I can take care of any aged animal (cat and dog) as well as help potty train, puppy train, etc. I recently have raised my fiancé and I’s black lab and black cat! Outside of medical school I volunteer at the local humane society. Feel free to contact me if needed ◡̈ I am a current medical student who has class multiple days a week and it will periodically change.. I can be available depending on school times.

Of course, when taking care of your loved pet, I will always follow your schedule and rules. ♡
“My fur babies loved Valerie. I knew they were in good hands with her. She sent us lots of pictures and some videos of their playtime. It warmed my heart to see my boys happy. She even fixed our doggie flaps that came loose so our boys would not be scared to go outside. She hand fed my puppy which I know he loves. I appreciate you taking care of my boys. I would definitely book her again.”
“Morgan was fantastic! She took great care of our dog while we were out of town and kept us updated, which gave us real peace of mind. Our pup was happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention. We highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: My name is Truman but I go by Max! I’ve cared for all kinds of animals for years — from dogs and cats to bearded dragons and small pets. I adjust my approach based on the animal’s personality; not every pet wants constant attention, and I’m good at reading what they need. I don’t board dogs or cats at my home, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. Clear communication and reliability are my top priorities. I work at Publix, so my schedule can vary week to week. I’m flexible and happy to coordinate drop-ins, walks, or overnights around your routine—with clear communication and quick confirmations. I take a calm, thoughtful approach with every pet. When meeting a new animal, I get down to their level and let them come to me — it helps them feel safe and in control. I respect each owner’s preferences for communication and routines, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own environment. You’ll always get reliable updates without being overwhelmed.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Byron 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 Byron 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 Byron with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
