About: As a person whose significant other is terribly allergic to dogs it breaks my heart that I can't have one for my own. But that makes me the perfect "Doggy Auntie". The amount of friends and family that ask me to take care of their dogs while they are away is more than I can count of both hands. I love going for walks and hikes and having a dog with me is the best way to do it. I have a very set schedule but my job is very dog friendly so bringing them into the office with me is very easy, plus they get more snuggles from my coworkers. I understand that your pet is your family and they deserve to be treated as such. I want you to be able to enjoy vacation or your work day without having to worry about your family back home. I know every house hold is different so I'd rather have too much information than not enough information in regards to how you would like your pet's routine maintained.
“We appreciated the feedback on our pet as well as daily pictures that Karinna provided. We also appreciated Karinna getting our mail and ensuring that our trash collection was completed.”
“Rachel watched our two dogs for a weekend while we were away. She did drop in visits multiple times a day. Her visits were detailed with pictures and updates. She took them for walks and handled our reactive dog very well. They looked like they had a great time hanging with her and loved the attention she gave. Our dogs are pretty low maintenance (youthful enough). We had no issues, will probably book again sometime, and would recommend to others.”
About: I am certified in pet first aid and CPR, and am very serious when it comes to pet care, safety, and health. I have experience in pet care through all stages (puppy - senior), and complex medical cases. Each dog and cat is an individual with their own needs, wants, and traits that need to be fulfilled and noticed. BOARDING & DAYCARE: I LOVE pet care, and providing a safe, fun, and enriching environment. I understand how important it is to choose the right person to take care of your beloved dog or cat. My primary focus will be the safety of all pets in the house. I will also make sure you feel happy and comfortable that your pet is in my homeby going through all of the details before your pets stay, and updating you with pictures and videos! **Dogs MUST be fully potty trained** DROP IN VISITS: Playing, potty, feeding, cuddling, bathing... I will do whatever needs to be done to make sure your pet is both happy and safe! PLEASE NOTE: - I work full time. On Fridays, I get home around at 1:45pm. - I will accept boarding OR daycare. I cannot accommodate both arrangements on the same days. - If you have one dog and more than one cat, I will accept them all. I will have a private, separate room for your cats. - I would like as much notice as possible to set up the pet care arrangement! I have a fenced in yard and a female dog, Sophie, who is very friendly and playful! I will always monitor them and never leave them alone without supervision. Our cats are blocked off by door at the top of stairs (they'll stay on the second floor). My previous dog, Johnny, passed away in 2024 and throughout his life he experienced health issues that required daily oral medication (epilepsy and hypothyroidism, and during the last 6 months of his life he had Cushing's Disease). I am experienced in how complicated medication and health issues are in pets. I make sure our home is a calm environment filled with toys, playtime, cuddles, and mentally stimulating activities. My goal is to do what's best for the individual dog/cat and make them feel both safe and loved! If your pet needs their own private space, there is a private room that will be changed to fit the dog or cat's needs. The set up will include toys, their own items, and washable mats on the floor that will be washed/disinfected before use. ****To ensure the safety of all pets in the household, I need to see the most recent Vet paperwork showing your pet is up to date on vaccines and does not have a contractable health issue. ****Your pet MUST NOT be aggressive. Your dog MUST be fully potty trained.
“Megan was totally committed to the welfare of my dogs both physically and emotionally. She handled every task and instruction to the T. After seeing pictures and reading daily notes of our very happy dogs we felt confident that Megan was doing an excellent job. We have already booked her for another job. I know I'm a little over the top when it comes to my dogs but Megan was understanding and professional about everything.”
“Josh is outstanding. I highly recommend him. He communicated well, was efficient in taking care of all the tasks, and my cats were sitting in his lap by the end of his visits with them. he was exactly what I needed to put my mind at ease when leaving my two cats for two weeks!”
“Thank you so much for being patient w our Lily, Heather! We will definitely book again. You went above and beyond with communication and we couldn’t have asked for a better visit!”
“Renata was an unbelievable petsitter for our dog and cat! She got to know them so quickly, took outstanding care of them (I could see how happy they were with her in the pics and video she sent) and went above and beyond in every way possible, putting us at complete ease while we were away. I cannot recommend Renata highly enough, we feel so incredibly fortunate to have found her! We hope we never have to have anyone else care for our pets after such a great experience with Renata, she is simply THE BEST!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, RENATA!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years through both pet ownership and pet sitting. I currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever, so I’m comfortable with active, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of exercise, consistency, and routine. I’ve also cared for family members’ cats and have experience providing overnight care for dogs while owners are away. As a teacher, I’m dependable, organized, and attentive to details, and I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m a teacher and currently work summer school from 9:00 AM–1:00 PM on weekdays, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends if messaged. During the school year, I maintain a consistent schedule and am available before and after work for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever of my own. I always follow the routines and instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and crate training if needed. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Andrea is great! She communicated throughout the entire process. She kept me informed on how everything was going. She sent pictures showing her interaction with Snuggles. Although, she wasn’t booked to care for the cat, she notified me of his mischievous behavior. I will definitely book with Andrea again. Thank you Andrea!”
“Kristen is amazing with my pup and has been wonderful to work with. She is on time and ensures that any anxieties I have are lessened and has been flexible and accommodating to my schedule!”
“What a pleasure it was meeting Katie and working with her. On a last minute booking she was easy to work with and took care of our furbaby as if Nugget was her own. I Highly suggest you book her! You won't regret it!”
“Sarah is not only an amazing pet sitter but also an amazing person, super kind and genuine! We are so lucky to have found someone who loves our pet as much as we do! Sarah made sure onyx took the medication which is sometimes a task even we cannot accomplish. Onyx definitely enjoyed his time with Sarah and so did we!”
About: My entire life I have owned at least 3 pets. From foster cats, to my own cats, dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I am a pet person through and through. I have a range of ages of animals I’ve taken care of - from dogs in elderly stages to 2 week old kittens. I am currently working from home Mon,Wed, Thursday, Fri. I’m constantly taking quick walks around the block during the day to keep my energy up and get outside. We have already cat sat in our apartment and everything went smoothly. We ensure doors are closed and locked at all times so there is a 0% chance of escaping. I live in between two parks as well which are always full of dogs to play in.
“Eve was amazing when she looked after my cat! Prior to the session, she asked questions and made notes to ensure she didn’t forget anything. During my time away, she took great care of Grace - doing everything I asked and sending lots of photos/videos. Absolutely would book with her again!”
About: Hello pet parents! I find great fulfillment in caring for and nurturing your pets. Caring for pets also gives me a wonderful outlet to indulge my intense and immense love for dogs! While I might lack decades of experience working with our furry friends, I believe I more than make up for it with my enthusiasm for learning and affection for doggies! All I can promise is that you shall not regret working with me! I work from home remotely for my day job, which affords me plenty of spare time to spend with your fur babies! The nature of my job also enables me to take my furry friends out for a walk during working hours no problem. I am available for walks and drop in visits on all weekdays; for your dog boarding or house sitting needs, I am available seven days a week. I have a family member living with me who is retired and stays home full time, so there will be at least one responsible adult looking after your precious pet(s) at all times!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Megan did a great job with our cats while we were on vacation. Between having a picky eater and one who enjoys outdoor time she managed to give my cats everything they needed to feel cared for. Great attention was paid to their needs and I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!
Fruzsina was absolutely amazing with Ahmi! She sent detailed updates and photos after every visit, was so patient while Ahmi adjusted, and genuinely cared about making her feel comfortable. She paid close attention to Ahmi's behavior and kept us informed about everything. By the end of the week, Ahmi had really warmed up to her and was excited for their walks, which meant so much to us. It's clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. We felt completely at ease knowing Ahmi was in such caring hands. We would absolutely book with Fruzsina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and compassionate pet sitter!
We had a great experience with Julia. She was very accommodating and attentive to our dog. We could tell from the photographs that our dog felt comfortable with Julia. The dog seemed well cared for when we got home, and our house was just the way we left it. We would definitely work with Julia again knowing that we'll have peace of mind while the dog is at home.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Vernon on Rover is $21.09 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 2,284 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Vernon. 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 Vernon 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 Vernon. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
