I also love walking and being with nature, so it would be fun to take out some new doggies for walks.

About: Hi, I’m Ady! 🐾 I’ve always had a huge love for animals, and caring for them has been a big part of my life. I have a sweet 4-year-old pup named Leia, who is incredibly friendly and absolutely loves everyone! I also foster tiny bottle babies through local shelters and have experience caring for many different types of animals. Throughout the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of rescues, including dogs, cats, snakes, and geckos—from newborn neonates to senior pets. I have over 10 years of veterinary experience, including working in general practice, emergency medicine, and ICU/specialty veterinary care. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special medical needs and administering medications, including oral medications and insulin injections. I understand how hard it can be to find someone you genuinely trust to care for your pets while you’re away. I want to provide that peace of mind by using my veterinary experience to give your pets the same loving, attentive care I would want for my own. I’m currently taking a break from my veterinary career to be home with my two toddlers. While I absolutely love being a mom, I do miss working with animals! Pet sitting and fostering have given me a way to continue doing something I truly love while spending this special time with my family. Whether your pet needs medication, extra attention, special care, or simply someone to keep them company and give them lots of love, I’d be happy to help! Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience caring for my family’s dachshund and taking care of my own pets, including a snake, a crested gecko, and a leopard gecko. Caring for different animals has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every pet has different needs. I’m attentive to feeding routines, cleanliness, behavior, and making sure animals have a comfortable environment. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will treat yours with the same care and respect I’d want for my own! I’m organized and responsible, and I plan my schedule carefully to make sure I can give each pet the attention they deserve. I’m happy to coordinate visits, walks, and pet sitting times in advance to fit your pet’s routine and needs. I understand that consistency is important for animals, so I’ll do my best to maintain their usual feeding, walking, playtime, and rest schedules. I’ll communicate with you ahead of time to make sure we’re a good fit! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priorities. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your pet has fresh water, appropriate food, a clean environment, and plenty of attention. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, and boundaries rather than assuming every animal is the same. I’m careful with doors, leashes, feeding instructions, and anything that could pose a risk to your pet. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away. I want you to feel confident knowing your pet is being cared for responsibly, patiently, and with lots of love.

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.
