About: I’ve cared for my own dogs for years now and have worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility for 4 1/2 years. My neighbors always come to me when they need someone to take after their dogs. I’ve had experience feeding, giving medication, and training I currently work full time and usually get off early so I’ll have lots of time to care for your pups! I’m free most weekends and after 3 most days I’m not looking to provide home services at my home currently because I’m currently still living with my parents. Hopefully in the future that will be a paw-sability for me
“Brie does an excellent job caring for our all of our pets while we are on vacation. I feel confident she can quickly and effectively handle any situation that may come up. My mind is at ease knowing Brie is taking care of all of our pets.”
“Gabriel was attentive, caring and wonderful with our pets. He was reliable and we will definitely be using him again. We loved seeing the updates. The pets loved him too! Thanks for all your help!”
“Janice checked in our kitties for three days over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with her communication and the care she gave them. Each time she visited we received a thorough report and 20+ photos. She clearly really cared about making sure they were happy and went above and beyond to make sure we knew how things were going. I'd absolutely book her again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I got my dog in college and have been dedicated to his care no matter what. Through moves and full time jobs, he has always been #1. He is a senior now and needs a little extra attention in regards to mobility, so I am comfortable with that. When he was younger he had BOUNDLESS energy as well and was eager to please. I’ve seen both sides and love them and all the traits in between Pet care is a 24/7 deal. They give us unconditional love so we should always be dedicating ourselves to the same. Daily walks, exercise and for sniffing are both beneficial and also just someone to sit by and patrol the neighborhood I care for pets how their owners would because that’s what will make the dog the most comfortable with a new person in their environment. I will always follow the clients routines and expectations
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and experienced pet sitter who truly loves what I do. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and routines—from high-energy pups to laid-back seniors. I offer both in-home overnight stays and drop-in visits, depending on what works best for you and your pet. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m also very respectful of your home and will leave everything clean and just as you left it. My goal is simple: happy pets and your peace of mind! I currently work 3 mornings a week and there is always someone home when I am away. Your pet would be able to freely move about the house at all times unless you request they be crated. We have a fenced yard with a pool that has a secondary fence around it to keep your pet safe. I am able to follow your instructions for care and to provide a fun and safe experience for your pet.
“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”
“Steven is truly amazing! He showed so much care and attention to our 3 dogs. He is excellent with communication and we will definitely continue using him. I trust him with my dogs care and the safety of our home as well!!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Kathleen was absolutely amazing with our boy; from the meet and greet it was obvious how genuine she is and easily won over our nervous dog. The check-ins were perfect, gave medication, walks, play - couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!!!”

About: As an experienced foster dog caregiver and shelter volunteer, I understand that every pet deserves patience, compassion, and individualized care. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, personalities, and special needs, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in a home environment. In addition to my extensive hands-on animal experience, I hold an MBA and bring a high level of professionalism, reliability, and communication to every pet I care for. I know how important trust is when leaving your furry family member with someone else, and I’m committed to providing dependable care, regular updates, and peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, long walks, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring environment, my goal is to make them feel at home and cared for like one of my own. I truly enjoy helping others with their animals and providing the best care possible for every pet I meet. I work a consistent daytime schedule from 7:00 AM to 2:30 PM Monday Thru Friday, which allows me to be home every afternoon, evening, and overnight to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I am fully available on weekends and enjoy spending quality time with the dogs in my care through walks, playtime, cuddles, and maintaining their normal routines. My schedule allows me to provide dependable overnight care and a stable, loving environment while you’re away. I have a secure fenced-in yard where your fur baby can safely play, exercise, and enjoy outdoor time. Inside my home, I have a comfortable dedicated area available for pets to relax and feel at home during their stay. If your dog is crate trained or you prefer crate training while they are with me, I am happy to accommodate their normal routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free.
About: I spent 9 years in Alaska raising, training, racing, and caring for sled dogs, including successfully completing the 2018 Iditarod. During that time, I was responsible for the daily care, health, exercise, feeding, and wellbeing of large teams of dogs in all types of conditions. My experience includes caring for multiple dogs at once, managing high-energy and working breeds, administering medications, monitoring health and behavior, and recognizing the nuances of how dogs communicate. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels—from laid-back seniors to strong, active dogs that require confident handling and structure. I also enjoy working with puppies and young dogs. I'm familiar with potty schedules, crate routines, basic obedience reinforcement, and helping young dogs develop good habits through consistency and positive interactions. Whether your dog(s) wants to go on an adventurous walk, a dependable drop-in visit, or attentive overnight care, I treat every dog as if they were my own and just want to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Special Experience: • 9 years raising, training, and caring for sled dogs • Finisher of the 2018 Iditarod • Experienced with multi-dog households • Comfortable with high-energy and working breeds • Puppy and young dog care experience • Medication administration • Experience with senior dogs and special care needs • Strong leash handling and dog behavior awareness I am currently working full time, with a somewhat abnormal schedule. I am available on weekends, and some other evenings and mornings. I work 7am to 4pm one week, then 10am to 7pm the next week. I can not accommodate pets in my own home at this time. I am happy to travel to, stay with and take care of others' pets and their property.
About: I'm looking forward to hearing from you. I hope I can be of service to you when you need someone to watch your pet(s). You can let me know what their day to day routine is so that I can give them the care that they need. I don't have any pets of my own at this time but over the past twenty five years that I've lived here I've had both dogs and cats and even chickens. Even though I live out here in the country I'm usually within a thirty-minute drive or less from the Cincinnati area. We can discuss more in detail when we talk or text or do our meet and greet. Thanks. Make sure your pet(s) are up to date on their flea and tick treatments. I do work during the week but I am available to care for your pet(s) all day Wenesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I enjoy taking daily walks outside and getting exercise with the dogs. We play ball and play with whatever toys you bring over while we are inside. I make sure they are safe and well cared for the entire stay. I am home all day on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. We will have plenty of time to get outdoors for walks and potty breaks. I keep the dogs on leashes while we take our walks but I also have a tie cable I can put them on so we can stay out for awhile.
“They have been so incredibly kind and accommodating! An absolute godsend with a last minute trip and trying to find care for my cats. Will definitely book again and completely recommend!”
“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Hazel while I was out of town. Hazel has several specific needs, like medicine, special feeding instructions, and grooming needs, and Emma handled her complexity with care. She sent daily updates while I was away, which gave me peace of mind to know Hazel was being looked after during a stressful time. Emma absolutely came through for us and I’d recommend her to anyone!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 2,311 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Auburn. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Auburn. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
