“Kaitlyn is a great sitter! She does a wonderful job with my dog Harper and always sends the cutest photos. It makes it easier to leave knowing she will be there to check in during the day! Thank you ??”
About: Hello! My name is Sara. I was a dog and cat boarding and dog daycare manager at a popular animal hospital in Duluth for several years. I originally started at an entry level in 2015 and worked my way up to a management position in 2017, where I stayed until 2021. I had to leave the position due to relocating to Athens. Since then, I spent some time at another veterinary hospital local to Athens as a receptionist from 2021 to 2022. In 2022 I switched to a work from home position, but found myself deeply missing the fulfillment that comes from taking care of pets. I started doing pet sitting for family, friends, and a smattering of former clients from my previous work places, and then decided to try and branch out to do it more frequently as a side business! My family and I are located in Commerce, on a private property with a large yard. Currently it is unfenced, but we are planning to fence it in the future. I had to take some time away from Rover due to moving into a new construction home, but I am back now and ready to host your lovely pups again! In my time as a kennel manager, I took several professionally-taught classes on dog behavior and worked closely with the head veterinarian and business owner to learn about the in's and out's of dog behavior. While I am NOT a medically trained professional (I can not and WILL not make diagnoses or provide treatment for your pets, as I am not registered!!), I do have some knowledge of common health conditions and medications that dogs and cats might experience over their lives. I have a wide array of knowledge of dozens of different dog breeds and everything in-between. I also cared for cats that were away from home and helped in any way I could to try and keep them comfortable. I became very aware of anxiety in dogs and cats: how to spot it, how to try to soothe it without reinforcing it, and the best ways to avoid triggering anxiety in the future. Through slow and steady acclimation I regularly assisted new pets to the kennel facility get more comfortable and accustomed to their home away from home. The facility I managed also had large play groups of up to 10-15 dogs at a time that were monitored at all times. This only continued to reinforce my experience with dog behavior and reading their signals to avoid any scuffles from occurring in the first place. Altercations between animals were rare to nonexistent. Finally, I learned about numerous different types of food and medications and how to best administer them. I became quite experienced with getting pets to take their medication orally and also learned how to administer insulin subcutaneously. I didn't at all mind sitting and feeding pets by hand if they were too nervous to eat on their own, and would regularly clean ears, wrinkle folds, and anything else needed as requested by their owners for dogs with sensitive skin. I especially fell in love with senior pets- those that are always eager for a buddy to curl up on and for pets and attention, but are perhaps a bit too sensitive to be in large groups or around many other dogs. Working as a kennel manager made a huge difference in the amount of experience and understanding I have with animals. I strive to offer a safe, calm and comforting home for your beloved pets to relax in while you are away. I want to put your mind at ease so you don't have to worry at all- your pet will be loved like they're my own when they're here. :) I work from home and make my own schedule with my main career, so I am able to step away to tend to your pet when needed. ALL PETS MUST BE UP-TO-DATE ON VACCINES AND FLEA/TICK MEDICATION! PLEASE INFORM ME OF ANY FOOD ALLERGIES YOUR PET MAY HAVE! I have a fenced in backyard and am available during the day to tend to your pet at any time. We do not have any dogs in the house, though we do have a cat that keeps to herself. I am experienced with anxious animals and have several years' experience of pet care in a professional setting, so I am well aware how to handle animals of all sizes, temperaments and ages. I am able to administer medication on whatever schedule is required, and have experience administering insulin injections as well. I do offer basic grooming services if you are interested! **Please note I cannot provide haircuts beyond very minimal cut-outs of small mats, etc.** BATH ONLY: $40 DREMEL NAIL TRIM ONLY: $20 ANAL GLAND EXPRESSION: $15 Please note that I will NOT perform a grooming service if your pet is very distressed or trying to bite during! I will of course refund any fees for services that are unable to be completed.
“Kayla has been our saving grace with our baby girl. She’s extremely reliable, quick to respond, sends pics of our girl while we’re away, and takes the best care of our girl! We’ve rebooked with Kayla several times and HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“Having never used Rover before, I was somewhat nervous. However, our sitter Caylei very quickly gave me the confidence that we made the right choice. She answered my request late at night the day before we were to leave for a funeral, and did an exceptional job making sure our little guy was well taken care of. From the photo updates, to the timeliness of arrival, Caylei was an absolute life saver. We (the dog included) are very much looking forward to using her again for future services! 100/100!!”
“Savanna was great! My regular sitter had an emergency and Savanna really helped me out. She was prompt and kind in all her communication. She was wonderful with my puppy Louie and I would 100% hire her again. Definitely recommend!”
“We have used Maya several times, she's great! We have an elderly cat that needs meds daily. It's so comforting to know when I'm not there I can rely on Maya to check on my old girl ♥️”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and took care of them when sick or when family or friends were away. I can continue training if needed. I love to take care of fur babies. I can confidently say when you get home your fur babies will be happy! I am a caregiver for the elderly with dementia my schedule varies but tends to be midday up to 5 days a week 4-5 hour shifts. I can adapt to any set of rules you may have for your pets to help them be more comfortable and feel safe while in my care.
“Alexis was awesome! One of my pups is a diabetic and it was a huge relief to find someone with the knowledge and ability to care for him and give him his shot of insulin. Highly recommend Alexis!”
About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs
“Kassidy was awesome with our pets while we went on Vacation. She came every day and spent time with them and fed them while keeping me updated with photos which gave me peace knowing they were safe. Will be using her again”

About: I have experience taking care of both small and large dogs with a wide variety of personalities. I’ve cared for dogs who deal with anxiety as well as some of the most sociable pups. Young and old, I love all dogs the same! I am currently working part time as a substitute teacher so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m fairly flexible to meet the needs of your pup! I try and follow the normal schedule and routine you have for your pet. I have no problem crating your dog if needed but can let them free roam if that’s normal for them as well. I also try and keep them on the same feeding time. If your dog is used to walks in the morning or evening I try to accommodate that as well as the length of the walk.

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 Commerce 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.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
