“Jenna was wonderful with my kitties! She made sure that she visited them every day even when she had to come on her lunch break from work! The report cards were very detailed with pictures and info on everything she did during the visit. I’m always nervous, leaving them, and I am so glad that I could count on her to take care of them and to give me some peace of mind while I was gone 😊”

About: As far as experience goes there isn’t a time in my life I remember that I wasn’t caring for an animal. From reptiles, to rodents, to cats and dogs, I’ve had them all. From a young age I was taught responsibility and discipline when it came to caring for tiny creatures. Additionally for over two years I volunteered weekly at a local animal shelter. During this time I gained knowledge as to how animals interacted with one another, how to properly administer medication, warning signs to look out for, what to do in emergencies, and deeply studied animal behavior. To add on to that I am currently employed at a doggie daycare. During my time here not only have I gotten to widen my horizons when it came to taking care of animals but I have learned hands on how to bandage a wound, what to do in animal confrontations as well as how to handle the unexpected such as sickness or seizures. Additionally over the last 3 years I have volunteered at different animal welfare programs across the globe. These include Portugal, Puerto Rico, Tanzania and soon Hawaii. During this time I have not only seen hands on other cultures way of taking care of animals but also gained knowledge as to how to better the animal care I provide to clients. As I previously stated I currently am employed at a doggie daycare. Additionally I work at a bakery as well. My schedule changes weekly so it can be hard to give an exact time frame when booking. Typically I work up to 8 hour shifts. I typically prefer to stay in clients homes to keep their pets safe and happy in their own environment. I will be there in the morning before work, and will immediately come back when I get off as well as being there at night. I try to spend as much time as possible with the pets while you are away I typically only offer staying in the clients home and I am comfortable crating animals while gone. I always keep things like medications safely out of reach and secured. Additionally upon booking I typically ask about any health notes, allergies, or special needs as well as a good contact number for your vet in case of emergency.
About: I provide attentive, compassionate, and reliable care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I specialize in creating a safe, comfortable environment—whether in your home or mine—ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, affection, and individualized attention. With strong communication skills and a genuine love for animals, I keep pet parents updated and at ease throughout every stay. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or special care routines, I’m committed to treating every dog like family. I have a flexible work schedule so I’m able to provide breaks and attention as needed throughout the day. I am able to attend to your pet as needed. I have a large back yard that the dogs can play in. I also have the Oak Leaf trail next to my house we can go on frequent walks!
“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”
About: Hi there! I am an animal lover who recently relocated to Wisconsin from Texas, with a lifelong background caring for dogs. In my free time, I enjoy volunteering at Rescue Gang and the Wisconsin Humane Society. I Enjoy All Personalities: I am highly experienced in managing hyperactive dogs, energetic puppies, aggressive pullers, stubborn behaviors, and dog reactivity. I am comfortable working with senior dogs, managing allergies, and administering medications as needed. I am currently working to expand my knowledge by pursuing additional certifications to better serve you and your fur baby and provide the best possible care. I work full time in Glendale. I am currently available for bookings most nights and weekends, outside of my work hours of 7:00 am – 4:00 pm I am CPR and First Aid certified for pets. I carry a specialized pet first-aid kit, extra leashes, poop bags, water, bowls, and beef liver treats at all times. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I proactively avoid negative interactions and stay clear of off-leash dogs to ensure your pet remains comfortable and secure. As the weather warms up, I prioritize your pet's health by limiting outdoor exposure and focusing on shorter, cooler walks during peak heat hours.
About: From working/volunteering at shelters to pet sitting for friends and family, I have 10+ years of experience caring for furry friends of all ages, personalities, and sizes! Most all of my pet care has been limited to cats and dogs, but I am willing to work with small critters, birds and reptiles with the right care instructions/tutorials. I am not typically squeamish, so I am open to handling clean up and medication - please message me for specifics. As a dog mom myself, I understand that each pet requires different levels of care and attention, and am willing to meet them where they’re at! However, I do not offer training services and might not be the most compatible caretaker for pets that exhibit aggressive behaviors (I am open to discussing). Additionally, I am a full time graduate student, so care in the early morning and evenings will work best for my week day schedule. I will be available some holidays (i.e., Thanksgiving). My availability may also change from time to time, so please be sure to check my profile or message me. Choosing me means your pet will receive quality care, and that all the updates you receive will include cute pics! As a full time student, my weekday availability might mean limited check-ins, but your pet is always the priority! - Monday & Tuesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Wednesday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 7 PM - Thursday: 6:00 AM - 7:30 AM; after 5 PM - Friday: 6:00 AM - 8:00 AM; after 3:00 PM - Saturday & Sunday: Flexible! I will need a few hours in the morning and some afternoons to volunteer. For pet sitting, I can provide the following: - Feeding and hydration - Exercise and play - Maintenance and cleaning of pets environment (e.g., litter box, crate, etc.) - Medication administration - Light housekeeping (e.g., bringing mail in, watering plants, taking out trash, etc.) - Text/photo/video updates
“Jeremy was an amazing cat sitter! Both my cats were immediately comfortable and really grew to like Jeremy’s daily visits and play time. Super responsive and always sending lots of pics for me to check in on- it’s was such a relief to have them in Jeremy’s care. Highly recommend!!!”
“Bella took care of Lucina on very short notice, and kept her happy, fed, and entertained as best as a drop in visit could do. She would be my first choice if I ever need a cat sitter again and I'd recommend her to anyone!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Lake
Cheryl was so sweet with Sargie and took such great care of him! She followed all of our instructions carefully and even took him to the park, which we really appreciated. We felt very comfortable knowing Sargie was in good hands while we were away. We’re so thankful for her and will definitely book with Cheryl again! 🐾❤️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Christina is absolutely incredible! She took such loving and thoughtful care of my senior dog, Nick, and truly went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and safe. Nick has his fair share of quirks and little nuances that come with age, and Christina was so understanding, patient, and accommodating with every single one. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and tailors her care to each individual pup’s personality and needs. I felt completely at ease knowing Nick was in such compassionate hands!! He looked so happy and relaxed when I returned! I can’t recommend Christina enough for anyone looking for a kind, attentive, and trustworthy sitter who treats your dog like her own. 💛

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.
