“I already knew that Svetlana was great from previous interactions, but she really went above and beyond in caring for my two dogs this week. Mid-visit, a pair of aggressive dogs from my neighbor's yard broke into the fence and Svetlana was able to keep my boys safe and handle the situation while I was at work. I am certain that nobody can care more for your pets than Svetlana!”

About: I’m an experienced, animal-loving pet caregiver with nearly a decade of professional experience and a lifetime spent around dogs and cats. Since 2017, I’ve provided professional boarding, dog walking, basic grooming, and daily pet care for animals with a wide range of ages, personalities, and energy levels. I have two working-breed dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for high-energy pups who need plenty of exercise, structure, playtime, and attention. I also have a mini poodle, so I understand that every dog has a different pace and personality—from active, adventure-loving dogs to smaller or more relaxed companions. Because I work from home, your pet will have lots of supervision and companionship throughout the day and will not be left alone for more than about an hour at a time. I provide frequent potty breaks, play sessions, enrichment, snack times when appropriate, and lots of affection. I’m happy to care for pets of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets who may need a little extra patience. I treat every pet like family and can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work from home full time, but don’t fret. All doggos in this house get lengthy breaks from being inside by going on walks and play sessions throughout the day! I have 3 pups of my own that love to play… or sleep… or just sit outside. Whatever your dog wants to do they’re pretty easy going.

“Exceptional Pet Sitter! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amanda was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was incredibly sweet, helpful, and highly responsive. Her communication was perfect throughout the entire stay—she kept me constantly updated, asked great questions to ensure Winnie had everything she needed, and went above and beyond by asking if there was anything else she could help with around the house. The photos she sent on a regular basis brought so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you, Amanda! Highly recommended!”

We had a great experience with Andrea! We have medically complex cats who need a combination of pills, injections, and supplements, and she did a wonderful job making sure everyone received everything they needed. She was very attentive and clearly took their care seriously, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our travel plans also changed unexpectedly when our flight was canceled, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding when we had to adjust the booking at the last minute. We really appreciated both the quality of care she gave our cats and how easy she was to work with, and we would absolutely book with her again.

Kayla took excellent care of our feline princess Miss Pepper. She also communicated with me after each visit with heart warming pictures and description of my cat activity like how much she ate, where she headed to take her nap. I would recommend Kayla to my friends for her wonderful help with pets.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Chancellor

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.
