About: I've had pets my whole life, mostly cats, but also bunnies, goats, and a dog. I have also volunteered at animal shelters, and worked in both veterinary clinics and grooming salons. I'm a licensed veterinary technician, which means I am very comfortable giving medications as needed, and may even be able to trim nails or bathe dogs with an additional helper. I have taken care of cats, dog, horses, goats, a tortoise, and a few small pocket pets. I am comfortable with most species, but have limited experience with pocket pets, reptiles and birds. I'm currently in the process of looking for a full-time job, so I have more time than usual to take care of your pet(s)! When I get the full-time job, I will be more limited to dog-walking and drop-in appointments, with more availability on the weekends and holidays. I currently live in an apartment building, so I plan to mostly do dog-walking or drop-in apartments. I have a cat currently at my apartment, who prefers dogs over cats, but may get along with a cat with a careful introduction (she tends to be too playful at times).
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. When I was little my mom got me a dog that grew up with me for about 14 years. She was my best friend. I take great pride in taking care of pets and make sure that they are happy and healthy while in my care. I am currently working as a part time nanny which leaves me with a lot of free time. I am available to pet sit at your home or boarding at my home. My home has a big fenced in back yard and I have a 1 year old golden retriever that loves to play with other dogs. I also can provide a crate for sleeping or anywhere else in my home.
About: I care for your pets like they’re my own. Patience and safety and super important to me. I have experience with puppies, senior pets and administering medications, so I know how to adjust care for every age and personality. Whether it’s playtime, walks or cozy cuddles. I make sure your pet feels happy, secure and right at home. My goal is simple: fun, safe and stress-free care for your furry family! Typically I end work around 4 p.m. Wednesday- Sunday. And depending on how far away or the type of care needed I can check in throughout the day. I have Monday and Tuesday’s off usually so I would be able to watch over pets during those days with all day availability. Working in whatever environment to make the pet feel at peace while their owners are away is super important to me. Mostly, staying with them and watching if anything abnormal is happening. Communication is also key, so taking photos of their day to ensure a safe and enjoyable time is vital.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout all stages of their life. This also includes all dog sizes. Whatever you may need, I’ll be there to help! I work full time Monday-Friday, so I’ll be ready to help every morning and evening! I’m also free most weekends so I’ll be ready to help you get that weekend getaway! I treat every pet I care for like they’re my own. I always follow every instruction to the letter, and I will never leave anything to chance or assumption.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Over the past five years, I’ve trained two puppies for my family and regularly help care for the pets of friends and relatives. At home, I have two friendly dogs and two older children who are wonderful with animals. We live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks, with a nearby park for extra playtime. I enjoy spending time outdoors with my dogs and relaxing with them at home. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule with long breaks that allow me to give plenty of attention and care to the pets I watch. I truly look forward to meeting your furry family members and treating them like my own! I'm a teacher that has long breaks to be available for pet sitting during typical vacation times. We usually are up early for breakfast and morning playtime. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love other dogs. We enjoy playing out in the yard but also snuggling on the couch.
About: I have taken care of and had dogs of my own my entire life. I am now 30 with of course a dog of my own and kiddos that also love dogs! We had fostered a friends dog until he was able to get onto his feet. Depending on the weather we love to go for walks, car rides, and of course lowes. I'm currently working part time and now more than ever it slows down to 2 days of work for me. I do have a younger son and we would love to play with your dog. Any size is welcomed. We do have a dog of our own and plenty of space to run around and play inside. I have plenty of space and a friendly dog that would love to keep your pup entertained. We do not have much of a yard but we do enjoy going for walks. I am a CNA and love to help people and of course animals as well. Anything I can do to make your pet feel comfortable and at home while your away is what I will do.
About: From the time I was born, animals have been a part of my life. My pets are my family and yours will be treated the same. I have a wide range of experience when it comes to animals and care for much more than dogs and cats. That includes….saltwater and freshwater aquariums, hedgehogs, rabbits, reptiles, farm animals such as chickens and goats. I will also water your plants, bring in your mail, and set out your trash cans. I work from home and have a flexible schedule and will make your pet a priority 24/7. Your pet will have lots of love and attention. I do not place them in a crate like they do at a boarding facility. They will be able to sit on the couch if they desire! I have a large yard and allow them to get the exercise they need. I live just across from Greenway and will take them on daily walks.
“Kim and her daughter took excellent care of our sweet cat named Alice. They visited her daily, rain or shine. Alice is very social and loves attention. They gave her plenty of petting, freshen her bowls of water, refilled dry food, gave wet food, and treats. They also scooped her litter box daily. Alice was happy to have their attention and she was very well cared for during our 4 night absence. I highly recommend Kim as a pet sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mascot
We adore Breanne! She’s responsive, timely, and easy going. We booked her to drop-in on our dogs, but turns out our cats love her, too! You know you found a good one when the whole house huddles around the front door in anticipation of her arrival. Our puppy has medical needs and she’s handled everything with grace. Highly recommend using Breanne for your pet needs!
If you are looking for a reliable, responsive and trustworthy sitter, look no further! Breanne showed up on time for drop in visits, sent a lot of pictures and was super caring. Even very detailed in how each drop in visit went which was amazing to hear when out of town. I would recommend her to any of my personal friends and family and use her again. Scout also is a 82-83 pound ball of energy, couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after and play with him.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
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 Mascot 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
