“Liz took the best care of our two dogs. One of our dogs is a bit nervous and she was great about the needs of each dog with different personalities. It was our first time to be away during the night without the dogs and they were perfectly fine with Liz making several stops throughout the day. We will definitely ask for Liz to care for our dogs in the future. She’s very good about communicating and prompt with all the requested visits. I highly recommend Liz. She is so nice and professional.”

“I have a very high maintenance cat (17, blind, won't eat, etc) and Mackenzie took such good care of her! She checked in twice a day and sent very detailed updates to let me know how Gracie was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing the Gracie was safe and being well cared for by someone that really truly cared about Gracie's wellbeing. I'll definitely be rebooking with Mackenzie!!”

“Extremely happy with Christine. This is the first time I've had a drop in visit for my pets in 10 years. Christine reassured me and even came to visit my fur babies before. She brought an ease and I felt complete trust that they were in good hands. I was given many updates every visit and pictures. She was thoughtful and always on time. My pets were very comfortable with her. Which made my trip less stressful. I would definitely recommend Christine and I will happily recommend her and have her back again in the future.”

About: Hi Kelsea here, I have some experience, about 2 1/2 year training dogs. Having a fur babe/babies is the best thing anyone could have, they can be sometimes better than humans. Love being outside and playing with my puppy and yours too, just see there happy faces makes my day great. My apartment where am stating currently dosent allows any aggressive breeds you should be able to see the picture of what am not allowed to have. But, am hoping to have a house to where i be able to have any breed. Currently I am working at Rally’s. But,I am very flexible to you and your dog needs. Also hoping to go back to college so I can get my degree in medical office, while there am hoping to learn more about training animals too. In conclusion, I hope that you and your fur babe/babies will choose to come and have a awesome experience. Have a great day!!!

About: Hiya! My name is Jenny and I have a current dog whose name is Kaya. My husband and I just adopted her. She’s 6 years old. I always loved having dogs. They are a real blessing and can be one's best friend. I've potty trained them all and taught them how to shake, sit, turn, stay/wait, come. You know those people who go to parties and hang with the adults? Well you would find me with the dogs 🥳 I work from home most days. Just ask if you have any questions :) I will take dogs on walks during my lunch/break if weather permits I have a fenced yard. We have a good size backyard with a park nearby. With a lot of good walking areas to take them out.

“Veronique was wonderful with my two huskies- I am always super concerned when I leave them alone & stress over their care. She was great at keeping me updated, sent me consistent updates, photos and videos. It’s important for me that my dogs connect with their sitter and it seems my two connected very well with Veronique. I’d absolutely recommend her and would totally book future sitting appointments with her. Thank you much for caring for my big boys 🐶 🐶”

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve been the go to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I am an honest and hard worker and I provide good communication with my clients. I am a student at parkside with one year left until I graduate. With my schedule, I am able to pet sit during the day and overnight on weekdays and I’m fully available on weekends. When I’m pet sitting in a clients home, I spend the majority of my day there playing with and taking care of the pets. I put the pet’s needs first and maintain good communication with the owners to ensure their pet is taken care of properly. I treat the home with respect and ensure the owners of the home know my schedule so there are no surprises while I’m watching their pets.

I can provide safe, quality walks for your furry friends, as well as timely, care filled in-home or backyard playtime, feeding, minor grooming, or quality time. I have my furry friends on the perfect schedule, so I have plenty of time to take care of yours.

I currently do not provide care in my home, but I am eager to give your dog a fun and quality walk, or even in home visits for dogs or cats! I’ll make sure they’re having tons of fun while feeling all of the love while their human is away :)

About: I have been caring for dogs almost as long as I have been alive! I am available in the afternoons during the week, and anytime on the weekends. I can care for your dog as little as a short home visit, or a nice outing at the park. Your dog’s safety is a MUST in my book and always my first priority. Anything that could possibly put your dog in harms-way will not be tolerated. When it comes to long stays away from your dog, I highly encourage communication in any shape or form. My phone will always be in arms reach when it comes to taking care of one’s dog. Overall, I can guarantee your dog will always feel safe and loved while in my care.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. For the past 3 years I’ve taken care of dogs for multiple families, stayed over to care for pets overnight, worked as a dog walker, and always love playing and meeting new pups. I have cared for multiple pets at once, am consistent with feeding and walking schedules, have cared for pets of all ages, and love to share updates and pictures of your pup. I am a graduate student based in Lake Bluff who loves animals! I have a car and a lot of morning and evening flexibility with some mid-day flexibility as well to feed, walk, or check in on pets. I am also available for overnight stays to ensure your pet is cared for overnight. Because of my flexible schedule, I am available for last minute bookings to help care for your pet in any way needed. I can’t wait to meet new furry friends! I feel comfortable staying in clients home if needed, dropping in to walk or feed pets, and crating pets if needed. I’ve had repeat clientele for whom I’ve cared for free roam and crated pets, dogs with special care needs, stayed overnight both short and long term, and worked as a dog walker. My own dog is a small, 18 lbs, friendly dog who loves to meet new friends. I have experience with my own and other pets and thus have a good understanding of animal body language, building trust, and understand that a good pet sitter should get to know your pet on their own terms. I am also willing to do meet and greats to ensure both you and your pet are comfortable with the match.

Trina took excellent care of our 3-year old cat, Rowena. She also communicated well and often, with some pictures! We felt that Rowena was in good hands with Trina when we were away for the long weekend. Thank you, Trina!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Zion

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Zion is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 5,080 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Zion. 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 .

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 , 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 Zion. On Rover:

  • 87% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
