Chok is the most caring and conscientious cat sitter I’ve ever had. Leaving your pets behind is always stressful, but she immediately put my mind at ease. Melody and Houdini instantly connected with her—they usually take time to warm up to new people, but they absolutely adored her! She was incredibly attentive to their routines, extremely thorough with the care instructions, and treated my home with the utmost respect. It is so clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell from her detailed updates and photos/videos she sent that my cats were in fantastic hands the entire time. ***Chok also administered asthma medicine to one of my cats (an inhaler using Aerotek chamber and mask). If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable sitter who will treat your fur babies like her own, look no further. I am so grateful for her and will definitely be booking her again! Chok is amazing!

About: I’ve taken care of and trained my own dog and cat for the past 6 years and before that, dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors for several years, including walking, feeding, bathing, playing, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m super comfortable with energetic pets who need exercise, as well as shy or older pets who need extra care, calm attention, and consistency. I will always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I've also taken care of birds, mice, and bunnies, so I would love to help out with any of those, too! I'm currently a University of Pennsylvania student home for the summer! I'm working an internship but am completely free in the evenings and on the weekends! I make safety and comfort my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, triggers, and favorite things so they feel secure and cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and send regular updates. I’m attentive on walks, careful around other animals, and always make sure pets get the right mix of exercise, affection, and calm downtime. At my own home, I have a large completely fenced yard with cameras for additional safety. I also live across the street from a park so for the energetic ones, I have lots of opportunities to take them out!

About: I’ve looked after dogs of all types of dogs. Small, large, fluffy, skinny, you name it. Also love cats and looking after them as well. Would love to expand my horizons to other, less conventional pets some day. Maybe reptiles… I have lived with one or more pets consistently for more than half my life. Many pets and creatures I’ve called my friends. Would love to make it a full-time job someday. I act lovingly and compassionately towards the animals I’m watching, but show them that things like jumping and biting are not okay when considering how their trainers want their training schedule to look like. Every animal is different, so I take an individual approach.

About: I’ve taken care of big dogs and cats. I find it easy to connect and bond with animals. Me and my partner have a cat that stays at his place. Since I’m self-employed, I’m pretty much free any weekday at any time to take care of your furry friends! This includes morning, afternoon and nights. I would prefer to not care for pets in my home unless it’s a cat or small dog as my space wouldn’t be ideal for bigger dogs

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and they tend to trust me quickly. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years, including dogs, small animals, and birds. I successfully home-trained my rabbit and hand-trained and hand-tamed four parakeets, helping them feel comfortable and bonded with me within their first week at home. I’m very patient, calm, and attentive, which helps pets feel safe and relaxed in my care. I make sure all pets are fed on time, well cared for, and given plenty of love and attention. I also have experience caring for my godsister’s and cousins’ dogs, including a beagle and a dachshund. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and genuine care. I have a rabbit named miffy, a parakeet named Beaky. I feed and water them everyday as well as charge the litter box of my rabbit as I trained him to learn to do his business in his litterbox. I also help my disabled neighbor walk their dog whenever nobody is home I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in my home or a client’s (or neighbors) home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I take time to build trust with every pet, allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I keep environments clean, calm, and secure, and I make sure pets are supervised, well-cared-for, and given plenty of attention and affection at all times.

Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.

About: Hi! I’m [Your Name], a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet care professional. With years of hands-on experience walking and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and safe. Reliability, communication, and genuine care are at the heart of everything I do. Let me give your dog the love and exercise they deserve — tails will wag, I promise! On an average I run 4-6 miles daily. As a digital artist who works from home I tend to find myself with a lot of energy left and lots of times I would rather spend with animals and being active at that. As a husky owner and a dog that needs lots of attention and walks, my dog is my best friend. He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.

Thank you, Brianna, for taking care of my elderly cats for two weeks! Usually, when I leave them, they get upset and could pee all over and make a mess. At this time, I came back to the clean apartment, and my cats were healthy and cheerful 😻.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. I currently care for my own dog and have helped friends and family with pet sitting, walking, feeding, and maintaining daily routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet (they are literally like our children) I treat every animal like my own. I am going on maternity leave so i will not be working. I am currently an emt for fdny. I am ready to spend time walking pets around the neighborhoods and spending time in the outdoors! I am ready to heal my body while also feeling the peace of an animals presence❤️ In my own home i have 1 dog who is fully trained and crate trained although we dont need it at this point. I have fostered dogs in the past, tried to help train them and give them love. I like to walk a lot/go hiking and get fresh air. I have heard so many horror stories about people that were hired from this app and so many other platforms. I just want to be my clients peace of mind. I will treat every fur baby like my own and want to gain 100% trust from everyone that needs my services!

About: I really pay attention to each pet’s routine and the little things they do like their body language, energy level, and what makes them feel comfortable or stressed. I try to keep everything as close to their normal schedule as possible so they feel safe and settled, even when their owner isn’t home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule because I’m available Monday through Saturday. I make time each day for walks, check-ins, and any care pets need. I stay flexible so I can follow each pet’s routine and keep them comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I always focus on making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable whether I’m in my home or the client’s home. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible like feeding times, walks, play, and anything specific the owner asks for. When I’m in a client’s home I respect their space and keep everything clean and secure. I always double check doors and gates to make sure the pet stays safe. I also pay close attention to how the pet is acting so I can tell right away if they need something or seem uncomfortable. My goal is to keep things stress free so pets feel relaxed and owners feel confident their pet is being well cared for.

About: I am a very patient and outgoing person. I give all animals the upmost care and affection as if they were my own. One thing my job has taught me is that every pet is different, but they all have something in common and that is to live life to the fullest in their forever homes and eat as many treats as they can. Pets appreciate everything you do for them and I am positive yours will appreciate you when choosing me for your pet care. I have worked in the veterinary care field for over 5 years, and have done dog/cat sitting for most of my life so pet care is a part of my life 24/7. During our meet and greet I’d like to know what helps your babies feel relaxed and comfortable as if you never left. We will go over all the important things like feeding instructions and any special needs. Then we will discuss where everything is located so I can provide plenty of water, food and treats, and of course play time for them.

About: **Current References Available By Request** Hi there! My ultimate passion is working with animals. My dream would be to work with pets/animals full time! I'm 29 years old and I have 12 years combined experience with fur babies, both dogs and cats! As well as feathery friends! I've been a sitter, walker and worked at a shelter/boarding business. I am happy when I'm around pets and spend most of my days in a doggie pile, a cat curled in my lap, and my birdie on my face or nibbling on my hair. I absolutely love animals and can provide all the specific love and attention your pet needs. I know all pets are different and have different needs and I want to make sure they are getting the care they need and deserve. :) I can provide the following services for dogs, cats or both: Walking Drop by (feed, give medicine, and play) And short-term sitting (1-5 nights) If you have any questions about my services feel free to message me and I will get back to you promptly. I can't wait to help you and your lovies! :) I am currently working remote and I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I'm available most of the day for walkies and drop-bys. I have cared for many different kinds of pets for 12 years. I have worked with dogs, cats, and birds in various environments. My priority is to keep your pet/pets safe and happy.

Fadong was excellent!! I needed someone very last minute and reached out to several people early in the morning, and he replied immediately and assured me my boy would be in the best hands. And he meant it! He was very communicative, on time, and very attentive and loving with my Biggie. I am very happy with his care and highly recommend him to any other person looking for high quality care for their pups.

Leona was amazing with our dog Doeby! Doeby is a very large energetic dog that requires constant attention and Leona provided everything that Doeby needed. Doeby appeared happy in every photo that Leona sent us. 10/10 service. She went above and beyond and allowed us to enjoy our wedding weekend without having to worry about Doeby. We will definitely be hiring her again.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Whitestone

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Whitestone on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 26,114 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Whitestone. 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 Whitestone 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 Whitestone 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 Whitestone 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 Whitestone. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
