“Alicianna has been incredible through our entire experience. Even when our boy got a little feisty with her, she was still so incredibly sweet. She was our first ever dog sitter and I couldn’t be more grateful because we felt at ease knowing she was taking great care of our boy☺️”
“Jordan was quick to respond after short notice and went above and beyond, providing quality care for my pup Sydney. Sydney loved her from the beginning and was so sad when she left. I plan to use her services again and I appreciate all her help :)”
“Trisha did an excellent job taking care of my boy! He was fed, let out and played with while I was away. He was super happy and she was great with communication. We hope to see Trisha soon for more amazing care with drop ins😄”
“Brooke did amazing with Ruger and Maggie! She followed the schedule like we talked about and fed them for us as well. Ruger and Maggie behaved well with her kids. Definitely going to be using her in the future!!”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Jacob! 🌟 He was reliable, communicative, and genuinely cared for my pet like they were his own. I had total peace of mind knowing everything was handled with so much attention and kindness. I would 100% trust Jacob again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch care. Thanks again, Jacob! 🐾💛”
“Few weeks late but has NOTHING to do with how Michelle was with our dogs. She was awesome! She sent me tons of pictures and was very up to date with the visits. Nino and Athena seemed to like her very much and very happy. I would definitely ask Michelle to watch the dogs again if we need it. It's hard to find someone who's a stranger to watch over our fur babies and to allow in our house. First for me and Michelle met my husband and I on two separate occasions and never had an issue. She was very easy to talk to and I got a great vibe off of her. So, thank you Michelle on watching over our babies and being so good about keeping us in the loop.”
About: What sets me apart is my real hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs in different home environments. I’ve pet sat for 3 different families and understand how important it is to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I also have a cat and two dogs of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I am currently on summer break from college, and animal care is my part-time job for the summer. I have open daily availability and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for pets. In the client’s home, I will maintain the environment exactly as I found it. I will carefully follow all instructions provided and in unforeseen situations I can navigate them by using my experience caring for pets to handle any situation responsibly.
About: I currently have 3 rescued cats and 2 rescued dogs. I grew up in a neighborhood where everyone had animals and one even had farm animals. I never really got to help with the farm animals but when neighbors went on vacation I would care for their cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bunnies, and even hedgehogs. I cared for animals of all ages! I currently do spark which is Walmart deliveries and am looking for something part time! I can do daily or weekly as needed. I can work with your schedule as needed but am unavailable till after 8:45am on the weekdays. I have cared for several peoples animals. I have experience playing with dogs and cats. I also have experience getting animals into a crate if needed.
“Really great service. I have a little troublemaker too and she went above and beyond in regards to care for that one as well as the others. Absolutely love her personality. 10/10 would recommend!!!”
“I travel for work and always use Chloe take care of Rocco. He can be a challenge because he’s a big puppy that does not realize his strength sometime, but he loves her and she handles him well.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every animal. I don’t believe in simply stopping by to feed and leave. I take the time to build trust, learn each pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, high energy breeds, and multi pet households. I’m also comfortable caring for farm animals such as chickens, goats, rabbits, and other small livestock. Whether your pet needs an active walk, medication, extra patience, or just plenty of love and attention, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, healthy pet and have complete confidence that they were treated like family every step of the way. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine, not something I try to fit in between other commitments. I intentionally schedule my day to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, potty breaks, or simply keeping them company, I make sure their routine stays as consistent as possible. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable, especially while their owners are away, and I always strive to provide a calm, dependable, and stress free experience for both pets and their families. Every pet has different needs, so I tailor my care to match their normal routine and your instructions. In your home, I work to keep your pet’s schedule as consistent as possible by following their feeding routine, providing exercise, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship. I also respect your home by keeping it clean, bringing in mail or packages if requested, watering plants, and making sure everything is secure while you’re away. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family. They receive regular potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, and lots of attention in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I provide updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 12 years old. I’ve always had a dog and horse growing up. Now I have three dogs of my own and have experience dog sitting for other families I am a fully-time student here in town with a flexible schedule. Pet sitting has been my passion so I have much time for it! I am able to do morning, afternoon, or evening sittings! I like instructions, the more detailed the better! I am prepared to follow or do whatever needed to ensure your fur-babies are safe, comfortable, and happy!
About: I will love your dog or cat as if they were my own. I have fostered and volunteered with local rescues and have probably fostered around 40 dogs and cats in my life time. I am able to help soothe nervous pets and start working on commands. I don’t mind taking “reactive” dogs, just let me know that they are “reactive” so I can best prepare. I have had several fosters that had a bite record but by the end of their stay with me they were a completely different pup as they began to trust the world again. I honestly like fur babies more than most people. There are no children in my home and I have a Chi Pug Mix and Husky, both submissive. I do work full time week day schedules are as follows: Leave home at 7:15 am Return on my lunch to let dogs out/provide enrichment 12:15pm-1pm Return home for the day at 5pm Unless volunteering (will be scheduled around boarding/day care) I’m am home at least 75% of the time on weekends and evenings. I have a large fenced back yard and have baby gates for additional separation/in case your pup is a runner when doors are opened (please let me know if this is the case). I also have a “office” where 1/2 is set up for dogs that need separation as well as two additional separate spaces should the pup need to be separated. I will treat your furbaby as if it is my own and I’m definitely a helicopter dog mom where safety is my number one priority.
“Ashley is hands down the best dog sitter I have ever used! She went above and beyond while taking care of my dog and I would recommend her to anyone. A great sitter and a great person, I will be requesting her again. ”

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 Richlands 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.

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.
