“Our cats were in good loving hands while we were away on a 10 day trip. Darayell communicates very well, is punctual, and even took our trash can to the curb. I highly recommend her to care for your pets.”

About: I have over 21 years experience caring for dogs and cats. Through my volunteer work at animal shelters and pet sitting for family and friends I have developed an understanding for pet care needs. I currently have open availability for drop ins for early mornings and late nights to accommodate for 3rd shift. I am avaliable on weekends and some holidays for drop ins and walks but, unfortunately at the moment I'm not available for over night stays or boarding. My schedule is open for most of the day except between 4PM-8PM during the week. When sitting in your home I ensure your pets safety and follow all your care routines. I make sure your fur baby is well taken care of and loved.
“Katlyn took excellent care of both of our cat and dog. They are both weary of new people and she went out of her way to open them up and constantly care for them. Would absolutely recommend!”

“Tavia was wonderful with Brooklyn! She and her daughter were so friendly, and I could tell Tavia truly loves dogs and treated Brooklyn like her own. Brooklyn had a great time, and I loved all the videos and photos! I’ll definitely use her again! ❤️🐾”

“Brittany did an incredible job watching my two cats while I was away for the holidays! She was so pleasant to meet before I left town and I loved hearing about her own dog and cat. I knew she would take great care of my babies. She was also incredibly prompt replying to my inquiries and flexible with my schedule. I really appreciated her help!”


About: Patient, firm but gentle dog handler and groomer. I have over 15 years of experience working with dogs including working as a dog groomer. I feel consistency is the best method to keeping dogs balanced so I will work closely with you to create a routine that is best for your fur baby. My approach as a handler is through repetition/consistency/patience. I primarily work from home, I do work part time a few days a week outside of the home. I aim to keep the same feeding and potty schedule the pet currently has to lessen anxiety and behavioral issues. If I’m not able to do so, I will not book the boarding. I give fur babies time and space to acclimate to the new environment. For safety no food, totes or treats are provided, except from pet parent. All fur babies are in collar & leash for bathroom breaks/walks. I board two fur babies maximum and small/medium sized fur babies only.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
“I have such amazing things to say about Marisa!! First of all she is just a great person! Second off, I have a very stubborn 6 year old German shepherd that is extremely protective of his home and somewhat standoffish at first. We had a meet and greet a few days before our trip and max seemed to like her so we felt confident it would work out. After several treats and a few visits max warmed right up to her and now they are best buds! She took her time and got to know the big sweet boy underneath his stubbornness lol! We will definitely be rebooking with her every time we are out of town! I recommend her 1000%!”

Esontay is amazing! I always feel completely at ease leaving my dogs in her care because I know they are in good hands. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely cares about them. Having someone I can trust to take great care of my dogs while I’m away gives me such peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend Esontay to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Amazing service! I took a chance booking for drop-in visits in my home, and she exceeded my expectations. She made me feel completely at ease, communicated consistently, and my dogs adored her. I would absolutely book her again! I truly appreciated her patience, kindness and customer service.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ellenwood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 .

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.
