“Went away for a long weekend and knowing we had Mel stopping in to check on kitties was a huge relief! We appreciated the daily pictures of our babies and came hope to 3 happy cats! Would be happy to have Mel care for cats anytime.”
“Samantha is a very good communicator and we got along great. She understood all of the directions we left for her and asked questions when needed. She is always on time and I had full confidence that our cats were well taken care of while we were gone.”

About: Hi! I have enjoyed the company of pets since I was a young girl. As an adult, I have had both adopted dogs and cats in my home for more than two decades. I have trained puppies and cared for older dogs/cats in pain towards the end of life. My beloved Sandy girl passed 4 years ago at 13 1/2 years old, but I have kept her profile on this app. Due to traveling/work I have not had an animal for the past four years. I have really missed the unconditionally loving company! I work part-time, so I am relatively flexible to walk and care for your sweet dog or cat. I’m looking for a friendly, calm, well trained pup, as well as sweet, kindly natured cats. So I’m offering to walk your dog, and care for your cat, since I am really missing a pet in my life. I try to get my pet-fix in by visiting the pet stores on adoption days, and say hi to dogs I meet on my walks in the neighborhood, but it doesn’t quite make up for it. Having used this Rover app for dog sitting of my own dog some years ago, I found this would be a good way to connect with you and your lovely pet. My specialty is walking your dog with 100% attention, without texting or being on my phone simultaneously. I’ve always found this to be so important, to actually spend quality time together during the walks. I love cats as well, and I would be very happy to come and care for your kitty/kitties. Furthermore, I might be able to pet sit at your home when you are gone.
About: I have most of my experience caring for dogs, but I also have experience watching cats as well. Along with caring for my own dog, I currently help look after three other family dogs that I live with. My responsibilities include feeding, daily walks and hikes, vet visits, administering post-surgery care, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Most of my pet sitting experience has been through friends and family. I’ve stayed overnight at clients’ homes to care for two adult dogs at a time, especially when owners wanted someone present with the dogs as much as possible. I did this over a couple of summers for stays lasting around 1–2 weeks at a time. I also regularly help care for a family member’s mini poodle while they travel, either by bringing her to my home or stopping by for potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m very passionate about caring for animals and always try to treat every pet the same way I would treat my own. My goal is to make pets feel loved, well cared for, comfortable, and active while their owners are away. I currently work for a high school, which gives me much more flexibility during the summer months. I will also be working another part-time job that has a flexible schedule, so I am available most days of the week for pet care. Because of my flexible availability, I’m able to spend quality time with pets throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I always try to make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and attended to while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my own home, safety and comfort are very important to me. While I’m at work, my dogs stay in a secure fenced backyard with multiple shaded areas, a small kiddie pool with water for drinking or cooling off, and toys to keep them entertained. They are usually outside during the day when no one is home, but once I or another family member returns, they are allowed back inside. On weekends, when I’m home more often, they are free to go in and out of the house as they please. They sleep indoors on their own beds at night, although I don’t mind pets sleeping near me if that is what they are comfortable with. When caring for other people’s pets, I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and routines as closely as possible. If pets are normally kept indoors during the day, I would stop by for potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. If a dog does not have a fenced yard or cannot safely be off leash, I would make sure they stay leashed and supervised at all times. I’m also happy to take pets on walks or transport them elsewhere if needed for exercise or bathroom breaks. If an owner is comfortable with their dog staying at my home, I can provide a safe, secure, and caring environment for them there as well.
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have 4 years of experience working as a veterinary technician, and 10+ years taking care of animals which has given me hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs and cats and taught me how to understand their individual personalities and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.🐾❤️ I will always try to be very flexible with my hours and whatever is easiest for your schedule, my goal is to do this full time. I do have a fenced in yard and two fur baby’s that would keep your animals company while you are away. I am willing for your animals to either stay at my house or to stay at your house or check in. Whatever you prefer.
About: I have basic knowledge when it comes to many dog breeds, including all animal behavior in order to make pets feel comfortable in my presence. I am currently going to school but many of my classes are online, so I have plenty of free time during the weekdays and weekends. I am able to give all of my time to watching the pets so that nothing goes wrong, and I am able to tend to their needs whatever it might be.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 274 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clarkdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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 use the 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.
