“Kaylie was a wonderful dog sitter. One of our dogs can be cautious with new people, and Kaylie was patient, caring, and attentive, which helped our dog feel comfortable. She communicated very well throughout our time away and sent many pictures that were reassuring and appreciated. We’re grateful for the thoughtful care she provided and would happily book with her again.”
About: I have had dogs all of my life. From a German Shephard, to Labs, Goldens, Huskies, Shih Tzu, I have had them all. I have experience giving my Red Fox Lab, Big Boy Butters insulin shots, since he is diabetic. My Goldens, Maggie and Ollie, love playing tennis ball and going for walks. Daisy, my Shih Tzu, thinks that she is a Doberman even though she is only 15 pounds. They all love to wrestle. I have a fenced in yard where they can run freely. They enjoy their treats and all of the rubs they can handle. I also have experience with salt water/fresh water fish and reptiles. Just love animals. They are always happy to see you and they enjoy being loved. I am working full time but have an open ended schedule and am willing to make anything work. I can either come to you or willing to have your pets stay with me. I have 3 teenagers that also love dogs that are willing to help out.

Autumn was wonderful with our pups! She has an amazing work ethic! She arrived on time and spent time with the dogs inside and outside and provided an update with pictures while with them. She gave them treats after potty time according to their routine and upon leaving to ease their transition time. Autumn is delightful and dependable. I couldn’t be more pleased!
First time with Rachel & I came home to a happy, relaxed dogs. It’s such a relief to know my dogs were not just looked after, but truly cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Forest Hill 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.
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 Forest Hill 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Forest Hill with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
