“My first time using Rover. Julie made me very comfortable leaving my dogs sending pictures during her visits. She had good rapport with them during her meet & they “posed” well for pictures while I was gone so that rapport obviously continued.”
“Mimi did a wonderful job stopping in and taking care of our cat, Kali! She played with her and left detailed reviews our her visits. I knew Kali was so well taken care of. Would definitely use her again :)”
About: Animals but doggies in general have always held a special place in my heart since a young age. As a pet owner and prior military service member, I know how much it takes to leave your baby in someone else’s care. I have experience caring for my own pups as well as helping friends and family members with their babies. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding or just simply sticking to your pet’s routine, I’ll most definitely treat your baby with the same love, kindness, patience and care I give my own. I can’t wait to meet them :) 🐾🥰🤞🏾 I’m currently a full time online student looking to make some extra income and to give my babies Lana and Baby a buddy to play with :). So Monday - Sunday I’m available to take care of your fur baby. I currently live in a gated apartment complex with plenty of space towards the back. So they will have more than enough space to run around and get some playtime in. Also as far as walks I live right behind a levee and that’s where they will get their walks in :)
“Faith was great with our Gina. She even made sure to ask questions about care for Gina, to make sure that she would have everything she needed. It was a last-minute booking, and faith made us feel comfortable, leaving our fur baby in her care.”
“Ashely was very communicative and did a great job sending lots of pictures! We really appreciate her taking such good care of our pups and will definitely use her again!”
“This is the 3rd time we have used Claire and we would continuously use her if it weren’t for us moving. She sends pictures every single day. Our cats are terrified of strangers but they’ve grown to love her which has surprised us COMPLETELY. Not because of the person she is but because that’s how scared our cats are of strangers. She takes amazing care of them and nothing less. My cats are always so, so happy when we come home (because they get to see us but more because they got to have a friend to hang out with for a few days to get away from their parents) and they’re well fed. She takes the time to play with them and make sure they’re active. She is always asking questions if things she can do for them to make them happier, or maybe ask about other toys we have to stimulate them. She’s a pet lover and it shows. She’s the only one I trust to pet sit my cats and the only person I trust to leave alone in my home. Sayings she’s amazing is an understatement. You HAVE to hire her for your babies.”
“Thank you so much! I really appreciate the thoroughness and the kindness and the prompt visits! I will definitely be requesting you again when I have to go out of town!”
“Was able to come by at the last minute to help let my dog out when I had to attend a series of all-day events in town. Immediately responsive and so sweet to my little River!”
“Celeste was so sweet! We felt very comfortable having her watch our cat while we were out of town. She was super accommodating and we loved the photos that she sent us. We will definitely book with Celeste again.”
“Adam did a great job of caring for Kylo and Gary when we were away on vacation! We booked him for drop in visits, and his report card updates were great, and we felt comfortable with him in our home with the cats! Would book again in the future!”
“Needed someone for drop ins last minute and so thankful to have found Garrett!! Garrett was punctual, communication was consistent & thorough. He asked questions in order to get to know us and was enthusiastic about his time with Amber. They immediately got along and had a great visit each day. Thanks so much Garrett, we will definitely book with you again 😊”
About: I have 2 dogs, a boxer named Goose that is a rescue and a lemon beagle. I love all animals and I will treat your dog or cat like it’s my own. I have a very flexible schedule. Im employed under contract basis and I’m working on a special project is which allows for very flexible availability. I’m available for feedings, play time, long walks or just to spend time with your animal. I love to cuddle or play indoors or outdoors
“Morgan is my favorite sitter I recommend her to anyone who wants to spoil their pet! I gave her a reasonable list of to-dos to help care for my cat for when i’m away and i’m very type A so I thought i’d feel the need to constantly msg and check up. I was gone for 2.5 weeks and across the world on a 12-14 hour time difference, so I often woke up to her updates without having to msg her while she was there bc I was sleeping. And when I tell you her updates are very thorough, addressing every single thing on the to do list and the ease or challenges she had with each one, with many many many pictures each visit!!! every question I could’ve had was answered, I felt soooo at ease it made my trip so much better knowing I can just move on with my schedule knowing my fur baby is well taken care of. I couldn’t be happier with the care Morgan provided my sweet girl! highly recommend :)”
“Becks was amazing and super communicative the entire time I was away! I loved all the updates and photos that were provided, really made me feel like I was right at home. I would highly recommend Becks for your cat or dog needs. Couldn't ask for anyone better!”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Waggaman on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 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 .

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 Waggaman 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 Waggaman. On Rover:
- 92% 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.
