About: My name is Taylor, and while i do need some extra income, spending time with dogs is the most ideal way for me. I love all animals and enjoy dogs more than people most likely. I will treat your dog with love and respect and I hope they enjoy me as well so they can be excited if I ever come back to see them again. I'm 31 and I would love to own a dog, but I can barely afford to feed myself so ill have to stick to hanging out with other people's dogs. Dogs are so pure and full of love and joy. There is something about being with a dog out in nature that just makes you think life is wonderful. I have Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays off and I have all those days free to spend time with any pets that need it. Any time those days I'm around. I live alone in a 1 bedroom apartment, but there is a golf course beside me that has a huge walking trail and I'd love to have a dog to walk with. I also can take them to all kinds of trails or parks around.
“Abby is always on time and is so good with my old girl. I trust her to take care of things for drop in visits when I’m not there. She is diligent and caring.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my babies! They clearly felt comfortable with you (as much as cats do with anyone). It’s awesome knowing I can leave confident that my babies are in good hands with you.”
“Zoe was incredible! Felt safe of mind having her care for our dog, following instructions perfectly and making sure the cats were all safely inside the whole visit. She communicated promptly and was so friendly. We enjoyed the pictures post visit and enjoyed hearing how well she played with our dog— we would absolutely book with her again!”

“Ashley arrived right on time for each of her visits and sent photos after, so we were able to enjoy our trip with total peace of mind. Our pets were relaxed and happy when we returned. Excellent service; we will book with Ashley again!”
About: Animal lover of many many years. I’ve taken care of my pets of all kinds since I was 5! I’ve taken care of pets of all ages, from raising litters of bottle fed kittens to cats well into their senior years! I take care of my pets every day!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Aurora
Gregory was very responsive and had great communication starting from the beginning of meeting our dog and through the end of the drop in visits for the weekend! Our dog Lola was in a perfectly fine mood upon our return - would definitely recommend for dog care and will definitely be booking in the future if needed! Thanks, Gregory!
Serena is an absolute gem! She’s incredibly communicative, friendly, and caring. She went above and beyond to understand how to care for my dogs. Not only did she ensure that my dogs were well taken care of, but she also took the time to make sure that my house was in top condition. I highly recommend Serena to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. You won’t regret booking her!
Brianna was an amazing sitter, while we went on vacation in Hawai’i she came and checked on my fur babies, she even helped with one of puppers escaping. She went above and beyond and ensured my packages were brought in the house without me asking, will definitely use her again.
Victoria is great! She's timely, communicative, and she's actually put in the effort to develop a relationship with our pets (cat + dog). They feel safe and comfortable around her. She has also been nice and flexible enough to work around unexpected situations and just very understanding overall. Would 100% recommend working with her.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Aurora 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 Aurora 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 .

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 Aurora 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.
