Gillian did a fantastic job pet sitting for our cats, tortoise, and fish. She gave updates and sent pictures daily on the animals. We will definitely ask for Gillian for any future pet sitting needs.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner and hospital pet therapy volunteer. Through friends and family, I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have remained active in retirement by walking my own dog roughly 2-3 miles a day. As a retired elementary teacher I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to devote to your dog. I don't believe in rushing visits or simply stopping by. I enjoy spending meaningful time with each dog to make sure they are happy and comfortable. I am available for home visits and dog walking. I currently own one dog and live in a condo so do not have a fenced in yard. I make sure to walk my dog at least four times a day. She is free to roam the entire house but will put herself in the basement during storms or fireworks.

About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals from horses to dogs and understand the responsibility or taking care of animals and their unique needs. I understand the importance of providing a safe and stress free environment for the pets and owners! I am a full time college student at the university of Iowa. My availability is pretty flexible for drop in visits and walks! Depending on when classes are I might have to work around them! My goal is to create a stress free environment for the animal and parent. I make sure to stay attentive to needs of the animal to keep it as safe and happy as possible. By treating every pet as my own I want to be trusting and reliable for their owners.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had dogs since I was in second grade all the way through adulthood, and I was very involved in their care—everything from daily walks to training. In high school, I even took my dog to the county fair for dog shows and attended weekly training classes, which gave me a strong understanding of behavior, patience, and positive reinforcement. More recently, I lived with a dog that I cared for daily, and I truly miss having that companionship—so I’d love to give that same care and attention to your pet! I currently have cats, so I’m very comfortable with both dog and cat personalities, routines, and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away—and to give you total peace of mind. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I prioritize clear, consistent communication. You can expect regular updates, photos, and little check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and getting attention, I’ll match their energy and treat them like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your pet! 🐾 I’m a reliable and flexible pet sitter with a schedule that allows me to offer consistent care and plenty of availability for drop-ins, walks, and visits. I typically work shifts from 11–8pm, 12–8pm, 1–9pm, and 10–2:30pm, which means I’m often available in the mornings, late evenings, and during midday gaps. My schedule also varies at times—occasionally I finish work early or don’t get booked for midday shifts—so I’m frequently able to accommodate additional drop-ins or last-minute visits. I also have weekends completely off, which gives me full availability for weekend care, extended visits, or multiple check-ins per day. I understand how important consistency and reliability are when it comes to pet care, so I always do my best to be responsive, communicative, and dependable with scheduling. If I’m available, I’ll make it work—and if my schedule opens up more, I’m happy to offer extra care when needed. Feel free to reach out with your pet’s needs and I’ll do my best to accommodate! My top priorities as a pet sitter are safety, trust, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. I provide drop-ins, dog walks, and in-home pet sitting (I do not host pets in my own home), so your pet can stay in their familiar space and routine. I believe pets feel most secure when they’re in their own environment, and I do everything I can to keep that consistency intact. When I care for your pet, I treat your home with the same respect I would expect in mine. I’m careful, responsible, and mindful of both your space and your pet’s needs. I always follow instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walking routines, or special care preferences. Safety is very important to me, especially on walks and during visits. I pay close attention to surroundings, use secure handling at all times, and make sure your pet is always comfortable and safe in my care. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet reliable, loving care in the place they feel most at home!

About: I showed pitbulls semi professionally when I was a teenager. I have lived on a farm most my life so animals and I always get along. I'm currently working from home as a Game Developer. I am on a rugby team that practices Tuesday/Thursday 6-8pm and games on Saturdays, so there are a few select times I'm not available. I have a Husky who loves making new friends and 2 cats that are indifferent to others. I enjoy spending time with animals whether its cuddles, active play, or just sitting in the room so they aren't lonely.

Rachel is amazing and I feel so fortunate that she was able to care for our very shy and skittish kitty. Communication was outstanding and she was very flexible when we unexpectedly needed to extend our stay. We felt 100% confident our beloved pet was getting the best possible care.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young. I am the biggest animal lover in my family so I am always the go-to for anyone that needs help. I have given diabetes shots and know a lot about healthcare in animals. I also love making homemade treats! I am a college student with no job so I have plenty of free time in between classes and completely free on the weekend to spend as much time as needed with your pets! My pets are always top priority so when caring for your pets, they would be my top priority as well. I like to stay active and explore trails in the area so I would provide a diversity of areas when walking as well.

About: Lived with dogs for 20 years, cats for almost 10. Worked with dogs and cats for 5 years as a sitter/walker unprofessionally. Looking to watch friendly animals looking for a companion! I work part time with short shifts in a local shop, so i’m available often and rarely out of town/completely booked. Willing to do 3+ visits daily depending on location and distance / additional fees on top. Not available to care for pets in home. Can do home visits to feed, water, walk, administer care/med routines (when informed ahead of time with proper instruction), and just chill with animals of all kinds and sizes.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - West Liberty

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 525 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Liberty. 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 West Liberty 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.

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 West Liberty. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
