About: 🏡 ✨ Located in a pet friendly neighborhood with many trails and parks to venture in. We are located on a 2nd floor, but have a very spacious open concept for all the zoomies. I have had pets since the day I was born and knew that would be my passion for the future. I work full time for home and have a background in dog behavior / training. My mission is to create a space that is comfortable and accommodating for all. I work full time as a pet caregiver and professional dog trainer. I work remotely so there is always someone around for your fury friend. Our home is very spacious and open, so your pup will have a lot to smell and explore. We allow all pets on couches and beds, so they can make themselves at home.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole entire life. I can’t remember a time that my house didn’t at least have one dog and cat in it. I currently have my 2 absolute babies my rescue dogs Nellie and Billie. I rescued them and raised both of them since they were puppies. I have experience with dogs of all sizes including puppies. Animals (especially dogs) have always been a passion of mine, I would love to be able to shower yours with love when needed! I currently work at a hair salon a couple of times a week but I’m only there for a maximum of 4 hours during the day so other than that I am pretty much completely free at any time any day! I have a fenced in yard and I love to take my dogs on hikes at the state park or for walks around town. I also take care of two doggies and 2 cats that aren’t mine at the clients house on Wednesday and Thursday and I let them out and feed them!
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 12. From pet sitting for families with cats and/or dogs, walking dogs for many summers, attending to animals when I babysat, and taking care of my own dog, Kurt, I have done it all! I take pride in taking care of animals, and love to spend time with them. Whether that is playing with them, walking them, or just caring for their basic needs. I currently also work a part time job, which gives me free time to take care of your pets most every weekend, and during the day Mondays between 12-5 and after 6, Thursdays after 4, and Fridays between 12-6 I will follow whatever schedule/routine you typically do for your pet in your home! I can feed them, fill their water, take them out, play with them, or even just keep them company for a bit!!
“Best sitter ever! Very caring for my recently spayed puppy making sure she got her meds and checked her surgical scar for me. Equally as attentive and caring to my second pup! Don’t know what I’d do without her. Don’t hesitate to book, you won’t regret it”
About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs and cats for the last 5 years and grew up around both since I was born! I love to stay active as well as travel when I can, which means I never take it lightly when someone trusts me with their pet, I know how important it is for them to feel like family💞 I’m headed into my senior year at Flagler College where I’m studying Marketing, but I also have a strong customer service background that makes me an excellent communicator and keeps me alert and ready! I’m currently a student during the year and working part time, but I’ve never had an issue finding time to come over and walk, or take off for a week or two when necessary (and Rover is very necessary to me!). I have two cats at home that roam freely in the house, but I’ve helped foster animals that need to be separated, crated, and live indoor/outdoor as the owner sees fit! I’ve also helped clean these houses: I’m extremely adaptable.
About: Hi! I am a Pre-Vet major at PSU and I also work at an animal shelter, so they will always be in safe hands. I also have 2 kittens and 2 dogs of my own so I understand wanting someone responsible and caring around when you can’t be! I am very flexible with hours, whether it is a last minute stop, or caring for them for awhile. I am home from college so I have a lot of free time! Skills: •veterinary experience •senior animal experience •young animal experience •administering medication •cpr certified I am currently a student, so I am unavailable Mondays-Thursdays 6pm-9:30pm. But, I am very flexible whenever I am not in class to make time to drop by! I am not able to bring pets into my home, since I do have two cats. But, I would love to get to know your animal in a space they feel comfortable; whether that is in their home, on a walk, at the park, etc!
“Aimee was incredible! Our dog was well taken care of and was taken on nice long walks, and Aimee stayed with our dog even longer than required. We were sent extremely detailed updates on every visit along with pictures of everything! I highly recommend Aimee.”
“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”
“Very good experience with Liz! She was quick to respond and helped us a lot throughout the entire trip. I usually feel worried about our pets while gone for so long, but Liz made us feel good about them being cared for.”
“Thank you Brianna they look very calm and relaxed!! I love the picture with them side by side so cute!! You are there new friend. Thanks so much Maureen”
About: Always had pets growing up and frequently watched neighbors animals. Retired small business owner and Veteran. Would love the opportunity to care for other people's dogs. I'm retired now and find that I have extra time for providing care for dogs and helping people feel comfortable sharing their pets with me. Individual care for each animal is important because they all have unique needs. I can offer whatever services are required to meet your pets needs.
“They did an incredible job with my anxious pup and went above and beyond to make her comfortable as well as communicate frequently with me. Will absolutely plan to use them whenever I need a pet sitter!!!”
“Autumn came and walked Ghost, even though I had the wrong address entered in Rover. She took him on a 30 minute walk and now he is asleep! Above and beyond are the words to describe Autumn. Especially the expert puppy advice she gave me.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Media is $20

Caroline was fantastic! She took very good care of our three cats and our dog. There were no issues and she sent great pictures of our pets after every visit. Communication was great and she provided detailed updates each visit. We were very comfortable and pleased with Caroline taking care of our pets! Thanks!
Chen is excellent with my reactive dog. She has a gentle and confident approach and instinctively knows how to manage my dog's anxiety and quickly made her feel comfortable with her. Now they are pals. I highly recommend Chen as a pet sitter especially if your pet has any fear/anxiety/special needs issues!
Karen was wonderful with my 2 dogs! She is reliable, caring and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dogs were so well cared for and I could see how happy and content they were in the photos! Knowing they were in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone!
Amber aka my dog whisper! She's amazing with my pups. They love her and listens to her and ignores my asks lol. Amber far exceed her job expectations in that when my cat went missing less than a week Amber had started watching my pups. Amber immediately contacted her friend to create a missing cat flyer for me. She still ask the status of missing cat. It's rare to find kindness in a person you just met in less than a week. I highly recommend Amber!! You can trust Amber to love and take care of your fur babies as if they are her own fur babies.
Sarah was so thorough and earnest in her clear desire to want to make my old dog have the most comfortable experience with me gone. She put Sage’s anxious self at ease almost immediately and was very attentive to her body language and how to respond. She checked in with me frequently and gave me any extra details I may need to know upon my return. Diligent, caring, and just a great overall experience!

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 Media 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 Media 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 Media with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 96% 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.
