“Noa took wonderful care of our cats, Linux and Array, over a long holiday trip. She was reliable, communicative, and very attentive. She sent regular updates, photos, and videos, and clearly took the time to make sure the cats were comfortable and well cared for. She also went above and beyond by alerting us to and handling an unexpected issue with a frozen hose, which we really appreciated. Our home was left in great condition, and it was clear the cats were happy and safe while we were away. This was Noa’s first time using Rover, and she did an amazing job. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

“Deven is absolutely amazing! She cared for my cats as if they were their own—attentive, loving, and incredibly reliable. I felt completely at ease knowing my babies were in such good hands. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which added to the quality of care. When I came home, my cats were happy, and my home was just as I left it. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and would recommend Deven to anyone who wants peace of mind and truly outstanding care for their pets! I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: I bring 12 years of cat experience to the table, which means I understand everything from litter box politics to the fine art of being ignored. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all personalities, shy, spicy, clingy, or aloof, and I know how to keep their routine calm and predictable. I also have 5 years of experience helping with dogs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care. Cats may be my specialty, but I’m happy to care for dogs and make sure they’re safe, exercised, and well looked after. What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience and attention to detail. I respect boundaries, follow instructions closely, and focus on making pets feel secure in their own space. I take pet care seriously, while still enjoying every minute of it. During weekdays, I’m available from 3:30 PM to 3:30 AM, allowing for evening and overnight care. On weekends and holidays, I’m available all day, offering flexible and reliable pet care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, respect routines, and provide attentive, reliable care in your home or mine.

About: I’m currently a veterinarian assistant who has a Great Pyrenees, German Shepherd, Tortishell Kitty, and a cute little bearded dragon. I’m experienced with administering medications and basic grooming. I’m a firm believer that all fur and furless babies deserve love and respect and I treat them all like my very own. I am a full time Veterinarian Assistant during weekdays, but I can still swing by and say hi to the little babies. I can board or home visit anytime during the weekends! I have a fenced in yard and a sweet German Shepherd who LOVES playing with pups and is extremely gentle with kitties. I also have the ability to keep pups or cats that might not be too happy with another dog in a separate area. I enjoy recording most of my interactions with fur babies and sending the videos to you!

About: I’ve been surrounded by paws and wagging tails my whole life—basically raised in a household where the vacuum was always full of fur and the treat jar was never empty. Growing up, I cared for all kinds of pets, including those with special needs, health issues, and daily medications (yes, even the ones who could sniff out a pill from a mile away). Since 2018, I’ve been a pet parent myself, and let’s just say my dogs are spoiled with love, belly rubs, and probably way too many photoshoots. I genuinely love being around dogs—whether it’s playtime, snuggle time, or just chillin’ in the same room while they nap like champions. Every dog I meet gets treated like my own: with patience, joy, and the kind of love that involves goofy voices and spontaneous dance parties during walks. Whether your pup needs high-energy play or calm companionship, I’ve got them covered—and I’ll probably fall a little bit in love with them too. I currently work until 2 every weekday, so I can come by to make my visits, give my pets, and take them on walks as soon as I’m done! My weekends are typically completely free so I can easily come by to snuggle and hang out with the kiddos when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and seen - even in a short visit. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and water refills to medication and litter box clean-up. I take time to play, cuddle (if they’re into it!), and give them the attention they need to feel calm and cared for while their people are away. I also treat every home with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine, keeping things clean, secure, and leaving everything as I found it. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a play session, or just keeping your pet company, I show up with intention and care every time.

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.

“Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. From puppies to senior dogs. Ive turned aggressive dogs calm. Understanding your dog and its triggers are key. I will treat your pet like it’s my own. Lots of love and playful stimulation. I’m not just watching your dog, I’m creating a bond. Creating a safe space for your pup to be able to relax and have fun. Building trust with you is step 1. I am available anytime for your fur babies needs. I can handle up to 2 dogs at a time. Plenty of play time and potty breaks. I have an open yard. Not big but big enough to play. I use e collars to help direct playtime and to have control over them as needed. Dogs roam freely in the house when I am home. They go in crate if I am not. Multiple post breaks and plenty of playtime and healthy stimulation

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve primarily cared for small and medium-sized dogs, but I’ve also had experience with larger dogs, including my roommate's two who were very cautious and selective about who they trusted. Somehow, they quickly decided I was one of their people! My family and friends also regularly trust me with their furry family members and often come to me for advice. I currently have a cat of my own who requires medication and has some behavioral quirks, so I’m comfortable with the extra patience, consistency, and attention that pets with special needs may require. I’ve always been the person animals seem to gravitate toward wherever I go. My mom has jokingly called me the “cat whisperer” for years, especially! I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their humans are away. I am self-employed and make my own schedule - I am very flexible so I am able to work from virtually anywhere and at any time, so fitting in any set care is very easy! I always want to make sure I earn the trust, respect, and love of the pets by being gentle, caring, and loving and showing them they can trust me. This often looks like some extra cuddles, a treat, some play time during quick drop-ins etc! There's nothing better than earning a fur baby's trust :)

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: My mom calls me Snow White, because animals come to me and I'm always rescuing something. I get it rightfully. My grandfather kept dogs, goats, pigs, and at one point a monkey. The monkey was before my time, but the soft spot for animals got passed down. I've had dogs of my own for 20 years, and there have only been about six months of my life entire without one. Today I share my home with three dogs, a cat, and a bunny, and I've cared for chinchillas and hedgehogs too. Along with dogs, I'm happy to visit cats, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. Have a different kind of pet? Message me and we'll see if it's a good fit. I'm comfortable giving oral medications. Seniors, puppies, and shy pets are all welcome. As a real estate agent, I set my own schedule, so I can plan visits around your pet's routine. [I'm available mornings, midday, and evenings, including weekends and holidays.] My own day already starts and ends with feeding, walks, and cleanup for three dogs, a cat, and a bunny, so your pet's visit fits into a routine I already keep. Once I confirm a visit, it goes on my calendar like a closing. I've been a licensed real estate agent since 2010, so being trusted with other people's keys and homes is what I do for a living. I'll treat yours the same way: locked up behind me and left just as I found it. On a drop-in visit, I follow your pet's routine: meals, potty breaks, playtime, or just company for the ones who'd rather sit next to someone. I'm comfortable with dogs of every size, from toy breeds to the big ones, and all energy levels. After every visit, I'll send photos and a quick note on how it went.

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!

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.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wendell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wendell is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $29 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 4,345 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wendell. 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.

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
  • 94% 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.

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.
