About: Ever since a kid, I’ve loved interacting with animals. Though I don’t have professional experience caring for them, I’ve owned a dog and have helped take care of pets for my friends and family; that includes sitting, walking and grooming. I am currently enrolled in school and attend Tuesdays & Thursdays from 9am-2pm. I am available outside of those times unless I have any other commitments or obligations that arise. Whatever special instructions you have for me to provide your pet the utmost care, I can comply without a problem. Since I can’t host, I will respect your home, your furry friend, and your trust.

“Melissa is great for our Husky Niko. She just started doing drop in visits for us. She has been wonderful with following directions on how to care for him along with running his energy out while we are at work. She is also flexible which is great for us because sometimes we may need switch up dates and times based on our schedules. Definitely recommend her to anyone for their dog. She knows how to keep high energy dogs interacting with her while she is here. Also switches up what she does with them when she stops over. Sometimes it’s running around in the back yard, playing with toys, or using treats to keep them engaged.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have taken care of all sizes of dogs. I would love the chance to take care of your pup it would make me so happy and I’ll take such good care of him/her:) I have helped trained two puppies and also have taken care of my senior dog with all his meds and needs. With years of experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, I provide personalized and attentive care that sets me apart from other sitters. I have a deep understanding of animal behavior, which helps me cater to each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s offering special care for older pets with mobility issues or engaging young, playful animals with stimulating activities. I’m also experienced in administering medications and following specific dietary plans. My commitment to keeping pets comfortable and happy in their familiar routine ensures peace of mind for owners while they’re away. I’m currently working part time so I have lots of time to take your pup on a walk! I am available Monday - Sunday ! As a pet sitter, my care approach varies depending on whether I’m taking care of pets in my home or at my client’s home. Here’s an outline of my typical care routine for both scenarios: Caring for Pets in My Home: • Safe Environment: I create a pet-friendly space, ensuring there are no hazards (such as small objects or toxic plants) and provide a comfortable, clean area for the pets to relax and play. • Exercise & Playtime: Pets get regular exercise and play sessions based on their needs—whether that’s daily walks, interactive play, or simply cuddling and lounging. • Feeding & Hydration: I follow specific feeding instructions, including meal times, portions, and any special dietary needs. Fresh water is always available. • Sleep Arrangements: Pets have cozy, designated areas to rest, whether it’s a crate, bed, or blanket, depending on what they’re comfortable with. • Grooming & Hygiene: Regular grooming is provided, including brushing, cleaning eyes and ears, and ensuring litter boxes or potty areas are clean. • Health & Medication: If pets are on medication or need special care, I carefully administer treatments as per the owner’s directions. Caring for Pets in Client’s Home: • Home Security: I maintain the security of the home by following any specific instructions regarding entry and exit, locking doors, and managing alarms. • Familiar Environment: Pets get the comfort of being in their own home, which can reduce stress. I ensure their regular routine is followed as closely as possible. • Exercise & Feeding: Just like in my home, I ensure pets get their regular walks, exercise, feeding schedule, and playtime. This might also include activities like yard time or neighborhood strolls. • Mail & Plants: I often provide additional services such as collecting mail or watering plants, as requested by the client. • Updates: I send regular updates and photos to the owners to assure them that their pet is happy and well-cared for in their absence. Regardless of the location, my goal is to create a safe, loving environment for pets and maintain consistency in their care routine to keep them comfortable and happy.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for both. I currently have five cats and a dog, have successfully potty trained two puppies, and have helped care for cats through four different births and their newborn kittens. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and following each pet’s individual routine and needs. 🐾 I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine, so fitting in walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins comes naturally. make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, litter boxes, playtime, and lots of attention. I’ll also follow any specific instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels safe and at home while you’re away.

About: I have always had many pets throughout my life. I currently have 3 dogs 2 cats and some freshwater fish tanks. My family and I have always been animal people and are always the first choice for helping an animal in need. I also worked as a vet tech in high school before I went for college. I am currently a college student who has classes twice a week for two hours so I am free any time besides then to attend to any animals. I care for my pets as though they are my family. I make sure they have a schedule for feeding and going to the bathroom. Along with keeping them active mentally and physically with exercise and toys that they can have fun playing with.

About: I will provide love, compassion, exercise and adventure for your furry friend. I will get them out and make sure they have the exercise they need while giving them the love and care they need emotionally and physically. I have had dogs my whole life. I have loved caring for them at all stages. I love seeing their individual personalities and building them up. They are a special part of our family and special creatures. I have a flexible schedule that can be accommodating and have serval reference if desired. I have raised golden retrievers, but love other breeds as well. I am training for a trip up Kilimanjaro and would be happy to do long walks and hikes. I look forward to meeting and enjoying your furry family member.

About: I've taken care of dogs for many years and have a dog of my own who is my world. Dogs are the best and I only treat them with love and kindness. From playing to walking to making sure they know they are important is all I want to do for your pet. I'm full-time gig worker, so I'm very flexible with scheduling. I make sure we discuss in advance what will be needed and when so we're on the same page. I care for pets with love and attention. I make sure we are all on the same page so I can ensure we don't run into any issues.

About: Hi! I grew up taking care of my own animals (dogs, cats, horses, cows, etc) and started pet sitting for neighbors when I was 14. I’ve had pets in every house I’ve lived in and find joy in taking care of them. I am very active! I love going on walks and spending time outside with your animals. I have a flexible job in marketing that allows me to provide animals attentive care. I have lots of experience with all sorts of animals and love them all equally. I love going on long walks with dogs and playing with toys. I’ve had both large and small dogs.

About: Hi, I’m Jahari — a full-time college student with real-world animal care experience, both in and out of the clinic. I currently work at a veterinary office and volunteer at Loggerhead Marinelife Center, so animal care isn’t just a side gig — it’s a passion deeply rooted in my everyday life. With 3 dogs, 1 cat, and 2 birds of my own, I understand how important trust, patience, and personalized care are. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a shy senior cat, or a talkative parakeet, I adapt to every pet’s unique needs and personality. I’ve also cared for exotics and farm animals, including goats, chickens, and reptiles — so if your fur baby has feathers, scales, or hooves, they’re in experienced hands. As a full-time college student and current veterinary office employee, I’ve built a schedule that balances academic goals with my passion for animal care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, with early mornings, evenings, and weekends available for drop-in visits, walks, overnights, and even farm animal care. I also volunteer at Loggerhead Marinelife Center, so working with animals is not just a job — it’s part of my everyday life. With flexible class blocks and experience managing time across multiple responsibilities, I’m able to provide dependable, compassionate care without compromising the attention each pet deserves. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and medication — and tailor my care to their unique personality. With experience in a veterinary office, volunteering at Loggerhead, and caring for a wide range of animals (including dogs, cats, birds, goats, and more), I provide calm, reliable, and compassionate care that helps pets feel safe while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up with 3 pups of my own who are back home in Philadelphia while I’m in medical school! My roommate of 4 years had a senior cat of her own, so I am well versed in the needs of both cats and dogs. :) I’m currently in my 3rd year of medical school doing my rotations throughout the Palm Beach area! Dropping in on some furry friends or spending the night with them is something I’d love to be able to do when not in the hospital :) I’ll treat your pets like my own! They’ll get all the hugs, kisses, and snuggles - whatever they need. Safety is my priority and they will be treated like family.

I have already left a review for Crystal. Fawn-z likes her. He seems to respond to Crystal favorably. He appears to be happy once we get home. Our house is neat and clean; the same way we left it is how it looks when we get back home. Crystal is trustworthy. She loves and respects animals. You can't ask for better than that from a pet sitter. We are thrilled that we found Crystal and that Fawn-z feels comfortable with her. He's the judge and he definitely gives her a well-deserved 5-star rating.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wellington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wellington is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 4,183 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wellington. 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 Wellington. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
