About: Hi! I’m Rachel, owner and founder of RogiBear Pet Sitting Services. I am lifelong animal lover with a passion for providing top-notch care for pets of all shapes and sizes. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals—both my own and those of friends, family, and clients. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. I’m also comfortable with administering medications, handling special dietary needs, and following any specific routines or training methods you have in place. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I strive to offer peace of mind through constant communication, photo updates, and personalized care. Let’s meet and see if I’m the right fit for your pet’s needs—I’d love to help keep their tail wagging (or purr going) while you’re away! I can offer same day care but please reach out to me first. I work part-time in the mornings on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, which means I’ve got lots of free time to hang out with your pets! Whether they need a walk, playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’m around and happy to help. With a flexible schedule and a big heart for animals, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. I always use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe areas during walks, and closely monitor each pet’s behavior and comfort level. Whether it’s keeping an eye on the weather or double-checking gates and doors, I make sure every pet stays safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I communicate clearly and promptly with pet parents, provide updates with photos, and follow all care instructions to the letter. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being. I care deeply about the environment and try to minimize my impact during walks and visits. I always clean up after pets, properly dispose of waste, and reuse supplies when safe and appropriate. I also support local parks and green spaces so pets can enjoy clean, healthy environments for their adventures.

I am very flexable. I do not currently have a full time job and only am busy when my step children need to be taken to school in the mornings, but even that only takes an hr out of my day.

About: I’m very caring and attentive to all animals and I am here to look after and play with them when you are unavailable. I have plenty of experience watching dogs, cats, and even reptiles on several different occasions for a few years now and I will never get tired of meeting new ones! I have a passionate love for animals and believe they deserve the best care possible. I’ve been looking for a job and came to the conclusion this is the best for me. Getting paid to care and tend to animals and even just hanging and chilling with them doesn’t even seem like a job to me but more like a fun time. As of right now, I have all the time in the world to look after pets and be their friend. Contact me whenever you need me! :) I live in a safe and friendly neighborhood. I do not have a fence but and perfectly fine taking dogs out on the leash for the bathroom or just for a walk. If you have any special requests or advice when you need me to look after them I am all ears and waiting for the details.

I also have a Russian Tortoise named Jack! I am looking to make some extra money on my 4 days off from my full time job. If it goes well I might switch to full time.

About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life, from tiny 8-pound Chihuahuas to 180-pound gentle giants like Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’m comfortable with all sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and support. I also have extensive experience with cats and currently have three of my own, so I understand the routines, behaviors, and special attention that both dogs and cats need to feel safe and happy. Over the years, I’ve helped care for a wide range of pets for family, friends, and clients, and I always treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, medications, or simply offering companionship, I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels loved and well-cared for while their owners are away. I do work full-time, but I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and consistent pet care. I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which means I’m available throughout the day for check-ins, walks, feedings, and companionship. From Friday through Monday, I can visit pets during the day as needed. On the days I’m in the office, I’m still available for early-morning and after-work visits, making it easy to keep your pet’s routine on track. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a long walk, or extra attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for no matter what day of the week it is. My top priorities are safety, consistency, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s established routines so they feel secure, and I take time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort levels before introducing anything new. In a client’s home, I keep their space exactly as I found it while maintaining a clean, pet-safe environment. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, food and medications are given exactly as directed, and any special instructions are followed closely. I’m attentive to behavior and energy levels, and I take extra care with senior pets, shy pets, or pets who need a slower, gentler approach. I’m respectful of your home, your pet’s routine, and your expectations, and I always communicate clearly with updates, photos, and anything I notice during my visits. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away—and that you feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Douglas Grove
Casey has been absolutely wonderful with my very timid doodle. She cares for his needs and he’s opened up to her in the days that she is there. Casey came to the home and met with Tod before hand and made sure she asked enough questions to understand him and his quirks. Official did my first rebook with Casey after a first week of great service.

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.
