“Tiffany is awesome! She did drop-in visits with our cat Marshall while my husband and I went out of town for a trip. He warmed up to her right away. She is very communicative and super quick to respond. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be re-booking in the future!”
“Becca was really great! Even though I was a little scatterbrained and scheduled her last minute, she was able to take care of Miss Kitty and handle everything from bringing in a package that was delivered to early to picking up the bin of treats Miss Kitty overturned...”
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals and am happy to do dirty work that animals need to live clean. I'm a thorough, compassionate caretaker and I want to work with what your house and pets need. I work 5 days a week as a park ranger, but am looking for care opportunities in certain evenings and on weekends. I have two cats myself, which limits my boarding opportunities, but my schedule still allows for overnight stays. I have two cats myself, both are fed no-grain dry food and vitamin/oral supplements with wet food. One cat needs much play, exercise, and attention, while the other needs to be seen and talked sweetly to, and only pet while she eats. I've spent much time learning their behaviors and needs, and intend to do the same with every animal in my care. Even my snake had a way to tell me he was too cold or overhandled and wanted to be put back. I've had many guinea pigs and hamsters, and came up with creative ways to enrich them without endangering them. I've cared for many bugs, and know how and when to check their moisture levels, I do extended research on their diet needs and substrate needs, and I'll do the same for you. Animals and pets are family, though they can't tell you what they need, you can always learn and provide for them.
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
About: My friends regularly joke that my needs are similar to that of a dog: frequent walks and treats are all it takes to make me happy. I have cared for families and their loved pets for well over sixteen years; living in the owners house while on vacation or just dropping by periodically to check up. With our own pup, Thorin Oakenshield (Thor for short), our house is equipped with a large enclosed backyard, dog door, dog treats, toys (toys and more toys), and leashes. On Rover, I have cared for breeds of all types, but most extensively, I have cared for a Belgian malinois - hosting her for doggy daycare 30+ hours a week. The second dog i have cared the most for was special needs, so no matter the breed or the capabilities, know that I am comfortable, confident and competent I will be available full time throughout the week and on weekends: overnights accepted! I can work short term or long term and can travel, if need be, as I have a car and am willing to drive Our Thor gets along extremely well other dogs and children, so if you choose me to take care of your fur kid, you can rest assured they will get plenty of play time (if that's what you wish), plenty of rest (Thor adapts very well to other dogs energy levels, so senior pups can rest easy), and - of course - plenty of love! I currently have open availability: regardless of early morning or late nights, overnights, or weekends. I am happy to help however needed, so don't hesitate to reach out! I live in a home mere blocks from an elementary school. Our home has a large fenced in yard - with a dog door! My husband and I love dogs. In fact, my husband is far more likely to show them affection and love than he is to show me 😆 seriously, you should see his goodbyes with Thor v me in the morning... Your furkid will be inundated with as many pets and snuggles as their little heart desires, all while ensuring their safety and health.
“Roman did such a great job caring for our pups. He was detailed in his notes and took great pictures. We felt great leaving Fred and George in his care! Will book again”
“Savannah was truly outstanding. I had just started fostering a dog a week prior to her coming in, and she stepped in flawlessly. Had no issue washing the bedding when an accident happened, exhausted both dogs and made them happy and safe through out the whole week. She’s competent, figured out where everything was, and professional to a T. Would rebook her for a longer vacation anytime.”
About: I grew up with pets and have taken care of small, medium, and large dogs of all ages. I don’t have one of my own right now so I love any chance I can get to give pups some love!! I would be available for early morning or late afternoon/evening walks most days. I have a slightly flexible, full-time job and am off on Mondays. I think the most important type of care for dogs comes with attentiveness to details, what they need, and what they want (pets and play!) I am a very detail oriented person and will make sure to keep track of instructions while also making sure your dog go has a great time.
“Rachel was a great help when I had to spontaneously leave town for a family thing. She was quick to respond and understanding of the fact that we couldn't meet in person! She took good care of my kitties while I was away. I definitely recommend you work with her if you ever need pet-caring help!”
“Christy has been great. My dog has had stomach issues this week so I did not want to leave him alone the whole time I had work. She has done a great job dropping in with him. He is a very shy boy and he warmed up to her by the end of the 30 minutes :)”
About: I would love to start being able to help more people out in taking care of there fur babies. I’m currently a stay at home mom to my 4 year old son. I’ve been taking care of pets of all kind for 15+ years. I have been taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, lizards, and birds for my clients (and still do). I have also helped family, friends, and neighbors with their fur babies while they go away. I currently have no animals at my place. I have a yard and have plenty of room in my home to care for your pet/pets. I also live by the river front trail and love to take walks on the trail with the current pups I walk. I’m also willing to do drop ins to feed, water and take your pets out to potty as well!! I am currently a stay-at-home mom to my 4-year-old son and 4-month-old daughter, which allows me to be home throughout the day and provide consistent care, supervision, and attention to the pets in my care. I have a true passion for animals and would love to grow a business of my own centered around providing reliable, loving, and trustworthy pet care services. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I am committed to clear communication, reliability, and treating every pet as if they were part of my own family. Building long-term relationships with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I strive to provide peace of mind knowing your fur babies are in caring and capable hands. 💕 I have a spacious home and a yard with plenty of room for your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they get the attention, love, and structure they need while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide drop-in visits to feed, refresh water, give potty breaks, and check in on your pets to make sure they’re doing well and feeling comfortable. Your pet’s safety, trust, and overall environment are extremely important to me. I understand how much your pets mean to you, and my goal is to provide a loving, calm, and dependable experience so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾💙
“Kaitlyn was an amazing pet sitter for our 120 pound great pyr/ GSD mix! While our dog can be a bit tough meeting new people, Kaitlyn dove right in and provided regular check ins, potty breaks, and playtime for our boy. Would highly recommend!”
“Meredith was prompt and conscientious for every visit. Even with our very shy cats, she managed to get a picture of each one each day to reassure us that they were in good hands. Highly recommend.”
“I've had Rachel take care of my cat Auggie a couple of times now, and she's done a great job. She's prompt and easy to communicate with. I look forward to having Rachel check in on Auggie in the future!”

This was our second time having Jennifer as our pet sitter, and she was amazing again! She took great care of our pets and had excellent communication. Jennifer went above and beyond with sending updates additional tasks that she offered without us even asking (like taking out our trash). We have her booked again for the future!
Booking with Alyx gives us absolute peace of mind our kitties are going to be well taken care of! Not only does she play with them during her visits but gives us a detailed update on how the cats are doing. Her pictures are always a great addition as we get to see the cats and how much fun they have with her.
Abigail was wonderful! We ended up having some last minute work being done on our yard, but she was flexible and went with the flow do what the dogs needed and could be done with our gate open. The dogs adored her and she took good pictures! She arrived on time or a few minutes early to each appointment.
Rebekah did a terrific job. She took great care of my very shy cat. Rebekah got him to come out and play which made me so happy. I was gone longer than usual so getting those happy photos of him playing, belly up, and sitting with her made me very happy. I highly recommend.
Margaret is great! We can always tell when Nona has been well taken care of when we come back to a dog that barely missed us. Margaret was super punctual, and I loved getting her detailed updates, letting me know how Nona was doing kept me relaxed and allowed me to enjoy my trip

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wittmer is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $26 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 2,631 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wittmer. 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 Wittmer. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
