“Gabby did GREAT handling my two big babies! They loved her and I had no issues. I will for sure be rebooking Gabby when I need help in the future. Thanks again!”
“I had the absolute pleasure of having Mikaela stop by and care for my cats while my husband and I were away, and I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about the experience! She spent quality time with them, made sure their food and water were taken care of, gave them plenty of attention and cuddles, and kept me updated on how they were doing. When we arrived home late that evening, it was obvious how happy, relaxed, and well cared for they had been. Knowing they were in such great hands made all the difference and allowed us to enjoy our trip worry free. I will absolutely be booking with Mikaela again!”
About: I grew up with many cats and dogs but currently I have one dog and two cats! My pets are my world and I don't know what I would do without them. I have had three kittens that I found in my old neighborhood and took care of them until we found them an owner. I have pet sat for family and friends and love spending time with their babies. I had a dog growing up that had gotten older and needed extra care like medications and help with mobility so he stayed with me for a few weeks as I took care of him. I understand how important our fur babies are so I promise to treat yours as my own with plenty of love and attention! <3 I am currently changing my career goals so my schedule is wide open! I am available weekdays and weekends, and have a flexible schedule. I live at home with my parents so I have family members to take care of my pets while I am looking after yours! At home I live with 5 family members and three pets without a fenced in yard so it is ideal to work in your environment, but I do own a medium sized dog crate if you require one. My dog is an anxious girl so she likes to stay inside with her humans but we take her on walks and try to take her to dog parks to socialize. If I am working in your home I can accommodate to as many needs as you like! Whether you like a strict schedule, your pet requires medications, or your pet has any routines they are used to I will make sure they feel safe and comfortable!
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’ve had both some combinations of dogs and cats my whole adults life and I can’t imagine my life with them in it. I will love your pets like they are my own. I have two cats at home that require some of my attention but I do have flexibility. Looking to expand my business to allow more weekly routine but as of right now I am available nights and weekends I will give your pets all the love and attention they need. I will pay special attention to any special care or needs that you might have.
“My cat, Bailey, doesn't like strangers and requires insulin injections and thyroid medicine. Maureen persistently worked with him to gain his trust and cooperation. She consistently communicated her progress with him and alleviated my concerns about being away. I would highly recommend Maureen to care for any high maintenance fur baby.”
“Connor took excellent care of my two senior dogs! She was very nice and very loving towards my dogs. Great with communication and punctual. Followed all directions. I highly recommend her!”
“Sara was great with our shy cat. She was punctual and reliable for our long stay away from home, and provided regular updates and pictures. We will be booking with Sara again!”
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!
“Lindsay helped make sure my cat was dad and HAPPY during a crazy week of travel and extra-long work days. You know you have a great sitter when you cat looks around your legs when you get home to see if Lindsay is there too! She brought in packages and made sure lights were on for when I got home after dark. And Cory always gets great play-time. I’m so glad we found Lindsay!”
“I have so much anxiety leaving our cats, but Wolf made me feel so at ease! Their pictures and notes each day were wonderful and helped me enjoy my trip. We hope to book them again for our next travels!!!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
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.
“Super thankful for Azya checking in on my Ivy while we were out of town. She sent daily photos of her, which was super reassuring, and gave her all the snuggles. She took excellent care & was very communicative. She went above and beyond and I highly recommend her taking care of your fur baby!”
“I can't say it enough: Katie is the best. Truly you cannot find a more loving, patient, knowledgeable pup person! My Daisy is very very hyper, energetic and sassy. She also is a sensitive girl when it comes to her tummy. Knowing that Katie is there with her makes me feel so at ease. Katie is confident, nurturing and just truly a gift to our family. ❤️❤️”

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.

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.

- 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.
