About: Hi I’m Ali! (Alexandra is my full name) Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs of my own, Zuko and Maggie, who have given me experience with dogs at very different stages of life. I raised and trained Zuko from the time he was a puppy, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that young dogs need. I also adopted Maggie when she was 9 years old, which has given me experience caring for a senior dog and understanding that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I treat every dog in my care like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while they’re with me. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, cuddles, patience, or simply a cozy place to relax, I’m happy to give them the personalized care and attention they deserve. 🐶❤️ Pet Care That Fits Into My Everyday Life 🐾 I work fully remotely, which means I’m home with the dogs throughout the day and able to give them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. My workday typically starts at 8:30 AM, but every morning begins with a long walk for Zuko to make sure he gets his exercise and starts the day happy. My schedule is also flexible, so I’m able to take multiple breaks throughout the day for potty breaks, backyard playtime, cuddles, and check-ins. I love having dogs around while I work, and having them as part of my daily routine makes pet care feel very natural. Your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches while in my care. I’m able to provide frequent attention, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of love throughout the day while still maintaining a consistent routine. I have a medium-sized, fully fenced-in yard where dogs have plenty of room to run, play fetch, and get their zoomies out! I love giving pups opportunities for exercise and play while also making sure they have a safe and comfortable space to relax. I also have a designated pet room upstairs for dogs who need some quiet time or a little space of their own. It’s set up with plenty of toys, comfortable pet beds, and everything they need to feel cozy and at home. My goal is to give every pup a balance of play, attention, and downtime so they can feel safe, happy, and comfortable while they’re staying with me.

“Best pet caretaker ever! Katelyn has been watching our dog on a regular basis for 4 months and does an excellent job. I always come home to a happy dog and everything in are home is just how we left it. Katelyn does a superb job of communicating any concerns or questions in a prompt manner.”

“First time using Rover and have been so glad Peggy has been able to take care of my older girls. They love having a break in their day while waiting for me to get home from work with her company. :)”

About: As the proud owner of a sweet, Chocolate Lab named Charlie Brown, I know firsthand that our animals aren’t “just pets”—they’re family! I offer professional, reliable drop-in visits and walks tailored specifically to your dog's unique energy levels and safety requirements. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles or whatever your pet loves most to make their day extra special. I’m happy to follow their usual routine and take the time to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I’ve always loved dogs and truly enjoy being around them. In fact, even when I’m on vacation, I find myself looking for ways to spend time with dogs! On my last vacation, I visited a local shelter and ended up taking one of the dogs out for the day—just because I wanted to give them some extra love, attention, and a fun break from the kennel and it was so rewarding. I genuinely love dogs! I’m also a cat lover and happy to care for your cats, too! I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, attention, and of course plenty of love while you’re away. I’ve spent the past 20 years caring for pets as an adult and have had cats and dogs throughout my entire life. I’d love to give your pets that same love and attention I give mine, while they’re in my care. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate both recurring and occasional walks or drop-in visits. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine whenever possible. **If you do not see open availability on a particular date for which you would like to request my services, please message me and I will let you know if I am available to accommodate your pet's needs** I want your pet to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have cared for family and friends pets since I was 14 years old. Combined with my love for animals and attention to detail, my skill set has helped to create a special experience for each pets needs. From energetic dogs needing more patience and structure to senior pets who need a little more tend love and care! I am currently working full-time, 7am-2:30pm (M-F). However, on weekends and afternoons I am free to devote my time to caring for your pets. I don't work summers which allows me the flexibility to provide the best care needed to each of your fur pups. When caring for my own and other pets safety and trust is a top priority. Each pet is different however I still make it my business to make sure pets and parents of pets feel comfortable by catering to their specific needs in and out of my home. In my own home, I make sure the environment is free from anything that can be toxic to animals such as exposed wire, toxic plants, or foods. I maintain consistency with pet schedules to ensure each animal feels comfortable. I have a large backyard that is partially fenced in so pets can get regular exercise. I also have one mini poodle that goes by Karter, if it meets the pets needs Karter is great company to keep to promote interaction and stimulation throughout the day.

“Amber did a great job looking after my cat Katie. It was nice that she left the overhead fan on for her because it was very hot while I was away. Katie seemed very relaxed and happy when I returned from my trip.”

About: I have always loved animals. I grew up with 2 cats & have owned a beagle for the past 6 years. I understand how important daily exercise, love & attention are for any animal. Trusting someone with your pet can be hard, I will be sure to send plenty of photo/text updates if desired! I am currently at home full-time. This gives me plenty of flexibility with pet care. I can provide drop-in visits & dog walks throughout the day. I am happy to help! I am dependable & will keep your pet comfortable in their own space. I will follow your pets routine of feeding, walking, playing, or any special instructions. I can send photo updates for peace of mind. I will most likely have my baby with me in a carrier or stroller so I can only accommodate child-friendly dogs. The carrier keeps me hands-free to make sure I can give your dog my attention & play! I will always confirm with you that this is okay before booking.
About: I have owned dogs and cats of all sizes and I am comfortable with both puppies and senior animals. I have a secure, large yard, air conditioning, and full-time availability to spoil your pet. (My dog has passed so no pets live in the home). I'm very attuned to animals needs and make sure they're comfortable and calm. I am happy to host multiple pets at once as long as your pet is friendly (can host cats alone without other animals). I work from home part time. My house is very chill and my schedule is flexible. I rarely need to leave the house, and if your dog has separation anxiety i can plan to be fully available. I drive so I can attend to pets as needed throughout the day and evening at your home. If at my home, we will mostly hang out on the first floor where your pet can access food and water. I provide frequent bathroom breaks and time out in the yard (or a quick walk around the neighborhood). At clients homes, I make sure the pet is comfortable in its natural environment, play, and take them outside as needed.
“Joann is great!! So happy we connected! It gives me so much piece of mind when I’m at work to know my little Lucy is being taken care of. She lets her out, plays with her and always lets me know how Lucy is! Great experience!!”

About: Hi everyone, I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. I would consider it a privilege to take care of yours!!! Thank You I’ve been a school teacher for 30 years. I’m retiring in the next couple of years. I’m looking forward to the next chapter of my life by fulfilling another passion of mine, taking care of dogs. I’ve always loved dogs. I will give love and attention to your dog as if your dog were my own. My life would not be complete without a dog. I’m fully available to walk your dog and drop-in sitting at your house. I’m a school teacher, off for the summer and on Sabbatical for the next school year. Safety, love, and attention for others pets are my top priorities. I think about how I would want my precious Cooper cared for by others, therefore, your dog will receive my full attention. I’m currently on Sabbatical, (I’m a school teacher.) therefore, I have the flexibility to accommodate any potential clients schedule. I travel back and forth between our home in PA and FL. I treat any pet in our home as if it is our own. The dogs I’ve cared for in our feel comfortable because of the interaction between my husband, my son, and myself. We thoroughly enjoy dogs in our home and so does Cooper, our 5 year old dog.

About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also just became a new Fur Mom to an 8 month old golden retriever (who has put me through the wringer so far). I am an animal lover and just want to be helpful since I use rover myself for sitters, and i figured I’d be just as helpful as the many sitters on here have been for me!! I work full time but that is just 3 days a week, so any other day I am available most of the day to accommodate your fur babies! My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and bunnies since I was younger. I currently have two bunnies of my own. Friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets, walk them, play with them, etc. Pet lover at heart. I do work from home mostly so I can work around my schedule. I currently work from home 8-4, so I have relatively open availability for all of your needs. My schedule fluctuates week to week based on meetings, etc. Open to walks and drop in visits as long as my schedule allows. I currently have two pet rabbits that are in a gated area. I have enough space in my apartment to accommodate your pet if needed. My apartment complex has a fenced in dog park and lots of areas for walking.
About: I have had dogs my entire life; mainly German shepherds. In my adult life, I have rescued Pitbulls. I am capable of feeding, letting out/walking, playing with, sitting, and giving medicine to, if necessary. I learned to give fluids through IV under the skin to one of my pitbulls who was in kidney failure at the end of her life a few years ago. I am currently working part-time, which I am planning on giving up once I have enough clientele so that I can do what I really love to do. I will come to your home and take care of your pet there so that they are as comfortable as possible with someone new in their surroundings.
About: I currently have two cocker spaniels and one is partially blind and he trusts my voice. They are family and get treated like a member. I worked in The Casino business and while working there I fell back into dog care for co wokers who were working double shifts and then things took off from there while dog care walks and play time I also cared for cats as well! I love what I do and that is important balance in showing how well you work with animals! I like to excercise the dog and then spend some chill time towards then end of the session. I have walked 3 dogs at one time and I am very comfortable doing so. So I look forward to meeting you and you fur baby!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Croydon 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Croydon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
