“Adrienne watched Quincy for us over the weekend, and she did a wonderful job! She provided thoughtful updates every morning and evening, which I really appreciated. As a dog parent, it’s so reassuring to know how both your dog and sitter are doing while you’re away. During one of their walks, she also handled an unexpected situation with our neighbor, who wasn’t fully aware of their surroundings, and safely guided Quincy through it. I really appreciated her attentiveness and care. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Quincy this weekend! We’ll see you in October! 🐾”
“Noa was great! I’m usually pretty skeptical about leaving my dog with anyone. I found Noa on Rover and it was the right fit. I was gone for over a week and had her house sit as my dog doesn’t like new surroundings. He was not only well taken care of, but I received updates and pictures. She was very responsive with any questions I had while I was away. I came home to a happy dog and a clean apartment. I would definitely book her again!!”
“Jennifer is amazing! We booked her services with little notice when our previous sitter canceled on us. We were headed down to TN to get married and we’re worried about leaving our two labs with a new person. Jennifer was amazing and our dogs loved her immediately. It was so nice getting daily updates and pictures to keep us reassured all was well! Would recommend to anyone, and especially those who are like us and have high expectations when it comes to our pets!”
“Hannah was wonderful! Our boy can be a little particular and she handled everything with such calm and understanding. She was communicative and extremely flexible. We were so lucky to have found her!”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young. I grew up caring for various pets, including fish, birds, and cats. During my studies in Turkey and while living with family, I cared for dogs and helped raise them hands on. I treat every pet with genuine love, patience, and attentiveness, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be present and attentive. Whether it's feeding, playing, or regular check in, I can easily adapt my daily routine to fit your pet's exact needs, ensuring they receive constant care, love, and attention throughout the day Pet safety, comfort, and well being remain absolute top priorities. A calm, secure, and loving environment is provided by closely following specific instructions regarding feeding, routines, and daily care
“Rochelle is the best! Stayed in our home and took care of our two dogs. She sent pictures daily and left the house immaculate. I felt comfortable with Rochelle the moment I met her! Thank you Rochelle!”
“We recently worked with Tracy in Frederick, MD to watch out two pups while we were away for about a week. This was the first time we asked someone who wasn't a family or immediate friend to watch our home and pups, and we would welcome her into our home again! She did an excellent job keeping us in the loop while sending adorable pictures of them playing in the yard and hanging around the house. She established a quick bond with our dogs, one of which is on anxiety medications, and it was clear they got along with Tracy well during her stay. Her support gave us peace of mind while we traveled, and we look forward to working with her agin.”
About: I've raised 2 daughters to adulthood and 7 cats over the years. I've dog sat for neighbors and answered local ads for sitting/walks. I have experience giving cats medicine and cleaning up messes.I love animals! I'm currently a stay home Mom looking for a flexible income while getting excerise and being my own boss. I use to own a business so I'm organized, responsible and dependable. I currently have 2 cats who I feed daily, one gets medicine mixed into her dinner wet food and she's on a diet. My other cat is free fed dry food all day because she has a fast metabolism and is a perfect weight, plus she gets wet food for dinner. Their litter boxes get cleaned every other day. So, I'm use to special feeding needs of fur babies.
About: I've dogsat for weeks at a time for multiple families over multiple years! I also have had several cats, dogs, and lizards throughout my life. I am currently not working so I am available when needed! I love walks and park trips. If you’re in Whittier or know a place in your neighborhood there’s large fields to play in! It depends on the needs of the client, my most common household I look after, they are showdogs so they have specific meal criteria and excersize. I've handled pregnant cats and dogs. My cats I have now are pretty chill, they play outside sometimes but mostly just sit by the window and we play with their toys.
“Brittany stayed at our house with our 2 dogs and took excellent care of everything. Great communication, lots of pictures. Followed all instructions regarding care for the dogs and the house. Returned home to happy dogs and a clean house.”
About: I’m retired with lots of flexibility, and care for one dog at a time—so your pup gets my full attention! I specialize in skittish, senior, and special-needs dogs. A client once called me The Pet Whisperer, and I strive to live up to that every day. Each stay begins with a Meet & Greet to ensure a great fit. I stay current on pet safety, first aid, and behavior through professional training. Caring for animals has been my passion since childhood, and friends and family regularly trust me with their pets—from daily walks to extended stays. My schedule adapts to your pet’s needs. I care for one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention, affection, and cuddles. I never rush—each visit includes time to bond, play, and build trust. Walks and drop-ins are unhurried, with extra time for love and connection. Pets are welcome on the furniture—just please ensure their nails are trimmed. Currently accepting recurring walks only. I respect your pet’s routine and emotional needs, keeping a detailed log and sharing photos or videos for your peace of mind. A couple I’ve worked with for 3 years recently traveled to Europe, and my daily updates helped them feel confident their dog was happy, safe, and relaxed.
“This was our first time having anyone other than family watch our dog. Also, the first time having someone stay in our home. David was excellent with our dog as well as respectful of our home. The house was as we left it with no mess or anything. Very appreciative of a great first experience for in home dog sitting. Thanks, David!”
“Heidi tool great care of my pup, Felix. She was very organized and made sure she had a list of questions to fully understand his routine before I went out of town. She made sure to give me updates throughout the day and was responsive to all my inquiries. I highly recommend Heidi for any of your pet care needs!”
About: Hello and thanks for reading my profile! I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was a little girl, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. Currently, I have a Great Dane of my own (his name is Saint) and regularly babysit three wonderful dogs (two goofy Mastiffs and one sassy little Basset Hound. l’m comfortable with everything from high-energy playtime to gentle senior care, and I treat every pet like family. I currently work 7:30am - 4pm on the weekdays. My office is pet friendly, so I can bring your dog to work with me if you need me during the week. Otherwise I can be available for evenings during the week. My weekends are usually completely free though! I make sure all pets are comfortable, well fed and get play time in. Dogs aren’t meant to be idle all day, and as an active person I love to walk dogs and have some playtime in the backyard. My pets and my client’s pets always get spoiled rotten with cuddles and kisses. <3

About: My family got our first dog when I was four. Since then I have always had a dog. Right now I have a beagle mix, Maltese, and chocolate lab puppy. I have watched both dogs and cats. I am free on the weekends, but I can also pop in during the week in the afternoon around two or later. Occasionally before then. I pay close attention to the details of my instructions when I watch pets. I also like to send undated and pictures to the owners.
“We had Alyssa at our house for a week and our dogs seemed to really like her. When we got back they weren’t agitated or anxious or anything. I loved the pictures and updates she sent too. She even noticed one of my dogs was having bad allergies and let me know about it so I could tell her where the allergy medicine was.”
About: I have over 20 years of personal pet experience as well as about 3 years of professional volunteering experience with the human society and other organizations .

I enjoy the outdoors and taking my dog Mickey on hikes and long walks through the local parks so he can enjoy all the smells and stretch his legs. If given the chance to spend quality time with your pets, I will personally make sure your pet is happy and loved while in my care. I can't wait to meet you and look forward to being your pets best friend when you're away! Recently moved to the area, working from my home and phone. This gives me the availability to spend more time with your dog as well as my own. I always make sure all doors are closed and everything is left the way it was before I arrived. I keep my dogs on their leash before and after leaving and arriving back from a walk to keep them safe.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Discovery-Spring Garden
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Hannah! She took care of our Boh as if he were her own, making sure he was fed, let outside to use the restroom, and given plenty of love and snuggles while we were away. ❤️ Hannah followed all of our directions exactly as written, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she also took great care of our home while we were gone. When an unforeseen circumstance came up and we needed to add an extra day, she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. It was clear that Boh was happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. We would absolutely recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter. We definitely hope to have her watch Boh again in the future! 🐾
Natalie sent us pics every day, took her on her walks and also have our house in perfect condition when we come home, with all sheets and towels washed and dried. Our flight was several hours late and she was able to stay longer than she planned. Always a great experience and Luna looks forward to seeing her.
James has been watching my dogs for years now (maybe 8-9 years), and he is absolutely phenomenal. It means so much to have a dog sitter you can truly trust, not only with your beloved pets, but also in your home. He takes wonderful care of both my dogs, one of whom is elderly, needs medication and extra attention, and requires very careful handling around other dogs and people due to reactivity. James manages their needs with so much patience, understanding, and grace. He is just amazing. I highly, highly recommend James. He’s the best!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Discovery-Spring Garden 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 Discovery-Spring Garden 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.
Tip: 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 Discovery-Spring Garden 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.
