“Gianna was super communicative and attentive, she did a great job taking care of our nervous puppy and making sure he had the best experience for his first Rover visit.

About: I owe dogs for more than 10 years and I am confident with playing with them and building trust and funny environment! I love dogs! I can serve two per day on the time being but may be in future having some arrangements to accommodate more within the day and the weekend. We clean our house and yard. Safety first, mowe the lawn on weekly basis. pet boarding, dog walking, and pet sitting required momently monitoring their moves and directions and the pet feels welcome and easy to follow up with basic orders. Safety around and fir my family members are also included.

About: I grew up surrounded by 3 dogs all throughout my childhood. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages as well as rabbits. I have experience in elderly dog care as I had taken care of my elderly dog, helping him stand and ensuring medications were given on time. I have two adoring kittens who I’ve raised from 4weeks old, i’ve had cats all while growing up. I can do deep litter box cleanings if asked. I strive to not only meet your needs and make you happy but also ensure your pet is happy and feels loved under my care. I work early mornings and get out at 2pm at the latest, meaning I have the majority of the day to be able to walk, play, and spend time with your pet(s). We can soak up the sunshine and they’ll always get dinner on time. I love to play with your pets, ensuring they get their energy out and have a good time. I love to go on walks with your dog or play with them in a yard.
About: I treat every dog like family-with love, patience, and attetion. I make sure each pyp feels safe, happy, loved and cared for while you're away. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I set aside time every day for walks, feeding and playtime. i enjoy spending time with animals and always make sure they are well cared for. During walks, I focus on the dog's safety and wellbeing. I choose quiet routes when possible, bring water if it's hot, and make sure they get exercise and simulation. I always treat them withcare and respect
About: I have hands-on experience caring for geriatric, diabetic, and epileptic dogs and cats, making me comfortable with special needs pets who require extra attention. I’m skilled at administering oral medications, giving insulin injections, and monitoring pets for any changes in their health or behavior. I also have plenty of experience walking dogs of all sizes—from tiny lap pups to large, energetic breeds—always focusing on their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time as a Veterinary Assistant, which gives me hands-on experience with animal care and handling in a clinical setting. I’m also a student enrolled in an online Veterinary Technology program, so I’m always learning and expanding my knowledge about animal health and behavior. Because of my flexible schedule, I have availability on some weekdays and weekends for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. This allows me to combine my passion for animals with my professional training while giving pets the love and attention they deserve when their families can’t be there. Whenever I’m in a home with pets, I make it a priority to tune into their needs, read their body language, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Every pet has their own personality—some love long walks and playtime, while others just want cuddles and belly rubs. If your pet is the snuggly type, I’m always happy to curl up with them and give all the love, scratches, and attention they need!
“Joyce and Chao took care of our cat in a trustworthy & caring manner. We received video updates each visit. In addition Joyce brought inside any packages as well as helping us to unplug some appliances we forgot to. We also appreciate the schedule flexibility of every-other-day visits.”

About: I grew up on a farm, and always cared for multiple dogs at the same time. My wife and I have had, or cared for dogs almost all our adult lives. I enjoy caring for dogs and spending time walking with them, playing with them, and just being with them. I recently retired, and my wife works from home, so we’re both here all day. I take daily walks, and spend a lot of time outdoors. I have a good-sized yard, live in a quiet neighborhood, and my property borders conservation land. I can easily accommodate a crate, dog bed, etc.
“Daniel was an excellent drop-in visitor and playmate for our cat Georgie. We really appreciated his friendliness, prompt communication, and genuine affection for our cat. Bonus points for his availability short notice during holiday season as well! We’d definitely recommend Daniel.”


About: I am a proud dog aunt and cat mom. Over the past decade I have taken care of many dogs and cats, from hosting them in my home while their people were away, house/pet sitting, to providing home visits and walking. Dog-wise, I have taken care of a wide variety of pals, both size and personality-wise: small dogs, mediums dogs, all the way up to a large mastiffs and Shepards. Couch potatoes, protectors, playful & energetic buds, and snugglers. I have taken care of a dog with a chronic illness requiring particular food preparation. I've taken care of multiple dogs with protective personalities and approach with a mixture of confidence and willingness to meet them where they are. As a cat mom and ongoing cat sitter, I've taken care of my late cat with a chronic illness for many years, requiring a special diet and daily medication; friends' cats shy to new people; and a diabetic cat, requiring regular insulin shots. Cats hold my heart (don't tell the above paragraph.) I am a part-time non-profit consultant. I primarily work from home with occasional meetings out of the house. I am active in community theater, but am working on the administrative end for the foreseeable future, which means I am generally home during evenings. I have a lot of flexibility to build my schedule as needed based on pet care bookings with a few key, short responsibilities each week. You are the expert on your pet. My starting point is your information and guidance. After that, I use my experience meeting and caring for many different animals and personalities. I am an intuitive and patient person. I'm aware that pets may feel differently away from their people and potential away from their environment. I stay attuned to them and meet them where they are. They are aware, intelligent beings with reactions, routines, expectations, and feelings and I don't take that like likely.
“Rachel has been an awesome find! She is flexible and super communicative. We appreciate her attentiveness to our boy Moose and look forward to continuing to have her care for him!”

About: I've lived with animals since I was 11—including 3 cats and a dog—and my mom has always adopted senior pets with medical needs, so I’m used to gentle care, giving medications, and adapting routines for older or anxious animals. I'm calm, quiet, and patient, which makes me a great match for pets that are shy, reactive, or need a soft presence. I respect animals’ boundaries, take their comfort seriously, and genuinely enjoy being around them—whether that means walks, playtime, or just existing together in peace. I'm especially good with cats and have experience with dogs who need space or structure. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and prefer part-time work, so I can prioritize animals without feeling rushed. I take my time, move at the pet’s pace, and always make space for their needs. I prioritize calm, quiet, and consistency when coming to clients homes. I respect each animal's space, follow all care instructions exactly, and check in often if something seems off. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and understood at all times.
About: I have been fostering dogs in my home for the past 2 years and have cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Through fostering, I've gained experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, routines, and people. I also volunteer monthly by taking foster dogs on field trips around town, to parks, and on neighborhood walks to help with socialization and exercise. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always focus on providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel at home. I am available anytime and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care whenever needed. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, daytime check-ins, evening care, overnight stays, or weekend attention, I can accommodate their routine. I understand the importance of consistency and will make sure your pet receives plenty of care, exercise, companionship, and attention while you're away. In my home, pets will stay in a safe and welcoming apartment environment. While I don't have a yard, I regularly take dogs on walks around my apartment complex and to a large nearby field where they can enjoy exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. I closely supervise all pets and make sure they have access to water, comfortable resting areas, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I can provide feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, litter box cleaning, and companionship. If crate training or crating is part of the pet's routine, I can safely crate dogs when supplies and instructions are provided. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, fresh water is always available, and they receive the appropriate amount of interaction based on their personality and preferences. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and I currently share my home with one dog and five cats. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life—since childhood, I’ve looked after dogs of all sizes, taking on responsibilities like feeding, walking, and even administering medications when needed. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve also volunteered with rescued dogs, helping them on their journey to find their forever homes. My duties included cleaning kennels, managing waste, ensuring their well-being by providing food, water, exercise, and, most importantly, love and companionship. Animals have always been my passion, and I’m dedicated to giving them the care and attention they deserve. I am a high school student, and can take care of your furry pet(s) after school or during the weekend. During school vacation and summer, I can provide care at all times. I will follow the pet owner's instructions for their pet care. No one knows your furry-pet better than you do and I can be flexible. My mission is to make them feel cared for and happy.

We couldn't have asked for a better first experience as first time dog parents! Nikkita sent tons of adorable photos and kept us completely in the loop with updates on walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and snuggles. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in such great hands!

Gianna was super communicative and attentive, she did a great job taking care of our nervous puppy and making sure he had the best experience for his first Rover visit. She was also so thoughtful about small details, like cleaning his Kong toy and bringing in packages, which goes such a long way :) will book again!

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.
