About: Hi! I’m Maya, a veterinary professional with experience in emergency medicine, outreach clinics, and general practice. I’ve worked hands-on with animals providing medical care and to pets and support for their owners. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring medications or special attention. I can recognize early signs of illness, respond calmly in emergencies, and ensure your pet is safe and cared for. I also tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. Pet care fits very well into my schedule. I have a flexible routine and can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekends. I’m reliable, punctual, and able to adjust my availability to meet client needs. I provide attentive, individualized care based on each pet’s needs and routine. In client homes, I maintain their normal schedule, ensure a clean and safe environment, and provide enrichment, exercise, and affection. With my veterinary background, I monitor for any health or behavioral changes and communicate updates clearly with owners.

About: I have had pets for over 20 years. I love all fur babies and will take care of yours while you are away. Currently I have 3 doggos and your baby can chill with the pack or have their own space. I’m comfortable bathing pups, administering meds, whatever you need! I work part time in a remote (wfh) position that allows me to be with my babies all day every day. Can be let out for potty breaks every few hours or as needed. I have a large fenced backyard for your pet to chill out with my 3 friendly dogs, short distance to trails, and if your dog is on the shy side, they can be on their own but still safe and happy.
About: Hi, I’m Nick. I have professionally worked with dogs for 7 years. My background includes; working for various dog daycares, providing dog training with companies and privately, dog walking, dog sitting and pet nutrition. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and your pup and providing a fun time for your furry friend. I’m currently working a full time job. I will only be available on my days off which currently are Saturday and Sunday. I am also available Fridays after 5 pm I absolutely love dogs of all shapes and sizes. I will always strive to be the best for each of their individual needs. I have a lot of energy and can keep up with young dogs. But I also have a dog who can be a bit timid at times so I will always take my time and make sure your fur baby is comfortable. Every dog is different and I will always change what I need to, to accommodate their personality and comfort zones. (Little side note) because of my experience in dog behavior management if it is something that would interest you, I would love introduce my dog to your pup and let them get some of they’re crazy energies out. Feel free to let me know if this is something of interest. I will only introduce them if pre-approved by owner
About: I have had pets for as long as I remember! From cats, to dogs to reptiles and almost everything in between. I currently have 2 dogs- one pug and one red heeler who are the highlight of days.

I have limited morning availability but the afternoons and evenings I have open availability I do have a smaller fully fenced in yard that is over 6 feet in height. I live in a neighborhood that is great for walks as traffic is very limited!
“Kelsey stayed in our home with our two high maintenance pups and went above and beyond taking care of them. We felt very comfortable with her caring for our boys and would definitely love her help in the future!”
About: I've been a Veterinary Assistant for 3 years and have been involved with animals for even longer. I have extensive experience in all sizes of dogs, from Chiweenies to Mastiffs. And experience from rasing puppies and kittens to caring for my cutie geriatric patients. . I also have experience caring for reptiles, small(er) mammals, birds, and even horses! . I am very confident in my ability to read your animals behavior and translate it into the words they can't say. My hours are pretty flexible at the moment as I work from 10-6 and am free on weekends! I'd love to squeeze in some time with some cuddly faces before and after that! I can medicate your babies as needed and make sure they're getting enriched while their parents are away! Can walk and play and ensure their food is fresh for the picking!
About: My 32 years' experience with pet care began at the early age of six, when my family and I took our Rottweiler puppy, Baron to weekly training classes for behavior, communication, personal and home protection. He was my best friend and amazing babysitter to my 2yo. sister (Read: 'Good Dog Carl'). And ever since then I've owned 4 dogs and a kitty before pursuing an education in the vet field. I bring several years of professional veterinary experience to pet care, including work as a Veterinary Assistant in a specialty oncology practice. I’m Fear Free Certified and comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors and animals with medical needs or medication routines. My veterinary background taught me how to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, comfort, and overall well-being, while staying calm and attentive when a pet needs extra support. Just as importantly, I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to provide dependable, patient, and compassionate care that helps your pet feel safe and gives you confidence while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I tailor each day around the individual pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and rest. I also make a point of observing behavior, appetite, energy level, and comfort so I can notice if anything seems out of the ordinary. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of consistent attention throughout the day. I tailor each visit or stay around the pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and rest. For overnight stays, I’m happy to follow the household schedule as closely as possible so your pet’s day feels familiar and predictable. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing with a favorite toy, or just relaxing together, my goal is to make sure your pet gets the attention, activity, and companionship they’re accustomed to while you’re away. I believe the safest and least stressful care starts with respecting each pet’s normal routine, personality, and environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established feeding, walking, medication, potty, sleeping, and household routines as closely as possible. My veterinary background has made me very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy level, and comfort. I’m Fear Free Certified and comfortable working patiently with pets who may be anxious, shy, senior, or need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. For walks and outings, I prioritize secure leashing, safe handling, awareness of surroundings, and avoiding unnecessary risks or interactions. During overnight stays and pet-sitting visits, I also pay close attention to doors, gates, medications, food restrictions, and any household instructions provided by the owner. If an unexpected medical situation were to occur, I’m comfortable staying calm, assessing the situation, contacting the owner and veterinary provider, and safely handling and transporting a pet for emergency care if necessary. Above all, I want owners to feel confident that their pet, home, and established routine will be treated with care and respect.
About: I've been around animals most of my life, with my own dog and cat and often visiting my grandparents farm and seeing the animals there. Ive pet sat for a variety of dogs and cats before even a horse and understand the multitude of personalities that come with them. I find joy in getting to know your pet and take the time understanding their body language and hearing what they have to say! I am a flexable chill animal lover who enjoys spending time with a furry friend :) I have a very flexable schedule which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet! Checking in for a walk or potty break is easy and can happen often! I always love going over your comfortably level and what you expect of me on the job! I appreciate finding out the lay of the land with your home and yard when house sitting/check ins and often take notes so ill remember!
About: I have a giant 110 pound dog and I have been walking him for years. I have a lot of experience with walking all types of dogs, big, small, reactive, and trained. I currently only do DoorDash deliveries and Instacart deliveries for income, so my schedule is flexible and open. This is what I’m looking to do for income. I won’t necessarily be able to bring the dogs to my house because one of my dogs is not too fond of other dogs, but I can walk your dogs and feed your cats.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Getchell
Geo is an absolute rock star! I was nervous to leave my 2 kitties for a recent trip to Oregon but Geovani turned out to be a real cat whisperer! My 12 yr old tortie is a real scaredy cat but in a matter of hours she came out of hiding and hung out with him in the living room. He played with the 2 year old male and managed to keep the peace between the 2 cats! He medicated and fed them as directed and thoroughly and regularly cleaned the litter boxes. He even watered the flowers on my balcony for me. My apartment was immaculate when I returned and the cats acted as though I had never left. Geo will definitely be my go-to for future house sitting and cat care!
Nikki did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs, Reuben and Frank! She was great with them, kept us updated with excellent communication, and sent us pictures while we were away, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy dogs and a clean, tidy house. We would absolutely recommend Nikki and would gladly have her watch Reuben and Frank again!
We’re so grateful for the amazing care she provided for our dogs. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated throughout the stay. Our dogs looked so relaxed and happy with her. She was gentle, patient, and truly treated them like her own. We would absolutely book with her again!
Emily did a great job for us. She came through for us at the last minute when our previously booked sitter cancelled on us. Our need was for 16 days to stay at our home with our two dogs and one of them being completely blind that requires eye drops every 8 hours. Emily responded to my rover request immediately and from there came over To meet our dogs etc. Our blind dog is very fearful and Emily managed him beautifully. One of Emily’s best qualities is she is a great communicator. She is responsive to emails, requests, questions etc. She sent us photos throughout her stay giving us assurance that everything was okay. She is responsible, hardworking, responsive and respectful. She genuinely loves animals and shows that through her interactions. You will see on Emily’s profile she is young in years but I can attest that she follows through and very responsible and reliable. I highly recommend Emily for your needed pet care.
Aurora is FANTASTIC. Our pooch was pamper and well cared for and the daily updates were thoughtful and appreciated. Our home was left in exceptional condition and she went above and beyond with extra walks and attention for our dog. We will absolutely book Aurora again.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Getchell walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Getchell maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Getchell 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!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
