“Kaylee was an absolute BLESSING! Our dog is a rescue and a little shy and nervous of new people, situations. She did AMAZING with him. We had several bad storms during her stay and she sat with him and snuggled him to soothe him throughout. She was in tune to his emotions and absolutely put him first in every situation without hesitation! He was a very happy boy and we could NOT have asked for a better experience! She also took very good care of the house and communicated with pics and videos every day. She is THE BEST!!”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and I got my first dog at 16. My dog is a mastiff mix, who was unfortunately a covid puppy, leaving her with little socialisation, causing her to be reactive around other animals. We have both been learning from each other everyday and I have been working with and training her since she was a puppy. Throughout the years she has gotten much more confident in herself; even having dog friends now and a younger puppy sister. I have also worked with senior dogs, adminstering medication as needed and helping assist with activities. I have worked with other animals as well, of all different sizes, so I am confident in my ability to read body language and take care of the dogs as needed I am a full-time college student, who is working part-time, and with a chaotic schedule, finding a job for a business is difficult due to my availibilty. I have several animals of my own, making spending time and taking care of them the highlight of my day. I love and treat animals just as the family they are, so when working with others animals, it feels like more of a reward than a job, which I feel is crucial when being a full-time college student and trying to make a living. All of my animals are family and are treated as such, so when taking care of others dogs, I treat them with the same mindset; providing care, love, fun and respect.
“We felt so at ease with Damien. They sent thoughtful updates throughout the day without us even needing to ask, which made traveling so much easier. Our pets were clearly well cared for and happy. We couldn't be more grateful. We definitely recommend and will book again.”
“Alex was absolutely wonderful with all 6 of my dogs! She was super responsive, sent me lots of pics, and kept me in the loop. I will definitely be booking her again for any future dog sitting needs!”

Everyday is different but we are easy adapt to what ever the day may bring. We have a large yard which my pups are trained to stay in, with being frenchies they are practically my shadows. For bedtime and when we are away from home they are create trained for their safety. I would follow what ever rules are set in place to take care of your fur babies as well I understand all the dangers pets can get into when not leashed, fenced in, or created for their safety.

I have taken care of other people’s dogs and cats. Where they are treated like my babies while here as well and get spoiled and lots of attention. I work from home and care for my grandmother so I will home with them at all times. I can administrate pills/medicine if needed. I am able to take the dogs out whenever it is needed. My babies are always by my side like shadows. I have a fenced in yard.My dogs love to play with friends dogs. The more the merrier!
About: I’ve always been around dogs. I had a beagle named Tank, and caring for him taught me the importance of patience, routine, and regular exercise. I also help take care of my sister’s dogs — Biscuit, a rescued pit/boxer mix, and Cheddar, an Australian Cattle Dog with tons of energy. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and mixed breeds, and I enjoy making sure dogs get the attention, movement, and care they need. Im inbetween jobs for a week or two so I have plenty of time durring the week to make sure your oets get the exercise they need Ill follow any instructions you leave for your pets. You know them best. Ill make sure they get extra care they need when their with me.
“Trisha was AMAZING! She stayed for a week with my 14 y/o dog and two cats. She sent me updates with photos throughout the day, was able to give my dog his medicine and was so attentive with playing with them. I highly recommend and would absolutely book her again.”
“Nina was awesome, she was always on time when we met up, took care of Roo and the house the same way i would. House was just the way we left it. Roo definitely made a new best friend and we found out house sitter for the future, she sent us pics and updates on how things were going and she even sent pictures of the snakes. Lol. Couldn't go wrong booking with Nina if you need a house sitter, will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: Hi! My name is MaKenzi and I have had pets as long as I can remember, I grew up with two pitbulls rescues, two smaller dogs, and an older cat that I assumed most of the care for as both parents worked full time jobs. Taking care of multiple animals at one time requires a lot of energy and the ability to organize the things they need well but I learned very quickly! Since I have lived on my own I have helped friends and coworkers with taking care of their beloved fur babies while they’re on vacation or just need an extra hand with their pets. In the last year I have rescued my own kitten and I have absolutely spoiled her with all of the patience, love, affection, and extra care that her heart could desire.
“Gervon in a tremendous Dogsitter. He was communicative, kind, and attentive. He accommodated the medical needs of our pets, too. He even cleaned the sheets before he left! We highly recommend Gervon.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember — I’ve had everything from hermit crabs and frogs to cats and dogs since I was a kid! Friends, family, and even my coaches have always trusted me to take them on a walk and petsit. I also worked on a farm where I helped bathe dogs and care for all kinds of animals. I’m comfortable giving medicine, trimming nails, and making bath time fun and easy. I treat every pet like my own — with lots of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, your pets will be in caring, reliable hands. I’m a full-time college student with a flexible schedule that allows plenty of time for pet care! On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I have morning classes but long breaks from 10:30–12:30 that are perfect for walks or potty breaks. Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m done with class by early afternoon, giving me lots of time for drop-ins, playtime, or longer walks. Weekends are completely open, so I’m very flexible for house sitting or extended visits. No matter what my day looks like, I always make time for animals — spending time with pets is honestly one of my favorite ways to take a break from studying! When I’m caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and bedtime routines — so your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I always keep their space clean and cozy. I’m comfortable giving medication if needed and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.
About: Not only do I love animals but I do provide feeding, ensuring a safe environment, lots of cuddles and playtime :). I have about 2-3 years worth of pet experience from dog walking, dog/cat sitting at clients home and boarding inside my home. I currently work full time during the day but I still make time to tend to my furry friends. During the week I am available for any service like dog walking, drop ins ( for potty breaks, to be fed, go on walks etc ) On the weekends I’m available for any service including overnight. If overnight is needed during the week please communicate that with me so I can try to accommodate as much as possible. I care for each pet by understanding their schedule. Understanding their routine in terms to feeding, exercise, potty walks etc is very important. One thing I like to do is observe and learn the pet. Once you take the time to learn you’re able to learn preferred activities/items and their routine.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover who has worked hands on in an animal shelter for many years. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with medical needs, behavioral challenges, and special routines. I offer drop in visits, dog walks, house sitting, and boarding, with light grooming available for an additional fee. I’m comfortable giving medications, following detailed care instructions, and taking the extra time needed to make your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For boarding, I do ask that dogs are cat tolerant. I have three medically challenged cats of my own and regularly foster cats and dogs, so my home is very animal focused and used to having furry visitors! Your pets will be treated like family, with plenty of attention, patience, and individualized care. 🐾❤️ Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life! I work as a Cattery Caretaker at an animal shelter, so I’m around animals and caring for them throughout my workday. Outside of work, I have my own cats and regularly foster cats and dogs, so I’m very used to making time for feeding, cleaning, medications, walks, enrichment, and giving each animal individual attention. Currently working Full time! I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely get outside time and play. I’m also comfortable following each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Perryville
Erica was truly beyond incredible—hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had for our two golden retrievers. From the moment we left, it was clear how genuinely loving and attentive she was; our dogs absolutely adored her. She went far above and beyond by sending frequent photo updates (without being asked), which gave us so much peace of mind and showed just how happy and comfortable they were. She stayed with them nearly the entire time, treating them like her own, and it made all the difference. You can’t fake that level of care—it was obvious in every interaction and update. We would recommend Erica to anyone without hesitation and will 100% be using her again.
Chandler and Bryan did a fantastic job taking care of our dog, Spinach. We were able to go on vacation with peace of mind that he was in good hands. We really appreciated the daily report and picture. We missed our boy but it made traveling much easier knowing that he was able to stay in our home with someone we trusted and he felt comfortable with.
We booked Sarah to stay & watch our two dogs for a weekend away and she was perfect! I got picture/video updates a couple of times a day and she kept me up to date on how things were going throughout the day. She was a fantastic house guest as well - she even did her dishes, gathered her bedding/towels, and made sure the space was tidy. Communication, responsiveness, and overall experience was 10/10 for us! We will definitely be using Sarah again!
Leaving our dog, Coco, for a week is never easy—especially since he requires extra care—but Kayla made the entire experience so much easier. She stayed in our home, kept his routine consistent, and handled all of his medications and supplements with great attention and care. Knowing Coco was able to remain in his own environment while being looked after so thoughtfully gave us real peace of mind. Kayla was dependable, communicative, and genuinely compassionate, which truly showed in how well Coco was cared for. We’re incredibly grateful for the level of care she provided and would absolutely trust her again. We highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
This as our third time using Suzann in a short period of time. I cannot say enough about her. I was having surgery and needed her on short notice. Suzann was very accommodating in meeting our needs. If you need a house/pet sitter you can count on, contact Suzann.
Carly was great. Stayed an overnight with our four dogs and was amazing. She came to the house twice to do a meet and greet. One of ours has an issue getting to know people. Carly was super patient with him and by the end of the first visit he was in love with her. Highly recommend her!

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.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Perryville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Perryville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Perryville 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!
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.
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
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.
