About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've gained hands-on experience in several areas of animal care, including professional dog grooming, horse care and handling, and veterinary care. Working with animals in these different environments has taught me patience, confidence, and how to adapt to each animal's unique personality and needs. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs, as well as large animals like horses. I'm comfortable recognizing stress signals, handling nervous or anxious animals, maintaining routines, administering basic care as instructed by owners, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I know every pet is a member of the family, and I treat them that way. Whether we're going for a walk, playing in the yard, keeping them company during a drop-in visit, or simply providing a calm and reassuring presence while you're away, my goal is to make sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and cared for just as you would care for them yourself. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, weekend, and holiday requests whenever possible. I understand that every pet has a unique routine, and I'll work with you to maintain their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and companionship. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and prompt responses while your pet is in my care. My goal is to provide reliable, stress-free care that gives both you and your pet peace of mind. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. With experience in professional dog grooming, horse care, and veterinary settings, I'm comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, reducing stress, and handling pets with patience and compassion. I believe every pet deserves to be treated like a member of the family. I'll follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. Building trust with each animal is important to me, and I always let them become comfortable at their own pace. I also believe communication builds trust with pet parents. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the same level of care I'd want for my own animals.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 86 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Louisa. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Louisa 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
