I am the MOST available on the weekends and evenings for any type of service, and am willing to work with you to find time during the week days to fit your needs!

“This is the second time I booked Simone. I just would like to add that not only she is great with my kitties but she also helped revived one of my sad eggplants. 🙏 i have a couple plants in my garden, and she and her daughters happily watered them during her check ins. I appreciate you Simone and your girls! Hope to work with you again in the future.”

“I admit I had separation anxiety leaving my two elder cats due to all the extra attention they received during the pandemic! This was my first trip since end of 2019 and Susan (at the last minute) came to my rescue after a relative had to cancel pet sitting. Susan came on time twice a day, sent pictures daily, and kitties looked happy upon my return. Thank you so much for your time and care. Much appreciated!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for six years, mid size and smaller. I know how to care for a dog in the puppy and adult, not very familiar with senior dogs. I want to help get your furry friend when you need it! I work a regular 9-5 office job, and recently moved to WA. I miss my pets terribly and are unable to have some of my own right now. I want to help care for someone’s pet while I can on my off time, mainly afternoon and evenings. In my clients home, with permission and guidance from them, I will go above and beyond to ease their pet to a new person and make the sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy.
About: My yard is fully fenced with privacy fence with local parks near by for walks. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, if the dogs are outside I'm outside with them. I treat your dog like I would my own, safety is my number one priority. We crate during feeding times, for a mid day nap, and overnight to ensure everyone stays safe and gets time to decompress and relax while here. We do enrichment games daily as well as get outside for play to ensure the dogs are having their mental and physical needs met, each dogs stay is catered to their specific needs with lots of calm time out with us in the home. My day is centered around the dogs, from adventure hikes, to decompression time, training games, and ensuring their needs are met in all ways. I like to keep a routine to help keep the nervous system balanced, dogs thrive in routine and knowing what is expected. I have a love for animals and always treat everyones pets as I'd expect my own to be treated with compassion and care. Boarding in a new strange place can be stressful for your dog, so I like to make sure they get a balance of decompression time and enrichment games. When you give a dog consistency while meeting their needs, it helps to reduce worrying about where mom and dad ran off too.

Jessica was great! One of my cats is very shy and she won him over while I was away. She provided updates with cute pictures of them. She was very responsive when I reached out with questions. I felt confident they were in good hands. I will rebook with her again and definitely recommend her!

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 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 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 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.
