About: My passion for taking care of animals started at a young age. I have always had dogs and cats, including my Blue Heeler and Husky that I currently have. I enjoy being able to learn new animals, and am very patient while allowing them to learn me as well. With that being said, I would love nothing more than to be able to create a bond with your best friend(s)! I currently work full-time, but will always have time to be with your animals. If I feel like I wouldn't be able to give your furry friends the quality of time and care that they need, I will not allow myself to accept the service ahead of time. I believe in the ability to communicate and be fully transparent with everything that involves our animal families. I have plenty of toys, and bedding areas situated for your animals. If they need more secluded places, we can also accommodate for that as well. I will work my best to meet your needs and expectations for your fur babies.
About: I'm a dependable, caring pet sitter who understands that every dog and cat has their own unique personality and routine. I grew up with dogs and have been a dog owner myself for the past 8 years, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I take the time to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a specific feeding schedule, I treat every pet with the same care and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, compassionate care and keeping you updated along the way. Around here, tail wags and happy purrs fit right into my daily routine! I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore. Whether we're exploring the neighborhood on a walk, playing fetch, tossing around a favorite toy, or relaxing on the couch for some cuddle time, I'm happiest when I have furry company. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I have a fully fenced yard, plus two sweet, friendly fur babies to keep them company if they enjoy having playmates! I'm happy to crate your pet if that's part of their normal routine or if you prefer. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with lots of love, attention, snuggles, and—if approved by you—a few well-earned treats!
About: I have had pets since i was a young girl. I love all animals and i am now retired and looking for something i enjoy doing. I have had experience with 2 senior rescue dachshunds which required extra care. From hounds to dachshunds to cats fish horses., many many years of experience. Since i do not have children of my own , my pets were my kiddos. I am retired so i have ample time. I enjoy being around animals as i find it very much like therapy. There is no love like that of an animal. My last dachshund passed over the rainbow bridge. I hope soon i will find another dachshund to love and take care of and add to my family.
About: I have cared for animals for over 10 years now. I have raised dogs and cats from birth to adulthood and know all the ends and outs of caring for your fur babies! I am an active person so your animal will receive top notch attention. I also have training in emergency situations regarding animals. I am flexible with my schedule and am able to transport dogs to open areas to run them around. When they come back home they will surely be all tuckered out from the fun we had that day. All I ask is for a detailed plan and specifications for what you would like for your dog or cat’s day to look like. Please feel free to contact me at any time! I am currently in school so I am able to see your babies before and after school! Weekends I am able to do more so we will have a lot of play time! I have a fenced in yard now so my babies are able to run around and play with each other. The same goes for your babies! I want to keep their schedule as much the same when you're away and if you were there!
“Anna was very attentive and made my sweet boy happy! I appreciate the care and her openness to add another visit at the last minute. I hope she will be willing to come back in the future as our regular sitter! Thank you so much!! 🥰”
About: Animals have been a lifelong passion of mine, and I bring over five years of hands-on veterinary experience to every pet-sitting visit. My background includes emergency and urgent veterinary care, senior and special-needs pets, medication administration, and caring for animals with a wide range of personalities and needs. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I take the time to learn their individual routines, personalities, and preferences so they can enjoy familiar surroundings and personalized attention. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, my goal is to make their time with me as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe great pet care is about more than feeding and walking. It's about patience, attentiveness, trust, and genuinely enjoying the animals in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! I work a rotating schedule at a veterinary clinic while pursuing my second master's degree. My workdays and days off vary each week, often giving me several consecutive days off and flexibility for pet care. I keep my Rover calendar updated to reflect my availability and am happy to coordinate visits, walks, and extended care around my schedule. Caring for animals is both my profession and my passion! With nearly five years of hands-on veterinary experience, I'm comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages, and medical needs. My experience includes administering medications and injections, recognizing signs of illness, and caring for frightened, anxious, and rescued animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medical attention, playtime, or simply a reassuring presence, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. You tell me what works best for your pet, and I'll do my best to maintain that routine while you're away.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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 .
