“Alayza was really responsive throughout, and sent frequent updates. I especially appreciated being able to have a meet & greet prior to booking, to ensure my pups and Alayza would be comfortable with each other (and of course they were!). We will definitely work with her again!”
“This was my first time having someone other than family watch my dog overnight, and Aliyah put any worries that I had at ease. She was able to follow all of my instructions, and maintained good communication with me daily regarding my dog while I was away. She even sent pictures and videos of him 😊 One thing that is helpful for my dog is his routine, and Aliyah maintained his normal routine without any issues. She also maintained a clean space while I was gone. I’d definitely book Aliyah again if I have to leave my dog overnight! She’s dependable, trustworthy, and easy to work with. My dog loves her! We are very appreciative!”

“Ada was amazing!! This was my first time using the App and she made me feel so comfortable. She agreed to a meet and greet prior to my house sitting dates and my dogs loved her instantly. She was very communicative and kept me informed on everything. As this was my first time leaving my babies with anyone outside of family, we were all a bit nervous and hoping this was a good match. My mom even checked in with Ada and she was totally cool with. My mom and dog both have dogs and we are pretty certain Ada has 3 new clients. Ada maintained my home wonderfully. She really was patient with and understanding and I would recommend her 10/10, especially for new clients.”

About: Hi! I'm an experienced animal caregiver with over three years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, as well as livestock. Working with a variety of animals has taught me how important patience, consistency, and careful observation are when it comes to providing excellent care. I pay close attention to each animal's behavior, appetite, energy levels, and routines so I can quickly notice when something seems different or needs attention. Caring for animals is a daily part of my life. Every day I care for my own animals, so I am used to maintaining feeding schedules, monitoring health and behavior, and making sure animals are safe and comfortable. Because animal care is already a priority in my routine, I can easily incorporate visits, walks, playtime, and check-ins for clients' pets throughout the week. I enjoy building trust with animals and providing reliable care that helps owners feel at ease while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I follow all feeding instructions, ensure fresh water is always available, provide exercise and playtime, clean litter boxes or pick up waste, and give plenty of attention and companionship. I also closely monitor each pet's behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where pets receive individualized attention, exercise, and affection. I make sure they have a comfortable space to rest and follow any specific instructions provided by their owners regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special needs.
About: I have sharpened my abilities in dog care and customer service, ensuring that the pets under my supervision receive the highest level of care and attention. My commitment to safety rules and adaptability allows me to handle various situations with ease, whether walking multiple dogs or catering to the unique needs of each pet. I possess a strong set of skills including cleaning, dog care, customer service, communication, time management, and problem solving. My strengths such as adaptability, responsibility, attention to detail, patience, reliability, and work ethic further enhance my ability to excel in this role. I have hands on experience working in professional dog daycare environments, including at Dogtopia and The Board Hound. In these roles, I cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments in a structured group setting. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, ensuring safety and positive behavior, feeding and basic care routines, and maintaining a clean, controlled environment. This experience helped me develop strong skills in dog behavior management, calm handling in high energy situations, and building trust with both pets and their owners. Currently Monday-Friday my availability is open. Have time in the morning, lots of time in the afternoon, I can also do overnight if its needed. I like to work with my clients to get an understanding of their pet's daily routine, including feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements.
“Taylor was fabulous! She watched our two dogs at our house for a week and took excellent care of them. She communicated well and left the house in pristine condition. Overall, a wonderful experience!”
About: Hi! I have been a pet parent for most of my life. I enjoy helping others in my community feel safe and less stressed with leaving their loved ones with someone! I can adjust to your needs and make things easy as possible. I usually respond very quickly and I am open to short notices as well! I am currently building an app and finishing up my Masters degree. I am looking for something to earn income while I finish strong on these projects. I have 3 rooms, I have doggy parks, normal parks, and various pet stores near me and vets for emergencies. I have an experienced pet owner besides myself available as well. I clean every two days in general and I clean my cats litter 1-2 times a day depending as well.
“Javien is amazing! He stepped in to care for our dogs for a few days at our place with barely any notice. Our dogs adored him right away! He also handled our dog’s diabetic needs, including insulin injections. Plus, he kept us in the loop with updates all day. We felt so confident that our dogs were in good hands, even when we needed a sitter last minute. We’re definitely going to ask Javien again for future pet sitter needs! Thanks, Javien!”
“Sereniti took care of my brood for two weeks while I was on vacation. They absolutely love her and so do I! She sends pictures, she lets me know what's going on. I was very secure in the knowledge that they were well taken care of by someone who loves them 😊 i would absolutely recommend Sereniti!! She is amazing 😊”
“Bryan was amazing with my baby Sage! I literally just rescued her a week prior. She was heavily malnourished and untrained but full of love! When most Rovers would say no to a newly rescued pup, Bryan came to the rescue!!!! He sent pics of her and gave me updates, he had no problem calling or texting with questions. He is a saint and I couldn’t have asked for a better Rover!!”
“Crystal is amazing!! Thank you for taking such great care of Chelsea. I greatly appreciate the updates and photos you provided. Can’t wait to have you watch her again soon :)”
“Dahlya house sat for us over the holidays and took great care of our cat and new kitten! We came home to a clean house, with happy kitties whose box was clean and they were well fed. This was our first time working with Dahlya, and we would definitely book again. She was reliable, provided regular updates, and kind.”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life! I’ve had both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have helped care for family members’ pets when needed. My experience includes caring for puppies who need extra supervision, as well as a senior dog who required medication. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to changes in a pet’s behavior and needs. I’m comfortable following your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and daily routines within my experience. I understand that every pet is different, and I want to make sure yours receives attentive, loving care tailored to their needs. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I enjoy having the opportunity to give pets extra attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m organized, dependable, and happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their usual routine while their favorite humans are away. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, and any special care your pet needs. I believe in providing plenty of love, patience, attention, and companionship while respecting each pet’s unique personality. Whether that means playtime, a walk around the neighborhood, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I also love sending photo updates and messages so you can see how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. Your home, your pet’s routine, and your instructions will always be treated with care and respect. ❤️🐾
About: Growing up I’ve had all sorts of pets! Ranging from reptiles to aquatic animals. I started dog walking when I was a child by walking dogs that belonged to neighbors or nearby family. As I got older they would offer me to dog sit for them and it’s something I really enjoy. I work a part time, split shift job. Leaving me with free time in between shifts and on weekends if not working overtime, to play and care for the animals. I have a fenced back yard with outdoor leaches. I normally let pets roam the yard and I also take them for walks or to known fields and dog parks.
“Khadijah took amazing care of our two kitties and our home while we were away. The cats warmed up to her quickly, and she kept us updated regularly, which really helped us relax and enjoy our trip. We even had a brief wifi/electricity outage during her stay, and she handled it with total patience and flexibility. We'd absolutely trust her again for future sits and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Joint Base Andrews walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Joint Base Andrews maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Joint Base Andrews choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
