About: I’m a Texas A&M University Animal Science graduate with hands-on experience working in a veterinary clinic. Through my veterinary experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs and have developed skills in safe animal handling, administering medications, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I take the time to provide individualized, patient, and compassionate care. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I’m committed to keeping them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My veterinary background allows me to provide an extra level of confidence and attentive care for both pets and their owners. I work a consistent weekday schedule, with Wednesdays off, so I primarily offer pet care before or after work and during my lunch break, with greater availability on weekends and days off. I plan my bookings carefully to ensure I have enough time to provide each pet with attentive, unhurried care. I’m dependable and communicative, and I’ll work with you to find visit times that fit your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My veterinary experience has taught me the importance of safe animal handling, paying attention to changes in behavior, and following each pet’s individual care instructions. When caring for pets in their home, I respect your space and follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I’ll always prioritize keeping them safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

“I can’t thank Jaylene enough for the amazing care she gave Jellybean while I was away. She was dependable, attentive, and treated him like he was her own.

Thank you again for loving on my little guy!”

About: my aunt owns a French bulldog business and I used to help her sit her frenchies. I also have a yard so we can be outside very often! I work in office 7AM-3PM every weekday with the occasional work from home days twice a month. We wake up at 5AM, take the dogs out, breakfast at 5:30AM, take the girls out at 6:45AM. The next potty break is at 3:30PM. I have an almost 4 year old corgi who is very high energy. We play fetch everyday. Water is always in her bowl. She loves hiking and playing in water. I also have a 10 year old terrier mix. She is like a cat, loves to lounge and eat.

About: I have taken care of multiple pets throughout my life. I am familiar with caring for puppies, middle aged cats/dogs, and senior cats/dogs. Animals hold a very special place in my heart & they deserve nothing but love. I can fit your pets care and needs into my schedule without a problem. Let me know the timeframe you need your fur baby taken care of, & they will be first on my list of priorities! I have a fenced yard that is very spacious for your fur baby to roam and play. There are many shady areas for your pet to rest from playing. Fresh food, water, and of course head pats will be available at all times. 🐾 If the weather is too much, we will hangout inside and do whatever your pet is in the mood for, whether it be playing, eating, or resting. They will be cared for and loved.
About: I have 10 years of experience with military working dogs. Friends and neighbors have typically entrusted me to care for their furry family members over the years. I will treat your pets like they are part of my family. I do work a full time job in the Air Force, but I can ensure daily walks, play, and plenty of attention during the work week. On weekends, I am very flexible to whatever hours and activities you may need also. I have a large fenced in yard and a park within half a mile for great walks during the day or evening. I do not own any other pets, and I offer a quiet safe environment for your pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- 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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
