“Terri was wonderful with my two cats. She sent photos and I could tell they were in good hands. Very responsive and excellent communication. Would definitely recommend.”

About: Hi there! My name is Liliana Meleshkewich and I have had experience with all kinds of pets starting from when I was really young. Currently I own a dog, cat, lizard, and snake so I don’t shy away from any kind of animal. I have dog sat in the past and have cared for many different breeds of dogs. I have always loved spending time with dogs and any other kind of animal. I also am very active and would love to go on a run or hike with your dog. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your dog and to help out when needed! Thank you so much for considering me and please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have! I’m currently working Tuesdays-Saturdays starting at 1, so morning care I have available! Mondays and Sundays are free. My schedule is flexible and I’m able to adjust when needed if discussed beforehand. I have the ability to travel to you when needed and can easily crate your dog if needed as well. I am experienced in leashing dogs as well.

About: Hi, I'm Alessandra! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I cared for everything from turtles, a bird, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits to two Golden Retrievers. Today, I have a cat and Golden Retriever of my own, so I know firsthand just how much our pets are a part of the family. As a Rover-user myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust to care for your pet. I also know that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m always happy to tailor my care accordingly. I work remotely and am based in Newtown, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule for house sitting and/or walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m reliable, communicative, and mindful of the little things that make a big difference - following your routine and care instructions, respecting your home, keeping your pet comfortable & happy, and sending plenty of updates along the way. My goal is to make sure you feel just as comfortable with me caring for your pet as I’d want to feel with someone caring for mine! I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) — let’s chat and see if it’s a good fit! — Alessandra 🐾 I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins. I also offer house sitting, and since I can work from almost anywhere, I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pets and keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away. My schedule varies week to week, but I’ll always communicate my availability upfront and make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs before accepting a booking. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so my priority is making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable. I’ll take the time to understand their personality, routine, and needs, while paying attention to the little things (securing gates & doors, keeping items out of reach, etc.) that keep them safe and happy. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands and getting plenty of love and attention!
About: Throughout my entire life I have grown up with dogs and the longest the household went without one was about 3 months. I also have been pet-sitting since I was about 10 years old - from fish to dogs I've done it all. I have done extended house-sitting and also just stopped by for a half hour to feed and spend time with someone's dog. I am easy to get ahold of through text. I am responsible, reliable, and most importantly, I love animals, especially dogs, and want them to feel happy and comfortable when in my care. I like pets to feel completely at ease around me. I treat them as I would my own pets and make sure to give them all the love, as well as space, that they need to be happy and cared for. Pet sitting is a part time career for me. I prioritize it and make sure I am available and have a flexible schedule. I am always easy to get ahold of and have great communication skills to make sure we are on the same page when it comes to caring for your pet. I will always send pictures when pet sitting too so that you feel more at ease and know I’m with your pet and can see how they’re doing! I make sure to be extra safe when at your house or on walks. I make sure I’m aware of how the pet is doing and the surrounding environment. I follow directions and rules to make sure the pet is getting consistent care. I also leave a house in the same condition I found it when house-sitting.
About: I have several years of experience with all types of animals. I have spent a lot of timing researching and helping animals who need it, and I have even taken classes on animal care and behavior. I love animals and they always have, and will be, a big part of my life. My schedule does vary, but it is flexible. Monday evenings, tuesdays, Friday evenings, Saturday, and Sunday especially, I am generally available. I will always try to fit your pets in! Although I can not offer boarding, your pets safety and happiness is of the upmost importance. I will work based off of what your pet is expressing to me and what you tell me, combined with my own experience to keep everybody safe and happy!

About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my life since I was a baby. I have experience with many type of dog breeds from Shepherds, Dobermans, Keeshonds, Malamutes, Golden Retrievers, Labrador retrievers, beagles, etc. Dogs have always been part of my family and my everyday life. I am a mommy to two Keeshonds, Cuda and Chili, who are twins - fraternal twins. They will be 8 years old in November. Having dogs all my life has taught me that every dog has their own personality, needs, routines, quirks, and a way of communicating. I pay attention to those little things. When your dog is in my care, I want you to feel the same thing I feel when someone cares for mine: "My dog is safe. My dog is loved. My dog is in good hands." I have hands-on experience with everyday responsibilities that come with caring for dogs, including giving oral medication. I give both my dogs medication. I understand medication isn't something to casually overlook-it requires attention, consistency, and responsibility. I also have experience taking care of dogs who have anxiety (as my Cuda has that) and senior dogs (that need extra attention) I don't want to simply "walk your dog." I want to get to know your dog: their personality, routines, what makes them comfortable, what makes them nervous, their favorite things, and most importantly, what makes them feel safe. I believe pets deserve love, care, patience, kindness, and individual attention - whether I'm taking them for a walk, spending time with them in your home, or simply making sure they're comfortable while you're away. My promise to you: I will care for your furbaby with the same attention, patience, and love I would want someone to give my two furbabies- Cuda and Chili. Because to me, your dog isn't "just a dog." They're someone's best friend. They're someone's family. And while they're in my care, I'll treat them that way always. I am currently working part-time so I have plently of time to take care of your pets. I am available Monday - Friday from 4:15 to 8 pm. Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 3 pm. Individual attention, exercise and plenty of affection. Potty breaks, meals, fresh water, medication and companionship. Keeping your pet comfortable in their environment they are familiar with. Tell me your preferences. What do you feel comfortable with?
“Annmarie was incredibly nice and communicative while she took care of my cats. This was so appreciated while I was out of state! I felt relieved to know my pets were being so well cared for.”

I adjust my care to fit their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I am usually pretty free during the week, but send me a message and we can find a time that works for both of us! I keep each pet’s care as consistent as possible with their normal routine.

“Carlie is FABULOUS! She had quality visits with my two dogs, and provided thorough, insightful honest feedback about how each was doing. One is an elder requiring heart meds. He showed some signs of stress on one of her visits which she described to a T. She had the good judgement to give him a pee and poo break but forego the walk with him. Next visit he was great. Based upon her feedback I felt completely confident that they were in the best possible hands. Carlie is a vet tech, and this added skill/ experience was obvious in how she handled things. She is a woman of kind and gentle temperament and great skill. I could not recommend her more highly. THANK YOU CARLIE!”

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the start, communication was excellent, and I received regular updates and photos that showed my dog was having a great time. When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to find someone this trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking again!

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
