“We had a short notice trip and thankfully we're able to find Anthony available. After a meet and greet with our 2 adult dogs and 1 puppy we knew it would go well. Even our puppy who is a little hesitant of new people loved him immediately. Anthony did good with sending pictures, keeping the house clean, and making sure to send updates.”
“Malia is fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about how things would go, but once I met Malia and saw her interact with my dog, I felt at ease. Malia communicated with me often and did a wonderful job. I highly recommend Malia!”
About: I grew up around dogs my entire life! My dad used to breed rottweiler puppies! I also have a puppy of my own (she’s 1.5 now so not so puppy) but I am experienced! I got her all on my own so all of her training was with me. She earned her good citizens certificate! I know that every dog has a routine and when I come into a home I try to mimic that routine as best as i can so that the dogs feel completely comfortable I currently work from 7am to about 2pm. But I am available to let them out before work and then once I am out of work my full attention is on your pets! I also have weekends off and when pet sitting I stay home aside from a quick trip to get food or something I do not offer at my home services. I unfortunately have 4 dogs in my home and it is already so chaotic! But I will absolutely take care of your pet in your home and respect your home like my own! At a meet and greet I try to get the dogs exact routine memorized so that while your away he feels more comfortable and hopefully safe with me. I love to play fetch with dogs or tug o war. i’m also all for snuggles!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. Family and friends have never hesitated to trust me as their dog sitter! I’m able to work with any dog or cat, whether that be puppies and kittens or your senior animal! I’m currently earning my master’s degree in Athletic Training, so I pet sit while I complete my program. My schedule is pretty open and flexible, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care. I keep my Rover calendar updated and communicate clearly about my availability so you always know when I’m available to help. I live in a clean, pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment with my fiancé, our dog, and two cats. Safety is always my top priority, so introductions to our pets are done slowly and only if everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions. Dogs are always leashed outside, and I provide a calm, supervised environment where they can feel safe and at home.
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and currently care for two of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I also help care for my sister’s cat when needed. What sets me apart is that I have experience caring for a senior dog, including giving oral medication, joint supplements, and applying eye and ear medication as needed. I’m also comfortable teaching basic tricks and engaging dogs mentally through training and play. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very responsible, reliable, and patient, and I always treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on most weekdays, as well as weekends. I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two dogs of my own, so caring for pets is already part of my daily life. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and keeping a consistent routine for pets. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away. I have experience with crate training and can easily crate dogs if needed, as well as follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. I currently have two friendly dogs, so I’m familiar with managing multiple pets in a calm and controlled environment. I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated like family.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. I have frequent pet sit my dads pets and friends pets as well. I recently adopted rescue cat from shelter. I currently work 8am to 5pm from Mondays to Fridays with weekends off. Most pets would be able to handle being alone for 8 hours at least. I live in a home with my parents for temporary housing. My parents own two cats while I own one myself. Always willing to go to the distance for the animals sake. I spoiled them with kisses, loves and cuddles. Always sending pics or videos to the owner daily
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life! I always had cats and dogs growing up, and as I got older I ended up caring for lizards, fish, horses, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more! I work a very flexible full time job, and work from home when I want to, so I am very flexible! I am able to leave work and come back whenever if I am in office (besides the occasional meetings). I am willing to come to anyone’s home to care for any pets. I am pretty adaptable! I have (unfortunate) experience with dealing with unexpected events such as skunk encounters.
About: Since I was a child, I have been an animal nerd. My passion for animals is only matched by my deep devotion to caring for them and maximizing their welfare. I have greater than 20 years of experience taking care of animals. I have experience working in a dog kennel, and a humane society, as well as extensive experience doing in-home visits. While most of my experience is with dogs and cats, I have taken care of a variety of breeds, sizes and ages! I love to make an animal comfortable and slowly gain their trust through consistent action and patience. I have experience administering medications, trimming nails, and basic grooming. I work in the research field full-time during the week, but caring for pets fills my cup outside of work. I'm free weekends and after 5:00PM on weekdays. I love to spend time with animals. I care for pets outside of my home at this time due to limited space and apartment living. I prioritize your pet's safety by making sure they are secured and monitored carefully. I take pride in getting to know the pets I work with so that I can identify if something seems out of the norm for them. Confidentiality & privacy are important to me.
“This was our first time booking with Juhi, and she was absolutely amazing! Great communication, punctual, and very dependable. I had lots of questions since I had never used the website before. She was so helpful and patient in answering my questions. Juhi was great with our dog, and I think he was a little bummed to see us instead of her when we got home from our trip! We will absolutely be asking her to watch our dog in the future, and we highly recommend her!”
About: I have been caring and training dogs for over a decade, including experience with large breeds. I am especially experienced with Newfoundlands, Newfoundland-Poodle mixes, Goldendoodles, Dogo Argentinos, and Vizslas. I am comfortable handling strong, energetic dogs and always approach animals with patience, respect, and understanding their individual needs. As a healthcare graduate student, I bring responsibility, attention to detail, and caring communication to every pet I care for. In addition, I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so I'm happy to provide long walks and structured exercise for pets who need to burn off some energy. Come May, I'll have a flexible schedule as I complete the classroom portion of my Doctor of Physical Therapy program. With a lighter schedule and no part-time work commitments, I'll have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to walks, drop-in visits, and giving your pets the attention they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain secure handling during walks, and supervise pets closely at all times. I respect each home's rules and routines to ensure consistency for the pet. I am attentive to behavioral cues and changes in health, and I communicate promptly with owners if anything seems out of the ordinary.
“Colleen did a great job! She sent pictures and updates as requested, and went above and beyond in her level of care for my cat. She was very friendly and professional, and my cat really likes her. I will gladly work with her again if I go out of town.”
About: Hi! My name is Brianna! I am 19 year old pre-vet student. I aspire to be a large animal vet someday. I have experience from fish to horses and all in between! I currently work part time, I really ned a way to spend my time while not working or at school and what better way than to spend it with animals? I have experience with many different species and breeds so I am comfortable in most if not all situations. I am attentive and careful so you would not need to worry.
“I have a high anxiety pupper and Malena is great with him! I also have a dog who trusts no one but seems to like her! She was on time and took tons of pictures during her drop in! I will for sure use Malena in the future.”

Gwendellyn took care of our dog and two cats, and she was fantastic! She went out of her way to make sure we were happy and communicated clearly the whole time. We could tell all of our pets were comfortable and happy with her. We're so grateful and look forward to booking her again. Highly recommend!
Robert was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, and knowing that Ellie was being so well cared for completely put my mind at ease while we were away. He was incredibly kind, dependable, easy to communicate with, and sent us updates and pictures after every visit so we always knew how she was doing. What really stood out was how much genuine time and attention he gave Ellie. He played lots of fetch with her, which is her absolute favorite, gave her plenty of love and attention, made sure she was fed and had treats, and really took the time to let her get comfortable with him. You can tell Robert genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and takes caring for someone else’s pet seriously. We came home to a happy, well loved dog, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will absolutely book with Robert again and would recommend him without hesitation. If you’re considering booking him, do it! Your pet will be in great hands. Thank you so much, Robert, for taking such wonderful care of Ellie!
This was our first time not using a traditional boarding, and Megan was amazing. Loved getting the updates at each drop in, being able to communicate with her, and just the general comfort the pets had with her. Made us feel a little more at ease knowing our fur babies were in the comfort of their own home and someone that felt comfortable with was spending quality time with them 3 times a day. Will definitely trust our babies to Megan again.
Outstanding experience with Sheri. She took care of both our dogs — a high-energy 1-year-old yellow lab and our 14-year-old chocolate lab who needs a bit more attention — and handled both without any issues. Sheri went above and beyond in ways we didn't ask for and didn't expect. She wiped the dogs down every time they came inside, which matters a lot with a younger lab who gets into everything. She also picked up after them in the yard — never asked, just did it. That kind of stuff you notice. We came home to two happy dogs and a clean space. No complaints at all. I would absolutely book Sheri again and recommend her to anyone.

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.
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 DeWitt 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!

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.

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 .
