“The Cheyenne was great with our two boys, Valentino and Sly.. they both seem to take a very nice liking to her. She was on time. She was neat. She took care of the boys. We use this one overnight with her as a trial for the near future where we need her for almost a week and have no reservations about booking her to watch our boys again and stay over in our home. Thank you Cheyenne!!!”

About: I started watching pets for family and friends in the beginning of high school as a way to make extra money, and over the years I have gained experience taking care of dogs and making sure they are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have also grown up caring for three dogs of my own, so I understand how much love, attention, and responsibility goes into taking care of pets. I currently work part-time, so pet sitting fits into my schedule really well. I have flexibility around my work hours and would love to use that time to take care of pets. I’ve always loved animals and have three dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for them and making sure they get plenty of attention. I think pet sitting would be a fun way to spend my free time while also earning some extra money. When I’m taking care of pets in their home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and getting the attention they need. I follow whatever routine the owner has for them, like feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them lots of love. I’ll also make sure they have fresh water and that everything is cleaned up. I want the pets to feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away!
“Anna was amazing with my Sphynx. She checked on him every day and even went above and beyond with an unfortunate situation that happened in my house. I honestly can't thank her enough.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm, I cared for everything from small livestock to beloved family pets, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and personalities. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, pot-bellied pigs, sheep, goats, horses, donkeys, cows, reptiles, and amphibians. Most recently, I've provided care for senior dogs and understand the extra patience, compassion, and attention they need as they age. My diverse background allows me to confidently care for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and life stages. Pet care fits well into my current routine. I'm currently attending school to become an airline pilot, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. For house sitting and overnight stays, some advance coordination may be needed since I'm a single dad. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and accommodating whenever possible. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, I treat your animals, property, and routines with the utmost respect. I take the time to learn each pet's unique needs, maintain consistent routines, and provide attentive care to help them feel secure and happy. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their furry family members are being cared for with kindness, dignity, and genuine affection.

I provide attentive, respectful care in your pet’s own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment.

“Maria is the best! This is the 3rd time I have used her. My dog Echo is so comfortable around her and is happy to see her. I don’t worry about leaving Echo when Maria is taking care of her.”
“My dogs were truly in excellent care. I feel like they were on a mini vacation of their own. Every check in we got several pictures. If you are looking for exceptional care for your pets Jeffrey is the person for your fur kids.”
“Macie provided six days of drop-in visits for my two cats this week. What a super sitter! She was very punctual, and when her schedule needed to vary at all, she let me know ahead of time. She had every characteristic you want to see and experience in an ideal sitter. She was reliable, conscientious, thorough, and highly communicative. She sent Rover report cards immediately following each visit and asked good questions when needed. She made sure to follow all instructions about food, water, and litter box care and did a great job relaying important details about each of these areas. I looked forward to her detailed reports three times a day, and she shared fantastic photos each time. I felt assured my cats were in great hands. Macie is an outstanding sitter, and it is easy to give her a high recommendation.”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, Rabbits, sugar gliders. Young, old, special needs. I do it all. I believe pets are like children, they love to learn. I am recently retired so I can devote as much time as needed for your furry ( not so furry) babies. A lot of love to give. I prefer to sit in the clients home as I feel the pet will be less nervous or anxious in familiar surroundings. I like the pet to get to know me in their own time. Trust is earned.
About: Feel free to use my code for $20 credit toward your first booking for new users! ROSEH82648 I have grown up with big and little dogs since I was young, and cats since middle school. I’ve always loved animals. Since moving away for college, I’ve dog sat for many pet parents in the area, from senior dogs with medications to puppies (already potty trained), and cats old and young. While between contracts and working at a daycare, I have a very open schedule to animal sit when my work day is over in Lyndhurst. I have a lot of experience working with children and am fully aware that your fur babies should be no differently taken care of in the love and care provided. I have experience with muzzled dogs and crated dogs and am willing to do what makes you, the owner/dog/cat parent happy and comfortable (must be potty trained)
About: I'm home 22 out of 24 hours in the day. I've had at least 4 pets at all times for as long as I can remember. From dogs, to cats, bantam chickens, lop-eared and Angora bunnies, hamsters, African frogs, turtles, to my sweet potbelly pig, Carnita ("Nita"). Life feels fullest when animals are part of my daily routine. Recently, my Nita unexpectedly passed away (10/26/23). She was like a child to me. Although she left behind 1 dog and 2 cats, the house feels much emptier. Buddy, the dog, says he'd love some company to pick up the mood & keep his heart young. 😌 *In effort to maintain a balanced environment, I require a two (2) night minimum for boarding (2 day min. for daycare)* I work from home; I have plenty of time in-between Zoom calls to love on and attend to your little darlings. Permitting I have a few days notice, I will gladly care for yours during the week & on weekends too. I live in a small gated community in Vero Beach. My yard is not fenced; however, I can/do leash them up as often as needed for potty breaks and longer walks 1-2x daily (anywhere from 1.5-4 miles each go). I run too. My own dog is a little beyond his running days, so I use a jogger. Depending on your pup's activity level, they could run alongside me, or possibly hitch a ride in the stroller! In Your Home (house sitting or drop ins): I am happy to abide by your current schedule, making the transition of your trip easy on your fur babies. I am also resourceful, and will find the best outdoor fun for them, in the case that they need some fun distractions to tire them out!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gifford
I couldn't have asked for a better experience for (me) my cats. Victoria was punctual and provided lots of pictures and information about how the cats were doing and what they were up to. I never worried about being gone because I believe she truly cares about my cats and the service she provides. I am happy to have found her and so are my cats!
Jean was terrific! She took care of our two cats while we were travelling. Jean kept me updated on each visit and sent photos. All was well and in good order when we returned home. It was comforting to know that our cats were well cared for and felt comfortable with Jean while we were away. I am so happy to have found her.

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.

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 .

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 .
