About: As a person whose significant other is terribly allergic to dogs it breaks my heart that I can't have one for my own. But that makes me the perfect "Doggy Auntie". The amount of friends and family that ask me to take care of their dogs while they are away is more than I can count of both hands. I love going for walks and hikes and having a dog with me is the best way to do it. I have a very set schedule but my job is very dog friendly so bringing them into the office with me is very easy, plus they get more snuggles from my coworkers. I understand that your pet is your family and they deserve to be treated as such. I want you to be able to enjoy vacation or your work day without having to worry about your family back home. I know every house hold is different so I'd rather have too much information than not enough information in regards to how you would like your pet's routine maintained.
About: I have always had a pet dog and ever since I was a teenager, I’d dog-sit for family and neighbors. Since college, I’ve been pet-sitting ajd dog walking on a more professional level. I’ve babysat for a few hours, simply for a walk, but have also watched multiple high energy dogs for up to two weeks. I’ve cared for dogs under a year old and up to 13 years old. I’ve always loved dogs and find them very easy to get along with and care for no matter their size, age, or personality. I have also cared for kittens a few weeks old, senior cats, administering medication orally, grooming them if they have long hair etc. Cats have a very different energy than dogs but I enjoy taking care of them just as much as dogs. I am currently in between jobs so I have a lot of free time to care for other dogs, whether it is a short walk or a multi-hour play date, etc. I always follow whatever guidance I am provided by pet parents. This means if you are only comfortable with your dog on a leash or lead while in your yard, I strictly follow that. If there are specific commands to use, certain behavior to watch out for or discourage, particular toys or activities they enjoy, I always follow what information I am given and am always open and communicate well about any issues or concerns that might arise on my end.
“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”
“Audrey is wonderful! She kept my little senior cat so happy and content during my trip. Jasmine is very social and Audrey sent me wonderful photos of her each day, as well as a report that she was doing well. Jasmine needs medication and Audrey took care of that as well!”
“Itzel was incredible!! Asked all the right questions at the meet & greet, was responsive when I texted her in between then and the actual booking, & then was extremely communicative throughout the whole stay. She was at my place & sent pictures, videos and updates throughout the week, as well as kept my apartment looking great (even washed the towels and blankets!). I know my dog Ziggy absolutely loved her and he was so well taken care of, especially on Christmas. She gave him lots of attention and love and he was so happy when I returned but I know he misses her! Signs of a great sitter :) Will recommend her to anyone and will book with her again!”
“Piper was wonderful with our two dogs - she sent photos and updates while we were away, giving us peace of mind that the boys were in good hands. We will definitely have her back next time!”
About: Hey, I’m Anthony—18 years old with 11 years of hands-on pet care experience. I’ve lived with over 40 animals, fostered 6, and grew up in a family that was big on training, so structure, patience, and consistency have always been part of how I care for pets.” It sounds perfect i could make a schedule around the client and would be able to clear up my schedule as long as i have the ability to I would keep the client updated at all times. To the absolute best with proper love care and kindness fed water keep them active and put my attention towards them more so that’s it be diverted anywhere else the animal is the most important as well as what the client requests is to the most important above all
About: Although I have less experience in dog care in comparison to taking care of cats, I live an active lifestyle and am fully capable of going on walks with any dog’s typical walk regime. As a student who’s home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule I dedicate to spending time with my or any of my friends’ pets. I care for pets by referring to the owners and following any procedures based on the pet’s needs. I’m capable of basic maintenance and problem solving.
“Yareisy was great!! She house sat my two cats for a long weekend and I would definitely book her again. She made sure to take pictures of everything, including cleaned litter boxes, tons of photos of my cats, and where she left the key at the end of the trip. I highly suggest booking her, your fur babies will be well taken care of!😊😊”
“Julissa stayed in my home for 6 days caring for my two dogs. She was promt and responsive and my dogs were happy and healthy when I arrived home. She also left the house in perfect condition. I would not hesitate to hire her again!”
“Sarah is a phenomenal dog sitter. My anxious dogs bonded with her immediately so I felt very comfortable leaving for my trip. She texted multiple updates a day, including pictures. I will definitely book with her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Enfield
Ayana was incredible! So kind and patient with my deaf, special-needs dog, even taking the time to learn some of the ASL signs I use to communicate with her. It was such a comfort knowing my dog was with such a kind and caring person. I couldn’t recommend Ayana more!
Haley was wonderful with my elderly dog Rupert and his much younger companion Cooper. During her stay she cheerfully and skillfully handled Cooper’s medications & special dietary needs due to a recent injury. The dogs loved her and she was very respectful of my home and belongings!
Aiden was amazing at taking care of our babies while we were away for a wedding. She was great at giving us updates and left our apartment in immaculate condition. We could tell our pets were well loved and give the best treatment. Would recommend Aiden 10/10 times.

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 Enfield 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 Enfield 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.
Tip: 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 Enfield 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

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.
