About: I’m an animal lover who goes above and beyond while caring for your dog. I always follow the pet owner's directions carefully so that the pet will be happy while they are in my care and the owner will be at ease knowing that their pet is in good hands. I have a family who has years of pet sitting experience. I can come to your house to feed or walk your dog or other pets. I love all animals so I am interested in caring for your cats and other pets. I have many references. I am a college student. My schedule is very flexible, I am available every day at any time to come and take care of your pets. I can be trusted to go to your home and lock the doors and set the alarm. If transporting your dog, I would be confident in putting on harnesses, leashes, and any other items you request.
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I raised and cared for dogs and many other household pets, which taught me responsibility, patience, and attentiveness from a young age. One of my earliest experiences was helping care for a mother dog and her newborn puppies. Since moving to the United States 15 years ago, I have regularly helped friends and neighbors care for their pets while they were away. In my professional life, I have been an elementary school teacher for the past ten years. My experience working with children has strengthened my ability to be patient, observant, dependable, and responsive to individual needs. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention that I would give to a member of my own family. I am a full-time elementary school teacher during the school year. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day to provide care, supervision, companionship, and exercise for dogs. Because I am home for most of the day during summer break, I can accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for while you are away. I live in an end-unit townhouse in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with nearby walking paths, parks, and green spaces. My home provides a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel secure. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I supervise pets closely, keep them on leash during walks unless otherwise directed in a secure area, and make safety my top priority at all times. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I strive to provide individualized care that helps them feel at home.
About: I grew up with dogs and helped raise two litters of bernese mountain dog puppies. Six years ago, I adopted my own dog, Harley, who is a vizsla/catahoula leopard dog mix. Through my experience caring for Harley, I’ve acquired skills to help fearful dogs enjoy walks and adventures while helping dogs learn to feel safe and secure in their environments. I am currently a graduate student and have a very flexible schedule for dog walking! Walking dogs is one of the best parts of my day! I care for my client’s dogs the same as I do my own. Building trust with dogs through patience and kindness will set a strong foundation for many fun times together!

“Tiaesha is outstanding. Her attentiveness, thoughtfulness, and care for our pups provided the piece of mind that all dog owners seek when looking for a dog-walker or dog-sitter. We can’t imagine using anyone else.”
“I was so nervous to leave my new puppy with a stranger ! Ryan was amazing ! She listened to all the puppy stuff I had to say and took great care of my baby ! I will definitely rebook soon !”
“Gary was amazing with the kitties and so friendly that we felt comfortable leaving them for our vacation. We knew the litter boxes would be scooped and the food and water would be checked. My kids especially loved his detailed updates and the photos he sent! I highly recommend Gary!”
About: Ever since my family got our first dog, I absolutely fell in love with them. I offered to always watch after my friend’s dogs whenever their family would travel. I would walk them, play with them, and always send cute updates about their pup! I am currently unemployed this summer so I will have plenty of time to play and walk your pups! I’m typically available any day of the week and I am also open to same-day scheduling. If I am not available I will let you know as soon as possible! Having dogs myself, I have learned how to take properly care for them and understand the importance of keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. I always follow owner’s instructions, make sure pets have plenty of food and water, exercise, and lots of attention!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of different sizes for a few years now. I love animals and since I have none of my own; I thought pet sitting would be the best opportunity for me to meet people, their families and their pets 😄 I am currently working part time now, so I have lots of time to care for and play with your cats & dogs! I love animals and since I have no pets of my own; this is the best opportunity to show my love for them!! I will definitely make sure your pet(s) is cared for with fresh food and water; also treats ( by owner direction. ) I will also make sure that the environment is safe during my visit, and will definitely reach out if I see anything questionable! I will also provide playtime with your pet(s).
About: I've had my own dog for the past 10 years, so I'm very comfortable with the daily responsibilities of caring for pets. I take care of everything from walking and feeding to bathing and basic training. Over the past few years, I've also looked after my neighbors' and family members' pets while they were away, making sure they stayed on their normal routines and got plenty of attention. I understand that every pet is different, and I always make an effort to provide the same level of care that I'd want for my own dog. I work part-time remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day to walk, play with, and care for your pet. I'll make sure they get the attention and care they need while you're away. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions. I make sure the pet is always safe, supervised, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m careful to respect the home, keep everything clean, and communicate if anything comes up while I’m there.

Thalia is so great with our 3 month old puppy! We are very grateful of her help. Her update is always detailed and truly catering to what we are looking at. Thank you! We saw that Kuma likes you a lot! Hope to be able to book you again when we needed assitance.
This is our second time doing a pretty extensive request with Yan, multiple stops a day for various days, and just like last time I really enjoyed having Yan as our sitter! Jack has warmed up to her, she has good communication, and I look forward to the next time she can dog sit for us!

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.
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 Edison 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!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
