About: I've always loved dogs and cats and felt very passionate about them. I have two years animal shelter experience taking care of dogs and cats. This included feeding several different types of foods and diets to pets, ensuring pets' safety, cleaning cages and kennels, cleaning litter boxes, and taking out dogs into the yard. I am available most days and times every week to care for your pets. I offer mostly drop ins and I do have exceptions like I will be going on vacation this month so just message me within one day to request a booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I pay attention to dogs and cats body languages to ensure their safety needs and emotional needs are met. I let pets come to me first so that they can feel comfortable and safe around me. I treat every pet with respect and if they do not want to say hi yet, that is totally fine with me I will feed them and clean litterbox, etc and they will warm up to me eventually. I watch puppies and young dogs very carefully so that they do not get into trouble and I always make sure the floors are puppy/dog proofed.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats ranging from puppies to seniors. owning two cats myself and have owned a dog previously i am fun loving and charismatic to the needs of the individual I work 7-3 but am able to go for walks before and after, during the evening, and anytime on weekends. i am willing to take a range of walks from short quick walks to long walks. I care for my pets in my home by cleaning up after the litter box and walks, feeding regularly, and providing lots of love and pats.
About: I have experience working with dogs and cats through pet sitting and hospital experience. I have owned dogs for the past 16 years, chinchillas for the past 5 years, and hedgehogs for the past 7 years. I am able to detect symptoms and abnormalities that may require medical attention. I enjoy bringing my pets to a variety of places such as state parks, pet stores and public pet events. I am available most weekdays and weekends. I do not mind staying over for overnight care. My time is pretty flexible for now and I am able to drive to locations within an hour radius using my own car. I have a finished basement that would be used for the pets I care for. It has a bathroom with a hand held shower for easy bathing. I have a crate available for use for dogs under 30 pounds. The basement also has direct access to the back yard for easier potty times. The temperature in the basement is cool during the summer. In the winter the temperature would be adjusted using an electric fire place. Dogs would get enrichment through daily walks, puzzle toys and trick training. Cats would have access to the whole basement to free roam but will not have access to outdoors.
About: I live and travel the country with my 6 year old 12 lb jack Russell Milo in my custom built van. I am in Massachusetts for 6 months from April to October then I head out to Arizona for the winter. I am a calm and assertive pack leader and practice the teachings of Cesar Millan the dog whisperer. I am retired so I can accommodate any schedule. Living in my van allows me the ability to be parked in your driveway with no need to use your house except to care for your furbaby. Your furbaby is most comfortable in their own home. Being a mobile dog sitter allows me to park in your driveway and have everything I need. It's is a perfect way for you to provide excellent care for your furbaby.

“Liz did a wonderful job with our lab Chloe. They bonded so well at their meet and greet. She was timely with all her visits, and also sent lots of photos of all the fun they were having together while we were gone. She even found all the tennis balls underneath the sofa and TV stand, then fish them out with a broom handle for Chloe! We will definitely be using her again.”

“Diana took great care of our cats for just over a week and with one of our cats having relatively recently been in the hospital. Two of our three cats are shy around folks they don't know but clearly they warmed up to playing and being around Diana! Our cats were in good spirits and looked happy upon our return.”

He was very affectionate with her from the photos she sent us and made me feel very comfortable that he was in her care. She clearly loves animals and was very kind and loving to Tig. She was punctual too and tidied up his eating area and box when needed. I would 100% recommend Elizabeth for your pet care! Thanks!”

Excellent experience with Brian! He took his time to ensure Ellie got the attention, love and care she needs. He also allowed time for her to get out her "zoomies". And he actually spent longer than the paid time with her playing and walking her. Overall, I would absolutely work with Brian again. 10/10
Svitlana went above and beyond in caring for our elderly dog and elderly cat in two visits coving dinner and a 2nd visit taking the dog out in the rain, then helping the cat eat more, as he only eats a little at a time. She was a pleasure to meet at the meet & great and a please to work with around this day of two visits.

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 Brockton 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.

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.
