“Zachary took excellent care of my cat while I was out of state. I'm quite particular about who enters my home or cares for my animals. Zach was extremely communicative, upfront, and timely. Loved the photo updates, and not once did I worry about my cat while I was on vacation. Will book him every time. Thanks, Zach!”
“So pleasant and sweet! Kaylee kept me informed throughout her visits and took great photos! I appreciated the open communication and positivity. I felt very comfortable knowing my fur baby was in great hands!”
“Nan was great! On time, great with communication, and we loved all the pictures she sent. She stayed longer than we asked trying to get Denny to come out of his shell and play a little. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and understand what it takes to care for them at every stage. I’ve also fostered dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes, helping them adjust, feel safe, and find loving homes. I am an active person so I can make sure to move around for your pets’ needs. I am currently a college student looking for work and animal love while at school. I have a flexible schedule with availability for your pets needs. Safe, loving, and secure environment with close supervision and lots of care. I treat every pet like family and follow all care instructions very closely.

“Ben did a wonderful job managing our critters. We were very pleased with his work and will definitely hire him again. He kept us updated while we were away and we didn't have to worry about their safety, care, watering, or feeding. We highly recommend Ben.”
About: Attention to detail and understanding that each pet has unique needs is very important to me. I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I prioritize clear communication by sending regular updates such as photos/videos and check-ins with owners. I’m also patient with puppies who need consistency and routine. Being gentle with senior dogs who may need extra attention, slower paced care, or administration of medication during my visit. My goal is to help every pet feel at home and give owners peace of mind. I am working toward a long term career in animal care and value every opportunity to build experience while giving pets the compassionate attention they deserve. Meeting with you and your pets are a requirement before I can provide my services. I believe safety and trust are a crucial part to our professional relationship. When caring for pets in your home I do my best to keep their routine consistent so they feel safe and happy. I will provide updates and communication during my time with them, in addition to leaving your home in the same condition as when I arrived.
“Julia is awesome!!! She took great care of our cats, including administering medication to three of them. She is communicative, neat, and reliable, and she has a knack with animals. We look forward to working with her again!”
About: Have had pets since I was a child, over 20 years. I am a current pet and livestock owner. I have dogs, goats, bunnies and chickens. I am available most week days and every other weekend. I can be flexible, but it would have to work around my full time job. I am willing to drop in and walk your dog for as long as you'd like. Will play catch, ball and run them when possible.
“Karen was absolutely wonderful with my two cats. She stayed in my house with them for over a week during Christmas and New Years, was a great communicator, kept me updated with photos, and I felt very reassured leaving my pets with someone so responsible. Upon my return everything was tidy, the cats were well fed with extra food and water laid out, and litter boxes cleaned. It was a great experience and so wonderful having her take care of them while I was away so I could relax and enjoy my vacation worry free.”

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.

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 .
