“Grace was super caring and patient with our two girls while we were away! Keeping up with 3 check-ins a day is not easy, but she made sure the pups got some free time. Definitely would recommend!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, beginning with early exposure to veterinary clinics where I spent time shadowing and learning animal handling and care from a young age. This foundation grew into professional veterinary technician experience, where I worked with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including senior pets, puppies, and animals requiring daily medications or specialized care. In addition to my veterinary background, I volunteered with a service dog organization where I raised and trained future guide dogs. This experience strengthened my skills in leash training, socialization, crate training, and positive reinforcement methods while working with high-expectation working dogs in real-world environments. I also actively continue dog training as a personal passion and have earned three AKC Trick Dog titles with my own dog. Because of this, I’m very comfortable working with energetic dogs, reinforcing basic obedience, and providing structured enrichment during walks and visits. I currently share my home with two dogs and a cat, so I understand day-to-day pet care, multi-pet dynamics, and the importance of consistency and routine. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and attentive care whether that means a structured walk, a drop-in visit, medication administration, or simply making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I structure my day around consistency and flexibility. I am able to accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits, as well as regular walking schedules and drop-in care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can prioritize pet care visits and ensure pets receive attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship on time. I’m used to building my day around routines, whether that’s scheduled walks, feeding times, or medication needs. I value clear communication and reliability, and I make it a priority to be punctual and consistent with every visit so pets feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific care needs. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive attention, fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and any required medication. I also take time to provide companionship and help pets feel calm and comfortable before leaving. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match the dog’s energy level and needs. I pay close attention to leash manners, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level to ensure a positive experience. I always treat each home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide updates so owners feel informed and confident while they are away.
About: Hello, my name is MehLayne (pronounced Mel-uh-nee) and I can not wait to take care of your fur baby! My senior chihuahua BB passed in June 2026 but she lived a happy life to age 23 🤗. I have taken care of a variety of pets since I was a young child and loved each and every one of them. The animals have ranged from a caterpillar turned butterfly, fish, a frog, cats, dogs, and even a squirrel. I would like to show that same care to your fur babies as well! This job will be my main focus so I can provide the most efficient and flexible service that I can. I am able to drive so I can get to you as soon as you need me! Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you and God bless 🙌 ❤️ SIDE NOTE FOR MY REGULARS: If there is ever any weird pricing issues PLEASE let me know ahead of time and I will adjust or fix anything you need me to! I currently take care of a pet so I tend to all needs daily and can be active with them no matter the weather or time of day. I will play with them using all of their favorite toys and make great use of the backyard or play area/room for them and make them feel right at home.
“Irma did a great job taking care of the boys. It had also been a while since they met her so she made sure to come over to the house a few days before to re-introduce herself to them which I appreciated. She was great at communicating with me on her arrival and sending pics!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have experience with mediation management and administration and am comfortable caring for medically complex or senior pets :) I work full time but do work from home about 75% of the time at least so I am home most of the day to care for your pets! I have two friendly dogs and two dog-savvy cats who get along with everyone! I can easily crate or separate animals into separate spaces in my home if the need arises
About: I am a dog lover. I have a dog of my own! I love taking care of dogs and I am very familiar with how to take care of them! Hi! I play soccer in Spartanburg, SC. I am looking to pet sit and dog walk in between my practices and school work. I respond quickly and am flexible! I am very respectful of the areas I’m in. I always leave places cleaner than I left them. I just want to make sure the animals feel loved and safe!
“James was excellent! He helped us last minute and jumped right in. My dogs love him. He sent pictures of them throughout the week and made sure to let us know how they were doing. Definitely plan to book again and would recommend to friends/family!!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand that every dog has their own routine, quirks, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs! Whether that means a long walk, playing, or simply giving them some company and attention. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday from 7 AM–3 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I also have weekend availability, so feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! I have one friendly, crate trained and house trained dog who gets along well with other animals, as well as two cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you know how your pet is doing.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lyman 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 Lyman 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 Lyman 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.
