About: Hi there, I have had my current dog for 14 years now and I got her when she was a puppy. About 2 years ago I became a dog dad to a Belgian Malinois and about 5 years ago another dog joined our family Hi! I’m Joshua, a reliable and attentive pet lover who genuinely enjoys getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. I work from home, so I’m able to be around your pets throughout the day and provide plenty of potty breaks, companionship, attention, and supervision. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and pets who need a little extra patience or specialized care. I’m comfortable following individual feeding schedules, routines, medications, and care instructions because I know every pet has different needs. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet as an individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether your dog wants to play, go for a long walk, relax beside me while I work, or simply have some extra attention and cuddles, I’m happy to follow their lead. I also know how important it is to feel connected to your pet while you’re away. I love sending regular photo and message updates so you can see how your pup is doing and know they’re having a great time. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of many different ages, breeds, and personalities, including senior pets and pets requiring medication or additional care. I currently have senior dogs of my own, which has given me firsthand experience with the patience, consistency, and attention that older pets can require. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and keeping a close eye on changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall wellbeing. Your pet’s normal routine matters to me, and I’ll do my best to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away.

During walks and playtime I can give your pet more leisurely activities or more active games depending on what is best for your pet!
“Let’s was very patient with our skittish dogs and she worked on having them warm up to her more each day. She left daily updates and pictures to show how they were doing each day. She did a great job of making them feel safe and comfortable. We would love to have her pet sit for us again and highly recommend her!”

About: I used to sit for a German family, whether it was date night, or when they left the country to visit their family. They were always so grateful they could trust me. They have moved out of state and I miss it. Let me take care of your furry baby like my own. I work M-Thurs, Friday I work from home, from 8am-5pm. I can do weekends or after work. If its house sitting then I would stay in your home. I will follow instructions on how you want me to take care of your pet, I know pets can get anxious and miss their family. I will try my best to offer comfort and familiarity.
About: Lets take the stress out of going out of town and finding a caregiver for your "furry kids". Since I was young, I was called on to look after my friends and neighbor's pets while they were away. I have lots of experience training in caring for these furry friends. In more recent years I've incorporated animal therapy and animal Reiki into my holistic business practice as well. I often travel for work, so that allows for a wide radius for pet care as well. I'm also often working remotely, with plenty of time to incorporate pet care. Perfect for in house sits! I most often do in-house pet sitting for clients. A comfortable environment is key in your home or mine, so i like to provide a nurturing environment. Taking care of the needs of my furry friends is a priority whether that's exercise, administering medicine, or just some love and attention. Keeping things tidy is always helpful.
“Holly is a genuine dog lover. She was attentive to our dog and cared for him as if he were her own. We came home from a week long trip to a dog who was healthy and happy being cared for in his own home. Highly recommended.”

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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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. 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.
