“Aaron was great with my cats and communicated effectively. He did an amazing job with keeping up with their schedule and letting me know what he did that day. I highly recommend him.”
“Jenn did such a fabulous job. She dropped in a few days before to meet my dogs which was amazing since my doodle doesn’t warm up easily to strangers. She updated me and sent photos during the entire process. My doodle ended up loving her! My mind was at ease knowing they were in such good hands! I highly recommend her! Thank you Jenn!”
“Katherine has been doing awesome with Ranger! Shows up on time and makes sure that he has food and water and plays with him during visits to keep his mind entertained while I am at work!”
“Looove lilly! She came visit us to get to know the cats before we left. This was my first time using rover and also our first time leaving our cats after moving to a new place so I was pretty anxious. But she took such great care of my babies that I didn’t have to worry about them while we were on vacation. She made sure our cats trusted her and was so patient with them. She kept me updated and love all the pictures she sent me. TY LILLY 🤍”
About: I’ve had many pets throughout my life, so I understand their needs and personalities. I’ve also spent a lot of time dog sitting and walking for friends and neighbors, making sure every pet gets plenty of love and attention. Your dog will be in caring and experienced hands with me! I’m a last year college student so between my classes can be there to play with your pets and love on them as needed. I do not provide care in my home but will follow clear instruction given to me by owners when providing care within their home! I will respect each owner.
About: I have been taking care of animals since a child. I also have had pets of my own, currently I have a dog. I have taken care of my neighbors pets before as well as family members. I currently have a lot of time on my hands. I am online at college so my schedule is pretty flexible. My days are pretty much free for a while. I live in an apartment so at home sitting wouldn’t work for the time being. I do not mind coming to pet sit in the comfort of the owners home.
About: I am the definition of a pet lover!! All my life I have owned all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, lizards, frogs, snakes, and birds. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12, I made money as a young teenager by passing out flyers in my neighborhood offering walks and play sessions. I’ve cared for many different breeds and sizes, and as an adult I have raised and trained 2 puppies, a Pit Bull and German Sheppard, and adopted four seniors. I currently sit for family and close friends regularly. I have a 9 year old chihuahua mix named Tucker and a chameleon named Skittles I am currently working full time but I am off Thursday-Saturday and off at 2 on the days I do work so I am available and time that I am not at work! I will treat your furry family members the same way that I treat mine, my chihuahua Tucker lives his life like a king! He sleeps in the bed with me and my wife every night and we have a fenced in dog park at my apartments so he gets to run around and play fetch and then when we are done he expects his massage session with my impact massage gun, we also have a grooming station on site so he very much enjoys his weekly baths. At my dads when I pet sit for him I take his German Sheppard Elsa on long walks and play hide and seek with her in the house(she always wins) My sister has a Golden retriever puppy so when he isn’t sleeping he is wanting to play chase and fetch in the back yard.
About: I have experience with many different dog breeds. I am also very familiar with administering medicine, dental care, novice grooming, and complicated dietary needs. I also have experience in light obedience training. I currently work part time Monday and Tuesday, but the rest of the week I have all the time in the world to check in walk and take care of your beautiful fur-babies. I have 2 delightful little dogs one of which is extremely high energy and is crate trained. I am used to dogs with behavioral issues. I am well versed in any medical issues that may arise.
About: Hi, I’m Trinity! I recently earned my MBA and am a former collegiate track and field athlete. I’ve loved animals my whole life and originally studied biology with plans to attend veterinary school. I grew up with a family dog I was very close to, and after losing them, I became even more passionate about giving pets love, patience, and care. As an adult, I got my own dogs, Scooby and Nola, and I treat every pet I watch with that same level of love and protection. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or companionship, I make sure they feel safe and happy. New to Rover? Use my link for $20 off your first booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/trinb48610 I provide loving, reliable pet care by feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while owners are away I treat every pet like my own.

“Carly is the best!! She was very responsive and accommodating in the booking process, and during her visits she was so loving to my cat Dill - including lots of snuggles and play time!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 13-year-old dog, so I understand the care, patience, and attention they need at every stage. I also worked as a Canine Coach in a professional dog daycare, where I supervised group play, monitored behavior, and ensured the safety of multiple dogs at once. Through both personal and professional experience, I’ve developed a strong ability to read dog body language, stay calm in different situations, and create a safe, positive environment. I treat every dog like my own, whether that means matching a high-energy pup or providing extra care for older dogs. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and attentive care so pet parents feel confident and at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available at a variety of times, including daytime, evenings, and weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care. As I pursue a future full-time Monday–Friday position, I plan to continue pet care with a strong focus on evening and weekend availability, while still offering additional flexibility when possible. I’m committed to being reliable, communicative, and maintaining consistent, high-quality care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I focus on providing attentive, individualized care tailored to each pet’s needs and routine. During walks, I prioritize safety, proper leash handling, and making sure dogs get both physical activity and mental stimulation at a pace that suits them. For drop-in visits, I ensure pets are well cared for by refreshing food and water, providing playtime or enrichment, and giving them attention and companionship. I also carefully monitor behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being during each visit, and I always respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions. I make sure to communicate clearly with pet parents, including updates and photos if desired, so they feel confident and connected while they’re away.
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Palmyra 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 Palmyra 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 Palmyra with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
