About: In addition to being a dog owner for 26 years, I have also worked with the Humane Society socializing dogs to humans and other dogs. One of my more noticeable cases was a dog who was not very outgoing. She was very shy. After all the work I put in, and a couple days, she was sitting in my lap in the world me to pet her, somethings no other volunteer had acheived. I have owned dogs all my life. I just had to say goodbye to my 18 year old chihuahua so I am very experienced in senior care. I’m very flexible any time, but after 5pm on weekdays or anytime on the weekends are when I will be free no matter what. I work 8-5 , but can work around my schedule to provide day walks or check in around noon Earning a dog’s trust is very important. I know to sit on the floor, allow them to walk up to me and offer a hand if they would like me to pet them. I love dogs so I play fetch, take them on walks, and give them unlimited pets
“Angelica took great care of my 3 cats. She followed the instructions well and handled other issues like adding more litter when needed. The cats were well taken care of. I will book Angelica again when needed.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have always had a genuine love for animals! Being around pets throughout my life, along with having an aunt who trains therapy dogs, has given me a strong appreciation for animal behavior, patience, consistency, and positive interactions. My background as a teacher has also helped me develop skills in understanding behavior, adapting to different personalities and needs, and building trust through patience and clear communication. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with cats as well and understand that every pet has different routines, boundaries, and preferences. Whether your pet is energetic and ready for an adventure, shy and needing a little extra time to warm up, or happiest with a calm companion, I want them to feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I would treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m dependable, attentive to details, and happy to follow your pet’s established routines and any special instructions. Most of all, I would love the opportunity to spend time with your furry family members and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands! I work full-time as a teacher and also support local music nonprofits on Sundays, so I’m thoughtful about the commitments I take on and the time I can dedicate to pet care. I plan to accept bookings that fit comfortably within my schedule, allowing me to be dependable, present, and attentive to each pet’s needs. Rover is a wonderful opportunity for me to make more room in my life for something I genuinely love: spending time with animals! Caring for pets, especially getting out for walks and enjoying the companionship of dogs, would be a rewarding balance to my work in education and music. My availability will vary around my work schedule, but when our schedules align, I look forward to providing reliable, loving care and giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I would never take that responsibility lightly. I have cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to keep their routines consistent, pay attention to the little things, and respect their individual personalities. Some cats want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer to do their own thing until they’re ready to come to you. I’m happy to meet them where they are! For dogs, I love the opportunity to get outside, go for walks, play, and give them some extra companionship while their people are away. I’m also happy to follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I would care for your pets in their own home whenever possible, keeping their routine familiar and their space tidy. I’m happy to send updates and photos, too, so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away. Above all, I want your pets to feel safe and cared for, and I want you to feel confident that they’re in good hands.
About: I recently had two rescue heeler mixes. We competed in agility, and did herding, barn hunt, and parkour. I loved to hike, walk, run, and be active with my dogs. Now that they're gone, I have an open space in my heart for time with yours. I walk and run or hike several days out of the week. I'd love to bring your well-behaved dog along for their enjoyment and my company! Because I live up a steep gravel driveway, I prefer to meet in town or at your place to take your dog for a walk or run. But if they need to come to my place for sitting, I have a fenced yard with some agility equipment. I also have a dog door, to let them have free access to my .5 acre fenced yard. I do have a cat, so if your dog comes to my place, it will have to get along with her.
About: I was taught to learn the animal not the other way around. I love to watch animals in their habitat and to make sure they feel safe and wanted. I work part time in a pharmacy. I have 3 cats at home I care for and can’t wait to add more animals, reptiles, fish, or any other creature to my mix. I love caring for any creature in their own environment. I believe everything works easier for everyone that way. If they need to come to my home it can be discussed.
About: I have over 6 years experience of house/pet sitting(from another website) caring for a variety of animals, fish, dogs, birds, cats, goats, a donkey, a llama and chickens. I am comfortable and confident with almost all domestic animals. I am a retired Registered Nurse with over 30 years experience in various fields of medicine. I am now a full time house and pet sitter travelling around(by car) the continental US and Canada caring for other's beloved fur family. My past nursing experience plus my 6 years of house/pet sitting has made me highly observant and attentive to the smallest details. While I am calm and easygoing I am also excellent in challenging and emergency situations being both independent and self reliant. I love dogs and cats but do not have any of my own due to my gypsy like lifestyle. I have traveled a fair bit in my life having a curious mind and a zest for learning and experiencing new things. I am very neat and clean.....so your home will be just as you left it while respecting your property.
“Review is for cat boarding. That sounds like a sport but you get the idea - my cats stayed with Kaelin, who had generous availability on short term notice. 2 cats, 6 nights, 0 problems. Kaelin is an absolute gem. Pre-stay she held a call to learn the specific needs of my cats and throughout their stay she picked up on components of their personalities I didn't even think to share. One of my girls is considerably shyer than the other, but Kaelin made consistent and ultimately successful efforts to engage each cat in a manner comfortable for them. Her patience calmed my shyer cat and her energy and thoughtfulness invigorated my more excitable/curious cat - she picked up on beneficial ways to interact with each of them that could not have been covered alone by what I shared with her pre-stay. Kaelin is clearly someone who has a profound understanding of and deep appreciation for animals, and she takes seriously how much they mean to us, her customers. Kaelin paid incredible attention to detail, was able to tailor every aspect of their stay in ways beyond what I requested, and she provided consistent updates with photos and videos of the two, often focusing on activities she intuited that I would be wondering about (How is shy Summer utilizing the space and responding to interaction? How is playful Autumn being allowed to explore and see outside? etc.). Through the way she was engaging with my girls and seeing how they, in turn, responded to her, it is so clear that Kaelin approaches her work with immense passion and care. It put me at ease throughout my entire trip, and it was clearly an excellent experience for my girls as well. Cannot recommend highly enough, will absolutely be a return customer.”

Kelsey did a great job taking care of our cat. She was very responsive and provided pictures every visit. Our cat is shy and takes awhile to open up but she was comfortable enough with Kelsey to come out of her hiding places. We will definitely book Kelsey again in the future!
Andrea was fantastic! It was clear from the get go she cared about our cat Penny, and she took such good care of her while we were gone, including getting a heater from her home to keep Penny warm when our heater suddenly stopped working. She took great pictures and handled her medications and food / water / litter perfectly, we'll definitely book her again!

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.

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 .
