“Meredith took such great care of my pets while I was away! I came home to a clean space with all four fur babies happy, healthy, and chilling. She provided regular updates and photos while I was away. I highly recommend booking Meredith for your pet care needs, five star experience”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds, including my Yorkie puppy and several senior cats. I provide daily attention, training, exercise, and care for medical or behavioral needs. I’m comfortable with skittish, anxious, or energetic pets, and I treat every animal with patience, love, and consistency. Pets aren’t just animals to me—they’re family, and I’m committed to keeping them happy, healthy, and safe. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I am currently not working, so I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent care, playtime, and attention throughout the day. My main commitments are taking my daughter to and from school, appointments, and interviews, but I plan my time carefully to ensure pets always receive the care and supervision they need. I enjoy creating a reliable, loving routine for every animal I care for. I care for pets with attention, consistency, and compassion, whether in my home or the client’s home. I provide feeding, exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation tailored to each pet’s needs. For pets with medical or behavioral needs, I follow specific instructions carefully, administer medications if required, and monitor their health and well-being closely. I ensure their environment is safe, clean, and comfortable, and I give them plenty of love and attention so they feel secure and happy while in my care.
“Charlotte was amazing! She was so caring and attentive. She kept me up-to-date during my trip. Additionally, I had a family emergency before I left and she was so flexible and understanding of the situation. It was a huge comfort to have her there while I was away.”
“Breana has watched Arrow for me two weekends and has been excellent! Loving all the pics and videos! She accommodated a last minute add on day so very much appreciate that. Will book with her as long as she’d like to keep coming!”
About: I love hanging out with animals and keeping them company. I am caring and respectful. I believe all animals are precious and deserve love and respect. I work full time but flexible hours. I respect animals and will make sure they are taken care of and treated right. I will also leave notes and take pictures for the pet parent. I would play with them, treat them with kindness, care for them. I also would protect them if needed and send pictures and videos to their owners.
“Jennifer did a great job with my pups. Most importantly she made sure my oldest received her insulin shot ,which was my biggest concern. The dogs were well cared for and my house was as clean as I had left it. So glad I found her!”
“Had great communication with Cara throughout our trip. She took care of them and carefully listened to our instructions. The dogs approved of her and that was the big thing!!! She did a great job and will use her in the future again.”
About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have 4 years of experience working as a veterinary technician, and 10+ years taking care of animals which has given me hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs and cats and taught me how to understand their individual personalities and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.🐾❤️ I will always try to be very flexible with my hours and whatever is easiest for your schedule, my goal is to do this full time. I do have a fenced in yard and two fur baby’s that would keep your animals company while you are away. I am willing for your animals to either stay at my house or to stay at your house or check in. Whatever you prefer.
“Carolyn did an amazing job. Our pups loved her. She took 2 of our 3 dogs on walks daily. Everything we requested was followed with no issues. Look no further for someone to look after your furbabies.”
About: I grew up with many pets and have since done many pet sits throughout the years. Your fur babies will be soothed by my singing, reiki and massage. My time is currently very flexible. Every day is different but some days I’ll be away from the house for a few hours to go give sessions and run errands. I create a loving a safe environment for your pets. I listen to what is needed and respond with care. I look forward to being with your fur babies.
About: A luxury stay for your pets, accompanied by 2 energetic, loving Corgis. Not only will your pets receive a lot of attention, they will also make two new friends. With years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I offer daily walks and live just two minutes from Bell Rock, which is one of my favorite spots to take dogs for safe, stimulating, and scenic adventures. Whether it’s trail walks, feedings, playtime, or simply comforting company, I treat every pet like my own. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making your furry family member feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around my visits and walks to make sure each pet gets the attention and time they deserve. Whether it’s early morning feedings, afternoon walks, or evening check ins, I’m consistent, flexible, and always show up ready to give your pet the best care possible. Being around animals is the best part of my day. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as consistent and stress free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or playtime. I also keep your home tidy and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved in their familiar environment. Communication is key, so I always send regular updates, photos, and check ins to give you peace of mind.
“Em did such a great job with Winnie! She has some anxiety with storms and Em was able to handle all of quirkiness. Em also house sat for me and everything was just great when I came home.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have four of my own, so caring for pets is something that comes naturally to me. Through the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities, and I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to friends, family and others when they’ve needed a reliable sitter. I currently work a low-stress, remote job on weekdays, so I can be attentive to your pets for most of the day, whether it be taking them outside, playing with them, taking them on walks or whatever they need. When caring for pets, I make it a priority to keep them feel safe and comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, whether it be feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications and any special care requirements. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and preferences to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dewey
We took a last minute trip over the holidays and Kitty was more than flexible to accommodate us and stay with the boys at the house. Chip and Jordy had a great time with her and were really mellow when we returned home. We always are relaxed on our trips when we know Kitty is taking care of them!

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.
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 Dewey 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 Dewey 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 Dewey 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
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.
