“Liz did an excellent job taking care of my cats, chickens and plants over the 2 weeks I was gone. She was prompt, took care of anything that needed to be done, found time to socialize with the cats and reached out to me when she saw anything that didn't seem right. I couldn't have asked for anybody any better that her in watching my animals. She is the best.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was little. My childhood dog passed 2 years ago and my parents recently got a new puppy. I’m an athlete so walks and playing aren’t an issue. I’m a college student studying criminology but I’m completely online with nothing else to do so my availability is very open and flexible just about every day I make sure I'm fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. For pets that need extra patience, like seniors, I take my time and make sure they feel calm and secure.
About: I have had many pets my whole life and love working with them. I am great will all breeds and all pets, as well as every age group from puppies to seniors. I currently work part time, and I am available for drop ins throughout week days, in the morning, around lunch, and the evenings.as well as all day drop ins on weekends. I am able to walk your pets and let them out into fences in back yards as well as put them in crates if need be while no one is home, along with feedings and medications.
About: About Me 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs since I was just 7 years old! I grew up helping my grandfather care for his hunting dogs, which taught me from an early age how much patience, responsibility, and love goes into caring for animals. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Ozzy, an energetic Australian Kelpie who definitely keeps me on my toes! 🐶💙 I’ve also provided drop-in care for family and friends, caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾 I’m currently looking for full-time employment so I have pretty much open availability. My schedule would be open from 9a-230p, M-Fr, time could be shorter depending on location. I can only do drop in care at the moment. I can let them out to potty, take a short walk and/or play in your yard.
About: Hi, I’m Bri! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience as a pet sitter, dog walker, kennel technician, and kennel manager. In school to become a future Certified Veterinary Technician! I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors, high-energy pets, and those with special needs. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, or extra comfort while you’re away, I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every animal like family. I have open availability right now so pickup and drop-off anytime works for me. On my days off, I dedicate my full attention to your pets, making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and personalized care. For everyone’s safety, I ask that pets are up to date on vaccinations, flea-free, and friendly with other pets. I can only accept small dogs, as my medium sized dog isn’t comfortable around larger breeds. If your cat prefers their own space, I can keep my cats separated to help them feel comfortable.
About: I have taken care of dogs professionally for 5 years, but have been studying and caring for dogs all my life! I am able to walk dogs of all sizes, administer medications (including insulin and related meds), cut nails, bathe dogs, and do basic training. I am a college student and I also work a part-time job, but I am am away at most for six hours of the day and can come by anytime between school and my job! I will be able to conduct house sitting activities such as basic cleaning, collecting the mail, and any chores in addition to pet care. While your babies are with me, I can guarantee you quality care and love, of course!
“Nina was very kind and communicative about Chief when we needed someone to let him out a few times when we were out of town for the day. We would for sure book with her again:)”
About: Ever since I was about 8 or 9 years old, I have been surrounded by animals. I can care for cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, lizards, fish, and turtles if need be. I am able to adapt to whatever pet care needs that are required for certain animals. I am usually available every day except for Mondays, and on Saturdays I am busy until 11:15 AM. So, I will have plenty of time to help take care of your pets. I do not have a fenced in front or back yard, but I am able to keep animals inside the house or go on walks if needed.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My mom and I started doing TNR and taking care of a colony of cats when I was around 8 years old, while also having cats and dogs of our own! I currently have my own cats and dogs who are my entire world. I volunteer regularly at the SPCA in Aiken, SC and have a few months of experience from working at a dog and cat boarding facility. I have a lot of experience with cats that have different medical conditions such as FIV. My own cats have had surgeries and needed to be medicated so I have experience in giving pills and liquid medicine. I’m not currently working which means I have a very flexible schedule. I am more than happy to discuss a routine that works best for you! I can care for your pets by dropping by and spending an extended amount of time with them to ensure they are getting any emotion connection they may need. In addition, I will take care of the basic necessities such as cleaning and feeding. I am more than happy to send updates throughout the day/time period to ensure you know how they are doing!
About: I have been taking care of 6 or 7 animals of every kind since I was 10, I look forward to meeting your sweet companion ! Temporarily acting as a pretty much stay at home stand in wife, so I can go wherever whenever. If it’s walking distance from my home then I’ll most likely walk or bike there I have 2 gentle dogs that would love to hang out with your fur babies and I like to frequently go to the dog park for good socialization.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I rescued my dog about five years ago! I always try to help strays whenever I can. I have three dogs living with me and my family currently. I bathe and walk them and take them on drives occasionally to get a puppuccino from Starbucks! :) I believe dogs are a part of the family, which is why my dogs are just as comfortable on their dog beds, as they are on our couches and beds. I love all animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of availability open for your pets! I love all animals and want a future career aimed towards that specialty! Depending on the pet and its personality, I am open for cuddles and being lazy together, or for walks and getting out some energy by throwing the ball in the backyard!
About: I have owned and cared for dogs since I was a kid, and now at age 45, you could definitely do worse for someone to take care of your pup. I am available for boarding, house sitting (dependent upon the situation), doggy daycare and/or walks. As a retiree, I have all of the time needed to properly care for your pet. I am currently a dog owner, so your pup will have company. I have a large, fenced in yard, with plenty of shade. I primarily keep my dog in the home, so your pup will have as much time in or outside as he/she prefers.
About: I’ve used a different walking app before and I love being around cats and dogs! I’ve recently got a cute cat and his name is Alfred and recently Nala and they are the best thing ever!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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 .
