About: Hi I am Jamie! I am a longtime dog lover. Having a dog of my own, I know the importance of wanting someone trustworthy who will love and care for them as you would. My services will provide just that! I am a teacher off-duty for the summer. This allows me flexibility for drop-in visits. Drop-ins will be around 1 hour. During these visits I will feed/water your pup, provide exercise through play and walks, enrichment activity’s such as teaching your dog tricks, and love on your pup as if they are my own. Please reach out if you are in need of help this summer! I am a teacher who is off-duty for the summer. My day-to-day is extremely flexible. I can do early morning drop ins and mid day drop ins. When I am caring for your pup you can rest assured they are receiving the best. My full attention will be on them during visits.
“Kaylee is an excellent pet sitter and was so accommodating and helpful. She went above and beyond, and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about the pets. Would definitely book her services again!”
About: I have always had a love for dogs. I have worked at multiple different kennels and worked with multiple different dogs. Can administer medications if needed. I know how stressful it can be trying to find a reliable sitter, but I am here to help! I currently am not employed, so my availability is very open right now. Willing to do boarding in your home on weekends or weekdays as needed. Available to do potty breaks anytime of the day! I think dogs do best in familiar environments as well as with familiar people. I would love to watch your dog in your home, or swing by for potty breaks after meeting the dog a few times prior.
“Nicole did a great job taking care of Dinley. She walked and played with him and made sure he had food, water and potty breaks. She kept me informed every day on what he did and sent a picture each day as well. She was diligent and prompt and I would recommend her for your pet.”
About: I grew up in a family where our dogs (specifically Labradors) were equal members of the family, and spending time with them is a treasured part of my childhood memories. I grew up around dog care, and while every pup is different, the basics of dog care are intuitive for me. As an adult I am the proud “parent” of two lively, playful cats, who have taught me to expand my pet care knowledge and skills. I do commute to northeastern Oklahoma and back each weekday for work, but I can always plan around early morning visits or nighttime visits (after 7pm). Weekends are much more flexible for me. Regardless of the day or time, visiting with your pet is the best part of my day! It is my policy to treat your pets with the same care, respect, and love as I treat my own. I ensure to carefully uphold any routines or regimens that you establish for your pet with an interest to maintaining a sense of stability and normalcy for them in your absence. I understand that all pets are different, and I will respect your pet’s demonstrated comfort levels in getting to know each other. I am a guest in your home and will behave as such, treating your belongings with the respect and privacy they deserve. As far as pet safety goes, I believe in over-communicating rather than under-communicating, so you can rest assured you will hear from me if anything seems amiss.
“Gabby and Dalton were so good with our Finley. He is a “pet me!!” beggar and they were more than happy to accommodate him. They made sure he was fed and watered, that he had plenty of outdoor time, and of course, belly rubs! They kept us informed and provided pictures of their time with him. I would highly recommend you consider them for your pets.”
About: I have been pet sitting and taking care of pets ever since I could drive. I have also been raised around pets my entire life and they have been treated like Family and I cannot wait to treat your pets like they are my own. I have worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I love keeping them active or giving cuddles whenever they’re having a lazy day. Right now since it’s summer I am free during the day and most evenings! Once school starts back up I will be available in the afternoons and evenings! Of course I will always be available for overnight work, unless I am out of town! When watching a pet in their home I work to keep their schedule and routine and similar as possible whenever their family is home. I also try to add in some play time outside and walks! If needed I can clean up around the house as well! Dog families will truly never run out of pet hair ha! If a pet is staying at my home, they will be treated like family. I will bring familiar toys over for them and a favorite blanket! They will have the opportunity to play outside as I have 5 acres of land. If they need to be on a leash that is no problem! Pets that I am coming over to check on during the day/giving walks to will be active with me outside for the time that I need to be there! I love walks and being outside! If it’s a senior pup or one that hates being outside I will work to get them outside for a few minutes at a time and never push them out of their comfort zone!
“My pups LOVE Ashlee. We use her for boarding whenever we are out of town but I’ve recently requested her services for drop ins while I’m at work. She was flexible with the times I needed and willing to take the pups on multiple walks! So thankful for her!”
“Blake was awesome! Such a nice human and was very responsive, responsible, punctual and reliable during his time with Scarlett. He had recurring visits with her for a week before moving away otherwise we would have continued care with him!”
About: I grew up in Texas with two dogs and two cats. And I’ve had my currently dog, Theo, since he was 5 weeks old. And I also have experience with an elderly dog with diabetes needs. I am in grad school as well as a research assistant. I make my own hours making my schedule flexible. I’m excited to meet new pets. I will keep your space clean and allow your pet the most comfortable experience I can I am in grad school and a research assistant. I have class MWF 9-10 am. Then TTh 11-12:15 &2-3:15. I create my own hours for research. So otherwise I am normally flexible on time! I love going on walks with dogs, time/distance depending on breed and age. Every dog is different but playtime and enrichment are very important in our home so I’ll do what I can to incorporate that in their lives as well! Same with cats, depending on comfortability!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attentiveness, patience, and genuine care I bring to every pet I work with. I don’t just “watch” pets — I learn their routines, quirks, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I have extensive experience with small and senior dogs, including my own 12-year-old mini poodle, so I’m very comfortable with gentle handling, medication routines, mobility support, and calming anxious pups. I understand that older dogs and shy pets need a slower pace, consistency, and lots of reassurance — and that’s exactly what I provide. I’m also reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in calm, capable hands. Whether your dog is playful, timid, energetic, or just wants to nap next to someone kind, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel right at home. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. 🐾 I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, medication, and potty breaks on a consistent routine. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care, I plan my time so your pet's needs always come first. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so I can provide calm, consistent care. In your home, I follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and double-check doors, gates, and leashes to keep everything secure. In my home, pets are treated like family in a safe, cozy, and supervised environment with plenty of structure, play, rest, and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel confident and connected while you're away.
“Madelynn was amazing with my kitties, and gave them loads of love and attention. She sent great pics & kept me updated the entire time! I felt so much more comfortable with her there. She was warm & friendly, wanting to introduce herself beforehand, and gave some information about herself, which made the whole process that much better!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was little and have always had a huge love for pets. I grew up helping feed, water, and care for animals while making sure they were always happy, safe, and well cared for. I also have my own dog, Charlie Brown, who absolutely loves cuddles and treats, so I understand how important it is to treat every pet like family. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter in my home town where I helped clean kennels, feed animals, spend time playing with them, and help make sure they felt loved while waiting to find their forever homes. I’m passionate about giving pets the attention, comfort, and care they deserve. 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend quality time with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. I’ll make sure your pets get lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care while you’re away. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and feel safe in their environment. I’ll follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, or special care requests to make sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family — with lots of patience, affection, and attention.
“Thank you, Anna for taking care of our Goldens! It was so nice coming home from our trip to happy dogs and clean floors. Our boys get nervous when they are left too long and they were not stressed at all when we returned. Thank you again!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10. Mine have been raised being treated like little humans and I cant wait to treat yours the exact same. I have cared for special needs dogs, puppies, and seniors. I have a special place in my heart for animals, and absolutely understand the want for a sitter that will love on your babies as much as you do! I am currently available almost all day everyday, and most weekends. On the occasion that I have errands to run, I am more than happy to take your love bug with me if they don’t like to stay home alone! I have two fur babies for your pets to hangout with (if he/she does good with other dogs)!One is big, one is small, and they are both inside dogs! We take them outside to play ball through the day and on plenty of walks! I have a fenced yard and walking paths all through my neighborhood! My parents live close, and my dogs love them just as much, so if your pets prefer to be by themselves that’s totally doable!! I’m pretty flexible, so I can give them as much or as little exercise as needed! If you’d prefer me be at your home, that’s perfectly fine as well!
“Zaina was great with my 2 little dogs. They loved her immediately. She was good to let me know how they were doing. She showed a lot of patience to the one who is losing vision and was able to calm him. So thankful! I would definitely use her again!”
“Lily Kay is the best sitter we’ve had since moving here. She keeps us updated and loves on our babies. Our dog has anxiety and warms up to few people. Lily Kay was patient with our baby and now she loves her! 110% recommend!”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lincoln stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
