About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and sizes, from playful puppies to sweet senior pets who need extra TLC. Over the years, I’ve provided daily walks, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and lots of love! I understand how important it is to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable when their families are away. I’m experienced with: • Puppies and potty training routines • Senior pets who need gentle care or slower walks • Administering medications (oral or topical) • High-energy dogs needing extra exercise Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of my flexible schedule. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care. I also offer overnight stays and extended visits, ensuring your pets have company, comfort, and care around the clock while you’re away. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening cuddle time, or a full weekend stay, I can adapt to your pet’s schedule so they feel safe and loved in their own home. I provide a safe and loving environment where your pet can feel right at home. I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks, and your pet will also enjoy the company of my friendly, well-socialized dog King. For pets who need their own space, I can easily provide separation during meals or downtime and am comfortable with crates if that’s part of their routine. I always supervise playtime, keep a clean, pet-friendly home, and follow your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“Sonia is the best! My cats LOVED her and animals are very good judges of character. She kept me in the loop the whole time we were away and sent me pictures and videos of her playing with the cats. Even the shy one came out of his shell (which he won’t even do for me) and played with her. I feel like I’ve made a new friend - my cats certainly have!”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and understand their needs, personalities, and routines. I also volunteer at an animal shelter, (Mostly Mutts) where I gain valuable hands-on experience caring for animals. I love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m looking to earn a little extra money to help with bills while doing something I genuinely love! ❤️ Volunteering at an animal shelter has made me realize just how much joy caring for animals brings me. I figured, why not turn my passion into something that helps me financially, too? My love for animals is truly unmatched, and nothing makes me happier than making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. 🐾💕 ‼️PLEASE NOTE I AM ONLY AVAILABLE 7AM-12PM MONDAY AND FRIDAY‼️ Tues, Weds, and Saturday I have open availability. When visiting your home, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their usual feeding schedules, refresh their water, clean litter boxes, take dogs outside for potty breaks, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friends are in good hands!

About: Hello pet parents! I am a dog owner myself, and have taken care of all breeds of dogs from the high energy chihuahua to the reserved mastiff. I am able to handle larger breeds since I strength train regularly at the gym. I can also go on longer walks since I take walks on a daily basis. I’m also comfortable with giving dogs oral medication. I currently work full time, but I can be flexible on some days in the afternoon for quick walks. I am available (Monday-Thursday) and mostly free on weekends (Friday-Sunday). I understand that each dog’s personality and temperament is unique and I’m willing to accommodate any dog! I would treat any dog just like my own. We can have multiple meet and greets to make sure your pet is comfortable. I respect every furry pet owners rules and communicate frequent updates. I make sure the dog is comfortable with frequent water breaks and/or potty breaks. I use positive reinforcement, and treats (if okay with owner) to have a great walking experience. I am also experienced in dogs with separation anxiety or just anxiety in general. Plus all the hugs and wags!

About: I have owned dogs for most of my life. My experience ranges from small/mini dog breeds to large labradors. I love all types of dogs! I have house sat for multi dog houses and love to take dogs on walks. I work from home, so I thankfully have some flexibility. I am available M-F anytime between 12 and 2. I can potentially do other times M-F, but have a little less flexibility. Feel free to ask about if I'm available. I'm available again M-F after 5. Saturdays I an available all day and Sundays I am available after 12 I always try to keep them within eye sight. I make sure their energy gets out since a tired dog is a happy dog. Lastly, I ensure they get endless pets and snuggles (if they like snuggles)

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my lifelong love for animals, my hands-on experience, and my ability to care for pets of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and temperaments! 🐾❤️ I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a special place in my heart for both cats and dogs. Since I was 14, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and working at doggy daycare facilities. During my time at doggy daycares, I’ve cared for everything from large Great Danes and energetic Pit Bull mixes to tiny pups with big personalities! These experiences have taught me how to understand different behaviors, recognize body language, and provide safe, attentive care. I’m also very comfortable caring for multiple animals at once! Whether you have several dogs, multiple cats, or a household with both, I’m happy to help. My doggy daycare experience has taught me how to manage different personalities, energy levels, and routines while making sure every animal receives the individual attention, patience, and love they deserve. I also have a special love for cats, especially those who may be shy, fearful, independent, or a little temperamental! Growing up, I’ve helped feral cats gradually become comfortable living indoors as loving house cats. Through those experiences, I’ve learned that earning an animal’s trust takes time, consistency, kindness, and patience. If your kitty is a little feisty, nervous around strangers, or prefers their personal space, that’s perfectly okay! I understand how to recognize signs of stress, respect boundaries, and allow them to become comfortable with me at their own pace. The same goes for dogs who may be anxious, energetic, or need a little extra reassurance. I believe what truly makes me different is that I don’t expect every animal to behave the same way. Every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m experienced with feeding, dog walking, playtime, litter box cleaning and maintenance, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I also offer house-sitting services, so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment while I make sure your home is respected, tidy, and well cared for. Above all, I’m reliable, dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about animals. Whether you have one cuddly kitty, a house full of energetic pups, or a mix of furry personalities, I’ll do my very best to make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pets are family, and I promise to treat them with the same kindness, patience, and love that I give my own! 🐶🐱💕 I’m currently attending school online, which gives me flexibility with my schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs! I’m always happy to discuss availability and find a schedule that works best for you and your furry family members! 💖 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I always do my best to follow their usual schedule, whether that includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, or plenty of cuddles! I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes and will make sure everything stays clean, tidy, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your beloved pets and your home. Communication is extremely important to me! I’ll happily provide regular updates, pictures, and messages throughout my visits so you can see how your furry family members are doing. Whether they’re enjoying a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or relaxing at home, I want you to feel reassured knowing they’re happy and receiving plenty of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible, knowing your pets and home are in caring, reliable, and dependable hands! 🐶🐱❤️

About: I have been a pet owner my whole life, and for the past 5 years, I have cared for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes, breeds, and ages. I also have experience handling more aggressive breeds. I have watched both dogs and cats and love both! I’m very experienced in animal care and would love the opportunity to get to know your pet! I'm currently a student and also work part-time as a server, but my shifts are short and my schedule is very flexible—giving me plenty of time to care for your pup! I’m happy to work around your needs, whether it’s a specific time slot or an extended stay. I love spending time outdoors and would be thrilled to take your dog on a walk through the trails or for some fun at the park. Your dog’s happiness, exercise, and comfort are my top priorities! Watching your pet in your home means plenty of outdoor time—weather permitting, of course! We’ll play fetch, go for walks, and I’d be happy to take them on a trip to the dog park for some extra fun and socialization. My priority is to spend as much quality time as possible with your pet, keeping them happy, active, and well-cared for while you're away. You can rest easy knowing they’re in loving and attentive hands.

About: Hi! I’m a friendly, reliable person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I’ve cared for my brother’s dog on multiple occasions, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure he stayed on his normal routine while my brother was away. I’m also a proud cat owner, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I know every pet has their own personality, and I’m happy to take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you stay updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to play or just wants someone calm to keep them company, I’m here to provide dependable, attentive care. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine since I have two cats of my own. Every day includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure they’re happy and healthy. Because caring for pets is something I already prioritize, it’s easy for me to incorporate additional visits or boarding into my schedule while giving each pet the attention, consistency, and care they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine, making sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, and a safe, clean environment. As a cat owner myself, I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, and recognizing changes in behavior. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I respect their routine, provide lots of love and companionship, and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Caring for them has always felt less like a job and more like something I was naturally meant to do. I’ve had a passion for animals since I was little, and over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to turn that passion into years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in all kinds of settings. I’ve been pet sitting for several years and have also worked in veterinary medicine, grooming salons, and doggy daycares, giving me experience with everything from everyday care and companionship to grooming, enrichment, handling, and recognizing the little signs that a pet may need extra attention or reassurance. I’ve truly done just about every job under the sun when it comes to the care and well-being of dogs and cats. Every experience has taught me something new about how special and individual each animal really is. When your pets are in my care, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, secure, loved, and completely comfortable. I understand that being away from their people can be stressful, so I do everything I can to create a calm, positive environment where they can relax and feel at home. Whether that means playtime and cuddles, sticking closely to their routine, giving them plenty of patience and reassurance, or simply being there as a comforting presence, I treat every animal as if they were my own. To me, pet sitting is about so much more than feeding and walking, it’s about earning their trust, keeping them happy and cared for, and giving their owners peace of mind knowing their beloved pets are in loving, experienced hands. Hope to meet your fur babies soon!! 😊❤️ I currently have a lot of free time most days, so I’m available whenever your pet will need me! I can let them out when needed, feed them, or even give them walks. Whatever you need me to do, I’ll be there for them! I’m willing to follow your guidelines for your home. Whether that’s let them out into a fenced yard, certain hours of play time, long walks, or the be crated at specific times during the day. I’m here to help you out and make your babies more at ease.

“Markia did a wonderful job with my cat Norman, especially for it being her first time with him. She was very communicative throughout the entire process and followed all of my instructions carefully, including taking extra care with his food, Norman has no teeth, so his dry food needs to be softened with hot water, and she prepared it perfectly, even better than I usually do. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like putting out catnip for him, and I was pleasantly surprised that Norman came out for her, which says a lot given how shy he is. I would definitely book her again!”

She genuinely cared about them and provided a safe and nurturing environment. I was impressed with her communication as she texted and sent pics of them immediately after each visit. Cate was very kind, patient, and consistent with her care. I will definitely be calling on her again for trips in July and August.”

Lauren was absolutely amazing! She cared for my three cats every day for two weeks while I was out of the country, and I truly felt completely at ease knowing they were with her. She was incredibly attentive by feeding them, playing with them every day, and consistently sending me photos and updates so I always knew how they were doing. She also went above and beyond the basic visits. Since I was away for so long, she was thoughtful about things like the temperature inside the house, taking out the trash, and making sure the litter and home stayed clean and fresh. It also seemed like she often stayed beyond the scheduled 30 minutes just to give the cats extra attention, which I really appreciated. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire trip, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about my cats and their wellbeing. Having someone that reliable and attentive made being away from them for two weeks so much easier. I would absolutely hire Lauren again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Heritage Place

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
