About: I’ve had hands on experience with animals my whole life, I have experienced feeding, walking, grooming, exercise. Monitoring their health in a safe loving environment. Dog walking fits well into my schedule because I work part-time, which gives me flexibility to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend walks. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure I arrive on time and can give each dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. If I have any scheduling conflicts, I communicate with owners in advance. I understand that trust is essential when caring for someone’s pet and home. I treat every home with respect and follow care instructions exactly as provided. I make safety my top priority by keeping doors and gates secure, supervising pets, avoiding unsafe situations during dog walks and ensuring they always have fresh food, water and a clean environment.
“This is the second time I've asked him to take care of my cat. He is a reliable person. He kept me informed of any changes to visiting times. I was happy to know that my shy cat had finally met him!”
“Allyson was so good with my boys! She went above and beyond for them. She walked them, fed them, gave them their medicine and hung out with them outside during the nice weather days. I got pictures every visit to show how happy they were with her taking care of them. Already booked Allyson for my next trip! Thanks again for being great!”
“Brianna was an outstanding cat sitter! She was very communicative and really took the time to get to know my babies before I even left town. She was patient with my shy girl and understood she just needed some time to feel her out. She made sure water bowls were filled and even cleaned their food bowls, which was above what I was expecting. I received several pictures during the visit and could tell they were comfortable. I would recommend Bri to those of you with kitties. 10/10”
“Brooke is Amazing 10/10 she’s super responsible and timely she loved on my fur babies and gave attention and care to each one I have 4 dogs and 1 cat she did amazing with them!!!!!”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including dogs, cats, and birds, so caring for pets has been a big part of my life from an early age. Over the years I’ve developed a calm, patient l approach to training and have successfully worked on manners and basic cues with every pet I’ve owned. I recently finished my master’s degree at Carnegie Mellon University and now work in the entertainment industry, which gives me a flexible, creative schedule and a strong sense of responsibility and communication. I share my life with a 3‑year‑old beagle named Patti LuPup, and we love spending time in nature together exploring trails and parks. Because I’m so used to reading different animal personalities, I’m comfortable with shy, energetic, or quirky pets and always focus on making them feel safe, engaged, and loved. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, active playtime, or quiet company, I’ll treat your pet like part of my own family. I am currently in between work after finishing my masters program, so my availability is flexible as I am working freelance at the moment. I am very happy to coordinate to best service you! I have a calm beagle of my own, and we have a large fenced in yard. Many parks are close by with trails and dog parks.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, patient dog lover who understands that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with dedicated dog parks, walking paths, and plenty of green space for safe exercise and bathroom breaks. My goal is to make every visit fun, stress-free, and as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. Communication is important to me, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages during every visit or walk. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I most often work from home and have scheduling flexibility. Upon a service request if able to do so i can rearrange my schedule accommodate pet care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and any special routines that help your pet feel at home. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll provide a clean, calm, and secure environment with plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I've had animals since I was a teenager, always responsible for taking care of them... I'm that person at a party that would rather hang out with the pet rather than the people. I currently stay home and help take care of my 90 year old father in law. I've got plenty of time during my day to get out and care for some critters! Depending on what the client wants, I will adhere to their preferences... Letting them run around a fenced in yard, throwing toys, walking on a leash is all fine with me. It's whatever the client prefers.
About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. I have looked after dogs of all sizes. I thoroughly enjoy the presence of puppies and have had the pleasure of training puppies, caring for elder dogs, and everything in between I am a recent graduate looking to keep busy by fulfilling a passion of mine. I am currently in the process of a gap year as I plan on pursuing a graduate degree in the future. Therefore, I have pretty open availability at the moment. I cannot offer a stay at my current residence, but I am open house sitting, daily check ins, walks, or anything else to make fulfill your pets needs.
“I booked Sarah through Rover to check in on my pets while I was on vacation, and she was amazing! She visited daily, walked Yogi three times a day, and made sure Luna was happy and cared for. I loved getting picture updates, and she contacted me right away with any concerns. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were well cared for, which let me really enjoy my trip. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of family friend’s cats and dogs for years. Dogs ranging from elderly miniature schnauzer doodles to big wild golden retreiver puppies. I’ll take great care of your pets and home. When I’m away from my animals while I’m at school I like to get my fill of puppy/kitty time through pet sitting. I’m currently taking classes at the College of Wooster- I am a junior education and history major. This makes me available for drop ins and walks most of the day. I will do anything that is instructed for your animals. For walks I’m willing to walk them up to 2 miles. If I dog sit while you are away I would only need to leave them for classes which would never be more than 2 hours at a time.
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, communication, and attention to detail. I make sure pet parents feel completely comfortable by sending regular updates and photos after every visit. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous dogs and always let them warm up at their own pace. I stick closely to your pet’s routine so they feel safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I have evenings available after work to take care of your pets! I have full availability on Wednesdays. I have a lot of availability on weekends and am willing to be flexible with your schedule to make sure we set something up that is perfect for your pet! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m also very respectful of your home — I keep everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. After each visit, I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and have peace of mind.
“Lisa is great! She's very communicative, responsible, and trustworthy. She looked after our cats while we were on a long vacation over the holidays. She checked in with us regularly and sent lots of pictures. She even grabbed our mail for us, which was a HUGE help! We were totally at ease knowing Lisa was there – we'll definitely use her again!”
About: I began working with animals in 2019 as a behavioral care technician at a local animal shelter. This has helped me fine-tune my work to approach each animal on a case by case basis as each animal has specific needs and wants based on their personalities . I have experience in behavioral care, medication administration, exercise and have a certification in positive reinforcement with a clicker training course. I lead with empathy and genuine love for all animals. My previous pet sitting experience has spanned over the past six years. Most of my previous experience has been with dogs and cats, but I am open to care for all types of animals as I am life long learner and lover of all things animal related! I have a pretty diverse background as I have been in cancer research for 8+ years and currently am working as a senior caregiver part-time. I work remote and have a lot of flexibility throughout the week to accommodate any type of schedule. I am available early morning midday as well as evening and late night. Each animal and each environment is different so I lead with good communication on how each family desires their home and pets to be cared for.
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
About: When it comes to pet sitting, my extensive experience and deep love for dogs truly set me apart. I've been around dogs since I was a baby and have been taking care of them for over 15 years. This lifelong familiarity with dogs has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviors. In addition to my experience, I have special skills in both training puppies and providing care for senior dogs. I am well-versed in the unique requirements of each life stage, ensuring that your pet receives the appropriate attention and care. Currently, I have a 1.5-year-old sweet Bernedoodle who is well-socialized and loves both cats and dogs. This personal experience further enhances my ability to provide a loving and comfortable environment for your pets. Whether it's playtime, training, or senior care, I am dedicated to offering the best possible care for your furry family members. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day starts with dedicated time for feeding, walking, and playing with my dog, ensuring they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need. Throughout the day, I incorporate short training sessions and regular bathroom breaks to maintain a structured schedule. In addition to daily care, my weekly routine includes more extensive activities such as grooming, longer outdoor adventures, and socialization opportunities with other pets. I make sure to set aside time for veterinary visits and any necessary health check-ups. Having a consistent routine not only keeps my own dog happy and healthy but also ensures that I am always prepared to provide top-notch care for other pets as well. My experience with my Bernedoodle has taught me the importance of maintaining a balanced and enriching routine, which I apply to all the pets I care for. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment where they feel comfortable and loved. My home is pet-friendly, with plenty of space for them to play and relax. I ensure that each pet has their own designated area with their bed, toys, and food/water bowls. Regular walks, playtime, and training sessions are part of the daily routine, along with lots of affection and attention. I also keep a close eye on their health and well-being, making sure they are happy and stress-free. When providing care in a client’s home, I strive to maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize any disruption. I follow the feeding schedule, walk times, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I spend quality time with the pets, ensuring they get enough exercise, play, and companionship. I am also attentive to the home's security and cleanliness, treating it with the utmost respect. Whether it's administering medication, handling special dietary needs, or providing extra cuddles, I make sure every pet receives personalized and loving care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gibsonia
Abigail is great! Our young Chihuahua (also named Abigail) is very leery of new people. Abigail took the time to get to know her and build trust. To us that is priceless. Our dog also has Addison's disease, and it is comforting to know Abigail is a nurse and comfortable giving her needed daily meds. We highly recommend her even if it means sharing her with others. You won't regret choosing her to care for your beloved pets.

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.
