About: My family has had a dog that I’ve loved to take care of and spend time with since I was 8. Also I would take care of my family’s dog since friends’ dog whenever they were out of town as a kid. I’m currently back for the summer from college so I have lots of time to take care of pets both overnight and during the day. I won’t be able to take pets into my home but can go to the owners house night or day. If for any reason you don’t have a leash or dog treats or something along those lines I’ll be able to bring it.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so caring for them is second nature to me! From bouncy puppies who need patience and consistency to sweet senior pups who enjoy a slower pace, I love them all. I’m happy to help with basic training, stick to routines, and make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and tail wags while you’re away I’m in school, but I make plenty of time for pets! I can fit walks, playtime, and care into my daily and weekly schedule, so every pet gets attention, love, and fun while I balance school. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfy wherever they are! In your home, I follow your instructions and make sure they have food, water, and lots of love. In my home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of supervision, cuddles, and fun so every pet feels safe and cared for

About: I've had cats since I was a child. Neighbors, roommates, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of pets when they are gone. This has included feeding at a specific time in a specific way and at times giving medication. With a former roommate, I also found and rescued a young female cat during law school, and she turned out to be pregnant. We bathed and brushed her several times to get rid of fleas, got her spayed after pregnancy, and rehomed the kittens. I've had my own cat for a few years now, and I understand needing to maintain their routine and monitoring diet to address issues such as regurgitation of food due to poor city water quality or eating too fast or sensitive stomach issues. I am an attorney and can visit the cats in the mornings and evenings and during the weekend at regular times and ensure they receive love and playtime. I do not care for pets in my home, as my apartment is too small and my cat is more of an only child. However, I am very much able to spend at least a couple hours each day with my clients' cat(s) to feed them, maintain cleanliness of their spaces, play with them with their favorite toys, and give them pets as each cat prefers.
“Cody was great! I had a last minute event pop over the weekend and needed to scramble to find someone to stop in a couple times. Cody responded quickly and helped me out tremendously.”
“Chelsea is awesome! Very caring with our wild puppy. She is super attentive and noticed small and big changes- we had a couple of concerning days/issues and was super quick to notify us and wait for our responses. Definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of my parents dogs, they have always had two or three at a time, neighbors, friends, and also my chiropractors dogs for many years. I’ve cared for little dogs like chihuahuas as well as big dogs like Great Danes and mastiffs. I also have experience caring for senior pups that my parents and chiropractor had in the past. I work as a flight attendant and I’m looking to earn some extra money on the side and have the perk of playing with dogs on some of my days off. I can crate the dog if needed or keep them in a room when away or overnight. I would keep them on a leash if they like to wander and the yard is not fenced.
About: Loving animals is at the heart of why pet sitting is such a fulfilling experience. Dogs, in particular, have an incredible capacity for unconditional love and loyalty. When you open your heart to care for them, you're not just providing a service; you're forming a bond built on trust and affection. Every wagging tail, wet nose nudge, and happy bark is a reminder of the pure joy that animals bring into our lives. I would love to take care of your Pet. PET sitting allows you to immerse yourself in this love, creating unforgettable moments and strengthening your appreciation for the wonderful connection we share with our furry friends. I’ve had Many Experiences with animals. As far as Young to growing up. I am working part time so I have plenty time for extra activities! I am free as a bird to enjoy time spending with your dog However I don’t have a fence yard.. but I will keep them on Leash all times! We could go on walks or just about anything! I am always able to run out for potty breaks!
About: My first dog sitting job was when I was in freshman year of high school, roughly six years ago. My piano instructor was going to be out of town and had asked me to care for her dogs named Joey & Monica. Ever since I have dog sat a couple dogs from different families. I also have two dogs of my own. I take very good care of my dogs, they are my best friends. I provide food and water, and meals on times. Taking dogs out on a walk or to the dog park. I can administer medication - my dogs are frequent vet visitors. I can provide grooming as well and following owner instructions, and providing companionship. I’m currently a part time worker at Costco, and self-employed as well with teaching piano in my home a couple hours a week, as well as some college classes in the morning and afternoon during fall and spring. I post plenty of fun pictures with the dogs I watch so feel free to give me a follow! I have two dogs of my own, a very sassy and bossy Pomeranian, and a chunky very demanding Corgi. My dogs are my everything. I feed them two times a day, typically between 8-9 am for breakfast and 5-6 pm for dinner. My pomeranian is a very picky eater so I have to feed him with my hands but sometimes he’ll eat on his own, my corgi on the other hand LOVES food. I potty my dogs every 1-3 hours. We love going to the dog park. Sometimes we go on walks around the neighborhood too. Since it’s very muddy outside I also bathe them everyday after the dog park. I brush their teeth and clean their ears every two days. Sometimes when nobody’s going to be home, we keep them in a big playpen area so they don’t wander around and chew on stuff they shouldn’t be, but that is only for when we aren’t home but other wise they run around in the house. They are also crate trained as well.
About: I’ve been a dog lover and animal-obsessed human for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From training a playful puppy to gently caring for senior dogs with complex health needs, I’ve handled it all with patience, love, and lots of treats. I volunteer regularly at Cocos Heart Dog Rescue, so I have seen and worked with dogs of all backgrounds. I’m attentive to details, comfortable administering medications, and quick to pick up on behavior cues. Whether it’s energetic walks, snuggly downtime, or special care routines, your pup will be in safe, loving hands with me. Pet care fits perfectly into my life because I’m a total homebody and love having pets around! I work a hybrid job with a flexible schedule, so I’m home often during the week and usually free on weekends. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just being around for comfort, I have the time and flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve. In my home, pets are my babies. I have a fenced-in yard area that’s perfect for safe outdoor play, plus plenty of walking trails nearby for fun adventures. My space is cozy and pet-friendly with lots of toys, blankets, and extra supplies on hand, including crates if needed. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s sticking to their regular feeding and potty schedule, giving medication, or just providing extra snuggles. I also love making homemade dog treats (with owner approval, of course!) as a fun, healthy bonus. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I do everything I can to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease.

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 Afton 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.

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 .
