“Summer was so easy to work with and clearly has a knack for animals. My skeptical aussies and cat loved her right away. She has a calm demeanor and responds promptly with comments and photos!”
“Kenzie was incredible with our dog Kash! We got great updates every visit and she went above and beyond to make sure he was eating his food (which he typically doesn't do when we are out of town). Thankful she was able to watch our pup and would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: Hi! I’m Brooke, a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I currently share my home with dogs of my own and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. As a former operations executive, reliability, communication, and attention to detail are second nature to me. You can expect prompt updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re trusting someone with a beloved family member. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering most oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and ensuring your pet receives the individualized care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and spend a significant amount of time at home, which means pets in my care are rarely left alone for extended periods. I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, and enrichment activities into each day while maintaining the routines and structure pets are accustomed to at home. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, triggers, and any special care instructions before their stay or visit. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and household rules to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. In my home, pets are provided with a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and opportunities to rest. Introductions to resident pets are done thoughtfully and at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. In a client’s home, I treat both the home and pets with the utmost respect. I follow all care instructions, maintain security by ensuring doors and gates remain secure, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to provide personalized care that helps them feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their time with me.

About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need.

My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
About: Seasoned in dog care, I offer a blend of companionship and responsibility. From tailored walks to playtime, your canine companion's happiness and health are my top priorities. Using positive reinforcement techniques, I foster good behavior, ensuring a well-behaved and happy furry family member. I am a student at USI and have time in between classes to care for pets. During the week my course load varies giving me the opportunity to commit entire days or parts of my day to non academic activities. I have a fenced in yard and 3 playful dogs for your fur baby to play with. I care for my clients home as if it were mine and ensure timely potty breaks and walks for dogs with ample playtime. For cats I make sure they have a fresh litter box and clean water bowls. I strictly follow feeding instructions and dietary guidelines for the animals in my care to ensure the happiest and healthiest pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
