“Bridgette was awesome! She took excellent care of our cat. She played with him left us tons of pics and let us know how he was each day she stopped in for him. Bridgette was super helpful with remembering things we could us help with that we forgot! Like taking the trash down on trash night and grabbing our mail for us. I highly recommend her and will book with her in the future! Thank you Bridgette from us and Poe 💕”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs around the house which has helped me form a deep love for all pets. I have stayed overnight and visited during the day for friends and family who needed their pets taken care of (both cats and dogs). I have even fostered a service puppy in training for a service dog organization. I love all fur babies like they are my own. Currently, I am a college student who lives at home so I have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends. I can take care of your pet anytime from 11am-10pm. I’ll do anything from letting your pet out, going on a walk with them, socializing them with other pets or simply giving them some extra love. I am also able to transport them wherever they need to go, whether that is to the groomer, vet, or even a trail to go for a walk outside of their home.

“Laurel did a great job with our dog Reece and disabled cat Bobbie! We were worried how Reece would do with a new person coming into our home without us there. Laurel did great giving him time and space, he quickly warmed up to her! Having a disabled cat often makes it hard to find someone who will take care of their needs, Lauel did not hesitate and took such good care of her! Laurel was great with communicating with us and sending pictures. We will definitely be booking with Laurel in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a child all the way up until middle age. And I truly enjoy every time I see a dog or a cat. They truly bring me joy and happiness. I am recently retired with a lot of free time and love the opportunity to spend it with dogs and cats of any kind 😍 I would consider using my home for my clients, but that is not my preference necessarily. I love the opportunity to make visits, do general care, including walking, feeding, bathing, and any other tasks

“Hollis was very quick to respond and good natured. I feel safe knowing she’s punctual and experienced with my pups! My pups LOVE HER. Even on the first meeting they just loved spending time with her. She takes fun photos and really gets to know the dog!”
About: My care is personalized to the dog based on our (me & the dog) relationship, depending on how me and the dog click. Dogs are all different and they tell us in their own way what they need. I’m hear to listen. The time with the dog is about the dog, that simple. I have taken care of an array of dogs from terriers to collies. I have taken care of special needs dogs who have had a history of abuse so I know how to handle uneasy animals with trust issues. As long as I have a chance to meet the dogs and build a relationship with them so they trust me they will have the best time possible and love every second. Yes

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Girard stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Girard 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.
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 .

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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
