Pet care is the heart of my daily routine — it’s not just something I do, it’s what I love. I’m a full-time pet sitter, so my schedule is centered entirely around the pets I care for. I plan my day based on walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and quality time with each pet in my care. Because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to give each animal consistent attention, whether it’s a long walk, a play session, or a quiet cuddle. I treat every pet like part of the family, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m visiting theirs. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, clean, and safe environment with plenty of love, attention, and play. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I follow each pet’s feeding, potty, and sleep routines to keep things familiar and stress-free. I limit the number of pets I take at once to ensure personalized care and comfort. In clients’ homes, I respect your space and care for your pet according to your exact instructions — feeding schedules, medication, crate routines, walks, and more. I take time to build trust with your pet and always provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing.

About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and have experience with a variety of pets! I regularly dog sit and provide dog walks, and I also have experience horse sitting. I’ve cared for smaller animals as well, including having a pet hedgehog of my own. I’m comfortable following specific routines, giving pets plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a full-time college student, so my schedule varies by day. On school days, I’ll typically be away from home for about 6–8 hours at a time.

“Peyton took such great care of my boy. She communicated throughout my trip, and let me know whenever he seemed a little anxious. I'm so happy to have found someone who is so awesome and diligent in taking care of him while I was gone.”

“Couldn’t be happier with Christine and how she took care of our three fur babies. Each one has a very unique personality and two out of three need to be won over which Christine did quickly. Her checks-ins were both full of information and very thoughtful with lots of pictures showing how well they were behaving while we were away. We will definitely use Christine again.”

About: As a nurse, caring for others is at the heart of what I do, and I bring that same level of attention, patience, and responsibility to every pet in my care. I work only 2–4 days a week, and there is always an attentive family member at home, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including dogs and other animals, so caring for animals has been a lifelong passion. Those experiences taught me how to understand different pet personalities, needs, and routines from an early age. My family has a 7-year-old Cavapoo named Bentley, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty of walking paths and open green spaces nearby, giving dogs lots of opportunities for exercise, exploration, and fresh air. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. My healthcare background has taught me to be observant, dependable, and detail-oriented, which is especially valuable when caring for senior dogs, following special routines, administering medications, or recognizing changes in behavior. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while ensuring their dogs feel happy, safe, and loved during their stay. 🐾❤️ Caring for fur babies naturally fits into my daily routine. As a nurse, I am flexible with plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. On the days I am home, dogs receive regular walks, playtime, attention, potty breaks, cleaning cages, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for long periods and continue to receive supervision, care, and interaction. My dog, Bentley is family, so daily walks, feeding schedules, exercise, and cuddle time are already built into my routine. I live in a walkable, dog-friendly neighborhood with nearby green spaces, making it easy to provide multiple walks and opportunities for exercise each day. I enjoy maintaining a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and at home while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog is treated like family. Whether in my home or a client's home, I follow their regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I tailor my approach to each dog's temperament whether they are energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or prefer a calm and relaxed environment.
About: I've owned animals my entire life, every size and age of dogs, cats, and exotics. I currently live with my mini husky Luci, and my three guinea pigs Skye, Raze, and Sage. I am currently a free-lance caretaker for both children and animals, meaning my schedule is completely flexible and will be predictable enough to quickly schedule tasks. My time will be dedicated to the tasks of the day or week completely. I cannot board due to the fragile bond between my mini husky and my guinea pigs living together, unfortunately other animals of either kind may be a danger to this dynamic. I have my own transportation to drop in anywhere, however.
“First time with Rachel & I came home to a happy, relaxed dogs. It’s such a relief to know my dogs were not just looked after, but truly cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter.”

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 Aberdeen 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 .
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.
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 .
