About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for many different kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, chickens, and even reptiles! I’m very responsible, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’ve watched numerous animals over the years and understand how important it is to treat every pet like family. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just a calm and caring environment, I’ll make sure they get the best care possible! I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets lots of attention, care, and playtime throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and pet sitting during most weekdays and weekends. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide a calm, loving, and clean environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. I also have experience around different types of animals and understand the importance of patience, supervision, and making pets feel secure.
About: I have over 35 years of experience caring for dogs, having grown up with them and always been around them. I specialize in taking dogs on long walks and engaging them in play, making sure they get the exercise they need. I've cared for dogs belonging to neighbors, friends, family members, and other clients, which has broadened my experience with different breeds and personalities. I work part-time and care for my elderly father, which gives me a flexible schedule for dog walking and weekend pet sitting. I lead an active lifestyle and love taking dogs on long walks and playing with them to keep them happy and healthy. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets at their home. I follow their routines and ensure they feel secure and cared for. Keeping pets safe is my top priority, whether I’m walking them or watching them at home.
About: Dogs have been my greatest love my entire life. I currently have two husky mixes of my own and know firsthand what it takes to care for high energy, strong breeds. I’ve raised puppies and work regularly with a professional trainer to continue their growth and development. I founded a premium dog lifestyle brand because I believe dogs deserve the best — and that’s exactly the standard I bring to every walk and visit. Your dog gets my full attention, consistent care, and photo updates throughout. I keep my client list small on purpose so every dog in my care gets exactly what they deserve. I only accept friendly dogs — this ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. I’m available for walks and visits on Saturdays and Sundays, as well as Friday afternoons starting at 3:30pm. I keep my schedule intentional and my client list small so every dog in my care gets my full attention — never rushed, never an afterthought. When I’m in your home or with your dog on a walk, your pet’s safety is my number one priority. I have two husky mixes of my own so I’m experienced handling strong, high energy dogs on leash. I’m attentive, calm, and always aware of my surroundings. I provide photo updates throughout every visit so you always know your dog is safe and happy. I only accept friendly dogs to ensure a safe experience for everyone.
About: Hi I'm Ally! I grew up surrounded by dogs and my love for them has only grown over the years! I currently have two at home, Luna, a 10-year-old rescue terrier mix, and Tobi, a 6-year-old Pembroke Welsh corgi. Altogether my extended family includes 6 dogs, 2 cats, and a few chickens. (You should see our house at Christmas!) I have lots of experience with both small and large dogs but I love all shapes and sizes. Playtime is a big deal at my house, but rest and relaxation are a must too. Cuddling is my absolute favorite thing! I love helping others, especially when they're dogs. I found Rover through my sister and sister-in-law, who have watched dogs themselves, so I've learned the ropes through their experiences. I'm currently working part-time and heading back to school soon. My schedule may shift once the semester starts, but I'll keep my calendar updated! As of right now my schedule is pretty open and I can provide care all weekdays, but weekends are a little tougher (but if really needed I can always try to move things around). My top priority is making sure you and your pets know they're in safe, loving hands. Bathroom breaks, meals, fresh water, and plenty of cuddles are always part of the routine. And if you're comfortable with it, my dog Tobi loves meeting new friends so we can always swing by for some playtime!
About: Hi there! So nice to “meet” you! I am a highly responsible and skilled pet owner and would be grateful to share the love with your pets! I have been pet sitting and farm sitting for over a decade. I’m a lifetime horse girl and am comfortable sitting for any type of animal, including horse, donkey, chameleon, bunny, etc.! I am trained in first-aid and competed nationally in 4H competitions with a focus in animal care. I personally have a special needs cat and a geriatric dog, so custom routines don’t phase me! We have plenty of those in this home - lol! I am a graduate degree holder with an excellent work history. I aim to offer your pet the best care and I come with integrity, responsibility, and love. After a recent career change, I find myself with a far more flexible work schedule! I am currently working in childcare and homecare for one family here in CT. I do not have children of my own, so I do not need to build school drop offs/pick ups into my petsitting schedule. I live in New London but am able to commute! I have reliable transportation of my own, so getting to my destination is no issue whatsoever. I am currently working on obtaining my PhD online during the evenings, so I am available to spend infinite cuddle time in the evenings! Overall I am extremely flexible. Boarding at my home is not an option at this time as I have strict landlords. I have pet/farmsat in various settings. Some owners have had fenced yards and some have lived in cities where walks are mandatory for potty breaks. The setting doesn’t bother me, I can work with the owner on setting a schedule for the pet.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 5 years. Since I became a dog mom of a tiny puppy, I have studied to be the best at taking care not only of my dog but also neighbors and family dogs. I’m currently studying part time so I would have time to take care of your pets and provide for everything they need in a safe and loving environment. I can take care of your pets at my home or your home depending on what’s best for you and me and which one works with our schedule.
“Tricia was so wonderful with my Bella. The care she gave was was fantastic Bella took to her which is a big compliment to her. I would definitely hire her again. And I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I have a big love for animals, especially dogs! I’ve had a dog, more specifically, a German Shepherd in my life since I was born. I recently moved back to Long Island from Arizona for college so I have a lot of free time lately! I would love to get to know your dog as I am very patient and loving toward animals ❤️ The extra money would be nice, but I’m really interested in getting to experience different types of personalities through the dogs that I will meet. I have watched my uncle’s German Shepherd for an extended period of time as well as my brother’s pitbull, my German Shepherd and also my miniature dachshund so I know what it’s like to have a full house! :) I hope you feel confident to choose me to watch your best friend I am currently finishing up my last semester of college as well providing services on Rover, so I have a lots of free time and very flexible hours :) I will take very good care of your furry friends, no matter what the task. Whether it be taking them for a walk, feeding them or absolutely anything else that they need! 😊

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.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
