“Aniah was amazing! Our dogs took to her very well. Even our senior pup who is very slow to warm up was giving her kisses on their first meet. You can see that Aniah has a passion for what she does. She was so patient and sweet. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Rhonda has been an amazing find for our babies. She is very reliable and has been more than willing to help us out on short notice. She did an amazing job with our dogs and took the time to send pictures throughout the stay to put us more at ease. Thank you so much for what you do!”
“Aaron was amazing! We were so worried about Ike , he's a severely abused rescue who has been boarded in the past and never liked it. 1st time home alone with stop in visits throughout the day, and Ike's in love! Lots of love and affection was giving along with treats. We loved the daily pics from each visit. Highly recommend Aaron, great with all breeds as he was also watching our other two. They loved Aaron and we will definitely be reaching out again.”
About: I am deeply passionate about the well being of every animal and take the time to build trust with each pet I care for. The personalized loving care I provide truly sets me apart. My clients- family, friends, coworkers and neighbors - trust me to walk, feed, administer medications and care for their pets at every age, from playful puppies to beloved senior. I work from home. So I have a flexible schedule. I can be available to feed, water, walk your dog or check in on them. If you have cats can check in on them. Feed, water and play with them. While caring for your fur baby I'll give you a daily report telling you what your fur baby's day was like. I will play with, exercise and love on your fur baby. I will follow all your instructions and will notify you if I notice anything concerning.
“Sarah is an amazing sitter. She went above and beyond making our anxious dog feel comfortable. We won’t hesitate to book Sarah again for our future sitter needs. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.
“Jennifer was so attentive to our puppy and even met with us beforehand to make me feel more at ease as a new pet mom. She also sent great updates and pictures, which made me so happy. I recommend her 100% and will definitely be asking her to watch our pup again!”
“Jenn did such a fabulous job. She dropped in a few days before to meet my dogs which was amazing since my doodle doesn’t warm up easily to strangers. She updated me and sent photos during the entire process. My doodle ended up loving her! My mind was at ease knowing they were in such good hands! I highly recommend her! Thank you Jenn!”
About: I've been around animals since I was 10 years old. All types of breeds and sizes. Experienced with any temperaments. I've never met a dog that has not been a fan. I am a retired Army veteran that is looking for something to occupy my time. I am an advad animal lover. I am available any day and any time! I have a fenced in back yard in which I can be with them while outside. Dogs roam free through the home and can crate them if wanted by you.
“Ashlie is very friendly and reliable! Our pup enjoys having her around. We are happy we were able to find such a great sitter for our boy! We highly recommend Ashlie to our friends and family!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Nala and Coco. I really appreciate all of your help and support, especially when Coco got sick. Thank you for going above and beyond by taking her to the vet, bringing her back home safely, and giving me clear instructions on how to care for her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I’m truly grateful!”
“Nevaeh was a lifesaver for our family! We decided to take a last minute trip and I was having a hard time finding someone to watch our cat. I messaged Nevaeh and she answered me pretty much right away! She was very easy to communicate with and did an amazing job taking care of our cat. Would definitely work with her again in the future!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the dog drop-ins! Pedro was incredibly attentive and made sure Storm felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. I really appreciated the updates during/after each visit. The photos were a wonderful touch too; it was great seeing my dog happily playing and relaxing. Overall, the service was reliable, friendly, and truly thoughtful. I’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾💛”
About: With a deep passion for animal welfare, I have developed a lifelong affinity for dogs. My household has always included at least one dog, and I have gained extensive experience in caring for them throughout my adult life. My children, now adults, grew up in dog-friendly households and have continued this tradition with their own families. I strongly believe that a home is incomplete without the companionship of a four-legged friend. I am well-versed in handling various breeds and sizes of dogs. Your dog and I will enjoy exploring the neighborhood together, discovering new sights and smells. On occasion, we may visit our local Starbucks for a pup cup treat, with your prior approval. We may also take a stroll through the nearby park, weather permitting. I understand the importance of providing dogs with opportunities to experience new environments and sensations. My ultimate goal is to ensure that your dog remains comfortable and stress-free at all times. Please feel free to contact me to schedule a meet and greet. I am available seven days a week, 24 hours a day, to provide pet care services for your fur babies. On Sundays, I am available anytime after 12:30 p.m., following church services. My residence features a fenced yard, providing a secure environment for my five pets. I diligently supervise them, limiting their time alone to brief intervals. We participate in regular walks, adjusted according to weather conditions. I prioritize their comfort, avoiding walks in extreme temperatures and taking measures to protect them from the elements.
About: As a dedicated dog walker with two years of experience, I ensure your dog gets the exercise, safety, and outdoor stimulation they need. Beyond daily walks, I spent two years fostering kittens, which gave me deep experience managing strict care routines, observing subtle health and behavior cues, and providing gentle hands-on care. As the owner of a senior dog, I also understand firsthand the extra patience, slow-paced mobility support, and specialized attention older pups require. Whether your dog is an energetic walker needing a brisk workout or a senior companion needing gentle care, I treat every pet with the same love, safety, and dedication I give my own. Because I am not currently working, pet care is my primary focus each day. My open and highly flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate your pet’s exact routine, whether that means morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, specific mealtime schedules, or late-night check-ins. I have full availability throughout the week for requests and extended playtimes, and uninterrupted companionship, ensuring your pet gets undivided attention without being rushed. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar environment, routine, and sense of security. I follow your exact instructions for feeding, exercise, medication, and play, while also keeping your space tidy and secure. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I provide attentive supervision, fresh water, and plenty of love before leaving them happy and safe. In my home, safety, comfort, and a calm environment come first. As a pet owner myself to a senior dog and two cats, I ensure all animals are properly introduced, supervised, and given their own comfortable spaces to relax. Whether at your house or mine, I treat every pet with the same patience, dedication, and gentle care I give my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Birchwood
Aaron did great with our two dogs! Both boys loved seeing him the week we were out of town on vacation. He came over twice a day and sent picture updates of the boys! We didn’t even make it home from Florida before we booked again with him for our next trip away!
Drop-in visit was mainly for grooming since, due to poor vision, I'm unable to safely do. Clover loves Gabriela snd is very happy every time she is here, whether it be for Drop-in visits or dog walking. Gabriela is very good with Clover as well as my cat Bonnie. She is a college student however and you may need to be flexible with your schedule to accommodate her school schedule.
Our family absolutely loved Nicole and her girls , they took excellent care of my Gracie girl , kept her company and played with her which she absolutely enjoyed, asked her for picture updates and she has taken so many pictures. I would 100 percent book with her again she is very good at communicating and super trustworthy. Gracie loved them so much.
Samantha was just perfect for our dogs! Very thoughtful and caring. Her communications were clear and sweet and we looked forward to hearing from her daily while we traveled. We definitely felt like our pets were in excellent hands, and I would absolutely suggest her to people looking for pet care

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Birchwood 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.
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 Birchwood 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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Birchwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
