“We are glad Annie was able to come and let our dogs out again since they already know and like her. In addition to being a dog whisperer, she must have some sway over Mother Nature too b/c it rained all day today but stopped right before her two visits. Thank you for taking such good care of our fur babies!”
“Trinity took this job last second over the Holliday. She took great care of our dogs and would let us know if anything happened. Seeing the pics daily I could tell how much our dogs enjoyed having her there to watch them and spend time with them.”
“Alex has been nothing but great so far. She is very communicative about her availability and her visits. Xavia LOVES her and they have gotten along since the initial visit. She is very gentle and very nice. So glad I found her on here! She has been a HUGE help!”
“Melissa was a great dog sitter! I didn’t have to give her many instructions, yet she went above and beyond to care for my dog. She communicated well and sent many pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have grown up around a variety of animals and have been a trusted caretaker for 3 years now! I have experience with reptiles, aquatic life, dogs, cats, small furry friends, and birds. I would love to help in any way I can! I currently have very open availability and can offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m able to adjust my schedule as needed and provide consistent, attentive care. I’m really big on making sure my pets are happy, comfortable, and taken care of. I keep them on a consistent feeding schedule, always make sure they have fresh water, and stay on top of cleaning their litter boxes regularly. They have lots of toys, cat trees, and little things to keep them entertained, and I love giving them attention and spending time with them. I’m very attentive to their routines and needs, and I treat them like my babies.
“Rebecca did a great job taking care of our cat Finely via drop in visits! She made sure he got some play time and followed our feeding and litter directions perfectly. We recommend her services and will be using her again to care for our cat.”
“Robbie did amazing watching our dog Beaux! He followed our dogs routine while we were out of town and communicated with us daily with picture updates. Will definitely be using his services again!”
About: Growing up with a farming family, I always wanted a dog, but dogs were not allowed in the house as pets. So 4 hamsters, a chinchilla, and countless fish later, I decided to volunteer at my local shelter to be around dogs all day, and 3 years ago I finally adopted my first! She was a nervous wreck in the beginning, but with lots of love and patience, she's morphed into the neighborhood sweetheart. I look forward to extending that same love and patience to your furbabies as well! I currently freelance remotely so I'm home often with a flexible, yet ever-changing schedule. That said, I'm available for one-time or pre-scheduled recurring visits on weekdays. I live in a safe neighborhood with a dog park. However, I do not currently offer dog sitting in my home. But I am highly organized and clean, so I will treat your home with the same respect that I would my own. My car is also equipped with dog seat belts and blankets for trips to the park if requested.
About: I have lived with 6 different cats and 3 different dogs in my life growing up. My mother was also a dog walker for years.

I always look forward to getting to work with new people and meeting new furry friends! I am a nursing student in Belmont, NC August-May and apart of the acrobatics and tumbling team at my college as well. While I am home in Bloomington, IL during the summers I work in the evenings coaching gymnastics and during the day I work part-time as a CNA. At home I love to play outside with my dogs, and I go on runs and walks often with them. When I am with other families dogs I respect all of their wishes regarding their home and their pets, and love to spend time getting to know what each dog needs: cuddles, playing, inside or outside time, etc.

I have a collection of dog toys and keep food and treats stocked in-home. If pet parents allow, I will let their dog play with my family's dogs, daily walks around the neighborhood or local parks and a comfortable environment. These also apply for house visits and any activity or request made by pet parents will be followed.

Thanks to Kendall for taking good care of my Vizsla for drop in visits at my home. I appreciate the timely communication and even our meet and greet was fun. Princess seemed quite happy when I got back home after 3 days . I would use Kendall over again for petsitting needs, she is awesome!
I have never let anyone watch my dog outside of people close to me. It took a lot for me to decide to book someone to help with Kota. While a bit timid at first Kota definitely has warmed up to Leighanne and I thank her for her patience with him since he’s not the easiest dog to get accustomed to. I would definitely book her again.

- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

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 Lowell 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.

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 .
