About: I’ve been a veterinary technician for 5 years working in primarily emergency services but also general practice, oncology and ophthalmology. I’m comfortable and confident with animals of every age, temperment and practice a fear free approach. Rest assured your pet will be loved and well cared for at all times. I’m available for sitting, walks and medication administration, boarding and day care I currently manage a veterinary hospital but I am able to take pets to work with me daily alongside my golden retriever Appa. If your pet prefers to hangout at home instead I have pet cameras to monitor them while I am working. I have 32 acres of property and an invisible fence available for dogs in need of some exercise. My home is 2 stories and big enough to accommodate large dogs. I have a spare bedroom dedicated to my cats filled with toys and towers for them so I can easily assist felines in need of a more confined space
About: All my life, I’ve lived with pets. My family and I have had dogs with varying personalities, sizes and exercise needs. I’ve taken care of larger lab mixes all the way to the tiniest Chihuahuas. In 2020, I joined the crazy cat lady club, and I currently have 3 cats of my own, but still frequently care for my family dogs while they’re away. What I can provide for you and your pet is personal and quality pet care because as a life long pet owner, I would want someone to do the same to my own pets! Contact me now to get a booking started! I have a free summer since I was a full time teacher. Currently, I have a part time seasonal job in Starkville that will pick back up when football season starts. I have a pretty open schedule! I like to be active so walks would be enjoyable for me. I typically am in town for most major holidays as my family leaves nearby, so I can look in during the holidays. I am willing to travel. When I was still in college, I used to look in on my friends’ pets while they were out of town. Large dogs do not frighten me, and I have frequently taken 50+ pound dogs on walks. I have helped my grandmother care for her senior blind diabetic dog and gave him insulin injections.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a dedicated pet parent myself, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to cater to them with patience and attentiveness. I have experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who require gentle care and medication management. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Plus, I provide regular updates and pictures so you always know how your furry friend is doing. With me, your pet isn’t just getting a sitter—they’re getting a new friend who will treat them like family! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own who keep me active and engaged. Every day, I make time for walks, play sessions, feeding schedules, and cuddle breaks, ensuring they get the attention and care they need. Because of this, integrating additional pets into my routine is seamless—I’m already in the habit of providing consistent, loving care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I prioritize each pet’s unique schedule. I’m also flexible and can adjust my routine to fit the specific needs of the pets I’m caring for, whether that means extra exercise for high-energy dogs or a slower, more relaxed pace for seniors. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s a lifestyle I love! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent to reduce any stress. I ensure they receive meals on time, get plenty of exercise and bathroom breaks, and have companionship while their owners are away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pet is in great hands. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean and following any special instructions provided. No matter where I’m caring for a pet, my focus is on providing the same level of love and attention I’d want for my own!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
