Kymberlee was absolutely amazing! She was so so nice and listened to everything I had said about my cat. Her positive energy immediately made me feel comfortable and I knew she would be perfect for the job! I will definitely be rebooking her in the future.

Ayla was amazing with my pups. She helped me out of a last-minute bind with 2 separate drop-in visits. Unfortunately, we were not able to coordinate a meet-and-greet beforehand (my fault), but I left a spare key for her and though pictures/video, I was able to show her where the leash, food, toys, etc was. She sent pictures and it looked like they were all having a great time! She even moped the floor because the pups came inside with slightly dusty paws. I would definitely use her again and recommended her to anyone looking for a sitter.

About: I love everything about animals! When it comes to Cats and Dogs they are such great companions and I truly enjoy seeing an animal that is pleased and satisfied with my care, as well as their owners and I will do everything to make sure that happens, I have had professional experience working for a doggie daycare business. I of course am a pet owner myself and know what its like to have to trust someone else to take care of your beautiful pet. I very much value that trust and and take the time to learn different tricks and techniques to provide the best care possible for any type of dog or cat that I could possibly encounter on a day to day basis. I am sure that I can provide a valuable service to you. I work Part-Time, and I keep a flexible schedule so I will have no issue fitting any commitments into my calendar and I always maintain clear communication. Based on discussions with the client I will give as much attention to the animal as possible during service including playing with or without toys, walks, bathroom breaks, Feeding, Cuddles etc. based on the desire of the animal.

Ashley was amazing! She watched our dogs while we were out of the country and was very communicative. She was consistent with visit times and sent pictures each time. We felt super comfortable and were able to relax on vacation knowing our dogs were taken care of! Highly recommend!

So great with Ava, my pup. I was away out of town for several days, and I could tell that my dog was loved on really well because she did not act anxious when I arrived in the door or need for attention. I could tell she had gotten lots of rubs and cuddles. Just what you want for your pup when you’re away.

Abigail was a lifesaver and such a wonderful drop-in sitter for Apollo. Our regular sitter called to inform us that she was ill and Abigail stepped in at the 11th hour to help provide us with a worry-free vacation. I appreciated the fact that she provided photos, took Apollo on walks, and sent regular updates. They also went above and beyond to ensure Apollo had as safe of an environment as possible. We hope that when we need someone to look after Apollo in the future that Abigail will be available. Highly Recommended 5-star service.

Kristine was wonderful. She made friends with our notoriously shy cat, Turbo. In addition to feeding Turbo, she stayed awhile to play. She also cleaned the litter boxes, watered our plants and brought in the mail. She's the best!

Eleanor was great! Very responsive and great with our blue heeler. Moving to the area, we were nervous to leave him with someone. We saw how well he got along with Eleanor when we met and we’re happy she was able to check in on our dog. She even fixed our WiFi when it went out, haha!

About: I am a teacher on summer break! Neighbors and friends have relied on me to feed, walk, and visit their dogs during the day. Working with children requires some of the same qualities needed to work with animals. I am patient, calm, nurturing, and dependable. I am currently on summer break. I will be available most weekdays and some weekends. I can visit and provide walks during the day. I am available at various times for feeding and playing with your pet. I love to provide a friendly, safe, and fun experience for your pet. I love interacting with pets. I usually go over to feed, give fresh water, and provide bathroom breaks. If there are any specific needs for your pet, I am willing to learn and accommodate those. I enjoy making a connection and building trust with pets. You can depend on me to be on time and communicate effectively, providing you and your pet with the best experience possible.

About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life! Currently, I own two dogs and I treat them like children. I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 12. My family and friends would ask me to watch, feed, walk and play with their dog when out of town. I work from home so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I am available for weekend boarding, drop off anytime. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can play with your fur baby. I have a crate for your fur baby if needed.

Iyana watched my two cats while I was away and she went above and beyond! Iyana was kind enough to send videos and pics and you could tell how much my cats loved her. She took a lot of time to play with them and she was thorough and very communicative. I cannot wait to rebook Iyana again and I highly recommend her!

About: As a registered nurse, providing compassionate, attentive care comes naturally to me. I'm detail-oriented, dependable, and understand the importance of following routines and paying close attention to each pet's unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers a slower pace with extra cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, so I'll follow your instructions closely, keep you updated with photos and messages, and treat your pet like they're part of my own family. I'm comfortable administering oral medications if needed and am happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. While I'm continuing to grow my experience with Rover, I'm committed to earning your trust by providing reliable, loving care and giving your pet the same attention and respect I'd want someone to give my dog. I’m currently on a summer break. I’m able to care for your pet 7 days a week. I will adhere to your pets schedule and needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you're away. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special requests. In your home, I'll respect your space just as I would my own while ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and companionship. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. If I'm caring for pets in my home, they'll be welcomed into a clean, safe, and calm environment where they'll receive lots of love, supervision, playtime, and opportunities to rest. I'll stick to their normal routine as much as possible to help them feel at home and comfortable throughout their stay. Above all, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would want for my own.

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, older dogs, and cats for 4 years now. I love and care for each animal as if they are my own because I know how important a pet is to their family. I also respect all the rules given by their owners and make sure I’m following exact instructions. I also volunteered on a farm for a while as a young child and grew up taking care of my family’s chickens so animal care is something that has always been a part of my life. I am just graduated from school and getting my priorities straight so I have a very flexible schedule. When I’m working other jobs, they’re in the evenings and in my control as for scheduling and time so if there are specific needs for your pets around certain times, I can accommodate. I pet sit and homes and follow all rules that are given for me. I treat your space and your pets space with full respect and make sure I take care of it even better than my own space.

We couldn't be happier with the care our Sophia provided for our three dogs during our vacation! We have one energetic puppy and two senior dogs, all with very different needs, and they were all cared for with so much patience, love and compassion She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs were comfortable, well cared for, and getting lots of affection while we were away. Coming home to three happy, relaxed pups meant everything to us. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive. We will definitely be booking with ther again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Wendell on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 4,240 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wendell. 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 Wendell 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wendell choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Wendell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
