About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals and homes has always been part of my everyday life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, so understanding routines, responsibility, and making sure pets feel safe and loved comes naturally to me. In high school, I ran my own small pet care and house-sitting service, which gave me real experience being dependable in someone else’s home and earning their trust. I also have experience with house sitting and cleaning, so I don’t just care for your pets—I help keep your home tidy, respected, and well looked after while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and senior pets who need extra patience and care. I can help with basic grooming like brushing and baths, and I always follow routines closely so pets feel as comfortable as possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and have always made time for. I’m used to being responsible and organized, so I can easily plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, litter box care, check-ins, and any special instructions a pet may need. I’m flexible during the day and able to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs, whether that means early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening care. I also make sure to leave time for quality attention, not just quick tasks, so pets feel comfortable and cared for. Since I also have experience with house sitting and cleaning, I naturally build that into my routine as well—making sure the home is respected and kept tidy while you’re away. Overall, I structure my time in a way that prioritizes reliability, consistency, and making sure every pet feels safe and cared for. I care for pets in a calm, consistent, and attentive way that follows their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress while their owner is away. I make sure feeding schedules are followed exactly, fresh water is always available, and litter boxes or outdoor potty routines are kept clean and consistent. I also take time for interaction based on each pet’s personality—whether that’s playtime, walks, gentle attention, or simply giving them space if they’re more independent. I’m very mindful and respectful in clients’ homes, and I also have experience with house sitting and cleaning, so I keep things tidy and make sure everything is left as I found it or better. I provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel reassured and connected while they’re away. My goal is always the same: keep pets safe, comfortable, and cared for so they feel secure until their owner returns.
About: I’ve never gone a day in my life without a dog, and they’ve always been family — never just animals in the house. That same love and respect is what I bring to every pet I care for. With two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and giving oral or topical medications. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep routines consistent. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions to ensure safety at all times. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and calm in their own environment, keeping things clean and organized before I leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

“Hannah was amazing! We had to leave our 3 dogs for 4 1/2 days to go on job interviews out of state and she took such amazing care of them. With 3 dogs and one of them being 14 with a knee injury we couldn’t find a place to board them and were highly anxious about leaving them. Our dogs are our babies and she treated them so wonderfully. They were happy, healthy, and well loved during our absence! The check in photos and report cards on each visit were so appreciated. If we’re able to stay in the area we’d definitely book her again for any pup-related needs! Thank you Hannah!”
“Brittney was nothing short of amazing!! She met with us and our 3 large energetic labs and 1 small poodle, they were very excited to see her and she handled them without blinking. She was calm, focused, personable and kind. We booked brittney to watch them at our home for 6 days and she showed up 2x a day without issue. Feedings and playtime was her priority and she never missed her times. brittney kept us up to date on their well being with daily pictures and comments. Without Brittney and the peace of mind she provided my wife and I we could not have left for 6 days to go and enjoy our daughter’s wedding. Thank you so very much Brittney Can’t wait to book you again”

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
