“Absolutely amazing, my dog is a rescue dog and I am always unsure as to how he is going to react with others. He love Rachel from the very first day. She is such a caring person. Thank you.”
“This was my first time using the drop in option, and I was genuinely worried. But Sarah for sure upon meeting her and seeing her interact with my fur babies immediately put my mind at ease. It also helped that my fur babies almost immediately loved her and that helped me to enjoy the time away with my other family members. I loved all the pictures and updates, and I would highly recommend Sarah as I will be looking to rebook for the future when needed as well!”
About: I am 34 and i currently own 3 dogs. I have a senior 8 years old Affenpinscher, a 6 year old American Pit Bull Terrier, and a 4 year old Australian Shepherd mixed with Black Lab. No pet is too small or too big. I have raised/owned many animals since I was 7 years old. Anywhere from dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and lizards. I also have watched some friends animals while they went out of town. I have experience with various ages and physical health needs of different dogs and I understand not all dogs of the same breed require the same needs. I have personal experience with house breaking dogs, basic training (sit,lay,stay/wait), bathing, walking, and addressing some minor wounds. I am here to help make your day easier by assisting you and your fur baby to the best of my ability. Feel free to ask more questions. I am currently trying to change my career focus to something I genuinely love which is animals. I currently work full time on a plant. 4 days on and 4 days off. However, i want to be able to change that by starting to get out there and get more experience with working with other people's pets so that way I can hopefully make the career change to focusing on animals. I believe in full and open communication during the time of your pets visit. From building a bond with you and your fur baby to making sure that your pet receives not only the service your asking for but a fullfilled and happy time!
About: I have experience in dog care for 16 years, from puppies to senior dogs due to owning two of my own. My friends trust me to watch their dogs, knowing that I will treat them like my own. I have a hybrid work schedule, so I am home 3-days of the week and usually just run errands on weekends close to my community. I currently have one senior dog so I have to make sure not to be away too long. I have a big yard, but it is not fenced off. I do have a stake where I am able to let my dog outside without him wandering off, and I have cameras in the backyard as well but I am usually outside if I let them out. I normally walk my dog for exercise purposes.
About: I have grown up with dogs so I’m used to all kinds of dogs. From puppies to seniors. I also used to volunteer at animal shelters. I’m currently working part time and do most of college online. So I have plenty of time for your pets! I also have a very flexible schedule. I’m committed to providing quality care in the environment your pet is used too. My goal is make your pet feel well taken care of.
“Aimee was absolutely amazing! She arrived right on time and was incredibly respectful of our home. Our cat, Sunshine, adores her, and it's clear she has a natural way with animals. She kept us informed throughout her visits with clear communication and lots of pictures of our sweet girl, which gave us so much peace of mind. The whole experience was excellent from start to finish, and we couldn't be happier with her care. We'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Experience You Can Trust & A Backyard To Explore! I am a lifelong animal lover with years of professional pet-sitting experience. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, my goal is to make sure your pets feel like they are on a vacation of their own while you are away. Why Choose Me? • Professional Background: I have extensive experience working for a pet-sitting company, providing everything from daily drop-ins to multi-day care. • Large, Fully Fenced Yard: Our home features a big, secure backyard with plenty of trees and enrichment to keep your pup happy and active. • Medical & Special Care: I am comfortable and experienced in administering oral medications. Whether you have a high-energy puppy or a senior pet needing a gentle touch, I can adapt to their specific needs. • Mature Environment: My children are between 12 and 18, so your pet will enjoy an active but predictable home without the unpredictability of toddlers or very young kids. • Safe for All Personalities: We have two dogs and one cat of our own. If your dog isn't a fan of felines, don't worry—our cat can comfortably stay in her own dedicated spare bedroom during the visit. What Your Pet Can Expect: • Daily Updates: I send photos and check-ins so you can relax knowing your "furbaby" is in great hands. • Personalized Care: Fresh water, feeding, walks, and plenty of one-on-one playtime. • The Comforts of Home: Light baths and treats (as directed!) are always included. I know how hard it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. I treat every guest as if they were my own, ensuring they are safe, loved, and well-cared for. I offer daily drop-ins within 10 miles and overnight boarding in my home. My Schedule & Availability I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets! • 7-Day Availability: I am available for boarding and drop-ins Monday through Sunday. • Highly Flexible Routine: While I work part-time as a substitute teacher (usually around 10 hours a week, none in the summer), I am home the rest of the time. • Constant Companionship: During the brief hours I am at school, my 18-year-old son or my brother is home to keep the pups company. Both are fantastic with animals, so your pet will have constant supervision and love. • Customized Sleeping Arrangements: I am happy to accommodate your pet's sleeping habits. Whether they prefer to be crated at night or sleep on a dog bed, the choice is yours. I have crates available if needed, or you are welcome to bring your own! • Service Area: I offer daily drop-in visits and potty breaks within a 10-mile radius of my home. Safety & Trust: My Home Environment I prioritize a safe, stress-free environment for every guest. Here is how I manage my home to ensure your pet is well-cared for: • Social Dynamics: I have two dogs of my own: a lovable Golden Retriever who enjoys making new friends and a senior Rat Terrier mix who appreciates a calm environment. I am very experienced in monitoring play styles to ensure everyone is having a good time. • The Cat "Safe Zone": We have a resident cat, but I have a dedicated spare room where she can stay comfortably if your dog is not "cat-friendly." This allows your pup to have full run of the main living areas without any stress. • Secure Supervision: Your pet will never be left unattended in my fully fenced yard. Whether we are playing outside or going for a walk in the neighborhood, safety is my first priority. • Flexible Care Options: * In-Home Boarding: For pets staying with me, I offer structure, exercise, and companionship. • House Visits: I provide reliable drop-ins for bathroom breaks or multiple daily visits if you prefer your pet to stay in the comfort of their own home. I would love to do a meet and greet prior to your stay if time allows.
“Michael helped us out with a last minute request. He was reliable, and clearly great with our dogs! Both of our pups seemed well taken care of and happy when we got home. It was a huge relief knowing they were in good hands. We highly recommend him for anyone needing a trustworthy and dependable dog sitter!”
About: I’ve been around dogs all of my life. When I was in college, I was the student my professors would ask to take care of their pets when they would go on vacation and summers, including house sitting. I currently have 2 boxers and love them so much! They are the most spoiled furbabies ever! Boxer energy is always a thing in my house!!! They are very well taken care of and that’s how I would treat my clients’ pets. I would not want just anyone coming in to take care of my pets, but someone that is trustworthy, dependable, reliable, and knows how to give the care and love that would like to give them when you are away. I would love the opportunity to spoil your furbabies too! I’m currently working full time but am available weekends. However my schedule will change soon to accommodate more availability during the weekdays in the summer. My dogs are sweet as pie and love to run, go for walks, and just play boxer style…they are boxers! I am used to the crazy that comes with it and all of the cuddles and love that they give in return. My dogs are used to going out multiple times on leash a day and walks daily. I take safety very seriously with my pets and always have my emergency pack with me-bottle of water, bags, phone, keys, even spare key in case, clicker, and treats with me!! I’d rather be safe than sorry.
“Emma! What a blessing it was for us to have you check in on Scooby while we were away. This was our first time using the service and it was so easy to navigate and communicate with Emma. We returned home to a happy dog who was well cared for in our absence. We look forward to rebooking with Emma.”

Michael was excellent looking after my baby, Ecko. He was very attentive with her and the things she required. His services exceeded what was expected and communication was excellent. He even gave a couple of stuffed Pokemon to my grandson.I received plenty of pictures everyday and could see how well Ecko was doing. I was very pleased with his care and would definitely have him take care of my baby if needed again. Thank you for providing a great experience for my family.

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.
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 .

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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
