“Georgette helped us out during a true emergency when we needed someone to care for my in-laws’ cats. I can’t describe how much of a lifesaver she was. Georgette was kind, accommodating, and extremely professional, not to mention highly experienced with animals as a vet tech. It’s clear that she truly cared about the cats and took excellent care of them during an extended period. It was such a comfort to know that they were being so well looked after while dealing with our family emergency. I wish I could give her 10 stars!!”
About: I currently have a mini bernadoodle named Piper. She is two years old and I have had her since she was 10 weeks old. What sets me apart is that I love her as much as my children and she has a piece of my heart. I make sure she is safe and happy every single day. I currently working fulltime but I am able to pet care weekdays, weekend mornings and evenings. I am flexible so if there is a day of the week and time you prefer feel free to ask and if I can make it work, I will be there. I am in the process of moving, so I can not have pets in my home after June 2026 but at someone else's home, your pet is my priority. I will make sure they are fed, exercised and loved.
“I had such a great experience! They came by to take care of my boy Toby—gave him a potty break, fed him dinner, and spent some quality time with him—and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. From the moment I met them, I could tell they were kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely great with dogs. Toby absolutely loved them right away, which says a lot. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly knew what they were doing. I would 100% book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring sitters!”
About: Many years of pets experience having my own pets and also pet sitting for family/ friends. I have 4 cats of my own who are my absolute world. One being a blind senior who does need guidance and a little extra lovins. I love your pets as much as my own! Currently I have open availability. My days are free and I’m willing to tend to pet needs in a pinch. Life happens and I’m happy to be available. I have 4 cats of my own who need care. They have litter boxes which are cleaned regularly. My home is zen and calm just the way we like it here!
“Pam did a great job of taking care of our dog Willow. She kept in touch with us and we were totally able to relax and enjoy our visit with family knowing Willow was in good hands.”
“Couldn’t recommend Mia enough! She took care of my cat while I was away for the weekend. She gave me consistent updates and pictures and took great care of my cat. Amazing sitter!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lovers with a deep passion of caring for pets of all kinds. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, and plenty of other furry (and not-so-furry) friends taught me how much love and care they deserve. My top priority is always making sure your pets are happy, healthy, and feeling loved. From feeding routines and walks to cuddle time (or just calm company for the more independent types), I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for according to their unique personality. I love keeping pets engaged with fun, stimulating activities. For cats, that might mean interactive toys, puzzle feeders, or laser play. For dogs, it’s usually games of fetch, tug-of-war, or a good old-fashioned frisbee toss. Even reptiles get the same thoughtful attention (maybe less cuddling, but plenty of care and respect!). Every pet deserves the best care possible, and that’s what I promise to provide. Whether you’re going away for a day or a week, I will treat your furry family member as if they were our own. I’d love to meet your pets and help you feel at ease while you’re away!
About: I've taken care of dogs since high school, had my own 3 dogs at once from puppyhood through senior. I have volunteered at an animal shelter for 10 years and can handle small to large dogs. I'm highly reliable, kind and friendly to all animals and will walk your dog with care. I want you to feel good knowing your dog is taken care of. I work a full time job and volunteer on the weekends, but am available to drop in for potty breaks or feedings in the early evenings during the week. I do not have a yard, however, I can certainly drop in your home to feed, walk, clean up and hang out and spend time with them.
“Christina was the absolute best! She was able to come watch our boys on short notice while we were away for our wedding. She is very communicative, friendly, and deeply cares for your pets. We will definitely be recommending her & rebooking in the future. Thank you so so much!! 🩷”
“Bridget is very communicative and took excellent care of our cats while we were away. Sent tons of pictures and made sure they were happy and had all their needs met.”
About: I have a dog of my own, I’ve been taking care of him for 2 years and making sure to walk him everyday. I am a trusted dog walker I work from home and whenever I have time I love walking my dog out and neighbors dogs for an hour or two. Love dogs I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a leash I take them out with when they need to go to the bathroom
“Janine was absolutely professional and efficient during her 8 days of care of my cat. She fed, played, and cleaned up after Graceson. I would recommend Janine in a heartbeat and will look to rebook if I need any future drop-ins!”
“This is our 2nd time using Jonathan. We had a vet emergency 1 hr before our flight, and he came to the vet office, picked up meds, and administered them while we were away. Incredibly kind and responsible person!”
About: Hi! My name is Caroline, and I have been caring for animals my entire life. Growing up around pets and helping care for dogs has given me extensive hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I provide regular updates, photos, and prompt communication to give you peace of mind. I am comfortable caring for a wide variety of dogs and enjoy building positive relationships with both pets and their owners. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide the loving, dependable care they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am available for drop-in visits and walks! I have availability on weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I am committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative. If you have specific scheduling needs, feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them. When caring for your dog, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. During drop-in visits, I will make sure your dog has fresh water, food (if requested), potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also monitor their overall well-being and let you know if I notice anything unusual. For walks, I provide safe, attentive exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs. Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll or a more active walk, I’ll make sure they get the physical activity and mental stimulation they need while staying safe and happy.
“Danielle was great! She came each morning to feed our cat and give him fresh water. She also scooped his litter and sent a picture each day. Danielle also let us know it was chilly in the house and we needed to raise the heat. We are so grateful that Tuck received such great care. Highly recommend Danielle!”
“Boryana did a great job looking after my cat while I was away! This was my first time leaving my cat for an extended period of time, but Boryana provided updates and photos that made me feel confident my cat was in good hands! My cat is normally shy but quickly warmed to Boryana and even sat on her lap by the end of the trip!”
“Lisa Marie was excellent with our two high-energy dogs! She was prompt and a great communicator. She sent lots of pictures of our pups so we could see they were having a great time and gave thorough reports on how the drop-in visits went. Some of the pics she sent were actually frame-worthy!! Thank you for taking such great care of Linkin and Hudson!”
“My dog Avery met Mary Jo for the first time today. You would have thought they were old friends since he was so excited to see her! He didn't hesitate going for a walk with her...and probably would have gone home with her if I let him! I am thrilled to know there is someone who I can trust to take care of him when I need help. Avery definitely has a new BFF.”

This was the first time I ever used Rover so I was a little nervous. Adriane set me at ease by setting up an initial time to meet in person before moving forward. And of course, I felt very comfortable upon our meet. From there, Adriane was so fantastic with Millie. She sent me updates and many photos daily. She even made homemade treats for Millie (after checking with me of course) and I just felt Millie was really being loved up while we were away. I will absolutely ask Adriane for her availability in the future. I know Millie will miss her now that we are home from our 3 week vacation. I wish she could still come visit her everyday!
We used Lenny to take care of DJ over the Fourth of July, and we truly could not have asked for better care. During a thunderstorm, the power went out, and Lenny went above and beyond by bringing DJ a fan and a lantern so he wouldn’t be hot or left in the dark. Lenny was also looking out for us in every way possible. Our Jeep was parked under a tree that looked like it might fall during the storm, and she immediately called us to ask if we wanted her to move it to a safer spot. Knowing that someone cared for both DJ and our home as if they were her own gave us complete peace of mind. Lenny is reliable, thoughtful, and incredibly compassionate. DJ loves her, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will go the extra mile for their pets.
Alexandra was great! My girl is anxious around new people, but she's a needy velcro kitty, so I try to arrange an hour for visits to give her cuddles and llay time. Alexandra stayed and took the time to help put my girl at ease and gave her lots of cuddles. I will definitely be booking with her again.

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 Helmetta 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Helmetta. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
