About: I started dog sittng in college for my professors and quickly grew to love it. I've gained experience walking, feeding, and caring for dogs, and I bring these skills to my own pets as well. I'm excited to provide the same care and attention to your dog while you're away. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I can accomodate your need. I also offer pickup and drop-off services for a small fee. I have a fenced yard providing a secured space for your dog to play and relax. I also have a senior male Australian Shedperd who loves to play with other dogs, so your pet will have a friendly companion during the stay.
“Jackie is so totally incredible in every possible way with my 3 fur babies! I have 2 dogs and a senior cat. They were cared for in such kind and loving ways that it just was so special beyond what my words express. Her daily communication and pics were also priceless. Thank you for all of your care Jackie!”
“New kitten in the house necessitated a drop in. Kate did great trying to engage her though Lucy was a bit skiddish. As always, Ollie was happy to see her, as was Callie despite her remaining under the bed.”
“She was wonderful with our pups! We haven't been gone so long before and were a little unsure how they would do. But she was great and they loved her- she was So patient and great at communicating with us about what they were up to!”
“Jessica had great communication and sent us some sweet pictures and updates of our dog when we were gone! Happy to know he was loved when we weren’t home. Thank you!!”
“Mary has been awesome with my high maintenance kitties. Both get daily medication and sometimes they can be difficult, but she is able to give it to them. Will definitely use again.”
About: I strive to cater to each pet's specific needs while providing a reliable service. Over the years, I have cared for dogs of all sizes, reptiles, rabbits, and cats. I've had success with training dogs not to pull when being walked, but I am currently not an accredited trainer. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am normally available on weekdays in the morning and afternoon. I am open to offering my services outside of those hours on a case by case basis, pending availability. I am happy to go over any guidelines regarding pet care, house/yard access, and pet activities during a meet a greet prior to the first visit. I'm a big believer of talking to pets, walking them as much as needed, playing with them, and challenging them mentally. When possible I prefer to walk dogs in a park or on a nature path instead of in a concrete jungle.
“I had a fantastic experience with Lori as my pet sitter for two weeks while I was away. I highly recommend her! She provided daily drop-in visits for my cat and demonstrated excellent communication skills throughout our time together. It was clear that she genuinely cares for animals, as she took the time to ask questions and ensure my cat received the best care possible each day. I am extremely happy with the service Lori provided and am very thankful to have found her. I will definitely reach out to Lori for future pet sitting needs!”
“Chrissy took care of our 2 kitties over Thanksgiving and was absolutely wonderful. Great communication and took great care to ensure our kitties had plenty of stimulation and attention! Will hope to hire her again!”
“I can’t enough AMAZING things about Megan! She has been a God-sent for our new baby Onix and she cares for him so much! She is careful with what he encounters outside and is helpful keeping consistency with us on his command words we are training him with.”
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of friends, neighbors, and family. Outside of just my own dogs, I love dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. I’m comfortable with active walks, medication routines, and adapting to each pet’s unique personality and play-style. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or a total cuddle-bug, we will both enjoy our time together. I’m detail‑oriented, patient, and committed to making every pet feel safe and genuinely loved while you’re away. I'm currently searching for a career position, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I’m home frequently and can provide consistent attention throughout the day. I care about your dogs' healthy routines, as I know they will help mine. I offer a flexible schedule, weekend availability, and reliable communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I hope you like update photos! In my home, each dog receives lots of attention. I treat every pet like they're my own, so your pet’s routine becomes my routine. I follow feeding schedules, walking habits, and comfort preferences exactly as you describe. I will send regular updates with photos and notes so you feel connected and reassured.
About: I have been dog sitting or walking for the last seven years. Also, I worked for a dog daycare for about 2 years. I'm experienced in giving medication and getting stubborn dogs to eat their food. I'm comfortable walking any size or breed of dog. I will be available through the summer and possibly during the school year. The daily or weekly care depends on how many pets I'm caring for at a time. Between the end of August to the beginning of May, I can sit on the weekends. I do require a meeting with owners and the dogs before I dog sit. I'm comfortable to come to my clients home to care for them. If that is taking for a walk or just spending some time with them. I have two friendly beagles that love anyone and a fenced in back yard. I do have a crate of it is need.

A flexible remote worker who is available for dog walking, feeding, companionship, and house sitting. Comfortable with staying at your residence for extended periods of time. Caring for your pets in your home involves tailored attention. Whether it's regular walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I ensure their well-being and happiness.

“Ashley has become the friend that Blueberry and Dunkin most look forward to seeing every week. Both somewhat skittish, the dogs usually take a little while to warm up to new people. They immediately took to Ashley, though, and enjoy their time with her. This is evident in the pictures Ashley takes during her visits. And, the photos are fantastic! We can tell she's a professional photographer! This has provided us, the parents of Blueberry and Dunkin, great peace of mind. We are confident the dogs are well cared for when we're at work and receiving the attention they need. Ashley is very easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. We're lucky to have found her. Blueberry and Dunkin's lives are so much better because Ashley is in them!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Batavia
Cristal is wonderful with our cats and having her drop by while we’re away gives us good peace of mind just knowing that we don’t have to worry. She is very caring, kind and sweet towards the cats and always sends pictures of them which gives us extra reassurance that they are okay.
Emma was amazing and took such great care of our cats while we were out of town! I’m SO happy i found her as we recently moved to the area. She was very friendly, communicative, and followed instructions. Emma gave us the confidence and reassurance knowing our boys were in best hands. We will book with Emma again!
Elena was fantastic caring for my hybrid savannah cat while I was away. I recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional pet lover. Elena communicates effectively too, which isn’t a common characteristic. I was very comfortable having her visit my cat at our home. And I could tell my cat really enjoyed her company.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Batavia stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
