About: While growing up on a farm, I have always loved caring for dogs, cat, and horses with various needs. Friends and family have trusted me with their four legged companions of all sizes for many years. Whether your dog needs to burn some energy on a fun walk or your cat needs a friendly drop-in visit, I can't wait to meet them! 🐾 I currently have a very sweet Australian Shepherd, an extra fluffy cat, and four gentle horses and two donkeys - all with unique personalities and needs. I work remotely from home, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I'm more than happy to spend time with your pet, ensuring they receive proper care and attention. My backyard is fenced in, with plenty of room to play ball or practice agility. I respect other pet owner's space and home, as well as rules for handling or caring for their pets, ensuring I am both assertive and friendly.
“Carly is FABULOUS! She always leaves a detailed summary of her visits- which is huge with my senior dog and keeping track of bowel habits and tinkles. Carly walks with my girl in the yard and takes time for lots of pets. Carly pays attention to and adjusts for my dogs significant loss of hearing to avoid startling. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”

About: I’ve had experience with dogs my whole life. Growing up, my family bred Australian shepherds. I’ve owned small dogs like a Chihuahua and big dogs like Great Pyrenees. I’ve had experience with just about every breed of dog. I grew up in farm land and I love animals of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. I’m a pitbull lover as I currently own one. I love being outdoors and giving lots of cuddles! I currently work full time in a school so I get plenty of time off including holiday breaks and summer hours. I only work 7 hours a day Monday-Friday. So I’m available for overnight care. I’m available most weekends as well. I would feel more comfortable in your home so your pets don’t get any anxiety being away from their safe place. I’m trustworthy and reliable. I’ve had background checks and I have reliable sources. Your pet will be in good care with me.

About: Hi Everyone! My expierence with and genuine care for animals has been apart of my whole life. This year I will have been working for a doggy daycare and boarding facility for two years, along with caring for my family dog for many years before that. I have my own feline friend “Chicken Noodle” though he prefers just Noodle. I currently work part time for a doggy daycare facility that opens early mornings and close by 7. I do school online so I have more than enough time to play and take care of your fur babies! I have expierence with both dogs and cats, and understand some require different needs based on nature, background, and personality of the animal. Whether it’s talking quietly to a skiddish cat or playing with a crazy lab I got ya covered!
“Alyssa is truly a kind and genuine individual and you can tell just by meeting her and speaking with her that she really cares for animals. My dogs really like her and I feel so much more at ease knowing they are being checked on by someone who will really make sure they are okay. Having Alyssa to check on my little fluff balls makes me feel lucky this service exists. I know it has really helped my pets to feel more calm while I’m at work. Thank you, Alyssa!!!”

About: As a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve spent years providing loving care to various breeds. As a trusted adult by family and friends, I prioritize each dog’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do my best and more to create a nurturing environment where pets thrive. Bring a dog caregiver perfectly complements my part time job by allowing me to structure my day around both responsibilities. This role not only offers companionship but also ensures I remain active and engaged throughout the day. As a dog caregiver, I provide a personalized care in both my home and client’s homes. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, exercising, and bathroom breaks to ensure each dog feels secure. In clients homes, I follow their specific guidelines while bringing my own warmth and attention. I focus on keeping their pets comfortable, engaging them in activities, and maintaining a clean environment.

About: I have been working with people's furry family members on and off for about 10 years now. Aside from working in doggy daycare and boarding, I've cared for animals of friends and family throughout my life. Keeping animals well taken care of and well enriched is my specialty. I am also a certified dog trainer through Animal Behavior College. I'll be available for sitting on weekends and eventually full-time! Walks and training sessions can always be incorporated into my week. Please reach out so we can make your schedule work! I have pet sat and worked in boarding/daycare facilities for years. There is almost no situation I couldn't accommodate. Whether it be special preferences you might have for your furry buddy or necessities like administering important medication, there is almost no situation I wouldn't be happy to oblige when taking care of your pet.
About: I will treat your pets like they are part of the family. Making sure your dog gets the play time needed to stay happy. I am home full time and can work most schedules. I have worked for a groomer and vet so I have experience with animals of all sizes and personalities. I am willing to accommodate any special needs your pet may have. I am home full time, and can work around whatever times you need. Also can do multiple visits a day if that is something needed. I will make sure to take the time to learn your routine, and anything else I need to know to make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable.
About: To be completely honest, our home operates on a strict policy of maximum fun and zero boredom. My Belgian Shepherd is are high-energy, Olympic-level players, meaning your fur baby will always have a partner for zoomies, tug-of-war, or aggressive backyard scouting. For the Energetic Pups We run, jump, and play until they forget what a couch even looks like. & If your dog prefers to just watch the chaos from a comfortable distance, they will be showered with endless belly rubs, ear scratches, and VIP treatment ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Whether they are here for daycare or an overnight boarding sleepover, I promise to treat your dog like absolute royalty (and send you plenty of goofy photo updates to prove it). Book a stay and let the fun begin! ❤️ I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays. Summer times the balcony door stays open so theyre free to come in and out. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog with frequent potty breaks per your request, just inform me before hand.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. Right now I have four cats, two dogs, and two rabbits, so I’m used to taking care of multiple pets with different needs and personalities. One of my dogs is very old and has become blind and deaf, which has taught me a lot about patience, paying attention to details, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for him has given me experience working with animals that need a little extra support and attention. I also volunteered at a horse rescue and rehabilitation facility for a year, where I helped with feeding, grooming, cleaning stalls, and caring for horses. Working with horses taught me how to safely handle large animals, stay calm under pressure, and understand animal behavior. It gave me a lot of confidence and responsibility that I still use when caring for pets today. Besides my own animals, I’ve helped care for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, basic medications, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention while their owners are away. I’m a 19-year-old college student currently on summer break and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets because I feel the same way about my own. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. ❤️ As a college student on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability outside of my part-time job. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet’s needs, whether that means drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent, quality care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, clean up after pets, ensure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and carefully follow any special instructions. I also treat each home with respect and keep pet owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I thought I would grow up to be a veterinarian. I love to sit and enjoy my time with Dogs. Animals my passion and I love and enjoy all of them! I’d love to use my strengths and education with 15 years of hands on animal handling skill and training to cater to the needs of your pets to comfort your companion while you're away, I can assure you the pet owner they’re living their best life in my care. I send tons of pictures and show love care and compassion. I have been an animal handler and curated for 15 years, comforting and catering to your companions. I would love to be that trusted person you book when it comes to your pets needs and overall bliss! I have open availability. Taking new clients! I handle dogs and cats every single day! I have a wonderful dog named Charlie (really my mom’s dog) and have been handling a multitude of breeds for 15 years. Learning all different kinds of personalities. I have come accustomed to understanding animals in a way that serves me and can serve you comfort and overall peace and joy knowing your companion is in the best care possible. I love being an animal handler and specializing in dogs specifically. I have curated my skills and know how to really be there for your pet in a way that matters. Every day and every action will add up in your overall animals life quality and I know how to do things for your pet that will matter later down the line, when you don’t have time to. I do! Communication is huge for me and your pet! Your pets schedule and goals are my mission and I don’t miss out on sending tons of update pics and what we have planned for the day! I care for dogs in my clients home. I do not host in my home. But the ultimate focus when I’m at my clients home is paying attention to your dogs behavior. Separation anxiety is a huge trigger for dogs not eating and becoming unhealthy and creating unhealthy habits and I do everything in my power to distract the worry and bring play and fun and most importantly comfort. Your dog will learn how to communicate with me very quickly and once I can assess their needs, wants and desires then they tend to feel heard and more at peace with their owner being away. Creating or sticking to a schedule and incorporating healthy dog play and walks is important. A healthy dog is an happy dog! When I come back they are joyful! I love that feeling of creating a good relationship with your pet, And with YOU!

I have cared for my family's dog for many years while growing up whether it be as big as a Bernese Mountain Dog, Great Pyrenees, or as small as a Scottish terrier. I have had a dog of my own but has unfortunately passed on to the rainbow bridge at 11 years old. I have now had 2-3 years of experience watching dogs a few years ago before I started medical school and took a hiatus. I am back to hopefully help my community with dog sitting or walking. I love dogs and am comfortable with any dog you bring my way. I can play with your dog and take them on many walks and play with them outside either at the dog park or the state park. I have a welcoming apartment home for your pet to stay if needed. I am able to watch your pet full time. There will either be me or my husband at home to take care of your pet 24/7. I am highly compassionate, sensitive to needs, and have 100% attention to the pets I take care of. I make sure your pet gets all their needs taken care of whether it be to go outside for potty time, walking, or play and if they are hungry or just need a treat.
“Brooklyn helped me out last minute and checked on our dog, Harlow twice. She sent pictures after each visit and left a great report card on Harlow’s behavior. I was really happy with Brooklyn’s services! I definitely will be contacting Brooklyn in the future!”
“Bobbie was absolutely amazing with my two poodles! She did two drop-in visits and went above and beyond to make sure they were well taken care of. Not only did she play with them and keep them company, but she also made sure they were fed, which was a huge help. My poodles were happy and relaxed when I got home, and it was clear they enjoyed their time with her. Bobbie is reliable, caring, and great with dogs—I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

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.

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.
