“Maeve is great! She cared for our 5 month old puppy and gave us an awesome update on how he did. From the second we met her on our meet and greet we knew she was an animal lover and would treat our baby well. It’s always scary having someone in your house that you don’t know but we knew we could trust Maeve from not only meeting her, but from all her reviews as well. We will definitely continue using her! Thank you Maeve!!”
“Once again our older cats who need lots of special attention did so well under Samantha’s care. We trust her so much and can enjoy our time away knowing we don’t have to worry.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and experienced dog lover who has cared for a wide range of breeds, including Labs, Mini Pins, Beagles, German Shepherds, Boxers, and French Bulldogs. I’ve worked with both energetic puppies and older rescue dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from basic training to providing extra patience and care for dogs who may be anxious or need a little more attention. I’m very intuitive when it comes to animals and take pride in understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and feeling safe, I’ll make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training methods, or special instructions you have. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 I currently work part-time while going through a career change and taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. Because of this, I’m able to dedicate real, unhurried quality time to your furry loved one rather than rushing through visits or walks. My routine allows me to be dependable and accommodating for a variety of care needs, whether it’s daytime visits, walks, or extended time with your pet. I’m happy to work with your schedule and make sure your pet gets the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to carefully listen to and understand your specific instructions, routines, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent for your pet. I am highly attentive and detail-oriented, ensuring that all rules—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise needs, or home guidelines—are followed exactly as requested. I respect your home and your pet’s environment, creating a calm, secure, and stress-free experience while you’re away. You can trust that your furry family member will be cared for with patience, responsibility, and genuine attention to their individual needs.
About: I work from home so your dog will receive constant supervision and companionship. A typical day includes regular bathroom breaks every few hours, interactive playtime, and scheduled feedings. We enjoy neighborhood walks and playing in the yard to burn off energy, followed by plenty of winding-down time on the couch in the evening. I work from a home office. I have one dog who spends their day with a mix of sleeping and playing. We take multiple outdoor breaks each day. I live in a home with a yard. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a secure environment, constant supervision, and strict adherence to your care instructions.
About: Your custom care is here. I’ve taken care of German Shepherds and small teacup poodles. Let me know what you need and I will do my best! I’m a full-time teacher so I get out of school at four so I can walk your dog then. I work in Hartford so I can also let your fur baby out on my break. Let me know if you need me watch or sit any of your pets over the weekend. Blessings! I live in a large condo association with lots of paved areas to walk. Some elevation and other friendly dogs around here. There’s a large vacant parking lot if they want to throw a ball or frisbee. There is a trail nearby if they want to walk in the woods or on rocks and dirt.
About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!
“Katie took care of my two cats while I was away. She was very responsive throughout the booking process and gave thorough updates after her visits. Katie was very kind and patient with my silly pet parent worries. The cats were well taken care of, and I would recommend Katie to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Highly recommended! Jen is kind, responsible, thoughtful and communicative. She cared for our golden retriever over a two day period with numerous drop ins on a set schedule, and sent detailed reports and photos after each visit. She cared for and about our dog’s physical and emotional health during our absence, and I felt confident that she could handle any problem that might arise. Thank you, Jen! Tucker looks forward to seeing you again!”
“Jade continues to do an excellent job taking care of our two cats. We're happy with her service and communication and will continue to rebook her whenever she's available. Highly recommend.”
“Jill was able to watch my dog last minute for a weekend away! She did a great job with her and asked questions right away if she had any concerns. She was also amazing with my anxious dog and helped with making her feel comfortable. She sent lots of pics which helped my anxiety as well 😊”
“Kelsey is wonderful. We knew Kelsey was a good match BUT we were 100% in when our two dogs were instantly relaxed with her . This is not the case more often than not for our Chi mix . Kelsey provides updates when she arrives and based on pictures she sends Milo and Lili are on totally board with their new friend. Even with current higher than normal temps, she is aware of the heat , pavement temp and keeping Lili and Milo in the shade so they do not overheat. Thank you Kelsey! This has been a huge help to us and we appreciate you taking good care of our furbabies. PS our cat, Waffles, seems to be passing on his overly rambunctious love to Kelsey also!!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.
About: I’ve had and taken care of cats my whole life. Friends and community members have relied on me for all of their pet care needs. I currently work a part time job with non-consistent hours. My best availability is on the weekends but I can make any weekday hours work. I do not offer any doggy daycare or boarding services, however I can effectively offer all pet care services from staying at your house to keep your pets happy to stoping by and walking, feeding, and having play time with your pet.
“This was the first time I booked Le'Andra to do daily check-ins on my cat Gabby while I was out of town. She was great! Le'Andra always stayed in communication with me by text. And she did her best to still take care of my cat while also dealing with the storm and very cold temperatures we recently had. Le'Andra is nice and very friendly. I would definitely request her again the next time I need a cat sitter, and would also recommend her to anyone considering booking her on Rover.”
About: At home I've been taking care of Ramsey, my small, high-energy, dog for almost 9 years. In these 9 years I've gained a larger a sense of responsibility and my love for animals has grown tremendously. I know how to communicate with dogs and read dog body language in order to cater to their needs and give them best care. As a recent graduate, I have more flexibility in my schedule, I can dedicate ample time to caring for my pets. This includes feeding, grooming, walking, and spending quality time with them to ensure their well-being and happiness. Engaging in activities like playing, training, and companionship not only enriches their lives but also brings a sense of purpose to my day. While job hunting, I find solace and a sense of responsibility in taking care of my pets, creating a positive and fulfilling routine amidst my current situation. At home I make sure my dog cannot access anything that can harm him. I close doors to the bathroom so he can’t access the trash can and I put gates up around the house to areas he can’t be in. During walks I am very careful and aware of my surroundings. If I walk at night, I walk in a well lit area with a few friends.

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 Avon 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 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 Meet & Greet .
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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
