About: I’ve cared for many dogs and cats for friends, family, and members of my community. My experience includes feeding, walking, providing fresh water, administering basic care, cleaning up after pets, giving plenty of attention and playtime, and following each pet’s specific routine. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their well-being at all times. I am a teacher during the school year and have a flexible schedule during evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. During the summer, I have much greater availability and can accommodate pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and other pet care needs throughout the day. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, as I have four cats of my own, and I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for every pet. I provide care in my clients’ homes through drop-in visits and dog walking services. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I work to maintain their normal routines while their owners are away. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. As a pet owner myself with four cats, I understand the importance of reliable, attentive care and will treat your pets as if they were my own.
About: I’ve taken care of all different kinds of animals for 5+ years including dogs,cats,horses and reptiles! I also have grooming experience along with sitting experience I raise Australian cattle dogs and belgain malinois so very familiar with working dogs! I also own a dog grooming salon! Hidden Creeks Pet Salon! I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for your last minute needs!! I currently have 8 pups of my own so I know how important flexibility for your pets needs is! Most of my clients like a specific schedule so that is my priority to stick to it and communicate with the owner once everything is done!!
About: I always hear people talk about the love of their pet. I understand how that feels since I now have a fur baby of my own. I work from home for the most part; therefore, I have the ability to give your fur baby the attention and care that they deserve. Pet love is the purest form of love. I have a fenced in big back yard with plenty of room for your fur baby to run and play. I also have a cozy and clean indoor space where your baby can rest and feel at home.
About: My full time job allows for flexibility during the work day and allows me to work anywhere with wifi. I can often be in the home caring for your animals or taking them out more often than a traditional sitter who works a 9-5. I dog sit for many members of my family and have had dogs since I was 2 years old. I have a lot of experience giving medication and working with elderly animals. If I am available, I would love to set up a meet and greet to see if I would be a good fit! I am also insured! I work a flexible 9-5 and can drop in to walk or spend additional time caring for your animal(s) because of the flexibility! I wake up early as well! I treat each home like I am a true guest there and treat it and the animals if they were my own. I am very respectful of the rules and furniture.
About: I am a pet sitter with a flexible schedule and have experience volunteering at a pet shelter. I would love to learn more about different breeds and unique and better ways to care for them I can do pet care daily morning or night. I live along with my mom so your pet will be supervised all hours of the day. I do not do boarding due to me living at a college dorm. Dropping in on a clients home I will be very careful of my surroundings and kindly approach your pet with grace and patience.
About: Hi! My name is Taylor and I am a caring, responsible, and patient pet lover.

I enjoy spending my time with animals and would love to my spend my time caring for your animals! Please reach out if you have any more questions and I would be glad to answer them. :) I am currently working remotely full time so I would be able to give your animals lots of attention in the mornings and evenings but I will also be able to check on them throughout my work hours. I like to meet with pet parents before staying in their home to learn their routine and how they care for their animals. I like to make a list of all the things pet parents tell me so I can ensure that I provide the best care for their animals.
About: I’ve had pets all my life. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets when help is needed or when they go on vacation. I’m currently working part-time until I’m off to college in a few weeks. I have a good amount of time to take care of people’s loved furry family members. I have lots of playing area, space, and room at my house. Also lots of grass. I can easily crate if needed or directed by owner.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Whitney is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $17 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 919 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Whitney. 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 Whitney. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
