About: I have had pets my entire live and have had two dogs of my own recently that I have had the pleasure of training and trail running with. I love pets and being outdoors. My family, friends, and community have relied on me to take care of their homes and pets since I was young. I would love to spend the time getting to know your pets! I am very flexible at the moment so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and take them for nice walks! I am familiar with walking dogs of all sizes and I feel comfortable crating your dogs and cleaning up after any and all accidents if necessary
About: My life has included dogs for as long I can remember and I have always seemed to read them intuitively, including “problem dogs” that others have difficulty interacting with. I have extensive personal dog handling and grooming experience over the past 25 years and have owned up to 6 dogs at a time. I currently have a 10 year old Chihuahua-mix named Kitty but I have experience training and caring for Border Collies, American Pit Bull Terriers, Staffordshire Terriers, Irish Terriers, Wire Fox Terriers, Poodle mixes, Great Danes, and a Wolf-German Shepherd hybrid. I am knowledgeable about canine body language and how to remain calm around anxious/fearful/aggressive dogs as well as how to redirect dogs from potential conflicts. I own and operate an event-services business which runs primarily on the weekends, allowing me to offer dog care Monday through Friday and on certain weekends as available. I am able to care for dogs according to their owner’s needs and requests. This may include administering medication, changing diapers, feeding, walking or just spending time with.

I have plenty of time to fully attend to your dogs every need- plenty of exercise and attention! I have lots of availability to fit in all the needs of your dog that they may need! Morning, afternoon or nightly walks, play or over night care. My pets are greatly cared for in my home, I would also treat your fur baby as one of my own in your home or mine
About: I have 45 years experience training and caring for dogs and other animals. I worked 17 years in animal control. I owned a pet store for 8 years. I have cpr training for dogs. I am a retired animal control officer who loves spending time with all animals. I also run, hike and walk daily if your dog is energetic.I visit my mother in a memory care facility and would gladly bring a well behaved pup for lots of love if you are comfortable with this. I have a fenced yard. I will play, walk and spend quality time with your dog. I can hike or run with your dog too if they enjoy this.
About: I have personally had five family rescue dogs since the 1980s. The majority taken in from puppy stage up to 4 years of age. Most stayed with us through their senior years. I am retired from work and am available with a reliable vehicle equipped with pet crates for safe transportation or can travel to your home as necessary. I can care for your pet in my home on a 1-acre lot on a private road/area. Or, I can travel to your home as necessary.
“I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Caitlin. I needed a last-minute drop in as our plans had suddenly changed and I’m so happy we chose Caitlin. She was responsive, flexible, prompt, and catered to about 14 special requests. She kept us updated during her entire stay and sent ADORABLE pictures and videos. If you’re looking for a responsible, kind, dog-loving person to help you out, look no further! Our dogs LOVED her, too!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting regularly for the past three years for three wonderful families! I have experience from energetic labs to mellow mixed-breeds dogs and cats! I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic routines, and giving lots of love and attention! As someone who loves being outdoors, I enjoy long walks and making sure dogs get plenty of movement and adventure. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to get to know their quirks to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos (as much or as little as you prefer) so you can have peace of mind but also know your pet is in good hands. 😇 I'm currently working as a barista and a server, so my schedule can be very flexible and I typically request time off to make time for your pets! I can care for your pet in your home! I feel this is most comfortable for pets as opposed to getting to know a new person and environment simultaneously.
About: Hi! I’m Phylicia. I’ve been around animals my whole life—dogs, cats, reptiles, you name it—so taking care of them has always been second nature to me. I also have pets of my own, so I totally understand how important they are to your family. As a teacher, I have a consistent schedule that allows me to be available in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, holidays, and during school vacations. I’m flexible, reliable, and easy to communicate with—qualities that pet parents really value in a sitter. When I’m caring for pets, I treat them like part of the family. I pay close attention to their needs and can quickly recognize if something seems off. Whether it’s sticking to a specific feeding routine, giving meds, or just making sure your pet feels safe and loved, I’m all in.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and they are truly the best thing to ever happen to me. I am often called upon to dogsit when family & friends go out of town, I have lots of experience house/dog sitting and when the owners return they always are impressed with how their dog and home were taken care of. I have a rescue dog named Finley who is my whole world so you can rest assured I will treat your dog as my own and spoil them with lots of cuddles and belly rubs. I’m a teacher so weekends I’m always free and am usually always with my dog. I’m available most afternoons for drop in visits or to take your dog for a walk. Summers are also a time when I am completely free and would love to be able to care for your dog(s) while you enjoy a summer vacation! I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly hound mix dog to keep your dog company. She loves to play and wants to be friends with every dog we meet. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.
“Jackie was wonderful with my 11yo Siberian Husky, Bella! From the moment they met, Bella welcomed her with kisses. She was very prompt and attentive to Bella’s needs for relief and exercise while I was at work all day. We’ve moved to Florida for the winter but look forward to seeking the ease and security of Rover.com in the future.”
About: I love dogs so much! I’ve always had dogs since I was young! I currently have a dog, his name is Iroh and he is 1 years old. He is a handful but I love him so much! I’ve given dogs medication so if that is required I got it! I can’t wait to meet your dog(s)! I work full-time so this is my part time job but that doesn’t mean I give part time energy to your dogs! Your dog will get the most energy from me! I live in an apartment and my complex has a fenced in dog park for all dogs and my dog loves it! So your dog will have space to run around and have fun! And in your home I will do whatever I am told to do!
About: I have been in the caring business since my teenage years - babysitting my younger siblings, caring for my family dog, running a summer enrichment program for at risk youth, caring for horses at a dude ranch and a western suburbs farm, minding many friends' dogs, and wrangling my own two senior dogs - brother and sister, now 14 years old. (But, so rambunctious for their first 10+ years). I love dogs and will care for your dog just as you would. One of my dogs is now blind and the other requires daily subcutaneous fluids so I am willing and able to help out with any of your pet's special needs as well..... I know how stressful it can be to ensure a routine is kept. Pet first aid and CPR certified. I am currently on a full time job hunt in marketing analytics and very available (with notice) to care for your dogs most days and evenings as I can search and do freelance work remotely. Depending on your dog's needs I can usually provide bathroom breaks every 4 hours in between errands, etc. My calendar will be updated to show days I plan to be away. At this time, I can care for pets in my client's home. I do need to bring my dogs for the overnight portion of the stay but will keep them separate in a room/space of your choosing during the evening (and on bedroom floor at night). They are very dog friendly just very sleepy and do well snoozing someplace quiet.
About: I may not have a bunch of years of pet care like others on this app, but one thing I know is that I truly LOOVE pets. I’m patient, dependable, and eager to learn while giving pets the attention, affection, and respect they deserve. I grew up with 2 dogs and 3 cats and I can confidently say I loved them and deeply cared for them while I had them. Now I wish to spread my love and care to other pets.❤️ Im available everyday after 5pm until August 22nd; after that, I’ll be available everyday any time after 10am until September 4th which is the day I go back to college. My schedule will significantly change after that happens. I take safety and trust very seriously. I follow pet owners’ instructions carefully, keep environments clean and calm, and make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and treated with patience and respect at all times.
About: I love all kinds of pets and am local to cape cod. I am an engineer in Falmouth and would love to watch your pets while you are away. I have had dogs for 15 years and have watched cats for weeks at a time. I work in falmouth so I can come home on lunch breaks and stay full time other than that. I normally walk dogs in the morning before work and on lunch breaks, then take them to the park after work. I will work with pet parents to come up with a plan that works for each pet! I have a big house and a nice big yard. I live near a big field and the beach they can go to as long as its not the high tourist season.

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.
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 Pocasset 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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.
To find sitters in Pocasset with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
