About: Hello! Over the past 15 years, I've had the pleasure of working with two local rescues, fostering over 20 dogs of all shapes and sizes. Additionally, I've been a dog mom to 5 incredible souls: Freckles (English cocker spaniel), Lily (golden retriever), Bartlett (collie mix), Lenny (American cocker spaniel/pekenese mix), and now Sunny (a 2-year-old golden retriever mix). As each of the first four lived long, happy lives, I'm well-versed in all stages of our furry friends' lives (and comfortable with administering medication, if necessary). When I was teaching, I frequently worked summers at the Pets Hotel and Canine Country Club. Now that my schedule is more flexible year-round, I am happy to provide pet care that matches the level of care I give my own dog. I am very active by nature, so I love taking walks and will share updates and pictures along the way. Thank you for entrusting your furry family member to me; It is an honor, and I cannot wait to meet you and them. I have a very flexible career, so I'm able to accommodate most walk-ins/drop-ins with notice. I look forward to seeing my clients, and I will provide prompt feedback so you know exactly how the visit/walk/hike went! I take safety and trust extremely seriously. As a former educator, I have all my clearances, and I treat your furry family members as if they were my own. I have also fostered over 20 dogs in the last 15 years, so I'm comfortable with a variety of sizes and life stages.
“Isak was great! He agreed to check on Darin with short notice, and communicated quickly. He followed instructions, treated our home with care and from the pictures he sent, it looks like Darin had a blast with him! ☺️”
About: I've had a dog, multiple cats, 2 gerbil, and multiple fish growing up. I have also helped out friends with multiple pets throughout the years and want to continue to help those who work feel better their furry pets are having a caring friend look after them. I currently am available 8 AM to 4 PM Monday through Friday to check in and walk your pets. I loom forward to meeting you and your pets and help in any way I can! I feel getting to know each pet individually is important to be able to best take care of each dog or cat. I want to be able to best serve each pet to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away.
“We were so thankful that Rachel was able to check in on our cats during our vacation. Rachel responded quickly to the request. During the meet and greet she asked great questions so she could learn more about our cats. When she cared for them she was attentive to their needs, checked the litter box and even brought in a package:)”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, attentive, and highly aware of each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or older and more relaxed, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog with the same level of care, empathy, and attention I would want for my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and secure. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to accommodate different routines and energy levels while being attentive to each dog’s specific needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, energy level, and any specific instructions provided by the owner to help them feel secure and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and a clean environment. I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors, gates, and surroundings, and I always prioritize safety and communication. I also understand that every dog is different. Some need play and activity, while others need patience, consistency, and a calm presence. I adapt my care to what helps each pet feel most comfortable and happy.
About: I am very passionate about everything I do, so I can assure you that your pet will be taken care of with tons of attention and love. I’m currently working part time at nights, so I will have lots of time during the day and after school to care for and play with pets. I have had a lot of experience with different breeds of dogs, so I am qualified to meet your pets needs no matter what shape or size!
About: I’ve taken care of childhood dogs since I was 12. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, and playing with all sorts of animals growing up. I would be able to care for pets during the weekends and after 430pm weekdays. It is a great way not only to bond with animals but also get my daily exercise in. In a clients home, I would be able to feed the dog, play with it, and take it on walks like it was my own animal. For walking, I would make sure they enjoyed themselves, and add some play time in as well to make it more rewarding for the animal.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for dogs of all different ages and breeds since I was little. I’m very patient, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I always want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! :) I’m a college student with morning classes and a part-time job, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have plenty of room to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend my free time hanging out with your furry friends! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime! I’ll follow your instructions, stick to their usual routine, and make sure they have everything they need while you’re away. I’ll also be respectful of your home and leave everything neat and tidy! :)
About: Hi! I grew up on a farm and have taken care of a variety of animals since I was small. In addition to cat and dog sitting, I have taken care of other people's horses, cows, and hogs. I love taking long walks and would love to care for your four legged friends! Right now, overnight house and pet sitting is the best fit. I'm a theatre artist and have some shows lined up for the fall. I would also be able to do mid-day walks. Unfortunately, because I share with several room-mates, I would have to care for your pet in your home. However, I am responsible and detail oriented, and would take good care of your space while I'm there.
“Tasha was great! Accepted and responded to my request in a very timely manner. She was great with my dog Jax and fulfilled everything I could ask for in a dog sitter. I would definitely recommend and would use again in the future!”
About: I've owned and have taken care of many fur babies and other small animals throughout my life. Helped deliver a few litters of kittens and a litter of puppies also have administered medication to several of my own fur babies.I have also taken care of my fur baby that injured her spin and was unable to walk. I am a stay at home grandmother and would love to care for your fur babies while you are out and about. There is a safe fenced in back yard were your fur babies can enjoy playtime or just enjoy the laying out in the sun. I am a stay at home grandmother and I'm available for boarding throughout the week and weekends . Your fur babies will always have constant care and playtime. We live in a townhome that has a sliding glass door where my fur babies love to hang out and watch the bunnies and squirrels. Lots of sun that comes through my kitchen window where they also love to relax in the sun.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lancaster Junction
I think Alyssa was an excellent cat sitter. Chloe, my cat, can be a little territorial, but Alyssa seems to have taken it in stride and managed to get through the week. She made my vacation possible and worry free. I felt very confident that she would put Chloe at ease and do the things she needed to do.

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
