“Dorothy always goes above and beyond! She seriously cares about our babies so I always feel they’re in the best hands when she’s here! Truly grateful to have her whenever I need to go away from home!”
“Amanda was fabulous! She took great care of our girl Jenny! She was very accommodating to last minute schedule changes and she was always quick to respond to any messages. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, roommates, neighbors, and family. I’ve helped with walking, feeding, playtime, overnight care, and basic routines. I’ve also cared for a senior dog with anxiety, and I know how important calm energy, patience, and consistency are. I love being active, going on walks, and spending quality time with dogs. I’m new to Rover, but I take responsibility seriously, follow instructions carefully, and always treat pets like my own. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and confident. I am a full-time engineer, graduate student, and National Guard service member. I love walking and being active. I am mainly available on weekends and some evenings. Fridays and weekends are my most flexible days, and I plan my bookings around my work schedule so pets always get proper care. I always make sure pets are in a clean, calm, and safe environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules and potty breaks. I keep doors secure, remove anything unsafe, and make sure pets are always supervised when needed.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since middle school! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I have 2 years of veterinary experience and love all kinds of animals. I’m comfortable with rabbits, hamsters, you name it! I have experience caring for senior dogs: giving medication, shots, expressing bladders, and changing diapers. If you have any other questions on what I’m comfortable with, just message me! :) I’m currently a full time physical therapy student at AU. For so long I was stuck between animal and human medicine. This is my way of being able to indulge and care for animals while still being in school! M, T, Th I’m in class from 8-4, W, F from 8-12. I can swing by in the mornings before classes start in the afternoons/evenings too! I treat clients homes like my own. I make sure to respect all boundaries and rules that have been laid down. It’s scary to allow a stranger into your home, so I try to make it as easy as possible by promising respect and honesty. I also have dogs of my own, so if you want your dog(s) to have a play date, they have a friend waiting for them! :)
About: I grew up with dogs and had a special bond with my family’s dog in college. She loved when I would take her on an “interval run.” I recently successfully fed and medicated my friend’s five dogs several times. Please, I would love to meet your dog(s) with you there to get to know them first. I am officially insured and bonded through Pet Sitters Associates in case of an inopportune incident taking place while my clients’ pets and homes are in my care. Insurance certificate available upon request if we move forward with a meet-and-greet. I work full-time 8 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. I don’t mind getting up early to check on your fur baby. I work in the 30904 zip code, so I could potentially check on them during my hourlong lunch break if you live close enough. I work to ensure that a pet who is not allowed outside a certain door stays inside. When I fed my friend’s five dogs a couple of months ago, I was told one was an escape artist, but I successfully left out of the front door without her getting out. Please let me know what command words your pet is familiar with.
“Sally did a great job with our two pups. She took the time to meet us ahead of time and get to know our pups. She made us feel so comfortable and it was clear from the pictures that our babies were well cared for while we were gone!”
“Meaghan was fantastic! She was very responsive and took our reservation last minute which was a life saver. Our doggos were so happy and well taken care of. We loved the pictures she sent when she stopped by! Thank you again!”
“We were very impressed with Emily knowledge of animals and especially for our fur babies. She took such good care of them and I love that she was able to connect with them right off the bat. She sent pictures everytime. Thank you Emily for such great care!!! 😊😊😊”
About: I love caring for my friends' pets when they're away for the weekend! I'm equally a dog and cat person and have experience looking after both. I'd love to give your pets the same care and attention while you're away! I have a really flexible schedule on the weekends, so I'm happy to work around your plans! I also enjoy getting some movement in the morning, so if your pup loves an early adventure, I'm more than happy to take them along. I can easily crate your animal if needed. I do not have a backyard area or balcony. Animals are free to roam around wherever they please.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have always considered animals part of the family. I currently have two 8-year-old cats, and until recently I also had two dogs, including a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Malamute mix who sadly passed away from heart failure this year and a Pit Bull who passed away the year before. Caring for pets throughout their different stages of life has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping their normal routines while their families are away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. My only regular commitments are school drop-off and pickup. This allows me plenty of time for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I live in a quiet apartment community with a small dog park that I can use for appropriate dogs. I have two friendly 8-year-old cats who are comfortable around people and pets. I also have a toddler who loves animals and a 5-year-old who is more timid around very energetic dogs, so I’m especially mindful of each pet’s temperament and comfort level. I will only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and family, and I always prioritize safety, supervision, and following your pet’s normal routine
About: I absolutely love playing and taking care of animals. I grew up around animals since I was born. Any job required will get done and you will be more than satisfied with my services. I can help potty train, help with tricks, bathe the animal (if you want), & keep them happy during my visit with them or their visit with me in my home. I absolutely don’t like animal abuse so I will not hurt your love one or hit them for their mistake. I simply take care of the issue (ex: using bathroom in the house) by knowing to take them out every so often. I’m very nice and will take care and love on your pet(s) as if they were my own! Overall, please book me early in advance as my schedule can fill up. I also take care of your home as it’s my own and can help with watering plants, making sure trash goes out, getting the mail everyday and I will clean up my area when I stay at your house. I want to make you feel better when you turn home and have to do as little work as possible. I’m currently a college student onto becoming a nurse. I have plenty of time on my hand to accommodate your needs for your sweet pets I currently have a fenced in yard and have two smaller pups. One is more a senior so she’s constantly in bed but the other one has full energy and loves to be friendly with another pups to play with.
About: I’m a proud pet owner of cats and dogs alike for over 10 years. I’ve been pet sitting for other people for over 5 years and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give you peace of mind through dependable, attentive care. I’m a student at Augusta University, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m in the Augusta area year-round and can often accommodate weekday, weekend, and last-minute bookings. I work hard to be dependable, responsive, and flexible so your pet can stay on their normal routine while you’re away. Whether you need daily visits, overnight care, or weekend pet sitting, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs your pet may have. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it.

About: I have been around many different types of dogs and cats since I was young. I love animals and have never had any issue taking care of neighbors or friends pets. I adopted a kitten of my own a few months ago and she is the sweetest! I currently work 2 part time jobs and I am a full time nursing student. However I am very hard working and will have time to take care of your animal in anyway it needs. Drop by visits are best but if your animal needs an overnight watch I am more than happy to stay there. I can easily make sure the dogs or cats are safe and if they need to be crated it will be no issue at all! I am very good with handling pets even difficult ones and puppies.
“Autumn was absolutely wonderful with my dogs and they lived her! She even sent pictures updates while she was there. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and I'm excited about using here in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a loving and responsible pet owner who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. ❤️ I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, and I always make sure to follow their instructions carefully. Whether it’s taking their dog for a walk at a specific time, giving medication, following feeding schedules, or making sure they get plenty of playtime and attention, I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I also have experience with cat drop-ins. I’m happy to visit multiple times a day to feed them, refresh their water, give them attention and playtime, and clean up any messes they may have made. I have an Aussiedoodle of my own who I’ve had for almost three years, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I know how much peace of mind it can bring to receive updates and know that your pet is happy and being well cared for. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and give them the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐶🐱💕 As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am generally available for drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive the care and attention they need. For house sitting, I’m flexible and can discuss arrangements based on your preferences and your pet’s needs. I’ll always communicate with you ahead of time if I have any scheduling or availability concerns so we can make sure everything works well for you and your pets. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they are in caring and responsible hands. I have a fully fenced backyard, which provides a safe space for dogs to get some fresh air, play, and enjoy outdoor time while being supervised. I’ll always follow your preferences and your pet’s usual routine when it comes to outdoor time. I carefully follow all instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs or routines your pet may have. I’ll also keep you updated during visits or stays so you know how your pet is doing. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and care while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home and belongings with the same respect I would want for my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Waverly
Valerie was fantastic! She saved my butt and came to check in on my girlies on super short notice. She sent ample pictures and updates, and I can tell my girls really liked her. I would definitely recommend her for your babies, because she takes the job seriously and has the bandwidth to dedicate her attention completely to them.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Waverly is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 495 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Waverly. 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
