About: Responsible, kind and caring. I've cared for my own animals for the past 50 years. I've had, horses, goats, chickens, pigs, dogs and cats. I have experience in wound care and medications including injections for diabetes. I currently work a full time job and want to be available to my friends and neighbors in Linden. This is due to my search for a caregiver and not finding one in Linden. My preference is to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, although having a dog come home with me will work as well.

“It was my first time using Roover and i was a bit concerned but when i had the meet and greet with Rosaura i knew my furbabies would be in good hands. She was great at following the directions and was patient with my dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including large and high-energy breeds. As a dog owner, I’m very comfortable with routines, walks, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel safe and happy. I currently have an open and flexible schedule, so I’m available most days and times for pet care. I plan my day around feeding, walks, and giving pets consistent attention and care. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment with consistent routines, supervision, and lots of attention. I always follow owner instructions closely to ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free.

About: I have taken care of many dogs in my life to raising puppy’s to full growth elder dogs. I have two dogs of my own. French bulldogs and they can be a challenge but I’m always up for a challenge. I love going on walks with them and love teaching them new tricks. I am a college student who goes to school 3 times a week but schedule will be changing but any day I am off I am willing to be with animals to love and care for them I have a full fenced backyard, I make sure that when the pets outside I am outside with them and when they are in the house I make sure there are no choking hazards lying around. And when walking outside that their leash is properly secured

About: Since I was old enough to walk, animals have been a loving part of my life. Growing up in a household where pets were treated as family, taught me that every dog and cat has a unique personality and set of needs. I am particularly skilled at reinforcing consistent routines. If you are working on leash training or basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay,' I make sure to incorporate those into our walks so your progress doesn't stall while you're at work. I am also experienced with senior care, understanding that sometimes a 'walk' is more about a slow sniff-around-the-block and some gentle companionship than a fast-paced walk. My professional life is uniquely flexible, which allows me to be the reliable 'midday anchor' for your pet’s day. I have dedicated my Wednesday through Sunday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, specifically to pet care. This means I am available during the most high-demand hours—when you’re stuck in back-to-back meetings or enjoying a weekend afternoon away. Because I don't juggle a rigid 9-to-5 office job, I can offer consistent arrival windows and the focused attention your pet deserves without rushing to the next appointment. I will treat your home with the same level of respect I’d want for my own. My process is thorough: I double-check that all doors are deadbolted, alarm systems are set, and water bowls are topped off before I leave. To keep you in the loop, I provide detailed Rover Cards after every visit. You’ll receive photos of our adventures, a map of our walk, and a summary of all 'business' handled. If a mess occurred while you were away, I handle the clean-up discreetly and thoroughly so you can come home to a fresh house and a happy, relaxed pet.
About: Though I am not well versed in special needs dogs, ones with anxiety I know far to well as my Bella suffers daily. Constant love and affection would be given to ensure your fur babies feel right at home as if you’ve never left. Hello I’m Melissa a newly FT stay at home mom of 2. I homeschool during the morning and have fun by mid afternoon so adding some visitors to my day would be my pleasure! Both my Bombay cat and Deer Chihuahua were rescued. I work with many rescues in the surrounding areas to make sure all strays brought home find their forever homes. I do live in a rental so I do request that they are potty trained! Both my cat and dog are fully house broke and getting up in the night for those midnight tinkle breaks are possible since my dog is a senior and needs to go too. I hope that gives you a little insight to my life and allows you to be comfortable in choosing me as your fur babies mini vaca destination. I have a fully fenced decent size back yard with cameras for lots of room to run and get their wiggles out or just explore and sunbathe. I have a large crate if they prefer some quiet time alone just request you bring their favorite bed or blanket so they have a piece of home to comfort them.

About: Hi! My name is Mitzi, and I’m 24 years old. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for more than half of it, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I currently have two spayed Shih Tzus and a friendly Doberman, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. My dogs do great around other dogs, and I’ve also cared for family members’ and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can fully trust with your fur baby. I have experience with both long-haired and short-haired dogs, and I genuinely love everything that comes with caring for them. Whether it’s daily walks, potty breaks, feeding on a regular schedule, keeping up with grooming and appointments, or just giving them love and attention, I make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Dogs are honestly my way of de-stressing, and spending time with them is something I truly enjoy. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to make them feel loved while you’re away. I am in nursing school, so i can either come during online classes or after in person class! My schedule is also open part time I live in a spacious household, my house is fenced front and back! I can also crate train your dog in your home or mine
About: I have always had a dog pretty much all of my adult life. I have raised multiple dogs of all sizes from puppy hood,potty trining and teaching obedience. I can provide reliable, loving dog-sitting that keeps your pup happy,comfortable, and cared for. I am the family pet sitter and now I'm here to treat yours like family. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to give my doggie and yours all the attention and treats they need! I go on several walks throught out my day! I have a large fenced yard with grass. I am also comfortble to crate your dog if that feels safer to them. There is always fresh water available and dogs sleep indoors, in a warm,cozy space during the winter and a cool well ventilated area in the summer. My dog is very friendly and loves making new friends, so your pup will feel welcomed from day one.

“It’s never easy finding great care for your fur babies, unless it’s Brooke! Had to find care in a slight pinch and Brooke saved the weekend and also made sure my dog and cat were in great hands. She made sure to send updates with pictures and felt that was above and beyond of expectations. And also thankful for her attention to detail. Great job, great care, and such a positive experience for Soja and Man-man. Would 100% book again and highly recommend if I or others ever need someone to care for their pets! You rock 🤘🏾”


About: For the past four years, I have raised and cared for chickens, lambs, and goats for our county fair. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning pens, changing water, and walking and training each animal one to two times daily. I always made sure to dedicate consistent, quality time to properly train and care for each of my animals. While these are not the specific types of animals I would be caring for in this position, I believe this experience reflects my strong work ethic, responsibility, and ability to care for animals of all sizes and needs. In addition to my fair experience, I have had animals my entire life. Currently, I have three dogs and ten chickens at home, and I am responsible for their daily care, including feeding, cleaning, and overall needs. My oldest dog is 15 years old, and I have been primarily responsible for his care for the past seven years. Most of my experience is with small dogs under 20 pounds, but I have also walked and cared for larger dogs weighing around 100 pounds. Additionally I have been a prominent member of Tokay FFA’s Veterinary science team, on this team I’ve learned dozens of minor medical procedures that I am confident in doing such as administration of various medications via oral, aural, and injections, bandage wrapping and removal, and the concept of safe handling with all kinds of animals. I am well versed in many species of animals, ages, and sizes so I hope to be a good fit for your beloved pets. I am currently on summer break and will be attending college this coming fall, as of right now my schedule is fairly open. T is a few days where my hours may change, but overall I am available at all times of day every day to fit your needs. Times are subject to change and if I ever have a conflict I will be sure to notify you with proper prior notice to ensure your pets are taken care of. If there is fences at your home I will always be sure to lock and close them behind me if your pets are inside, I am also well versed in handling larger dogs/animals so I will not easily be pushed to the side if your pet is prone to doing so. I am confident in my animal handling skills and if your dog needs to be fenced in or crated I am confident I can do so.

About: I have over 10 years of experience in pet boarding and looking after the pets of my friends and family. I have assisted in training puppies as well as adult dogs, so I am more than happy to assist in training your animals while you're away by keeping up a specific schedule or regimen. I also have personal experience caring for elderly dogs as well as dogs with anxiety disorders, happy to work with them in any special ways needed.

“Andrea did a great job pet sitting for our cat Mickey! We were out of the country for several days for a family wedding. She sent me daily messages letting me know he was fed and all was well. When we got home, the kitchen counter where his food was prepared was clean and neat and so was Mickey's eating area in the garage. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was well cared for while we were gone. We wouldn't hesitate at all to utilize Andrea's pet sitting services again. She was terrific!!😊”

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.

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.
