I currently live in a cozy cottage in a gated apartment complex with my boyfriend. It also has an area for dogs, both big and small

Amazing communication, great updates and photos, and truly went above and beyond in caring for our pup with walks and cuddles. Very thankful for the care and service provided by Kevin!”

I am happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need while their owners are away. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My online classes leave me with plenty of open time throughout the day to focus on feeding, exercising, walking, and giving attention to your pets. I have always created a secure, calm, and structured environment for every pet in my care. During walks and playtime, I maintain constant supervision to keep your pet safe from hazards.
“Kristen went above and beyond with my dog, Belle! She took her potty even in the rain, played with her, very considerately kept me updated, and was very professional during a tricky moment on a walk. Would definitely recommend her services to anyone!”

About: With a background in animal biology and a long-standing passion for animal care, I offer thoughtful, dependable pet sitting rooted in understanding behavior, health, and individual needs. I work an early salaried job, which means I’m typically only out of the house from about 5am to 2pm. That schedule allows me to maintain consistent morning and evening care routines, spend quality time at home in the afternoons, and ensure pets receive regular attention, playtime, and meals throughout the day. I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible, whether in my home or yours. In my home, pets receive a calm, structured environment with consistent feeding, litter or potty care, enrichment, and supervised free time. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining familiarity by respecting routines, spaces, and preferences, while providing attentive care, play, and companionship. I’m observant of behavior changes, prioritize safety, and communicate clearly with updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember because of the unconditional love, joy, and companionship they bring into our lives. I’ve also had cats, and to me, they’re all family—not just pets. ❤️🐾 Now that my children are grown and I no longer have pets of my own, caring for other people’s beloved fur babies has become something I truly enjoy. I give each dog my full attention, patience, affection, and TLC. Whether they’re young, senior, shy, recovering, or a show dog, I care for each one according to their individual needs and personality. I also administer pills if needed as well. When your dog stays with me, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved—just like they’re at home. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your fur baby is being cared for as one of my own. I’m a mature, honest, trustworthy, and reliable pet sitter.

This also allows me to get my pet fix…lol..:). I really enjoy taking care of pets (dogs or cats) as though they’re my own whether at my house ( I live in a condo and we have grassy areas throughout the complex) or at your house. My goal is have them feel like I’m just another family member. I feed, play, and walk with them. I also check mail, bring packages in, and water the plants at your home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Highlands
Ashley really came through for us on short notice after we moved into a new city. Glad to say we plan to work with her in the future. She was a delight to interact with and the cats loved her. Set a good schedule that she followed and gave us great daily updates while we were out of the country. Very trustworthy and was great also for helping keep an eye on the house.
This was our first time using Rover and Christany was great with our 1 year old pup! She was able to accommodate our request for multiple days of drop-ins while we were out of town with little notice and provided very quick and easy communication. She shared sweet photos and logged all his activity, and checked in with us for preferences to make sure she knew exactly how we wanted him cared for. We are so grateful, and will absolutely be requesting Christany next time we are away!
Olivia was fantastic! I received so many pics and some videos of my for babies, it made being away from them a little easier. My animals warmed up to her very quickly and I felt quite comfortable with her taking care of them. I will absolutely be using her in the future!!!

- 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.

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
