“Mackenzie was great! She did a stop in visit to feed my three cats and went above and beyond. Not only did she send plenty of photos, she also took a quick look at the litter boxes. Would go with again!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I’ve cared for cats since childhood, regularly looked after a spirited but lovable German Shepherd, and spent time around various animals including livestock. Currently, I work at a premium dog kennel and daycare, where I’ve gained valuable experience managing dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities. What truly sets me apart is my deep rooted love and comfort around animals. I connect with them easily and genuinely enjoy their company more than anything else. Their well-being is always my first priority. My work schedule can vary between 6 a.m. and 7:30 p.m., but pet care still fits naturally into my routine. I work at a dog kennel/daycare, which gives me the unique ability to bring dogs with me if I have a long shift or if they need all-day supervision. Dogs are evaluated for daycare, and if they’re not comfortable around others, they’ll go into private play—where they get one-on-one outdoor time every few hours. The accommodations include beds, water bowls, and even free dog food if needed. I cover the cost myself, so your pet’s comfort and care are always a priority. We also offer baths at my work, which could come in handy for some dog owners. Since I’m unable to bring pets into my home, I offer in-home sitting and care. I believe the best care comes from following the pet owner’s instructions closely—no one knows their pet better than they do. I’m here to provide exactly what they feel is best for their pet’s comfort and routine. Through my work at a professional dog kennel, I’ve gained valuable experience recognizing signs of stress or discomfort in animals. If a pet seems uneasy with me or their environment, I adjust immediately to ensure they feel safe and secure. Additionally, if you're a beginner pet parent with any questions or concerns about caring for your pet, I’m happy to offer guidance and advice to help you feel confident in your role as a pet owner.
“Tara was prompt, attentive, came out to meet us and our dogs prior to sitting with them while we were at work, and carefully completed all requested tasks. Our dogs absolutely loved her. She sent a LOT of photos, which was great. Would be comfortable working with Tara again.”
“This is the second time we use Matt and he’s great with the girls. He checked on them and gave them their food and took them for a walk. He’s good with the girls and they enjoy their time with him”
“Audrey was very responsive, supportive, and helpful while we were away for work, taking care of our cats. She would send daily pictures and a give us a report of how the kittens were doing! She was great!”

About: Hi! My name is Marinda and I chose to be apart of Rover because I have always loved animals. I serve as a manager at a local veterinary hospital and have years of experience when it comes to dog watching. I’m hoping this is an opportunity I’ll be able to take care of others dogs! I have always enjoyed all types of dogs and seem to get along with them all as well. Hope to be able to be apart of your pets life! I am a full time employee who would love to have a second job but doesn’t have the time for it, so, I fill in my easy days with Rover! It’s easy to manage with my own hours! First and foremost I read about the pet and what the owners have to say about them. This will give me a good idea for what I am getting into when I enter the owners house. I will already know how the dogs are going to act and I will be prepared. I never leave the doors unlocked/open unless advised by the owner. I will do exactly what the owner has said to do. I will always double check a dog is secured with their leash when going outside, I will also be aware of the weather and how that might switch the dogs needs when going outside.
“Cindy was amazing and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. One of our cats was a stray and hides whenever someone new is at the house. She took the time (and effort) to find him under one of the beds and just talk to him! The pictures and updates were so great to receive. Will not hesitate to use her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family's pets since I was young. Recently I have been pet sitting as many dogs and kitties as I can. I’m very adaptable and adore animals. I dance part time, on Monday’s 3-9, Tuesdays 7-9, and Thursdays 3-7. Other than that my time is completely flexible for pet sitting. I’m very tidy and will always leave the house better than I found it! I’m also good with cleaning up puppy/kitty accidents.
About: I have grown up around all types of dogs. I have also cared for friend's dogs in the past and have grown to enjoy helping other's with their own.

I will provide whatever care is necessary based on your home whether a crate or fenced in yard. And of course with lots of love and attention!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hartland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Hartland 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 .

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 Hartland 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.

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.
