“Melissa was excellent! Took great care of all my critters (1 dog 2 kitties) and sent daily updates. Super easy to work with and everyone was happy and healthy when we got home!”
About: New to Rover, Not New to Pet Care! I'm new to Rover, but certainly not new to animals! I've spent nearly 40 years loving, raising, fostering, and caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I can't imagine it any other way. ### Experience That Goes Beyond Traditional Pet Sitting Over the years, I've fostered numerous dogs, cats, kittens, and even rats through Marin Humane. I also volunteered with their veterinary service, where I was responsible for administering medications to dogs and cats receiving veterinary care, including oral medications and injections, as well as providing medicated baths and other treatments. I've bottle-fed newborn kittens, fostered kittens with ringworm, and cared for senior animals requiring additional attention and medications. Through my own pets and volunteer experience, I've learned how important patience, consistency, and understanding each animal's individual needs can be. Dogs, Cats, Chickens & Other Critters! My experience extends beyond dogs and cats. I've also cared for chickens, rabbits, rats, other rodents, and small caged animals. I know that every animal has unique needs, whether that's a dog who loves adventures, a shy cat who needs time to warm up, or a small animal who thrives on a familiar routine. I'm happy to care for households with multiple types of pets, so you don't have to find separate sitters for everyone. Every Pet Has Their Own Personality Some dogs love long walks and outdoor adventures, while others are happiest snuggled up on the couch. Some cats want to be involved in everything you're doing, while others prefer a little independence. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality, habits, and favorite things. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, companionship, medications, or simply a quiet presence, I'll do my best to make their time away from you comfortable and enjoyable. I have a particularly soft spot for senior animals and understand that they often need a slower pace, extra patience, and a little more TLC. Safety, Trust & Communication I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else. My animals have always been family, and I'll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention. I'm comfortable following medication schedules, special feeding instructions, and established routines. I'm also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and energy levels that might indicate something isn't quite right. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are in caring, experienced hands. Let's Meet! Whether you have an energetic puppy, a senior dog, a cuddly cat, backyard chickens, or a collection of little critters, I'd love to meet them! I may be new to Rover, but I bring nearly 40 years of hands-on experience, a great deal of patience, and a lifelong love of animals. Your pets are family, and that's exactly how I'll treat them. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to devote plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I can accommodate different routines and schedules to help keep your pets happy and comfortable. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. I understand how important familiar routines are and take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a calm, loving environment, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing.
About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) My 1 year old will be accompanying me to any potential jobs, so if you know your pet is not good with kids please let me know. She will have as little access as possible either way, she will most likely be in her stroller. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. I would love to help in any way that I can. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.
“Ardelle was fantastic and took great care of our recovering pup and my home while we were away. Would absolutely trust her with Oakley's care again in the future! She was knowledgeable, communicative, & proactive which was very appreciated.”
About: We’ve been raising our golden retriever (3 yrs) and Great Pyrenees & German Shepherd mix (2 yrs, adopted from Seattle Humane!). We always give them good training and mental stimulation, teaching good manners. We also have two senior cats of 7 years old and they get along pretty well. We much enjoy the daily life with our affectionate dogs and cats. I work from home 100% of the time and I usually only go out once a week for groceries. I’m pretty flexible on my daily schedule, so any immediate need of my pets (and yours) can be attended to quickly. Our house is pet safe, and we are very careful not to leave poisonous food on the table where the dogs can reach. We have a fully fenced backyard, which was built this year new. The backyard is about 400 sqft so it’s a great run for any dogs. We have a tall cat tree that can accommodate 3 cats.

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.
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 Easton 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 Easton 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Easton 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.
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.
