“My original Rover was booked due to leaving this last minute in accident and their flexibility, attention to detail and taking the time to video us all before booking really made for a comfortable experience.”
“Alyssa is absolutely wonderful with taking care of my dogs and letting them out while I’m at work on nights! I would Highly recommend her. She is punctual, friendly, and my Dogs love her! If you want someone to trust and is highly reliable, I recommend Alyssa!”
“Cassidy was amazing! Our other sitter ghosted us the night before we left on our vacation. Within an hour of making contact, she came over to meet our pups. They adored her. The whole time we were gone, she checked in with us and kept us up to date on everything. She made a near disaster amazing!”
About: I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 20 years. I do have two cats but I can separate them away from pet. I am good with all types of different pets. I am home during the day and so I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pet. I have time to walk and play with dogs and spend time with cats. I have a large yard just outside my home where the pet can play. I live in a quiet area so the animals will not be disturbed.
About: I love dogs like people and have been a devoted owner, foster parent, and caretaker of rescue dogs for years! I'm a CPDT-KA positive reinforcement dog trainer with various other certifications including applied ethology and aggression. We moved to the area recently, and since we moved here, I'm primarily a stay at home mom. That's why I decided to start doing Rover again! I am easy going and have that endless patience and love that all dogs need. I tailor every experience to your dog to meet their personal needs and activity level. Your dog will get plenty of enrichment and love during their time with me! I'm currently a volunteer community organizer and typically do that work from home. We no longer have a dog, and I look forward to giving all the love to your precious pup! We have a fenced in yard. My mom's two small dogs are happy to hang out with your pup, or we can keep them separate. I'll have a quiet, enclosed space to give your pup that essential down time. Dogs will be confined if alone in the house for their safety as there are kid's toys around that are a potential hazard. My kids are good with dogs, and I'll be supervising them.
“Krystal was an incredible pet sitter while I was out of town. She was thorough and communicative, she went above and beyond in caring for our pet family, she sent highly detailed updates and tons of wonderful photos. Highly recommended—especially for anyone anxious about leaving a pet at home.”
About: Animal lover alert! I have a deep love and connection for all living things, especially cats and dogs. I currently have three, yes THREE, cats of my own. I grew up with very large dogs, and spent a lot of my free time sitting for friends and family. I have experience with baby animal care, including bottle feeding kittens. I have the patience and steady hand for seniors and animals that require more care. I’m not afraid to administer medication or handle behavioral issues. I am responsible, knowledgeable, and have a keen eye for detail. Above all, I love learning and spending time with pets! My schedule is currently quite flexible during the weekdays, and weekends are open for more involved care. Currently, my part time job allows me to adjust my schedule weekly, sometimes daily, since our work is project based. I have the ability to go on day-of walks or quick drop ins on demand depending on the day and time. Your house, your rules! I can accommodate whatever needs are necessary based on the type of pet you have and how your home is set up. I’m happy to uphold any routine! Special instructions are my speciality.
“Gabby has been amazing! She does weekly drop in visits for our new 4 month old puppy. Our puppy loves her and she is great at communicating and sharing photos. I highly recommend her!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! Growing up, my mom always told me, “When you’re older, you can have as many animals as you want,” and I definitely took that seriously! 😂🐾 I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels—from laid-back companions and sweet seniors to young puppies and high-energy working breeds. I understand that every dog is different and deserves care that fits their individual needs, routine, and personality. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs who need structure and engagement, puppies who are still learning, and older dogs who may need a slower pace and a little extra patience. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every dog in my care like one of my own. ❤️🐶 I work from home, which allows me to be home throughout the day and keep a close eye on the pups in my care! 🐾 I love having the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, attention, cuddles, and plenty of supervision. Your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I’m able to adjust my day around their normal routine as much as possible. Having dogs around while I work honestly makes my day even better! ❤️🐶 Every pup in my care is treated like part of the family! 🐾 Since I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of supervision throughout the day, along with regular potty breaks, playtime, exercise, attention, and lots of love. Safety is also a big priority in my home. I keep extra crates available when needed, spare leashes as a backup, and have privacy/safety screening around my patio to help block openings and keep curious pups secure. I’m careful about doors, outdoor time, feeding, and interactions between dogs, and I’m happy to provide separate spaces when needed. Every dog is different, so I’ll follow your pup’s normal feeding schedule, crate routine, training cues, medication needs, and any special instructions you provide. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, loved, and at home while you’re away! 🐶❤️
About: Stay at home doggie dad. Love all pets but dogs are the best. They are our kids and they are spoiled just like a that. They are the only thing we think about. Morning, noon or night they are by our side. Our babies. Never physical punishment but they do get time outs in their kennels if they have been misbehaving. We have a very open floor plan in the house which they run around and the back door is always open for them to come in and out. The back yard is very large with trees and shrubs that they play in and around. It is a fully fenced six foot enclosed yard with plenty of room to roam or run. Last of all no neighbor dogs to annoy them.
“Lauren is trustful and very friendly. Even our skittish cat who is very wary of strangers, felt very comfortable with Lauren. He even ate treats from her hands. She is a pet whisperer. We were on a week long vacation, she took care of our cats very well and sent us pictures of them everyday. Highly recommended!”
About: I grew up loving dogs. I always had at least one dog in our house. Since then, I've volunteered with dogs for the past ten years. I've volunteered in human societies, with the dumb friends league, and for local community rescue events. Though I don't have my own dogs, because I travel too often, I love being around animals. I am available for quick match dog walks, dog walking, visits, and overnight dog sitting. I'm work from home and am very available, and looking forward to helping you out and meeting your dog. I promise to give your dog all of my love, attention, and pets. If your dog happens to be more active, that's great, and I'll be happy to take him or her for walk and runs per your request. I have a very flexible work from home schedule. I can plan my work around your pet's needs and am happy to adjust my time to fit my Rover obligations. I have a fenced in yard for your pet to explore and play in. I'll send updates throughout your pet's time with me to provide assurance and comfort, letting you know they're safe and happy.
“Rebecca took care of our dog while we were on Vacation. She did an excellent job taking care of our older dog that takes medication. We will be using her again in the future.”
About: I used to work for U Lucky Dog daycare and boarding as a front lead for 7 years and I have two fur babies of my own. I work hybrid, so every other day I work from home on a rotating schedule. Monday through Friday 6am to 2pm. On weekends I am available all day. I’ll treat your home with respect as I would hope others would for me. Clean up after your fur babies as I do for my own. Leave it better than you found it.
“Haley is an amazing pet sitter! Great communication and super reliable. Incredibly helpful with my cat who has some bladder issues. She's my top choice for a pet sitter!”
“Chanel was a great pet sitter for our cat and dog while we were gone. She was on time and sent us pictures and updates while we were gone. Will definitely hire her again.”
“Victoria was attentive and wonderful! She offered to water our plants on top of checking on our cat for a few days. He was very well taken care of and loved her company 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Welby
Katelynn was fantastic and easy to work with. My high-needs kitty can be very shy and gets easily stressed with strangers. She seemed to like Katelynn a lot and was very relaxed when we returned home. She looked great and thank you for taking such good care of her Katelynn! I highly recommend your pet care.
This was our first time having Lauren let our 2 dogs out while we were gone. She was so patient with our very energetic furry ones during the initial meeting and both dogs really liked her immediately. Everyday she was there we got a great little note about her time with them and several fun pictures. You could really tell they enjoyed their time with her and it made us feel better knowing they were being well taken care of. We will definitely be contacting her next time we need help!
Jenny really spent time with my cat! I have had other cat sitters (from Rover) who spent 5 or 10 minutes, but Jenny spent 25-30 minutes to give my cat some play time and lots of love. I have a camera on my front door so I know how long the sitter stays. Jenny sent regular updates and was easy to work with.
Laura checked on our cat while we were away during the holidays. Laura is very responsive to all communication. She provided daily updates with pictures (even though our cat is super shy). It was great knowing that someone was checking on him every day. Laura, thank you so much for taking care of Fez!
Alyssa watched our pups while we were away over the holidays, with walks and drop in visits. She also fed our fish. She was very flexible when we had to change plans a few times. She made sure our dog got his daily meds and even cleaned up a poo accident inside the house. Our dog is not easy, so it was a great relief to have someone we could trust take great care of him. She even shared some homemade dog treats! Would highly recommend Alyssa to others.
McKenna took great care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. She fed them, played with them, and gave them attention. She left our house just as clean as when we left and took care of a excited eater's vomit. The cats love having her visit and we know they are in good hands.
Leah is amazing! She’s been doing occasional drop-in visits for our pups over the past few months, and we are so grateful for her. Her communication is excellent, and she always leaves thoughtful notes and the best photos, which we truly appreciate. Our dogs clearly love her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter. Thank you, Leah!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Welby is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 November 2026, there are 13,775 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Welby. 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 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 Welby. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
