“Mary has checked in on my two cats a few times now. She seems to be great with them based on the cute pictures I get! She’s been available, even on short notice, and very reliable.”
“Heather was really wonderful. I have 2 dogs who couldn't be more different, a senior hound and a 5 yr old malinois. She did great with both of them. Heather was willing to go above and beyond with the care of the dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Gina helped us out with a super last minute request and still went the extra mile to make sure our boys were well cared for while we were away. She was patient, communicative, professional, thoughtful, and so sweet. We would definitely use Gina in the future!”
About: Lifelong dog owner with experience in daily care, grooming, and health maintenance. Passionate about providing love, structure, and a safe environment for any dog in need. I’m currently working full time with more than enough time to spend playing with and or walking any dog in both the morning and evenings. Reliable and caring dog walking and check-in services focused on safety, trust, and personalized attention. I always ensure your pet feels secure, happy, well-cared for, and stress free.
“Kristina took care of our shy cat for the first time this past weekend. It's not easy to care for an animal that would rather hide from you than interact, and Kristina dealt with her well. She was friendly, came over when promised, and cared for Sophie and our house well.”
About: I am a trained canine coach and have 5 years of experience working professionally at a high end dog daycare facility. I have worked with dogs in play rooms as small as teacup chihuahuas, to as large as great danes, from as ginger as senior dogs, to as strong as young cane corsos. And, of course, I have loved each and every individual one. I am a highschool English and Language Arts teacher for Dr. Howard Fuller Collegiate Academy. With the summers being free, it clears my schedule for your pup! I am a trained dog professional, so I know how to handle any and all types of temperaments when it comes to the personality of your dog. I have knowledge of all different kinds of breeds and have training in how to appropriately and safely handle dogs in all situations from crate training, to proper feeding, to leash training, and even new tricks!
About: I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone. With over 15 years of experience dog sitting/walking for friends and clients I understand the importance of trusting someone with your pet. You, as well as your pet, need someone you feel comfortable with. I have dog sat for a range of dogs from a 70 pound lab to a 5 pound chihuahua. I also have experience with a wide range of ages from puppies to senior dogs. I am involved in a rescue that works with senior and special need pups and am currently fostering one of the rescue dogs. I also have one dog of my own so I know the value of having someone watch your pets as if they were their own. As a person who loves animals, I am reminded every day the reason these four legged creatures become such an important part of our family. I have a somewhat flexible schedule so am available for stop in visits and walks as well as house sitting. I am willing to work with your schedule. I currently am not taking pets in my home. I am willing to come over for walks or potty breaks at your house if needed.
“Sarah did an excellent job with my pups (3) and my daughters dog. She handled the challenge of 4 large dogs without a problem and was flexible with our and their needs. She came out to visit prior to our trip so she could meet the dogs. I had complete comfort and confidence leaving them in her care.”
About: I love walking and with a dog it's even better! I enjoy being outside and spending time with dogs. I will treat your dog as if it were my own, give him/her special attention, and a walk/home while you are away. Dogs have a special place in my heart and I enjoy spending time with other people's dogs, taking them for walks, and giving your dog love and attention. I have had experience walking dogs and taking care of dogs throughout my life. I have 2 rescue dogs are both beagles. I am an avid outdoor enthusiast and love taking them for hikes in the woods, on trails in state parks, and around the neighborhood. I am available for all the services Rover offers. I can board/watch your dogs at my home. I would love to meet you and your dog! I am a teacher and love coming home to my 2 dogs. We spend a lot of time outside and go for two walks a day. I have a fenced in backyard that is about a 1/2 of an acre. Our fence is 6 feet high. I have two dogs myself, so we have lots of treats and toys as well as extra dog beds. I am also a foster for the Humane Society, Midwest BREW, and Fluffy Dog Wellness & Rescue. I have fostered over 20 dogs in my home of all different breeds and ages. I find it really rewarding!
About: My first few memories have been with caring for animals. I grew up in a family that rescued dogs and my mom became a dog groomer when I turned age 7. From there I developed my love and passion caring for pets. I began dog sitting around the age of 14 for my family pets. I have experience from ages 8-weeks to senior, ailments and illnesses, couch potatoes to the problem child; I care for them all 😊 I’ve been pet sitting for other families since 2016. I treat all the fur babies I care for as family. I had also worked for a small business pet store from 2015-2023. Through those years, I had daily interactions with many different types of dogs. I did return to working at that same store January of 2025 as the receptionist/assistant in the grooming salon. I am gone working Tuesday-Friday from 8am until 3:30pm. My knowledge in nutrition, behavior, and overall care is extensive. I can’t wait to connect further to see if I’m the right fit for your fur babies! Disclaimer- I do not have pets of my own (for bookings requiring no other friends during their stay). My Odin passed away November of 2025 and I don’t have the heart to take down his profile. I work Tuesday-Friday and am gone the hours of 8am-3:30pm. My husband works 3rd shift, so he is home (asleep) in case of an emergency while I am gone. My priority is your pets’ safety and comfortably. I’m always willing to see if I can make arrangements to help accommodate to your pets’ needs.
About: I've been taking care of dogs most of my life. We have fostered many types dogs, mainly ones who have needed rehabilitations from an injury or abuse. Our family was part of the cocker spaniel rescue for ten years. We became known for our foster failures; we just loved them so much. Our neighbors would always come for us if they needed any type of help caring for their dogs, and even brining us the stray ones they would find. I am passionate about caring for dogs. My dream would be to open up my own rescue one day. I will treat your dog just like my own and make sure they are treated right. I currently have a full-time job, so my availability would be evenings and weekends. I have a pretty flexible schedule. Just let me know what works best for you and we can set something up. I would care for a pet in clients home by following the rules and expectations of the home, and what the client would like to have done.

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 Grafton 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 Grafton 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 .
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.
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.
To find sitters in Grafton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
