About: I understand that each furry friend has their own unique personality and routine, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! Wether your furry friend is full of energy or prefers a calm and quiet environment, I will provide compassionate reliable care and keep you updated with photos and messages for your peace of mind! As a full time worker who lives with a 1year old puppy and a senior dog, I do my best to cater to their individual needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, follow all care instructions carefully, and make sure pets receive the same love and attention they’re used to. I also provide regular photo and text updates so owners can relax knowing their pet is happy and well cared for. If pets stay in my home, they’ll be treated like part of the family in a clean, safe, and loving environment. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, enrichment, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I strive to create a stress-free experience where every pet feels secure, loved, and cared for until they’re reunited with their family.
“Charlene was great with our two cats. She took care of all our kitty needs while we were away and even spent time playing with them. It was everything we wanted and needed for the two of them! Thank you Charlene❤️”
About: I’ve been around dogs, my whole life, starting with dog sitting for neighbors as a kid to now raising and training my own energetic lab/German Shepherd mix. I know how important is to trust someone with your pup and I bring that same love, attention, and structure to every dog I care for whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or quality time while your away, your dog will be in caring, capable hands. I work a full-time 8 to 5 job in Mount Vernon but I’m available for evening walks or job and visits during the week. I also have lots of flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays, so weekend care and visits are no problem. When I care for pets in your home, I do everything I can to keep the routine consistent and stress-free. I respect your space, follow your instructions closely, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Tyeler was amazing. She is very responsive and accommodating for our meet and greet. Both of our dogs liked her right off the bat. She asked great questions during our initial meeting and was flexible with our schedule changes. While checking in on Willow, she left detailed messages and clearly made Willow feel safe and cared for. I really appreciated reading her notes when I came home (we were out of phone service for the weekend) and seeing the photos she took of our girl! I would definitely recommend Tyeler as a sitter and look forward to having someone nearby I can trust when we go out of town again.”
“Thank you for everything Jasmin. You are so reliable and a great sitter. Thank you for taking great care of my fur babies. I will definitely rebook for my next service. Appreciate you a lot!”

I'm currently searching for a full time job so I'm available anytime to walk your dogs (or cats). I can come visit while you're gone during the day or stay with them while you're gone.

About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all. Growing up surrounded by a variety of dogs, from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes, I've developed a deep understanding of their needs. Whether it's providing extra care for seniors or giving energetic pups their much-needed exercise, I’m passionate about keeping your furry friends happy and healthy! I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week! Whether you need a dog walk, check-in, or caring for your pet while away, I’m here to help! Let me know your pet’s needs, and I’ll make sure they’re well cared for during the times that work best for you. Please note: Starting June 1, 2025, my HOUSE SITTING rates will be updated. On Rover, the listed rate will show as $60 per night, which applies when you're away on vacation or need care over multiple days with daytime coverage. However, if you're booking longer daytime care without an overnight stay (for example, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM), the rate will be adjusted to $20 per hour for the time I’m actively caring for your pets. While the initial booking may still show as $60, I will manually adjust the rate on my end and send it to you for approval before confirming. This helps ensure you're only paying for the time you need, and your pets still receive high-quality, attentive care. Additionally, please note that for extended visits, I can provide early morning and late night drop ins, but will stay in my own home as I have my own fur babies to care for ☺️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide care in the familiar environment of your home, ensuring they feel secure and relaxed. I build trust through consistent, loving attention, treating each pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s following specific routines or providing a calm atmosphere, I make sure your furry friend feels safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I always had dogs growing up and have been taking care of them since I was young. And it was my favorite thing to do. Im currently severing in the military and when I’m not working I would love to come and take care of your dogs and take them on walks. If any pet were to stay in my home I’d talk to the owner and assure of any medications or allergies they had to confirm. I’d make sure they are well groomed and nails are cut. If they have trouble walking we’d find another way to get them exercises.

Kayla was super nice to chat with, she stopped by for an initial meet & greet so we and our furries could get to know her. She understood how we liked to care for our animals, and treated them like her own family. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her for our next pet sitting.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mount Vernon 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 Mount Vernon 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 .

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

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.
