About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, giving me a lifelong love and understanding of what makes our canine companions so special. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of dog sitting for many friends and family members, providing everything from energetic playtime to calm companionship. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved! I’m currently a college student therefore I am not going to school in the summer. My schedule is very flexible no matter the day or time! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’ll follow any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime preferences, and any medications or special care needs. I’ll also make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and interaction while you’re away. In addition to pet care, I’ll keep your home tidy and treat it with the same respect I would my own. My goal is to ensure both you and your pet feel completely at ease during my visits!
About: A cozy home away from home. I've raised three puppies, cared for two rescue dogs, and fostered pets who needed a loving home. I have plenty of land for dogs to run and play, with a cozy indoor space to relax afterward. I’ve also cared for senior dogs and truly love animals of all ages. I’m available 24/7, including weekends. Whether it’s an emergency, last-minute meeting, or family event, you can call or message anytime—I’m always here to support you and your pet I care for pets in my home, where they’re treated like part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to run. Inside, pets can relax in a cozy, home-style environment. I have two friendly, playful dogs—a puppy and a one-year-old—both crate trained, with a playpen available if needed. Pets are welcome on the couch. After outdoor time, I wipe down paws and coats to keep everyone clean and comfortable. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, special needs, medications, and any specific requests. I respect that every pet and owner has unique care requirements, and I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care at all times.

“Overall, satisfactory. I booked one or two days prior to leaving for a 20 hour trip and needing drop in visits for my pups. Piper responded in less than 5 minutes and was able to come over to greet the pups before I left out of town. She made sure the pups had enough time running around and play time while visiting. She took photos of the time they shared and was very respectful to me and my time while also checking on my trip. I believe the pups had a great time too! I highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have had five of my own, along with helping care for and train many others over the years. I'm currently a cat dad to a senior stray and was also a horse dad to a senior rescue horse, so I've had experience caring for animals of all different ages and activity levels. I'm also a personal trainer and live a very active lifestyle. I love running and hiking, so I'm comfortable keeping up with high-energy dogs that need longer walks and plenty of exercise, while also being happy to slow things down for senior pets.

I care for pets in their own home where they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. For drop ins and pet sitting, I'll follow their normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention. For dog walks, I'll match the walk to your dog's age, energy level, and needs. I'll always follow your instructions, keep safety a priority, and send pictures and updates so you know how your pet is doing.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Peoria
This was my first time using a service like Rover. Shelby was very patient and helpful with making sure I and my dogs were set and safe while I was away. She was very attentive to my pets and gave them lots of love. Although my dogs are on the lazy side, she still made the effort to try to play and give them some stimulation during the 30 minute drop in's.
Kat was awesome! She came over for a meet and greet, followed all of my animals’ needs, took the cutest pictures, and communicated great through the whole process for a drop-in visit! 100 percent rebooking if we need her again! (Side-note, she didn’t let my dog’s jumping stop her from coming over and providing care, which is a plus!!)
Holly was absolutely amazing! We were really nervous about leaving our fur babies, but she quickly put us at ease. She showed up exactly when she said she would and followed every single direction given. She loved on our babies and sent lots of pictures and kept us up to date. We will definitely book with her every time we have to go out of town!
This was my first time using Rover, although I have several friends who have used it and had great experiences. I truly struck gold with Audra! From the very beginning, she was communicative and responsive throughout the booking process, which immediately put me at ease. My dog, Duke, is an anxious boy, but Audra’s calm, patient, and sweet demeanor won him over right away. Seeing how comfortable he was with her gave me complete confidence that he would be well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Audra to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their fur baby. I will definitely be booking with her again in the very near future!
Alyssa is awesome with my rescue girl, Twinkle! Twink is anxious and cautious around new people, but Alyssa quickly won her over, and she loves her afternoon walkies with her new friend. Alyssa is dependable and very responsive to messages and texts. When Twink is with Alyssa, I know that she is being well taken care of and having fun. 10/10 recommend Alyssa!
Overall, an amazing person very dry great communication went above and beyond my dogs were happy when I came home and I can see through the camera that I have at my house that she exercised the dogs by taking them to the park played with them and gave them great care
Kathy is wonderful and all my pets love her! She was very reliable, easy to book with, very kind, and reminded me of a loving family member stopping by instead of a stranger I found on an app. I would absolutely book with her again in the future! You can truly tell the love she has for animals, it shows in both her personality and in the interactions she has with your pets.
David! Thank you so much for all your help on taking care of my pets. David helped me at a very short notice, twice, back to back days. He was very respectful, kind, and followed all instructions. He was very sweet with my pets and sent me updates throughout the day. I’ll definitely be booking again

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Peoria 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 .
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.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
