“Dorothy visits my fur babies daily, but she also provides care for them when we go out of town for longer trips. As always, our last trip she was incredible! Amazing attention to detail, great communication, and easy to work with. We don't trust any other sitter with our pets.”
“Chelsey was great with our Violet! She went above and beyond to make sure Violet didn’t go too long without a check-in and potty break. She gave me great peace of mind while we were out of state!”
“Valerie is awesome, she’s very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs. Highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and even went so far as to observe their bowl movements to see how their health was while we were gone. I will be using her in the future whenever we travel!”
“Monica was such a blessing to me to take care of my Maddi during my long work hours. She provided lots of pictures and videos during her visits and always communicated clearly to me. Monica took good care of Maddi and gave her lots of love!🩷”
“My Layla girl had a very stressful day; I was out of town and unable to get to her to cuddle her to bed and Nicole was great with her!! Took her on a walk, tucked her in, and spent the full 30 min taking care of my girl. Also very friendly and communicative!”
“Madeline was amazing! I've had a lot of Rover experiences and Madeline was by far the best! Right away, the dogs loved her and she has been so nice and communicative. She will definitely be our go to for our dog care.”
“i have a fussy and super outgoing bengal cat. Alden has exceeded my expectations with his attention towards my cat and he takes amazing pictures. He is also very communicative with me about how things are going. He is also quick to respond which I appreciate. I will definitely use him in the future!”
About: How owners want there furry friends to be loved is how they will be expected and treated the best way possible! They will be cared for in the best way possible. I let out or walk dogs in the morning and during my lunch time I walk them again and right after work I walk them again. And right before bed I walk them again. How ever the owner wants me to take care of there furry friend I take care of them how they are expected to be loved
“Amanda is always the best. I can’t say enough about her, and it’s crazy that Rover won’t let me tip more. She is so attentive, personable, and communicative. Don’t overthink it, just book her if you can. Such an amazing sitter, and you never have to worry about your furry friends. Thank you Amanda!”
“Absolutely wonderful!!! My kitties were comfortable with her right away which allowed me to leave knowing they were in good hands!!! Everything was clean and kitties were well fed and well loved! Thanks Katie!!!'”
“Zaylie was absolutely amazing with Philly! From the very first walk, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She was reliable, communicative, and always kept me updated with photos and notes, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Philly came back happy, exercised, and clearly well taken care of every time. You can tell Zaylie takes pride in what she does and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.
“She has been hands down the best drop-in sitter I have found on this Rover. She sent lots of pictures and gave great updates. She left everything just as it was. I would 100% use her again.”
“Morgan did a fantastic job! Our puppy is a bit of a handful and she took the time to let her warm up to her by playing with her and giving her treats before taking both dogs for a walk so my husband and I could enjoy a night out. She was kind, considerate, and really put my mind at ease even though I was far from home. Thank you Morgan! ❤️”
“Caitlin took excellent care of our cats and dog while we were away and kept us updated the whole time! She gave some extra love to our anxious kitty and made some adjustments to make sure she was eating enough, too. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Nicole has such a calming way with our pups! She took great care of our girl Belle, sent lots of photos, updates and gave lots of floor cuddles! We will 100% book with Nicole again <3! Thank you!!!”
“Maritess is very professional and she does an excellent job with our girls. She sends plenty of pictures (which are always very well taken)and we can tell that our cats are very comfortable around her.”

It was a PLEASURE to have Nicole drop in on our baby, Maverick while we were out of town. Our usual sitter was unavailable for our last minute trip and I scrambled trying to find someone right before having to leave. Nicole was available to meet right away and she took the best care of him. I could tell from the moment he met her that he would love her. All of his check in pics had a huge smile on his little face lol We’ll definitely be booking with Nicole again in the future!
Jasmin agreed to watch our cats for two weeks while we went on vacation. I was quite nervous as it was our first time using rover and we have some finicky cats. I was very worried initially as i have a senior cat with some health issues and my other is very shy and quick to refuse food when stressed. She was very confident when we met her and when we introduced her to the cats both of them immediately took to her. This was a first for us as again my one cat has never been so friendly upon meeting someone for the first time but I genuinely believe it was because she has a fantastic personality and animal handling skills. For two weeks she was prompt and clear with her communication and took great photos that made me feel comfortable about my cats' condition. Of course, there were also funny moments she was able to capture which really put me at ease. She was able to identify their patterns of behavior and made notes on it. I appreciate her thoughtfulness on refilling their litter and water fountain. The most memorable thing she did for us was when we were delayed an extra day coming back for our vacation she was completely understanding and agreed to watch the cats on such extremely short notice. If I ever have to get a pet sitter again I know that she will be my first choice going forward. Thank you Jasmin!!
Elana was amazing. She made sure to take great care of my cat while I was away for a couple weeks. She sent me updates with pictures and notes of the visit, letting me know how things went. She was always so communicative, and I’m absolutely going back to her when I need a cat sitter. 10/10!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Waverly on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 522 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Waverly. 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 Waverly 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.

- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
