“Tasha is fantastic! Her communication is top notch and she is always beyond attentive to our pup (I know because sometimes the camera is on and I watch her!) I would hire her again and again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of our 8 animals since I was 8 when I turned 15 I got my own puppy and potty trained him myself and taught him tricks myself. I am very responsible with dogs and feel I would be a good fit for you :) I am currently am on summer break on college and will be available 24/7 for your animals needs. I am very flexible and do not mind long stays or difficult animals I make sure all of my pets have food and water throughout the day and outside and I expect to do the same for your animals. I will ask for a explanation about your dogs diet and restrictions.
“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a child, so that gives me 30 plus years experience. My 2 children and I stay at home all day and can give your beloved pet the love and attention they deserve. I have plenty of backyard for them to run in, a nice neighborhood for walking and of course I can come to your home if thats the job needed. My 2 children LOVE dogs and will give them plenty of attention! They will get lots of exercise and cuddles here. Please send a message my way! I would love to hear from you and meet your fur babies! You can rest assured your pets will be in good hands while you enjoy your vacation!
About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
“I so appreciated being able to easily communicate with Angi and the pictures Angi sent me with each visit. She did a nice job of keeping my two cats fed, watered, and giving them human contact while I was away. I will definitely request Angi’s help in the future.😊”
“Amanda did a great job with our dogs. Came home after 5 days to find happy and excited dogs. Both were beyond thrilled to see Amanda again when she came by to drop they key off!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have owned several dogs with very different personalities and needs. From energetic Australian Shepherds who thrive on activity and mental stimulation to my calm and gentle Golden Retriever, I’ve gained valuable experience understanding how to care for dogs of all temperaments. I enjoy staying active and love spending time outdoors, whether that’s going for long walks, runs, or playing fetch at the park. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, and I’m just as happy to spend quiet time relaxing, cuddling, and providing companionship for pets who prefer a slower pace. I take pride in being responsible, dependable, and respectful of both pets and their owners. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to meet your pet and provide them with the care, attention, and affection they deserve! 🐾❤️ I currently have a work schedule that is all over the place, I am free anytime after 3:30pm Monday-Thursday. I have horseback riding on Friday and on weekends. I’d love to fit your pets needs into my schedule! When caring for pets in their own homes, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any household rules. I understand that pets can feel more comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing plenty of attention, companionship, and reassurance while their owners are away. I also treat every home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. During walks, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I pay close attention to their energy level, behavior, and surroundings to ensure they have an enjoyable experience. Whether your dog prefers a brisk walk, a run, or a slower-paced stroll with lots of sniffing opportunities, I adapt to their individual needs. I always use safe handling practices, stay alert to potential hazards, and make sure your pet gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. My goal is for every pet to return home happy, healthy, and tired from a fun outing!
About: I've taken care of puppies to the elderly dogs. Treat them as though we are a pack or family. Have had to take care of a high anxiety dog that required meds and territorial dogs. Coexistence is key. This is my full time job so I take your pets care seriously. I learn their cues to when need food, water, and outside time. I require detailed instructions written out so as to best take care of your fur baby. I like to get to know them to provide the best care I can.
“Marissa was very kind and timely with her drop-ins! She provided great pictures and was even kind enough to return after the booking ended to return my house keys. I would definitely book with her again in the future.”

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 Hopkins 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.

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.
