About: I’ve taken care of my friend’s pets since I was 20. They always trusted me because I took care of them so good! I love having animals around me. I have no job at the moment! So I have plenty of times to take care of your pets like mine! Let me be your pet’s best friend! I have a fenced house and have 2 cats in the house. Plenty of spaces for pets to run around in the house! And they can go potty any time they want!

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I’ve raised 5 dogs of my own—Money, Little Bro, Sugar, Latte, and my beloved senior pup Bear Bear, who was with us until the age of 18. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs, including overnight stays in my home. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pup in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. I also love capturing sweet, candid moments and sharing photos with pet parents so they can see how their pups are doing while they’re away. I recently stepped away from my full-time career and am enjoying having more flexibility in my schedule. This gives me plenty of time to give your pup the attention, companionship, walks, and care they need. I’m generally available throughout the week and can work with your dog’s routine and schedule. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and each dog’s individual routine and needs. I follow pet parents’ instructions carefully and treat their home with the same respect I would my own. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel connected and know your pup is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Helayna! I have been around big dogs, small dogs, and cats for as long as I can remember. I am 31 and I have had a golden retriever and two German shepherds. I am very comfortable with big dogs and have taken care of a lab, huskies, and chow chows just to name a few. I love playing with them and making sure they get the exercise they need. I am also a huge cat person too. I have always had cats, some super friendly, others were chill and do their own thing. I currently have one baby (profile picture, Pepper) and she is my everything. My schedule is very flexible and able to accept last minute bookings, drop ins, and house sittings. I have house sat for family and friends and their family and their friends as well. Pets are more than animals that live in your house, they are your children and need to be taken care of by people that would treat your babies like their own. I would love to meet you and your babies to give you peace of mind they are being taken care of when you are out. I am currently doing Rover full time so I am able to give all my time and attention to your pats. Monday-Friday I am available as early as 7am and can be done at 9pm at the latest. I will be able to meet and greet last minute if something came up and you need someone to watch your pet. I have a smaller patchy backyard with no dogs in the back. I do have 3 cats in my house and my area does have stray cats that roam around the backyard that sun bathe.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for more than 35 years for neighbors, friends and family including special needs, vision impaired, in diapers, senior/older dogs, aggressive behaviors as well as big and small. I’ve cared for many breeds both in their homes as well as my home. I’m a professional musician and I work 1-3 nights/week so my schedule varies and is flexible when planned in advance. I can sit in your home or mine. I try to schedule around my part time work schedule. My retired husband is my dog sitting partner so we can accommodate most schedules. Our home has a fenced backyard and a friendly mixed pointer and pug to keep your dog company. The dogs can enjoy the backyard frequently through the day, the back door is often kept open. During the night the dogs and are kept indoors from 12am-7:30am. Dogs can see on their own dog beds or even our sofas. We are a dog family and we’ve housed many dogs through the years. When caring for your dogs in your home, I try to maintain your routines as much as possible. I give lots of affection, petting frequently, brushing once a day. If owner prefers, I allow pets to sit with me, on me. I prefer not to sleep with them. However, if that is what they are accustomed to I am willing. Please warn me if they are loud snorers (like my husband lol)

About: I have 20 years of experience in dog care and can take house and yard and can also walk the dog on time. I’ve been raising dogs for a while now. It’s a joyful experience filled with playful moments and challenges. Every day, I learn something new about their behavior and needs. They bring so much happiness and companionship into my life. It’s amazing how much love and loyalty they show. 1. Feeding: • Once or twice a day depending on the animal and vet recommendations. 2. Fresh Water: • Change water at least once daily. 3. Exercise/Playtime: • Dogs need walks (15–30minutes depending on breed). 4. Grooming (as needed): • Brushing, checking for ticks/fleas, especially for long-haired animals. 5. Clean-ups: • Scoop litter boxes, clean up after walks, or spot-clean cages. Routine Care Includes: • Feeding and Watering: According to the pet’s normal schedule. • Exercise & Play: Walks for dogs, play sessions for cats or small animals. • Medication Administration: If required — pills, drops, or injections (if trained). • Litter Box or Yard Clean-Up: Scooping, changing litter, picking up after walks. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, light tidying up, alternating lights or blinds to make the home look lived in.

About: I used to volunteer at animal shelters throughout high school and pet sit for family friends. I am currently an animal science major so I know a lot about pets and how to care for them. I make it my mission to treat every animal I see like my own and show nothing but love and comfort. I am currently a student in college as well as an after school leader at an elementary school. I only go to school 2 days a week but those days i have closed off for certain services. Mondays I am only out of my home from 2-4 and Wednesdays from 2:30-6. Other than those days and time I am completely available for your fur baby. I do offer dog walking and drop ins everyday, but only around certain times. I will have plenty of time to play around with your pets and make sure they are well taken care of. I tend to go on walks daily so dog walking fits perfectly. I have a fenced yard and a big backyard for the times I care for pets at my home. I have 2 small dogs, 1 keeps to herself and is very calm, the other is very playful and likes to run around with other dogs. However it is very easy to separate my fur babies from yours if you aren’t comfortable with other dogs. I have 2 sides to my house and can keep them on opposite sides. I am close to several dog parks as well and in case of emergency close to a veterinary clinic. I am very careful with instructions if there is any special needs your pets have. I always make sure the pets I look after are happy and well taken care of.

About: 🏡 Home Boarding — What’s Included in a Stay at My Home Two daily walks, with a nearby park available for exercise and enrichment • Clean food and water bowls provided • Daily light grooming (brushing, gentle face wipes, and basic upkeep) • Relaxed, home-style environment with supervised access to furniture for small dogs and cats • Daily photo updates with a brief summary of your pet’s day • Ongoing supervision and companionship • A selection of treats and toys for play, enrichment, and comfort What to bring: • Your pet’s regular food and treats • A leash or harness • Their personal bed or blanket for comfort and familiarity I maintain a calm, structured environment and limit the number of pets at one time to ensure each guest receives personalized care. Whether your pet enjoys playtime or quiet rest, their needs will be met with the same level of care I provide for my own pets. Since 2020, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I grew up in a dog-loving household—my father breeds English Bulldogs, and I’ve helped care for litters of puppies, from feeding to early socialization. I’ve also worked with more reactive dogs, including a pit bull who required patience, structure, and basic leash training. In addition to at-home care, I assist my mother, who is a part-time pet sitter. Together, we’ve provided in-home visits that include light grooming, brushing, cleanup, and keeping pets calm and happy while their owners are away. I’m confident with basic obedience training like sit, stay, and down, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and individual needs. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a slower pace, I provide calm, 1-on-1 care with daily walks and lots of love. Save $20 on your first booking with Rover with the link below! https://www.rover.com/sit/lunac95415 (or save 10% when you pay through ΖeIIe!) As a full-time pet sitter, caring for animals is woven into every part of my day—from morning walks and mealtime to evening cuddles. Each pet has their own rhythm, and I shape my schedule around making them feel safe, loved, and at home. In my home, I provide a safe, calm environment where pets receive 1-on-1 attention, regular potty breaks, and daily walks. I stick to their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any special needs. I don’t have a large yard, but I make sure each pet gets quality outdoor time through walks and supervised play. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions closely. I maintain their normal routine, keep things tidy, and make sure pets feel secure while you’re away. Whether it’s light grooming, medication, or just companionship, I always aim to give pets the same level of care I’d want for my own.

About: Working as a teacher and pet sitter have taught me many of the same skills: patience, communication, responsibility, and genuine care. I’ve traveled across the U.S. to pet sit for both cats and dogs, and I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m attentive to owners’ instructions and take their trust seriously. Whether it’s keeping up with a feeding schedule, making sure a dog gets plenty of exercise, or giving a shy cat some extra space and patience, I do my best to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m also respectful of your home and always aim to leave a place as clean—or cleaner—than I found it. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. I currently work as a substitute teacher, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time before and after work to provide attentive care, and I’m generally able to adjust my schedule around a pet’s needs. I live a calm lifestyle and enjoy spending time at home, so pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a safe, comfortable home with a backyard where pets can get some fresh air and space to explore. I also live right next to a park with a designated pet area and plenty of greenery, which makes it easy to provide regular walks and outdoor time. I want pets in my care to feel comfortable and at home, while also following their owner’s routines, instructions, and preferences.

About: I’ve fostered and volunteered at many animal shelters over the years, and I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they travel. I’m very comfortable around all kinds of animals, and I know how important it is to feel like your pet is in good hands. While I don’t have any pets of my own right now, that just means I can give your pet my full attention and care. I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home with flexible hours. Being home throughout the day means I can provide attentive, hands-on care, whether that’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine. I can be flexible so just let me know when you’re available and I’ll try my very best to accommodate. When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of my family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can relax, play, and feel completely at ease. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that offers plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely. Pets are always supervised while outside to ensure their safety and comfort at all times. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication, and bedtime rituals, to help them feel at home. I offer plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they want them!), along with quiet spots for rest and alone time when needed. Whether they’re here for a short stay or a longer vacation, I make sure every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well cared for every step of the way. 🐶 Dog Care (Boarding & Drop-Ins) When dogs stay with me, I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard where they can run and play safely, always under supervision. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible including feeding schedules, walks, and bedtime habits to help them feel right at home. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I adjust care to match their needs. For dog drop-in visits, I can stop by your home to provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. 🐱 Cat Care (Boarding & Drop-Ins) I also have experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, from social and playful to shy and independent. I understand that cats need a calm, patient approach, and I always let them come to me at their own pace. For drop-in visits, I make sure your cat stays comfortable in their own home while you’re away. Visits can include feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship. If boarding, my home provides a calm, low-stress environment that’s ideal for cats. Since I only accept one family at a time, your cat will never be around unfamiliar animals. I never force interaction and always respect each cat’s comfort level. I’m also comfortable caring for multi-cat households and can follow detailed routines, including basic medication if needed. IMPORTANT NOTE: - Please let me know about their temperament. The more details the better. - To give each pet the attention, comfort, and calm environment they deserve, I only board pets from one family at a time. This means your pets will never have to share their space with unfamiliar animals, reducing stress and allowing me to fully focus on their individual needs. Whether your pets are playful, shy, or needs special care, I’m able to tailor their stay and provide a safe, peaceful, and loving home by away from home just for them. - Up to date vaccinations including rabies shots are REQUIRED. ** Pickup & Drop-Off Policy Drop-offs and pickups are available during agreed-upon hours. For scheduling and safety reasons, late-night drop-offs or pickups after 12am will incur a $20 late night pick up fee. Pickups and drop-offs are not available after 2am. Thank you 🐾

Jacqueline was a pleasure to have take care of our fur babies. We appreciate her communication with us and all the pictures she sent. Not one day did we have to worry if our babies were ok. Maybe just the first day because we didn’t know what to expect. We have one really shy cat and we were worried she wouldn’t eat or come out of hiding but she did really great with her. She even played with them. We will definitely be booking her again. Thank you.

Justin was a great sitter for our two doggies! He played with them, fed them, and gave them water just as we asked. He also even picked up their poop which was a nice touch! He made it very easy for us to enjoy our getaway without needing to worry about our dogs. They were in great hands while we were gone!

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 .

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 .
