About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and the care I put into making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I grew up in a home where we always had both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. As an adult, I became interested in positive reinforcement training and have followed Zack George’s training methods with my own dog. I value building trust, encouraging good behavior through patience and consistency, and creating a calm, positive environment. My goal is to be as much of a companion for pets as they are for us. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet cuddles, or simply having someone nearby to make them feel safe and relaxed, I will treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to learn their routines and preferences so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work in education, which allows me to be available before school, during my lunch break, and after school to check in on pets, take them for walks, feed them, or spend time with them. On weekends, I enjoy having more flexibility to dedicate extra time to getting to know each pet, keeping them company, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I strive to provide consistent, reliable care while giving each pet the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for your pet. Being away from their owner can already create some anxiety, so I believe it’s important to keep them in the comfort of their familiar environment whenever possible. Before you leave, I take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I work closely with each owner to maintain as much consistency as possible, helping pets feel safe, secure, and comfortable while you’re away. I also provide plenty of companionship, attention, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for.

About: I have four years of professional pet care experience working with a wide variety of animals, including high-energy breeds that need plenty of exercise and older dogs requiring gentle attention. Whether you are away on vacation or just need a daily check-in, I offer reliable house visits for both dogs and cats. I customize my care to match your pet's unique routine, energy levels, and medication needs so you can travel with total peace of mind. I am a Master's student at Tennessee Tech with a highly flexible routine that easily accommodates consistent pet care. Because I manage my own study and research hours, I have plenty of time during the day for midday dog walking, drop-in neighborhood check-ins, and flexible house visits. My weeks are highly adaptable, and my weekends are entirely open for dedicated boarding or overnight sitting. I focus on building trustworthy personal relationships with owners while providing an active, safe environment for their pets. I run regularly and have the energy to perfectly match high-energy breeds, but I am equally experienced and gentle with older dogs and cats who need calm, attentive house visits. Whether caring for a pet in my own home—which includes a safe, covered porch—or looking after them in yours while you are on vacation, I strictly follow your rules for crating, feeding, and routine to keep your best friend safe and comfortable.

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 .

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.
