About: I have always had pets in my life, dogs, cats, gerbils, snakes, turtles, fish... I am very comfortable with everything I've come across so far. I recently retired, and am looking for ways to help others, while doing something I enjoy. My daily calendar fluctuates, but with enough notice, I should be able to meet your schedule. I am very respectful of your home and property, and will do my utmost to follow your instructions to keep your loved-one(s) safe and well cared for.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, crate training, reinforcing routines, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I know that every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine so they feel happy and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll treat them like one of my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing dependable care, regular updates, and lots of love for your furry family member. I am available for drop in visits or walks on Saturday and Sundays. Unfortunately my work schedule Mon-Fri doesn’t provide me availability to provide service during the week days. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I will follow their normal feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions you provide. Pets in my care will receive plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and cared for.
“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 ❤”
“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.”
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.
“From our meet & greet, we knew instantly Broderick was a real one. Broderick provided such excellent care to our cat while we were away. His Rover Cards were hilarious and informative. He was very in tune with vibing out how Pollo was feeling and would tailor his visits to his needs and mood. It was amazing to see a new friendship form via the update photos. I would highly co-sign Broderick as your next pet sitter!”
“Caitlin is awesome! She did multiple drop in visits for my dog for a few days and she was always on time, gave great updates, and was just super nice to communicate and coordinate with. We did a meet and greet before the drop in visits and she really took the time to get to know my dog and her needs. I can’t wait to book her again!”
About: I’ve cared for many dogs in my neighborhood and for family friends since I was 12. I have a lot of experience with small and large dogs. I enjoy walking them and playing with them.

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 college courses 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.
“We had a wonderful experience with Ariel watching our dogs while we were out of state . She provided daily updates, which gave us great peace of mind, and it was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was attentive, reliable, and treated our dogs like they were her own. We came home to happy pups and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

Bathe and brush(if necessary), playtimes as well as training procedures (if applicable) Pet sitting/House sitting. Your pets will be in great hands!

“Katie was amazing while we were out of the country for a week. She is attentive to detail and great at keeping good communication with us. Our kitties felt comfortable with her from day one. We would definitely recommend Katie.”
“I didn't get a chance to meet Matt prior to booking him but he was very flexible and was able to jump in. He knew my dog from when Crispin was at MLAR and they were able to get on well. I got lots of pictures and could see my dog was happy and healthy. I won't hesitate to book him again. Thanks for helping this weekend, Matt! I appreciate it.”

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!

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. 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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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.
