About: Hello there! I'm an enthusiastic pet lover with 10 years of professional pet care experience. I also have several years of veterinary experience and actively work at an emergency clinic! With a household full of playful cats and dogs, I know just what it takes to keep your furry pals happy and healthy while you're out. Let's make sure your pets have a paws-itively purr-fect time! I work at home, as well as a veterinary Clinic, so your pet will never be alone during their stay and will always have the care and affection they need ❤️ meaning I can bring them with me to work! ***Current off work, so I will be able to stay in home with your pet at all times! With my professional experience, clients in the past have given me keys to their homes, and have trusted me with not only their property but their fur babies as well. I have experience working with Reactive animals and handling difficult situations that may arise during walks or visits. I do have pets of my own, however, if your pet is not very keen on saying hi to other dogs & cats, that is okay! I have made adjustments to the house so that I am able to keep your pets and my own can be completely seperate.

About: More Than Just a Pet Sitter – I’m Your Pet’s Second Best Friend! 🐾 With experience in puppy training, senior pet care, and personalized attention, I go beyond basic pet sitting to ensure your furry family member feels loved, safe, and engaged. Whether it’s reinforcing good manners, administering medication, or giving extra cuddles to older pets, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. Because every pet deserves expert care with a personal touch I work as a marine geophysicist and hydrographic surveyor - fancy way of saying I map the oceans. My work often takes me to various parts of the world so I work on a Month On - Month Off rotation schedule. When I am home, I am home full time and always looking for things to do. If that kind of schedule works well for you I can't wait to chat! Provide walks, playtime, and any special needs. Maintain Routine. I would prefer they stay in their familiar environment, reducing stress. Daily updates to the owner.

Morgan was great. Her daily updates and notes took away all the stress and worry while I was away. I knew my girls were fine. I will definitely book her again for my next trip. ☺️

About: I have owned my own dogs that I have groomed myself and taken care of for years. When fostering dogs, I maintain their grooming and other health needs. My schedule is extremely flexible, as I work shift work as a youth care worker. I have a lot of time during the daytime to check in on, walk, and feed your dogs as needs require. I have a backyard that’s not fenced in with no other pets. I have a couch that we allow the animals to sit on, as well as my bed. Can crate your dogs if needed. Always walk dogs on leash.

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and have cared for animals throughout my life. I bring 15+ years of hands-on animal-care experience, including working in two veterinary clinics and teaching canine and equine first aid. I provide reliable, attentive and compassionate care and am happy to follow each pet's individual routine and needs. I have a flexible schedule and am generally available Sunday to Saturday with daytime availability for drop-in visits, dog walks and pet care. I am also open to occasional weekend and overnight bookings with advance notice. I enjoy staying active and spend time caring for my own animals, including my horses and cats. I can work with individual pet routines and am happy to provide regular updates to owners while they are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet's routine, personality and individual needs, and I carefully follow owner instructions for feeding, exercise, medications and other care. My experience working in two veterinary clinics, along with my Canine and Equine First Aid Instructor training, gives me confidence recognizing changes in an animal's health or behaviour and responding appropriately if a concern arises. Whether caring for pets in their own home or providing visits, I aim to keep their environment calm, familiar and stress-free. I will also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they are away.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

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.

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 Chester 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 do not have any disqualifying offences.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
