About: Growing up, my family always had animals around. I have five brothers and sisters and we all had pets, from dogs to cows to fish. Now as an adult, I would love to care for your pets for you. I’m not afraid of loud messy big dogs but I can be very gentle with shy sweet kitties and puppies. I’m very patient and I have done extensive research on how a dog’s brain works. I can’t wait to take your pet on an adventure or maybe just a leisurely stroll! I’m a stay-at-home-wife so I have lots of free time to dedicate to your furry friend. I try to keep Sundays low-key but the rest of my week is wide-open! I have a sweet small dog and a silly cat who loves dogs but can easily defend herself and hide. I have a big backyard for your pets to play in, but don’t worry, I will never leave them unsupervised.
“Kherris did an excellent job with my fur baby. She was also very respectful of my home. I would not only use her again but I would also recommend her as a sitter. Thank you again, Kherris🙂”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover since childhood. My beloved companion has been with me for almost eight years now, and she’s my entire world. I care for all pets, whether it’s a cat, a dog as if they were my own. I’m always eager to learn and expand my knowledge to better understand and assist others in any way I can. I have a part time job however that doesn’t interfere with making sure my own fur babies are taken care of. In the morning I make sure the are let out and feed and at night they are feed and tucked in for bed. I have a fenced in yard and a big yard. However one of my dogs is reactive and get very protective over her space and things.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how much care and attention Bethaney gives to animals. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s such a relief knowing we can leave our pet in such capable and caring hands with Bethaney. We would highly recommend Bethaney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“LaShannah was thorough and diligent with the directions that we left for our dog. We had never used the Rover app before so we were nervous and concerned. However, she quickly put us at ease with her clear and frequent communication, photos and videos, and kind words about our dog. If you are looking for someone who is responsible, caring and dependable, LaShannah is the sitter for you!”
“Josh has been absolutely amazing in sitting for Lollie. She is generally bot a huge fan of men, but she just adores Josh!! He has visited a couple of times while we are there and Lollie is over the moon for him - she wags her tail so hard I think she might throw her hip out - lol. I would recommend Josh to anyone who needs a pet sitter - he loves Lollie and she loves him back - we are grateful to have him.”
“We would Recommend Jannah over and over. She has always been hyper vigilant about the safety of our pups in the heat… she truly cares about the pups !!! As always thanks Jannah !!!”
About: From dogs to lizards, I’ve cared for animals of all kinds. Whether your pet has fur, feathers, or scales, I treat them like family. I’m trained in pet CPR, including for small exotics like leopard geckos, and I’m prepared to do everything I can to keep your pet safe in an emergency. I also have a year of experience caring for livestock and sanctuary animals, plus 10 years of babysitting experience, so providing dependable, compassionate care comes naturally. I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible. Whether they thrive on early morning walks, afternoon playtime, evening cuddles, or a strict medication schedule, I’ll work around their needs. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my highest priorities. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, livestock, senior pets, bottle babies, and animals with special needs. I’m trained in pet CPR, comfortable administering medications when needed, and committed to creating a calm, low-stress environment where every pet feels secure. I also treat every home with respect, leaving it as clean as I found it and caring for your pets as if they were my own.

“Kayla communicated thoroughly and provided excellent care to my two senior dogs. She rolled with the punches when there were accidents and kept me informed. We will definitely be booking with Kayla again in the future.”
About: I’ve always had a love for dogs since I was little. From volunteering at animal shelters to just washing and walking the dogs in my community I have always been surrounded by the adorable balls of fluff. Having 11 years of experience I can ensure you that having me as your dog walker/sitter is leaving your dog in good hands! I am usually available anytime from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM, but I have a pretty flexible schedule and am able to work around your schedule. I have a completely closed back fence to ensure safety, many many toys and treats to entertain your fur babies, and of course cute leashes

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 Locust Grove 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.

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.
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.
