About: My name is Megan and I have been taking care of animals most of my life. I work in the veterinary field as an assistant in rooms and surgery. I am able to handle any size dog or cat. I am able to medicate, walk, drop in, feed, or just hangout with your pet. I do work full time. I am available to drop in before work and drop in after work. I can also do walks after work. I work 4 days a week. On my days off I can drop in 2-3 times a day or go for walks! Taking care of pets in your home I will also focus on the home itself. I will stick to your pets schedule for walks, feeding, and potty breaks. If watching your pet while you are away I also make sure to maintain your home meaning vacuuming or cleaning up any day to day messes.
About: Hi, I’m Alexis!💞☺️👋🏼 I have always loved and had a connection with all types of animals and joined Rover in the summer of 2022 to fill some of my time, I took a short break but now am back to sitting in CoeurdAlene, Idaho to fill some of my free time!☺️🐾 Before I found out I didn’t quite have the stomach for it and actually explored the career, I always wanted to be a veterinarian so I could get to work with animals! Since I couldn’t handle the messy medical parts now I love to sit + walk the fur-babies, take them to the park, and give lots of snuggles + treats!🥰 I’ve took care of pets since I was little and our animals had multiple litters of puppies and kittens as well so I’ve got to take care of little fur babies too along with the experience I’ve gained through Rover❤️ My mom and I ran a pet sitting page through Thumbtack in 2014 for a few years that was super similar to Rover and we were voted a top sitter under ItsRainingCats&Dogs<3 I love getting to feel like I’m helping a family and pet stay close while they are apart, while I’ve done pet sitting I’ve worked with elderly, blind, deaf, and other disabilities that needed help with some extra things.❤️ I like to make sure the animal always feels as comfortable as it can if staying in my home so let me know any special needs and I will always send pictures!😊 I’ve also given medications before if your animal needs to take them while being watched just as long as it’s pills or oral, I’ve never administered a shot.❤️ I have a small lab retriever mix who is full of energy when he wants to be and has never not wanted to introduce himself to the others, he is about 20 lbs and going on 8!😊🐾 He also LOVES to get out of the house and go on car rides + swimming so as long as it’s okay with you and your pet wants to, they can come on the adventures as well!🥰 I’m currently finishing some school online and work on jewelry for my Etsy shop in the daytime so I am almost always home during the week and usually just run quick errands throughout the weekends so I’ll always be back to check on the pets if I go anywhere as long as they work well being left alone, if not can make arrangements☺️ I have a large grassy field I let them use the bathroom every 1 -2 hours and always watch over them while they eat just in case anything were to happen. If you’re furbaby gives you a hard time in the bath or you’ve noticed they’ve been getting a little stinky, I don’t mind sitting in there with them and getting wet. If they get anxiety from baths I can bring treats and help them stay calm.❤️ We have some oatmeal soap for dry + sensitive skin and soft bristle brushes as well as nail clippers if you notice they need theirs done I have been clipping my dogs for a long time😊 I love to get outside myself so if your dog likes to go to the dog park or on walks we’ll be besties🥰🐾 Me and Winston go swimming often as well in the warmer months! I always will supervise feeding times or manage if pets need to eat separately, I let the babies out and pick up if the owner wants me to keep the yard clean, watch to make sure no doors or rooms that are supposed to be kept shut are left open, make sure crates/kennels are secured 100% when leaving, I always will put a leash on when going anywhere with a pet and bring water if it’s hot outside to keep the babies cooled down🫶🏼
“Molly was great! We’ve got two senior kitties- one that needs twice daily medication- and Molly took good care of them while we were away. We were able to rest easy knowing they were in good hands.”

About: Not sure why my profile says that dogs must be spayed/neutered, I honestly don’t have a preference. I have consistently had pets since I was 6. Cats, dogs, fish, birds, hamsters, and turtles. I have also taken care of friends’ pets on a few occasions. Animals warm up to me quickly and seem to be drawn to me. I also tend to leave homes a little bit cleaner than I found them and I have been told that I am the best overnight guest ever, by my mom. 😁 My schedule is very open as I am retired and currently don’t have pets. I am available for short or long term pet and home sitting in your home. I prefer to meet you and your pet(s) at your home before I commit to staying. I would like to be sure that there is a connection between you and me and between your pet(s) and me. I have been called a ”dog whisperer” and parents have been surprised at the instant connection that I make with their pets. ☺️ I have also done a lot of gigs with the TrustedHousesitters app too, in Ireland.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with a passion for helping pups thrive and feel right at home. I’ve been training and showing dogs in obedience for over 20 years, giving me a deep understanding of canine behavior, structure, and positive reinforcement techniques. As a licensed veterinary technician with 15 years of experience in both emergency and general practice, I’m highly skilled in monitoring pet health, recognizing subtle changes, and safely administering medications when needed—so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, capable hands. My home features a securely fenced, shaded, and grassy backyard designed for safe play, along with plenty of toys and enrichment opportunities like feeding puzzles, treat games, and agility equipment to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. I also offer bathing and full grooming services, making it easy for your pet to come home happy, healthy, and looking their best! My priority is pet care! I am a licensed veterinary technician but am not currently working in the field (but have kept my license up to date). I am home nearly 24 hours a day (aside from occasional errands) and minimize time out of my home when I have client pets. As a licensed veterinary technician with 15 years of experience in both emergency and general practice, I’m highly skilled in monitoring pet health, recognizing subtle changes, and safely administering medications when needed—so you can feel confident your pet is in knowledgeable, capable hands. My home features a securely fenced, shaded, and grassy backyard designed for safe play, along with plenty of toys and enrichment opportunities like feeding puzzles, treat games, and agility equipment to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. I am happy to politicize leash- walks if requested and weather permits. Pets have free roam of my home, but I also have a dedicated ‘dog room’ where my personal dogs rest and can be separated from client pets if needed.
About: While growing up, we always had dogs, living with my best friend, i was her dogs' training instructor, and I have almost always lived with dogs' myself. I love them, despite them being much more needy than cats, but alike, we've always had cats too- even some households where cats and dogs weren't allowed to intermingle. I'm quick to catch a runaway and I've got an open schedule most the time. Our animals are like our children, they need attentive love and care, they sleep a lot, but their bedtimes food schedules and habits are as much of their nature as habit, and breaking their habits, never results in good endings. I operate my own business as SeansServices.Com, I do several tasks like landscaping, cleaning, moving or hauling. My schedule is pretty open until i have a job, then after my job, I am wide open again. There are times I'll do a long distance move, but I do know others on Rover I can recommend or refer if I am unavailable. I will always be up front. I currently cannot offer at home care, but I play with, work with and ask for or look up schedules every time they're given, with screen shots and alarms just like any job, I take my jobs seriously and my attentive and alertness on high. I never know what an animal is capable of until they show me, so I treat them all fairly with common warnings in mind, while addressing and watching for new concerns.
“Kacie helped me out so much by agreeing to take care of my girls last minute! She sent pictures and detailed notes every visit, which I really appreciate. Was very nice to come back to a clean home. Thanks so much Kacie! ?”


About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who understands how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routine. I know that every animal is different, and I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much our furry family members mean to us. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also comfortable following specific care instructions and keeping you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel right at home and give you confidence knowing they’re in reliable hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I currently work as a teacher from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM during the week, so my weekends are the perfect time for me to dedicate extra attention and love to your pets! I’m an animal lover and have two cats, one dog and 3 goats of my own who I care for every morning/night. When I get home, I make sure my pets get the attention they need, including taking my dog for a walk right away. I’m used to building pet care into my daily routine and understand how important consistency is for animals. On weekends, I have more flexibility to spend quality time with your pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, providing companionship, or simply keeping them company. I’m committed to following your pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time and play. I also have a friendly dog and two friendly cats! I understand that every animal has different needs and comfort levels, and I would always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. I would make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, and receive plenty of attention and care. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals, so I would always take introductions slowly and keep pets separated when needed to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
About: I have owned and loved on numerous dogs my entire life. I can never remember a time when I didn't have a tail waggin', face lickin', life long companion. No special skills here, just a heart that overflows for all dogs. I am a newly retired school district worker. My true passion has always been in taking care of animals. I don't really travel and what a better way to spend my days I have a huge fenced yard and a walking trail right behind my house that I use on a regular basis. Your furry friend will be allowed to roam wherever and sleeping on the furniture will never be a problem.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I personally own two cats. I have dog/cat sat for weeks on end with no issues. I love to play fetch with the dogs and play with cats when they find the time! I will drop everything I can to ensure that the animals in my care are well taken care of and that the area around them is better than when I arrived. I currently work in Spokane, WA at an accounting firm from 8-5 everyday with an hour lunch break. I am free almost every weekend and would love to spend time with some animals in my free time. I keep all areas clean; I clean up after the animals 2+ times a day or when necessary. I ensure they are fed at the correct times with the correct amount of food and ensure that their water is clean and full every day. I give tons of love to the animals and respect the owner's rules and regulations. I keep in contact, during the stay, with the owner if that is what they prefer.
About: 38 year old mental health care worker/student who loves dogs and would like to work with them as dogs are my favorite thing in the world I am good with virtually every type of dog. I have a mini dachshund and an American buldog so I know the small dog and I know the big dogs behavior. Will treat your dog as if it was part of the family I'm available throughout the week especially in the evening. I am also free most weekends. Will house sit or walk. I am reliable and committed to providing the best service as possible I feed and take care of my dogs everyday. I give them their medicine when they need it. I am aware of ticks and unusual behaviors and when to seek treatment for them.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all animals and treat them all as if they were my own!

I will continue to do petsitting on the side regardless. It’s my passion so it is my priority. :) I will make sure your dog is safe in your home, since I only offer in clients home sitting. They will be well cared for and I will make sure they are looked out for and content. I want your dogs to be as happy as they can be!

Christy was extremely kind and accommodating assisting me when my dog sitter was unable to make it due to an emergency.

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.
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 Coeur d'Alene 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
