“Erin was great. The app showed her start and stop times for the drip-ins each time, so we looked forward to getting the notifications. She was very consistent and I appreciated her willingness to communicate throughout the entire process. I hope she's available next time we need Rover services! Thanks, Erin!”
About: My love for animals started when I was very young. I always knew that I wanted to work very closely with animals. I have had pets for as far back as I can remember. Everything from a Great Dane to pet mice,as well as friends that didn't have fur 🤣 I currently have 2 indoor cats, 3 Great Pyrenees, and a few others that aren't approved for rover 😜 I also run a family farm business. We have most of the things that you would expect large and small . I can confidently say that I am living my childhood dream! I love each animals unique personality and strive to make them all feel comfortable and cared for. I administer the medication when needed to pets and livestock at home and on the farm. If there is something I am not familiar with, I am always eager to learn. I am currently working from home. I run a family farm business. Therefore I am very flexible in my ability to schedule drop-ins and work with my clients needs. I can follow any care schedule, including but not limited to: feeding, walking, playing, crating, and cleaning up after your pets. Any special needs can also be discussed.
“Hannah was absolutely fantastic with our 2 cats! She came and did a meet and greet before our trip and she sent pictures and video when she checked in!! We will absolutely book her again when we go out of town!!”
“We have had 2 visits so far and it was so nice to get the photos and updates. She stayed for a while each time and spent extra time with them. We will definitely use her when we need someone again.”

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. It’s not a job it’s a passion. I am full time active duty in the military so my schedule varies I work essentially a firefighter type schedule so schedule will be custom with each client. On my days off I will be available all day. I am able to travel for my clients. I am patient and enjoy pets. My care will be honest and done with integrity and be authentic.
About: I love all animals and have a puppy of my own that I love to take on runs with me. My dog is my whole world and I would love to help others with their pets. I do work full time but am available for stop ins/walks during lunch time and plenty of play time after 5:30. I generally take my dogs on their walk around 6pm. I am able to board most weekends as well. I can easily crate pets if needed. I do not have a fenced in yard but have tie offs with long leashes. I have also near a school that has a fenced in yard that I and other neighborhood dogs use. For dogs, we will start with a walk to burn off some energy. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water and then we will enjoy more playtime. Throughout the day I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, well-fed and engaged. For cats, I’ll start by providing fresh food and water and spend time with interactive toys or quiet cuddles.
About: "Welcome to your pet’s home away from home! Living on a spacious, large farm, I offer an incredible country environment where your dogs can truly enjoy the outdoors, including safe exploration around our property's little pond. I bring years of diverse, hands-on pet care experience to ensure your animal family members are safe, happy, and loved.Having participated in multiple puppy and dog training programs, I understand the patience and consistency required for young, energetic pups. At the same time, caring for my own aging dog has given me deep experience in senior care, tracking comfort levels, and maintaining gentle routines. I am also a proud cat owner to three long-haired felines, making me highly attuned to cat behavior, specific dietary needs, and regular coat maintenance. Because I am very familiar with grooming, I always keep a sharp eye on skin health, coat condition, and overall hygiene. Whether your pet needs high-energy farm play, structured puppy guidance, or a peaceful senior sanctuary, I tailor my care to fit their exact life stage." "I am dedicated to pet care full-time, meaning your pet gets my undivided attention. My flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate midday walks, drop-in visits, and hassle-free pickups or drop-offs. Because I am home throughout the day, I can strictly adhere to complex medication schedules and provide continuous, reliable care for your dogs and cats." Safety & Environment on My Farm Your pet will enjoy a fully supervised country getaway. I utilize our spacious farm for structured, leashed walks and secure outdoor play. To ensure safety, pets are strictly monitored around our little pond, and I always check that paws are clean and dry after outdoor time.

About: I’ve been around Dogs all my life. I have Dogs sat for friends, friends of friends in their home in my home, taking a break from corporate world. I’m looking to connect with some more animals Dog specifically I’m professional, loving sweet. I’m someone who hugs and holds animals constantly andas much as possible. Your pet will be loved with me that’s for sure.. I do have a nine year-old professionally trained miniature schnauzer. He would always be with me or hear in my home. He will not necessarily be on walks or check-in, but overnights are boarding in my home. Definitely he’s very very sweet. I would definitely be using my computer during my visits while sitting on the couch with him and if I have any board meetings or interviews, I might also use your Wi-Fi. After many years in a professional career, I’m taking a meaningful break to focus on two things that bring me joy—writing and spending more time outdoors with wonderful dogs. My schedule is intentionally flexible, allowing me to provide dependable walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care. I believe pet parents deserve to enjoy vacations, work trips, or even a quiet evening out without guilt or worry. While you’re away, your pup will receive genuine companionship, thoughtful care, and plenty of love, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or curling up for cuddles, I’ll happily meet them where they are. I also have an almost 9-year-old, 14-pound Miniature Schnauzer who is professionally trained and truly the sweetest little companion I could ask for. He has a gentle temperament, loves other dogs, and provides calm, friendly company for pups who enjoy having a canine friend. If your dog prefers people over other dogs, I’m equally happy to give them one-on-one attention and will always respect their individual needs and comfort level. I believe in what I call “cuddle care”—gentle affection, belly rubs, calming massages, talking to dogs, and even singing to those who enjoy the extra attention. If your pup isn’t a snuggler, that’s perfectly okay too! I’ll always respect their boundaries while making sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease. My goal is for every visit to be filled with kindness, patience, and positive experiences so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is being cared for like one of my own.

About: I offer in house boarding So your pet doesn’t have to sleep on a hard floor and be in a kennel. Your pet will be treated as though they are one of my own.

Your pet will have all the attention, fun time and proper care they need during their visit no matter how long their visit is. I care for the pets I sit as though their own owner is caring for them. If they have food and water in front of them, 24/7 that will be something that they will have at my facility if they don’t and they have a different regiment that is something they will have in my facility if they have toys, beds, medication at their home that is what i will provide for them as well.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Norwalk stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.

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.
