“Maya was great!!! Very responsive and attentive! My pups were truly cared for and I am truly grateful. My dog had a hot spot and she made sure to take care of it. Loved the recap she provided at the end. Book with Maya. Will definitely be booking with her again😬.”
“Nita did an awesome job watching my 3 pups. She sent plenty of pictures which really eased my mind. I can be over the top with my dogs and really felt comfortable having Nita at the house watching the dogs. I will definitely use her again.”
“Laurie did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Jack Sparrow, while I was out of town. She provided me with frequent updates on how my little guy was doing and took excellent care of my home. I wouldn't hesitate to request her again and would give her the highest recommendation to any of my friends and family!”
“Querhea is an absolute delight and pleasure to work with. She took care of my babies while I was in surgery and they love her. She even stayed past her scheduled time until we got home from surgery the next day. I will be booking her for all our family needs”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kyra caring for our dog Dewey and cat Lily while staying at our home. She was incredibly communicative from start to finish, sending my partner and me detailed updates twice a day along with tons of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What really stood out was how thoughtful and attentive she was — she asked great questions, paid close attention to routines and details, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about both of our pets equally. It can sometimes feel like one pet naturally gets more attention than the other, but she made both Dewey and Lily feel so loved and cared for. We came home to happy pets and a well cared-for home, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented.”
“Kimari did great with my pets, she was very respectful of my home and patient with my dog who sometimes barks at strangers. I got photo updates daily and came home to a happy dog and cat!”
“Bridget is a kind, energetic, conscientious caretaker! Lucy has never been so relaxed when we arrived home. We booked immediately after her interview which was about a month out. Bridget requested coming back over to walk Lucy a week before our trip so Lucy would be more comfortable when we left. Bridget wanted to arrive at our home early so that she’d have some time with Lucy while we were still here. She also stayed until we arrived home to give us a report of how the stay went. While we were gone, Bridget sent us several photos of Lucy. Bridget is a true professional and a huge animal lover. Lucy is a senior dog that requires medication. Bridget didn’t hesitate. We would highly recommend her services. In fact, we are already rebooking!”
“Ziana is awesome! She took great care of my cats and my house while I was away for a few days. My shy cat warmed up to her quickly and she was patient and playful with my more energetic cat. She adhered to the daily routine my cats are used to and gave them the attention each requires. She is responsive and communicates clearly. Ziana was respectful of my home and my time. I will absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a pet or house sitter.”
“Haven went above and beyond to make sure Ava got all the love and attention while we were away on a long trip. From taking her on long walks to keeping me in the loop on her schedule, I had full confidence that Ava was well taken care of.”
“Shelbi was absolutely amazing while we were away for 10 days. She took incredible care of our dogs and our home, kept us updated, and gave us real peace of mind the entire trip. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own. Coming home to happy dogs and everything in perfect shape made the end of vacation so much easier. We would 100% book with Shelbi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring Rover sitter.”
“Angela was great! This was my first time getting a sitter and she will forever be the person I call when I need my cat watched! She sent me updated photos which also made me feel at ease! She followed all instructions & had great communication! 10/10 recommend!”
“Rex did an amazing job watching our home and pups. Our pups don't get along so it's tough for us to find someone willing to take on that responsibility. She made sure our dogs were safe and had plenty of attention. Our house was also taken care and clean. We highly recommend Rex and will be contacting her for future trips.”
About: I’ve been around pets all my life! I’ve never lived in a house that did not have a dog or cat present, and it just doesn’t feel like home without one! I’m currently an owner of a 7 year old cat myself, but I’ve always been around dogs of all ages and sizes! I frequently pet sit and stay overnight for family members, as well. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 am-4:30 pm, but I do have an hour lunch break from 11:30 am-12:30 pm, which I can use to check on your pet, take them on a short walk, play, or feed them (if needed!) I do not work on the weekends, so I am 100% available to stay overnight Friday-Saturday and make sure everything is good to go before I leave on Sunday! Before I leave and while I’m there, I always make sure there is nothing left out that an animal can get into, and I always ensure there is water and food that is easily accessible to them. A good play session is something I like to do to make sure they were given enough attention before I leave, or, for dogs, I take them on a short walk to get some of that energy out!
“Taylor was really great! Not only was she able to accept us kinda last minute, but she also took good care of Lilly, and came 3 times every day to take her out to potty and play. She also was so kind to buy her food when it ran out. I was nervous to leave my baby with a stranger, but Taylor was a great choice! :)”
About: I have cared for dogs and other pets all my life and know how important it is for our pets to have consistent, loving, and dependable care. I treat every pet in my care like a cherished family member. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and completely comfortable in their own home while you are away. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages and energy levels. I know that every pet has a personality, from puppies who need to release that extra energy to older dogs that need extra patience and attention. I have personal, hands-on experience caring for aging pets and those navigating complex health journeys, including cancer. I am fully comfortable administering oral medications (pills and liquids) with a gentle, patient touch. Puppy Patience & Guidance: While not a commercial trainer, I have successfully raised and trained multiple puppies over the decades using consistent, loving, and positive reinforcement. In-Home Comfort & Security: By focusing exclusively on house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks, I keep your pets in their familiar environment—minimizing stress and giving you total peace of mind. I look forward to helping you have peace of mind and giving your special pet the companionship, cuddles and play (or simple, calm routine) they need while you're away. My schedule is flexible so I am able to adapt to your pet’s routine. Whether they need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight companionship, I have the time and dedication to make sure they get unhurried, attentive care every single day. I try to adjust my daily routine to mirror yours as closely as possible, keeping your pets on their familiar schedule for meals, play, and bedtime. Because I don't host pets in my home, my focus is entirely on keeping yours safe and comfortable in theirs. Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety are my absolute highest priorities. When you trust me with your home and your beloved pets, I take that responsibility seriously, ensuring a secure, stress-free experience from start to finish. Meet & Greets: Before any booking, I always meet with you and your pets in person. This ensures your pet feels comfortable with me, lets us review their unique routines, and allows us to establish your exact communication preferences. Meticulous Home Security: I am thorough when it comes to securing your home. You never have to worry: I double and triple check every door, lock, and gate before leaving your property. Consistent Communication & Photos: You will never be left wondering how your pet is doing. I send updates and photos with every single visit, keeping you fully in the loop so you can relax while you are away. Safety First on Every Walk & Visit: Decades of pet ownership mean I am always alert to surroundings, keeping dogs on a secure leash, monitoring for potential hazards, and giving your pets the calm, vigilant attention they deserve.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dalworthington Gardens
This is the second time Laurie has taken care of our girls while we were out of time and we couldn’t be more pleased. Our girls remembered her and were well taken care of. Thank you Laurie, we will definitely keep her as our first choice for a sitter going forward.
This was my first experience with using Rover as well as having anyone in my home that wasn’t family that I trusted to take care of my fur baby. Maya was absolutely perfect even from the initial meet & greet I felt very comfortable with her and how Bubba interacted with her then. Even through my concerns or better yet overbearing , Maya was patient, respectful and super understanding that I was new to this. She is such a great sitter and will definitely use her every chance I can get.
Kaelyn Took such great care of my dog while I was away. I truly appreciated her reliability, attentiveness, and the genuine care she showed my dog. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in such capable hands. I will gladly recommend Kaelyn to others. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
We had such a wonderful experience with Kyra caring for our dog Dewey and cat Lily while staying at our home. She was incredibly communicative from start to finish, sending my partner and me detailed updates twice a day along with tons of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

Would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and detail-oriented.
Zaida provided excellent care for our dogs while we were out of country on vacation for five days. We have a dog who can be fear-reactive to new people, and she took the time to do a drop-in to ensure a positive first meeting before we even booked. We truly appreciated her patience! She was very professional and communicative throughout the entire process. The daily updates and photos were great, and we felt totally at ease. We will definitely book with her again!
Angela was heaven sent. I just recently lost my pug, one week before she was due to take care of both of my babies. Her kindness to my Sheba knowing that she was sad she showed her so much love attention to the point when I got home Sheba was crying for her at door! Angela you’re apart of our pack now Sheba said so lol. She has great heart . Thank you for helping me .
Amber is a wonderful person! She loves our sweet pup as much as we do. She feels like one of the family! She stayed at our home for two weeks and we had no worries. She always leaves things as good as, or better than, when we left. And she is a wonderful communicator in words and pictures.
Reagan was so good with our boy, Ricky Bobby!! Ricky Bobby has a few quirks like most dogs do, but one of his more notable ones is that he tends to anxiety chew on himself when we’re out of the house, and sometimes breaks skin if not stopped. Reagan did a fantastic job watching out for this behavior and kept him calm and content through her time in our home. Reagan was also very communicative throughout the visit and sent multiple pictures and updates of the goings on. Overall, we could tell that Ricky Bobby was very comfortable and happy to be hanging out with his newest bestie Reagan, and we’re glad to have found another trustworthy sitter that loves our dog as much as we do!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dalworthington Gardens walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dalworthington Gardens maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Dalworthington Gardens 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
