“I am so pleased to have Elena caring for my three Shar Pei Her engaging personality, professionalism, and extensive knowledge about her clients are truly outstanding. She has exceeded my expectations in every way.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life so I love animals! Growing up I had 3 cats and 2 dogs so it was like a zoo. I would say I like animals more than humans haha. I will make sure to keep you updated the whole time so you can be put at ease while your furry friend is with me. I don’t currently have a part time/full time job so I’m very open when it comes to availability. My husband is in the Air Force so his schedule can be pretty hectic sometimes but I am home most of the time taking care of our pups! I live on Mountain Home AFB so there’s always security. I also have a fenced in backyard and two other dogs your pup can play with!
About: Growing up, I loved helping my dad care for his hunting dogs during training sessions and occasionally joining them on hunts. I also helped care for our family dogs by taking them on walks, feeding them, bathing them, and spending time playing with them. During college, I cared for friends' dogs and cats in their own homes, including taking dogs on walks and looking after kittens. I also have a cat of my own who I've had for about a year and a half, so I know how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their people are away. Beyond cats and dogs, I have experience caring for horses, guinea pigs, reptiles, and other small animals through my time working on farms. I'm passionate about animals and love getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I also work from home, which means I can spend plenty of quality time with your pets throughout the day! I'm happy to provide extra company and attention for pets who need a little more reassurance while you're away. My own cat has some serious attachment issues 😂, so I'm very familiar with having a furry little shadow and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'll do my best to stick to your pet's usual routine and give them lots of love while you're away! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with your pets throughout the day! I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, including extended stays when my schedule allows. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my priority! I'm happy to follow your instructions closely, keep up with their normal routines, and make sure they're comfortable in their own home. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I'll take the time to get to know them and respect their boundaries. I'm also happy to provide updates and photos while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

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 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.
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 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.
