“Ashlyn had great communication during Fendi’s stay and was very accommodating with me realizing I scheduled for the wrong dates. Fendi even has tummy problems and she made the chicken and rice for her. She did great with Fendi!”

“Holly was wonderfully accommodating to meet my needs with my GoldenDoodle fur baby. I had a brief need that would allow me to spend time with my local college student. Coming in from out of town, she allowed a Zoom introduction meeting, provided excellent communication and was flexible with my pickup schedule to allow me to spend as much time with my son as possible before departing. She provided photos throughout his brief stay and was reassuring with his medication requirements on schedule. I wish we had thought of this option earlier in the semester and will definitely seek out Holly in the future.”

About: I’ve been a pet owner since my early teens. I have a habit of spoiling my pets and I’ll likely spoil yours while in my care. 😃 I work full time outside of the home. During the summer months someone is home with the pets. I have a doggy door that is accessible for pets to use. My 2 dogs would love to have your pet as a play mate. I have a fenced yard and doggy door for use while I’m away from home. My 2 teenage children are around to give your pets extra love and attention too.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since a little girl. I enjoy the love and cuddles I get to share with all animals. I ensure your pet will receive love and care whenever they are in my hands!

I have two friendly fur babies who can be a companion if needed. I can also work with training and Crait training if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little girl and my friends family and neighbors all ask me to care for their fur babies I work part time but I still have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies and when I go to work I’ll either leave them out or put them up (depending on what the owner would like) I I understand that every animal is different and have different needs so I take care of them all differently whatever the owner says do I do like one I might have to walk every hour while the other I have to walk every 2 hours or feed one once a day and the other twice a day
About: I’ve been responsible for different breeds for over three decades. Friends and love ones have depended on me to walk and feed their fur babies. I’m currently working full time from home. I’m flexible, dependable, and reliable. I’m here to make your life easier. I’m able to walk, feed, and board. I have a fenced yard.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Pat home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Pat.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Pat sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
