“Makinzie was amazing!! She was able to help us last minute which was extremely helpful. She sent lots of photos and her communication was great. She even went out of her way to clean up after our dogs and bring a package in for us. Definitely will be using her again!”
“Natalie did everything that was asked of her and went over and above to take extra care of our very shy and fearful of strangers cat. I would highly recommend Natalie for any pet care services for anyone who may be interested in that.”
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!
“Alyssa was great! We are new to the area so we don't have family who can come check on our dogs. Alyssa left detailed message updates and even took pictures of our cat for us who she wasn't even there to watch ❤”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life. I’ve had dogs and cats growing up and now own a dog myself. I have many years of experience taking care of animals. Pet care is apart of my everyday life. I have my own dog so she fits into my schedule before and after work and on the weekends! When caring for pets during drop in visits, I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and secure while you’re not there. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and the care they need during each visit. For dogs, I offer walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and a little playtime. I am also comfortable administering medications. I love keeping pet parents updated, so I provide photos and messages after visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide reliable, loving care whenever you can’t be there.
“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”
About: As a college student with several years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs through personal pet ownership, animal shelter volunteering, and Rover pet sitting. I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while making sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m a college student, so my schedule is flexible, especially during the summer. I make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and care they need, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I always follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or lots of attention, I’ll care for your pet the same way I would my own. I’ll also keep your home clean, respect your space, and send regular photo updates.
“Sabrina is a gem. Rocky immediately loved her. She's incredibly sweet and knowledgeable about animals. Clear communication, she asked the right questions during the meet and greet, and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our boy. We will definitely look to her for any future dog sitting needs. 💯 Recommend.”
About: I love all pets! I have taken care of anything from a 130 pound dog to a crested gecko and tarantula, any pet you have I would love to meet. I know leaving home is hard and I understand how important pets are. Your pets are family, so my job is to keep them in the same safe and loving environment that you give them each day. I have been around animals since I was a kid so I am experienced with administering medication through injections, pills, and topical creams. I have also cared for pets with special needs and dogs who experience seizures, so I have the knowledge to handle those types of situations too. I will be taking 2 in person college courses (one each weekday) starting in the fall 2026, so I have the time to be with your pet(s). I’m comfortable working weekends and weekdays so that they always have a friend like me around. I like to keep an honest schedule here on Rover so if a last minute thing needs your attention my availability is up to date! First and foremost I want to keep your pets comfortable in their own home. I believe it is super important to let all animals get to know me at their own pace because their comfort comes first. For me to make your transition home as easy as possible, I like to maintain the same routine for them that you set up. And last but certainly not least I understand that this is your home along your pet(s), I uphold the respect and privacy that should always been seen when being in someone else's space.
About: I am a teacher looking for a little extra cash. I have had several dogs and cats throughout the years. I currently have a high-needs dog with daily medications. I have foundational experience in dog training and am trusted by neighbors and friends to look in on their pets. My schedule often changes as I am an itinerant teacher, but I am willing to see if I am able to work with you to fit your needs. I will adhere to client’s directions and will send regular updates ensuring they know their pet is well cared for. I will provide you with peace of mind!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from playful puppies to delicate seniors. I'm dedicated to ensuring your pet feels happy and safe, and I keep in close communication with pet parents so you always know your pet is being well-cared for. As a fully remote worker, I have the flexibility to manage my meeting schedule, allowing me to allocate dedicated blocks of time for pet care. I keep my calendar meticulously up-to-date, ensuring that you can rely on the availability shown. I like to get to know each dog I care for and tailor activities based on their personality and needs. For active dogs we may play fetch and go for long walks. On bad weather days, I engage them with brain games, play tug of war, or offer a bone to keep them entertained and mentally stimulated. My goal is to ensure each pet feels happy, comfortable, and well-cared for, whether they're at my home or in their own.
“Pam watched our dog during the holidays with a last minute booking. She was accommodating of our schedule and requests. She spoiled our dog like she was her own, and our dog just loved the time spent with her. We will be using her again in the future. Pam was a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her to others!”
“Briana was very quick to respond to my request, considering it was within 5 days for the first walk/feed. She came over for a meet and greet and asked pertinent questions, which showed her experience. Briana was on time, did everything that we asked and more. I am looking forward to using her services again. Thank you!”

Tim is an absolute delight. Flexible and easy to work with. I was impressed at the meet and greet that he was completely unfazed when my little dogs were snarly and scared. He was so good with them and they both warmed up to him quickly. Having had other bad sitter experiences, I felt so at ease during my trip knowing that we had someone reliable giving our two dogs and two cats lots of love and attention. Can’t recommend him enough. He’ll take great care of your babies.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Linfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Linfield 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 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 Linfield 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.
