“Tiffani has continued to be a great sitter for my cat. She has continued to be engaging with my shy pet and a once shy cat has started to come around and trust her! She sends great updates and is reliable. Highly recommend!”

About: Hello there! My name is Sara and I am an experienced pet owner and sitter. I have always loved animals and have tried to build that love and passion for animals into my daily life. I have prior experience working at an animal hospital and have been pet sitting for many years. I have worked with and owned dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and hamsters. I will treat your pet as if they were my own and give them unconditional love and exceptional care. Pets are family members, they deserve to be treated that way!

About: I’ve always had a dog within my household. I had a childhood dog when I was two and she lived for 14 years. She taught me a lot about being a dog owner and was the best dog. After losing her my family got two more dogs since it was hard not having a dog, we’ve now had them for 4.5 years. I worked at a petting farm for 3.5 years and had a lot of experience with different animals and also puppies since we had raised puppies there. At the petting farm I also worked with cats and got some experience with them. I currently work at a dog kennel and we also have cats there too. I’ve learned how to fully take care of cats, cleaning litter and the boarding rooms, feeding them, giving them medicine, and grooming them by brushing them or wiping their faces. Overall I know how to work with dogs of all ages and cats, and I love being around either of the two! :) Im currently working a part time job, I will have a lot of availability until around mid May. After May I should be flexible with any day and hours! I also plan on leaving my job in August since the kennel will be shutting down so I can fully commit to the dogs on Rover then! :) I take my dogs on walks as much as I can. My parents mainly take care of them since I am a full time student at UWW and I’m only home on the weekends. I also make sure they have food and water 24/7, I let them out as much as possible since they love being outside too even if it’s not going potty, and I give them a lot of attention anytime I see them. I do spoil my dogs a lot too and I would do the same with any dogs I meet! :)

“Dawnlea is an amazing pet sitter! My pup has separation anxiety, but she was so warm, calm, and sweet with Matilde. She cleaned up my house when she had a little bit of an accident and was extremely communicative, always providing lots of updates and photos throughout her visits too. Definitely recommended her services to everyone in the Janesville area! 😄”
“Bella did a terrific job caring for our 4 cats. She took time to play with them, and gave us extra details about how they were doing. She was reliable and left everything neat and tidy. I had to change my schedule at the last minute due to illness, and she was flexible and understanding. We would highly recommend Bella to care for your fur babies when you're away!”
“Lisa is amazing! She makes sure your dog feels safe and secure while you are away. She goes the extra mile to assure your pet has a good experience with her every single visit!”

About: I love any and all animals. I have consistently been around animals since the day I was born. I have grown up with dogs and have 20+ years of experience caring and being responsible for them. I now have my own dog, a four year old corgi named Millie. I recently switched to a remote position, so I am available to care for your pet at home any day of the week with any kind of schedule. When I am not at work, I am home enjoying the day with my dog, Millie. Depending on the animal, Millie likes to play or will give them the space that they need. We go on lots of walks, play fetch, and work on puppy puzzles. I have a dog run in my building in case the weather doesn’t allow a long, outdoor potty break. There is a park that I frequently visit with my dog a couple of blocks away. Because I am a nurse, I can care for any of your pets medical needs and I will always keep an eye on them to make sure they are safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Whitewater is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 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 783 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Whitewater. 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
