“Fantastic drop in dog sitter. Always on time for drop ins and provided great notes and feedback about how he was behaving, eating, going to the bathroom and interacting with her. She also provided some very helpful tips. Can't say enough good things about how she helped with my older and more challenging dog. Will definitely be relying on her for future drop in visits.”

“Great communication! She was quick to respond to any message or question we had. Very professional and our dog had no issue warming up to her. Would highly recommend! Plan to use her again in the future.”

I recently started a new job, and was nervous about going into the office and leaving my buddy at home. Sheila has been absolutely AMAZING for my Mac. I come home to a sleepy dog, instead of an anxious dog. They've given me complete ease of mind, and I couldn't recommend them more!

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
