“Samantha is AMAZING! She was so good with our high maintenance kitty and followed all of our directions. She even searched all of her hiding spots so she could check on her and send us a pic. Would recommend!!”
About: I’ve always considered myself an animal lover and I’ve had pets in my life since I was a kid. I grew up with 2 Shorkies and one Havanese. I took care of them for years and I also pet sat for friends, family and neighbors. I love all pets but I have most experience with smaller dogs. I’m currently working part time so I will have loads of time to hang out with your fur babies. I am available for walks and drop ins as needed. I don’t have any pets at the moment but that means that I can give my full attention to your pets instead. I also don’t have a yard currently but I have plenty of places to go on walks. Also I should mention that I am quite allergic to cats so I will not be able to pet sit your kitties but I totally can take care of your dogs.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and future veterinarian, I bring 3.5 years of hands-on veterinary medicine experience as a Veterinary Assistant and a genuine passion for caring for dogs. I’m currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a Pre-Veterinary focus as I work toward my goal of becoming a veterinarian. Growing up on a family dairy farm, I was surrounded by animals from an early age and helped care for many farm dogs. This experience taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of understanding each animal’s individual personality, needs, and routine. During my veterinary career, I’ve cared for and hospitalized numerous dogs, providing attentive monitoring, feeding, cleaning, exercise, enrichment, and comfort. I’m experienced with safely handling dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs, as well as administering oral medications when necessary. Working in a veterinary setting has also helped me become attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall well-being. As a flexible and reliable college student, I’m happy to work around your schedule and follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, shy and nervous, or loves nothing more than cuddling on the couch, I’ll provide patient, compassionate, and individualized care. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll care for your pup like they’re part of my own family! 🐶❤️ My Schedule 🐾 As a full-time college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and night drop-in visits, depending on your pet’s needs and my class schedule. If you feel more comfortable having someone stay with your pet, I’m also happy to spend the night with your dog or cat so they can stay in the comfort of their own home and maintain their normal routine. Most weekends work well for me for pet sitting, and I’m happy to discuss your specific dates and your pet’s schedule. I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs while making sure your furry family member receives plenty of attention, care, and companionship! 🐶🐱❤️ Safety, Trust & Environment 🐾 Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. With 3.5 years of veterinary experience as a Veterinary Assistant, I’m comfortable caring for animals with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines. My veterinary background has taught me to be attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall health. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, comfortable, and able to maintain their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure and tidy, and provide plenty of patience, attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m also comfortable administering oral medications when needed and handling pets who may be nervous, shy, or require extra patience. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved member of your family, and I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱❤️

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.
