“Brendan was great with our 2 dogs. The dogs seemed to like him and the pictures proved that. He took his time with each dog individually which was nice for the dogs to get their own attention. Thank you for respecting our home and taking care of our fur-babies! We are definitely keeping Brendan in our favorites.”
“We’ve had Jeff take care of our dog Jack many times now. He is a fantastic sitter, always takes great care of Jack, takes him on long walks, and treats him as family. Cannot recommend him more strongly, you will love him!”
About: Ever since my parents let me get a dog I’ve been a dog lover ever since! I’m excited to be that friendly face that pets need. I just got a cat of my own and love her to death- so I’m a new cat lover! I’m reliable and willing to do what you need for your pet :) I’m a nurse so I work 3 shifts a week! On my off days I like to workout and go for walks so it’s the perfect opportunity to take your dog out for a walk or do a drop-in visit In my own home I have two doodles and I’ve grown to love them and their personalities. When friends or family would go out of town I am easily availble to walk, feed, and care for a dog. I follow instructions well and I’m easy to get along with and trust!
“We had Monica let our dog out a couple times while we were gone for an overnight. She was great! We didn't have a chance to meet before hand as it was a last minute request but I was able to leave a key and instructions. She was great with our dog, filled his food and water, let him out, took him for a little walk, and even sent us a photo/updates. Would definitely recommend her if you need someone to care for your dog!”
About: I have experience with dogs of several breeds and sizes. I have two girl dogs, a sheepadoodle and chocolate lab, and I’ve taken care of them since they were puppies. My girls fill my days up with so much happiness and I will love yours like my own! I’m available most weekdays after 3 PM and on weekends. I offer evening walks or drop-in visits until 8:30 PM. Whether your pet needs some extra exercise, playtime, or just a little company, I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for. I can walk your dog around your neighborhood or to a nearby park, play with them in your house or yard, or whatever you prefer! I will give them lots of love and treats (if approved by you). I can crate them when I leave if needed. I have experience walking two dogs at once using harnesses and gentle leaders.
“Ashley & Trinity are reliable and super communicative. They were very proactive when one of our cat litter box (automatic) stopped working. We are very thankful to have such reliable cat sitters like thyme that care to do a good job but that you can honestly feel they care for our kitties. They love them.”
“Maureen is great! Our cat was just diagnosed with diabetes and Maureen has been so flexible with dates as we navigate this insulin injection with things already on our calendar. We'll keep using her services whenever we need to.”
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life! From pet sitting, to owning my own, I take great pride in caring for all animals. I hope to care for yours soon! I just moved to the area and am self-employed. With that flexibility being on Rover is a great way for me to fill up my day and help my fellow pet lovers! My dogs (Archie and Cooper) are my babies, we prioritize their exercise, mental stimulation and lots and lots of love. I will adhere to the rules any owner might have but always come in to your home heart first!
About: I grew up on a dairy farm and have always had cats and dogs around. My kids are excited to learn some responsibility through animal care along with my supervision and spend time with dogs. Recently retired from corporate world and children expressed interest in dog walking/boarding. Good opportunity to walk and teach children lessons in pet care while spending time bonding with dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard in addition to a bonus room that the animal would stay in while boarded. My children and I would show a lot of care and attention to your pet.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large dogs. Throughout the years I’ve been responsible for walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for family pets, including watching them for multiple days while family members were away on vacation. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and will emphasize building trust with both pets and their owners. I currently work part-time in the evenings, which allows me to offer flexible daytime care for your pets. I’m generally available until 5:00 PM for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog needs exercise, a potty break, or simply someone to spend time with them during the day, I’m happy to help. I enjoy being active and love having a companion by my side on walks. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I am attentive, responsible, and committed to following any instructions you provide regarding your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, or special needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and enjoyable experience while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.
“Maddie has been extremely flexible working with door issues in my building, and is quick to respond! She sends lots of cute pictures and videos, and I know my cat’s health and happiness is her first priority! I would definitely recommend her and would certainly book her again!”
About: Hello! I never had any pets growing up, but always really wanted a dog. I love to travel a lot, so its not the right time for one of my own now, but would love to spend time with yours. I love being active and being outdoors and would enjoy getting outside with your dog. I have experience checking on dogs throughout the day and taking them on walks for friends and family. I’d love the chance to give your dog some extra attention and help make your life a little easier! Let me know if you have any questions. I’m very easy going and hope you’ll consider letting me spend some time with your beloved family member. I look forward to hearing from you! I work as a pediatric nurse Monday-Wednesday during normal business hours. I am open for house sitting any time, as long as you understand I will be gone during the day. I can also do walks and drop ins on Thursdays and fridays I see pets as your family members and will treat them the same way I would treat your children. I will work hard to make sure they are comfortable and getting all of their needs met, and will work with you to determine what exactly those needs are.
“Taylor was great as always with our cats!! We love the photos she sends and how well she follows our instructions! It was so nice to have peace of mind over the holidays that our babies were in good hands!!”
“We usually use a family member to take care of our cats. Due to a scheduling conflict we needed outside help. Sara did a great job! She was great at sending several photos of my happy cats. Sara was even able to see and get a photo of my super scared cat (Odie) that no ever sees, that just doesn't happen. We asked Sara to stay for an hour to love on them so they would not feel so abandoned. She did just that and we have pictures showing how our needy/affectionate cat (Loki) just crawled all over her. The area around the food and water bowl was left clean and tidy. The liter box was cleaned regularly. Thank you for attention to detail. If they could talk I am sure they would ask for Sara again by name.”
About: I have had pets, mainly dogs, my entire life and I have a true love for animals. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for over 6 years. I have recently joined the Rover community and I am excited for this new experience! I do work a part-time job so my availability often differs by the day but I still have plenty of time for pet care! The earlier I am requested and care is planned out, the better I will be able to adjust my schedule to your needs! I have plenty of experience caring for pets, majority dogs, in their own home and my goal is always to make them feel comfortable in their space! My availability for caring for pets in my home is more limited but I do have a fenced yard and two dogs(one small and one medium) that are both friendly with other dogs and able to be crated if necessary!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Madeira
Kylie watched our two dogs for a long weekend and was great! She took them for walks, made sure they had fresh water and food at dinner time, sent us updates throughout the visits, and was so easy to work with! I would recommend Kylie to anyone looking for help with their animals. You can tell she really cares and is someone we will definitely book with again in the future.
We are so grateful for the exceptional care Lindsay provided, especially during a stressful time when our dog became ill. She went above and beyond to monitor him, keep us updated and make sure he was cared for and comfortable while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during a difficult situation. I would highly recommend Lindsay to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.
so so thankful ! ashley and trinity took care of our senior pup and year old pup so well. they checked in right on time , followed all care instructions , and made sure to love on the fur babies while we were out of town. would absolutely recommended and rehire for care when we need it !
Mark was outstanding with my dog. He was punctual, attentive, and clearly loves animals. I appreciated his clear communication, quick updates, and the thoughtful care he provided, from long walks to gentle playtime. My pup was happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Mark for reliable, compassionate pet care. And even turning off your oven for you when you forget to turn it off like me.
Five Star Pet Sitter‼️Kylie did a great job the first time she took care of my two dogs and so I asked her to help out again. She is Super responsible and a true animal lover! She goes the extra mile and has a wonderful attitude. I highly recommend Kylie- and so do my dogs! ☺️

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 Madeira 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 Madeira 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. 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.
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 Madeira with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Madeira. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
