About: I’ve been around dogs since I was born. I was raised around a husky-collie, yorkies, and mini schnauzers. I have cared for my family members pets as well. My most recent experience stems from volunteering at an animal shelter. I would exercise dogs of various of temperaments and breeds. I am currently an online college student so I have plenty of time and energy to hang out with your pals! I’m free week days so that time while you’re away at work I can give your dog a happy distraction for a bit until you come home! I find working within a dog’s comfort zone works the best. Whatever they’re happy with while also being safe is the environment I’ll provided. That could be avoiding other dogs or taking slower walks. Whatever is needed I’ll do!

I’ve always helped taken care of the family dogs growing up. I work 3 times a week and have school but my schedule is very flexible and I can adjust it around based on what I have going on. Any pet in my home that’s not mine would be treated like my own pets. They would be taken care of all the time. The same would apply in someone else’s home. I would follow a schedule feeding and letting the pets out just like I do with my own.

About: Yes! That makes your profile sound way more versatile. I’d work it in without making it feel like a résumé. Hi pet parents! 🐾 I’ve been caring for animals since my junior year of high school, and caring for pets has continued to be one of my favorite things to do. I have experience with a variety of animals, including but not limited to dogs, cats, rodents, and other small or exotic pets. I’m always open to new experiences and learning how to care for different breeds, personalities, and types of pets. I currently have one dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can genuinely trust. I’ve personally potty trained my dog and have experience caring for pets with different routines, energy levels, and needs. My availability varies from day to day because I’m currently in school, but I’m always open to helping whenever my schedule allows. Whether you need someone for a quick potty break, a walk, feeding, playtime, or help with your pet’s regular daily routine, I’m happy to help! I’m comfortable following the routine you have established for your pet, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and downtime. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. I have nearby parks and a dog park available for pets who enjoy getting outside, and I’m happy to provide plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment when appropriate. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, care, and respect. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away, and I’m happy to provide updates so you can have peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and help with whatever they need! 🐶🐱🐹❤️ Since I’m currently in school, my availability changes depending on my class schedule. I’m flexible and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m available for care on days and times when I’m not in class, and I’m always happy to discuss availability in advance. I focus on making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m also comfortable providing care in the client’s home when requested.

About: Animals have always had my heart. I truly believe every pet deserves to be spoiled with love, kindness, and the best care possible. I have an elderly dog of my own and have raised several puppies, so I understand the extra patience and care that both senior dogs and little ones need. I'll treat your furry family member like they're my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable from the moment we meet. Also, I am a runner. I love to run and if any of your dogs need extra exercise I would love to get one of my runs done with your dog! I am a college student looking for work that I love. Caring for pets doesn’t even feel like working. I will fit in as much as I can as my schedule allows! For sitting or drop-ins, I like to ask as many questions as possible and maybe meet the pet beforehand so that they feel comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
