Safety, trust & environment

Your home, your rules. I’ll learn the details of your pet’s routine and always ask before making any decisions. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and comfortable. Every stay is backed by my personal pet sitter insurance and the Rover guarantee.

Information Tia S. would like to know about your pet

Please share any dietary needs, food or treat allergies, medications, or special accommodations. It’s also helpful to know about your pet’s behavior, including any reactivity toward people or other dogs, and how they do on leash. The more I know, the better I can care for your pet!

A typical day

For dogs: hikes, dog park visits, toy play like tug of war and fetch, or just a relaxed hangout, we go at your dog’s pace. For cats: wand toys, play sessions, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and entertained while you’re away.

Tia was fantastic and very accommodating of me needing an extra day. My cats loved having her over each day!

Tia took such good care of our pets, our house, and our plants! She sent us pictures everyday, and we appreciated that! If she had a question about anything, she let us know. We felt good knowing that Tia was staying at our house while we were away. We have her booked again for another getaway in late September. Daisy and Zima both seemed well cared for and happy when we got home.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
