About: I love each animal as if they were my own. I have experience in taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I have patience, compassion and a lot of love to give to animals. I am flexible with anything. I have experience in dog walking, house sitting for families with fur babies and having dogs stay at my home when their owners are away. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who live at home currently with me, a 12 year old Cocker Spaniel and a 4 year old Catahoula Australian shepherd mix.
“Darlyn was very informative on how the dogs were being cared for. She also sent pictures so that I would not have to be so worried. It was my first time and I am going to be using her again. Thank you so much, Rover It was a pleasure and for having a great team member.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog/pet owner and have had my own dog for 6 years. I enjoy staying busy, and would love to spend time with dogs when I’m free! I live in an apartment near Willow Bend, but would be willing to drive a moderate distance to watch your pup! I am a movie lover who enjoys spending the day lounging around or playing with my 12 pound Chihuahua/ Pinscher mix! My family lives close by and we frequently have dog play dates. I allow dogs on my furniture and keep them out in the house whenever I am home. Your dog will get plenty of attention, excercise, and love will you are away! Thanks! I work full time, 9-5, however when I am watching your furbaby, all of my free time will be devoted to them for play and love! I am not available for boarding in my own home, but I am available for house sits and drop ins! When I am in your home, your pets are my top priority. I prefer to spend my time with them, and will treat them as if they were my own. Our time will be spent playing inside, or enjoying the fresh air outside in your backyard or on walks. I am also unbothered by dogs on furniture, and am familiar with all personalities. If you prefer to have your pets kenneled when I am away, that will be no issue.
About: I’ve helped take care of various dogs and an elderly cat for several years. I am used to going on walks with the pets and needing to give medicine if needed. I love bonding with all animals and am a dog and cat lover alike. I had spent my time previously looking after a cat when the owner would travel for extended periods of time. The cat unfortunately has passed and I am now looking to care for other animals. I am extremely communicative, honest, and patient, and reliable. I do have a full time job however I am more than happy to care in the mornings before 8 AM and in the afternoons after 5:15 PM. I am also available all weekends Friday-Saturday If I am caring for your pet in your home then I will ensure that all needs are met, including yours while you are away. I am extremely communicative and thorough, and will make sure to follow all instructions as needed. I will never do anything to make my clients feel uncomfortable. If in my home, they will be able to relax with ease as I am laidback as well. I do live in apartments that’s requires stairs but that should not be a problem. You can be rest assured that your pet will be comfortable no matter where it is they are!
“This was my second time booking with Natalie for my two cats while I was out of town and I had another overall great experience! The cats were well cared for and my home was the same as when I had left. Would definitely book with her again :)”

About: I bring over 25 years of professional hospitality and operations experience, where trust, organization, and care were at the center of everything I did. I’ve managed households and provided personal support at the highest levels, and I treat pet care with the same level of responsibility. I’m reliable, attentive, and adaptable, which means your pets will always feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.” Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I typically schedule walks in the morning and evening, feed pets on a consistent schedule, and provide playtime and attention throughout the day. I also make sure to monitor their health and behavior, give medications if needed, and maintain a clean, safe environment. On a weekly basis, I incorporate longer walks, grooming, or additional activities depending on the pet’s needs. My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate different pets and their routines, ensuring they feel cared for and loved. I provide attentive and loving care for pets whether in my home or the client’s home. This includes feeding on schedule, daily walks, playtime, administering medications if needed, and monitoring their health and behavior. I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency so pets feel happy and secure. I also bring additional experience from my boyfriend, who has had dogs for most of his life, giving me extra insight into dog behavior, training, and care.
About: I've always been around dogs, whether it was my mommas at home or my roommates pets! Ive come to love them and maybe one day will have one of my own! In the meantime, I'd love to care for your baby while you take care of you! I'm currently transitioning from teaching to a new career so I am pretty flexible right now! I just needs a heads up in advance and am happy to make time! My current roommates dog is an indoor dog and so when she's not home, I make sure to give him potty breaks and whatever it is she asks of me! I've been told i'm such a rule follower haha I don't think its a bad thing so whatever it is your pet needs, just let me know!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 5 years. I had 2 dogs of my own. Loving, understanding and supportive is the only way to connect with a beloved pet. I hope to be that for yours ♥️ I’m currently working full time on Rover. Available everyday day at any time. If you need more schedule info don’t hesitate to reach out. Excited to meet all of you! I follow all instructions given, I love playing with them and giving them snuggles ♥️ If crate trained I put them in there and if bed trained I will lift them on there too. I understand each pet has their own personality and I will respect each and every single one.
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for pets. In addition to growing up with family dogs, I've looked after the pets of friends and family and have volunteered at local animal shelters caring for both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and enjoy taking active dogs on walks or runs. As an airline pilot, responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail are part of my everyday job, and I bring that same level of care when looking after your pet. I can't have a dog of my own because of my career, so I'd love the opportunity to care for yours and treat them like family. There are a few days a week I will not be able to care for your pet. My work schedule is consistent each month, which allows me to establish a reliable routine with your pet. I'm a quick communicator, dependable, and happy to work with you to create a schedule that fits your pet's needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, keep your home secure, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'll also send regular updates and photos (if you'd like!) so you always know how they're doing. As an airline pilot, professionalism, responsibility, and attention to detail are part of my everyday job. I'll bring that same level of care and reliability when looking after your pet.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was very young both big and small. My oldest dog passed at 16 years old so I have experience with senior pets. Calm and energetic, young and old, big and small I’ve done it all! I have a full time job but 3 days off a week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday). I can come yours or they can come to mine. I do live in a pet friendly apartment which offers a dog park for your fur baby to run and play. I currently have no pets as my sole pup recently passed tragically so pets needing solo care (no other animals) is no issue. I have a large and smaller crate is that is something needed as well as food, treats, brushes, and shampoos for bathing.

About: I have Doggy Daycare experience and four tiny senior fur babies of my own. I am comfortable with seniors, puppies, and going on walks/runs. I'm a student and have time to take care of your pup ! When i am not in campus I am home with the Woofs. I have a fenced backyard and plenty of areas your pup can relax inside. I can crate any of my dogs who might be having a grumpy day or separate them with a baby gate.
About: I own a dog myself and so Ive learned to crate and potty train her. As much as I love her I do understand every dog needs to learn respect to others. I am currently working full time with a set schedule for a while and it does change from time to time. My current schedule is from 7am-3pm; with [most] Sundays and Mondays off. My dog is crate trained, so if needed she can be put away. I do have a spacious apartment, my cat tends to be shy around others. So he would run off, but as mentioned before with my dog, my cat can be out away also.
“Shayna was amazing to my dogs! They were so well taken care of. The daily updates from her eased my mind, and were fun to read/see pictures of what they were up to.”

“Nita exceeded all of my expectations!!! My puppy was instantly drawn to her during our Meet & Greet and while house sitting their bond grew closer. She continuously updated me throughout her stay, which really eased my nerves. All instructions were carried out and the line of communication was accessible at all times. Nita comes highly recommended and I see why. Definitely will book with her again!”


About: Hi! I’m Shannie, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my sweet dog, Reese’s a Pomeranian, who was part of my family from fifth grade through my sophomore year of college. Having him taught me that pets aren’t “just animals” they’re family, and that’s exactly how I’ll treat yours. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, whether that meant feeding them, taking them on walks, playing fetch, giving them lots of love and attention, or simply keeping them company while their owners were away. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I typically take dogs outside every 2–4 hours (or more often if they’re puppies or have specific needs) and always follow the schedule and routine their owners provide. Whether your pup is energetic or prefers relaxing cuddles, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them happiest. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours (or more often for puppies or dogs with specific needs), always keep fresh water available, and wipe paws after walks to help keep your pup clean and comfortable. I’m also comfortable using harnesses, crates if requested, and reinforcing any training you’re already working on. I’ve even taught a few dogs basic commands like “sit” and “shake.” While you’re away, you’ll never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can see all the fun they’re having and know they’re happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Great updates! On time and communicated very well throughout services. Sent pictures and mood updates to know Nova was in good hands and warming up with every visit. Will book again.”


About: I've had dogs ever since I was growing up. I started out with a pair of Jindo dogs from Korea. When I became an adult, I started raising cats. Eventually I went on to work at Pappy's Pet Lodge and now I hope I can work for you. I currently have no other tasks so looking after your pet is my number one priority. I am free every day of the week, even on weekends. I will almost always be attentive to your pet inside, making sure they always have water and a great time, and I always keep dogs on a leash outside unless we have a fenced yard.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Wilmer is $15 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $16 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 5,502 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Wilmer. 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wilmer choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Wilmer with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
