“Nicole is awesome! She gives our dogs lots of love and treats, and makes sure everyone gets their bathroom break and a walk in the middle of the day. It helps that she has experience at a veterinarian’s office and dog training as well. Nicole’s very accommodating and I highly recommend her to others looking for pet care!”
“Rejon is absolutely lovely! She took great care of my senior Yorkie and left me very detailed reports for every drop in. Will absolutely use her again in the future ☺️”

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. My first pet-sitting job was for one of my mom's friends when I was in third grade, and I absolutely loved it. I have had both cats and dogs my entire life, so I am comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I am also a proud cat mom of my twin kitties, Willow and Poppy. I am a recent college graduate currently working full-time while pursuing my master's degree. My schedule has taught me to be dependable, organized, and responsible. As a pet mom myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry friends. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe and loved in my care. I work full-time during the week (8 am-4 pm), but I have plenty of availability in the evenings for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets. My weekends are typically completely open. I enjoy spending time with animals, and I genuinely look forward to it outside of work. Your pet's safety and care are my top priority! During drop-in visits, I will make sure your pet has fresh water, food, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I will also follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable while you are away. I know every pet is unique, so I'll treat yours with the same patience, care, and respect that I give my own. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for while you're away.
About: I have experience with dogs of various temperaments since I volunteer at local animal shelters. My two previous dogs at home were large dogs, so I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. My senior dog recently passed so I also have experience taking care of older dogs. I'm currently enrolled in college, so I have availability Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons/evenings to check in on your pets. My weekends are free, allowing for a very flexible schedule. I respect the home of any client, as well as their pets. I ensure a calm and patient environment to make each visit comfortable for your dog.
“Our doggie looked sooo happy and rested when I got back & I know that’s b/c of J’s care. We have an older elderly dog with unique medical needs. This is the sitter you want their patience and care was excellent. Looking forward to rebooking them soon very soon indeed.”
“Carissa is the best of the best!! She treated our two cats like they were her own while we were away. Her communication was great and we came home to a clean house and two well cared for babies. Highly recommend!!”
About: My What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. Most of my experience comes from cat sitting, where I’ve learned how to care for pets with different personalities, including shy and anxious animals that need extra attention and consistency. As a track and field athlete, I’m very active and dependable, which makes me a great fit for energetic dogs that need regular walks and exercise. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every pet like my own. I would do it either before or after work. I would also do it on the weekends as needed by customers. I’d do it as often as I’m needed I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and get regular walks or exercise when needed. I also keep living areas clean, including litter boxes or pet-related messes, and provide updates so owners feel comfortable while away. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they are energetic, shy, or prefer a calmer environment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Johnson City
Nicole was just wonderful on her drop in with Spock. Followed instructions for dealing with his food, water, treats, litter box. Even keeping tabs on his destructive kitten capabilities without any problems. Pets, a brushing, play. She was so attentive. Received great proof of "I didnt destroy the entire house without you Mom" pictures too!! Will definately booking her again.
Great services. Carissa is really patient and thoughtful taking care of my cats. And she always tries best to do all care stuff and asks me if she has any concerns. She sent me many photos during the drop-in visit and my cats are really comfortable with her, even the timid one. I really appreciate her help while I am out of town. And I will select her service again if I am out of town in the future.
Abigail was amazing! We could not be happier to have found such a wonderful sitter/walker for our girl Molly. With Molly being a rescue and rather new to our family, I was nervous to leave her and afraid she would not do well without us. However, Abigail, gave her so much love and attention.... we came home to a happy and healthy doggie. Thank you so much Abigail! We look forward to having you visit Molly again...

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 Johnson City 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.

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.
