“Cassondra has been doing an amazing job with my 10-week old Corgi! Getting a new job and a new puppy at the same time was not on my bingo card and I found myself unsure how to manage all this. Enter Cassondra who has been a lifesaver. She visits twice a day to let Juniper outside and plays with her. She’s helped to clean up a couple accidents… because, that’s what happens with puppies. I don’t know what I would do without her. I appreciate her communication and pictures she sends too!”
“Alex was awesome with our chocolate lab Trigger! She communicates great, cares for Trig so well and Trigger absolutely loves her! She did drop ins while I was on vacation and we couldn’t trust her more. We 100% recommend Alex and will definitely be using her again!”
“We never have to worry about our furbaby when Emily takes care of her! She is reliable, on time, and gives our doggie playtime and sends us pics! It's just so nice not to have to worry while we are away.”
“We have booked several times for drop ins and Whitney is the only person we trust with our fur babies and our home. Every time we leave town, one of the first things we do is book her. She is so great with our babies, works with us, great communication and always keeps us in the loop. She doesn’t just do the bare minimum when she drops by, she spends time with the animals and goes above and beyond. Seriously takes so much stress from leaving home and we look forward to booking next time!”

My owns dogs have an invisible, electric fence. I do not typically offer day care or boarding at my own house.
About: Hello! I've had and cared for dogs and cats since I was a kid. I am a sucker for any 4 legged friend. I will treat your pet as if it were my own. I'm currently off work for the summer until school starts again so I have a pretty open schedule. Let's connect and see what works! Thanks! I love taking dogs for a long walk or jog to burn off that energy. If you don't have a yard I can bring them out to the dog park or my yard for some fetch or tug of war!
“This is the second time Lauren came to visit my cats while I was out of town. She still had all the notes from last time 3 cats all with special diets. I felt good knowing they would be well taken care of. Thanks Lauren!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby, training them or at least trying to since i was a bossy toddler. I love animals and have worked at doggy day cares in the past! I have two of my own dogs and cats that I love with my whole heart. i am very patient, i am great at training and love to run with dogs or snuggle with cats. I am currently a freshman at UC San Diego in La jolla. I no longer have a car but would very willing to take public transport or walk/run to see some adorable animals. My weekend mornings are very open and my afternoons on mon wed thursday tend to be quite free as well! I am very good at calming dogs down, and making sure I do not startle them. I would be happy to kennel/karate a dog if needed, but also sit in the backyard to watch over them for however long. Safety of pets is the number one priority on my list right next to them being hugged and appreciated.
About: I was raised with dogs and had them around ever since. I have been volunteering at multiple shelter/rescue organizations for several years and have extensive experience with all sizes, breeds and dispositions. I have been the lead trainer at a shelter with troubled dogs and look forward to meeting your family member soon! I work 4 AM - Noon, Sunday-Thursday and am available anytime after work. I do still try and volunteer on my days off but am flexible! I have a love for all animals but dogs especially, and my experience has taught me that dogs recognize this in people. Whatever your needs are I can accommodate, whether that be just a walk, playing, training or just hanging around and loving!
About: I have owned a dog for the last 15 years and have taken care of all ages/types of dogs for family and friends! I am home during the week and on weekends. I have a 4 year old yellow lab who is extremely friendly with other dogs and is used to being around them. I have an acre fenced in yard in town with lots of room for the dogs to run around safe. We have the summers off and are very flexible during the week. We are also available most every weekend for weekend stays or week long stays. We have a large fenced (One acre) in yard and a four year old yellow lab named Earl who loves to run around. Our yard is very dog friendly!
About: I’ve had the privilege of growing up with dogs! Whether it be friends or family, I was always offering walks, baths, or even long hikes. I have experience with all stages of life! My current dog was a puppy when we got him, so puppies are my jam! My previous dog had varying health issues, so I have experience with older dogs that may need a little more help than others. I've got a healthy amount of experience with all different types of dogs. Regardless of their size, I assure you that the dogs in my care will have a blast no matter what we do. I’m a college student at the University of Minnesota Duluth, so I have lots of time to get out and about with your pups! I’d love to have more companions to walk with me. Since I am not offering in-home service, as I am a college student living with other students, I hope you can find the provider you need!
“This experience has been just phenomenal! Donna was very patient with my girls and her daily checkin was what I waited for every day I was away! What a pleasure to find a wonderful service that does exactly what they say they'll do! Thanks again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vermillion
Highly recommend Heather & Adam for stress-free pet care! Heather and Adam were absolutely fantastic with our sweet Mini Australian Shepherd, Eva, during our trip to South America (December 20, 2025 – January 6, 2026). We booked daily 30-minute drop-in visits, and they exceeded our expectations every single day. They reliably checked on Eva once a day, cleaned her tray, refreshed her food and water bowls, and spent quality time playing with her in our backyard to keep her happy and exercised. They were also extremely responsible about home security—always double-checking that everything was locked up before leaving. Best of all, they sent us daily photos and notes updating us on how Eva was doing, which gave us incredible peace of mind while we were halfway across the world. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a house in perfect order. As first-time Rover users for an extended international trip, we were a bit nervous leaving Eva behind, but Heather and Adam's professionalism and genuine love for dogs put us completely at ease. They're dependable, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. If you're in the Middleburg or Orange Park area and need trustworthy drop-in care, look no further—book Heather & Adam with confidence! We'd happily use them again and recommend them to anyone.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Vermillion
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 4,720 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Vermillion. 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 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 Vermillion. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
