip.
“Emily ensured our pet had adequate love and time with a human while we were out of town. So happy to have someone so understanding and willing to give my animal love.”
“Chelsea did an amazing job. I was super nervous to leave my two kitties to fly to Europe but Chelsea did a wonderful job. Even with the 10 hours time difference she did a great job communicating and sending me pics of my cats. It made me feel much better about being so far away. I came back to happy kitties! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Lauren provided great communication while taking care of our dog. Lauren made an effort to build a genuine connection with her. Lauren even went the extra mile during her drop-ins to make sure she was calm and safe during an evening storm. We look forward to using Lauren’s help in the future!”

Stacey and Matthew are the perfect dog sitters we could have asked for. They are everything you'd want to watch over your fur baby! Our little guy was very well taken care of, they hung out and played with him and kept him clean. We could tell they genuinely cared for our little guy. They even kept our place tidy and picked up after our little guy's poop! We could tell our little guy loved them ☺️ They are such a lovely family! Highly recommend Stacey and Matthew! Thanks again, Stacey, Matthew & Ben!
Emma has stayed in our home with our girls and was wonderful! We made a last minute request for her to drop in, feed the girls and hang out with them for a bit while we were at a concert. She dropped in on time, gave us updates and sent pictures. Emma is trustworthy and dependable!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Timnath is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 2,642 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Timnath. 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 .
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 , 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 Timnath. On Rover:
- 91% 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
