About: Hi, I’m Bri! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience as a pet sitter, dog walker, kennel technician, and kennel manager. In school to become a future Certified Veterinary Technician! I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors, high-energy pets, and those with special needs. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, or extra comfort while you’re away, I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every animal like family. I have open availability right now so pickup and drop-off anytime works for me. On my days off, I dedicate my full attention to your pets, making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and personalized care. For everyone’s safety, I ask that pets are up to date on vaccinations, flea-free, and friendly with other pets. I can only accept small dogs, as my medium sized dog isn’t comfortable around larger breeds. If your cat prefers their own space, I can keep my cats separated to help them feel comfortable.

“I can't say enough nice things about Hannah, she is absolutely amazing! She watched my two elderly cats for two weeks, and did a fantastic job. I absolutely hate leaving them and typically worry the whole time I'm away, but after the meet and greet I knew they would be well cared for and safe. They both liked her immediately which is extremely rare for one of them. That same cat doesn't do well with being left, she's always extremely clingy and lethargic when we return home. This was the very first time, (and she's 13 years old) she seemed happy and unconcerned by our absence! It really showed how comfortable and secure she felt. Hannah is kind, professional, and quick to respond. I'd hire her again in a second!”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My mom and I started doing TNR and taking care of a colony of cats when I was around 8 years old, while also having cats and dogs of our own! I currently have my own cats and dogs who are my entire world. I volunteer regularly at the SPCA in Aiken, SC and have a few months of experience from working at a dog and cat boarding facility. I have a lot of experience with cats that have different medical conditions such as FIV. My own cats have had surgeries and needed to be medicated so I have experience in giving pills and liquid medicine. I’m not currently working which means I have a very flexible schedule. I am more than happy to discuss a routine that works best for you! I can care for your pets by dropping by and spending an extended amount of time with them to ensure they are getting any emotion connection they may need. In addition, I will take care of the basic necessities such as cleaning and feeding. I am more than happy to send updates throughout the day/time period to ensure you know how they are doing!

About: I have been around many different types of dogs and cats since I was young. I love animals and have never had any issue taking care of neighbors or friends pets. I adopted a kitten of my own a few months ago and she is the sweetest! I currently work 2 part time jobs and I am a full time nursing student. However I am very hard working and will have time to take care of your animal in anyway it needs. Drop by visits are best but if your animal needs an overnight watch I am more than happy to stay there. I can easily make sure the dogs or cats are safe and if they need to be crated it will be no issue at all! I am very good with handling pets even difficult ones and puppies.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 15 years now, when I was a kid the pets were my responsibility, including loving, feeding, walking, washing, etc. Pets have always been a part of my life and always will be! I currently work rotating swing shift my schedule right now for the first full week of the month Friday - Monday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Tuesday - Thursday Friday - Sunday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Monday Tuesday - Thursday 6:30 pm to 6:30 am Off Friday to Sunday Monday - Thursday 6:30 am to 6:30 pm Off Friday to the following Friday During these times I can visit your pet when I get off work and as I’m going in, plus I will use my breaks to visit your pet as they are a hour long so I typically have the time to give your pets the care they need I won’t be taking any pets in my home, but to ensure your babies safety and comfort, I will feed them and water them, after they’ve eaten and are ready to go outside for a potty break I will walk them if needed or take them into your backyard and let them do their business, and will clean up after your pet. Once they’re done I will play with them enough to tire them out so they have a nice long nap before I return to visit them again :)

About: Nurse by trade, animal lover by heart. Looking to care for and spoil your animals with my fun loving animal enthusiasm. I’ve been a dog mom all my life and couldn’t imagine a house without one. I love dogs of all ages and understand the requirements and care of each stage. I can roll around on the ground with your puppy or cuddle your senior baby. Cats??? Love them too! I am available during the week after 5 and every weekend. Please message me if weekday service is something you’ll need as I do not have this open on my calendar. I can open it for specific appointments. I can administer oral medications and am a quick learner with injections if needed. I give little ones vaccines all day at my 9-5 😊 I’m a full time nurse during the week but am looking for drop in sessions with your babies in the afternoons and definately on the weekends. Mon-Fri I am available 5pm-9pm and on Sat and Sun I have full availability. I will treat your fur baby like it’s my own. I’m a caring, considerate human being whom loves the company of animals. I have an adorable 4 year old Boxer at home that would agree.

About: I've had pets since I was little. We got our first dog when I was in about 4th grade. At the moment I have a Guinea pig. I've been to obedience school with my dog before so I think that might come in handy. Other than that. I just want to enjoy their company. And also keep an eye on your bundle of joy for you. I've had pitbulls, pinkingneses, and a beagle before but I mostly know about smaller dogs. I've read a plethora of dog books from my local library during my early teenage years to get a good understanding of most species. I also am constantly researching anything I need to, on more than just Google and wikipedia but multiple sources. I hope I can be of service to anyone who would have me. I work two part time jobs and am looking to fill my time with some fur babies. The time spend at both jobs is equal to less than 40 hours. I have a crate trained dog in my home and plenty of yard to run around. I live on a dirt road so it is not traveled often.

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.

About: I not only have a passion in fitness, but the well being of all furry pets, especially dogs! I treat every dog as my own, because they all have a heart just like we do and need to make sure we understand their needs as a companion. I am willing to go beyond and make sure your pet remains active, and know the importance since I have a pretty healthy 11 years old pup myself! Allow me to show you that you can become comfortable and know that your dog will be in great hands, while they are gaining a friend=) This is not a job to me, but a privilege! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know! Hope to work with you and your wonderful dog soon! I'm an Exercise Science/Psychology graduate and trainer. My line of work is organized how I schedule it to make sure I am meeting standards and delivering the proper care. IF we agree to bring your fur babies in my home I could provide great accommodations. I have a sweet dog and cat so what ever I could do to meet needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
