About: My dog Winnie is 17, so I’ve had lots of experience as a pet carer! Even though Winnie is a small dog, I have experience pet sitting and walking large dogs. I also love cats and have welcomed them into my home to cat sit over the last several years. I work as an independent artist and bartender, so I have a flexible schedule that gives me availability to take care of your furry friend or feline when you’re working! I am available morning, evening and night on weekdays and morning and afternoons on the weekends. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet by following their routine closely and giving them plenty of attention, care, and supervision. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone’s pet, and I treat every animal with patience, responsibility, and love.
About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has followed into adulthood. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to supervise, feed, and play with their pets. I pride myself on compassionate, reliable care for your beloved fur baby! I have a flexible work schedule during the week with Fridays and Weekends off. Which allows me plenty of time to care for your pets! I am a punctual and responsible, and I care for my clients pets as if they are my own! I engage with them and attentively oversee their behaviors in order to anticipate and tend to their needs. Communication is key, I provide regular updates to owners regarding their pets well-being while they’re under my care, including pictures and videos. It is extremely important to me to respect my clients household rules and follow their instructions.
“This was our first time using Rover and were so lucky to find Courtney to care for our cat. She was professional, communicative, thorough and went above and beyond her pet sitting duties. We highly recommend her.”
“Zoe took great care of my 2 dogs and provided me with peace of mind while I was away. Her excellent communication and thorough caretaking skills allowed me not to worry at all. I highly recommend her!”
“As always, Ava is great with our cats! We always come home to happy cats and a clean home, communication is great and we really appreciate the photos while we’re away”
“Kayla did daily checks in for my three cats while I was away and everything went perfectly. We met up a few days before, and she sent me updates each day with pictures. She’s an excellent communicator! I look forward to working with her again. Thanks Kayla!”
About: I have grown up around dogs and am a loyal dog person! Our beloved 12 year old lab just passed away recently so our family is looking to help other people take care of their dogs! I have two children who are used to dogs and love them. I work from home in my own schedule so have lots of time to make a fuss of your pup! I am up early and love to go out for a morning walk. We have a fenced in large backyard and lots of nice places for leashed walks. We follow the schedule and needs of the dog to make sure they are comfortable. We do have a split level home so senior dogs who struggle with steps may be tricky.
About: I have a B.S. in animal science with the goal of going to veterinary school. I have experience as a vet assistant in a small animal hospital, as well as a variety of animal experiences. I was a part of a college club training future guiding eyes for the blind dogs, where I also became a certified sitter for Guiding Eyes for the blind. I owned and cared for a Shih Tzu for 15 years and have watched friends' and family's dogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your dogs! I'm available all day on weekends and on Wednesdays. I am currently available on Tuesdays and Thursdays after 11:30 am. Your pet will be well supervised with plenty of affection. I have a bachelor's degree in animal science and experience as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with different needs, personalities, and medical routines.
“Allison was wonderful and Milo was happy and obviously well taken care of while we were away. Allison also shared lots of photos during each visit which is much appreciated! Thank you again for accommodating us and Milo at the last minute so that we could enjoy a fun weekend away!”
“Kelsey saved the day when our usual sitter was unavailable on short notice and she took on a week of drop-in visits for us. She was reliable and took great care of our dog, Bear.”
“Ginia Was amazing with our dog Ponyboy. She is a real animal lover and connected with our dog walking him and playing fetch and provide lots of cuddles. We are very fortunate to find such a loving caretaker for our dog and will use her again!”
“First off, this was my first time using this app/service and was nervous hoping to find someone who would treat our dog like their own. Madison was absolutely fantastic. We met her a day before and our dog took an immediate liking to her. Right away we felt a sense of comfort knowing our dog would be in good hands. The following day Madison checked on Kygo (our dog) throughout the day and communicated with us each visit. She gave us a detailed report on her visit and ample photos of our dog playing and happy. It is such a great feeling knowing there are responsible and caring people who can give you peace of mind when leaving your dog home for the day. I HIGHLY recommend Madison to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter. She was fantastic and we will 100000% be using her in the future. Oh, and she took in packages for us… going above and beyond! Thank you Madison!”

We have a dog of our own - a friendly, small mixed breed rescue.
“Taylor dropped-in on my 2-year-old (very anxious) cat for a week during a difficult time, and was AMAZING!!! She’s flexible, reliable, kind, easy to communicate with, and did a great job. I will 100% be booking with Taylor again next time I go out of town, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable cat-sitter. Thank you, Taylor!!!”

Chrissy was fantastic! She took great care of our cat, Bella for 5 days while we were away. Our cat can be very shy, but they quickly became friends and we are very happy we found Chrissy to look after her. Chrissy was a responsive communicator the entire time and we’d recommend her to anyone.
Vanessa is fabulous ! Comfortable with a larger dog , knowledgeable about breeds and dog care in general! She easily recognized all my dog's "language" and had him playing and earning a bell rub with in no time ! Vanessa let the dog out and fed him and all was tidied up when she left and my pup was exercised and content to go to sleep ! Our experience was terrific .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a East Northport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
