About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have had dogs throughout my life. I’ve cared for up to three dogs at a time and have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need extra patience, attention, and care. Over the years, I’ve learned that every dog has their own personality, temperament, and individual needs. I take the time to understand each dog and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re with me. When we’re out on walks, your dog’s safety is always my priority. I stay alert to our surroundings, watch for other dogs, people, traffic, and anything else that could potentially be a concern. I treat every dog as if they were my own and would always do everything I can to keep them safe. Most importantly, I genuinely love dogs and thankfully, they seem to love me right back! 🐾❤️ I look forward to getting to know your pup and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love along the way. I currently work full time at a school and typically finish my workday around 3:30 PM. Once I’m home and have taken care of my own two dogs, I have plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for other pets. I’m flexible with my schedule and would make pet care a priority. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I’m happy to work around their feeding, walking, and care schedules. Depending on the location and distance, I can plan my day accordingly to make sure each pup receives the time, attention, and care they need. I have two small dogs of my own. Casper is 8 years old and Coco is 7 months old. My dogs are truly members of our family, and our home is their home. They have plenty of freedom to relax and play throughout the day, and they love cuddling with us at night. Our routine includes time outside in our yard in the morning before work and again as soon as I get home. They also enjoy going for walks with me or my two boys. They are playful, love their toys, enjoy having visitors, and especially love spending time with my children. When caring for a client’s pet, I would treat them with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I would make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible while providing plenty of love, supervision, and companionship.
“Quick reply, prompt visit, really good photos. When I got back, everything was in its right place and clean and fair. My dog seemed very happy as well. What more can I ask for? Also she did a tick check, which I didn't even think about for a quick walk. Very much appreciated. Thank you.”
“Lillie was outstanding while watching our cat while we were away. We received many picture updates and descriptions of each visit. You can tell she is a true animal lover and provided lots of TLC during her visits. This was our first time using River and we could not be happier with Lillie as our pet sitter. 10/10 would recommend and would rebook her in a heartbeat.”
“Kamber took incredible care of our two kitty cats on very short notice! She was very communicative, fast to respond, and empathetic to our fur babies. I would absolutely book her quality services again!”

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.
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 .
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.

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.
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 .
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.
