About: Growing up on a farm, caring for animals has always been a natural and important part of my life. From a young age, I learned the responsibility, patience, and dedication that come with raising and caring for animals of all kinds. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. My experience has taught me that every pet has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. Whether it’s providing exercise, preparing meals, offering companionship, or simply making sure they feel safe and loved, I treat every animal with the same care and attention I would give my own. One of my biggest advantages is that I work remotely, allowing me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I understand how important peace of mind is when trusting someone with your pets, and my goal is to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to spend plenty of time caring for your pets throughout the day. Unlike a traditional work schedule that requires me to be away for extended periods, working remotely allows me to provide regular attention, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, and playtime. I’m able to incorporate pet care naturally into my daily routine and can accommodate different schedules and individual needs. Whether your pet enjoys being active or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to provide a comfortable and attentive environment. I understand that consistency is important for animals, and I do my best to maintain their normal routines while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. Growing up on a farm taught me the importance of being attentive, responsible, and understanding the different needs and behaviors of animals. I believe every pet deserves a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or providing companionship throughout the day, I make it a priority to follow your instructions, respect established routines, and pay close attention to their individual needs. I also understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I value open communication and am happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
“Samantha dropped in on our new puppy for a few weeks while we were at work and did an amazing job! She was great at communicating and our pups loved her! We will definitely use her again in the future when we are in need of a sitter. :)”
“Analiese is prompt, sends pictures and is great with my puppy! He's not quite potty trained and needs attention, so her drop ins are just what we need when I have to be gone long stretchs!”
About: About Me 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life and career for over a decade. I have 10+ years of professional experience working with animals as a Veterinary Technician, and I currently work as a mobile veterinary technician, providing hands-on care to pets in the comfort of their own homes. I’ve also been proudly caring for pets through Rover since 2015, giving me years of experience caring for dogs and cats with all different personalities, needs, ages, and medical considerations. I genuinely live for what I do. I have a deep love and compassion for animals, and caring for them is more than just a job to me…it’s something I truly enjoy and feel fulfilled doing. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and respect I would want for my own. With my veterinary background, you can feel confident knowing your pet is in experienced, knowledgeable, and loving hands.

About: Hi! I’m Patience ! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets—ranging from energetic puppies to senior cats—I treat every pet like part of my family. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets need tailored care to feel comfortable while you're away. A typical day in my care includes a morning walk, plenty of play sessions with chew toys, and quiet cuddles in the evening. For seniors, I focus on gentle, short walks and ensuring they have soft bedding and a calm environment. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing for frequent potty breaks every 2–3 hours and mid-day play sessions. I usually take a longer walk in the late afternoon to help them burn off energy before dinner. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure we are a perfect match. I only communicate through Rover for your security and mine. I am highly observant of behavior, ensuring pets are never put in stressful situations and that their environment is secure.

“Shannon went above and beyond for our fearful reactive pitbull. She did a free meet and greet prior and the fact that he had bit someone previously during a recent storm did not scare her. Our dog ended up loving her - she was so patient and gave us great updates and did exactly what we asked each time she came over. Would 10/10 recommend! Super calming presence with large dogs.”

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 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
