About: Hello there! If you’re new to Rover and this would be your first booking, then you can save $20 by entering the promo code: BENC05789 We hope our 5-star reviews speak for themselves- we love animals! We’ve enjoyed meeting new families in the area and helping them care for their fur babies while they’re away 🐶🐱 We only take ONE family’s pets at a time, and we don’t have any pets of our own, so you don’t have to worry about safety or peace of mind for your furry friends. We would love to host your dog or cat at our place- we welcome all animals here! We have a big fenced-in backyard, and always have a stash of toys and treats on hand. We want your pet to feel like they are on their own little vacation, too 😅 ***If you happen to live in downtown Wendell, and you’d rather keep your dog at your own house while you’re away, ask about us doing home check-ins, even if our calendar says we’re booked! *** We have been doing Rover since 2021 as a side-hustle while Julie was in school studying ultrasound, which allowed her more time to be at home. She graduated in May of this year, and now has a part time job of her own. So for our current schedule, there will be one day during the week where she will be home all day, and one half day during the week for me. In addition, we will both be home on weekends. If your dog requires a lot of attention during the day, and is used to someone being home at all times, we understand if you decide to look elsewhere! We absolutely love animals, and our house feels pretty empty without our Rover pals 🙂 We plan on doing Rover throughout the summer + beginning of fall 2025, and then will probably phase it out for any newcomers. We can’t wait to meet your pup if you do decide to book with us! We will care for your pet’s every need! We like to take them on walks twice a day (we need the exercise, too!😅). We also are perfectly comfortable administering medications, if needed. We will give them plenty of cuddles, playtime, and love ☺️

“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!”

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.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 18, providing pet-sitting services for neighbors, friends, and family. My experience includes caring for puppies, young animals, adult pets, cats, and senior dogs including my parents 14-year-old dog. I understand that every stage of life comes with different needs, from the energy and patience required for puppies to the gentle, attentive care needed by senior pets. I’m passionate about providing dependable, compassionate care and treating every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to accommodate your pet’s needs. I can work with you to find a schedule that fits your routine and helps ensure your pets receive the care, attention, and love they deserve while you’re away! We have two dogs, a Silver Lab and a Great Pyrenees, who are both very playful and active. They use a Halo wireless fence system to safely enjoy outdoor time, and I also have a large crate available as needed. My pig has a separate fenced-in area. Our fur babies and your fur babies are always welcome inside our home and are treated like family! I believe all pets deserve a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, affection, and care.

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: 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 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

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 $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 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 4,301 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 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 Wendell. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
