“Kendall is incredibly kind, patient, and reliable. She took wonderful care of our 10-year-old cat while we were out of town, and we came home knowing our cat had been well looked after. We really appreciated her care and attention, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Elizabeth was great with our new puppy! She had a super flexible schedule and was able to come check on her three times a day, which was a lifesaver. We would definitely recommend booking with her! ☺️”
“Kristen was fantastic. We were in NC during Helene and didn't have to worry about our girl at all. She went above and beyond to make sure our kitty was ok, along with our home. We will be booking her again as early as next month. I highly recommend her to take care of your loved pets. She is simply wonderful 😊”

“Ryngo has been getting the attention she needs while I am at work! She has been doing a fantastic job keeping me updated and making sure my pup gets her potty and meal breaks while I’m gone :) I look forward to continuing to book her during my work hours!”
“Maria was fantastic! Very communicative with updates about our kitties and included lots of pictures. She was very professional and was best friends with our more timid cat by the end of the week. Highly recommend!”

About: I rescued Griffin in 2016 from a shelter in North Carolina. Since then we’ve worked a lot on his fears and training - all self-taught/trained. I have experience both with oral medications, and injections (although the only injections I've ever had to do were on cats). I worked at a vet clinic briefly for a summer helping out with the animals that had to stay overnight. On the weekends, your pet will get plenty of play time with me. During weekdays, I am available to stop by for quick 30 minutes walks, letting your pet out for the bathroom, and feeding. I work 9am-5pm Monday through Friday so services will be worked around that or during my lunch hour. I love animals, especially rescues, and look forward to meeting your pet! I work full-time for the State but I work remote 2 days per week and have a flexible schedule to allow me to be home on days that aren’t my normal 2 work from home days. Weekends I am around and will be able to give your pet all the care they need. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible so I always let them check out my place before releasing my dog from my bedroom. I’ll set up your pet’s bed or they can use any of the ones I have for my dog. Nothing is left out that your pet could be injured on as I have a dog of my own.
About: There are no dogs in my household except yours! Specialized focused dog care for your furbabies. I dog sit as it is a way for me to get my exercise and maintain my needed fur baby time. I enjoy getting outside and the exercise. I only watch one dog or multiple dogs from the same family. I do not have any full-time dogs at home myself. I have two cats that love dogs (or go hide away - they do not bother dogs) I take care of your dog like my own. I will let your dog out and walk him/her every 2-4 hours. I don’t like dogs be left home alone more than four hours. I walk trails often and hit the dog parks regularly - if you allow that. I am self-employed and am in at out of my house all day. Most of the time I’m doing projects around my house or walking on the trails somewhere. I love taking dogs with and enjoying their company. Quiet household with ONLY ADULTS We have deeded Lake Macatawa Access and a park nearby. We are located on the Macatawa Bike trail (near Dunton park)
“Noelani was super helpful with a last-minute booking! The flexibility and communication was so helpful and I am super grateful! Storm loved the time she got to spend with Noelani while we were away. Thank you for keeping her safe and comfortable and fed!”
About: I got my first dog when I was 14, and caring for her taught me what it truly means to love and be responsible for a pet. She was part of my family for many years, and after she passed away a few years ago, I realized how rewarding it is to care for animals. Since then, friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they're away. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My background working in healthcare has also made me dependable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, medication, or just some extra attention, I'll treat them like they're my own. I currently work full-time, but I have availability before work, in the evenings, and on weekends for dog walks and drop-in visits. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about my schedule. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll make sure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any special needs. I'm attentive to changes in behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.
“She is a rover magician. Dog would not eat dinner, so she pretended to stir it so he would get interested and eat it, which he did. She was also flexible when we needed to move the visit time due to a miscommunication on our end. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been a dog and/or cat owner my entire life. I believe our pets are family members and treat them as such. I have provided care for many different dog breeds, as well as cats, and am also experienced in giving medicine and administering shots. Let me share my love of animals with your precious pet(s)! I have done medical transcription for over 35 years and can do it from anywhere, so I am available 24/7 to care for your pet. I can care for your pet(s) in your home just as if you were there. I am also able to do any routine tasks required (take out trash bins, plant watering, lawn maintenance, or any other chores needed).
About: Young professional who loves to spend time with dogs in my free time. My free time is usually spent at home watching movies and just relaxing. What better way to spend my free time than with man's best friend at home as well. New to the area so I enjoy the company of dogs. Growing up in rural Indiana I was always around dogs whether our own or neighbors. Enjoy getting out and taking walks in new areas to explore. Have lots of free time when not working and would love to spend my time getting to hang out with new furry friends. Dog walking is another way of exercise for myself for myself when I am not spending time at the local gym. A
About: I've taken care of cats for about 12 years and I'm very good with my friends' dogs. I tend to get along very well with animals and I love taking care of them! I'm currently a student but am fairly flexible when it comes to figuring out times to take care of your pet! Let me know your needs and I will do my best to fulfill them. I am very patient and kind with animals. I'll make sure I'm thorough about discussing your pets' needs with you and will follow your instructions well
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, and having dogs as part of my life has given me a genuine appreciation for the companionship, joy, and unconditional love they bring. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I believe they all deserve patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. Now that I’m retired, I have more time to devote to caring for dogs and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their families are away. Whether your dog needs a potty break, a little playtime, fresh water, or simply some company and attention, I’ll treat them with the same care and consideration I would want for my own dog. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll do my best to give both you and your furry family member peace of mind. Retirement has given me the wonderful opportunity to spend more time doing things I love, and caring for dogs is a great way to spend that time! I understand that pets are family, and I believe they deserve lots of love, attention, patience, and care. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet with someone else. I will treat your pet with the same kindness and care I would want for my own, and I’m happy to keep you updated so you know how things are going.
About: I have been obsessed with dogs since I was little. Always wanting to have one, pet one, and just interact with one. I currently have a GSD, who is a handful, that I love dearly. I’m currently working 12 hour shifts with a rotating schedule. My available days change every week, but I know my schedule very far out in advance. I am very mindful of doors being closed all the way before and after taking your furry baby for a walk. Will provide them with water and treats before and after. I can also put them back into their crate before leaving if required.
About: My name is Josh Clemens and I am a dog person. I have had animals my entire life, and I personally trained my own service dog. I truly believe animals are better than people and I love spending time with them. For me time with your pet isn’t a chore, it’s an opportunity to make a friend! I know each pet is different and I work hard to meet each client’s specific needs. I love animals and if you choose to work with me, I believe you’ll see, they love me too! I only care for pets in client’s homes, not my own home. I specialize in custom in home service. I want your pet to feel like nothing has changed. I care for all the animals I work with as if they were my own, and I’m willing to do whatever is necessary to make my customers happy. Every first visit comes with a free toy! I work part time remotely so my schedule can be changed and worked around so no change in your pets’ schedules will be needed. For them it will be as if nothing has changed. I care for pets in my clients homes not my own home. I will come to your house and stay there essentially 24/7 to make sure your pets have optimal care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Whitestown is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 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 2,501 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Whitestown. 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 Whitestown. On Rover:
- 88% 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.
