“I was concerned about leaving the Aussie Posse with a stranger since they are absolutely not used to being around unfamiliar people and the standard size Aussie has designated himself as the house protector. To my delight Olivia handled the situation perfectly. She greeted him calmly and then basically ignored him until he and the others calmed down. The second day went better. And by day 3 they were practically old friends. One of my other dogs is shy and didn't want to eat. She changed his feeding location in order to give him space, and pretty much ignored him for a couple days. By the end of her time with us he was finishing his meal and even playing ball with her in the yard. We are extremely happy with the service she provided, would definitely hire her again and would strongly recommend her to others in need of pet sitting services. She's the BEST!!”

About: Have taken care of and owned dogs all my life as well as been partnering with another pet sitting business to take in overflow. No kid home, safe and secure for your pet. Open to special requests such as if you want your dog walked at a park once a day, or kept separate from any other animals, etc. also if you’d like daily or multidaily updates and photos that can be requested. I work from home as a tailor so I’m home most of the day, no long hours away. I live alone so no extra people or strangers will be in the house or going in and out throughout the day. Close to Colonial animal hospital and Blue pearl incase of any emergency. I have a 6 foot fenced yard and a friendly small dog that is happy to play with a new friend. If your pet sleeps in bed at night I’d be happy to accommodate or if they’re crated at night I can also do so for you. I try to follow the same rules they live by at home including if they’re allowed on furniture, how they’re fed, etc.
“Regina did a wonderful job with my senior dog. She made my dog feel at home while I was away. Regina is a great communicator, and made sure my dogs needs were met. I came home to my dog who was content and relaxed. When I need dog sitting, I will look to her first.”

I’m my new house, we have an extra room that will be dedicated to the kitty’s and will be called the “cat room”, while we also have quite a large back patio where they can freely roam and get fresh air!!

“Our dog care arrangements fell through 3 days before we were leaving for vacation. We knew that she wouldn't do well in a boarding situation. We met Brianna and she was a good fit. Our dog Alma really liked her during our meet and greet. We felt comfortable leaving her at home with Brianna doing drop in visits. We arrived home last night to a happy dog. Receiving the visit updates reassured us that Alma was in good hands. We definitely will use Brianna again”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alva
Keira was absolutely amazing with our 14 week old Aussiedoodle puppy, Lily. She is very experienced and offered ideas on how to adjust to a rambunctious new addition in our home. Keira was an excellent communicator throughout these past two weeks, never hesitating to reach out if she had any questions or suggestions. We look forward to continuing to use Keira as Lily has grown so fond of her.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
