About: I have always grown up surrounded by animals and have grown to understand their nature and how to handle them. My ability to work with animals also stems from my experience in the past. I started a dog walking career when I was young and continued it until I had children, this included some overnight stays. I graduated from Dog Grooming School which helped increase my skills and ability to work with animals in many different ways. I then took professional careers at dog grooming salons and kennels while still maintaining my dog walking jobs. As my children grow, I would like to get back into the business and use my experience to help others take care of their (children). We have 4 children and while they are in school during the day, I'm looking to make some extra money to help out. But more importantly I'm looking to help others and their pets.
“Sara watched our dog on our wedding day and was absolutely amazing. She brought our pup to our wedding venue to get pictures with us and did a great job keeping up with him there. I felt at ease that I didn’t have to worry about my dog all day and knew he was in good hands from all the pictures and communication from Sara throughout the day. Thank you Sara!”

About: As far as I remember myself, I always had a cat in my house. From childhood I wanted to become a veterinarian and although I’ve gotten a different degree, my passion for animals never went away. I have a cat of my own, have work experience from a dog and cat daycare center, and experience from volunteering in Humane Society, so I know what kind of a care a pet deserves. Additionally, I took safety training at the pet daycare center, which thought me how to handle myself with cats and dogs in the best way. I am working part-time and have most days available for taking care of your pets! Usually I’m available every day in early mornings and after 5 pm, and any time on Fridays and weekends For boarding, I have a spacious home with a fenced backyard if you desire your cats to take a stroll and I know how to safely take you dog on a walk!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet. I’ve been around dogs and helping care for them since I was 10, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I also currently have a one-year-old puppy of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic dogs, maintaining routines, reinforcing good behavior, and providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. I understand how important consistency and trust are when caring for someone’s pet, and I always make sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether they’re playful and active or prefer a calmer environment. Pet parents can expect reliable communication, regular updates, and lots of photos for peace of mind. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’m currently in grad school and work for a local school district, which means I have summers off and additional flexibility throughout the year. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate different routines and last-minute needs when possible. Because I have a one-year-old puppy of my own, I’m already used to maintaining consistent feeding, potty, exercise, and play schedules, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve while their owners are away. Safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of each home and always keep pet areas clean, secure, and safe. Because I have a one-year-old puppy of my own, I’m very mindful about supervision, consistency, and creating a positive environment for animals. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

Whether it’s long walks, fun runs, or creating stimulating activities to keep them mentally engaged, I tailor each visit to your dog’s unique energy level and personality.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about two years now. Neighbors, friends, and professors have all relied on me to walk, feed, play, and just watch over their dogs over the years. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I am a master’s student and soon to be substitute teacher, meaning I have flexibility to do morning, afternoon, & evening walks & care in addition to overnight stays! The safety and comfortability of the dog I am caring for is of the upmost importance to me. Wherever I am, I make an effort to engage with dogs in play and their favorite activities. I do my best to make the most out of whatever space I find myself in. This can look like long walks, short walks, outside and inside playtime, oral medication administration, and more.
About: I’m a very active sitter, I love to walk, drive, waltz and run. I may also do a hand-drawn portrait of your dog, in addition to making sure they are very well taken care of. c: I love big dogs and lil angels. Afternoon walks, early and late morning strolls, dinner and late night walks are my peak times. A lot of peaks in the day. Weekends are for the birds though. If in your home, I will make sure they stay in the zone you’d like, are well fed and get plenty of outside time. I used to have a dog with allergies so I will make sure they get any medications if needed. In my home as well, we have three very loving people, big open spaces, a nice neighborhood to play.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
