About: I’ve had a dog in my family for as long as I can remember, from my childhood husky Ginger to our current family pekingese Alley. I absolutely adore dogs and jump at every chance to hang out with any of my friends dogs as well. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including those with special medical needs. I currently work part time at a restaurant and will be dedicated to your pet’s care every second I am not at work. I would never accept a job that would require me to compromise a pet’s needs and they will always come first in my life. I am committed to following any and all instructions given for dog/cat care. I understand that being in someone else’s home means following their rules and I will respect any spaces I am invited into.

“We had a wonderful experience with Jake, who stopped by twice to care for our three cats and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent throughout, and he was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. We would absolutely trust Jake again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and trustworthy pet care.”

You will not regret if you choose me to watch your loved one, they will be well taken care of, well loved and spoiled! No request is to much, I have watched all different kinds of animals from dogs, cats, birds, hedgehogs, bunnies you name it I have probably watched them. I work at prince Frederick Safeway. I normally work 4-1pm, 5 days a week. My schedule does change from time to time due to what is going on but I will communicate my schedule prior to watching your babies. Some days are easier than others… Monday, Wednesday and Fridays I’m not normally available until 3pm. Tuesday and Thursdays I’m available anytime after 1pm. This could change just ask and we will work something out! I have a huge fenced in back yard! Lots of room to run and play! I will crate your animal if it is needed, just please bring your crate with you. If not crated during the day I keep all doors shut so they can’t get into anything they aren’t supposed to. I do also have indoor camera to keep an eye on them while I’m away at work. Due to apartment rules I am not allowed to have pit pulls at my apartment, I love the breed! I just have to make sure I am following my landlord rules, I would have to come to you!

About: I’ve had my knee replaced which has slowed me down a tad but also allows me be to home all the time. We recently lost our old boy (dog of 12 years) and while my cats have helped me to survive, I have so much more love to give! For now I want to spend time with others’ dogs to help fill the whole in my heart. I genuinely want to make every animal a friend of mine! I will always lead with love, care and respect. I work from home already which is usually stuff I take care of in the evenings anyway but I have the time, love and space to accommodate your furry family members. We have three lovable indoor cats. Two will stay away mostly and one will greet you at the door with friendly meows. We will spend the whole time snuggling on the couch or running around in our yard.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up with dogs taught me exactly how to read their body language and give them the care, attention, and love they deserve. I treat every furry guest just like my own, making sure they stay happy, active, and fully comfortable while you're away I’m currently working a full-time job, but I work remotely every other week which gives me some spare time and I’d love to use it to spend with some dogs. I do have two kids ages three and eight both love dogs. I don’t have any dogs in my own, but I plan to get one and then your future however I was in our home with four dogs at a time

About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.

About: I have had my baby Dakota for 6 years, ever since she was a pup! I have seen all stages and loved her through them all. I would love to provide that same love to your baby when you are not around! After having Dakota, I definitely understand the term “a dog is a man’s best friend”. She has loved me through so many stages of life and helped me overcome a lot. I cherish her presence and company like no other. I would love to care for your baby as if they were my own while you are in need of time away. I work a 9-5. I will care for your pet in the morning before I leave and as soon as I return home. Then take them to the park to have a fun time and socialize. I live in a single family home. I will ensure your baby is cared for and receiving their exercise. For example, walks, activities outside, or even allowing them to frolic outside.

“Uduak was wonderful! She was communicative with my husband and I, and very patient with my pup who is not comfortable with new people. Uduak followed instructions to a tee, and also used her discernment in caring for Mozzy (even cleaning up an accident he had without us requesting she do so). 10 out of 10 would recommend. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - April Estates

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 .

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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
