About: Caring for dogs since age 10, I grew up fostering pets and have experience with dogs, cats, and different personalities, providing loving, attentive, reliable care. I am available for Rover pet care services on most days of the week with a flexible and reliable routine. I can provide care in the mornings, mid-day, and evenings from Monday through Tuesday and Thursday through Sunday, making it easy to meet pets’ feeding, exercise, and companionship needs throughout the day. On Wednesdays, I am available in the morning and evening but unavailable during the afternoon, so care on that day would be adjusted to ensure pets receive attention before and after that time. I prioritize safe, respectful, and reliable care when looking after pets in their owner’s home. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, and daily routines, to ensure pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I also take great care to keep the home secure by locking doors, monitoring pets closely, and preventing any potential escape or hazards. Cleanliness is important to me, so I maintain tidy feeding areas, litter boxes, and living spaces while ensuring anything unsafe is kept out of reach. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being, watching for any signs of stress or illness and keeping owners updated with regular communication. Above all, I respect each home and its rules, providing a calm, safe, and loving environment so pets can feel happy and secure in their familiar space.
“Christy is a gem! I book with her for my kitties every time I can. They are all so contented with her care and I come home to calm, happy kittos. She’s so caring and dependable and was there for us for the birth of our baby — it was so reassuring knowing our beloved cats were in great hands during one of our biggest life moments.”
“Anna was amazing with my little girl! They really took the time to make sure everything my cat needed was provided and sent lots of photos with detailed report cards after their visits. I’m super grateful for the care they gave my little girl!”
“Crystal is an amazing cat sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well taken care of while we were out of town. Her updates were very thorough and the pics she sent were amazing and plentiful. She even brought her own cat toys to play with our kitty :) I recommend her highly to anyone looking for a cat sitter and will definitely be hiring her again!”
“Sara did a great job with a week of daily check ins for our two cats. She was timely and was not in a rush when they needed some extra attention. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve walked dogs since I was 13 and have a cat right now who takes prozac so I’m experienced with difficult animals as well! I’m currently a student so my time is pretty wide open throughout the day aside from a couple classes! I’m able to walk dogs early in the morning and late at night and even during the afternoon! I have been a cat owner for my entire life so I have immense experience with all types of cats and know what makes them tick (space and food)
“Carolina is beyond professional, compassionate, and thorough - SO thorough! She completely surpassed my expectations as a first time Rover user, and made a very anxious cat/dog lady feel 100% comfortable leaving my home and loved pets in her care. I’m grateful to have met her!”
“Thank you so much Ned for your service in taking care of LucyLulu and London on Election day so I could be an Election Judge for 15 hours and not have to worry about the dogs with you coming three times. I appreciate your report stating they were both good. Take care and thanks again. Tip processed.”
“Yuanqing (Ping Ping) was extraordinary! My cats are quite shy, but she kept me updated on them, and even managed to make friends with them! Really remarkable level of service. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I will be sure to request her services the next time I have to leave town.”
“Olivia was amazing with my year old GSP. She was punctual, friendly and enthusiastic during the initial meet and greet. Afterwards, she was always on time and even stayed a few minutes past the allocated 30 minute session just to make sure my pups needs were met. I highly recommend her for any of your pet watching needs.”
About: I have lots of patience for all kinds of animals with all kinds of behaviors. I am passionate about cats dogs, and any pet I meet. I am often the favorite human to the animals in my life. I currently have a part time job but am planning to do full time school in the fall. I will have time outside of classes, and plenty of time over the summer, to care and play with your pets! I will try to get to know your pet as best I can. I am flexible and willing to snuggle, play, go on walks or look out the window with your furry friend. If I am ever watching pets in my own home I have a very friendly 30 lb terrier mix that loves to play with other dogs.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I grew up with both and had a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or a cozy companion while you’re away, I’m here to help! I provide attentive, loving care and will treat your pet like my own. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet your furry friend! I kindly request to care for only non-reactive dogs and those who are hypoallergenic or do not shed much as my allergies are getting worse, unfortunately. Thank you! I work from home a few days a week and am home most weekends. I’d love to have some furry friends to join me! I’m open for midday walks on my work from home days and am open to evening walks most days. I don’t currently have any pets of my own so your pet will get my full attention. I do have a 6 year old who loves animals and will play too! I can crate your pet, if that’s preferred and will give them time outside on a leash.
About: Hello, I grew up with cats and dogs. May fur babies have always had a special place in my heart and home. In college I would watch my friends dogs ?pro-bone-o ? ( humor not extra!) I used to have a 70 pound Australian cattle dog/ Red Pointer mix. I discovered Rover and realized I could make a little extra income. As a pet parent myself I know what it feels like to be away from your baby. Whether you are away from home just for the day or on an overnight trip you can be sure that your fur babies are taken care of :) I recently started a new office job in the city with a hybrid schedule. Thus, I am away about 8/9 hours when I am in the office. Safety is very important to me, so if you have a specific instructions please let me know and I will do my best to follow them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Brighton
PingPing was great! I booked a drop in visit for my dogs as I was going to be away when they needed dinner and medications. She let me know when she arrived, what she did, and sent plenty of pictures which I appreciate. She played with them as well, so they were happy and tired when I got home which is so nice. She was friendly, and communicative, thank you!

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 New Brighton 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.
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 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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
