About: I have had dogs my whole life and have cared for them through all the stages of life from puppy to senior! I have been dog and cat sitting for friends, family, and clients for over 4 years. I have cared for every size of animal, from fish and hamsters to horses and cows! I do it all. I am very flexible as I am freelance with my other work. I plan my schedule around when I am needed for visits and such. I currently have one dog, a golden retriever and lab mix, named Korra who is the goofiest and sweetest dog ever. She truly is a member of our family and I will care for your animals as if they are my own because I know how much they mean to you as a member of your family. However you typically care for your pets is how I will do upon your request.
“Kristen was very flexible in discussions concerning care options and dates, and provided updates from the visits. I will definitely be using her services again for my precious pups.”

About: I am a 30 year old female who loves all animals. I have grown up with animals all my life and have owned many of my own pets.

About: Since I was a child, I've been raising and taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I've nursed plenty of bottle babies- kittens, puppies and even rodents and farm animals. I've worked at the Chattanooga Zoo and volunteered at shelters across the country, so there's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't seen before! I currently work full-time 5 days a week, 8-10 hour shifts, so I have to schedule around that. The rest of my day will be dedicated to your pet(s)! I love matching a pet's energy and I'm happy hanging out on the couch or running circles in the yard- whatever the situation calls for!
About: I have cared for both dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens for over 20 years. The love of animals helps me to care for them in the most precious ways. I will work hard to earn your trust and theirs! I have reserved my time and skills to become a full-time animal lover and provider. I enjoy caring for animals and can multitask while caring for several at the same time. My new friends are fed, played with & taken out for bath room breaks, exercise, and comforted by me. If they have any needs, it can be met by me using my lengthy experience caring for all types of animals.

About: Hi! I am an avid animal lover and pet owner. Mom to 3 dogs ranging in size from Lab/Shepherd mix to dachshund. I have great sized yard with plenty of room for walks and exercise. I have a separate kennel area if your pets need to be separated from mine. My dogs get along well with other dogs, they are both inside and outside and are welcome on furniture, beds, etc. Although born and raised a country girl in AL, I lived in San Diego CA for 15 years where I got lots of experience being a dog sitter. It is something I have always enjoyed. Your dog will have a great time roaming with us! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to provide consistent care, attention, exercise, and lots of love. I make time every day for feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets feel safe and comfortable. I’m organized and dependable, and I understand that pet owners need someone they can trust to maintain their pets’ routines while they’re away. Pet care isn’t just a task for me; it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I provide loving, attentive care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow each pet’s specific feeding schedule, walking routine, medication instructions if needed, and preferred playtime and cuddle time. I make sure they have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their fur babies are in good hands. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to make each pet feel safe, loved, and cared for just like they would be with their own family.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both energetic puppies and aging senior pets, I bring patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I’ve administered medications, handled special dietary needs, and trained basic commands. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment while you’re away, so your pets feel calm, happy, and well-cared for. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring consistent routines and lots of affection. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or managing health needs, I’m here to help your pet thrive. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my day around feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and play sessions. Whether I’m working remotely or running errands, I make sure pets receive consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m flexible and can easily adjust my schedule to meet the specific needs of each pet, including early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins per day. I prioritize safety and comfort above all. In my home or yours, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free from hazards. I follow all care instructions closely—whether it’s administering medication, monitoring food intake, or reinforcing training. I build trust through gentle, consistent interaction, always respecting each pet’s personality and boundaries.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 688 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Irvington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
