“Abby did such a wonderful job feeding my cats and taking care of their needs. I enjoyed the photos and reports she sent. I’d highly recommend her and plan to rebook with her soon!”
About: While I am new to rover I have experience with my parents senior dog and administering medications as needed, I am a proud owner of a stubborn chihuahua and my schedule is flexible to meet the individual needs of my clients. I also have base access for our military families. Before booking with me you should be aware: I can accept bookings as little as 3 days before your trip, depending on availability. I do require a meet and greet beforehand with you and your pets to make sure everyone is comfortable and that it’s a good fit. A few things to know: 🐾 All pets behavior must match what is listed on their profile. 🐾 All pets must be potty trained. 🐾 I do not take puppies or kittens. 🐾 Any medications, dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, or special care needs need to be discussed before booking and demonstrated prior to stay. I really value keeping pets on their normal routine and making sure they’re comfortable while their owners are away. If you’re interested or have questions, feel free to message me on Rover. My schedule is flexible. I am a stay at home mom and am able to schedule care into my day. If there is anything I am unable to do I will be open and honest with you. Safety is my #1 priority in my home, I have a two small kids and a small dog of my own and would need to do a meet at greet prior to establishing care. I also have a late yard for pets to stretch their legs. In your home I can play with your pets, take them on a walk, and administer medications. I would need a meet and greet with your pet to ensure safety as well.
“Megan is so great with our two Great Danes. She always makes sure to update us with pictures and what the dogs get up to. She has really helped us out and is so flexible with scheduling which I sincerely appreciate. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: 🐾 About Me Pets aren’t just pets — they’re family. ❤️ I’m a military spouse and lifelong animal lover. Before being stationed in North Carolina, I spent six years working at an animal hospital in Rhode Island, where I worked as a veterinary assistant, cared for animals in the kennel, and provided dog-sitting services. I truly understand how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want for my own. Whether they need playtime, cuddles, a walk, or simply someone to keep them company, I’d love the opportunity to care for them while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like family in my care. 🐾❤️ I work from home, so I have the flexibility for daily visits with plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. I’ll care for your dogs and cats with patience, love, and lots of attention while you’re away. ❤️🐶🐱 Your home is your pets safe space, I'll treat it with the same care and respect I'll give your pets. During checkins, walks or playtime I will keep a close eye on their safety and follow your routines and instructions.
“This is the second time we’ve used Morgan, and Rover in general. Both times she was punctual, trustworthy, reliable, quick to communicate with, and we felt that our pets were in great care. We will absolutely continue to use her in the future if we need a pet sitter!”
“Thank you so much Audrey for watching Korra and Hobbes! They aren’t the most social so thank you for taking the time to send pictures and updates on them even when they were hiding haha. Highly recommend Audrey.”
“Sara was wonderful at communication, respecting the house rules and accountability. She got the initial drop in visit start time wrong, but she took accountability and fixed it right away. It's totally fine that mistakes happen, and Sara handled it very professionally. She also posted updates per drop-in with photos, and did call us when health concerns arise like we requested. I would highly recommend her service to others as a very trustworthy sitter. I would 100% book with her again!”

About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I currently am an owner of a rescue puppy that I have had since he was 2 months old! I love any breed, any age of dog or cat! I’m a law graduate that is awaiting my bar results, so I’m available throughout the day! I’m available for walks on the weekend and throughout the week. I have my own dog that is high energy so we go on multiple walks a day. I will make sure that your dog is safe on the sidewalk is available or throughout your neighborhood. With permission I know of greenways in the area or parks if the dog is allowed to travel with me.

About: I have had both cats and dogs almost my entire life and have worked as a Veterinarian Technician in an animal shelter and for a small family owned Vet. I strive to bring my knowledge and love for animals to my community so that pet care can be more affordable for regular people (such as myself). With the knowledge I have gathered from both working in office, having pets, sitting family pets, and my many years of pet grooming I hope to make my home a safe haven for your pet. We can also discuss natural treatments for pets which I've studied for a while now when it comes to specific breeds, mixed breeds, and their genetic ailments. I will soon be making all natural dog & cat treats for pets. I can also train pets through the treat/clicker system which has worked well for all of my pets and a plenty of others. If you would like for me to train them please let me know. Please contact me directly. I currently work from home and have a really flexible schedule. More than likely your pet will stay in the room with me (if they choose as i love cuddles as much as they might). Your pet can also hang out in the living room if they choose. They will go outside as many times as needed through the day until I get off at 5:30pm which then we will go for a walk. I also have a back yard. In which I will allow them to exert any additional energy throughout the day. I care for pets by paying attention to them and understanding the small hints they give indicating what they need at that time. I also create a potty schedule based on the dogs water/food intake to avoid accidents. I have no pets at the time so your pet will have my full attention. If permitted by the owner, I will groom, bathe, and train their pets.
About: I’ve taken care of, and had dogs in my home since I was born! We’ve had a range of different breeds from shih tzu to pitbull, rottweiler, golden retriever, and mixes! We’ve also had a range of cats, as well as helped with boarded horses at a nearby farm throughout my middle school and high school years! I started pet sitting prior to babysitting at a very young age! My large family is full of pet lovers, and I cannot get enough of them. I’m used to giving small or large dogs baths, feeds, long walks, and swim time if requested. I work a nursing schedule, so I have half of the days off during the week, and currently use that time to take my pup on long walks, spoil him, bathe him, take him to large fields to run out the zoomies, and I realized I have the time to take on more than my guy due to my open schedule! I can walk your dog, crate if necessary, use your backyard or a nearby pet park to play (if you’d like), I can take them swimming, feed them, trim their nails, or bathe them!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pikeville
Macy was truly amazing! This was our first time using rover to have someone drop in to check on our puppy and she truly was amazing! She provided updates and pictures each time she went and our little puppy was so excited to see her. She truly cares about the animals she is working with and treats them like they are her own.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pikeville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
