About: I have grown up around dogs and then have raised them on my own as well. I’ve dealt with my dogs getting old and needing extra care, and have also helped my dog birth and raise 10 puppies. I know how to care for dogs, no doubt, but I know how to love on them even more so! ❤️ I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so I am super flexible with my schedule to fit around whatever you and your pet need. In a clients home, I try to keep the pet in as close to the same routine as when you (the owner) are home. Pets get stressed out when their people aren’t there, so I try to comfort them and keep things as familiar as much as I possibly can.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was A little kid.Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets.I’ve trained my 3 dogs since they were a pups and now they are 6 years old. I’m working full/part time at a dog/cat free kennel place.I can work when ever if it I can go back-and-forth between pet sitting and work and I get 2 to 3 days off so those days I am most definitely free. I have 4 dogs and 1 cat at home.I play with them, feed, take them on walks at parks and nature trails,I take them to work with me.
About: I've dabbled in walking dogs before, I've cared for many dogs in my life time. In highschool I cared for all kinds of live stock. I have my own mini dachshund at home who I love! I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool 4 daughters. We go on walks multiple times a day to walk the dog and also find reprieve from homeschool. I have a fenced in yard, a large crate if needed and a home the dogs are welcome. I have a car so we have access to emergency care if that were ever needed. We have a park near by and lovely walkable streets.
“Sage is such a gift! Over our extended absence (3+ weeks), Sage was responsive to Grace’s needs, using her impressive decision making skills demonstrative of her wide knowledge base. She took excellent care of our home and completed routine tasks to ensure our home was secure during our absence and more pleasant than we left it upon our return. The best accolades I can offer about Sage came from Grace herself. She is an old Russian Blue with a history of kidney problems. She also has a tendency to anxiously lick her body and develop irritated areas on her abdomen. She also is prone to dander. Sage clearly took pristine care of her, brushing and supplementing diet as needed without direction, as Grace looked and behaved absolutely beautifully upon our return. I would hire Sage to care for my sweet Grace without reservation again. I strongly recommend Sage due to her innate gift with animals. She is also adaptable and innovative and has the confidence to do what is best without direct instruction. Finally her responsiveness and reliability were reassuring. I recommend Sage without and reservation! You will be lucky to have her skilled help!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life of all sizes. Very patient and friendly with all fur babies. In our home they are apart of my family. I am currently a stay at home wife so my schedule is very flexible and I am very happy to make appointments to make sure they get the attention your fur babies deserve! I have experience with dogs beings off leashes trained as well as the ones that constantly need leashes so they don’t get into trouble. Playing in the yard or just butt scratches are a staple!
About: Hi! I’m Reanna, a passionate animal lover with 4 years of experience as a veterinary technician. I’ve cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, and medical needs—from playful puppies to senior cats requiring daily medication. My background in veterinary care means your pet will be in knowledgeable, compassionate hands whether you’re away for a weekend or an extended trip. I treat every pet like my own and pride myself on providing safe, stress-free, and loving care. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I live in Hempstead, TX. I work in Waller, TX - working 4 days per week with hour lunch break from 12:00pm- 1:00pm daily. This makes it easy for me to make mid day check ins or potty breaks! I have owned dogs and cats my entire life- through my own pets, fostering, rescuing, rehabbing, or gentling/ training. I am very in tune with behavioral cues and strive to fit each pet’s individual needs.
About: From experience with puppies to older dogs, I also offer grooming and other services if needed. I have big patio and a friendly pet they can play with. I stay at home with my baby and my pet Luna all day most days so I’ll be available any time for any walks, unexpected stays, or any other situation! My neighborhood is fairly new and small, we have a fenced yard and lots of room to play, we have a lot of toys and stuff around the house for your babies to play with!
“Gabrielle truly loves and cares for the fur babies. She was very thorough with instructions I had for a prescription food and probiotic regimen, for my cat who just recovered from an illness, and with communication for updates. Would definitely book again and recommend Gabrielle for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I have worked with dogs for 6 years, I own two dogs as well. A German Shepherd/Belgian Maliniois named Dex he is 5 years old and he has so much energy but is the biggest friendly fur ball. I also have a Cavachon named Dakota, he is 3 years old and he a couch potato inside and a dare devil outside. I work at a doggy daycare currently so I’ve worked with various breeds and I understand that you can not judge a dog based on breed. I also worked with temperaments and personality as well, I can manage the behaviors if walks are taking. I’m also in vet tech school so I’m currently learning more about dogs such as health issues and signs. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to provide your furry family members with attentive, loving care throughout the day. Your pets will be closely monitored and cared for 24/7 in a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home for every pup in my care. Crates are only used for feeding if needed, and the rest of the time your furry friend is free to roam and relax. My home also has security cameras for added peace of mind. Your pup will enjoy walks, plenty of attention, and lots of love while they’re with me. I respect each pups routine and personality, and fresh water is always available to keep them happy and comfortable.
About: I’ve raised 3 cats from birth in the last 3 years, I’ve been taking care of one of their injuries for a year so I’m happy to do what is needed! I’m available all day every day!

I would be very respectful of the boundaries set by the client and the pet, while also trying to go above and beyond for your pet!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
