“Brooke is awesome! In addition to being extremely attentive and prepared, Brooke really enjoyed taking care of my cat. I felt very good knowing Boo was being cared for by Brooke!”
About: Ive taken care of different kinds of dogs since childhood. Family, friends, and locals have trusted me to feed, watch, or walk their dogs. I also can bathe dogs and brush them if needed. I work a part time job but I can stop in or help whenever needed. I typically work 4 hours a day and can care for animals before or after. I have a fenced in yard for my dog, and have multiple beds, towers, and scratching posts for my cats. I also have boxes of toys for both along with treats.
About: I have had many different kinds of dogs since I was a kid, but the big ones are my favorite :) I received training in positive reinforcement for dogs and taught classes at Petsmart throughout college. I work from home 3 days per week and am available on weekends for regular drop in visits or boarding at my house, with a fenced in yard. We recently lost our black lab so I would be happy to love on your fur babies. I have a fenced backyard and love going on walks! We have a park near our house with a walking trail as well.
About: Ive taken care of many pets with specialized needs. This includes routine medicine and eye drops for the elderly, frequent belly band changes changes for those with bladder issues, and calming treats for those fearful of storms. Im quick to learn each dogs bathroom tells to avoid any unwanted accidents. I also have fishkeeping experience with 2 freshwater fish tanks at home. So if youre fish needs feeding or water quality checks I can handle that was well. I am currently working a part time internship with flexible hours, which allows me to care for furry babies in my free time! Weekends are typically busy, however with enough notice I can make them work. House rules are always respected, no matter how much a dog wants couch cuddles or if the cat likes the view from on top of the counter.
“Caitlin was amazing with my cats while I was gone! She provided me with thorough updates and silly pictures. She definitely made me feel a lot better about leaving them home alone for the first time. I’ll definitely see if she is available again in the future the next time I go on a trip :) thank you, Caitlin!!”
About: I have an immense love for pets, dogs especially! I have some experience being with family dogs and I have a 3 year old fur baby myself, who is a Shih Tzu and Bichon Frise mix. I take note of dog's body language, when they are tense and whenever they are ready to play. I have experience on how I should help a dog in the case they have trouble breathing. I especially love to bond and play with dogs! I ensure that your dogs are going to safe and have the best experiences with me!🤗 I'm currently working part-time, so I would have plenty of time to be with your fur babies! I am typically free on the weekdays from Monday to Friday. The earliest I can do a scheduled appointment for around 8 hours. My time ranges from the earliest at 8am and the latest at 9pm. In my home, I get rid of any harmful items on the ground or in sight of my pet. I clean my pet's bowl daily. I make sure to keep them company. I never leave them unsupervised for long hours. For your pet I will adhere to any strict feeding or medicine routines and communicate quick updates.
“I give Bree a rating of 1000/10. This was the longest time (8 days) that we had to leave our curmudgeonly old-man behind and I was concerned, but Bree went above and beyond to make sure our Puppy Cat had companionship and felt loved. She kept in regular communication with us and reported in detail about each visit with him. She even provide photo evidence that he allowed her to touch him! I didn't think about it until I saw the pictures she provided, but she paid attention to the details during our initial meeting and I was especially pleased that our old man's food was handled how and where he was used to so it was one less disruption. We will definitely ask Bree to sit for us next time we need.”
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was little. I’ve grown up with them. At the age of 15 I started dog sitting doing things such as feeding, walking and playing with the dogs. I even stayed over if need be. My availability is very quite open at any time of day, I love to run and play with pups as part of my daily routine Unfortunately due to housing situations I am unable to bring your pup to me but I am more than capable to come over to your pup and play, run, even give them some treats and stay with them
“Shemoy was great taking care of our two kitties and drop in visits! She kept us informed for each of her visits with pictures and she was always quick to respond to any messages. We will definitely have her back!”

About: I’ve had experience since I was born but I’ve been more attentive and actually working to take care of them since 13. I’m 18 now, I have watched scared dogs, big dogs, friendly dogs, jumping dogs, sleepy dogs, small dogs, and same goes for cats! I have 4 dogs currently, and I freed them and take them out all the time, so extra dogs wouldn’t make any difference I would just do the same with them as I do with my dogs! They would have all permissions as my dogs! I will take them out, check them for tics or anything hurting them if they show it. Feed them obviously! And give them treats on certain occasions, or whenever you say I can give them. I take my time with them and love them with my whole heart! Your dog will be treated exactly how I treat mine!
“Kendal was very prompt and made sure to give my animals plenty of attention. She also communicated with me of there were any issues. Highly recommend and will be requesting her services in the future.”
About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.
“Morgan is FANTASTIC! We ended up booking on short notice and Morgan made an effort to meet us, the dogs, and cat first before taking care of our babies alone. The dogs took to Morgan so quickly! Morgan was very attentive and communicated frequently. I was able to relax knowing my guys were in great hands! Morgan went above an beyond what was asked when taking care of our 2 shepherds. You can tell Morgan has a passion for animals and we will definitely be booking again!”
“Phenomenal! I am in a situation where I'm starting to give fluids to my cat at home. My cat is a Tortie, so she is sassy and fights back on the process of being stuck for fluids. I gave up and called the vet, they couldn't get me in for a few days due to the weekend, but my cat needed the fluids now. Christina was able to come the day after I contacted her to help me. She was great! Very kind, easy to get along with. I felt at ease with her and she was very knowledgeable due to her experience as a vet tech. We got the needle in my cat and she got her fluids, Christina was a lifesaver!”
“Kimberly is awesome! She always keeps us up to daye and send pics of our boys each time she drops by. You will not find a better person for your pet sitting needs!”
“Ja'Lynn came over to meet my puppy in advance for a meet and greet, which was nice as this was my first time booking for him as he is 3 months old. Ja'Lynn arrived early for the two shifts and provided photos. I would book her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,203 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Helen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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 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.
