About: Hi, I’m Sabrina ! I have been surrounded by all types, shapes, and sizes of animals my entire life. Over the last 6+ years, I’ve channeled that lifelong passion into dedicated, hands-on pet care. As the proud owner of two Pit Bulls and a small Pekinese 🐶🐶🐶🐾 I know exactly what it takes to handle large, strong, and powerful breeds safely on a leash. I am entirely confident managing pullers and high-energy dogs, but I am equally gentle, patient, and attentive with small breeds. No matter the size, your dog's safety and happiness are always my top priorities.✨🐾 ☀️ Flexible Morning & Afternoon Availability I specialize in daytime care! I am available for walks and drop-in visits during mornings and afternoons. This makes me the perfect fit for your midday pet care needs while you are at work, at school, or running errands. 🏡 Reliable Drop-In Visits for Dogs & Birds Need someone to check on your pets while you're away for the day? I offer dependable drop-in visits tailored entirely to your pet's routine. I look forward to reading their body language the moment I step through your door to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I am fully experienced and proudly offer care for: Dogs: Fresh food/water, potty breaks, backyard games, or a solid neighborhood walk to burn off energy. Birds: Checking cages, refreshing seed/water, and ensuring their environment is safe and secure. Home Security: I am always highly respectful of your space and will ensure your home is locked up tight, sending you detailed updates and photos after every single visit. I know how hard it can be to find a handler you can truly trust with your family members. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving you complete peace of mind! Let's schedule a Meet & Greet today!🫶🏼💃
About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was born and have made sure to take care of them well. I have experience and knowledge on most dogs, but I would like to expand that knowledge. This is my first time working with dogs that are not my own. I can do Monday through Friday, from 8:00 am up to 2:00 pm. If I can not scheduled, I am at a family event for the time being. I prefer inside dogs over outside dogs I have a fenced porch, an un-fenced yard, and a friendly Pit Bull who will be a nice companion for your pet. If you don't trust my pit bull I can put him in another room and lock it to help with you comfort
“Kaitlin feels almost like a family friend at this point. My puppers is head over heels and I truly believe a sweet bond was made this week with Charley my gurl and Kaitlin. Kaitlin came twice a day to drop in on my Princess. The photos of my pup’s happy face, the report cards and knowing she was well taken care of helped ease so much anxiety I felt about leaving my pup at home while I left for a week. No more boarding and kennels. Kaitlin is the answer!”
“Alison was fantastic. We have two very anxious cats and even they seemed to warm up to her! She even handled the bossing around from our non-anxious boy. Our babies were very well cared for and her updates are so cute and funny! Will definitely use again for our large fur family!”
“Wendy was absolutely fantastic with my two pups for daily drop-in visits while I was out of the country. She made everyone, pups included, happy and comfortable. I would absolutely use Wendy’s wonderful pet services again!”
About: I have always had pets growing up still have some! I love animals with a passion. You can trust me to treat your pet like it’s my own! I have taken a break from work because I want to focus on starting a family so I will be doing some rover jobs on the side. I currently live in a house with a big back yard I am willing to watch 1 dog at my house because I do have 4 other dogs that live with me.
“Very friendly, took it upon herself to meet my cats prior to sitting to make sure they liked her. Provided last minute sitting for the holidays which was much appreciated :) even brought in some packages that got delivered while I was away”
“LeighAnn is amazing! We had a last minute schedule change to due unforeseen circumstances and she was very flexible. She sent videos and pictures of our handsome Zukkers! 100% recommend her!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life ever since i was born. i treat my own 3 as if they are my actual babies (i mean they are!) I am so excited to be taking care of your baby soon. I am home from my first class around 11:30 am, my second around 5 pm and can get to you pretty quick depending on how far you live. feed them on schedule, provide fresh water, give exercise and playtime, clean up after them, and offer comfort and attention. Always follow the client’s specific instructions.
“He was an amazing pet sitter! went and checked on my babies as much as we asked and made sure they were taken care of while we were out of town! would definitely use his help again!”
About: I used to work as a Vet Tech for 3 years. Up until a few years ago I have always had an indoor dog and/or cat. When our fur baby Milly (Pit/ Staffy) passed and we found we enjoy entertaining a variety of breeds. Since then we have got another pit baby Ollie. He has grown up with a new pup in the house almost daily. He loves friends! He is very well socialized and loves everyone! We would love to share all our love with your Fur baby. My kids love when the fur babies want in bed with them. I have a nice sized fenced in back yard, and different sized kennels, including an extra large kennel. Also an exterior 10x 10 covered kennel outside. We love bringing your sweet baby in to our home to get some loving from all of us. I have 4 kids 20, 18, 13, 8. They all love animals and know how to treat fur babies. We have 5 cats, Shadow, Toofless, Athena, Mustashio, & Corbin. We are in a nice neighborhood and can take daily walks if that is what your pup enjoys. We play fetch in the back yard all the time. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thank you for considering us! I am a stay at home mom and homeschool all my kids. We are a big part of our church CTC:Church That Cares Tarkington and are in attendance every time the doors are open. I am the Tech team leader and my husband plays the bass. My 2 oldest daughters run our coffee shop & sing as well. We like to walk on a leash, even in the fenced in yard, to make sure you are comfortable. Please let us know if you would prefer them to free roam in the yard with supervision.
About: Hi there! I'm a former veterinary technician with over 5 years of hands-on experience in both general practice and emergency veterinary medicine. From routine check-ups to urgent care, I've seen it all—and I bring that same calm, compassionate approach to every pet I meet. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I've owned both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and I’m currently the proud pet parent of two sweet pups: Maggie, a lovable Golden Retriever, and Sally, a playful Goldendoodle. They keep life exciting—along with my two amazing kids! Now working full-time as an auditor, I still miss the daily interaction with animals, which is why I love offering pet care through Rover. Whether it's walks, playtime, or just a little TLC while you're away, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable with pets of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. I’d love to meet your furry family member and help give them the care and attention they deserve! I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, but I’m available for: Evening Walks & Drop-In Visits on weekdays after 4:00 PM Weekend Walks, Drop-Ins & Overnight Stays — fully available Fridays after 4:00 PM through Sunday evening Holiday Availability upon request I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and will always communicate clearly to ensure your furry friend gets the care and attention they need! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under close supervision. Inside my home, there’s a dedicated, pet-friendly area set up to ensure a calm and secure environment, complete with cozy resting spots, pet gates, and plenty of enrichment. My home is fully pet-proofed, and I can easily accommodate pets who are crate trained or have specific routines. I’m also comfortable administering medications or caring for pets with special needs, thanks to my experience as a veterinary technician. Before any stay or service, I offer meet & greets to ensure your pet feels comfortable with me and my home—and to give you peace of mind. Whether your pet is outgoing or shy, I’ll treat them with the love and patience they deserve. Your furry family member will be cared for like one of my own!
About: What sets me apart is the patience, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’m comfortable following detailed routines, caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and giving pets the time they need to feel comfortable with me. I also provide plenty of communication, photos, and updates so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. Luckily, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate drop-in visits throughout the day and provide care when your pet needs it most. I am happy to discuss your best schedule. For drop-in visits, I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow the routine and instructions provided by their owner. During each visit, I can provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, affection, and any other care your pet may need.
“We only needed them temporarily but they did a great job taking care of our fur baby and making sure he had plenty of attention and exercise in the middle of the day.”
“Thank you Austin & Courtland for taking such good care of my frenchies while I was out of town. I was very impressed by your communication and updates on caring for the little pups. I know they appreciated the snuggles, treats, and extra playtime outside with you.”

This is our second time using Amanda and I would recommend her over and over and over again! She’s so communicative, loves on our babies, and has the knowledge and expertise to pay real attention to the details of each of our pups. This booking was last minute and she didn’t make us feel like an inconvenience. We appreciate her so much!

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 .

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 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.
