“I am beyond grateful for Alison’s exceptional care of my dog. Not only did they provide all the basics—feeding, walks, and playtime—but they went the extra mile to make sure my dog was safe during a snowstorm. She was incredibly. It was evident that Alison thought about my dog and when above and beyond and truly cares about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, thank you for your kindness and dedication!”
“As always, Susan took great care of my cat! She truly cares about him and getting to know his personality, and putting up with his silly antics. Thankful to have such a great sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our Alexis. She was always on time, extremely dependable, and very easy to work with. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. She absolutely loved her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. Communication was great, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. The quality of care and reliability made it completely worth it. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets!”
About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a big yard that's about 70 yards deep and I have a secured lead in both front and back yards. For added safety, I attach an air tag to your pets collar. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. I'm not a fan of dog parks. I prefer to select my walking path to ensure your pets safety. I live alone.
About: I have had my current dog for 13 years and raised from a puppy. I love to exercise dogs and will be patient while they explore their senses. I am also comfortable with house training puppies. I am currently working full time Monday through Friday so would be available early morning and 5 PM or later during the week. I am available throughout the day most weekends. Because I have 3 senior pets who are very set in their ways, I would only be available for drop in visits at your home or walks from your home.
“Cathy was fantastic looking after our cats. We got lots of photos each day, which our previous Rover didn’t do. We will definitely have Cathy watch our cats next time we head out of town.”
About: I have 2 years of experience caring for my own Bichon Frisé and have always loved taking care of animals. I’m responsible, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own I’m able to plan visits around my work schedule and make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m dependable and will always communicate with you about timing and your pet’s routine I have a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly home where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I also have access to a dog park. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while they’re away from home
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with two of my own a 7-year-old Golden Retriever and a 3-year-old Lab/Aussie mix. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have years of experience dog sitting. I treat every dog like family and am comfortable with all breeds and energy levels. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help! I'm a graduate student at Xavier University with a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks or check-ins throughout the day and can also stop by in the evenings after class. With my experience and having dogs of my own I am able to ensure dog safety and that their needs are met. I will also treat your dogs as if they are my own.
About: Hello! I know that I would be a wonderful pet sitter for you as I truly understand how much your dog means to you as I am a dog parent myself. I have a 9 year old Bluetick Coonhound who has taught me the importance of patience, consistently, attention, and-of course-plenty of pets and playtime! I treat every pet in my car as if they are my own, taking the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs. My goal is to not only provide dependable care, but to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. My regular work allows me the opportunity to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to provide attention, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and playtime throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. During drop in visits, I provide dependable, personalized, care in the comfort of your pet’s home. I can accommodate their regular routine by providing potty breaks, fresh food and water, attention, playtime, and walks when appropriate. Most importantly, I focus on making each visit a positive experience by giving your pet companionship, comfort, and the individual care they need while you’re away.
About: I have experience pet sitting for friends and neighbors since high school and would love caring for your pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have a job but my time is very flexible due to me being an on demand worker! I am able to stay for as long as you need and do many walks I am good with following whatever routine your dog might have including feeding, walking, playing, fresh water ect. As for my pets I have 3 sweet cats and 1 dog who I love spending time with. They are very happy and loved.
About: I've housesat and taken care of dogs for friends and family members since I was a kid. I've been told I have an energy that animals really respond to. I can no longer have a pet of my own, and I miss my dog every day, I just want to be around dogs again, and help out pet parents. I just opened a bar on my own so it is practically impossible for me to have a dog full time, but my schedule is also flexible enough where I could make sure to give a lot of attention to a dog on a part time basis. I am happy to watch a dog at your home or mine, I have a fenced yard and plenty of parks and trails nearby to walk around.
“This was my first time using Elisabeth and I am very satisfied with her services! She was very attentive and informative in the notes and made me feel calm and at ease when she cared for my fur babies. I definitely would use her again and recommend her to others.”
“Archie hit it off with Gregory immediately and was rewarded with visits that were like clockwork. Gregory is a true dog lover and gave Archie that personal attention our dog needed to make sure both his physical and emotional needs were taken care of. Knowing Gregory was looking in on our pup made our vacation much more carefree.”
“Steven has watched my pups on 2 different occasions and he is terrific. I have 3 dogs and they’re a lot of work. He handles them with patience and compassion.”
“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life! I like to roller skate with my dad’s dog, Bellevue. I think pets should be spoken to like they absolutely know what we are saying. I’m currently in NKY for an extended time for family matters and I am completely free to provide pet care to those who need it. I will give them love and adoration. They will be on leash, unless instructed otherwise… I think daily exercise is important for both human and pets alike.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wilder is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $31 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 2,213 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wilder. 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 Wilder. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
