“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we chose Kara! She was very helpful and communicative throughout the process and we felt comfortable leaving her with our cat Beans. I would recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!”
“Alexis was very attentive to our 3 cats. We will definitely book her again. Our cats range from young to old and they all loved her. She’s responsible and trustworthy.”
“Ash was the best of the best of the best hands down thumbs up. She showed my cats all the love she possibly could even though they were snobby about. Took great care to respect our home and wishes and checked in and conversed with me regularly. I felt fantastic about having her check in and care for our cats. Thank you so much Ash”

About: I've always had lots of love for pets since a young age. Growing up my family had a house of 2 dogs and 3 cats, which means a lot of bowls to be filled, yard and litter box to be cleaned, and snuggles to be given and received at the end of the night. My on-hand experiences have ranged since 2017 with my own pet sitting clients, worked as a receptionist at a vet local hospital, and as a caretaker at Petco. I understand the importance of treating pets as if they were my own. Safety, comfortability, and attention are my top priorities when I'm responsible for your beloved furry ones. I am a fresh graduate. My most recent schedule is 6am to 4:30pm Mon-Thurs in the Hellam township area. I am very available and more open Friday, Saturday and Sunday all day. In the past, I had my own senior cat (Sapphire) who I loved and cared for every day for 3 years until she passed onto the rainbow bridge. I personally understand how that bond and connection feels. Although my present living situation at an apartment doesn't allow pets, for the past two years I've been housesitting at my clients' homes. I respect and follow the guidelines of each and every one. During most of client's departure, I've collected or separated mail, trash is out on time, and ensured the home is cleaned for when they return. I enjoy sending daily updates through texting, photos, or videos to the owner with our activities from playing, walking, feeding and napping. Clear communication with dietary, medication, grooming and other needs is my responsibility. I will do everything to the best of my abilities to ensure a stress-free time for my clients and their pets.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and attentive dog lover who understands that pets are family. I love spending time with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, whether that means long walks, playtime, sticking to a routine, or just giving them extra cuddles and attention while you’re away. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and communicative, and I’ll always make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone new, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout their stay or visit. My goal is to make your dog feel as happy and stress-free as possible while giving you confidence that they’re being treated like family every step of the way! I work M-F 8am to 4:30pm. I can provide midday bathroom breaks since I live so close to where I work. I also work from home on Wednesdays. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. My yard is not fenced in but I have plenty of safe places to walk your dog.
“Misty was so great to our animals, our dog was barking at the first visit(we could hear her through our ring camera) but Misty took her time and made Clove feel safe. She came over to meet our dog and cat before we even left and she was so pleasant and nice to chat with. You can tell she has a heart for the animals that she works with and I would recommend her to anyone that asks! Great Job Misty!!!💯”
About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important.

About: I've always loved dogs but that love grew stronger once I adopted my own dog! He inspired me to take a chance on myself and begin working with dogs, professionally. I've had extensive training and care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve been working (professionally) with dogs for 5 years and caring for them is something that comes natural to me and is something I LOVE being able to do! I recently graduated from CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and am now Certified as a Dog Trainer! Every day is a good day when I’m around dogs :) I currently work full-time and am a foster/volunteer for a local rescue so weekends will be my main availability but can consider services during the week depending on my availability and your needs! Due to having my own dog and fostering dogs, I prefer to care for pets in their home. The health, care, safety, and comfortability of your furry family member is my top priority. Communication with clients is also very important to me because I understand how hard it can be to be away from your furry family member. I care and love for every animal as if they were my own!
About: Hi there! I bring a little extra patience and life experience to pet care. With my age comes a calm and steady presence that helps even the most shy or energetic pets feel comfortable and safe. I understand that every animal has their own personality and pace, and I take the time to meet them where they’re at—whether that’s lots of play, a gentle walk, or quiet company. What sets me apart is the care and consistency I bring, treating your pets like my own and making sure you can feel confident while you’re away. I work Monday through Thursday. My location is my employment is in Mount Joy. My kids are all Grown up and drive now - so I have free time to help others out. I love animals and can’t wait to cuddle yours. . I would Love to watch the animals at the location of the persons home for their comfort. However, If not possible we would have to leash the dogs at our house as we do not have a fenced in yard. Our mini golden doodle is on a gps collar since he’s smaller.
About: I’ve had cats all of my life, and have dog-sat for friends, neighbors, and coworkers since becoming an adult. My own little orange kitty has many medical adventures—so I’m also very used to administering medicine to cats. I have flexibility in my work hours and can work around routine meetings - allowing for flexibility when caring for our loved ones! I know some furballs need more together time than others so also have a job where I can work virtually too! I love working under instruction—every pet is different and needs different attention and affection! I love to give cuddles and have playtime, and am very detail-oriented when taking care of pets.
About: I’ve lived with dogs/cats my entire life. I have checked in, played, fed, given meds and potty breaks to dogs of two other families before. STARTING AUGUST 18: I will be starting my clinical rotations at WellSpan hospitals and other sites. This means during weekdays I will not be available from 6am-3:30pm or even later depending what site I am at that day (i have rotations in Gettysburg). Weekends I am available unless said otherwise! Thank you! I’m a college student on summer break, so I’m available a lot of the time! I let out and play with another dog during weekday mornings, so anytime after that! Although I have an unfenced yard, I live on a dead end road with not a lot of traffic. I have a huge field behind my house where I can play with your pets. I have a friendly Springer Spaniel who can keep your dog company. I can easily crate if needed. Will not walk or let dogs out to potty without a leash. Will play unleashed in field.
About: Hours of availability on the weekends, Friday 5pm-Sun 9pm. Possibly before 5 on fridays depending on location. I Love dogs, and have had 3 jack Russell terriers and 2 German short haired pointers and now 2 Labrador retrievers. I want to make it easy for pet owners to do things and not have to worry about their pet. I have also been in charge of the grooming(nails,bathing etc) since I was young. I feel I can tell how/what dogs want, they call me the dog whisperer. Just want all dogs/animals to love me :) We now adopted 3 kittens in the last 6 years since they always find us. Let me care for your dog/cat while you enjoy yourself. I have had other animals, not just dogs, as I care for animals in general(fish,guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, birds, cats). I have always been the dependable Neighbor and was always asked to watch the neighbors animals while they were away. I know how hard it is to find a caring person to watch your pet, instead of a kennel. I also have had to give my first dog insulin shots 2xs a day, also have given her medicine daily. Also give medicine/supplements to my current pets. Let me be that person.

Kara was absolutely amazing! My Newfie tends to be on the a little bit more standoffish and he loved Kara from the word go, and Knox just loves everyone. She was great with communication and the pics were hilarious. We will be using her in the future for the boys 💚

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.

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.
