“Eric helped me out at last minute when my other sitter was a no show. He was wonderful at communicating with me and sending pictures. Will definitely be using him next time. Thank again!”
“We appreciated Ashlyn work, she tried her best to follow the instructions to take care of our sweet cat, she was flexible with scheduling and showed up as expected. Definitely looking forward for future opportunities.”
“Stephanie was very kind and loving to our two dogs while we were on vacation in Florida. She played with them, cuddled, fed them and made sure they had water. We loved her pictures she took of our two doggies. It was a comfort knowing Stephanie was taking good care of our sweet dogs.”
“Kelly was great with our FOUR dogs and at a.last moments notice! She was a lifeaver for our change of holiday plans and to attend my son's graduation. She sent photos and kept us updated on each of her visits. Recommended and we will.use her again! Thanks Kelly!!”
About: I have lived with dogs starting at age 13 and been a part of raising 3 dogs in all the time since then. I pay special attention to a dog’s needs, having participated in both puppy training and frequent monitoring and potty breaks/clean up for senior dogs. I go as far as picking a dog up off the ground if no paw slips are available during sweltering conditions! My dog experience has been within the 40-70 pound range, but I can only walk a dog up to 40 pounds (unless the large dog is off-leash trained/VERY focused on their walker and doesn’t pull). Playtime is something I value in providing dogs as a form of both physical exercise and mental enrichment. I provide updates and pictures to both showcase my accountability/standards and give an owner peace of mind while their pets are under my supervision. I follow any instructions and preferences provided by an owner very closely, making sure to review them before service is provided. The trust of an owner and their pet(s) are of utmost importance to me to respect and earn. I am very excited to work with more owners and animals! Thank you for reading! My dog sleeps in my room with me, so I typically wake up early to let her outside to use the bathroom. Then, we socialize with family, and we give her treats throughout the day. She loves chasing a ball in our woodsy backyard, so I make sure to do that with her until she’s panting and thoroughly spent. She eats one bowl a day in the evening with either dried nutritional supplement or leftover dinner from a previous night (she’s spoiled!). Plenty of opportunities to go out to use the bathroom, especially before bedtime. Lots of snuggles. She currently has a lot of my time and attention as I seek full-time work, but I always make sure to let her use the bathroom before I would normally go to work. This kind of intimate care where I spend a great amount of quality time with my dog is how I like to be with pets that are in my care. Frequent check-ins as needed, if not spending a great deal of time together so the pet doesn’t feel lonely in the owner’s absence! Routine is essential for animals, and I try to keep a consistent one with my dog. Routine and consistency will absolutely be kept for any animals in my care. Punctuality and reliability are very important to me— as well as pets!
About: I have a lifetime experience of taking care of many pets at home, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and reptiles. I am responsible, attentive, and committed to making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own ! I am currently working part-time, so I am very flexible and able to stop by or stay whenever! I can schedule my day around your pets needs! I prioritize every pet’s safety and comfort. I follow all care instructions carefully and ensure that I am providing enough attention at the same time. I will send pictures and updates as well for peace of mind.
About: I grew up with pets galore. From a young age I've had dogs, of all sizes, cats, a bird, and even turtles. I have experience caring for sick pets and elderly pets. Since I was about 14 years old I have been watching neighbors and friends pets. In addition I have volunteered at several animal shelters and currently am a volunteer with my local shelter, so i have walked dogs of all kinds. I am calm in a crisis and will keep you updated at all times. I work at an elementary school! So, during the school year I work 7:15 to 3:15. During the summer and breaks my schedule is more open! I have my own dogs, so they go in a fenced in yard. But I also walk them. So, when it comes to others pets I will happily do whatever your pet needs! I can happily feed, walk, play, etc with any of your pets. If they need meds, I am comfortable ensuring they get them.
About: I love animals since I was a kid and I’ve always grown up with them! As a young student and hard-worker I haven't had time to adopt a baby as my own to give them all the attention in the world, but with school slowing down I have the time to get back into spending time with animals 🥺. I’ve baby sat animals over the years for friends and family, I’ve had cats and dogs and kitties, good at walking and taking care of them! I’m a part-time server and taking classes online this summer so plenty of time to take care of your precious pet. I’m a cardio bunny so I am pretty much available whenever you need me to come walk your dog, maybe come for a few hours to watch them! My hours are pretty flexible, weekends, mornings, nights, you let me know! I am good at following directions and respecting peoples homes and systems! With whatever certain rules or schedules you have in place for your animal, I can do what is needed based on the guidelines you want in place.
“Angel made the process very easy. I’m a first time user fornRover, and Angel was happy to teach me some tips and tricks for using the app. She took pictures of the boys which were absolutely adorable. She came on time as expected and followed the care instructions perfectly.”
“It was great to have Sarah drop in & take care of our dogs! Luna is very shy & takes a bit to warm up to new people. When Sarah came over for a meet & greet I could tell Luna like Sarah right away. That’s a big relief for me! Tito loves everybody so I wasn’t too concerned about him. Sarah did a great job & communicated with me throughout. I will definitely have her come back!”
“Johanna is great with my puppy. She plays with him and cuddles him and he's always excited to see her. She even brings in my packages when she sees them outside. I would recommend her.”
“Joanna was great with Kobe! She was super reliable, always on time for her drop-ins, and kept me in the loop the whole time with excellent communication. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Cheyenne updated me on everything about both my animals and took care of them exactly how I wanted. To what I had seen in pictures my animals absolutely loved her and ended up becoming extremely comfortable with her!”
“Caroline is an excellent sitter, even in difficult situations! My dogs absolutely love her and we do too! She makes sure to check in, message us for any questions and She's flexible too!”
About: I've cared for over 20 dogs in the past 10 years & have great love for them! Trying to familiarize myself with any and all types, so I would be happy to care for yours. I work less than 10 mins from my home & am fairly available to be wherever I am needed. I would also be able to provide consistent potty breaks & check ups Anytime I work with animals I make sure to give them their space first, and slowly acclimate myself to them. I also am super friendly & fun so if they're more high-energy, I can make sure to match their levels as well
“Skye did a great job, she was punctual and had great communication. Ginger enjoyed her company. I will be happy to use Skye next time I need help with Ginger, I would definitely recommend.”
“Kristin looked after my 2 dogs for a long weekend and did an amazing job!! The pups had the best time and absolutely loved her! They love playing ball and she made sure to throw the ball with them at every drop in visit. She also gave them lots of pets and snuggles. She updated me about everything and sent the cutest photos at each visit. One of my pups needed an antibiotic and she did great administering her medication. Kristin took the best care of my babies and I will definitely call her again next time I need a pet sitter!”
About: Your pets deserve the best, and I’m here to deliver! I’ve been loving and caring for animals my entire life, and today I’m the proud pet parent of a sweet Tabby cat named Calla and an energetic Golden Retriever named Roo. From energetic puppies to sensitive cats, I understand the unique personalities and needs of both species. Whether it’s an active midday walk or a cozy drop-in visit, I promise to treat your furry family members with the exact same love, patience, and attention I give my own! :) Because I work from home, I have excellent flexibility throughout the day. This makes it easy for me to adapt to your pet's unique schedule for dog walks and drop-in visits, whatever time works best for you. Your furry family members will get reliable, attentive care exactly when they need it. Feel free to reach out—I’m here to help! :) For Drop-In Visits: My goal is to keep your pet’s routine seamless and stress-free. For cats, I handle feeding, fresh water, meticulous litter box scooping, and plenty of chin scratches or playtime. For dogs, I focus on quick potty breaks, feeding, and affection. I treat your home with the utmost respect, ensure everything is secure before I leave, and always send photo updates! For Dog Walking: Safety is my top priority. I keep your pup secure on their leash and adapt to their pace—whether they want a brisk workout or a slow, sniff-heavy stroll. Afterward, I’ll wipe muddy paws, refresh their water bowl, and make sure they are happily settled back inside.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lawrenceville
Chelsea has been our go to doggie sitter for the past year or two. Hope absolutely loves her and I love her thorough messages. Recently I had to book a different sitter because Chelsea was traveling at the same time as me and let's just say the other sitter wasn't as thorough with her updates.
Daniela & her husband Felipe were incredibly responsive and communicated with me throughout the entire time they cared for my pets. They made sure everyone was safe, were fed, had water, got to go outside to do what they needed to do, they played with them, and loved on them. They were truly attentive to their needss. I'm sure my pets will miss them so much!
Absolutely amazing! She took care of our dogs at such short notice and treated them as if they were here own. She constantly sent us pictures and videos the entire time and we could tell our animals adored her! Will be utilizing her services again if we ever need a sitter.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Lawrenceville 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.
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.

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.
To find sitters in Lawrenceville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
