About: Hi, I’m Dawn! With years of pet care experience, I’m here to give your furry friends the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk or a cozy cuddle, I treat every pet like my own. I’ve worked with pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, ensuring they feel safe and happy. You can count on me for reliable, caring service and regular updates for your peace of mind! I’m a college student studying Nutrition and Dietetics while working an on campus job, this gives me plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m very flexible and will do my best to meet your needs! I have walked dogs of all sizes for many years! I am able to walk dogs as far as they can! You can also trust in my judgment and ability to care for your animals during visits while you’re not home!
“Skye did a fantastic job watching the pups. Gave updates with every visit. Our older girl can be a handful, but she warned up the Skye more quickly than anyone I've ever known.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager and now have a rescue pittie that I would give my life for. Every dog is a great dog and deserves endless amounts of love and attention... and treats of course! I work a full time 9-5 job but I am available for late night walks/check in and weekends. I am trying to focus on exercising more and would love some company on my daily walks. My pittie can only walk so much as he is getting a little older and can't handle long walks. How you would treat your dog, is how I would treat your dog. Your rules and guidelines are my rules and guidelines. I can crate your dog, let them roam free, I'll even tuck them into bed if that is what they like (I know my dog does!)
About: I've been taking care of dogs, cats, and basically any animal pet you could think of since I was 7 reliable family and I would say. Also I have fostered about five dogs since moving out of my parents house. I love that I can provide a loving, caring, and comfortable environment for any pet. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a currently stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, or simply providing companionship, I can be consistent and attentive throughout the day. I understand how important it is to stick to each pet’s normal routine, so I’ll do my best to follow your instructions and schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before providing care. I’ll carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules (if needed), exercise routines, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I believe in building trust with every animal by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to become comfortable at their own pace. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“I don’t know where to even begin. Julia was absolutely amazing and our two boys just loved her! On the first home visit she came in, hyped up the boys into going outside, and gave them lots of treats. Our dogs are not normally around other people but they are also big babies. I would definitely recommend Julia and we will be booking with her again 😊”
About: I have lived with dogs my whole life. I have a dog named Romeo who is 4 years old. I have learned that dogs deserve patience and quality time, of course love. I have watched others dogs, family and friends, and they have always been happy with the outcome. I have experience in cleaning, playing, feeding the right amount of food, and caring. I am an assistant manager at Exit 4 Escape Rooms in Glassboro. I consistently work 2 days a week within the days Wednesday through Sunday. Those hours range from 5:30 pm to Close (the latest being 10:30.) I also am a party princess/performer so I may have a gig on the weekends and I may be out for a couple hours. When I have a confirmed gig(s) If I am not available at all that day due to multiple, I will update my schedule immediately. I try to keep up with it on here. My household has 3 Dogs, including a fenced in yard. When I let them go out to use the bathroom, I will stand outside to make sure they get inside safely. Around their dinner time, one of our dogs has a separate food bag because he has food sensitivities so I make sure to separate their food and give them a specific amount of food that is good for them. I will play with them all the time, give them love and treats, and make sure they are content. (I will be the only caretaker, no one else in my household will be accompanying me!)
“We can’t say enough good things about Christina. From our first contact Christina was communicative, honest, polite, prompt, friendly, and caring. Her love for animals is obvious within the first moments of meeting her. She is thorough in getting all the important information - even things we hadn’t considered. She is great with our senior dog and our young puppy. She isn’t afraid to bring up any issues she’s seen our dogs exhibiting. Christina regularly shares photos of our dogs both to the app and maybe a couple extra via text. Her visit notes are detailed. We are thrilled with each interaction we’ve had with Christina and can confidently recommend her to anyone!”
“Madison was great. I felt confident in her from the meet and greet. Madison is a genuine and honest person. She has a natural interest in cats, she wants to take good care of them and she does, taking no short cuts.”

“Katie gave my one cat a pill every day and scooped the litter box while we were away. She came over before we left to go over instructions and said she would message us if there were any issues. We came back to nice clean litter boxes, and we did not get any messages so I’m assuming she was good giving the medication! Thanks Katie!”
About: I have had a family pet (cats, dogs, fish) my whole life and have pet sit for friends and family as well! I also am a foster for a local cat adoption non profit. I work from home, and have the ability to keep your furry family company throughout the day and ensure frequent breaks to go for walks and get outside as needed. We have a big fenced backyard that is perfect for playing and exploring! We also live on a dead end street with sidewalks, perfect for safe and quiet walks outdoors.
“Melissa was absolutely amazing while taking care of my two cats for a week. She was super responsible, reliable, and clearly really cared about them. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands the whole time. She kept everything clean, followed all the instructions, and made sure both of them were happy and comfortable. It honestly made being away so much less stressful. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter! 🐱💗”
“I booked last minute when my friend had to cancel her availability. Morgan was super quick to respond. Guppy seemed to really enjoy her visits and I was happy she was being looked after when I was away for the day. Highly recommend.”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clayton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Clayton 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 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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Clayton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
