About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, including family and after eight great years working in a PetHotel I’ve wanted to continue my love for pets Moved back home to Texas, losing our oldest fur baby. Getting back to a normal, I enjoy animals. They are in fact what make our world go round If given a quick rundown of things your pups enjoy I will make a great effort to fulfill them as well as giving lots of love. If needing more socializing, I can make trips to pet friendly places to help get started/better
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always been a huge animal lover. I grew up with Great Pyrenees, so I’m very comfortable around large dogs and understand the care, patience, and attention that comes with bigger breeds. Now I have a long-haired miniature dachshund of my own, so I also have plenty of experience with smaller dogs and all of the personality that can come with them! Having dogs throughout my life has taught me how different every pet can be. I’m very patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medications, or just lots of cuddles and attention. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I’ll always treat them the way I would want someone to treat my own dog and keep you updated while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to make pet care a regular part of my day. I’m able to plan walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins around each pet’s normal routine. I really enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them never feels like just another task on my schedule. I’m also happy to work with owners to keep things as consistent and familiar as possible while they’re away! I’m very mindful of things like doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, medications, and any specific routines or house rules you have in place. I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment while you’re away. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can feel reassured knowing your pet is being well cared for.
“Linda is an amazing cat sitter! She helped us out when we were in a pinch, and we’re so grateful she was able to care for our cats. One of our cats is diabetic and requires insulin twice a day, and Linda handled everything with such confidence and care since she also has experience caring for a diabetic cat of her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our cats were in such capable hands. She kept us updated, treated our cats like they were her own, and went above and beyond. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!”
About: I have had animals all my life. I have administered medication, placed protective eye care for dogs with Pannus, exercised over weight cats and dogs. I truly believe our pets are just as much part of our families as anyone else is and I treat all animals as if they were my own! I am self employed so I have the freedom to work whenever I need. Our fur babies our part of our family and we understand that every one is different and all have their own individual needs when it comes to care. We have a large fenced in yard and the ability to separate our fur babies in our home if necessary. We love all animals in our home and they are considered part of the family!
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12, friends and family relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their dogs. I've taken care of puppies and love all sorts of animals even reptiles! I have also worked professionally as a dog bather so if you would also like your fur baby to get a bath or if they are good for nail trims then I can help. I'm available anytime and day I'm needed to play with puppies or spend time with your dog or cat, walk them or even just to spend time with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I spend quality time with them so they feel safe and cared for while their owner is away, whether that means playing, giving attention, or just keeping them company.
About: From farm animals, to show animals. I’ve experienced it all. We personally have animals that need daily medication, so there’s really nothing I haven’t done. Especially on a farm, I’ve rescued and rehabbed many different types of animals. Before or after my Monday-Friday. If special accommodations need to happen, it’s really no big deal. I can make it work to fit your needs. I follow your exact household routine so your pet feels minimal disruption. This includes feeding and medication on schedule, refreshing food and water, thorough litter-box scooping and cleaning, playtime or walks, and any enrichment or cuddle time your pet enjoys. I also perform basic home checks (locking doors, bringing in mail, watering plants if requested) while treating your space with complete respect. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, I adapt to your cat’s or dog’s preferences—quiet companionship for shy pets, interactive play for energetic ones—and provide detailed updates throughout the visit.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 413 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ropesville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
