“Cindy was great with our dogs while we were on vacation. She was very good at communicating with me how things were going with them and it made me feel so much better knowing our dogs could stay in the comfort of their home while we were gone and receive amazing care.”

About: My 17 years of experience as a dog owner has given me a deep understanding of each dogs unique needs and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all ages and sizes—whether in my home or theirs—tailoring my care based on each dog’s unique needs. Whether it's providing extra attention for senior dogs, teaching a puppy basic manners, or adapting to any special requirements, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and well-cared for. Since my Australian Shepherds don’t have a flock of sheep to herd, I’m their "job" instead! When I’m at home, they’re my loyal little shadows. They’re surprisingly chill for Aussies, but I like to think it’s because I’m an awesome dog mom... and they’re technically working most of the day as my supervisors. They make sure everything runs smoothly by reminding me if I'm even a minute late with their meals, when it’s time for potty breaks, when to wake up my son, when it’s time to play—the list goes on! I offer caring and reliable dog sitting and walking services tailored to keep your pup happy, healthy, and engaged. As a proud owner of two Australian Shepherds, I understand the importance of attention, exercise, and companionship for dogs. Whether it's a stroll around the neighborhood, a quick potty break, or some fun playtime in a safe and nurturing environment, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away. I provide both in-home dog sitting, so your dog can remain in the comfort of their own space, as well as dog sitting at my home for longer care needs. My dogs are friendly and enjoy making new friends, so your pup will have plenty of companionship during their stay. While I do have a crate available if needed, please note that I do not have a fenced-in yard. My dogs love off-leash play, so if your dog needs to be kept on a leash outdoors, please provide clear care instructions to ensure their safety and comfort.

“Alex did a wonderful job with taking care of my 3 dogs for 2.5 days. The 2 small poodles (mix) ones were good as usual, my youngest and most tentative, larger American Staffordshire mix take a little warming up to. After a few 4 visits, Alex broke this ice her.”

“Christine answered my last minute request right away. She visited with my dog, Payton , who was recently injured while we were gone. She sent pictures and communicated with me during her visit with Payton helping me to relax and be sure she was well taken care of.”

About: We have always had dogs since i was a little girl. I am now 48, four grown children and divorced. I have the time and desire to care for other animals. Dogs love me as they are a great judge of character. I have dogs sat for weeks at a time. I enjoy playing with them as Im still a kid at heart. I don't mind a clingy animal as I love the affection. I have trained my dog to speak, high five and most recently ride with me on my Harley! I am disabled so I do not work outside the home. I wake up around 9am, let my dog out to go potty. Give him breakfast and flea prevention meds. I try to play with him in the house for twenty minutes a day. As his type of breed, he needs to burn off energy. I let him out for exercise and a bathroom rig, at least four times during the day. I put him to bed around 9pm. Some nights, he sleeps with me, other nights he gets crated. I have a fenced in yard, with room to play. My scooby enjoys playing with other dogs. Scooby gets crated when he is not supervised and sometimes overnight. I have no problem trading other pets. I do have a sleeping room for pets who are not crated. I would prefer to dog sit overnight in the client's home. I own a cleaning business with five stars. So I am well trusted in the community.

“Janette was amazing, 10/10 recommend her! She accepted my last minute booking on a very busy weekend, communicating quickly and kindly to coordinate the drop-in. She did an amazing job of communicating before, during, & after the drop-in even when I wasn't able to promptly answer her. Janette even went above & beyond - going out on a limb to greet my very scared cats with treats!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wheatfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wheatfield is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 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 321 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wheatfield. 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 Wheatfield. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 .

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.
