“We were extremely nervous about leaving our 5 month old kittens for a week and Laura made it a worry-free experience. She sent us pictures & videos, showed extra love to our cats, and even brought in an Amazon package for us. We couldn't be anymore grateful for Laura! Highly recommend!! Thank you, again, Laura!!”

“Laura was an exceptional care taker of our older cat while we were away. She kept us updated regularly, sent the sweetest photos, and even checked on our property after we lost power during a storm. Knowing everything was taken care of gave us so much peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for her care and kindness.”

About: I am a life long dog lover, raising dogs for the entirety of my first 18 years of life. While we live in a home where we can't keep dogs. At home we care for a menagerie of pets, including 1 cat, 2 rabbits, 3 degus, 2 budgies, 1 cockatiel, 1 painted turtle and keep 5 freshwater aquariums! I am self employed with a very flexible schedule. I try to fit in 3-5 dog walks per week. Sometimes more if my schedule allows. I am always very mindful of any pets in my care. We have a cockatiel who we allow to fly around the house, so I am always very watching and aware, ensure doors and windows are treated with care to ensure the safety of my pets.

About: We’ve had a family puppy for as long as I can remember! My brother and I do lots of volunteering between nearby shelters and we also do watch other dogs. My aunt has two German Shepards and a pit-bull that I watch quite often so I have experience with bigger dogs as well. I’m currently working a job from 8:30-4:30 PM, W- F. I can watch a dog any day during the week and or overnight as long as they can go that long without potty breaks! If the house is nearby I can go on my lunches to let the pets out :) We currently have an electric fence and colar for our puppy and are very cautious any time letting him out. I will give the same care for your puppy any time I am around it!

About: I may be new to Rover, but I am not new to caring for others. I am a lifelong dog owner and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and providing a safe, loving environment. I am also a parent and work in childcare, which has given me extensive experience with responsibility, patience, and following specific instructions. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, recognizing needs, and providing attentive care. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a loved one. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own family, and I’m happy to follow any instructions to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, especially long-term and weekend care. I’m available Thursday nights through Sundays, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care without rushing or overbooking. As a dog mom, I understand the importance of routines, exercise, feeding schedules, and recognizing pets’ needs. I’m used to planning my days around caregiving and making sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a large yard for supervised outdoor time. Since it’s not fenced, dogs are always closely monitored and leashed as needed. I have a friendly dog who enjoys company, and two children who love animals and are taught to be gentle and respectful. Pets are never left unattended. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority.

About: I grew up with large dogs growing up and currently have a pitbull named cow. I’m comfortable with most breeds and am capable of walking large dogs. I have multiple cats and am comfortable taking care of multiple pets at a time. I’m currently working part time and am looking to volunteer my time to take care of your pets. I’m happy to give walks or let you have a night out while your pet stays home. I am constantly trying to engage my pets throughout the day and give time for quiet time to decompress. I am attentive with litter boxes and making sure they get their outside time and walks.

About: All three of our animals are besties and our whole world. My husband and I have had pets my entire life :) my husband and I work together to take the best care of your animals in our home or yours! Currently my husband and I work opposite schedule, someone is often home with the animals. If not, we will confirm you are comfortable with the duration we leave (if care is in our own home). I will care for your pet in any way that is needed or requested! We give lots of attention and care because we know that pets can be uncomfortable in a new environment or with a new person! We want your pet to be comfortable in any space!

About: I have been a pet lover for my entire life. My experience ranges from watching multiple dogs for weeks at a time to just walking dogs to get them out of the house. Also, I have training from volunteering at the Genesee County Animal Control. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet! My schedule is very flexible to fit your pet's needs. Safety is my priority. I will always cater to your furry friend's needs. With my flexible schedule, I am very trustworthy and reliable. I am ready to be your best friend's best friend.

About: Hello! I've been a Registered Nurse for over 19 years in a variety of settings. I spent 10 years at the beside in hospitals, volunteered internationally, performed chronic care coordination, and abstracted data for research. I currently work remotely for a health tech company in New York City which allows me to work from anywhere in the United States. I love travel, hiking, yoga, water activities and eating! I've grown up surrounded by animals- my family had two dogs, two cats and two hamsters for many years. Every summer my extended family meets at my Grandparents' northern Michigan island cottage and we often have more dogs than people! I'm easy-going, responsible and will care for your property and pets as if they were my own. I also petsit on Trusted Housesitters while working remotely and exploring the country. I am more than happy to share the stellar reviews on that platform if you'd like to see more recent petsitting activity. I work remotely with a super flexible schedule and I love to break up time spent on my laptop with dog walks or pet playtime! I can easily care for your pets in their home environment where they are the most comfortable. This allows for the added bonus of keeping an eye on your home while you're away.

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !

About: I provide small-scale, individualized pet care with a focus on keeping each pet safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ve been providing pet care since 2012, beginning with house sitting and eventually expanding my experience to include operating my own pet-care business. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, energy levels, and needs-from energetic puppies and social butterflies to seniors and dogs who need a little extra time and patience to feel comfortable. I intentionally keep the number of pets in my care limited so I can get to know each one as an individual. I pay close attention to body language, play styles, rest needs, feeding routines, medications, and all the little quirks that make each pet unique. I offer daycare and boarding in my home, as well as house sitting and drop-in care in clients’ homes. For pets who are happiest in familiar surroundings, in-home care allows them to maintain their usual environment and routine while their family is away. My goal isn’t simply to keep your pet occupied until you return. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for and I want you to feel confident knowing they’re in attentive hands. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I provide daycare Monday through Friday and boarding based on availability, intentionally keeping my client numbers small so each dog receives plenty of individual attention, supervision, playtime, and rest. I also offer house sitting for pets who are happiest staying in their own home. Because I may have daycare clients during the day, house-sitting pets should be comfortable with me being away during my normal working hours. When appropriate and arranged in advance, some house-sitting dogs may also be able to accompany me to daycare. I limit bookings and coordinate my schedule carefully so I can maintain each pet’s normal feeding, potty, exercise, medication, and bedtime routines. My goal is to provide reliable care without overbooking myself or compromising the attention any pet receives. Safety and comfort are always my priorities. In my home, dogs are supervised and introduced thoughtfully rather than simply placed together. I keep my number of clients intentionally small, which allows me to monitor interactions, recognize when a dog needs a break, and provide separate spaces for feeding, resting, or decompression when needed. My home has a securely fenced 6-foot yard for supervised outdoor time. I also have secure containment options available when needed and never assume that a new dog can safely be left loose with other dogs. Each new family begins with a Meet & Greet so I can learn about your dog’s personality, play style, routine, boundaries, and any behaviors I should be aware of before their first stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the household and pet-care instructions provided to me as closely as possible. I respect your pet’s established routine as well as your home, including instructions regarding doors, gates, walks, feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements, and home security. I’m also careful about entry and exit to help prevent escapes. Whether your pet stays with me or I stay with them, I believe good care means paying attention. I monitor behavior, appetite, energy level, bathroom habits, interactions, and overall comfort and will communicate with you if I notice something unusual. My goal is to provide an environment where both you and your pet can feel secure and comfortable.

We recently had the pleasure of having Ariel take care of our cat and we could not have had a better pet sitter! She is reliable and caring and her dedication went above and beyond our expectations. We deeply appreciated her willingness to stay longer than scheduled to ensure our cat was safe before she left. Communication was fantastic - we loved the updates and photos after each visit. We highly recommend Ariel for anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter!

Thank you so much Kristopher! We have struggled to find good care for our Aussie when we go away and I am so thankful to have found Kristopher. The communication was great, he is undaunted by my dog and willing to go with what the dog is used to at our home. In just this one interaction, I felt our families had similar values and this made leaving Jesse in his care very comfortable. There were some fun extras to the visit and Jesse was very well cared for. Thankful and hopeful for get-aways to come. Great experience all the way around.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Whitneyville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Whitneyville is $37 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $48 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 1,477 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Whitneyville. 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 Whitneyville. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 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.
