About: I have been around dogs since I can remember. I love to talk to my dogs like they are my kids. Play with them to keep them active and moving around. I treat every dog like they are my own I’m currently going to school so working part time. I love dogs so this works perfectly with my schedule and I get to hangout with dogs all day I have a fenced in yard, and keep an eye my dogs whenever they are outside to make sure they are okay. I don’t allow them to chew on anything that isint a toy or jumping. I follow whatever the owner would like me to do, because everybody raises their animals differently. I respect every persons preferences and will abide by that.
“Becca gave us piece of mind while we were out of state for a week. She updated us with photos and even the weather to ensure our pup was comfortable with storms rolling through. She took care of our bearded dragon and salt water fish as well, so she's not limited to canines and felines. We will definitely use Becca again!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with both dogs and cats and honestly can’t remember a time when I didn’t have pets in my home, besides now since I moved out for college! I worked in a pet shop for two years, where I gained experience caring for animals and learning about their needs and behaviors. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience dog and cat sitting for friends, family, and others, including overnight stays. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, providing exercise, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. As a CNA and nursing student, I am CPR certified and understand the importance of responsibility, patience, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. I also would love to do any around the house chores that you might need done while I’m stopping in to see your pet or while I’m house sitting! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and staying active. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I also have reliable transportation, making it easy for me to travel to your home and provide dependable care when you need it. Whether your pet needs a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight companionship, I’m happy to help. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and household rules to ensure your pet feels secure and cared for. As a CNA and CPR-certified caregiver, I understand the importance of attention to detail and remaining calm in unexpected situations. I believe communication is key, so I love sending photo updates and messages during visits to keep owners informed and give them peace of mind. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pet while providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience every time.

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 .

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.
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.
