About: I have experience with dogs and cats (and other animals too). My house offers a great safe space for them. I also have a lot of at home time that can be dedicated to your loved animals! I have really quick classes in the morning, but the rest of them are online so I can stay at home and watch the pets for the majority of the day. The yard Is fenced. I can separate the dogs if needed. I can often take them for a walk. I watch carefully the feeding schedule and health of your dog.

About: We would make a great dog sitter because we genuinely love animals and have a natural ability to connect with them. We’re patient and understanding, which helps dogs feel comfortable and secure, whether we’re playing with them, feeding them, or taking them for walks. We’re reliable and attentive, always making sure to meet each dog’s needs, from exercise to medication. We’re also good at recognizing and responding to a dog’s mood or behavior, so we can adapt to any situation and keep them happy and safe. Additionally, we’re very organized, which helps us stay on top of their routines and preferences, giving dog owners peace of mind while they’re away. Our current schedule allows us to dog sit without worry because we have a flexible routine that gives us plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs. We’re able to adjust my plans to accommodate walks, playtime, feeding, and any special needs the dogs may have. Whether it's during the day or evening, we can provide consistent attention and care without any time constraints, ensuring that the dogs are happy, safe, and well looked after. This flexibility makes it easy for me to be present and fully committed to being a reliable dog sitter. We would be able to ensure the safety of the dogs while sitting because we’re highly attentive and proactive in monitoring their well-being at all times. We make it a priority to keep them in safe environments, whether it's securing gates, ensuring they’re on a leash during walks, or supervising them while they’re playing. We’re also familiar with basic dog first aid and am quick to recognize any signs of distress or discomfort, allowing us to act promptly if something goes wrong. Our commitment to their safety means we’re always alert and prepared to handle any situation that may arise, giving both the dogs and their owners peace of mind.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and begged for one, now many family friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed and walk their pets, along with keeping them company. I’m currently a college student home for the summer, I do not have any other job leaving me very available to care for your pets any day of the week. I will always ensure the pets are safely taken outside, such as being sure they will be leashed before going outside or making sure a backyard is safe for them before letting them out. I can also adapt to any specific needs a pet has, being as patient as needed.
“Such a great dog sitter, very sweet & kind to my dog & I! Lots of updates which I loved when I was on my trip, definitely will book again on the next trip that I’m not able to bring my girl!”

About: Ive grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and now Im literally obsessed with them! (Im the crazy lady who has to stop and talk to every dog). I have my dog Lucy since she was born at the rescue and shes about to turn 10, so I know how to care for dogs from puppy to elderly. Lucy has also thought me a lot about how to care for dogs who can be tempermental and reactive.

You can rest assured that your animal will be safe and loved with me! I work evenings 5 days a week so am available for morning/afternoon walks and drop ins. My schedule regularly changes so please just ask and I will try my best to accommadate you! I will only care for one animal at the time unless they are from the same family. Keeping your baby safe and happy is my top priority.

About: Veterinary technician with hands-on animal care experience Hi! I’m an experienced animal care provider with a background as a veterinary technician and hands-on experience working with horses, dogs, cats, and small animals. I’ve spent years working directly in animal care environments, including veterinary settings and stable work, where I gained experience with routine care, administering medications, monitoring health changes, and handling animals with a calm and patient approach—even in stressful situations. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I prioritize keeping them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether it’s a high-energy dog who needs structured walks, a senior pet needing gentle care and medication, or a horse that requires knowledgeable handling, I bring both experience and attention to detail to every visit. You can expect reliable communication, punctuality, and genuine care for your animals as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with special instructions, medical needs, and maintaining established routines. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I care for my pets daily, making sure they have the best care possible. I hold myself up to high standards in my animal care, and am the person to ask when a pet is acting strangely/sick by family & friends, or when they need some pet care advice. I will be sure to have your pet as healthy and happy as possible! I can read animal behavior, and I can usually detect illnesses the moment a pet displays any abnormal signs. I also can detect any reactivity any kind of pet displays and change my behavior based on any signs I see. Be advised, I may fall in love with your pet(s) if I care for them!!
“Kerrie is a delight and will do an amazing job providing love and comfort for your furry creature(s) will you are away. We've work with her a few times now and we'd happily request her again. We received photos of her and our cats while she visited and felt very informed when she was on her way to and from our home. In addition to her affection and care, Kerrie has become someone that I consider a friend that I would count on to be there when we aren't. I trust her and love that she sometimes brings her kiddos to provide additional love. And please don't let her being hearing loss stop you from requesting her because she reads lips and expresses herself perfectly! I even learned some new signs. XO”

“Erin did a fantastic job checking in on my two cats while I was on vacation! She had great communication, and I felt reassured that my cats were fed and happy and doing well. She even went above and beyond what I asked for by ensuring their area was cleaned and that they played with their toys and she sent me pictures of them, which reassured me they were doing fine while I was out of town. Would definitely have her back if needed in the future!”

About: Animals trust me right away. I understand animal behavior and have a calm, intuitive presence that makes them feel safe and relaxed—perfect for timid pets or those with anxiety. I have comprehensive experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals (cows, pigs, sheep, and goats). I am highly adaptable to their specific routines, meds, and unique needs. I treat every animal as my own, focusing on bonding and safety. My schedule is built around the needs of the animals I’m caring for. From morning feedings to evening walks, I make sure their routine stays consistent and they get the attention they deserve. I’m dedicated to creating a safe environment. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs to ensure they feel relaxed and secure while you’re away. I’m experienced in maintaining routines, administering oral medication, and recognizing signs of stress and discomfort.

I can not overstate how awesome Shannon is! She was incredibly kind and easy to work with and was wonderful with my pug, Clementine and her needs. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone who hopes to have their baby in good hands.

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.
