“Trial run for Amanda to get comfortable with the meds routine for one our cats. She did great! Even remembered the treats he gets afterwards. Looking forward to her taking care of the fur babies during our upcoming trip.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how attentive, patient, and dependable I am with every pet I care for. I have experience caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m great at keeping routines consistent, encouraging positive behavior, and giving pets plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. I’m also very observant and quick to notice changes in behavior or mood so pets always receive the best care possible. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and stress-free! I currently works a job from 6pm to 430 am. So, if discussed, I can determine if I can fit a morning stop into my schedule but I’m definitely available before 3pm M-F. Sat/Sun 10am till TBD. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of attention so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I previously had a dog who sadly passed away after 13 years, which gave me a lot of experience and love for caring for animals through every stage of life. I currently have a poodle and a doodle who have had puppies together, and I also have two of their puppies, so I’m very familiar with caring for multiple dogs with different personalities and energy levels.
About: Hi, my name is Shavonna and I’ve been on Rover since the beginning of Spring 2019. I’m 32yrs old and I live in Rock Hill SC, and I have two boys and a daughter. They are 1yr, 4yr, and a 11yr. I love working with animals, it’s my passion other than being a mother to my kids. I went to school for veterinary assistant and have a certification to help animals or to take care of them. I treat animals is like they was my own. I’m very sweet and gentle when it comes to someone pet and if you let me I can show you how a good pet sitter I can be! My skills are is to let the pet know that I’m in control because sometimes the pet might run over you, so you have to show them who’s boss. Any other way I will not neglect the animal nor abuse, I feel that’s an awful thing to do! Like I said you have to treat the animals as just as if was my own because they are human beings just in a different way! I work from home. So basically I be at home the majority of the day. So I have time on my hands to fit pet care in my schedule! I make sure they are well love as much love I give to my boys and daughter! I also will take them on walks as needed to get the nature outdoors!

About: I have extensive dog sitting experience and a genuine love for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, laid-back seniors, anxious dogs who need extra patience, and everything in between. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I always strive to create a calm, caring environment for them. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, playtime, crate routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving dogs the attention and affection they deserve. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs and personality, whether that means lots of exercise and play or quiet companionship and reassurance. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease. I work full-time, but I carefully plan pet care around my schedule to ensure every pet receives attentive, dependable care and plenty of love. I’m very organized with my routine and make time for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, and quality attention before and after work, as well as throughout evenings and weekends. Because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals, pet sitting is something I intentionally make space for in my life — not something rushed or treated as an afterthought. I’m committed to making pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while keeping owners updated and reassured along the way. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and create a calm, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I understand that pets feel safest in familiar surroundings, so I focus on keeping their schedule consistent with feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection and attention. I’m respectful, responsible, and attentive while staying in someone’s home, and I treat both pets and the home with great care. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job with our two kitties especially accepting the last minute request due to a family emergency. She was willing to go out of her way to accommodate the last minute meet and greet which meant so much to us. Kaitlyn had not given insulin injections before and was game for learning and did it first time like a champ. It felt so good leaving knowing that Kaitlyn was in charge of our fur babies 💗”
“Carrie has been so polite, communicative, and so, so caring for my sweet doggo! I cannot recommend her enough and am so thankful to have a dog sitter who is compassionate and truly involved with her time spent with my baby!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was always the sibling who took the lead in caring for our family dogs, from feeding and walking to playtime and plenty of cuddles. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Navi, my lovable Pitsky (Pitbull/Husky mix), so I’m very comfortable caring for larger, energetic breeds. As a pediatrician, compassion, patience, responsibility, and attention to detail are second nature to me. I bring those same qualities to caring for animals. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every furry friend with the same love, gentleness, and attention I give my own. Your pup will be in caring, attentive hands!

This gives me plenty of availability to dedicate to your furry family members! I’m currently available for weekday and weekend walks, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding in my home. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, an overnight stay, or some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’d be happy to help! My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of companionship, exercise, and personalized care to make sure your furry bestie feels right at home! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! I treat every dog as if they were my own, with plenty of love, cuddles, belly rubs, and treats (with your permission, of course!). I enjoy taking dogs on walks, providing lots of exercise and playtime, and making sure energetic pups have opportunities to burn off that extra energy. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and videos so you can feel reassured and stay connected with your furry bestie while you’re away! I carefully follow all feeding schedules, routines, medications, and special instructions because I know every dog has unique needs. Above all, I want your pup to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care!
About: I’ve always been a huge dog lover! Growing up around dogs and having two of my own has given me plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities.

I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping up with daily routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing outside, or just cuddling on the couch, I’m happy to give them the attention they deserve!

“Hilary was amazing while stopping in to care for my cat. She is so nice, sent me great updates and really took great care and time with my cat every visit. Knowing my cat was in good hands allowed me to relax while away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - York
I’ve never used a pet sitter service before and was nervous to do so but our pets (cats, leopard geckos and a bearded dragon) were in great hands with Kierson! She was great at communicating with me before and after each visit, as well as sending pictures. She was even kind enough to water my seedlings for me! Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.
Very nice and fun girl..She listens to instructions well and is always friendly. She sent a photo everyday of the "Critter Crew".. She is reliable and flexible.. Very trustworthy and good to your 4 legged children... She comes highly recommended!! 👍👍 All my cats approved of her..😁

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in York is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $27 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 3,780 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across York. 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 York. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
