About: Growing up I do not remember a moment that my family did not have an animal in our household. I used to always want to spend my time with animals and always had that option. My mom was just as obsessed with animals as I was. There was a point in time that we had two cats and five dogs in the household. I love the connection that people can build with animals and the care that there is for each other. With all of these animals in our house, I got pretty accustomed to washing, feeding, walking, playing, etc with them. My stepdad bought a Rottweiler puppy when I was a teenager, so I was able to watch how he trained the dog and the phases they go through as puppies. Although, I do not own an animal of my own at the moment, I always enjoyed the times when my life had an animal in it. I would greatly enjoy to help others contribute to taking care of their animals with the extra time I have. I currently work part-time as a server with a flexible, open schedule. I would love to spend my free time giving love to all animals. I have a schedule that would allow me to be available to give care to your animals with walks, attention, feeding, and much more! Currently, I live in an apartment complex that does allow pets, but do not have any of my own at the moment. I have dog sat my family's animals for over the past few years, dealing with multiple dogs at once, cats, senior dogs. I would love to expand beyond my family's animals.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I know that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, so I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to following your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. This is my only job at the moment so I am very flexible. Soon, though I may do some substitute teaching but that is a nice job too because it’s also very flexible. I care for every pet according to their individual routine and needs. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, and I’ll follow any specific instructions you provide, including medications, feeding schedules, or other special care.
“I had a last minute trip come up and Emily was able to care for my kitty. My cat is not social but Emily takes such great care of her and always hangs out for the full time just in case my cat changes her mind and wants some pets. Emily also sends the best updates and photos each day:) She is professional and trustworthy and great communicator. I will definitely be seeking out her services again!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, and turkeys, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all kinds from a young age. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, gaining experience with everything from puppy potty and crate training to feeding, walking, bathing, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time within my days to love and care for your fur babies while your're unable to! I have a fenced yard with lots of other friendly dogs that are always eager to have another playmate! Between crate training, potty training, or walks with your pup I am able and willing to do it all!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for several years, our sweet dog of 13 years recently passed, so I am looking to help provide care for other dogs. I am available to come and play with your dog and let them out as well as provide their food and water for them, as well as take walks or whatever your typical routine looks like. I will care for your dog however you like for them to be cared for, from taking them on walks, to dropping off at the groomers your pup will be well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care and raised dogs for over 43years. My wife and I have always had an average of 2 dogs and a cat for 40 years. I’m very experienced in potty training and basic commands along with at side walk training. Experienced in caring for elderly and mobility restricted dogs I am newly retired and live taking my dogs for walks and playing in the yard with them. I am normally at home all day and enjoy the exercise they bring me. We have a wooded large, study fenced backyard with ample space to roam and play. Typically walks are twice a day and last for 30-45 minutes. While I allow pets on the furniture, I reinforce the owners preferences to ensure consistency. Experienced with medication administration if needed
About: I raised my first dog to a healthy, ripe 17 years of age. My new pup is a rescue and I have helped her become an obedient (mostly), well-mannered good girl. We take walks everyday, even when it’s cold. I have patient and a calm demeanor which I believe most dogs need when interacting with a new person. I work during the day M-F most of the time. I am free in the evenings and on weekends. Currently working part time so my schedule is a bit more open. I have an energetic puppy that loves to run around at the dog park at my apartment complex. I typically crate my dog when I’m not home. Okay with having dogs free at client’s house if that what the pup is most comfortable with.
“We are so grateful! We have 100% peace of mind that our sweet Golden, Sully, is in great hands when Lillianna comes to stay. She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and communicative. ❤️”


About: Animals have been a lifelong part of my life. I grew up around farm animals and have owned and cared for dogs ranging in size from a Toy Poodle to a Great Dane. I also raised a puppy through the Leader Dogs for the Blind puppy-raising program in Michigan and have experience training dogs in both obedience and agility. I previously worked as a veterinary assistant at two veterinary clinics, which gave me valuable hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide variety of personalities, ages and needs. I especially love learning about canine behavior and training and am always reading and continuing to learn. I’m currently working with my daughter as she learns about showing dogs with the goal of becoming an AKC Junior Handler. Most importantly, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m attentive to each animal’s individual personality and routine, and I prioritize safety, communication and making pets feel comfortable while their people are away. I’m happy to provide photos and updates during every visit. I have a flexible daytime schedule that allows me to provide walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m especially available during weekday mornings and afternoons, making me a great fit for pets who need a midday walk, potty break, meal, medication, playtime or companionship while their owners are at work or away. I also offer evening and weekend availability when my schedule allows and am happy to discuss recurring weekly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my first priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s normal routine, temperament, handling preferences and any special instructions before providing care. During visits, I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes and other potential safety concerns and will always follow your care instructions closely. My previous experience working as a veterinary assistant has made me particularly observant of changes in an animal’s behavior or well-being. I also understand the trust involved in allowing someone into your home and will treat your home, privacy and belongings with respect. I provide dependable communication and am happy to send photos and updates after each visit so you know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve spent 7+ years caring for pets of all kinds, taking the time to learn each one’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra care. I work a full-time job from 10–5 on weekdays, so I schedule pet care around my work hours. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, playtime, or visits. When I’m with pets, I give them my full attention and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for, even with my regular work schedule. I provide attentive, patient care whether I’m at your home or mine. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. If pets are in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family, giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and play. I always prioritize their happiness, health, and comfort.

About: Hi! I’m Hailey, a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I have experience with puppy training and am trained in dog CPR. As a former collegiate athlete, I’m also happy to keep up with even the most energetic pups! My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. As someone who works from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With the flexibility of my schedule, I have the privilege of being available for your pets throughout the day. This means I can provide them with the attention, care, and companionship they need. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, or administering any necessary medications, I can be there to tend to their needs promptly. Additionally, I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine for pets, so I ensure that their feeding and exercise schedules align with their usual habits. Rest assured, your furry companions will receive dedicated care and supervision, as I am always present and ready to meet their needs. The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parkville
Tyler has been great with Castiel! He keeps me updated during every visit, which gives me a lot of peace of mind, and he’s been incredibly flexible whenever plans or timing have shifted. The whole experience has honestly been so easy and completely pain-free. I really appreciate knowing Castiel is in good hands, and I would absolutely recommend Tyler for both walks and drop-in visits.

I would give Shannon 10 stars if I could! She went above and beyond taking care of our girls. She even had a last minute emergency and was still able to complete the booking. She really paid attention to our pets behavior and acted according. She communicated very well and sent lots of pics. I will definitely be using her again in the future!

Casey was great I’ll use her again. The only complaint I have is the Rover app is not user friendly to me. It had me keep going back to do insurance and so many places for each day and hr of the day to specify everything. I’m glad for the service Rover supplies and we need but they need to simplify in this day and age things should be easy not hard going forward. Life is hard enough

This was the first time I used Rover and Maria did not disappoint! She was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend booking with her! I did 3 drop ins a day while I was out of town and my boys got plenty exercise and she even brushed one of them! If I could give 100 stars I would!

Amanda is an amazing sitter! She went above and beyond for our Luna, sending updates and pics, and even dealt with a crazy windstorm that took down our gazebo! Her care and attention to our home and pup were top-notch. We're so grateful for her! Highly recommend on Rover. 5 stars isn't enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🐾"

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- 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.
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 Parkville 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.

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 .
