About: I’m a genuine dog lover who enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether you’re busy, traveling, or just need an extra hand, I’m happy to help give your dog the love and attention they deserve. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I truly enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to help others feel at ease knowing their furry family member is in caring hands. I work at home so I do 24/7 care. My world is surrounded with dogs, I just love them so I work with them and everyday it's a blast. I have a wonderful 2 acre backyard that's fenced for my fuzzy guests to stretch their legs and enjoy a park all to themselves. I spend my hours outside working on little projects so your baby's will get to just relax or play to their heart's content and then after a long day I like to end it with cuddles and movie on the couch.

About: Caring for animals has never been just a job for me, it's something I genuinely love. Over the years I've cared for pets and animals in many settings, from shelters, to nature centers, and private homes. Each experience has taught me how deeply animals and pets rely on trust, patience, and kindness. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sitting quietly beside a shy pet. I make it my goal to give them the same love and comfort they'd get from their own family. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine, and I prioritize it alongside my professional goals. While I am currently seeking full-time employment, I remain committed to providing consistent and reliable care for the pets I look after. I structure my schedule to ensure that feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins are never compromised. When caring for pet stays in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable and safe in a clean, pet-friendly environment. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while keeping routines consistent with what they're use to. When caring for pets in clients homes, I respect both the pet's routine and the clients space. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to medications, while keeping the home tidy, and secure. I focus on making pets feel at ease while their owners are away by maintain their normal environment and daily habits.

About: I have lifelong experience with pups of all kinds, having at least 2 in my household since I was a kid. I consistently care for my neighbor's and friend's dogs and always receive positive feedback! I also have plenty of experience with both puppies and senior dogs! Can care for cats as well! I'm a full-time college student, so my schedule varies day to day. I find plenty of time between and after classes where I can tend to your pups! I'm in an apartment so unfortunately I cannot take care of your pups at my home, only client's homes. However I am super flexible when it comes to your dogs needs and I can work around any obstacles or special preferences in your homes!

“Abigail did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats. She followed all our directions and adapted to one of our cats not wanting to come out to eat. She spent time getting to know them and played with Lavender, who doesn’t always want to play. I highly recommend her to care for your animals, she will do a great job!”

About: Love pets! Have two dogs at home myself with my wife and two kids. We are happy to look after your loved ones and treat them with the same care that you provide yourself. We would treat your pets like our own family. We would be quick to call you with any issues we are noticing with your own pets. We can work with your schedule to accommodate your needs. There are plenty of animals around our neighborhood as well, so walks would be a lot of fun for your pets. Our fenced in yard allows your pet to roam free without fear of them escaping. Pets make our lives better overall is my belief and I hope that you are willing to trust your pets with us! Plenty of time to play with animals especially on the weekends, happy to take them places, parks, trails, etc. Spending time with pets just makes life better everyday. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys for them to play with in our yard. We also have dog beds inside and plenty of water bowls.

About: I have raised and trained my own Alaskan Malamute/German Shepherd mixed dog as a wonderful and unforgettable companion. I would love to share my experience and care with your furry companion as well. I work from home so I am glad to offer pet assistance and services often. I can also work from a laptop or my phone so I’m glad to travel and serve as I can. My Alaskan Malamute is an inside/outside dog. He enjoys his time on my front lawn via a simple shock collar and has free roam within my home.

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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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 .

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.

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.
