About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very intuitive when it comes to animals and pay close attention to their body language and social cues so I can recognize what they need—whether that’s playtime, affection, a potty break, or simply a little space to feel comfortable. I’m caring, loyal, outgoing, and patient. One thing I’m especially proud of is my ability to connect with pets who may be shy, nervous, or unsure around new people. I never force interaction. I allow pets to come to me on their own terms and build trust at their pace. I’ve had pet parents surprised by how quickly their normally hesitant pets warm up to me! My home is a calm, quiet, and safe environment where your pet can relax and feel comfortable. I believe in healthy boundaries, which is why pets are kept out of my kitchen for their safety and to prevent them from getting into anything that may accidentally fall on the floor. I also never give pets human food and will follow the feeding schedule and instructions you provide. And there is definitely room for fun! 🐾 I’m happy to take your pup for walks, let them enjoy my safe backyard, snuggle with them on the couch, or get right down on the floor and play at their level. Sometimes that means I’m rolling around on the floor right along with them! I can also administer medications when needed and will carefully follow your instructions. I never use force with an animal and always treat each pet as an individual. My goal is simple: to give your pet a safe, loving, comfortable place where they receive the attention, affection, playtime, and care they deserve while you’re away. ❤️ I work full-time from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Being home throughout the day allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, outdoor time, playtime, and lots of love and snuggles. I’m able to keep a close eye on the pets in my care and follow their normal feeding, medication, and daily routines as closely as possible. I enjoy having animals around while I work, and caring for them has become a natural and enjoyable part of my everyday life. My schedule also gives me flexibility for boarding, doggy daycare, drop-ins, and walks. I have a secure, fenced backyard where your pup can enjoy supervised outdoor time. Fresh water is always available, and I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. From time to time, I may have other friendly dogs boarding with me, allowing for companionship and play when appropriate.
“Shanna was amazing!! Our little boy needed some meds on a daily basis and we had a trip planned. She was able to give our guy his meds daily, she kept him healthy and happy while we were gone without fail. Thank you so much Shanna!!!”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and reliable dog sitter who truly understands that pets are family — not just animals. I provide loving, attentive care tailored to your dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, feeding routines, or just keeping them company while you’re away, I make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and stress-free in your absence. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and pride myself on being patient, observant, and dependable. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine always come first.

Pet care fits well into my schedule because I have flexible availability and can reliably plan my time around pet visits, walks, and feedings.

In my home, I create a calm, clean environment where pets can relax, get regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and routines so their pet feels secure in their familiar space. I believe consistency, patience, and communication are important, and I always treat every pet like they are my own.

If the home has a designated dog door, I will follow the owner’s instructions regarding the pet’s access to the backyard, allowing them to safely come and go as permitted.

About: We've been caring for pets since we were both about 5 years old, with Gary's grandparents owning a farm & ranch in Montana growing up. Karen's family bred poodles since she was born. We're good at training puppies, and adult dogs as well. We love playing fetch much of the day with our Tilly and will do what your pet loves as well! We've cared for HUGE birds, tiny birds, chickens, cats, dogs large and small, rabbits, cattle, horses and pigs. We have also administered various types of medicine and cared for different types of infections, teaching owners as well. We love to snuggle with them and give them lots of attention! I, Karen, am used to cooking holistic meals for our dog and will care for your pet according to your instructions as well. We enjoy walking them, swimming with them and petting them often. They deserve it! They rely on us for their WHOLE well-being. Consistency is so important for animals so we will respect and follow the plans you lay out for them. We can also gather mail, water plants, do housekeeping, organization, gardening and more. Gary is a great handyman should the need arise during a sit. He maintains our pool and irrigation systems and makes any repairs needed. We're truly a great team!❤️ This is our sole work so available most of the time! Of course it depends on the type of care you need and if it works along with another sit. For example, we could walk your dog daily and have an overnight sit that allows for a short leave for that. We are very attentive, loving and kind! Our goldendoodle Tilly is on a nice schedule for exercise, eating, supplements and only healthy treats. We keep her clean and always look her over for any wounds and whatnot. We keep a clean home with uplifting music for pets. Also, we're very cognizant of pet signals, like needing to go potty, play, snack, snuggle and wanting general attention. It's one of those things that you get blessed by for just BEING a blessing to them!💛

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Florence stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 .
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.

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.
