“Alex is a wonderfully caring, kind, trustworthy, and responsible dog walker. I have a young puppy who is being potty trained and a geriatric dog that he came over to walk twice a day while I was at work. He came over to meet my dogs beforehand for a meet and greet and I instantly was able to sense how genuinely caring he is and how much he loves dogs! My mind was at ease leaving my dogs to be cared for by him. He sent frequent updates, including pictures and any questions or concerns that he had. My dogs each really love their time with Alex and we are blessed to have had him to watch them while I was away! I would VERY HIGHLY recommend Alex to care for your dogs as well. My two dogs and I are all so very grateful to him!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. Currently have a dog and two cats that I love to bits. I always find time to be out playing with my dog and keeping cats company when it comes to the night hours. I’m currently not working but I do have the transportation to get around for check ins on pets. I have free time on my hands at the moment so my schedule is really open to going in the morning, going in the afternoon, and going in the evening times before bedtime. I do not offer boarding in my own home, so being in the client's home I would be sure to introduce myself to the dogs, be outside while dogs are playing, and always attentive as to where an animal is within the house or backyard.
About: Needing a pet sitter? Well, you found her! I'm putting my self out there and offering services to the residents of Peaster/Poolville. I have worked 10+ years at a local animal emergency hospital. If your pet needs medications or is a diabetic, you might already know how hard it can be to find a boarding facility (without having to pay for medical boarding). My family and I have lived in Peaster for 13 years now and we love our community. Availability Schedule Monday through Friday, I work from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. I am available for lunchtime drop-in visits or walks around 12:00 PM or 1:00 PM, depending on location and scheduling. I am off the majority of weekends, so weekend availability may be more flexible. Please feel free to reach out to confirm availability for weekend visits or special requests. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is for animals to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special routines your pet is used to. I take my time getting to know each pet’s personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic and loves attention or shy and needs a gentle approach, I adjust my care to fit their needs. I also make sure their environment stays clean, safe, and stress-free by checking food and water, cleaning up after them, and keeping their space tidy. With my veterinary field experience, I am comfortable caring for pets with medical needs, giving medications, and watching for any changes in behavior, appetite, or overall health. I will always communicate with you and provide updates so you can feel confident that your pet is being well cared for while you are away.

“Karrington is the best cat sitter! We plan our vacations around her availability because our cats really seem to enjoy time with her. She is communicative, treats our kittens like they were her own, and I trust her with the house and the kitty babies. Our littlest is very shy, but always warms up to Karrington pretty quick and that’s a huge honor. Thanks Karrington! You’re the best!”

“Lucilla was great! This was my first time using Rover and it did not disappoint. I had set up 30min drop-in visits and Lucilla was wonderful at sending updates and photos whenever she came to check in on Sampson. I would definitely suggested reaching out to her to take care of your furry family members.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for most of my life, helping family, friends, and neighbors with everything from daily walks and feeding to overnight care while they're out of town. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. I'm comfortable caring for multiple pets, following detailed feeding and medication instructions, reinforcing established routines, and sending regular photo and video updates so you can relax while you're away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is for your pet to feel cared for and for you to have complete peace of mind. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visits, evening care, or overnight stays, I'll do my best to accommodate your needs. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I work to keep them on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'm happy to communicate throughout each visit by sending photos and updates, so you'll always know how your pet is doing while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, crate routines, and any special needs. I take the time to earn each pet's trust and never force interactions, allowing them to feel comfortable at their own pace. I'll keep your home clean and secure, make sure doors and gates remain closed, and provide plenty of affection, enrichment, and exercise based on your pet's individual personality and energy level. My goal is to give your pet loving, reliable care while giving you confidence that they're in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
