About: I’ve taken care of puppies when they were first born because the mom had died and I also helped my neighbor with her dogs while she was at work. I start each morning with a brisk walk with the pups, followed by breakfast time. Throughout the day, I fit in playtime and cuddles, making sure they're always cared for amidst my other tasks. At a client's home, I follow their pet's routine to the letter, ensuring they feel secure and loved. And I will do anything to keep them safe.
“Steve has taken care of my cat Zoe twice now. He is punctual, very responsive, and available. I have had issues with sitters before where they take visit timings casually and it makes me very anxious. Zoe loves him, and always seems very happy in the pictures Steve shares. He goes above and beyond to incorporate playtime and cuddles, and spoils Zoe more than I do! Very happy we found Steve to catsit everytime we leave town!”
“Miranda did a fantastic job! She was very punctual on all visits to the house. Communicated with pictures of the dogs and the breaks they took. We are very pleased with her service and certainly recommend her to anyone needing this service for their dogs.”

About: I've been pet sitting for as many as 3 animals at a time since I was 12, I specialize in making pets feel cared for and following even complex instructions to the letter! I love cats and dogs of all sizes and energies. I really value putting in that extra effort to make a pet feel cared for and keeping a house tidy and safe. I can send updates every visit and value clear communication above all else. I work part-time as a stagehand with very flexible hours, often late nights, so my days are largely open for looking after whatever creatures come my way! I try to foster an environment of calm in any home I visit and am happy to work with a rowdier pup! I'm vigilant about potential hazards and have no problem keeping track of things like medicines, allergies or any other extras to consider.
About: Traveling for the holidays or vacation? Need someone you can trust to care for your furry family member and home? Let’s schedule a time to chat. This is something that allows me additional funds for school and, it’s a lot fun! Your furry family member could never overstay their welcome. I own a kennel that securely holds a dog that weighs to 70lbs. I am very accessible living the heart of South Austin. My primary goal is to assist those who have a chaotic schedule but genuinely care for the well-being of their furry family friend. I’m here to help! Secondly, I'd love to be able to save up for my own furry family friend. Since I do not have one of my own dog, yours can and will be my primary focus. I take very seriously the mental and physical health of all animals. If I’m not traveling, I wfh locally and allow walks to be a much needed break from zoom calls. I like to love places better than I arrived! During my services I am reading your furry family member body language and getting to know them through play. My main focuses are safety, comfort, and mental and physical stimulation.
“Ashlie was great! She assisted my family when we were in a bind. Our flights oversees were rescheduled a day later and our current sitter couldn’t assist. She stepped in and responded right away to help us. Gave her quick and very brief instructions. Very thankful for her!”
“Darian really went above and beyond. I was so stressed and worried because my dog can sometimes take a minute to warm up to new people. Overall a great experience and would recommend him to anyone!”

I hope you consider me for all your pet sitting needs. I can handle an active dog, a couch potato, or a senior. I’m currently between jobs, so I’m very flexible to schedule. I’m open to pop in throughout the day or do full day visits or overnight visits. My dog Sally loves to romp around our large fenced in yard. I’d be happy to play with your dog in your yard or take them for walks around your neighborhood.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hermitage
This was our first time leaving our dogs and depending entirely on drop-in visits while we were out of town, so having someone we could trust was a huge deal for us. Amber did a fantastic job caring for our dogs and made the entire experience stress-free. She was also very attentive and may have even helped tidy up a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch. She kept us informed, handled everything smoothly, and even administered medication without any issues. One of the biggest signs of approval from our dog Addison is that she doesn’t want people to leave, and she definitely gave Amber a hard time when it was time to go, which told us all we needed to know about how comfortable she felt with her. (Sorry, Amber!) We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and couldn’t be more grateful. It is such a relief knowing we have someone dependable, trustworthy, and caring that we can count on when we need help with our dogs. We will absolutely continue using Amber in the future.
Crystal was fantastic! She took great care of our pet and provided frequent updates, photos, and messages throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared and treated our pet like her own. Communication was excellent, and we always knew how things were going. We would absolutely book with Crystal again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
Carmen was absolutely incredible with my dog Sally. It’s probably the first time I’ve felt at ease leaving Sally at home with someone that wasn’t a friend or family member. She was super communicative and attentive to all of Sally’s needs. 10/10 would gladly book her again!
Reagan was great! We were just in Nashville for a few nights and needed someone to stop in to check on Watson and feed him so he wasn’t alone all evening. She fed him dinner, let him out and stayed with him for an hour so he wasn’t alone. We would highly recommend Reagan if you need a dog sitter!
We had such a great experience with Yesenia! She was able to step in on a last-minute request, which we were so grateful for, and she took amazing care of our dog, Kevin. She did drop-in visits three times a day and consistently kept us updated with photos each time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she wasn’t just checking a box…she spent quality time with Kevin and made sure he felt comfortable and cared for. We would absolutely book with Yesenia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter!
Hannah has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She is incredibly communicative, keeps us updated, and is always quick to respond. Managing three dogs is no small task, but she handles them with so much care and confidence. She is attentive to our specific requests and makes us feel completely at ease whenever we are away. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our dogs are in trustworthy hands. She is reliable, close by, and truly awesome at what she does. We will continue booking with her and highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
Adazia did awesome with our pup. She was available very last minute! My app also didn't update my address when I did and accidentally took her to the wrong place and she was very understanding. She did so well with tonks!! We will definitely be using 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 Hermitage 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.
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 Hermitage 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 .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Hermitage with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
