“Mackenzie is so thoughtful with my two dogs. She makes sure that they get the time and attention they need, while also being sure that they don’t overheat in the summer. I love that attention to care! I am so grateful that we found Mackenzie!!”
“Laura was great taking care of my pup! She was really sweet and attentive with each of her visits and put my mind at ease that my dog was getting attention and love in my absence. She sent me updates and pictures throughout my trip. I booked her again for my next travel dates.”
About: 🐾 Experienced & Trustworthy Dog Walker and Pet Sitter Providing reliable, loving, and attentive care for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. Experienced with daily walks, drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, and making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and regular check-ins throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and communication for peace of mind. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, and exercise. I also make sure their space stays clean and safe, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
About: I have lots of experience with fostering dogs and cats! From senior dogs, puppies, kittens, to senior cats, I have experience fostering. Loved all of them! I am available for boarding on the weekends or play dates/day care on fridays. I work full time, but if you need a pet sitter just for the evening, I would love to do that too. Simple minimal home with space to run around, live close by parks (for an active pup), but would also love cuddle time with more introverted pets too :)
About: I am a very attentive person who will make sure to read any notes daily that you leave. I am great a training dogs and I will follow the training procedures for your loved one. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me the ability to do routine walks. I would love to be the go to sitter for your dog! I live with one other adult (male) and a 1 year old miniature Border Collie. The Border Collie is well trained and plays well with other dogs.
“I cannot recommend Melissa enough! She truly goes above and beyond in every way. From the moment I reached out, her communication was clear and prompt. She made sure to ask all the right questions to ensure she fully understood my dog's needs and preferences. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing Hammy was in great hands. What really stands out is how much care and attention Melissa put into looking after our dog. She not only followed our instructions perfectly but also went the extra mile to provide a fun, loving environment for our dog son. Extremely reliable, trustworthy, and kind, Melissa is everything you want in a dog sitter and more. I will absolutely be using her services again in the future!”

“Alex was wonderful! Very professional and communicative. She handled all of our cats needs, and even got the reclusive one who hides from everyone to play with her! We will definitely hire Alex again to watch our kitties.”
About: I have been taking care of family friends and neighbors pets for a few years now, I am very flexible and easy when it comes to times and what kind of animal is needing to be watched/taken care of. I am a college student, and I work much later in the day (3pm-11pm). I am very good at time management, and I’m super flexible and easy to work with when someone needs something done. I love my dog, I grew up with dogs running the house and they should always be respected as part of the family. I love to greet other pets when I walk in, I make sure they sniff and walk around so they know I am not a threat. Cats are much newer to my family but I love them. I’ve only watched cats a few times, and I’ve learned that they will show you how they want to be treated whether that’s leaving them alone completely or playing with them for a bit. In other homes, I would make sure what their rules and needs are so I can cater to that pet and household.
About: Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked in a variety of healthcare settings where compassion, patience, attention to detail, and staying calm under pressure were essential every day. Those same qualities naturally carry over into the way I care for pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I treat every pet with the same level of care, safety, and attentiveness I would want for my own. What sets me apart is my strong caregiving background, reliability, and ability to pay close attention to behavior changes, routines, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, including senior pets who may need extra patience, gentler handling, medication reminders, or a calmer environment. I’m also organized, communicative, and committed to keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel at ease while away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I currently work weekdays from 8–5, but I make time before and after work for walks, feedings, drop-ins, playtime, and companionship. I’m especially flexible on weekends, which allows me to dedicate even more time and attention to pets who may need extended care or extra visits. As a pet owner myself, I understand the love, patience, and compassionate care that fur babies need to feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I have a Chihuahua of my own, so I’m very familiar with maintaining routines, paying attention to behavior and comfort levels, and treating pets like family. I also pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and flexible whenever possible to help meet both pet and owner needs. 🐾 Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. Having worked in the healthcare industry for over 10 years, I understand the importance of being attentive, dependable, detail-oriented, and aware of changes in behavior or routine. I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines as closely as possible because I know consistency helps pets feel comfortable and reduces stress. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions if needed, and any special care requests. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times during walks and visits. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with patience, compassion, and the same level of attention I would want for my own Chihuahua. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured and connected while away. 🐾
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over two years and truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. During that time, I’ve cared for dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels, providing walks, feeding, playtime, medication when needed, and lots of attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust.

Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply wants a calm companion to cuddle with, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care tailored to their needs. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the week. On my work-from-home days, I’m available for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. On office days, I carefully schedule visits before work, during breaks when possible, and in the evenings to ensure pets stay on their normal routine. My evenings and weekends are also available for drop-in visits, walks, boarding, and overnight care. Because of my flexible schedule, I can accommodate many pets’ needs while providing regular updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority, and I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, clean, and loving home with a fully fenced backyard where they can enjoy supervised outdoor time to play, explore, and get exercise. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, so I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Whether your dog loves to run and play, enjoys relaxing on the couch, or needs extra patience while adjusting to a new environment, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

There’s no other dogs in my home, so they will receive full attention from me.

“Lindzi is such a great sitter- highly recommend!! Our flights were canceled and she was already prepared to watch our cats for another day just in case. Our cats can get spooked easily and she made sure to stay until they came out of hiding so she could send us pictures and make sure they were safe. The absolute best!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Georgetown
Heather is so responsible and a great sitter. She takes care of each pet, and even notified us that she had seen our missing kitty, who made an appearance during our brief absence, but did not come in. We were able to bring him back in when we returned home. We're very appreciative of Heather's care!
Michaela was amazing with our two doggos! I needed her to come over and meet my Murphy, in particular, before she was scheduled for drop ins just to introduce and make sure she wasn't a stranger. Michaela was very communicative and thorough in her questions about the dogs and Murphy took a liking to her immediately. I had Michaela come by twice while we were out of town on a day trip and she was prompt and very communicative. I will be sure to use Michaela again!
Marissa is absolutely incredible! Our pets adore her, and it’s clear she treats them like they’re part of her own family. Whenever we’re out of town, we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in the best hands. She consistently goes above and beyond—leaving thoughtful, detailed updates after every visit and even watering our plants without us ever having to ask. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We are so grateful to have found her and can’t recommend her highly enough!
Kira did an absolutely, fantastic job. Showed up for the 10 visits on time, everytime. Sent photos of my dogs each and every visit. I trusted her in my home and she proved herself to be trustworthy. I am so completely satisfied and will inquire her services again in the future. I recommend Miss Kira to anyone looking for a great pet sitter. Thank you, Kira.
Darla has been so very helpful. I broke my ankle and have 2 dogs one is so laid back the other is a 4.5 month old puppy and I was struggling so hard to give him attention. Darla immediately bonded with both dogs and has taken the best care of them while I can't. Highly highly recommend her!
I loveeee Brooklyn ! Very patient ! Attentive ! She did all of my puppies needs and gave extra love and attention and had the fresh water and food out for them and all of the pictures and the reports in time ! I will use her devices again and I can totally recommend her to the care sitter or drop in walking of your pets ! She is amazing !
Debbie was made a second trip to my house to pick up my key, as the meet-and-greet was well in advance of the booking. Debbie was also able to add an extra drop-in at the last minute and was even willing to scoop poop. Debbie sent plenty of photos, and from the looks of it, my pets thoroughly enjoyed her company.

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 Georgetown 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.

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 Georgetown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
