About: I have over 6 years of experience with professional in-home pet care, along with a lifetime of caring for my own dogs. I am also certified through the PPCA! I understand how important it is to give your pets the same love and attention I give my own! I truly enjoy spending time with pets, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship. My goal is to be a little part of your family and provide that peace of mind while you are away! Pet care is my full time job! My husband is home for my fur babies every night and morning if I need to be at overnights. And I make sure I have time to check in on my babies during the day if have a full day! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention through walks, playtime, and companionship, always practicing proper leash etiquette and respecting feeding or medication instructions. I create a calm, caring environment where pets feel secure, whether they’re playful, need a little extra patience, or are in delicate stages of life, so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I have 3 dogs and one cat of my own! I’ve had two of the dogs since they were puppies, and my cat since he was a kitten. I’ve also pet sit for my neighbors many times! My three dogs are all chihuahuas, but i’ve had experience with bigger dogs too. I am currently working part time, but I’m planning on going full time with pet sitting! Once summer is over I will be going to school but early in the morning, from around 8 to 12. So I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets ! I will not bring your pets to my own home, because my dogs are not very friendly to other pets. I will be able to go to your home and take care of your pet(s) there!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14. I love all animals and have experience with all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have 5 dogs at home so I’m used to chaos! I also started working with farm animals when I was 12 so I have experience working with horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and ect. I currently work only two days at my church, so I have plenty of time to play with all the dogs and cats! I will make sure to communicate with you when those times are and if I leave during the day. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around in. All of my dogs are crate-trained, and they go up at night. During the day I leave them outside or they lounge around inside. All my dogs are allowed on the furniture.

Pet Sitting/Care is currently my full-time job. I'm always accepting new house sits and drops ins, l make sure to update my calendar every couple of days. I do like to do meet & greets before any new sits/drop ins, even if it's just a quick video chat. I don't currently offer boarding services but If i did, I would make sure to your pet is as comfortable as possible in my home. In clients homes, I will play with your pets, and take them on as many walks as needed for them to burn off energy. I will feed on time and keep your pets schedule as normal as possible.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats growing up. I’ve had four dogs at the same time and I have always had a cat growing up. I love taking care of cats and playing with them. I think animals deserve love and affection and care. I’ve taken care of young animals and I’ve also taken care of senior animals. I currently have two cats who are 13 years old and 3 years old. I currently work full time, so weekends would be best or after work. Fridays I work from home so I’m fully flexible. Overnights stays would have to be weekends unless it’s close to my work then it’s possible for longer stays I have a home that my cats can roam around and everything is pet friendly. They don’t get into anything that is harmful for them
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 10, currently we have a 12 year old dog, a 5 year old dog, and a 1 year old kitten. I’m very comfortable with cats, they’re very sweet. I’ve been dog walking for the past few years and worked with dogs of all kinds. I’m a teacher so I’m off for the summer! I’m pretty much available any day!

I’m available anytime and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs, including early mornings, midday visits, evenings, or last-minute requests. Your pets will be treated like part of my daily life, getting plenty of attention, love, and reliable care while you’re away. I provide attentive, personalized care for each pet in the comfort of their home, adjusting my routine based on the service that you book. For drop in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter cleaning, and spend quality time with your pet- whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. For dogs walking, I ensure safe, engaging walks tailored to your dogs energy level, followed by water and a quick check in before I leave. For pet sitting or extended stays, I maintain your pets normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, exercise, medication(if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dog Sitter! If you're looking for a top-notch dog sitter, look no further than Pierce. He is reliable, caring, and attentive. My dog absolutely adores him and my cat didn’t completely hate him (which is actually a great compliment 😆)! It's clear that Pierce has a genuine love for animals and it's such a relief to know that my pet is being looked after by someone so trustworthy and dedicated. Highly recommended!”

I will follow your daily routines and rules. I love walking and can handle any situation that may come along. I am very big on positive reinforcement.
About: I am a relief licensed veterinary technician and stay at home mom that does pet sitting on the side!! Petsitting is what I do full time now! Most of my business (90%) is drop in pet visits while owners are away on vacation, I do however offer limited (meaning 1 client at a time) free roam boarding in my own home unless I step away from the house then they are kenneled for their safety. They are able to exercise and go potty on 3/4 acre pipe fenced/no climb yard. I have 17 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses. 6 years of experience with exotics such as reptiles, birds and pocket pets. I can care for your pet inside my home or can travel to the client's home. I have experience administering SQ fluids, oral and topical medications, injections, and bandages. In my world, the pets are members of the family and I care for them as if they were my own, giving them the love and attention they are accustomed to receiving from their family. I also provide other services if needed at NO CHARGE such as watering plants, bringing in the mail/newspaper, checking pool levels, etc. Petsitting, boarding, and travel grooming services is what I do full time if Im not substituting at the school! They will have frequent potty breaks to eliminate any accients. I have a pipe fence with no climb on 3/4 acre of land for them to roam and play when supervised.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
