Alyssa is very reliable, on time, and took wonderful care of my cat, Oggy. I really appreciated the updates with photos and notes, it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. When I got home, my cat was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again.

About: Lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like my own! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your furry best friend’s in good hands. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and love giving them a safe, happy space because they deserve the best! 💕🐕 As of right now I have walks/drop in visits regularly booking from 11am-4pm Mon-Fri and I usually work 6pm-10pm Fri and Saturday nights. I’m still open to house sitting visits if you’re okay with me coming and going for those visits! If i know a week ahead I can request off work for weekends, I also have my own dog Osito who loves to make new friends! If you’re okay with me bringing him along that would be amazing but if not no worries I completely understand! I always treat pets (and their homes!) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I make sure doors are locked, routines are followed, and your furry friend stays safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

About: Hello! I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the person eager to help care for them. I’ve raised and trained a dog of my own and have looked after many others since my teens. I’ve also had two cats, so I’m no stranger to feline personalities, whether they’re cuddly, independent, or a little dramatic. Over the years, I’ve also cared for a variety of reptiles and amphibians, so I’m comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and species. Animals have always come naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know their unique quirks and routines. Whether your pet loves playtime, prefers quiet company, or just wants someone reliable to keep them safe and comfortable, I’ll make sure they receive the same care, patience, and attention I’d give my own pets. 🐾 For the summer, I am very flexible and I am completely free for most days. I prefer working weekdays in the mid morning or afternoon/evening but weekends and earlier times are no problem, don’t be afraid to ask! Starting Aug 6., I will be working 8am-3pm Monday-Friday. Still will be available any other times or days! I can easily crate your dog if needed, and I will keep a close eye on them whenever they are outside. I will always respect the surroundings of my client’s home and make sure to follow any instructions you provide. I am also happy to adapt to each pet’s individual needs so they feel comfortable and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of my own personal animals for about 6 years now (hence the years of experience), but I have also taken care of many other animals before living on my own! I have had experience giving diabetes medication to cats before (injection). I also have experience giving pills, ointments, and eye drops! I have no college classes during the summer, I attend part-time during the fall and spring months. So, I have plenty of time to attend to your pets needs! I can work with any potty or feeding schedule and can stay the night at your place if requested! :-) I cannot house any pets unfortunately at my place, however I can make as many visits or keep as much company with your fur babies as needed!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs through all stages of life. We’ve ALWAYS had dogs growing up in my family and as I’ve gotten older I’ve even helped raise a couple puppies. I dog sit for a few people from work and such whenever they go out and I’ve even helped a couple people potty train their puppies by just letting them out every couple hours while they were at work! I have a cat myself currently and have had multiple dogs (including special needs ones) in the past, so I understand working with animals multiple times every single day. I’d be at your house multiple times a day to let your animals out/check on them. When an animals owners go away I know they have to be sad or maybe even lonely. So I try to go out of my way to make sure they are comfortable while you’re away and even (if they’re not a playful type of pet) to play or cuddle with them for a few minutes at least each time I’d stop by so they get at least a little bit of pent up energy out.

About: Hi, I'm Caroline! 🐾 Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I love getting to know each pup's unique personality. I've cared for playful puppies, senior dogs, high-energy adventurers, and pups who need medication or a little extra TLC. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care. Whether your dog loves long walks, backyard playtime, cuddles on the couch, or all of the above, I'm happy to match their routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. My goal is simple: treat every dog like they're part of the family and make sure they have a fun, stress-free time on our walk, check-in, or while you’re away! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm a big planner and communicate clearly, so you'll always know when I'm arriving and how your pet is doing. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, I do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent and stress-free. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I do my best to keep things as familiar as possible. I'll follow your care instructions closely, make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and potty breaks, and I'll always treat your home with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home.

Shannon was AWESOME!!! Not only was she very personable and a joy to meet she was wonderful with our two dog. Our mini Aussie who can be unsure of new people warmed up immediately and sat right in her lap and gave her kisses. She went above and beyond when she came to check in on our dogs while we were away and sent us texts and pictures letting us know they were doing great. We are so excited to have a dog sitter who we trust with our dogs and in our home. Would highly recommend!!!!

About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Los Angeles. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.

About: Although I don't have a dog of my own, pets have always been a part of my life! My childhood best friend has two golden retrievers, so growing up we spent countless hours taking them out for playtime and keeping them occupied. My sister adopted an adorable golden doodle two summers ago, and our house is like his second home because of how often he loves to visit. Any of my friends can count on me asking "Where's the dog?" whenever I come over, because I just gravitate to having a furry friend by my side! I specialize in discovering all of your pets' silly quirks that make them unique and working with them from there. I also specialize in working with hyper-active pets, being able to expend their energy in a healthy way and calm them down. I adapt well between large and small animals, handling them each with the proper care/delicacy they need. I have a lot of free time to fill this summer, so my general availability will always be open. I am mainly open to Doggy Day Care, House Sitting, and Dog Walking, but am also interested in Boarding! My daily availability is the most open in the mornings and afternoons, so if you leave home early for a job or a trip I'll be right here to step in. Weekends are also free to Board! I have a large yard with plenty of room for your dog to get out their zoomies! There are also two parks in walking distance from my house, so I have plenty of access to the outdoors. My sister has a mini golden doodle who visits all the time, so I can always set up play dates to give your pet a furry friend. I can administer any medication your dog has need of if I have instructions, and will send as many updates as needed so you know they're in good hands! Relaxation time is always great to have, but I will make sure your pet has a good variation of activities so they are never bored. If I am aware of any triggers your pets has, I will provide a safe environment, whether in your home or mine, so I can always keep them stress-free.

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals—raising multiple dog and cat breeds, being the trusted friend who watches everyone’s pets, and even working as a pre-vet student and zookeeper for tigers and wolves. I now have my own husky and two cats, and I’m confident, calm, and experienced with pets of all personalities, needs, and energy levels. Because I work remotely full-time, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily rotate between work and pet care, fitting in walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins whenever needed. My availability stays steady, so your pet gets reliable company, structure, and care from morning to evening. I Will be able to work with you on the comfort and needs of your pets based on mutual available resources and your pets training.

About: I have been around dogs since I was born. I have experience handling all sorts of dog and all sorts of personalities. I didn't just grow up with dogs, I had cats, turtles, horses, donkeys, and have worked with just about every farm animal you can think of. I am definitely an animals person and would say I like them more than humans some times. I am a student athlete at the university of Nebraska, I have a pretty full schedule but being far from home makes me miss taking my dogs for walks. Here in Lincoln I have a tortious, his name is Henry, he doesn't require much care. I feed him in the morning and on the weekends I give him a bath. I will not be having animals at my home as I rent a house and there are no animals allowed on the property. When working at a clients home I would be mindful of all instructions left along with being ultra careful with the animal and the space as they do not belong to me and I am just a guest.

Kristin came by for an hour to meet us and the fur babies and learn our routines ahead of a 1-week vacation. It was going to be our first time away from our new pups and Kristin made us comfortable and it seemed like a good fit right away. Since then she's helped us numerous times and it's always been great. Thanks, Kristin!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Waverly on Rover is $16.65 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 757 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waverly. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
