About: For over nine years, I’ve provided consistent, thoughtful dog sitting, daily dog walking, and drop-in care for families who search for reliability and clear communication. Experience has taught me that pets thrive on routine, patience, and steady energy — and that’s exactly what I bring to every visit. My clients trust me to be dependable, attentive, and respectful of their time, home, and pets. I specialize in structured daily walks, recurring drop-ins for busy professionals, and long-term pet sitting support, creating stability and peace of mind, for both pets and owners. What You Can Expect: • Consistent, scheduled walk times • Secure leash handling and safe route awareness • Midday potty breaks and enrichment • Medication administration if needed • Photo updates + detailed Rover cards after every visit • Behavior observations (energy, appetite, stress signals Pet care is a daily part of my life, and I do my best to be fully available when needed. All pets in my care are treated with love and respect, matching their pace and needs to create a stress free and happy environment. I do my best to fulfill both pet and parent needs as far as scheduling is concerned. I’m especially experienced with rescue dogs and seniors. I understand how to read body language and adjust energy accordingly, creating a calm and reassuring experience for your pet. Safety is my top priority. I double-check doors, leashes, gates, and any instructions every visit. If I ever have a question, I communicate immediately — I don’t make assumptions when it comes to your pet. I also reinforce basic commands during walks if desired, helping maintain structure and good leash habits. When you're looking for a reliable weekday walker or recurring drop-in sitter, who takes scheduling seriously and values long-term consistency, I’d love to connect

“Aaron was very professional and took care of my kitty beyond my expectations. On top of that, he made sure my house and plants were well. I am very thankful that my kitty had someone safe, reliable, and dependable to take care of him. I am sure that my kitty will miss him. Whenever I have to be apart from my kitty, I will most definitely book with Aaron granted that he’s available.”
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.

About: I have came across every dog you can imagine! Because of my previous work in a dog daycare I have learned more than enough on how to handle them. I have had my own dog for 5 plus years and various other animals as well! I go to University three days a week but I'm mostly a homebody! I spend the majority of my time at home. In that time, I can do all kinds of enrichment activities with pets! Playtime, a walk, Swims in a kiddie pool! I do not have a fenced in yard but I always keep dogs on a leash when outside or I let them play in my large kennel fence/cage for a bit! I will always be there to keep an eye on them! And they'll never be out for more than 1-1.5 hours at a time.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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 .
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.
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.

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.
