About: I love animals and would love to help you watch yours if you're out or take them on walks for you! I had a German-Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix for 11 years, he passed away recently but brought years of joy and experience with a highly-energetic dog. I recently got my first cat, and I have lived with several other dogs and cats. I do not have any professional experience grooming or dealing with animals, but I am more than willing to help out with letting dogs out, taking them on walks, etc. I definitely have plenty of experience walking dogs because of my little guy. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently have quite open availability, almost any day and time should work with some notice, and I will try to make it work regardless. I have a fenced-in yard where a dog can go outside/play fetch. I have 1 cat, but he can be kept in a separate area of the house if preferred.
“What a wonderful person you are taking care of Toby. You go above and beyond, communicate, and bring such positivity! Thank you for everything! It is so nice to know that Toby is taken care of and that there are still trustworthy people.”

About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands on experience caring for friends’ and family dogs, as well as my own, using positive reinforcement at home. On walks, I focus on gentle, calm structure, making sure gear fits comfortably, reinforcing polite leash manners, and (if you’d like) practicing simple cues like “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it.” I’m patient with excited dogs and extra gentle with nervous pups, always prioritizing safety and giving plenty of space from other dogs and people when needed. Dogs who need extra space on leash are welcome, I’m comfortable with mild–moderate reactivity and I work at the dog’s comfort level using distance, calm handling, and positive reinforcement. You’ll get photo updates + a quick walk recap each visit, and meet & greets are always welcome. I’m available for dog walks Monday through Saturday, with flexible time blocks from morning to evening (6am–10pm). Sundays are my off day. I’m happy to work with one-time walks, weekly routines, and recurring midday potty breaks—whatever keeps your pup happiest and most consistent. Safety comes first on every walk. I double-check harness/collar fit, use secure leash handling, and stay alert to surroundings. I avoid on-leash greetings unless you request them, give dogs space from triggers, and keep walks calm and positive. I’ll follow your routine closely and send photo updates each visit.
About: Hi! My name is Felicia, and I’m 26 years old. Im a full time EMT and nursing student. My schedule varies but I am a dedicated animal lover with experience caring for a variety of pets. I have two cats and two dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and proper care. I am comfortable with feeding, administering basic medications, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes, and maintaining daily routines to keep pets happy and healthy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, caring, and stress-free environment while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, walks, or extra attention, you can count on me to provide reliable and compassionate care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 Currently, I work as a fulltime EMT. But luckily I have an amazing schedule that allows me to dog walk/sit in the morning and evenings of my work days beginning at 9am and ending at 9pm. The days that I’m off, I’m free ALL day for your animal besties. Depending on what my client is comfortable with, is how I’ll deal with the safety of the animal. Whether that is a kennel, a muzzle due to a reactive pet, using pet pads, etc., I’m more than willing to work with my client on what they feel is best.

“Jessica was amazing with our fur babies. They loved her! She showed up on every scheduled visit. I loved getting pictures and updates on how they were doing. I would definitely want Jessica to watch our dogs on our future vacations!!!”

About: I’ve always had a deep passion for caring for dogs, and from a young age, I’ve made it my mission to learn everything I can about their well-being. Over the years, I’ve cared for senior dogs and understand the extra attention and patience they require. Additionally, I have some experience training dogs, which has given me a solid foundation in understanding canine behavior and using positive reinforcement. My priority is to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. I’m experienced with dogs of all temperaments and am fully capable of administering medications when needed. I pay close attention to the unique behaviors and preferences of each dog and am always happy to follow any specific instructions or routines you provide. During each visit, I approach every task with calmness, patience, and consistency—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or walks. I also ensure your dog’s environment is clean and comfortable, as I believe in creating a space where both you and your dog feel at ease. Since I'm currently taking my college classes online and am looking for a job, I have a flexible and free schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time throughout the day for your dog. Whether it's taking them for walks, providing playtime, or checking in on thrm regularly, I'm able to accommodate your dog's needs at any time that works best for you! While caring for pets in a client's home I will go the extra mile to ensure safety and security of both the pet and the home. I will give detailed pre-visit communication, making sure to speak about the pets routines, health, and any specific needs. I will also ask about home security details, emergency contacts, and preferences regarding care of the home. I will do safety checks for any potential hazard such as open windows or gates, making sure everything is secure. I will monitor any areas that you'd like off-limits to the pet. I will pay close attention to the pets behavior and their interactions with the environment. I will always lock up after each visit and always be prepared with emergency contact information and knowing where the nearest vet is.

It wasn’t until I was about 12 that I began to realize just how big the responsibility of taking care of another living thing was.

I do know how take care of dogs and understand that it can’t be play time all the time, I have been training dogs for a few years now and know how to get them to listen.

About: I have a 5 year old rescue that we raised since she was a puppy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and can adjust my style of care to meet your dogs needs. Sometimes more intensive exercise can be hard to find time for when owners are working during the day. I am more than happy to take your pup on a run with me around the neighborhood for those high energy pets! I will work with you to make sure I am providing the care that you want for your pup. I am available throughout the mornings and midday during the work week. If there is a specific schedule you would like to keep, please let me know and we can figure something out. Please see my availability for more details. I focus on making sure your pup gets the attention and care they need while I am with them. Being home for hours can be stressful for pets, and I am happy to provide some care for them while you are away.

About: I’ve provided care to different animals throughout my entire life, owning cats and dogs since I was about 5 years old. I also have experience in veterinary medicine through college education. I am also involved in volunteer work with wildlife and companion animals. I have 4 years of experience walking dogs, petsitting, and drop-ins. I recently graduated with a degree in Animal Science and Certification in Small Animal Veterinary Technology. When I am not with a companion animal, I am probably with wildlife as I am a volunteer at a wildlife rehab center! I volunteer Wednesdays and Thursdays so availability is limited, but feel free to message me if you have any questions. I am typically available for walks in the morning or late evening. If your pet is anxious and you need someone to be with them all day and night I can do that! When caring for a pet in your home, I believe in following their regular routine and lifestyle. I want to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Amanda is reliable and went beyond this latest visit checking on our pets and sending pictures. Her attentive service alleviated stress about leaving our pets behind while on vacation.”

“Melanie did a GREAT job! My dog is not super friendly when she first meets people and I was nervous that she wasn't going to welcome Melanie or that she would bark at her, etc. We had a meet-and-great beforehand and my dog absolutely loved her immediately. I was so surprised. I could tell Melanie is a dog/pet person. She kept in communication with me, sent a picture of my dog when she was at the house and did exactly what was asked of her. She was punctual, professional and reliable. I am so happy to know I have someone I can depend on to take care of my fur baby in the future and I would absolutely hire Melanie again!”


“Christin is great! I had her come and do drop inv visits with my new puppy. She was so caring and loving with him and completely accommodating with my schedule. I will definitely rebook with her!”

About: I, Amy, have done pet sitting before and cared for all sorts of breeds/sizes and special needs for dogs and cats. This account is a little older and was inactive so I’m hoping to build some clientele again :) I love to update clients with pictures/videos and text updates, whichever is your preference. If you prefer more or less updates that works too! Each care is specialized for your pups/cats. I always keep a close eye and note every possible allergy, favorite toy, favorite snacks, to dos, donts etc. you will never have to worry about me forgetting anything about your pet(s). Feel free to ask any questions, I look forward to working with you and your family. I work full time but the availability shown are my days off so I can give 100% of my attention and affection to your little ones. I send picture updates as well without you having to ask so you can enjoy your day(s)/vacation worry free! (As many or as little you’d like)

About: Honestly what could be better then sitting not babies, but your four legged best friend. My first pet was a rat my mother bought me when i was about 7, since then I've been an avid animal adopter and buyer. I have had many types of animals from to squirrels to great danes. In my last house I was living with two large doberman pinschers, two smalls chihuahuas, one parrot and one blue and gold macaw. Biggie a Lab/Boxer mix who is incredibly loving. Also Stella who is a 90 pound mastiff who just wants to cuddle and play. And last but not least I have a miniature Doberman pinscher! She is about three now and pay not much attention to anyone but her and her sister Stella. We also have two kittens in the home and an older cat who’s about 18 (she’s lives in my bedroom except when she comes out to eat) I am also open to other types of animals, lizard, snakes, mice, bunnies. Just no feeding live mice to snakes! My experience administering medication Yes, 100%. Ive had to give many animals medication before. I currently have a four year old, I’d staying at your house I can 100% do Thursday to Sunday but a whole week would most likely not be doable for me! I’m happy to do drop ins if you stay home sitter has a job during the day! I’m happy to keep your pup on the same schedule you do, walk, playtime, feeding time! I tend to set alarms for things so I never forget :)

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Riverbank stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.

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.
