About: Animals have been the touchstone of my life. I grew up taking care of animals and I prioritize each pet’s needs. I understand that each pet is different and will provide excellent care to your pets as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs at all life stages, and can administer medications confidently. Whether your dog loves to snuggle, play with toys, run around outside, or keep their distance, I can meet them where they’re at with patience and respect. I will provide photo and text updates for you, follow care instructions precisely, and be available for any questions you may have. The times listed are when I’m not working and fully available to take care of your pets! For drop in visits, I make sure I can spend at least an hour at your home and won’t be rushed. At my home, your pet will be with my two dogs and two cats, all of whom are friendly. There are plenty of dog beds, toys, and places to get cozy. We have a large, unfenced backyard, where your pup can play, supervised by me. We often let the dogs out at night leashed to ensure they stay close. I love to take the dogs for walks at the lake nearby or rail trail. I will be home with them all day.
“Leona was great!! She took the time to sit with my dog and she was very patient with her. She gave great updates and you could tell she truly cared about my dog. Will be booking her again in the future.”
“This is the second time that I used Amad to care for my cats, he has been great, will stay and play with them, easy to reach and will quickly respond . Overall we highly recommended .”

About: I have had dogs all my life and have taken care of my own since I am old enough now. I like spending time outdoors with my dogs and walking them and throwing the ball. I have plenty of experience as I have been on Rover for a few years now. I have about 4 pet families I sit for and I enjoy what I do! I work as a toddler teacher so my time varies throughout the week. I go into work at 8 and get out at 4. I have some week long breaks here and there. I am available most weekends. My dog takes meds right now for seizures so I am experienced at giving dogs medicine. Very responsible animal lover I have always had animals in my life. I am good about having the house clean when there’s a fluffy shedding dog in it. I have experience in cleaning up dirty crates, accidents on the floor and making sure the animal is being safe.
About: Hello! My name is Nora. I have been petsitting for over 15 years! I first started caring for dogs when a friend found out my love for dogs and how much fun I had running with them and making them happy splashing in the water or just playing fetch! My arm can hold up to all the tug-a-wars any dog throws at me as well as throwing a good tennis ball. I love being outdoors and can go for miles walking any size dog. My experience includes any overnights or day-vacations that require your dog to stay home or while your at work. My availability is pretty open so feel free to contact me and let's set up some walks or sitting for an occasion. Looking forward to hearing from you and your dog/animals. I currently work full-time in insurance, but with a flexible work schedule I am able to petsit almost anytime. I currently have 4 dogs in my household, so any amount of dogs, cats, horses, and farm animals, I am available! When taking care of any pet, whether that be of my own or a petsitting job, every animal is taken care of like my own. My 4 dogs are trained to an electric fence, but have trained to kenneled fence, crate, fenced in yard, and on the leash. I love providing care for each pet with love and no matter the occasion, your pet is in good hands.

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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
