“I can’t put into words how wonderful it is to work with Niki, she is so caring, thoughtful, responsive, and responsible. I highly recommend to anyone considering working with Niki to chose her as your pet sitter. I have gone away a few times and she took care of my 2.5 yr old cat, and he absolutely adores her. He is usually distant with people but he is very happy with her.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life chickens, cats, dogs, ect and I've had my own dog for about 7 and a half years while taking care of other people's dogs and cats I'm pretty flexible with my schedule and right now, my current job schedule is 3p-11p every Friday and 3p-11p every other weekend. By the end of August I will be busy on Wednesday afternoons I have my own car so in the event of any mishap, emergency, or just a change of scenery for your pet I can provide that. I'm also very detail oriented so I ask many questions to ensure I know as much as possible about your pet so that they can be safe and happy in your absence.
“Jessie is a wonderful care taker for my dogs. I have one old boy Rosco and a 5 year old girl Delta. Jessie has watched my dogs and when I can home there were in perfect shape. Sometimes Delta is a little difficult to walk but Jessie handles it with kindness and compassion. Since Rosco is an older dog his bladder is not as good as it once was so I have pee pads out. Jessie replaced them when Rosco had an accident. She came in twice a day at times that were very close to the dogs normal schedule. Based on my experience I'd recommend her. I plan to engage her in the future. You cannot go wrong.”

I train all breeds even Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, German Shepards, Cane corsos etc. For training I always use positive reinforement. I also teach basic obedience as well and work with any dog with any issue. I used to work at Petco for 4 years so I am knowledgeable about nutrition, pet products, pet care etc. I also have experience in grooming. I have experience working at 2 doggie daycares as well.

My goal is help others in need and save animal lives. I work part time at a family owned jewelry store and they are all pet lovers as well. I have a flexible schedule and we are usually closed for holidays. When I go to a clients house to walk their dog or just do a drop in I make sure everything is taken care of. Pups come first and I always ask the client if they need anything additional done around the house. I don’t mind cleaning or helping out. I can take care of other animals such as hamsters, Guinea pigs, reptiles, birds, fish, etc. before leaving a clients house I make sure all doors are locked, the pups are good & settled and the home is secure before heading out. For clients to feel comfortable I do take lots of pictures and videos of their pup and if they want to FaceTime their pup I’m fine with that too.

I have experience caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I know how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

This was our first time booking with Kelly, and she was great with Barney! They hit it off the first time they met, and it was obvious that she loves animals. She kept us informed when she was stopping over to see him and sent us a picture. I will definitely book with her again!
We know our girl is very focused on keeping ‘her pack’ complete. When one or both of us are out, she often watches the door waiting for our return. From the pix and report, it seems Dani did an excellent job of keeping her calm with companionship and comfort during her visit. I’m sure it was a welcomed break for Summer during our absence. It’s good to know we have a person we can feel comfortable with if we have to leave Summer for an extended time.
Kelly is SO wonderful with my pup! I had her stop in to feed my xl Am Bully puppy while I was away at work during the day, and my pup is now obsessed with her! He brings her a toy when she comes in! She also sends me cute pics of him throughout the time she’s here and is sure to follow his feeding instructions. I’m looking to hire her again when work picks back up! Fab!!

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 Emmaus 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 .
