“It is such a relief and peace of mind knowing Kaylee is looking after Chip. It’s clear from the pictures she sends Chip loves her more than me, but that’s totally fine by me because I know he’s being looked after and in good hands while I’m gone. For someone who travels a lot for work or at all…she’s a godsend.”

I just finished my second booking with Monica and will continue to book with her. Highly recommended!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and birds since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I also worked for a veterinarian for about 2 years and I am currently going to school to become a veterinary technician. I have a 1 1/2-year-old dog that I am currently training her to be a therapy dog. I am available 7 days a week while working full-time Monday thru Friday. I’ll be able to pet sit in your home. Check out my calendar to see what days I’m not currently booked. In my clients' homes, I give the animals all of my attention and follow any special directions the client leaves for me. I am a firm believer in leaving things better than how I found them, so I am always sure to clean up, lock up, use common sense, and follow proper & appropriate protocol and instruction.
About: Hi! I’m Kassie. I’ve always loved animals and have spent years caring for pets of my own, as well as helping family and friends with theirs. I recently worked as a Client Service Representative at a veterinary clinic, where I spent every day interacting with dogs, cats, and their owners. That experience strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, the importance of routine, and how to help pets feel comfortable in unfamiliar situations. I also have experience maintaining aquariums, so if you have fish, I’d be happy to care for them too. I’m comfortable feeding fish, checking equipment, top off water if requested, perform basic maintenance according to your instructions, and helping keep aquatic pets healthy while you’re away. At home, I have two spoiled cats who mean the world to me, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, aquarium care, or medication exactly as you’ve instructed, I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and the same attention I’d give my own pets. I’m currently available on short notice and have a flexible schedule, so I’m happy to help with last-minute bookings whenever I can. I’ll also send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m currently available with a flexible schedule, so I can often accommodate weekday, evening, weekend, and even last-minute bookings. Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I enjoy making sure every pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or a longer stay, I’ll make sure your pets are well cared for while you’re away. I know every pet has their own routine, so I always do my best to keep things as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, litter box care, playtime, or aquarium maintenance. I’ll respect your home, keep you updated with messages and photos, and treat your pets with the same patience and care I give my own.

About: My husband and I are workampers! That means we move every season to a new campground and work there. This time, we are at Jellystone Caledonia!! We love to have the presence of animals, since it gets boring living in a campground without an animal to walk. There is a great dog park here with great socialization opportunities (for us and the dogs 😆😆)!! I would love an opportunity to pet sit any type of fur babies, I grew up with cats and dogs my whole life!!! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!! Pet care fits seamlessly into our routine. My husband and I travel full time, which gives us a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability. We both enjoy meeting new people and animals along the way, and our lifestyle allows us to be present, attentive, and adaptable.

In a client’s home, I make sure feeding schedules, walks, litter care, playtime, and medications (if needed) are handled consistently and with attention to detail. I respect the home and keep everything clean and orderly while you’re away.

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.

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 .
