“Laurel is a real pro! She took really amazing care of my pets while we were away for the holidays. She really went above and beyond! I can’t wait to book with her again in the future!”
About: I have always had all kinds of dogs around me in my family since I was very young and have had lots of experience handling reactive dogs I am a college student and I work additional jobs outside of pet sitting but I do my best to remain flexible for clients and their pet’s needs. With how busy my schedule gets with balancing school and work I do request at least 48 hours notice especially for new clients as I always do meet and greets beforehand. Requests made less than 48 hours in advance I will charge 1.5x my normal rates (holiday rates for holidays). For repeat clients I will only charge a late fee for less than 24 hours notice. I have a very friendly puppy that will happily play all day long with any dog and am happy to do any crate training that a dog needs
“Max was great! We felt at ease knowing our fur babies were in good hands while we were away. He exceeded our expectations and his love for animals is palpable 🥰 we will definitely rebook!”
“Emily is a gem. She has watched our 3 cats (1 a diabetic who requires insulin twice a day) several times and has always done a terrific job. Our last trip, Emily visited faithfully despite having to blaze a trail to the house following a raging snowstorm. I cannot praise her enough.”
“Tracie, thank you so much! We came home to a neat and clean home and you took such good care of Jinx. Thank you for going above and beyond! I hope we can rely on your again in the future!”
“As a first time puppy owner, finding the right person to watch your fur baby is nerve wrecking. Riley was amazing!! She provided in-home daycare for our pup and kept up with his routine. She sent pics and videos of him and he seemed so happy. I’ll definitely be booking her again to watch or furry friend.”
“Jason was very punctual and responsible with taking care of our two cats. He always sent us pictures and this was reassuring as we were so far away! We will definitely be using Jason again!”
“We loved having Brittany watch our kitties. We'd just moved to Maryland when a family emergency took us away quickly. She agreed to take care of our kitties on short notice. She was very thorough and detailed and loving to our precious kitties. We will definitely use her again!”
“Nicole took great care of my kitties while I was away out of the country. She was super responsive and consistent and I was comfortable that they were in good hands. She appreciated their individual personalities and sent great daily updates and pictures. I would not hesitate to ask Nicole to watch my animals or home next trip.”
“Amazing!!!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Lauren! She was so kind and attentive, and it was clear she genuinely cared for our cat. We appreciated the updates and photos—it really put us at ease while we were away.😊 I’d absolutely recommend Lauren’s services to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter. 10/10!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was in high school. I have friends and neighbors that rely on me to take care of their pets. I've also taken care of animals other then cats and dogs. I've done rabbits and Guinea pigs. I feed, give baths, give medications and walks. I can currently do this full time. If you ask me to do a 24 hour stay. I am available for that as well. I just need to know at least 4 days ahead of time. My SO travels for work. And I would need to fit my dog into that schedule. Just know I will have other pets to take care while staying at your home. And will not be there 24/7. I will be staying at your house on my breaks and overnight if requested. We do not have a fenced in backyard. But we do take him on several walks a day. Regardless of the weather. He is unbothered by it.
“Olivia is an absolute gem! I’m SO lucky she was available, last minute to take care of my two babies! I was in town on vacation but got invited to Desert Hot Springs for the day and didn’t know what to do with the pups! Olivia came by twice, played with them and took them for walks and most of all gave me peace of mind 💖! She sent pics and was so sweet and helpful! I will DEFINITELY rebook next time in town (which is often, coming from SF)!”
“Margaret was wonderful! She visited us to meet Riley and learn her routine before we officially booked her. She kept us up-to-date on her visits and I could tell Riley took to her so easily. I felt so comfortable getting away and knowing our pup was happy and taken care of. I will definitely book Margaret again!”
“Jenna did an excellent job caring for our 3 fur babies while we were on an extended vacation! She was punctual, provided them so much love and play, and followed feeding and cleaning directions to a T! We were so comfortable having her in our home and entrusting the care of our babies to her. She even was kind enough to bring in our mail and to clean up an unexpected accident so well that we couldn't see any sign of it. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

Kim was an absolute pleasure, very thoughtful and reliable with coordinating taking care of our 2 cats while we were away! She took the time to make sure she understood all the cat's needs and their personalities so she could best play and love on em' as if we were never gone! Our cats were so comfortable and trusting with her immediately. We will definitely be hoping to have Kim again if ever we need a cat sitter in the future!
Carly continues to go above and beyond, whether it's a drop by visit or a house sitting. She is kind & considerate, compassionate & caring with the pets, has integrity and always leaves the house clean. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your critters, whatever they may be.
Jaime is a wonderful, caring pet sitter! We really believe she is a cat whisperer! Not just because she is so attentive to our 3 rescue cats, but we were amazed our cat Fearless who suffers from PTSD actually came out (he usually hides from everyone) and she was able to pet him and give him pet treats! Even our skittish cat Rudy let her pet him. Our siamese Louie, who loves everybody, languished in her attention. The pictures we recieved from Jaimee while she did her drop ins and her texts and communications with us made us feel happy and relaxed that we left our boys in good hands and could enjoy our time away. But the response our kitties had towards her truly amazed us. She really has a way with cats for sure! This was our first time using Rover and it did not disappoint! We have found our pet sitter, Jaime and have started to plan our next trip. Thank you Rover and we are so grateful for Jaime!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Upperco on Rover is $29.42 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,137 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Upperco. 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 Upperco 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 Upperco. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
