“My old man cat hid but Sarah made sure to get pictures of him even when he was hiding under the bed. She made fast friends with my kitten and they had a blast <3 Everything was as I left it and my boys were well cared for.”
“Serenity is a great pet sitter and I love getting the pictures and hearing how my cats are doing when I'm away. I can tell she loves animals and I feel like someone is caring for them when I'm not home.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I am comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and playtime. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I am dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and sizes. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a parent of three active boys, I am organized, dependable, and used to caring for others. I have flexibility throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I will follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I respect your home, keep it secure, and will send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
“Sierra was amazing with both of our dogs. They loved her and her family!! She was photos and videos which we definitely appreciated!! We will definitely recommend and be using her again!! ??”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs and currently have two of my own, so caring for them is second nature to me. They truly become part of the family — honestly, my dogs are like my children. Because of this, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also a Reiki practitioner and sometimes offer gentle animal Reiki, which can help create a calm and relaxed environment for animals. My experience with energy work has helped me become very patient, attentive, and in tune with what animals need. Your dog will be treated like one of my own — with lots of love, attention, and care. I am available Friday evening through Monday evening most weekend. I believe this would be a great opportunity to care for animals while helping their owners have an easier time in life when responsibilities arise. I have a very clean, comfortable, trusted home. I watch a dear friend of mines dog once in a while, and while I have 2 dogs of my own, they truly enjoy the company of other dogs that can become their new friends! I will treat your baby as part of my family and show them the most love I can.
About: Aside from owning dogs my entire life, I have years of experience taking care of pets. I accept any type of pet and all ages. I am a certified dog trainer. I also worked at a veterinary office and dog grooming. I have certification in pet CPR and first aid so I am able to handle emergency situations. I can administer medications and provide any medical care if needed. I am very flexible. I make my own schedule to accommodate everyone's needs. I can be available 7 days a week pretty much at any time. I will come to your house whenever days/times needed. I provide potty breaks, feedings, and of course play time which can include short walks, a game of fetch, or just sitting with them on the couch for pets and snuggles. If there is anything you need other than pet care, I can do that as well. Examples include, bringing in mail or taking out garbage, or watering plants.
About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs and cats since I was a young child. I grew up on 5 acres and we bred collies and Persians. As an adult I have always had dogs and cats. I have 6 tiny chihuahuas and a beagle and a Great Pyrenees and a cat! They are all friendly, healthy and up to date on vaccines. I absolutely love my pets and have a lot of patience for working with them and love to give them. I am available to take care of your pets as needed for potty breaks on evenings and weekends - Boarding in my home and dog walking. I live in Neshannock on a little over a half an acre. I have a small portion of my back yard fenced in for the dogs to go potty. I hope you’ll consider me for your pets needs. I am a single, fulltime working mom of 2 kiddos aged 13 and 18. I work Monday- Friday til 4:30 pm. I am available after 4:30 during the week and All weekends. I don’t have a fenced yard but I have a decent portion fenced in area off our back door and I live on a private dead end street with almost an acre of land. I use dog runs and leashes too if you prefer they be walked. I am very careful and protective of my dogs. They are very loved and well cared for and I will treat your dogs the same.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my combination of vet tech experience and wildlife biology expertise. I can provide professional-level care, from administering medications to managing health concerns, ensuring your pet is in safe hands. My wildlife biology background also means I’m comfortable working with a wide range of animals, including exotic species and those with special care needs. Plus, I can help train puppies, using positive reinforcement to foster good behavior and obedience. With my specialized skills, I offer a higher standard of care that goes beyond traditional pet sitting. I will make time for your furry baby as long as I have enough notice! I currently work full time in the Veterinary Medicine field as well. My three cats are indoor and have full roam of my house. I do not bring other pets to my house for the safety of my babies, but I am fully supportive of whatever way the client wants their furry baby managed in their home.

“This was our first time using Rover and leaving our cherished fur babies in someone else’s hands. From the meet and greet to the final check in, Kristi went over and above our original expectations. She kept us informed, sending us photos, which truly made a difference while travelling. She provided many special touches which we will be forever grateful for as she genuinely cared and loved for our fur babies like they were her own. We will forever be indebted to her and without a doubt, use her services again! Highly recommend!”

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 Castle 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.

- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
