About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. My entire life ive been a huge animal lover and ive owned all sorts of pets! I’m patient, dependable, and focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and care. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs and make sure they stay happy, active, and well cared for. im currently working part time as a nursing assistant, so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pups! (I can rearrange times for you as well ;)) Honestly I would rather hang out with pets than humans, I have a very big yard with 3 younger brothers and my own dog to keep the pets happy and playful!
About: I am a full-time mom and Navy Veteran. My heart is full of love for fur babies and I enjoy popping in for play time with a little exercise or even having them over anytime while pet parents are taking care of business. I am currently home full time, so my time is pup time! I am available for Doggie day-care Monday-Friday and Boarding Thursday-Tuesday. Inbox for more details or scheduling questions. I can work with you. I am a big stickler on follow directions to the very smallest details. I always want your fur baby to feel at ease and receive the very best care possible! Whatever he or she needs, just let me know!
About: I’ve learned a few things about training dogs and patience is always something I’ll never have a problem with. Never mind picking up after them Pet care fits perfectly in my daily routine. Always need love from our family pets. Would love to care for them every day for sure I’ll always make sure I’m looking out for them and make sure they are comfortable and fed properly. Will give them as much attention. .
“Chelsea did such an amazing job with our pup! She made sure Millie was taken care of and went above and beyond to make sure she had a good time while we were gone! I highly recommend Chelsea to watch your pets!”
About: I have lots years of pet experience. I also do dog walking-boarding with Wag! Where we become certified and are background checked. I have two dogs on my own, a Chiweenie (Duke) and Maltese mix (Chess). I live with my parents and we are a pet friendly home! I always had a passion for animals and I will guarantee you and your pup won’t regret any minute! I love going to the dog park on my free time, taking walks and of course my favorite is play time (which is all day long). I do work part time over night but my parents are disabled so someone is ALWAYS home. I hope that you choose me to fulfill your wants for your pet and I hope to see you in the near future :) Thank you, Alexis PS: I do understand accidents happen when your pup enters a new home but if your dog constantly urinates or poops on carpet/floor along with them being let outside to do their business I will add a cleaning fee of $20. I work over night so I’ll be home all day to ensure your pup gets all the attention they need with lots of play time and walks. I treat each pet as if they are my own. All allowed on furniture and free to roam all throughout the house but I do have a gate keeping all the dogs away from the front door so you have no worry about your pup sneaking out. They also have free access to the backyard.
About: Animal lover and experienced dog owner with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I care for every pet as if they were my own and provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. Happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. 😊 I work from home, so I’m around most of the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I already plan my day around my own dog. Your pet would get lots of attention, care, and a consistent routine while they’re with me. At my home, pets have a calm, safe space with a fenced yard for play and plenty of room inside, including extra space if they need a quiet area. I’m home most of the day, so they get lots of attention and care.I also have a friendly dog, and I always make sure introductions are done slowly and comfortably. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible.
About: I have hands-on experience with dog sitting and basic pet training, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether it’s high-energy puppies who need structure and consistency or older dogs who thrive on routine and gentle care, I adjust my approach to meet each pet’s individual needs. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent attention and supervision throughout the day. I already have a dog of my own, and I’m very structured and committed to maintaining his routine and schedule. Because of that, caring for other pets blends seamlessly into my lifestyle. My day is built around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods, so adding another pet simply means extending the same level of care, structure, and attentiveness. Working remotely also gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, engagement, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods.
About: I have always helped out my family watching our dogs. I have 3 Basset Hounds and 1 Jack Russell Terrier. I also help out with family friends dog and neighbors dogs when needed! I currently don’t work a job, allowing me to be free all time. I only have one event every Saturday night but would be able to go back to the dogs or skip it for the time being! I follow every rule/guildline given to me by the owner and will never do anything to harm their animal or go against their wishes. Usually I will feed them, give medicine, play, or anything they ask me to do!
“For me using Rover for the first time, I was pretty nervous about having someone else watch my dog. However, Colleen made it very easy to communicate and setup a good system for my dog. With her having a half hour per visit, I can tell she filled that time productively, and gave Maggie the positive energy she needed while I was gone. Colleen also sends photos confirming that Maggie ate or walked, and that allowed me to still see Maggie in action. I’m very happy with her service and how easy she was able to pull it off for Maggie.”
About: Over the 10 past years, I have been able to build amazing bonds with my furry clients and their owners. I started pet sitting when I was 14 to show my mom responsibility and that I could take care of a dog on my own (it took 5 years to convince her btw). My mom agreed to it, and my classmate dropped off Leo, a 7 year old Shitzu, at my house and it was the best week of my summer break. Since then, I have cared for puppies as young as 8 weeks to seniors up to 17 years. I have been able to keep loyal and consistent clients because of my trust and honesty, but also because I am able to adapt to each pets different personality and energy. I have experience with all types of dog breeds from chihuahuas to pitbulls and yorkies to labradoodles, as well as cats since 2020! I treat every home with respect and every animal as if they were my own. My main goal is to keep them happy and in their normal routine for meals, walks, and medications, as well as providing peace of mind for owners. Message me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet 🐾 I'm currently in my last year of college and am on campus Monday - Wednesday. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and I'll be looking forward to having new study partners 🐶🐱 I ask about and respect boundaries they have for the home. I keep pets in their routine as close as possible. If a feeding or walk time interferes with a class, I communicate with owners to let them know. I like to ask questions and then schedule a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit.
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been one of my favorite parts of life. I also care for rabbits and guinea pigs, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe every day. What sets me apart is that I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to providing dependable care while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am available for pet care 24/7. I have a consistent daily routine and will always communicate my availability clearly with pet parents. I do have my own pets that I care for, including two guinea pigs, a rabbit and a dog, so I will need to return home briefly each day to maintain their feeding and care routine. I am happy to discuss schedules with each pet parent to make sure their pet’s needs are fully met. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, and any special instructions you provide. I keep their environment clean and safe, pay close attention to their behavior, and make sure they have fresh water, plenty of love, and the care they need while you’re away. I will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for your dog in your home, I will treat your pet and your space with the same respect, patience, and care that I give my own.
About: I have experience caring and training many pets from livestock, like horses, cattle and sheep, to small pets like dogs, cats and fish. Growing up on my grandmas ranch and owning various pets since as long as I can remember, I have learned how to cater to any pets’ unique needs. Whether it’s administering medication, specialized diets, training or even a simple extra walk to get any extra energy out. I can ensure that your pet will be happy, healthy and safe with me! Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns you may have! :) I currently have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most days and times. Feel free to reach out with your pet care needs, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! When it comes to animals, trust and safety of you and your pet is my main priority. I can create a safe, happy and comfortable environment for everyone included I will be sure to follow any specific steps and routines you may have for your pet. I strive to build trust and a good bond with you and your pet so everyone is happy!

About: For several years I took care of my friends dog Koda while living with my friend. My friend was busy in graduate school and working part time, so she asked me take care of Koda in the mornings and evenings when she could not make it home in time. That included walking Koda and feeding Koda. Those responsibilities grew to taking Koda to the vet when necessary. I learned a lot about dogs, and I am able to handle taking care of dogs. Safety is the most important thing when taking care of a dog. My schedule is flexible. I would prefer at least 2 days notice for scheduling purposes. I am available throughout the day seven days a week. I would ask the client what is important when taking care of a pet in their home. Does the pet have any allergies? Do they have any health problems I should be aware of?

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alcovy Forest
We are so grateful to have found Terrilyn. She is completely reliable, always show up on time, and treat our dog like family. We love getting the detailed updates and cute photos after every walk. Our dog gets so excited every time they arrive. Highly recommended to any pet parent looking for exceptional care!
Karen was awesome! I needed someone last minute to drop in on my pups, and she came through for me. She followed all of my house rules, which I really appreciated, made sure they were fed and let out, and even gave them some belly rubs and extra love. 🐾❤️ I felt really comfortable knowing my pups were in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Angel was great! She did everything we asked of her making sure our cats were fed and played with, and litter boxes cleaned. She even went out of her way to take care of a bit of a bug pest issue and notified us right away. It should be a no-brainer on who to book while you’re away.
Chelsea has been our go to doggie sitter for the past year or two. Hope absolutely loves her and I love her thorough messages. Recently I had to book a different sitter because Chelsea was traveling at the same time as me and let's just say the other sitter wasn't as thorough with her updates.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Alcovy Forest is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $39 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.

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 Alcovy Forest. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
