About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’ve been a cat owner for the past 9 years and have had a husky for almost 7 years, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of both cats and dogs. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll care for yours as if they were my own. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, receive lots of attention, or simply relax in a calm environment, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs and routine. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to details like feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, litter box maintenance, medications (if needed), and plenty of love and companionship. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is already a part of my everyday life, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Because I have open availability, I can easily accommodate your pet’s routine, whether they need multiple visits, long walks, playtime, feedings, medication, or just some extra love and attention. I’ll make sure your pet receives reliable, attentive care while you’re away. During drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes for cats, potty breaks for dogs, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. For dog walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets a safe, enjoyable walk at a pace that’s appropriate for their age, energy level, and needs. I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety, ensure they have water when needed, and return them home happy and comfortable.
About: How owners want there furry friends to be loved is how they will be expected and treated the best way possible! They will be cared for in the best way possible. I let out or walk dogs in the morning and during my lunch time I walk them again and right after work I walk them again. And right before bed I walk them again. How ever the owner wants me to take care of there furry friend I take care of them how they are expected to be loved
“Maritess is very professional and she does an excellent job with our girls. She sends plenty of pictures (which are always very well taken)and we can tell that our cats are very comfortable around her.”
About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.
“Morgan did a fantastic job! Our puppy is a bit of a handful and she took the time to let her warm up to her by playing with her and giving her treats before taking both dogs for a walk so my husband and I could enjoy a night out. She was kind, considerate, and really put my mind at ease even though I was far from home. Thank you Morgan! ❤️”
“Absolutely wonderful!!! My kitties were comfortable with her right away which allowed me to leave knowing they were in good hands!!! Everything was clean and kitties were well fed and well loved! Thanks Katie!!!'”
About: I have experience with all breeds big or small, all ages they are well cared for. I own a two year old German shepherd mix, she loves play and looks forward to making new friends. I will keep up with the schedule you have them set on, and I can administer medication/ ointment. I’m a navy reservist so my schedule is flexible, breakfast is served around 8. Then a morning walk around 9, there’s a park in my apartment so we can stop there hangout till 930. Around noon they’ll be taken out again and they’ll be out till about 1pm. The rest day will be filled with enrichment activities, and lots of playing. Dinner is served around 530-6. And they’ll be let out one more time around 7, hangout for an hour or so. Then they’ll be crated around 830-9. There is a dog park located at my apartment complex, they’ll have free access to. I’ll take them to a much bigger area to go run and play. And we’ll go on longer walks.
“Brianna was a life saver when our regular cat sitter had an emergency and couldn't cat sit for our upcoming trip only a few days away. She came by the next day for a meet and greet which was so nice! During our trip she took lots of picture and gave great updates on each of our cats which I LOVED! I have a very aggressive cat and she handled him with ease. I will be using her again and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Nicole was so wonderful! She took such good care of my pups and gave me very detailed updates with tons of cute photos. I could tell my fur babies loved her and I really appreciated how she went above and beyond to take care of them and honestly take care of me (by keeping me updated, trying to tiring them out, etc.) while I was gone. I will 100% use Nicole again!”
About: Well first off I’m a huge animal person so I have 3 dogs and a cat. I have been around animal my entire life, so I’m really great with them. I love to play and take care of them because to me they are not just dogs to me they are family. My dogs are very easygoing and gets along great with other dogs. I have taking care of other friends and families dogs while they are away. When they are with me I play,spoil them just a bit and treat them as if they were my own. My special skills is that I’m training to be a vet assistant. That is what I like to do. My availability is mon - Saturday from 7 am - 4:30pm
“Highly recommend!!! Meaghan not only accepted a pet sit for me on short notice but was a great communicator, kind and kept us informed. She was also super punctual and thoughtful about the meds she was giving and what our dogs needed. I had great peace of mind knowing she was caring for our babies while we were out of town.”
“Rebecca was amazing and went far and beyond! She came and met our pets prior to our booking date and sent us pictures and videos every single day! Our pets absolutely loved her. We can’t recommend her enough and will book in the future.”
About: I have lifetime experience caring for pets, from puppies and kittens to adult and senior animals. I’m very patient and calm, which helps nervous or shy pets warm up to me. I’ve basic trained all of my dogs, sit, stay, recall, and leash walking. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, giving lots of affection, and keeping owners updated with pictures and messages. Your pet will always be treated with kindness, respect, and plenty of love. I’m currently a college student, and most of my classes are in the mornings. I only have two busy days during the week (Mondays and Fridays), but I still have plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings. The rest of the week I have a very flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to stop by for drop-in visits, walks, or cat care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I make sure they get attention, playtime, and consistent care. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter or regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I spend time playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company depending on what they enjoy. I also keep the home tidy and update owners with pictures and messages so they always know how their pets are doing.
About: I grew up with dogs and had a special bond with my family’s dog in college. She loved when I would take her on an “interval run.” I recently successfully fed my friend’s five dogs. Please, I would love to meet your dog(s) with you there to get to know them first. I am officially insured and bonded through Pet Sitters Associates in case of an inopportune incident taking place while my clients’ pets and homes are in my care. Insurance certificate available upon request if we move forward with a meet-and-greet. I work full-time 8 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. I don’t mind getting up early to check on your fur baby. I work in the 30904 zip code, so I could potentially check on them during my hourlong lunch break if you live close enough. I work to ensure that a pet who is not allowed outside a certain door stays inside. When I fed my friend’s five dogs a couple of months ago, I was told one was an escape artist, but I successfully left out of the front door without her getting out. Please let me know what command words your pet is familiar with.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to my Goldendoodle, Maxwell, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, providing walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration when needed, and plenty of love and attention. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me for years to care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I'm available in the early mornings Monday-Friday until 8 AM; I'm available from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM Monday-Friday evenings. I am also available 24/7 on Saturday and Sunday. I have a fenced in back yard that sits on almost an acre of grass so your fur babies can exercise and roam freely. I also provide a harness and a leash so we can go on walks. I also have a vehicle for us to get pup-cups if that is something the owner is interested in!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Amanda did an amazing job caring for my dog while I was away. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly love animals. I appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet caregiver.
It was a PLEASURE to have Nicole drop in on our baby, Maverick while we were out of town. Our usual sitter was unavailable for our last minute trip and I scrambled trying to find someone right before having to leave. Nicole was available to meet right away and she took the best care of him. I could tell from the moment he met her that he would love her. All of his check in pics had a huge smile on his little face lol We’ll definitely be booking with Nicole again in the future!
Meredith was absolutely incredible. This was my first time ever leaving my dog at home with in-home visits, and she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and clearly someone who truly loves animals. On day one, my sweet Bella had an accident, and Meredith handled it without hesitation. She cleaned everything up and reassured me right away, which meant more than she probably knows. This was Bella’s first time being left at home, and Meredith was so patient, gentle, and loving with her. She even brought toys and treats and made sure Bella felt comfortable, safe, and very well loved the entire time. I would 1,000% recommend Meredith to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their fur baby. Bella was cared for like she was her own, and I am beyond grateful.

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 Kingston 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
