“Rose is fabulous. My first time using rover. I love all she does for the pups. We have 5 dogs and she does an amazing job. Plays with them, loves them. I could not ask for a better drop in. Definitely will use her again”
About: I have experience in home health care for the elderly, often providing support that extends to their pets as well. My experience with pets have been primarily dog walking for clients, feeding, pet/home maintenance I’m currently making myself entirely open to this experience into pet care as to making this my career. I enjoy being connected more with present life, and I feel as taking care of animals would set me on that track. I offered care to pets by fulfilling their needs, wants, and offering companionship. I also intend on extending care to making the environment more hygienic for the pet.
“Ava was excellent director by her time as our sitter. She did drop in visits with our cat, and she was very communicative. We will use Ava again when we need to go out of town!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. Raised from a puppy to senior and believe they are wonderful blessings to everyone. My personal pets have been pugs, English bulldogs, dachshunds, rottweilers, pit bulls, and many more growing up. I enjoy getting to know each dog or cat’s need and have them enjoy their time with me. My goal is to make your dog or cat feel comfortable when you are away from home. I work remotely and letting your dog out often is never an issue. If I’m out on Saturday or Sunday it’ll only be for an hour or two. We will take breaks often to let your dog feel comfortable. When I am caring for your pet in your home, I want to know their preferences and what makes them the most comfortable while you are away. If they have a special blanket or toy, please let me know so they can have something to keep them happy while I’m there. I also want to know what makes you as the pet parent most at ease. Help me support you and your pet.
About: I love animals and I will go above and beyond to make your furry friend happy. I am reliable and patient. I would love to meet your furry friend! I’m currently working full time as a teacher and looking to start dog walking for exercise after work! I am especially looking for summer time walking and drop ins to make some extra income! I am trustworthy and always on time to the job. I will make sure that I treat your dog or cat the way I would want my cat treated.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds: From puppies to seniors, energetic to couch potatoes and everything in between!! I’m great with set schedules such as: walks, feedings, meds (if needed), any special commands or routines of sorts. I am guaranteed to have tail wagging reviews!! I’m currently transitioning into a new job, however weekdays I can be available after 3:30pm, as well as weekend open availability for overnights or drops or even just walks. Whatever you need I’d be happy to help you! I do not have the space at my own place for dogs or cats to stay. However I do have reliable transportation to get me to your home and tend to your fur baby!! I am great with any schedules left for me to follow as well as locking up prior to leaving.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was a child. I have helped my girlfriend train our current dog which is a bernedoodle. He knows how to sit, shake, go to his pillow, and he is currently learning to roll over. I currently have a Doberman at my parents house that I help take care of while I am home. I am currently a dental student at Ohio state and I am in school from 7:30-4:00 daily but the weekends I am free. Some days I will finish before 4:00 but that depends on the week. I feed and water my current dogs and cats every morning and every evening. They get treats throughout the day when they exhibit good behavior and listening skills so they know that is a positive thing to keep doing it.
“Heidi has been doing daily drop ins for our two dogs for almost two weeks now. She is wonderful. Lots of communication, pictures, and goes the extra mile. I was hesitant about using Rover instead of taking my dogs to daycare. She has reinforced that we made the right choice!”
About: I've grown grown up around animals. I decided to go into the veterinary field. I am most of the way through Vet tech school and plan on taking the Board exam in August. I care for sick animals and happy puppies for a living and wouldn't ask for it any other way. I'm currently working part time at a vet clinic and am taking college classes to become a technician. At home I have 2 cats, a dog, and a rabbit that I care for and love with all my heart. I follow any directions given to me to the letter. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog, I can walk the dogs as many times a day as requested and have space to crate a dog if necessary.
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands-on experience caring for my own rescue pup, Wubzy! He’s a high-energy 2-year-old, so I’m very comfortable handling playful, active dogs and making sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like my own—with patience, love, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe and happy. I’m reliable, attentive, and always willing to follow any specific routines or instructions you have for your pet. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve! I’m available weekdays from 7am to about 5pm and full-time on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I can adjust my schedule when needed and will always make sure your pet gets consistent care, playtime, and potty breaks. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean home where dogs can play and relax. I also have friendly dogs who can keep your pup company if they enjoy being social. I’m able to crate your dog if needed and will always follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special care. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated like family at all times.
About: Hi! I’m Brittany, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. As the proud owner of a happy 5-year-old French Bulldog, I understand that pets are family and deserve patience, love, and personalized care. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their daily routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, administering basic medications, and caring for dogs with unique personalities and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages, giving you peace of mind throughout your time away. My Services 🐾 Dog Boarding 🐾 House Sitting 🐾 Drop-In Visits 🐾 Dog Walking Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. As the owner of a 5 yr old Frenchie, my days already revolve around walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, and making sure my own dog is happy and healthy. Because caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s easy to incorporate additional pets into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so every dog gets the attention, exercise, and one-on-one care they deserve. Whether it’s an early morning walk, midday potty break, afternoon play session, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet receives consistent care and plenty of affection. I truly love spending time with animals! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to keep pets comfortable, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality because some dogs love to play all day, while others are happiest relaxing with belly rubs and cuddles. In a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment, keep everything clean and tidy, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners can enjoy their time away without worrying. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. They receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable place to relax. I keep plenty of clean toys, orthopedic beds and blankets on hand so your pet feels at home. My goal is always to make them feel loved and at home.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11. From running over to let out the neighbor’s dog, to pet sitting for friends & family members while they’re on vacation. I grew up in a home with two dogs, both of which I’ve helped care for and go out of my way to spoil with love. Fun fact: I’ve also raised and cared for goats, rabbits, cats, turtles, frogs, and fish. I am a full-time student, but I would love to care for (& walk!) your furry companion(s) in my spare time. I’m a firm believer that the best therapists have wagging tails! I recently adopted a German Shepherd/Labrador Retriever and I can assure you that I will care for your pet with the same enthusiasm and warmth as I do her.
About: I have 5 animals- 4 cats & 1 dog. I have always had such a connection with animals, I enjoy taking care of them & bonding, I have fostered dogs & my animals were all adopted from shelters. I am able to sit for several animals, cats included- as well as walking the animals, feeding, bathing, playing, you name it! I work Monday through Friday I would be available in the evenings after work & early mornings on the weekends! I work from home Monday and Tuesdays so I can provide doggy daycare during those days as well. I do have animals myself so I typically would come home feed and let them out and then I am available all evening! In my clients home I can take them on walks if a yard with a fence is available I still will go out with them have playtime, & still take them on the occasional or everyday walks if that is preferred! I will feed & look after them as well if dog sitting is requested rather than just a walk - I can also help practice things that the dog parent is wanting like crate training, training in general.. I also watch cats so I can play with them, feed & look after also

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ashville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
