“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She went above and beyond in every way and treated our dogs like they were her own. She kept us updated, made sure they were well cared for, and gave us complete peace of mind while i was away. What really stood out was is she even walked our dogs indoors when the weather wasn’t ideal to make sure they still got exercise and stimulation. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. Five stars all the way”
About: “I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and currently care for dogs and cats of my own. I have experience with pets of all ages — from energetic young dogs to senior pets who require daily medication and extra patience. I’ve also helped pet sit for friends and family and have cared for small animals like rabbits. Because I manage a multi-pet household, I’m very comfortable with routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and special care needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priority.” Animals are a big part of my daily life, so caring for pets comes easily and naturally. Your pet won’t be left alone or treated like a task — they’ll be part of my normal routine and get lots of love and attention.” I offer flexible care options, including pet sitting in my home as well as caring for pets in the comfort of clients’ homes — depending on what works best for each family. Because I’m used to managing a multi-pet household, I’m organized, dependable, and attentive to each animal’s individual routine.
“Carol did an amazing job taking care of our three dogs at the same time. Each dog with there own requirements. She kept everything in order and managed all the requirements correctly. Will definitely rebook”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Carmen is incredibly accommodating, even helping us out last minute without any hesitation. My schedule can be a bit unpredictable, but she is super flexible and understanding, which made everything so much less stressful. She is fantastic with sending pictures and updates- it gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs are happy, safe, and well cared for! Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely great with animals!”
“Ashlee was absolutely wonderful! She was kind, thorough, and a great communicator. Our dog loved her and her kids! Ashlee gave us great peace of mind while we were away.”
“Kayla was incredibly friendly and considerate when watching my cat for a few days. She went above and beyond what I even asked for her to do and I couldn't be happier with her service!”
“Kaitlin was a lovely caretaker for our pup Louis! She was prompt, friendly and wrote us great report cards to review. Would highly recommend her for your sitting needs!”
“Grace did a great job looking after both my dogs while I was out of town and provided updates and informed me of anything she thought might be odd, so I knew what was going on. She also made sure that the dogs got their supplements as needed.”
“Stacey has taken care of our dogs multiple times for vacations. She is wonderful with them and I never worry about their well being. I will continue to use her for trips in the future and highly recommend her for any petting sitting or care services!”
“How are there not more stars to give?! 10/10. Extremely reliable. We had an emergency where our sitter wasn't able to come due to work complications(not their fault and they messaged asap, but couldn't make the overnight) . And at literally 9:30pm I messaged her frantic not knowing what to do and she went and stayed with our sweet boy for way more time than we could even hope for. And came back this morning to let him out and just love on him a bit. She truly cares for animals, not grossed out by smells: unfortunately, our dog had an accident in his crate. She cleaned him up, cleaned the crate and was able to replace bedding with others we had nearby. Truly caring for his health, environment and mental well being. Great communicator and absolutely will love your pet like her first born child. Cannot say enough good things about this sitter. Worth every penny!”
About: Welcome! 😊 Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my profile. I know this is a lot to read, but I want to be as transparent as possible so you know exactly what to expect when trusting me with your beloved pets. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress free experience for both you and your fur baby. Before booking, I do have one important policy to help keep all pets safe and healthy. For the well being of my own pets, your pets, and every animal in my care, I cannot accept bookings for pets with contagious illnesses or active parasite infestations. This includes conditions such as canine parvovirus (parvo), kennel cough, canine influenza, ringworm, mange, fleas, ticks, and other contagious fungal or infectious diseases. If your pet is currently sick with a contagious condition, I kindly ask that you wait until they've fully recovered before requesting a booking. Thank you so much for understanding and helping me maintain a safe environment for every pet I care for. ❤️ Now, a little about me! I have extensive experience caring for dogs, and my commitment to their well-being comes from a genuine love for pets of every breed, size, age, and personality. I believe every animal deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether they're energetic, shy, senior, or have special needs, I'll care for them with the same patience, compassion, and attention I give my own pets. I've had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I currently have three dogs of my own Chanel, Dobby, and Astrid and I also regularly help care for my parents' nine rescue dogs, whose sizes range from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. This has given me hands on experience with a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and care needs. One thing that sets me apart is that I am certified in American Red Cross Cat & Dog First Aid, giving me the knowledge to recognize emergency situations, provide immediate first aid when appropriate, and respond calmly while seeking veterinary care. While I hope to never need these skills, I believe being prepared is one of the best ways to keep pets safe. I have cared for pets that are blind, deaf, diabetic, have arthritis, experience seizures, are recovering from injuries or have limited mobility. I understand the extra patience, attention, and consistency these pets require, and I'm committed to making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you're away. I also have experience administering medications, following specialized care routines, monitoring pets for changes in behavior or health, and communicating those changes promptly with pet owners. I know how important it is to maintain your pet's normal routine, and I'll always follow your instructions carefully. My love for animals goes beyond simply watching them. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, interactive playtime, learning new tricks, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll provide personalized care tailored to their unique personality and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel like they're spending time with a trusted friend while giving you complete peace of mind through regular updates and photos. When your pet is with me, they're treated like family.💕🐾 Pet care is a part of my everyday life, it isn't something I have to squeeze into my schedule. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I make time for it every single day. My own dogs are my family, and I make sure they're always up to date on their vaccinations, receive high quality food (they honestly eat better than I do!), get plenty of daily exercise, mental enrichment, and lots of love and attention. I enjoy taking my dogs on walks, exploring new places, and practicing fun tricks to keep them mentally and physically engaged. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, so I'll always follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, leisurely walks, medication, frequent potty breaks, or simply a companion to keep them company, I'm committed to providing the same level of care, patience, and attention that I give my own pets. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to make their time away from you feel as comfortable and stress free as possible. I understand that pets feel safest in familiar surroundings, so I focus on maintaining their normal routine and creating a calm, positive experience. I will treat your home with the same respect and care that I would want for my own. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your pet’s environment clean and organized, and make sure they have everything they need during my visits. I pay close attention to details such as secure doors and gates, safe walking conditions, and any areas or items that may need to be avoided. During visits, I focus on providing a safe and comfortable environment through companionship, supervision, enrichment, and consistency. I also keep open communication with regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident while you are away.
“Miss Ariana has been great with both of my pups. One recently had flare ups for ivdd and had needed more gentle care while my other pup is still extremely active and she was able to accommodate to both their needs. She’s great at following instructions and communicating what is needed for a Successful visit.”
“Ruthie was a blessing to our family! It was my first time using the app, and I didn’t even know what to expect. Ruthie was very responsive & a great communicator. I 10000% with full confidence would recommend her to anyone, she is literally the best! From the first time meeting her she was professional, kind, and caring. I had a senior husky who was a bit anxious and had extra needs which Ruthie was able to help with. With her compassion, and genuine care for what she does you can’t go wrong. I truly appreciated everything she did to check/feed/love on my dog even up until the last moments. Ruthie is the best!!”
“Chasity was great, I was nervous as this was my first time using Rover but Chasity made me feel better with her check-ins and great communication. My puppy got plenty of play time and attention. 🩵”
About: I grew up in a family that bred dogs, so caring for animals has been a part of my life from the very beginning. I’ve been hands-on with puppies from birth through 10 weeks old, helping with everything from feeding and socializing to monitoring their health and growth. Along with that, I’ve grown up with 5 dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with the daily care, training, and affection that dogs need at every life stage. I truly love animals and enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s going for a walk, playing outside, or just giving them some extra love and attention. Your pets will be treated like my own, with lots of care, fun, and respect. I’m currently not working so I have all the time I need. I can do all day on weekends and all day Monday through Friday. I love taking my pets on walks and play dates to the parks. I also love giving them attention and showing them love if we were just at home.
“Kayla did an awesome job caring for our pets while we were away on a long vacation! She kept me informed of everything and communicated promptly. I highly recommend her to others who need pet care !”
“Stacy was not only a great drop-in sitter, taking care of Chuck while I was away, she was incredibly patient and understanding while I went through an emergency that forced me to make several scheduling changes. Stacy will be my first choice as a drop-in sitter the next time a need arises. Thanks again!”

Stacey was great. She was punctual and always spent her time being meticulous. She changed litter, food and water and took time to snap pictures and was thoughtful enough to turn on/ off lights and TV to entertain the cats. I was very greatful for the care and attention she showed our purrfect pets.
Couldn't Ask for Better! Natalia was absolutely wonderful with our cats. She sent updates and photos, followed our routine to a tee, and our pets were clearly happy and well-cared-for when we got home. Professional, reliable, and clearly loves animals. We'll definitely be booking again!

Ashlee is one of the most amazing pet sitters. She went above and beyond both times watching my 3 cats. I was extremely nervous about leaving them but Ashlee made me feel so much better. She even took amazing care of by fish. She was amazing at communicating and making sure to give me kitties plenty of love. Even my shy(sometimes evil) kitty came out of hiding which is saying so much to how amazing she is.
Miss Ariana has been great with both of my pups. One recently had flare ups for ivdd and had needed more gentle care while my other pup is still extremely active and she was able to accommodate to both their needs. She’s great at following instructions and communicating what is needed for a Successful visit.
Ashleigh is wonderful. I considered not leaving a review because if everyone knew what a tremendous sitter Ashleigh is, she wouldn’t have time to sit for me. But that wouldn’t be fair. If you hire Ashleigh as a sitter, you’ll never want anyone else to care for your pet(s).
Maya D. Is by far the best dog caretaker I have ever worked with. She truly loves helping animals and cares for mine so well. She handles medication and temperaments like a boss. When I had two male dogs that needed to be separated at all times and still be taken out and cared for she did not hesitate to help and not once was there contact or concerns. These are the best words that I have and they are still not enough! Thank you so much Maya.
Super fast responses and made sure to check on each cat regardless of if they came out or not. Was willing to change plans on very short notice which was a life saver. Kept me updated with pictures every visit and will definitely ask to pet sit again if I ever need!
Alexus has watched our dogs twice now and she has been amazing! One of our dogs had an injury needing a little extra care and oral medication - and she cared for them perfectly! Our minds are put at ease with her updates at each visit and pictures as well. Huge plus that she is a vet tech and as a veterinarian, this brings a great level of comfort knowing that she has the knowledge and skills to provide amazing care! Definitely recommend her! :)
Sofia is so sweet and a great sitter for my kitties! This is the second time that she has watched my babies and they just love her. She cares for them as if they are her own and she sends me photos and videos throughout her visit so I know they are doing good and are well cared for! 💞

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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
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.
