“We love working with Lily! She is so communicative and takes amazing care of our pets. She lets us know if something seems a little out of the norm with them (one of our dogs had some health issues). She sends a bunch of pictures and is so thorough in her notes. Looking forward to working with her more in the future!!”
“We haven’t traveled since we got our cats 4 years ago. We finally did an overnight trip and I was beyond stressed. From the moment we first spoke to Lili I knew we made the right choice and I immediately felt at ease. Lili provided the best care for our babies and is so communicative and thoughtful. We will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future and cannot thank her enough for her incredible care, attentiveness and support!!”
About: Hello! We’re a dedicated cat loving couple with extensive experience in rescuing, fostering, and caring for cats through multiple animal shelters. Over the years, we’ve cared for cats of all temperaments and medical needs, including administering medications and supporting sick or recovering kitties. As the proud owners of eight beloved cats, we understand firsthand how challenging it can be to travel while worrying about your pets at home. Our goal is to provide fellow cat parents with true peace of mind knowing their feline family members are safe, comfortable, and cared for with the same love and attention we give our own. Whether you’re traveling for work or enjoying a well deserved vacation, we’re here to ensure your cats feel secure, enriched, and well looked after every step of the way. I can make time to vist during the day or at night. My work is flexible. For boarding will spend majority of the day around with the animals. I have enough rooms to be able to separate pets when needed. I have had experience with fostering and have 8 cats, so I have all the supply needed for cats care.
“Kristin F. did a fantastic job taking care of our rabbit Sasha.She followed our directions to a t and sent pictures after every visit and a report card. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Darsy was absolutely amazing with my 16-week-old puppy. She was consistently reliable, punctual, and genuinely caring. It's clear she loves dogs! We hope to rebook her when she’s back in our neck of the woods.”
About: I've had 3 rescue dogs of my own in the last 10 years and I've cared for friends and families pets alongside that. I was the manager of a pet sitting company for the 6 months and have been building my own clientele for nearly a year. I also have several years of experience with snakes, hamsters, horses and other farm animals. I run my own 2 businesses from home, so I can play with your pups anytime! Weekdays, occasional weekends or nights! Going on vacation? I got you covered! I tailor my care for your pet based on your needs. Walks, letouts in the yard, crating, gating, giving meds, etc. There won't be a break in your pup's care routine when you're at work or out of town.
About: I treat animals as a parent would with a child. It's all about knowing that every creature has a personality of their own and providing the appropriate enforcement for positive behavior and training. I work full-time, yet I make time for evening walks with my dog (if the temperature is bearable). On the weekends, I take her for 1-2 walks within the two days. Late Spring to mid Fall is the best time for outdoor fun. I have another older dog that is crate trained if they need to be caged in because of visitors. If a dog is trained well enough to not run off, I do have a wide open backyard they can run around in.
About: I've had a number of pets throughout my life that I have taken care of including dogs of all sizes. I hold a special place in my heart for pitbulls as my sweetest girl was a pittie mix. I'm also used to anxious animals and can manage a pet who doesn't appreciate human contact very much. I'm currently in graduate school, looking for work over the summer and hopefully continuing into weekends and evenings once classes begin again. I work part time in senior care. I believe every animal deserves a kind and loving home, regardless or species, breed, or temperament. I approach every animal with respect for their personal space but will happily pet and play with the ones who are comfortable.
“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!”
“Krizia was great! She was friendly, communicative, and flexible. She followed the care instructions that I provided. Moose and Duke loved her and she provided cute pictures with her update. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter on Rover.”
About: Hi, I am Brianna. I am a dog lover. I have 2 dogs of my own and they are my entire world. Growing up I have always taken care of other peoples dogs since the age of 14. I treat everyones dog as if it were my own and give it all of the love and care it needs/ deserves! I am available to watch pets any day of the week, and am more than willing to watch/ play with your pet! I am a very outgoing, and active girl who would love to spend time with dogs and be able to give them the best time while their owner is away. Keeping them safe and happy is my number one priority and something I love to do. I have a lot of flexibility and time available too.
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
“Brittany was great with my dog ! My senior lady isn’t the best with strangers but seemed to get along with Brittany. We got lots of pictures and we know our girl was well taken care of.”

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!

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 Auburn 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.
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.
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 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.

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.
