About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with a natural ability to connect to every pup I meet <3 they instantly warm up to me and rarely leave my side. I'm always attentive to their needs and quick to notice any changes in their behavior or health, I will always make sure they feel comfortable, safe and loved while their owners are away. I will always treat every dog like it's family My goal is to be a full time pet sitter so I have all the free time to give your pup the attention he/she needs! My backyard has space for them to play, sunbathe, and do their business safely, If it's in a client's home I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and safe.
“David did an excellent job with Abby. She was happy when we got home and from the pictures David sent after each visit she looked quite content. I knew David was going to be a hit when Abby came right up to him at the first meeting, she doesn't like anyone. I am definitely hiring David again when we do our 32 day cruise in April.”
About: I've lived with animals all my life. I have the most experience with dogs. When I was growing up, my family had no less than 4 dogs at a time. I have experience handling large and small dogs. Moderate experience with puppies. Some experience with cats and kittens. I have experience with bully breeds as well and comfortable handling them. I love animals and know that they deserve all the time and attention in the world. I know that sometimes life gets in the way of that. I'm here to love on your animals, not to judge your lifestyle. Additional services may be available after a brief trial period with your pet depending on circumstances. I work from home Monday to Friday during the day with options to step away as needed. Evenings and weekends usually free to care for your babies. I have 3 senior dogs- a great Dane, a Mastiff, and a border Collie mix. My mother-in-law has a Chihuahua mix that also loves with us. They love getting out for the occasional car ride for a pup cup or trip to the store for new toys. I'm also currently fostering a 6 month old pup that had been hit by a car last December and left on the side of the road. While she has healed physically, we're working on socializing and gaining her trust. I don't currently offer petsitting in my home but may be open to it after getting to know a client and their furbabies and deciding if that would be a good fit for everyone.
About: In my childhood and youth I spent a lot of time sitting with my friends' cats, also I had my own cat, she died at 16 years old. I'm still sad about her. Now I am retired and have a lot of free time to help people and enjoy my own life. My name is Olga. I am very organized, I love punctuality, order and cleanliness. I worked in a nursing home for 16 years and have now decided to become a pensioner myself and I have the time, desire and opportunity to take care of pets. I love to have new experiences and explore new places. But I also love being alone and it doesn’t get boring for me. I don't have pets because I didn't have time to take care of them, but now I can do it.
About: I've been dog sitting since I was 15 years old, from staying overnight to drop ins. I love giving all the animals the care they need so they are comfortable when their owners are gone. I work full time and have a second job in the evenings as well, but I can check on pets before 7a and around 1p, as well as after 8p! The weekends I have more availability throughout the day! Working as a Veterinary Technician Assistant, I am knowledgeable in proper feeding, hydration, play time, and safety for your pets as well as cleaning up messes they could possibly make!
“Loved her help with my pup! She would drop in to check on him while I was at work and send me pics. Rumple seemed to really like her ? She was very professional and communicated well. I would definitely work with her again!”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of pets (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chickens) since i was 13. I have stayed over at night as well as checked on pets during the day. I always walk, feed, and sometimes bathe pets as well as spend quality time with them while their parents are away. I am a teacher, so I work 7:30-4:30 Monday to Thursday, but can take time to stop by the home when necessary and am more than happy to stay weekends and the night! In client homes, I will follow whatever instructions left (if pet needs to be crated or stay in a certain area). Pets will always be walked on a leash and will be within eyesight at all times.
“My babies were well taken care of. Marin sent me pictures with each visit and I can tell by the pictures that my my dogs were warming up to her and liked her since they were sitting in her lap. I will seriously consider booking Marin again for our future needs.”
About: I’m a genuine dog lover who believes all dogs are entitled to attention and love! I love walking dogs, playing fetch, and hanging out with them. I’m also very conscientious of other dogs and am committed to keeping yours safe. I am currently going to grad school and have extra time to spend with your pups. I can do anything from early mornings to evenings. I will treat your home like my own! I always make sure everything is locked up, poop bags are put away, and your dog is content before I leave.
About: I am an animal lover. I fully understand the stress and worry of making sure your baby is in good hands while you go to work, vacation, or just a get away. I can promise your baby is in great hands with me. I am currently working part time so I figured in my free time why not take care of and play with/walk some fluffy friends. I have two baby's myself at home so I’d feel more comfortable taking care of your baby’s at your home. Personally my dogs get stressed when they’re somewhere they are not used to, it would hurt my heart to see your dog stressed.
About: i’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, since i was 12. as long as your furbaby is with me, they will feel like your love never left (almost like being at a grandma’s house) i’m currently working from home and i have plenty of time to watch your fur babies, whether it be weekdays or weekends, im mostly always available. i live in an apartment complex and i’m very familiar with leashes and body language to keep your pupper safe. and i would always try to keep their routine the same and add a little more excitement/enrichment.
About: I have experience with different dog breeds and training styles. I’ve helped in whelping, walking, kennel training, and companion care. So happy to be able to help with your care needs. I work from home full time. Boarding and drop ins are available daily. Early raisers are welcome as well as those who get the zoomies after bedtime. I work remote. I’m home full time to keep your babies company. I have a large gated fenced side and backyard. I have a gated pet play room, a large kennel if you need, and garage area for exercise. There are no cables or wiring on the floors for pet safety. The pet play room has camera access as requested.

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 Golden Valley 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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 .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
