About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! My family bred Pugs for over 10 years, and I’ve personally owned and cared for animals for more than 35 years. Over the years, I have owned Pugs, Labs, Bernese Mountain Dogs, an Italian Greyhound cats, bunnies, fish, and turtles — so I think it’s safe to say I’m a true animal lover! What sets me apart is the experience and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, whether they’re a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a senior pet who needs extra patience and attention, or a shy cat who takes a little time to warm up. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, give lots of attention and affection, and provide the patience and care they deserve. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your beloved pets are in caring and experienced hands! My work schedule can vary from week to week, with workdays ranging anywhere from 12-hour to 8-hour days, so I don’t have a set weekly routine. However, I do have flexibility throughout the week and will do my best to accommodate the days and times that work best for you and your pets. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I’m happy to work with you ahead of time to coordinate a schedule that provides consistent and reliable care. Communication is very important to me, so I’ll always do my best to plan around my work schedule and make sure your pets get the attention, care, and companionship they need while you’re away. I’m happy to care for pets either in my home or in their own home, depending on the service and what works best for the pet and their family. I believe pets are most comfortable when their normal routines are maintained, so I do my best to follow their usual feeding, walking, playtime, medication, and bedtime schedules. When caring for pets in their home, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. If pets stay in my home, they become part of the family during their visit. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats, and other animals, and I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel at home. Most importantly, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own and want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident while they’re apart.
“So my weekend plans came together at the last minute and my regular dog sitter was booked. So I gave Rover.com a try and booked Samantha K. and it was an excellent experience. First, I'm grateful that Samantha fit me into her schedule. She was great in getting to the house, getting our lab mix out for potty breaks, playtime, and back in for meal time. I would definitely recommend Samantha K. Pricing was very reasonable and the process so convenient.”

Dana was simply amazing. She was easy going and very helpful and a perfect fit for our elderly cat King Henry who needs some company while we are away. She even tried to help him get a knot out of his tail as he is prone to matting. We absolutely hope she will want to visit with him again!

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 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.
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
