“Cindy has come and puppy sat our 5 month old Beagle in our home for 2 days so far while my husband and I were at work. We were nervous as this is our first dog and first time using Rover. Cindy put us at such ease! She was GREAT with our boy and sent us updates during the day with pictures. We will definitely be using her more.”
“Susan was amazing! She took time to meet with me and my dog Bella. During this visit, Bella sat on the couch with Susan and laid her head in Susan's lap and went to sleep. While I was away, Susan sent me pictures so I could see Bella was doing ok. I definitely want Susan to stay with Bella again!”
“Amanda went above and beyond my expectations. This was our first booking and she is definitely my new “ favorite go to” pet sitter !! She continuously sent me updates and photos of Ricky my Chihuahua and it gave me great comfort. Amanda did many extra things to help take care of my homw while I was away - I can’t say enough of how fantastic she is!!!”
“Jessica was very professional, mature, and thorough with updates. She made my dogs comfortable, while being very patient with them. She gave several daily reports and responded to messages quickly.”
“Jayne was absolutely amazing! She watched our two girls at our house for 4 days. She kept me in the loop, called me every day, sent me pictures throughout each day and even gave the girls a bath! She walked them, played with them, practiced their tricks, and definitely cuddled them! I will absolutely use her service again. I recommend her 100% and i’m a tough judge! Thanks again Jayne!”
“Linque was so good with our two dogs, and kept us up to date with lots of pictures and updates. I can’t imagine us having picked a better pet sitter for our first experience with Rover. You definitely won’t go wrong picking Linque for your pet sitting needs.”
“Ken is amazing!! He took great care of Dixie (and my home) while I was away, and will definitely book him again!!! He's greatly professional and his love of dogs shines through!”
“Shelby was the absolute best while watching our two, incredibly-spoiled pups for a getaway weekend with family. She provided regular updates as well as photos/videos, and we'd be lucky to have her stay over at our house with the pups again. 10/10 would entrust her with our home and fur-family.”

I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, and I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra patience, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs. Especially with my two that I have! I have taken pride in my experience to take the best care for them in any way! Easy; it’s my life lol. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I make time for feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure pets stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I am organized, reliable, and able to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.
“5 stars! Hannah is our go-to sitter and always takes great care of our pets and home. Excellent communication, regular updates, and everything was in great shape when we got back. We never worry when Hannah is staying with Dakota and Watson. Highly recommend!”
“Jessica was amazing with my dogs. They were well take care of and she took the time to play with them and give them love and attention. I will definitely ask her to watch them again if I need a sitter and I highly recommend her”

About: Hi! I offer dependable drop-in visits for dogs and cats. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. My day starts with energizing walks or play sessions to keep them active and engaged. Throughout the day, I make time for feeding, grooming, and plenty of attention to ensure they feel loved and comfortable. By balancing my day around their schedule, I ensure each pet receives consistent and dedicated care I follow the pet's usual routines, including feeding times, exercise, and any special care instructions provided by the owner. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, companionship, and rest in familiar or comforting spaces. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a clean, stress-free atmosphere where pets feel secure and well-cared for.
About: When I was a child, I dreamed of becoming a vet. Nature, animals, and being active have always been a part of my life. I became a Fitness Professional who believes health & well-being are fundamental for humans AND for animals. I'm grateful for all LIFE and that shows in the way I embrace energy , the way I love to run & play myself, and that's what I provide to those that are under my care!! Security is a priority, water, food, a warm & comfortable shelter, a place to expand energy & many ways to stimulate interests are all I have to offer to your dog. I'm also patient - which I think is important because we all need time to learn & be understood.
About: Hello and welcome! I'm Heather, but I go by Xel (pronounced •zel•) and it's nice to meet you! I have owned more dogs and cats (as well as a ferret, lizard, fish, and a spider and have handled various others) than I can count through the years (I'm almost 40 and we've had a LOT!). Everything from domestic shorthair to Bengal-mix and Schnauzers to German Shepherds. I have house-sat for both friends and family for many years (short and extended!) and I have administered medicine in pill form, as well as inhaler (would be willing to learn injections if necessary). Our oldest cats have lived 18 years, and I currently own four cats (all rescues, aged 2 to 16). Our oldest dogs have lived 15+ I believe, but it's been a long time since owning one (my parents are disabled). I have done a bit of training with dogs and cats alike, but I am not a professional. I'm HIGHLY flexible, so if you would like to know more, feel free to reach out! If you've made it this far, have a lovely day! ♡ I'm available at a moments' notice the majority of the time! This includes overnights, emergencies, and short/extended stays. As long as there is clear communication, I'll do my best to aid in any situation, even if it's within the hour! ♡ For our own cats, our oldest, Max, has to be fed separately from the others, as he needs a higher calorie diet than the others. All of the cats are treated with flea medication and I clean multiple litter boxes several times a week. For friends and family, I have had feeding schedules for both dogs and cats, ranging from custom mixed and weighed portions to simply making sure the auto-feeders/fountains are kept clean and filled. My best friend's dog gets playtime and outside time (he has a runner and a ton of toys to play fetch with). My Aunt's cat would need constant watch, as he needed an inhaler if he walked too far or his anxiety flared. I'm also open to doing light chores, so feel free to reach out with any and all questions! Thank you for your consideration! ♡
About: I’m vigilant and will keep your pup safe on a walk, will make sure they have time to do their business, and allow them to stop and smell the roses along the way. I work from home and love dogs so this is perfect opportunity for me to earn a little extra money and give a little extra love. I am used to watching dogs that need constant supervision. My husky required constant supervision during his puppy months and is now potty trained and the best boy.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkdale
I wish they had more than 5 stars! Susan was so professional as she stayed to care for our 2 rat terriers. When we were gone she sent pictures of our pups. We felt so secure that she was caring for our pups the whole time. I would whole hardly recommend her for sitting for your pet. We certainly hire her again in the future!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Clarkdale walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Clarkdale maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Clarkdale 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
