“Katie is so thoughtful and kind. She managed to get a shy anxious cat to come to her and sniff her. I loved the pics she sent me while I was away. When I'm away again, I'll be rehiring Katie.”
About: I lived with and took care of two dogs for two years with a partner. Both were Bernedoodles; one was an adult and the other was a 9-weeks old puppy when we first got him. In addition, I have fostered a kitten with my sister for 4 months. Some traits I have that make me suitable for pet care are that I am reliable, punctual, and can follow instructions well. I am an orchestral violinist and Oxford academic, so my schedule is flexible and varies week to week. I am typically available for dog walking in the mornings and afternoons, 7 days a week. I offer dog walking services where I travel to the dog's home and walk the dog in their neighborhood, respecting the dog's autonomy by letting them lead the way and choose the route, within safe boundaries.
“Had to use a new dog sitter due to my normal dog sitter being unavailable but oh my god, McKayla is absolutely fantastic. Her communication was perfect, asked more questions than any other dog sitter has (in a good way). I will definitely be using her again. My dog was happy to see her and she was respectful in my house. 1000/10! Amazing”
“Elisa was amazing! Our Golden Retriever usually goes to daycare, but he is recovering from surgery and we needed someone to come to our house. Thank God we found Elisa. She is sweet, kind, and professional. She sent us pictures and updates throughout her visits. We will definitely be booking with her again”
“Ian was great! He provided such great care to our puppy on such short notice. We appreciated his detailed feedback and how attentive he was. He was also easy to get in touch with and very responsive. We highly recommend Ian!”
“The dogs love Alexandra, they are always happy and healthy when we get home. Also somehow our house smelled amazing when we got home, that never happens we have huge boy dogs. No idea how she did that!!!”
About: Dogs are family, and that is how I treat every visit. I have spent 12 years caring for my family dog and now my own, along with regular walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family. I am comfortable with dogs of every size. Millie, the Bernese Mountain Dog in my photos, is my boyfriend's dog and lives at his house, but I walk and care for her often. At over 100 pounds, so I can handle larger dogs who may pull on walls. I am experienced with administering oral medications, managing leash-reactive dogs on walks, and handling standard crate and feeding routines. I keep detailed notes on each pet's needs and quirks, and I always have your vet's information on hand in case of an emergency. You will never have to wonder how your dog is doing, because I am happy to send updates throughout a visit. I am available for early morning visits and again toward the end of the workday and into the evening, which suits pet parents who need care before or after their own workday. Midday visits may be possible with advance notice. I have some weekend availability as well; just message me and we will coordinate. Safety Your pet's safety comes first. Dogs stay leashed and harnessed any time we are outside, including in shared hallways, elevators, and lobbies, since neighbors and other dogs can appear around a corner without warning. I check the weather before every walk and adjust: short routes and shaded paths in the heat, and less time outside in the cold. Before the first visit, I make sure your vet's information, any medications, and other specifics are written down or saved in the Rover app for easy reference. We can go over detailed instructions at the meet and greet or by message beforehand. If anything seems wrong, you will hear from me immediately. Trust I work full time in HR, so confidentiality and the careful handling of sensitive information are things I take seriously. I treat your keys, door codes, and home with that same standard of care. Keys are never labeled with an address or unit number, and they are stored securely in my home when not in use. You will receive photos and an update with every visit. I never bring anyone along, and I never share photos of your pet publicly without asking first. If my plans change, you will hear about it early rather than at the last minute. Environment In your home, I stick to the areas you tell me to use and leave everything as I found it, including lights, doors, and the thermostat. I also pick up after your pet and tidy anything we have used before I leave.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my pet for a few days knowing that Heather would be checking in on him. She shared a daily update and prior to our trip she stopped in to meet our pet and make sure she knew exactly how to best take care of him.”
About: I’ve cared for multiple dogs, including my own senior dog that had passed. Family and friends have trusted me to board their dogs, and I’ve provided feeding, medication when needed, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of care and attention to keep them happy and comfortable. I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday until 4pm. If you are needing to drop off your pup on Friday before 4, my mom would be home to help until I get home. I would only be available in the evenings during the week if needed. I have a fenced backyard where they can play, and food/water bowls to help dogs feel comfortable during their stay. Whether I’m caring for dogs in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have everything they need and receive plenty of attention, care, and are comfortable with me.
“We rely on Heather to take care of our cats anytime we go on vacation. She is amazing as far as taking care of their individual food needs and attention to each cat! Heather communicates every day about each cat and also provides photos of each! I highly recommend Heather for your pet's care!”
“We contacted Catharine with very short notice to meet and care for our dogs. She was willing to come and help us without hesitation. Our dogs were happy and cared for after each visit. Catharine was very communicable and easy to chat with to square away details. We look forward to using her again in the future.”
“Stephanie was great. We had a family emergency right before we left and were a little disorganized with instructions. Stefanie managed everything beautifully and took good care of Charlie.”
“I have used Simone for drop in visits for our 1yr old Bernedooble several times over the past 1-2 months. Simone is always responsive, attentive and she communicates well, prior to, during and after the assignment. Our dog is excited to see her and we know he is in good hands with Simone on duty!”
“Roxxie was great with my pups, she was very prompt and sent lots of pictures on their walks and playtime. My oldest and hardest dog was great and was excited to see her every visit. Last minute we had to add some drop in visits and Roxxie was willing and able to work this out for us. We will be using Roxxie for all our other trips.”
“Tricia was fantastic! She took exceptional care of our fur babies while we were out of town. She administered medicine for our elderly German Shepherd and is great with pets that require special care. We are really grateful to have someone dependable, like Tricia, to watch them. We will definitely be repeat customers.”
“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs, including our senior dog who needs a gentler approach. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We’re extremely happy with her service and would absolutely trust her with our pups again! We highly recommend Lauren!”
“Suzanne exceeded every expectation when caring for our dog. She treats our girl just like her own dog and goes out of her way to make sure that Harper’s needs are met and she is cared for as if she were her own dog! We highly recommend Suzanne to assist in any pet care needs you may have!”

Nick was a great pet sitter. We used her services for drop-in visits to walk and feed our high-energy mini golden doodle. Nick has animals of her own and was not fazed by our dog’s energetic antics. I appreciated her communication efforts and received multiple photos and videos to assure me our dog was doing well. I would highly recommend her services to any other pet owners looking for someone reliable who truly loves animals.
Emily is a true professional and provided an excellent customer experience for our pups and for us - we had no worries while we were away and the pups immediately connected with Emily and enjoyed her company. We highly recommend Emily for pet care services and appreciate her!

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.
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 Line Lexington 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. 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 .

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 Meet & Greet .
