“Rachel was the absolute best and couldn’t have asked for for a better person to take care of the pups!! HIGHLY recommend and will absolutely be using her from here on out!”
“Jennifer goes above and beyond in caring not only for my cat, but for my plants! She has been so easy to work with, and I never had any qualms about leaving my cat and my home in her care, even with my recent extended time away. Highly recommend Jennifer!!”
“We are so pleased with the care our cats received. Amy and Jesus were communicative, dependable, and thorough. We would happily trust them with our pets in the future.”
“So kind and thorough! My dog has anxiety that can lead to biting, and Brianna was so good with him, and my 2 cats! Very fast responses that I really appreciated. Followed all instructions and cleaned. Definitely will rebook!”
About: I currently have two amazing dogs, Oslo and Annie. Oslo is a Labrador Pit Bull mix. I have taken care of him since he was a puppy. Annie is a Pit Bull mix. I got Annie when she was 2. Both dogs love to play out back in the fenced in yard. What sets me apart? I had a dog with 3 legs and he required special care. His name was Kal. I had a dog named Charlette. She was very overweight when I got her and I helped slim her down by adjusting her diet and walking. I got Charlette when she was old. I took care of her until she died of old age. I have taken care of dogs that were emotionally and physically abused by their previous owners and I have a huge heart for helping dogs through those awful situations. My current dog Annie is a classic example of a dog that can be an amazing companion even after emotional and physical abuse from a previous owner. I also volunteered at final victory through the doggy day out walking program. I participated in the Mardi Gras Parade with one of Final Victory dogs and I have volunteered at the Final Victory Campus to help with cleaning doggy bowls for all the dogs. I can work full time any day of the week. I am available for walking services or staying at the pets home for as many nights as needed. I do not offer boarding services at my home due to Annie still learning that other dogs are a safe space and mean no harm. I care for my pets by playing fetch, giving treats, playing tug of war with a rope, feeding, bathing, providing potty break, walking, and socializing with other dogs. I don't trim dogs nails.
About: I truly love spending time with all kinds of pets! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their animals. I know that dogs need their exercise and outdoor time, while cats might need a clean litter box and some interactive toy play. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn off energy or your cat needs some gentle chin scratches, I am reliable, attentive, and will always send plenty of photo updates! I currently work morning and occasional afternoon shifts, typically from 5 AM–1 PM or 12 PM–5 PM. My schedule still allows me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. Outside of my work hours, I am available for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and make sure they receive the care, companionship, and attention they need while you’re away. I strictly follow all security and care instructions to keep your pets and property safe. I am a highly responsible and communicative sitter. I'll send you frequent photo and text updates so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing while you're away.
“Mariaisabel was so kind and helpful! She took great care of my cats! I was reassured to know that someone who cares was dropping in to check on them while we were out of town :)”
“Emily was great looking after our 4 dogs! She always sent updates & photos after every visit. I felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in her care. We will be rebooking in the future!”
“Grace was super caring and patient with our two girls while we were away! Keeping up with 3 check-ins a day is not easy, but she made sure the pups got some free time. Definitely would recommend!”
“I highly recommend Mehlayne to anyone looking for a caring, compassionate, and dependable dog sitter. She took wonderful care of my female Great Dane, Luna, and was very attentive to all of her specific care needs and routines. Communication was excellent throughout Luna’s stay. She kept me updated regularly with text messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing Luna was comfortable, happy, and being well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals entrusted to her. I felt completely comfortable leaving Luna in her care and would not hesitate to have her watch Luna again. I highly recommend her! Steve HEIDEL”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand that every dog has their own routine, quirks, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs! Whether that means a long walk, playing, or simply giving them some company and attention. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday from 7 AM–3 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I also have weekend availability, so feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! I have one friendly, crate trained and house trained dog who gets along well with other animals, as well as two cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you know how your pet is doing.
About: Years of experience in housepet and farm care, ranging from the biggest horse to the smallest fish. I was employed with Happy Tails Petsitting before moving out here to Lyman, where I sent clients updates every visit. Currently unemployed, will update if necessary. Animal care is my specialty, and employment options are pretty limited to me. Recommendations are much appreciated for top of the line care for others! I focus on feeding, medications, and play time for housepets, and farm animals as well. Just hit me with a list of instructions and I'll be all set!
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I can remember and truly enjoy caring for animals as part of the family. I love taking care of my neighbors and family’s animals while they are away. We currently have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, so I’m very comfortable with the everyday needs and personalities of different pets. I work from home so I am able to provide lots of care and attention with my flexible schedule. That means lots of walks, playtime, or just keeping up with their normal routine. I have a fenced in yard and live on a quiet street in the back of our neighborhood. I have two dogs so we make sure our living space is safe for our fur babies. My dogs are friendly but I am able to keep them separated or meet whatever needs work for your pet.
About: I have grown up with dogs ranging in sizes from a cocker spaniel, to a German Shepard. I have a special place in my heart for cats as well. I currently work as a flight attendant so my days available are a little bit spontaneous. However on the days that I am off you can rest easy knowing your pet will have my full attention. I unfortunately can not offer house sitting in my own home because of my roommates allergies. However, as far as walks and house sitting in your own home I’m a very scheduled person. If you have a schedule that suits your pet I will stick to it.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wellford
We found ourselves in a bind two weeks from a major vacation with the current pet sitter. Veterinary care recommended Rover. We then found Chad and Katy. This was our godsend, they are very conscientious young adults. They are personable, caring and went over and above for our 14 year old dog!! We feel so blessed that this happened because they will be our forever caregivers for this pet and any future pets. Do not hesitate to have them take care of your pets!
This is my third time using Palina to care for Luna, and once again she did an amazing job. It’s such a relief knowing Luna is in good hands whenever I’m away. Palina is dependable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she watches. Luna always comes home happy, well cared for, and comfortable, which gives me complete peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and care she provides every time. I highly recommend Palina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wellford is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $19 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 1,513 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wellford. 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.

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.
