“Very thoughtful and appreciative of how she watches my boys! She was even able to befriend my extremely timid cat which shows just how cool of a person she is. My boys love it so far every time Taylor watches them!”
“Conecia was awesome! She took great care of my dog and sent me updates as requested. She gave my dog the love she wanted and needed! Was very flexible and responsive too! Would definitely book with her again.”
About: I’ve personally loved and cared for numerous fur and scaly children throughout the vast majority of my life, whether it’s reptiles, dogs, or cats, I have owned and loved each and every one of them. I currently have 2 dogs, a highly energetic and jumpy Black Labrador Retriever Mix (Rutt Butt), and an equally energetic, but 26x more friendly and goofy Pittie Mix (Roofie Doofie). I also have two cats, one loves people and dogs, and the other just loves me and the dogs (terrified of new people). I also have a male Bearded Dragon named Groot, and a baby Sulcatta Tortoise named Oogway! That is the list of who I currently love and live with. I have been working with my Lab and Pittie mix with behavior training since the since the Rutt was a puppy and since I adopted Rufus in early 2025. I’ve consistently kept them structured with simple high energy break commands, long wait, increased food/treat drive, and all-around confidence and morale boost to any low self-esteem. I am currently working on Rover part time, so I will be devoting my days off from work to your pet(s) and their needs. I am wanting to grow this into my own personal side-business as there is nothing that I consider better, than a well-trained pet under high stress environments. I have 2 overly and aggressively friendly dogs. Rutt and Rufus are some of the biggest sweethearts when it comes to meeting new people as well as new furry friends. Rutt has lived with cats his entire life, and Rufus took a bit, but he is finally completely indifferent to life with cats and loves to play with everyone! All owners and their dogs during boardings, or play dates, have to plan for atleast a 30min to an hour meet and greet and orientation so that both yours and my needs are met during visits. I am always in control during the situations, such as I am ever-vigilant of slight non verbal cues and projections yours and my pets put off in order to blossom a happy and stimulating and playful environment. I currently have a house in the Burton area with a beautiful and quaint neighborhood loop well away from all major highways and roadways. I also have about 20-30 acres that are heavily wooded with some managed trails throughout behind my house that I will be more than happy to explore with your pets taking them through for enrichment and training. I will also be in total touch with you as an owner, and me as a sitter. I know that I would love to have pictures and videos of my pet’s life throughout their day with someone new, and I would be more than willing to send you pictures and videos through Snapchat, text, or however you prefer. I encourage the youth and playfulness of each pet and I hope they can achieve their potential. Pet care is my daily and weekly routine. I have two dogs, two cats, a bearded dragon, and a sulcatta tortoise. Each of my wonderful animals have different daily needs and requirements that I strive to meet so they can be the happiest animals and meet their full potential. I have 0.5acres of open backyard that is pushed up to about 20 acres of woodlands directly behind my house. I take my own animals on daily enrichment walks through the forest to aide them in their confidence and better their motor skills.
“Stephanie is truly a godsend. Both my cats are seniors, and need a little extra attention. She is so attentive, always offering to go above and beyond, giving me such detailed reports on them when I’m away. It puts my mind at ease knowing that she’s taking care of my most precious little ones. She even reached out to check in on them after it had been a little while since my last trip. She really cares about animals, it shows in all she does.”
“Clare is the best! My cats love her and they get super excited when she comes to care for them! Would 1000% recommend to someone who worries about their babies and needs a trust worthy person.”
“Elaine did another excellent job looking after my two cats! She even took extra time to get to know the shy one and to clean up a few unpleasant messes from the not-so-shy one.”
“Allison was very thoughtful, kind, and thorough with learning about our dogs and their specific needs. She came to meet the dogs first and they loved her. She was great either way communication and following instructions. Will definitely use Allison again!”
About: I’m a huge animal lover and will take care of your furry family members like my own. I will keep them engaged and loved and protected. Currently working M-F 8am-5pm. For homes closer to me, I can visit once during work hours. Anytime in the evening (my sleep schedule is 11pm-6am). Walks, feeding, play time, all no worry! Your pets will be taken care of as you instruct. All requirements precisely met. “Charley needs exactly 4oz of wet food served 3 times a day with 5ml of medicine in the midday meal?” No problem!
“Patty is fantastic! I am super glad she was flexible with my last minute military schedule and was able to drop in and spend time with my dog Bella, take her for walks and feed her while I was gone. Highly recommend for any future bookings!!”
About: We have had a dog for the last 27 years. I have watched friends and relatives dogs while they were away on vacation or just need a walk or visit while at work. I am currently retired so have no restrictions but also looking for a part time job that I can make my own hours/days that fits into my retired lifestyle I am available to walk your dog when needed. I can check in on your dog to let them out in backyard, and feed when needed
“Olivia was great as always to my doggy!! My princess loves hanging out with Olivia and Olivia takes the cutest pics of my dog during her visit. I appreciate her speedy replies and accommodating my dog’s needs. Very professional and kind.”
“Kassie was absolutely amazing! This was my first time going out of town & leaving my pups at home vs taking them to a boarding facility. My dogs are 100% more comfortable and less stressed in their own environment. Kassie was always on time for her drop ins & even did a few extra drop ins just to make sure the dogs were let out to potty between her lunch visit & her getting off of work. She sent videos & always kept me updated on anything she felt I needed to know. She even offered to collect my mail for me which I thought was so kind of her! I would absolutely recommend Kassie & would use her again in the future!”
About: I am an animal lover who has been caring for pets since a child. I am responsible and will take great care of your baby! I am available most days. Last minute or same day bookings are perfectly fine. My kids are all grown so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I have my own small dog and 1 cat. I have a super friendly 2 year old pug that could come along for walks if your pet is friendly and would like a playdate.
About: I used to help out a family friend with her dog sitting business, and have experience with taking care of all types of dogs. From little to small, cats or dogs I am very adaptable to what each pet needs. I'm a caring person and I would go out of my way to make sure a dog is happy. I pride myself on being reliable and punctual while updating pet parents with photos and reports after every visit. I treat your pets and your home with the utmost care and respect. Growing up I have had a dog with three legs, so I have learned how to take care of dogs that may need extra care and I love to figure out how to make a pet feel comfortable and safe, as well as have fun. I have experience with training puppies, as well as taking care of older pets that may need medications. I’m happy to provide walks to play sessions, as well as watering plants or taking in mail to ensure your home is secure while you’re away. Im currently working close to full time, but I have flexible hours to fit the needs of when to stop by to take care of your pets. It’s healthcare so my schedule tends to change quite often and sometimes I end up with days off during the week. I can do morning or night visits, as well as day ones during the weekend. I do have a dog of my own so my ability to stay overnight can vary but I’m always willing to board a dog that is friendly. I can easily help with crating your dog if that is needed, I crate my dog that I have at home. I’m willing to go out of my way to make your dog comfortable with me and will take the time to ensure trust. I am willing to take your pet for a long walk or spend time with them to make them feel less lonely.
About: Raised with all kinds of pets, and I now care for two dogs and regularly dog sit. Experienced with seniors, puppies, and personalized, loving care. I currently work part-time and am available for pet sitting Monday through Friday. I am available from 8am-10pm. I also offer overnight care. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide pet sitting in your home where your pet feels most comfortable.
“Steph was absolutely amazing. She’s been coming by for drop in visits to let my pup out for the past month or so and has been a life saver. Steph was so communicative with her availability and 100% responsive if I had any questions or concerns about when she’d be available. She was also always on time, never missed a day and took like a million amazing pics of Odin playing. I just wish I could’ve seen how excited he was to see her come in because I know he had a blast with her every time. Steph is incredible and I would 1000% recommend her to anyone!”

Allison was fantastic with our cats. Very patient since their scaredy cats. LOL. She had no problem giving our older cat his medicine. She was wonderful about updating us with everything that went on with them. She's very sweet and we'd love for her continue to work for us whenever needed ♥️

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 Port Royal 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.

- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
