About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I've been caring for pets since I was 10 years old and have completed multiple dog training courses with dogs my family and I have owned. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, reactive dogs, and animals who may need a little extra patience or guidance. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. As a nurse, I'm detail-oriented, dependable, and comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions. I can help with walks, runs, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of love and attention! My schedule is flexible while I pursue my next nursing position, allowing me to dedicate time and attention to your pets. I'd love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, capable hands! I recently moved back home from Colorado and am taking a little time to recharge before starting my next nursing chapter! I've been a nurse for five years and love caring for others, but I've always had a special soft spot for animals. I'm excited to spend some extra time caring for furry friends and giving them plenty of love and attention. My schedule is currently very flexible, and I'm available most days for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and cuddles. I'm happy to work with your pet's routine and provide attentive, reliable care while you're away! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their usual routines and following all instructions provided by their owners. I know pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, so I take the time to get to know their individual personalities, needs, and preferences. I'm happy to help with feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication administration, and plenty of affection and companionship. I will always treat your home with respect and provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your furry family members are in good hands!
“Jazlin was wonderful with my cats!! It was such a relief knowing they were well cared for while I was away. Both cats warmed up to her! That means a lot. I hated the idea of them hiding...but I didn't need to worry...they both came out to meet her. She was super easy to work with and had great communication...I'd definitely book her again! Thanks, Jazlin!!!”
About: I have been babysitting and pet sitting for 5+ years. I love animals and always have! I love running around with them, taking them to the park, throwing their ball, playing tug of war, etc. Animals are family and should be treated as such! I am prepared for puppies all the way to old aged dogs. I have been around dogs my entire life and as they have provided me with happiness I intend to always do the same back. I am available to meet the animals before hand and have a meeting so that we know we are a right fit! Don’t hesitate to ask about any extra things while your gone like watering the plants, cleaning, or running errands. Me and your dog will have an amazing time! I am currently a nurse so my schedule is constantly changing. I typically work three 12hr shifts during the week! I just wanted to add this to my weekly regimen because this is something I did before becoming a nurse and miss. I am excited to meet you and your pets! I will care for your babies the same way I care for mine - with love, patience, and playfulness. I can also do extra care such as watering plants!
“Brelynn is amazing! She was so kind and gentle with my senior dog, who needs medicine hidden in wet food and also needs assistance getting up and down the stairs to my deck. Even in frigid January temperatures, Brelynn gave my dog the outdoor time she needed and then cuddled with her indoors for the rest of the visit. She gave my dog more time and attention than I can provide over a rushed lunch hour, and I’m so grateful for the loving care she gave my doggy!”
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I was about 9 years old! I had a hamster growing up and we had two family dogs growing up. I have experience taking care of other people's animals as well as taking care of family pets such as my sister's dog (beagle mix) and my parent's dogs (two Chesapeake bay retrievers and a rescue hound). I also have experience taking care of cats for family & friends! I also have experience helping take care of newborn puppies, as my stepdad breeds Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. I love animals and I am very passionate about taking care of them and have always had a special place in my heart for them. As of right now I work full time, from 8am-5pm I am available evenings after 5pm and I am available on weekends. I could also potentially be available on my lunch break depending on the location, as I get an hour lunch break daily from 11am-12pm. I unfortunately can't offer in-home services at this time. I will be sure to follow any instructions or guidelines you need met for your fur-baby. I am a respectful individual and I will be sure your pet has the best care!

“Laurie was AWESOME. She was so attentive and understanding. My pup had an upset stomach and she didn’t even think about it and helped clean it up. I was so embarrassed but she was so sweet about it. She’s the best.”
About: I've owned and cared for cats and dogs my entire life. I've worked as a pet sitter and dog walker for many families. I have 2 cats and a dog. I've had my dog for 10 years. He's now in his senior years which makes me familiar with senior care including twice daily administration of medications. I have always been an animal lover. I would love a chance to help you with your furry family! I work long hours during the week but I am fully available weekends for check-ins, walks and boarding. In special circumstances we could work something out if you need additional care on week days. I treat them like my own. Lots of play, love and attention. I have a large yard with lots of grass to play in. I have a crate if that's part of their routine. Our pets are our family and sit on the couch and snuggle in bed. I have many quiet roads around for safe walks and a few dog friendly parks.
About: Prior to college I worked Noah's Caring Hands on Sunnyside Road as a pet care specialist. I worked there for almost 4 years, and I am experienced in all ranges of dog/cat ages and needs. Additionally, I have experience administering medication to animals and following specific dietary needs. I am experienced with daycare and boarding animals, and would be more than happy to care for your furry friend! I am available to cat/dog sit and walk for a majority of the weekends or evenings! I am pretty flexible after 4 pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I had a 17 year old dog whom I administered medications and treatments for throughout his long lifespan. Additionally I have a kitten. While my dog was alive he enjoyed hugs and kisses especially after medication time! After working with him for years and the other animals at the veterinary hospital I have become used to all age ranges and medical needs of each animal (cat and dog).
“Very attentive and careful while walking my husky that hasn’t always been well behaved on a leash. He even tried working with her to reduce her pulling. Gave her all the attention she needed when she was missing her family! Would absolutely use him again and recommend him to friends and family.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,078 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kirklin. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kirklin. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
