“Sharon is reliable, kind, and easy going. I trusted her to watch my pets while I was out of state & she made me to provide me with daily updates. I would highly recommend her care.”
About: With 15 wonderful years as a pet owner, I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is in caring, responsible hands. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits. I’m committed to providing personalized care, keeping your pet comfortable and happy, and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Every pet deserves patience, attention, and plenty of love— and that’s what I aim to provide! I am available with a flexible schedule and can provide attentive care, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and maintaining a clean and comfortable environment. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, and I am happy to follow specific instructions from pet owners. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so pets and their owners can feel comfortable and confident while they are apart. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow the pet’s normal routine and the owner’s specific instructions. I would provide fresh food and water, give medications if requested and properly instructed, take dogs for walks or provide indoor exercise, and spend quality time with the pet so they feel comfortable and cared for. I would also clean up after the pet, maintain a safe and tidy environment, and give the owner regular updates so they know how their pet is doing. I would treat the client’s home with the same respect and care that I would want for my own home.
About: Hi! I'm a passionate pet caregiver with 15+ years of experience as a dog owner of both large and small breeds. I've spent years dog walking and pet sitting, and I'm comfortable administering medications and supporting dogs through post-surgery recovery. As a bonus parent to two vocal, dramatic cats who are full of love and personality, I bring patience, affection, and a good sense of humor to every visit. Whether it's a quick walk, daily check-in, or longer stay, your pets will get attentive care, exercise, and plenty of love from someone who truly gets it. Looking forward to meeting your furry family! 🐾" I'm available for morning and evening walks and drop-ins. I can also help at lunch-time Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and I used have some availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home environment for your pet. With 15+ years of experience owning both large and small breed dogs, plus being bonus cat parent to two vocal kitties, I understand how to create a safe and comfortable space. Your dog or cat will receive attentive care, plenty of love, and personalized attention while they’re with me. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to make sure they feel right at home.
“Nina came in checked on our kitty girls while we were away, and took the sweetest photos. She met us and the kitties ahead of time, and it was obvious that she is a true animal lover.”
About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by pets. My parents took care of dogs all throughout me growing up :) as well as me and my mom were constantly bringing home more (including a pig once😅) all animals are family to me and I take great pride in providing exceptional care to other peoples furbabies when they need me :) I currently have one dog and three cats who I love so dearly. I am home 90% of the time and do most of my work from home. I am very flexible and can 99% of the time make things work to fit your pets needs!! Happy to be of service to you☺️ I am home 90% of the time and do most of my work from home. I am enrolled in college and when classes are active I have a 1 hour long class on Mondays and Wednesdays. I spend most of my time cuddled up with my pets (and yours if there here ☺️) or im running around with my dog to burn off some of his energy😆 my schedule is very flexible and pet care will always fit into my daily routine. I have a fenced yard and gates throughout my home to separate areas where the dogs should not be or could get hurt. I do regular potty breaks every hour but if this needs to be adjusted due to your pets needs I can do that! I do morning and night feedings for my dog and cats but I can manage feeding your pet on their schedule as well :)
“Olivia was great watching our dog, Maggie. She took time to send updates and provides pictures. It really made enjoying our vacation easier - knowing that Maggie was in such good hands!”
“Lily was the perfect sitter for drop-in visits for my three cats while I was gone! She kept me updated the whole time and was very accommodating. Thank you Lily and I will definitely book again if ever needed.”
“Elenor does an amazing job, we’ve used her twice now and she is very detail oriented with her Check In Messages, very personable, and will work with you when needed I will continue to use her EVERY TIME!!”
“Keagan was excellent with our two pups Bandit and Lil Man. She did exactly what we asked of her. I loved the photos she took to always assure us the boys were doing well. Would highly recommend her to anyone. Wish we could give her 10 stars. The boys loved her! *We did leave a cash tip*”
“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She took care of our dog, and our two cats for an entire week while we were away, and we couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and caring throughout the entire week. She sent us regular updates and photos after her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and being well cared for. Right before we left for our trip, a cyst on our dog’s back unexpectedly burst, which of course made us nervous about leaving her. Stephanie truly went above and beyond. She took our dog to the vet for us, kept us updated, and made sure she received her medication and the extra care she needed afterward. Knowing that our dog was in such capable and caring hands while we were away meant so much to us. Stephanie treated our pets like they were her own, and we came home to three happy, well-cared-for pets. We are so grateful for everything she did and would absolutely book with her again. We highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up on a farm with all sorts of animals. I have had indoor pets for over 30 years and currently my family and I have two cats. I can even take care of smaller pets like hamsters, guinea pigs and lizards. However, spiders need not apply! 🙂 I currently work until 2: 30 p.m. But I have flexibility to go check on pets, I can also do evening runs and or house sitting as needed! my preference would be to check on your pets in your home, but can provide care in my home. I have cats who have been around dogs a bit
“Ozlen accepted a last-minute request for drop-in for my two dogs and was a lifesaver! Very easy communication, super pleasant to deal with, and I would absolutely book with her again.”
“AnnaMarie is an awesome sitter! Highly recommend. Took great care of our senior JRT while away on a weekend trip. Would be honored to have her help take care of Ralphie again.”
About: I’ve grown up with many dogs ranging from Dachshunds to Pitbulls. I love helping my dogs stay active and comfortable. I would love to care for your pet, small or large, in your time away! I work Monday-Thursday from 8am-5pm and Fridays 8:30-2:30. I am able to walk your dog or drop in from 12pm-1pm on weekdays. Unfortunately, outside of that time frame, I am not available until 5:30pm on a weekday (Mon-Thurs) or from 7am-8am. For drop-ins and walking, I will make sure to check on all of your animals needs and anything else pet related that you would like while I am there. I would love any tips to help care for your animal while I am with them!
About: I’m all about attention. Giving attention and connecting and being aware of a dogs needs is everything to caring for them and helping them feel safe and loved. I’m retired and active so I’m flexible and available. If possible I will adjust my schedule to care for a pets needs across the board. I’m attentive to their need for play and rest and I’m focused on compassion and care. Dogs love schedules and whether food driven or play or connection and care, I adjust and take full responsibility for making their life better.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Forestville
Alyeska did a fantastic job caring for my cat, Luca. She was very responsive from the very first moment that I reached out to her on Rover until the day of her last visit. She was reliable and provided photo updates and detailed check-ins with each visit. I knew that my cat was well cared for by Alyeska while I was away. She's dependable and caring and I will not hesitate to reach out to Alyeska again to care for my cat while I'm away. Thank you Alyeska for being so wonderful!!
Amanda helped with my 3 pups for an extended period, much longer than anticipated. She took over in an emergency and was so reliable and great with my dogs, and kind enough to accommodate us for an extended sit, that we asked for her services with no hesitation. And that can be tricky when you're not able to explain the care in person. We communicated via texts and phone on regular basis and she went above and beyond to fulfill my dogs' needs and care. And my pups took to her very quickly. Leaving home for quite a bit may be worrisome but she took charge of the house care as well as if it was her own space. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone who wants a piece of mind while away and great care for their furry family members. Thank you from all of us!
Erin went above and beyond with my pets when I was in the hospital. She walked my dog every day, sent pictures of my cat and dog, and she even vacuumed my house and took out my trash. She checked up on me when I got out of the hospital. I would definitely hire her again.
Kim is so wonderful! She is great with both of my dogs (even though one is super anxious). She let me know that poor Smokey was having diarrhea and that he had gone in his kennel during one of their visits. She was so great about cleaning up after him and keeping me updated. She also takes the best pictures of my active puppy 🤩 Highly recommend Kim for your pet sitting needs!
McKenna did a wonderful job taking care of our older dog. Her feed back was great and much appreciated. She followed our instructions and listened to our concerns. We appreciate her prompt response since it was on late notice. Highly recommend her and will rebook with her.
Our senior cats, Boots and Bella, did amazingly well with Carol. They took to her immediately which is not always the case with cats, and they were happy to stay in their own home with visits from Carol while we were away. Carol paid close attention to their senior details, gave them love and attention during each visit, and I could tell they were comfortable and not stressed when we arrived home. We will definitely book Carol again!
Cindy is wonderful! She was great with our cats and exceptional with all the details for our older Siamese. She is punctual and communicative, and probably one of the best we’ve found. If you have furbabies that are a little complicated and you worry about finding the right person? Cindy is the one for you.
Keagan was excellent with our two pups Bandit and Lil Man. She did exactly what we asked of her. I loved the photos she took to always assure us the boys were doing well. Would highly recommend her to anyone. Wish we could give her 10 stars. The boys loved her! *We did leave a cash tip*
Lily was a fabulous cat caretaker! Our older one requires a lot, and she came beforehand to ensure she understood how to care for him and to get the layout of the home and requirements. She was communicative and let us know how things went with every visit. We definitely recommend her!
Julia was wonderful to work with. She was warm, friendly, and genuinely caring with Charlie from the moment she met him. During our meet-and-greet, she took the time to learn his routine, asked thoughtful questions, and was attentive to both Charlie’s and Panda’s needs. She also took care of Panda’s litter boxes and was compassionate and understanding while I was going through chemotherapy. Her communication was prompt and professional, and she gave me confidence that my pets would be well cared for. I would happily recommend Julia to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and caring pet sitter.

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.
