About: I had big dogs growing up who had the energy of a puppy, so bring it on! I am active, so if your dog requires a little running or a heavier workout I can aid with their exercise or basic training like sit, stay, lay down, and shake! I am working from home with no set schedule. I make my own hours so I am flexible when you need me! I already have an animal and can understand the need for a routine. I love dogs and cats that are eager to play. I think a relationship can be built but a gentle approach is typically required at first. My cat is indoor/outdoor, so he can stay outside if needed.
About: I love taking hikes with my dog and I am very good at handling any type of dog! Overall, I connect with every pet I meet to make sure they stay well loved while their owner is away Im currently working a part-time job with flexible hours so pet care fits in lovely!! My schedule allows for me to be available when needed! I can easily crate a pet, help them stay in the right areas of the yard or home, and make sure they are surrounding with a friendly and calm environment
About: I'm a stay-at-home mom so I'm available to shower your pup with affection and attention. We have a great backyard as well as a great neighborhood to take walks. I can't wait to meet your dog! I am currently a stay-at-home mom so have great flexibility in caring for your pooch. If I am not home, one of my older kids will be so your pup is never lonely. I have a fenced in backyard and a lovely neighborhood to walk in. I do have one small dog who is incredibly friendly and is looking forward to having a buddy.
“This was my first drop in visit from Tahler and she did fantastic. She sent me tons of pictures and all of my fur babies looked happy. I really appreciated the updates.”
“Mary Beth was great! She did drop in visits with Winnie this summer while I was at work and was a huge help. She’s very trustworthy, communicates well, and I always knew Winnie was in good hands. Thanks Mary Beth!”
“Lisa was incredible while taking care of our Pup! She did an amazing job sending updates and lots of pictures of his days. We are so great full for the amazing care she provided while we were away!”
“This was our second time booking with Kyla and we were beyond happy and impressed! She took exceptional care of our older cat while we were away and gave us such peace of mind to enjoy our trip! She was responsible, warm, and above and beyond kind to our fur baby! We came back to such a happy cat and can’t wait to book with Kyla again!”
“Kimberly is amazing! Had her booked in advanced for tomorrow but I needed her help to swing by today for a check in as I was going to be home late & she was readily available. Quick responses. Very flexible & easy to talk to & understood our boy. Glad I found her & was recommended her to help us out :)”
About: I am a responsible, loving, patient and caring person I have flexible schedule, I have a dog and I know that fresh air and excercise is essential for a healthy dog without stress. I love dogs and I'll be more than happy to help taking care of your dog. I am a Vetenerian from Guatemala, I' am working for my licence so I can work as a Veterinarian in a clinic but I have to work hard and save money to achieve it. I cannot wait to take care of your dog :) If the dog is on a treatment or he needs oral or injected medication I can help with that, I can administrate the medication. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. We are in a house with fenced yard.
About: I love animals and have an end goal of becoming a vet in life, so seeing different pets/ breeds of pets is huge to me. I’ve been told i’m super good with pets and super reliable. I have been dog sitting for 4 years and look forward to every job I can get! I’m currently in school and club volleyball, but can assure you I will give your pets as much time as I can. I have a job, but only work Fridays and Saturday at night. I love going outside and playing with your pets, I also love taking them for walks and giving them a bunch of attention. I love learning every pets personality!
About: I've been taking care of dogs for many years and have seen all kinds of breeds and sizes from neighbor's dogs to my own all are welcome! I'm available most weekends all day, and most weekdays mornings and evenings. I have reliable transportation. In addition, I'm very punctual and respectful to your home and pets. I will care for your pets in your home /in your neighborhood. My car is small so I can fit into most parking spaces and can transport small animals in my car if you don't have a dog park nearby.
“Naomi saved my day!! My request was super last minute and she responded so quick and took care of my babies. Also she sent me pictures of all four of my pets which made me feel relieved because this was my first time using Rover. Definitely will contact her again when I need a pet sitter!”
“Izzy was so nice and took my booking at the last minute which I so appreciated! My mom met with her since I left before she could meet up, and also had nothing but good things to say. She came around the same time every day, took pictures of my cat for me (there is separation anxiety but it's not my cat), and gave her some pets as well as medication. My cat is usually very nervous and doesn't come out for just anyone, but she came out for Izzy. She also checked on my fish when we needed to determine if the water was low. Thank you, Izzy! I'll be booking again!”
“Rebecca was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was clear and precise. He punctuality was awesome. She even altered her visit time to better facilitate our fur babies. Plenty of pictures and awesomely detailed updates. I cannot recommend her enough for your pet sitter needs.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, helping care for my family’s Border Collies, Kooikerhondjes, and Labradors. I’ve been walking, feeding, and playing with dogs since I was little, and I love their energy and how easy it is to connect with them. My sister is a dog breeder, so I’m used to being around all kinds of pups! I mostly offer dog walking and would love to keep your dog active, happy, and having fun outdoors. I’m a college student with classes during the day on weekdays, but I’m flexible and happy to work around my schedule. I’m usually available for morning and evening walks, and weekends work great too! I always make sure each dog gets plenty of time and attention. I always make sure dogs are safe and comfortable on our walks. There are some great nearby nature trails and parks where I can take them for exercise and fresh air, or I’m happy to walk them along their usual routes if the owner prefers. I keep a close eye on every dog and make sure they’re happy, secure, and having fun!
“Millie does a great job taking care of our 3 senior pups. From medicine to accident clean-up, she takes care of it. It gives me peace of mind to go out of town with her watching the dogs.”

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 Black Forest 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 Black Forest 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 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 Black Forest with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
