“Olivia was extremely attentive to all 3 of my pets needs and gave all 3 of them love and play as well as the care they required. I would highly recommend her services and will be using her again going forward”
“Lindsay took care of our (cat) babies like they were her own. She took photos of them every time she came to see them, and spent time playing with them as well as feeding and medicating as needed. My cats loved her from the very first introduction. Lindsay is not only an animal lover, she's also a great lady. She surprised us with a list of places and things to try since she knew my husband and I had just moved into the area! We’re definitely looking forward to having her care for our cats in the future.”
“Samantha is amazing! She took a very good care of our cat while we were traveling. She checked on her twice a day and fed her and played with her. Our cat is very happy :) and we’re happy as well. Very trustful and kind person. She’s gonna be our choice from now on! Thank you Samantha! ☘️”
“Cass took great care of our pups! Showed up on time and stayed the agreed amount of time. We appreciate her coming by to let them out why we entertained our out of town visitors! We look forward to her coming back!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and just love animals. I currently have two cats of my own and plan on owning a dog once I’m out of an apartment. I’ve been pet sitting for about 3 years now since I’ve been out of college. I have experience with cats dogs and bunnies and the most I’ve handled at one time is two dogs, three cats, and a bunny for one family on their home. I can provide overnight care, or dog walking in the morning or evening. I do work full time during the week as a civil engineer but can be available on weekends or before or after work. I work full time during the week but am available morning/evenings and weekends to check in and play with your pets. I can do some overnights in your home if needed. I make sure your dogs are going out as much as they need to and fed when needed. I make sure your cats are fed at the times needed and they always have a clean litter box. I only care for pets in your home.
“Allison was very friendly and communication was great, making for a very seamless experience. We have 3 cats, one of which is diabetic and requires insulin injections. We were very comfortable with leaving our cats in Allison’s care and will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve always had animals growing up and have always had an interest in taking care of animals. As soon as I was old enough family and friends have had me watch their animals. Dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, reptiles, you name it! I could not imagine having a life without animals. Currently I have two Siberian huskies, two cats, and one bunny. I’ve also had a lot of experience giving dogs and cats medication, and know all the tricks to get them to take it in a quick and easy manner. I’d like to say I’m very responsible, and will absolutely treat your animals like my own. My mornings and afternoons are typically very available, because I own an aerial studio and those classes are mainly held at night. I am a very active person so I am always looking to add more walks into my daily routine. At my home I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly, playful dogs. I do have two cats as well, but they can easily be separated. I also have two crates at my house that both of my dogs comfortable can go in when needing to be separated. At clients homes I can do anything you need me to for your pet. Treats, walks, playtime, crate time, and even snuggles.

“Jessica was caring and attentive to our kitties! She was able to modify some instructions when my kitten wasn’t eating as well and was very communicative with updates. Thanks, Jessica!”
“Jenny is a wonderful sitter. She does drop in service for my 2 dogs. She worked through some confusion on the first day responsibly. Most importantly, my dogs feel comfortable with her.”
“Andrea was very nice and had excellency communication. On top of that she was able to get Tucker in last minute (the next day). For sure recommend using Andrea for your furry family.”
“She was awesome being able to help me out with a couple days notice. She was able to follow my instructions of feeding my cats loving on them and ironically, most importantly, keeping my plant/flowers alive while I was on vacation by watering them. Thank you so much!”
About: I have worked in a veterinarian customer care setting for over 5 years as well as I have 5 years of experience as a dog walker, daycare worker, and boarder. I am able to administer medications including insulin. With my knowledge of vet medicine, I do know when an animal’s condition needs immediate medical attention. I believe safety, transparency, and communication are all really important when taking care of someone else’s pet. All fur friends are beloved members of their families and so, I always try to provide the utmost care to any pet that I work with. I am both an animal care provider as well as a private voice lesson teacher. These two careers work beautifully together with scheduling as the first half of my day is dedicated to animal care and the second half to music. I only care for pets in the owner’s home because I have two dogs at home myself. I make sure that I always leave a space the way it was when I entered being mindful of cleanliness (like not tracking dirt into the house, etc). If a dog seems more timid during the first visit, I make sure to take the time and go slow to give your pet time to warm up to me. If we are outside walking, safety is my number one priority. Making sure that the clasp on the leash/walking gear is secure, and not interacting
About: I started out dog walking about the age of 10, I have always had a passion for animals since I was young. My career with animals then started in doggy daycare as a teen, and I then moved up to a vet receptionist and made my way to a vet tech which I have been doing for 6 years now. I love all animals greatly and I am looking for more jobs to be around them. I currently work at my vet hospital Monday - Friday until 3pm so I am looking for part time weekend jobs. Willing to work around different hours during the day on the weekends. I myself have two cats, and one dog I am experienced caring for them in home settings and Hospital settings with my career as a vet tech and very experienced with keeping them safe, fed and loved! I also have experience giving medications and feedings and leash walks.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Auburn
Kelsey was amazing! I went away for two weeks and she was a critical part of my care plan for the pups! She was reliable and easy to communicate with. Both Frankie and Hank were so happy when Kelsey arrived for her check ins. She kept me in the loop with updates, pictures and made sure they had everything they needed during check-ins! She even got to know their different personalities and quirks that make them special. Over all super happy that we met Kelsey! Would highly recommend!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Auburn stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Auburn choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 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. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Auburn with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
