About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up in a home with Rottweilers, which taught me early on the importance of proper care, structure, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve lived with rescue dogs and have also fostered dogs in the past, gaining experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and routines. Currently, I live in a home with a rescue St. Bernard and a Bernese Mountain Dog. While they aren’t my own dogs, I spend a large amount of my time caring for them, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I’m very comfortable with large breeds as well as dogs who may need extra patience and understanding. I’ve worked with many breeds and mixes, including Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, French Bulldogs, St. Bernard, Labs, Doodle mixes, Pomeranians, Boxers, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback. I understand that every dog is unique, and I always aim to provide care that meets each dog’s individual needs while making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy. I work part time as a yoga teacher and 3 days a week in a hospital setting. This allows me to have a flexible schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and weekend (when I am not at the hospital) for daytime visits to take your pets out on walks, stop in for potty breaks or afternoon lunch/snacks. I currently do not have any pets of my own which makes overnight stays to care for your pets easy. I will come to your home for to care for your pet and offer them the services you wish to have for them. Whether that be overnight stays, daytime dog walks, offering meals, or even just some outdoor playtime in your backyard.

“Wow! Wow! Wow! I booked Mika at the last moment when I discovered my neighbor could not watch my cat Mikey. Not only did Mika make time to meet me THAT day, but she could cover all my schedule. A member of the Armed Forces, Mika is highly intelligent, empathic, funny and trustworthy...she's got it all. My house was in perfect order when I returned and Mikey was so happy with her, he barely greeted me on my return. So, thanks Mika and thank you Rover.com”

“Marc took care of my 2 dogs and my 7 betta fish for a WEEK straight while I was away on vacation. 3 drop in visits per day. He also went the extra mile and stopped by a few nights around 12am because he knew my fur babies missed me. My dogs were obsessed with him and Marc truly made me feel comfortable while I was so far away from all my animals for a week. Marc is my dog (and fish) sitter moving forward and I urge you to book him as well!!! We’re getting a cat soon and I would trust him with my cat too. He has several cats and dogs himself!”

About: Hiya, I'm Jackson! I've always loved dogs and cats, and enjoy providing a kind and gentle environment for them. And if I'm lucky, a playful one! I would be honored to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family is well taken care of. I am more than comfortable with dog walking and housesitting to accommodate both yours and your pet's needs. I have experience with large breeds like German Shepherds, and medium ones like Huskies and Pittbulls. My schedule is quite flexible, as I currently work from home. I also have my own car for transportation, so fitting into your schedule is made easier. I treat each pet with kindness and compassion. They are just as important as any other member of the household to me. They bring so much joy and peace to our lives I couldn't imagine treating them any other way.

“Ola was an angel! We had to make two modifications to our original booking over this holiday weekend and she was so helpful and accommodating. She went above and beyond my expectation when it came to cleaning up a pet mess in our home. And she was so kind and loving to our fur babies each and every time she came to see them. I am so grateful that we met Ola and I look forward to working with her in the future.”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals. I’ve cared for birds, dogs, and currently have two cats. I truly love having pets in my life and always provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether it’s a playful pup, a curious bird, or a shy cat, I treat every animal with patience and respect, making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I currently am a pilot with my commercial license, and I’m studying and getting ready for my next license. I occasionally do DoorDash, but aside from that you could find me at home hitting the books, cuddling with my cats, and occasionally going on one to two hour flights to practice my skills. This job is perfect for me because I love animals, I have the time to care for them, which includes making frequent visits, overnight care, and whatever else is needed. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable space filled with love and attention. I keep their routines consistent, including feeding, playtime, and rest. With two cats of my own, I’m experienced in creating a calm environment and managing litter boxes thoroughly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine and comfort. I make sure to give plenty of affection and engagement, keep the space clean, and communicate regularly with the owner to share updates and any observations. I’m super playful and active with my cats—I love keeping them engaged with toys and games. I also enjoy going on walks myself, and if my cats didn’t hate going on walks, they’d be my perfect walking buddies! While I can’t take my cats on strolls, I’m all about making sure your pets get the right amount of exercise and fun, whether it’s playtime at home or walks outside. I also love teaching pets new tricks and spoiling them with toys and treats—because every pet deserves a little extra fun and love.

About: I’ve cared and loved dogs of various backgrounds. In my experience, I’ve successfully integrated a reactive dog with others, while maintaining a loving environment. I’ll make sure your pet gets the enrichment they need to fulfill a life an animal deserves (love and fun) ! I’m currently working full time from Mon-Friday from 9-6PM and mostly free on weekends. But know that after work feeling of wanting to just hangout, focus on hobbies, or go out to eat. That’s where I come in! I’d be happy to help drop in and make sure your pet gets the love and proper care they need so that you can have time for yourselves! :) I’m open to many services of care, whether that’d be taking your beloved pet outside to receive the enrichment they need, OR will happily take care of your pup and take the time they need to train at home.

About: I’ve had both a dog and a cat my whole life and have grown up with the responsibility to take care of them whether it be feeding them, taking them for a walk, or spending time with them. I also used to dog sit and walk for my neighbor five days a week while I was still in school. I currently only work 4 days a week and am very flexible with my availability. I enjoy spending time with all animals and love finding new ways to get in my exercise My goal is to make you and your pets as comfortable as possible. Whether that be following a general list of what you prefer for your pets or a detailed agenda.

About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.

She was super attentive and mindful of his vision issues and anxiety and went the extra mile to clean up after him and maintain the cleanliness of our house!

She kept in contact with me, sending pictures and updates that really helped put my mind at ease while I was travelling, knowing that my cat was in good hands! She was quick to respond to both my booking request and my questions, and was willing to set up a meet-and-greet with me and my cat, so that I knew she was in good hands. This is the most relaxing vacation I’ve had in years, knowing that my high-needs cat was in good hands. I will never book anybody else!!! She was so kind and patient, and my cat really liked her too!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Zarephath

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 9,809 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zarephath. 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 Zarephath. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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.
