“Alexis did very well with Husker. He is very leery of new people and she was patient with him. Was even able to get him to calm down enough to go for a walk. We have now hired Alexis for a 5 night overnight stay.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from tiny 10 lb pups to gentle 100 lb companions, and have cared for dogs who lived to be 16 years old. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’ll always treat yours with the same love, patience, and care I’d give my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, your pet will be in caring hands! 🤍 I recently found myself with some extra free time, which means I have a flexible schedule and would love to spend it caring for your furry family members! 🤍 Every pet is unique, so I always do my best to follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), or just extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away! 🤍
About: I’m available for pet sitting throughout the school year and am happy to help with whatever you need! I can do drop-in visits, stay at your home overnight, or care for your pet at my home depending on what works best for you. I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs and two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable around animals. If your pet does well with other animals, they’re more than welcome to stay with us! If you’d rather keep them comfortable in their own home, I’m also happy to come to you. I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. 🐾 I am open during the summer for whatever is needed! I can come to your house once, twice or how many times you need me. I can stay overnights. I have a fenced in yard. I have two dogs and two cats. If you prefer to have your animal here we are more than welcoming to have your pet in our home. If you are more comfortable with me coming to your house I’d be happy to do that aswell!
“Mya did an awesome job!! She took lots of pictures and gave updates for each animal :). She is super sweet and goes above and beyond!! We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have grown up with a zoo of animals around me, my entire life. I am neither a "cat person" or a "dog person", I simply love all animals (except for spiders, that's where I have to draw the line). Currently, my pets include two cats and three dogs- black lab/Pitbull (7y/o), German shorthair pointer (5y/o), and a German shepherd (1y/o). In the past, I have also cared for our previous pets such as, 3 cows, 2 riding horses, 5 dogs at once in the same house, as well as birds. There is not a person in the world that can make you happier than a pet can, free therapy! I am an outdoor freak, so I love going on nature walks and would love to have a four-legged friend to join me for morning/afternoon walks! I also do weddings, if you would love to have your fur babies there for your big day! I work from home, so I can make my own schedule! Working remotely, allows me to work from wherever to whenever! So traveling will be so easy! Tons of toys & treats! Tons of outdoor time! Plenty of snuggles! Healthy meals, for happy pets. I treat pets like kids, adjusting to all their needs!
About: I have taken care of dogs and a bunch of other animals sense I was little. I love spending time and taking care of them. I currently work with a rescue and when I can I rescue dogs I see running around. I’m currently not working anywhere so I have all day to play and take care of your pets. I am available mainly 11-5 daily but we can work something out if needed. I am not currently able to watch pets at my home. I can watch them at your home or we can go to the park or other things.
About: I’ve been around dogs and all animals my whole life and an array of animals growing up. I’ve gained professional dog training and handling experience over the last year and a half. I’ve managed large groups of dogs and worked more independently on individualized training. I have 3 of my own dogs and 2 cats so I know how important it is for your furry friends to get loving care while you are traveling. I’m hoping to gain a clientele of drop in dog walking clients during the day on the weekdays. My work can be very flexible, so I can drop in to care for you dog during the work day. I will care for your pet by providing drop in services for dogs where we could go for a walk or play in clients yard if Applicable. Care for cats by dropping in checking food and water, scooping litter, and giving your cat some love.
About: I love to get to know each dog from favorite toys, treats, activities, etc. I would love to make both you and your dog to feel both happy and safe. I am more than happy to meet both you and your dog beforehand :) not only have I dog sat countless times but I have volunteering experience at the animal human society for quite a few years doing their dog/puppies adoption. Dogs have a special place in my heart and deserve all the love and happiness in the world. I go above and beyond by building a relationship with each dog and treat each dog as I treat my own dog at home. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to give your dog(s) all the love, attention and exercise they need! I care for pets in their home to make them feel most safe and comfortable! I am happy to do meet and greets to make sure they are comfortable with me!
About: I've never had a dog before but I've always been drawn to them and plan to have one of my own in the future. I have dog sitted for some of my friends in the past and it allowed me to gain experience on caring for a pet without having one I work full time but I am available during the weekdays and weekends as needed. I can also stay overnight depending on the day! As long as it is communicated beforehand :) I don't currently have any pets but when I did, I was creative and quick witted to come up with safe, reliable ways to restrict my pet from going into a place they are not supposed to. For example, when I had a cat I used a very tall room divider to prevent my cat from going where he wasn't supposed to.
About: I have had many animals growing up, and have dog sat many many dogs before! I love taking care of animals and playing with them!

No trash laying around and nothing an animal could get into that would harm them. We love animals!
About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.
“Shari and Drako were so good to our home’s four-legged matriarch. It was our first time using a sitter/ Rover.com. We booked very last-minute and these two were quick to respond and very accommodating. Juno got to go on lots of walks and we received detailed updates with every drop-in. I would recommend them and this service!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since 2011 and have years of hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs. I’m currently a proud senior pit bull mom, so I understand everything from energetic playtime to the extra patience, attention, and love older dogs deserve. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, routines, basic training, and lots of snuggles. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own — spoiled appropriately, obviously. 😂🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to give your pup the attention they deserve! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of love. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet like I’d want someone to treat my own. As a senior pit bull mom, I’m very attentive to routines, behavior, comfort, and each dog’s individual needs. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep you updated, and make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I have three goldendoodles, Sullie who’s 10, Allie who’s 5, and Marlie who’s 2. I have helped potty train them all and have taught them basic tricks. I have also cared for friends/families pets when in need. I love all animals and enjoy making them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to help. I’m currently a full-time nursing student and have a summer nurse internship working 12 hour shifts, but I have multiple days off throughout the week that allow me to spend quality time caring for pets. My schedule varies, so I keep my availability updated. When I’m caring for your pet, they’ll get lots of attention, love, and dependable care! I always try to stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free. In your home, I will provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, potty breaks, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure. I’ll also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is doing well!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a while as I have two of my own! I will treat your dogs like I would my own! I work full time but my work is very flexible as well so I can fit around your schedule. We can definitely discuss more options for the schedule. I have two dogs of my own that I care for and I have a routine where I take them out every morning and feed them and take them for walks and just spend quality time. I can easily adapt to your dogs routine and treat them as my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Otsego
Marcale was an awesome caretaker for our dogs while we were away! She went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and help us out. She was very communicative and stayed right on schedule with the visits. She made it easy for me to relax and not worry about the dogs while we were away on vacation.
Kacey is absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my two pugs and provided fantastic communication throughout the entire stay. It’s such a relief knowing my pups are in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!
The amazing care Juno received, and subsequent gratitude we have towards Nathaniel and Alyssa, is hard to put into words. Juno had a medical emergency in our absence. Nathaniel and Alyssa deftly navigated keeping us informed, while simultaneously not over worrying us with things that were out of our control, thousands of miles away, with little to no communication services; we trusted their judgement implicitly with regards to Juno’s care. They will be our go-to caregivers providers for Juno,
I'm so glad I was able to find Jamie to take care of my girls. She did a great job. She kept me updated and in the loop. I love the pictures that they send. It makes me feel like I'm still *there* sorta. This is a wonderful business that I'm so glad I found. I'll definitely use Jamie again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Otsego 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Otsego choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Otsego with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
