About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had dogs for the past 12 years, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means keeping up with a puppy’s energy, giving an older dog extra care and attention, or simply making sure a dog feels comfortable and loved while their owner is away. I’m happy to handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special routines or instructions to make sure every dog is well cared for. I currently work part time so I will always be able to make time for your furry friend! Check-ins will most likely be in the mornings or early afternoons. Whatever works for each pup I have a fenced in back yard that allows your pup to run around and play. My old man, Milo will be able to keep good company as well!

“Donovan did a fantastic job watching over my pet while I was on vacation. In the past I had never used a pet sitter, but I really wanted to take a good vacation away from home, and not be worrying about my pet everyday. Donovan took away that stress and went above and beyond making sure my cat was well taken care of. Thank you!”

“Rayna and Zach are absolutely terrific with my dogs. I was very nervous about introducing my 13 year old dog and new 3 month old puppy to strangers but they warmed up to them right away. Not only did they take care of their basic needs (food, water, bathroom), but they also took the time to teach my new puppy some essential tricks like not biting when he plays, being calm when entering the crate, etc. I come home every day with two tired, well behaved, and mess free pups. They have gone above and beyond my expectations and I am so lucky to have them taking care of my pups! I would recommend Rayna and Zach to anyone and everyone!!”

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, and fish in our home. I got my own puppy when I was 24. He was my baby until he passed away at 12 years old. I believe pets are family and should be treated that way. I especially love taking dogs on long walks or playing fetch until they’re worn out. I’m a stay at home mom/housewife so I have flexibility in my schedule during the week M-F. I can make most drop-in requests work. I prefer to care for dogs in your home. I can easily follow directions whether that is crating your dog, making sure they’re in a closed off area, or any other requirements.

About: I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m happy to care for dogs of different ages and energy levels, including playful puppies, active dogs, and sweet seniors who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated, and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m able to make pet care a priority in my routine and will work with you to provide dependable care around your pet’s needs. I understand that consistency is important, especially for pets who are used to a particular feeding, walking, medication, or bedtime schedule. I’ll make sure your pet receives the attention and care we agree on, and I’ll communicate with you if anything unexpected comes up. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules. In your home, I’ll treat your space respectfully and make sure doors, gates, and other safety precautions are secure. I’ll always keep your pet’s personality and comfort level in mind rather than forcing interaction. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine or providing walks and drop-ins, you can expect patience, attentiveness, and responsible care.

About: Hi, we’re Caitlin and Chris! Dogs have been part of our lives forever, and we truly treat every pet like family. At home, we share life with a 13-year-old boxer mix who has our whole hearts, so we understand the love, patience, and extra care dogs deserve, especially as they get older. We both work in schools, so while our daytime availability is more limited during the school year, we have plenty of flexibility in the evenings, on weekends, and during school breaks. We’re happy to work with your schedule and find a routine that works for both you and your pup. Whether you’re looking for a loving sitter while you’re away, a reliable evening or weekend dog walker, a drop-in visit, or extended care during a school break, your pup will be cared for by one (or both!) of us and spoiled with plenty of attention. Our goal is simple: to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. We know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, and we want you to feel confident that they’re in good hands. During the school year, our availability is primarily in the evenings, on weekends, and during school breaks. We work in schools, so our schedules follow the school calendar, giving us additional flexibility during holidays and extended breaks throughout the year. We do our best to accommodate last-minute requests when possible and are happy to work with your pet’s usual routine. Whether it’s an evening walk, a weekend drop-in, or care while you’re traveling, we’ll do our best to make things easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. We know how important it is to feel comfortable when trusting someone with your pet. We’ll share regular updates and photos and keep communication clear and consistent. We’d love to meet your pup and be part of their trusted circle!

About: I have had 6 years of experience as a vet technician and 10 years of experience with pet sitting. I have always had a close bond with animals throughout my life. I am comfortable with administering medications and any special instructions a pet may need during my time sitting. I love sending updates throughout my visit if the parent would like to receive them. Currently, I am a dental hygiene student, which entails attending classes from the morning until late afternoon on weekdays. I typically dedicate my time to studying both weekdays and weekends, ensuring ample opportunities to spend time with your fur baby/babies I’m great at following instructions and making sure everything is done carefully during my visit. I always respect people’s space and privacy when I’m in their home. I’m also a very tidy person and will tidy up or clean anything I use or touch.

About: I’ve had dogs of all sizes ! I love doing basic training with them . Friends and family have always trusted me with their pets , in my career as a licensed esthetician, I’ve developed patience, reliability, strong attention to detail, and the ability to provide personalized care qualities that also make me a dependable pet sitter. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply keeping pets company, I’ll treat every dog as if they were my own. I love to do house sitting / boarding , your dogs will get lots of one on one attention, walks and more ! I usually only work 30 hours a week so I have plenty of time to care for your animals,available on weekends , I work around 4 days a week sometimes it can be up to 9 hours. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly Husky of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic dogs and talented escape artists! I’m always extra mindful when opening doors, using leashes, and making sure pets are secure at all times. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll treat your space with the same respect and care as I would my own. If your dog stays with me, they’ll have access to a fully fenced yard for supervised play, a friendly Husky companion if they’re comfortable with other dogs, and a crate available if they prefer or are crate trained. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay.

About: I’ve not gone most of my life without pets in my life and I understand how much they mean to us. I have had plenty of friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets while they are out, so I’ve been able to deal with pups of most ages! I am home from college this summer and am looking for something to fill my free time! I have a very open and flexible schedule during the weekend and weekdays as of right now, so taking care of any pets shouldn’t be a problem as I am only a part time employee! I have a very energetic dog myself so I know what is needed to keep him entertained. I can crate your dog if needed/ when specified. For my dog, I make sure he takes his medications on time and I can do the same for any other pups. I make sure all meals are given out on time and treats given wisely but generously if allowed.

About: Hi! I’m Arturo, a responsible, active, and dependable caregiver with a strong background in leadership and coaching. I’ve spent years working with people in high-pressure environments as a soccer coach, which has taught me the importance of patience, communication, consistency, and attention to detail — qualities that also matter when caring for pets. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and understand that every pet has a different personality, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, structure, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to instructions, reliable with schedules, and committed to treating every dog like family. I’m also an active person, so I’m happy to provide walks, exercise, and engagement for high-energy dogs when needed. My goal is simple: give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands.

About: I’m a dedicated and experienced pet sitter with a deep love for animals. Having cared for my own Golden Retriever for 13 years and providing pet sitting services for friends and neighbors, I’ve developed a strong foundation in pet care. My experience is primarily with dogs, but I also adore and have been around cats. My approach to pet care focuses on providing individual attention, maintaining routines, and ensuring safety and well-being. I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior and understand the importance of exercise and play for pets. I’m motivated by the joy of building bonds with different pets and seeing their unique personalities shine. Each pet receives personalized care tailored to their needs, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. I offer a range of services including dog walking, overnight stays, administering medication, and anything else a client’s pet might need. My goal is to provide the highest level of care and ensure that every pet is happy and well-cared for. Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requests. I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I’m a full-time teacher with a consistent weekday schedule—out the door by 7 AM and home by 3 PM—which means your pup will get plenty of love and attention in the afternoons, evenings, and full availability on weekends, holidays, and breaks. Most dogs are used to their owners being gone during the day, so my routine works great for pups who are crate trained or used to a calm, midday break. After work, I dedicate time to walks and playtime, ensuring pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Over the past year, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and have added multiple XL crates to my house, making things super convenient for owners with crate-trained pups—no need to pack one! After work, I dedicate time to walks and playtime, ensuring pets receive the attention and exercise they need. Your pup will feel safe, loved, and right at home with me! To ensure the safety of pets, I have a very large, securely fenced-in yard where they can enjoy fresh air and play freely. Inside the home, I keep the environment pet-proofed by removing any potentially harmful items and maintaining a cozy, comfortable space with plenty of bedding and room for relaxation. I manage potential risks by thoroughly assessing and adjusting the environment to eliminate hazards and monitoring pets closely for any signs of distress. If I’m caring for more than one dog at a time, I always feed them separately to avoid any food-related stress or aggression. I have several XL crates available, which are primarily used to create a safe and calm space for feeding and rest—especially for pups who are already crate trained. To build trust with pets and their owners, I maintain clear and open communication, following the owner’s specific instructions and providing regular updates and photos. This transparency reassures owners and helps pets feel comfortable and secure in my care. My focus is on creating a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment for every pet I look after.

Jessica did an excellent job, as usual! We were on an Alaskan vacation for 10 days knowing our pups were in good hands. Jessica's skills as a vet technician allow her to notice the little things like behavior changes and the general well-being of our pets, which she reports to us daily. It gives us the confidence that our dogs are being well taken care of and we can give helpful instruction for any modifications to diet, medication, etc., while we are away. We highly recommend Jessica for your pet watching needs.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Flinthill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
