“Virginia was very attentive and professional throughout the whole process, and provided very detailed updates on my cat’s care and behavior. She made both of us feel at ease.”
About: I have never lived in a house without a dog in my 19 years and have therefore developed all the skills necessary to care for them. I love dogs so much and they complete my life. I am an incoming Freshman at Suffolk University and have open availability for the most part. When classes begin in September that is subject to change though. I have experience with walking anxious and or reactive dogs so be reassured that that is not and issue with me. Im experienced in cat care as well.
“Julia took great care of our dogs! We have an older Jack Russell and a younger deaf & anxious Jack. They are wonderful dogs but require a little more work. Julia was wonderful with both. She sent updates and pictures and we could tell the dogs were comfortable and at ease with her. Julia came over earlier for a meet and greet and was very friendly & kind. We highly recommend her!”
About: My regular work schedule changes every week! So although it might show that I have a day blocked off, please message me anyways to see if I am available for a day you need help! :) I have had multiple cats and multiple dogs my entire life. I have also volunteered for animal transportation services! I have been counted on to bathe, feed, walk, and love all animals I have had in my care! I am currently working part-time a 3-4 days a week, and my schedule changes every week. I am very flexible on time though, and I take days off for house-sitting as well! Even if my calendar says a day might be blocked off, please message me anyways if you are looking for help on one of those days as my work schedule could have changed! I take my 2 dogs out every 3-4 hours as well as refill their water bowls throughout the day and feed them twice according to their diets. My cats are let out once or twice a day with supervision and are fed twice a day as well as their water bowl being refilled throughout as well. And of course they all get constant attention throughout the day. Your babies will be treated as if they were my own!

I have worked with dogs that require specific care like medicines, baths and schedules as well. Im currently available to work with your furry friends almost full time! Most days I have a flexible schedule that makes it possible to care for your pets when its most convent for you. I am able to provide walking services or drop in visits if your pet just needs some company! I can clean up any pet messes as well as feeding your furry friend if you need. I am open to discussions about providing baths if it is a task you need completed for your pet.
“Jen was a punctual, knowledgeable, and reliable cat sitter from our first visit to the last check in. Her reports show her pertinent observations on changes in the cat’s play and feeding behavior with good solutions to these behaviors. She was also willing to bring in the mail and take out the trash while we were away. The cats were playful and engaged in the videos she posted. We recommend Jen as a pet sitter and will use her services in the future.”
About: I've owned several dogs throughout my life since childhood and have experience with dogs that get nervous around new people or dogs that are nervous when home alone! I work throughout odd hours, but given enough time as notice I can make time for your furry companions! I cannot be available Thursdays, however I am available on other days! I have experience with crates, fences, as well as leashes to make sure your companion stays safe when outside! Since I have family members with allergens at my home, I will be unable to care for your pets in my home, however I will make sure to take utmost care with your beloved friends wherever I may be!
“Allyson was top notch! Our younger dog immediately warmed up to her when she visited before our trip, which is a rarity for our younger dog. We knew right then our dogs would be in great, caring hands for the week we were away. Our older dog has daily medicine he takes orally and Allyson was comfortable giving it to him. Allyson was reliable, a great communicator, and went above and beyond her responsibilities. Allyson has a warm, caring personality and was sensitive to our dogs' needs. We will definitely have her care for our dogs again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs surrounding me! 6 throughout my own home life, and more through friends and family. I’ve taken care of the young and the old, the sick and the energetic, from chihuahua to mastiff! My schedule revolves around them, not the other way around. It’s my personal mission to keep any pet in my care safe and happy, or safe and content if it takes a while for them to get used to me. Your dog(s) will be well-fed, stress-free and will hopefully have gained a new friend :) I work part time 2-3 days a week, so lots of time for pups! I’m used to staying up late and waking up early for my own. I’ve yet to meet a dog that doesn’t like me!

Health/safety: - any safety instructions given will be strictly followed - any and all allergies will be taken extremely seriously - I have experience in administering most forms of oral and topical medications, if needed - happy to give a brush-through, but baths and nails are out of my wheelhouse for now

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clinton 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 Clinton 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.

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 Clinton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
