About: I have experience working at both a kennel and a grooming salon, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve handled feeding, bathing, walking, basic training, and daily care. Friends and family also trust me with their pets, and I always treat every animal like my own! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time throughout the day and evening to give your pets attention, walks, playtime, and care. I’m flexible with scheduling and can work around what your pup needs! Safety is my top priority. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and have a clean, safe space to relax. I’m confident handling all breeds from my kennel and grooming experience, and I treat every animal with patience and care!
About: Hi there! Thanks for reading my profile. I currently have 3 dogs, fish tanks and a turtle and have had pets my entire 54 years of life. I have a flexible schedule (I work from home) and am available most anytime. I prefer Arab to be my area so I can help out as many people I can and not be traveling too much keeping the fees low. I can make house visits to let your pet(s) out to do their business, feed them, change litter etc... I have always had a love for animals and know how hard it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. Also to trust a stranger in your home! I take pride in my work and would not disappoint you in the care your pets receive. I would even do light house keeping if needed :-) please consider my services as your pet nanny. I am available locally with short notice or can be available long term. I have no restrictions on the breed or animal, I love them all I do require meeting you and your pet prior to your dates so we are sure I am a good fit. Most visits are $25 local, outside the area is $30-35. This is per pet. I do discounts for additional pets. ADDITION- I am seeing the need for small Farm care as well. I have worked with horses, goats, chicken, pig and cattle and am happy to help you with these as well, fees would be discussed at meeting I have pet sit for many years. In NY, MD And CA.

I do not do overnight but I will drop in up to 3 times a day so they are not feeling left alone. I am a very early riser so can be at your home 5am-8pm hours :-) Thank you! I can swing by during the day on my breaks/lunch hour for 15 mins or more depending on the pet’s needs. I’m up very early so nobody goes off their normal feeding or medicine schedules. My dogs eat and get meds at 5 am every day. If going outside I always leash, or watch closely if fenced yard is available. Fill fresh water every visit , clean up waste if requested
“Paislee took good care of my pups during both drop-in visits. She communicated any issues or concerns very well and promptly. She even visited the day before to come meet the dogs and learn where things were and such!”
“Anthony was absolutely amazing taking care of our senior Golden Retriever! He went above and beyond to make sure our sweet boy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He took him on walks, gave him extra attention, and truly treated him like his own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. Anthony was thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely wonderful with our dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for him! We are so grateful for everything Anthony did and will absolutely be using him again in the future. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their pets! ❤️🐾”
About: I have a true genuine passion for pet sitting. I have always loved and never bored with wanting to care for others pets. I understand that each pet is a part of a family and should be treated as such. I have a few years of experience working in a pet hospital and many references, many including coworkers that understand I would love their pets as if they were my own. I have a full time 8-5 job however, my job is flexible with me taking longer lunch breaks if your pet requires frequent potty breaks and the distance is not far. I will also check on them before and after in addition to overnight if needed. N/A, I don't pet sit at my own place because I rent and they charge extra for that as well as I believe most pets feel comfortable in the safety of their own home.
“Elizabeth was awesome! She took care of our cats for several days. She did everything we asked of her and sent detailed notes on how each visit went, along with pictures of all the cats each visit. When we got home they seemed happy and well taken care of.”
“Taylor is wonderful with our pet family. She won over my very shy and scared Sheltie in an instant. She is very caring and helpful if we needed anything. I highly recommend Taylor!”
“Alison was attentive and quick to respond. It was clear to see our doggy had an amazing time with her while we were away. Especially since it was his first time meeting her and our first time using Rover. So grateful for everything!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
