About: I have always owned dogs. I love dogs more than people and will treat your dog as if they were my own. I have experience with all dogs including, large dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I currently work from home so I have the flexibility to meet your needs. I do not have childcare on Fridays so I am unable to see dogs on that day. I will treat your dog as my own. I will respect your space and finish the job I came to do. I like to spend a few minutes to say hello to the dog and make them comfortable.
About: I absolutely love dogs, and walking! I grew up around dogs and have fostered dogs of all breeds and sizes. I work full-time as a Registered Nurse Monday - Friday and am mostly available for evenings and weekend drop-ins/walks but can also offer either over a lunch break depending on the day and location. Given my passion for both dogs and nursing, I'm comfortable with dogs that have special needs or who need a little extra TLC. With fostering we have dealt with all sorts of behavioral problems and I have experience with everything from potty-training to leash aggression. Every dog has their own unique needs and personality, and I have the compassion and adaptability to look after any furry friend! I do work full-time, Monday - Friday (8-4:30). My work place varies throughout the week with some days being in Port Washington and others in West Bend, which does make weekday daytime coordination a little challenging. However evenings and weekends have more flexibility, and if I am working in Port Washington (Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) I am available to swing by over my lunch break depending for local drop-ins. I have fostered numerous dogs over the years and treat them as my own. I have experience with leash training as well as crate training given my background in fostering. I have quite a bit of experience with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash or dog aggression, and I am always extremely cautious and protective of the dogs I am walking to ensure that there are no safety concerns when out walking (i.e. always crossing the street when another dog is coming, or not allowing them to run up to other dogs without ensuring both are friendly first).
“Meghan is great! Very friendly and clearly loves dogs. She arrived on time and followed the schedule / notes for the drop in. She sent photos as well so we could see how our dog was doing! Left the house clean too. We will definitely reach out to Meghan next time we need someone to help with our Golden Retriever.”
“Emma was absolutely amazing with our 2 very high energy boxers! From the start she was responsible, respectful and truly attentive to our dog’s needs. She handled their high energy routines perfectly. Making sure they’ve got plenty of love, care and exercise while she was here. It was clear that she treated them like her own. We came home to happy, calm dogs and couldn’t be more appreciative of her kindness and responsibility. We look forward to having her back soon.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and in recent years, cats too, including one we found as an orphaned kitten, just a few weeks old, hiding in our backyard bushes. Nursing him through those fragile first months taught me a lot about patience, close observation, and gentle care, all things I bring to every pet I look after. By background, I’m a people nurse, so I’m comfortable with medications, mobility issues, senior pets, or anything unexpected that comes up. These days I’m an at-home mom and entrepreneur, which means I have flexibility during the day and evenings. Your pet will get consistent attention and someone who treats their routine, quirks, and comfort as a priority. I’d love to meet you and your pet and talk through exactly what they need. Since I’m home full-time as a mom and entrepreneur, pet care fits naturally into my day rather than being squeezed into a tight window. I can offer walks, feedings, or check-ins throughout the day. My schedule has a lot of built-in flexibility, so I can usually adjust to a pet’s routine rather than asking them to adjust to mine. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible — same feeding times, same walk schedule, same spots for naps or play — so there’s as little disruption to their normal life as possible. I like to get a clear rundown from owners beforehand (feeding amounts, medications, quirks, favorite toys, anything that helps them feel secure) and I stay attentive to any signs something’s off, which is where my nursing background comes in handy

I will give them the best care they deserve! I work part time and have a flexible schedule, so I can be available when needed. I have a car for easy transportation as well.

“Patty was great as always. I really appreciate that I can trust her with my babies. She sends great pictures and my skittish babies are even getting used to her instead of their usual stranger danger attitudes. I will always go to her first for my Rover needs.”
“This was our first time using Rover for our 2 frenchies and Melanie was so awesome!! She asked clarifying questions when she wasn’t sure about something, sent the cutest pictures and provided detailed updates after every visit. Normally I feel guilty leaving the dogs home when we travel but they looked very happy and with her updates I knew they were being well taken care of. We will definitely be using rover and Melanie’s help again in the future!❤️”

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 .
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 , 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 .
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.
