“Excellent as always! She was able to administer an inhaler to our asthmatic cat. Brie gives us peace of mind while we are out of town and our animals love her.”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for years now and have worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility for 4 1/2 years. My neighbors always come to me when they need someone to take care of their pets. I’ve had experience feeding, giving medication, and training I currently work full time and usually get off early so I’ll have lots of time to care for your pups! I’m free most weekends and after 3 most days I’m not looking to provide home services at my home currently because I’m currently still living with my parents. Hopefully in the future that will be a paw-sability for me

“I liked Chloe the minute I met her. She came over for a pre visit to meet my cats and learn about their routine. Ava and Tucker warmed up to her right away and I knew they would be in good hands. Chloe arrived on schedule for four mornings and five evenings to feed, play with and attend the litter box. When I arrived home from my trip, the house was in order, and everything looked as I left it. I’ll definitely request Chloe again. 🏠😸👍🏻👍🏻”

About: I have two years experience caring for dogs and love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I’m currently a college student, so I have classes during the week, but I have a flexible schedule outside of class. I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and pet care before or after school, i’m more flexible on weekends! I always want pets to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they’re with me. I have experience with dogs and understand the importance of keeping their normal routine.

About: I grew up with dogs of all ages, and have a special place in my heart for senior dogs! I discovered my love for cats later in life and have enjoyed getting to know how to interact with them. I work from home, and enjoy getting out of the house to visit and take walks. I can do any time of day as well! Whether you have a fenced in yard, a dog who loves adventure, or a major couch potato, I can adjust to your pets environment and give them lots of love.

“Janice checked in our kitties for three days over the Christmas holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with her communication and the care she gave them. Each time she visited we received a thorough report and 20+ photos. She clearly really cared about making sure they were happy and went above and beyond to make sure we knew how things were going. I'd absolutely book her again.”

About: For my entire life, I have grown up with a dog in my family home. I have experienced first hand how to care for a 2 month old puppy and a 13 year old senior dog. Since the age of 16, I have also watched family friends dogs, either doing overnight stays or routinely check-ins with the dogs. As a graduate student, I have classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On those days, your pup may be home for a few hours while I’m in class, but I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and potty breaks before I leave and as soon as I return. Outside of my class schedule, I have a flexible routine and spend most of my time at home, so I’ll be able to provide lots of companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow all of your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any other special care your pet needs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel the most comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I love cleaning and doing daily chores, so that will never be a problem for me! I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My priority is making sure both you and your pet have peace of mind.

About: I've had a house full of pets since I was born. We always had at least 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and other pets in the house. Chance was my main pet (pitbull) who I personally trained and took care of from the age of 10 until I left for college. I now have a chihuahua named Taako and a fluffy cat named Magnus that I take care of. I've also helped watch cats and dogs of family and friends. I also spend my free time volunteering at Lake Humane Society. I have experience in reading cat temperment (don't want to get bit in a shelter!) and training dogs. I work full time 9-5 during the week from home but I can help during a lunch break, after work any time, or on weekends! I will work to whatever your comfort level is for your pets! My chihuahua is distrustful of strangers so I entirely understand if your animals need some time to warm up to me.

About: Ive been around pets my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owners instructions closely and make sure pets feel safe abs comfortable while they're in my care I currently work part-time on Mondays, Tuesdays Thursdays, and Saturdays, ( sometimes they don’t schedule me all days) and I attend college during the week. My school schedule is fairly flexible with no more than two classes per day, usually lasting around 2 hours each. This gives me plenty of time between classes and work to care for pets, provide walks, drop in visits, and spend time with pets staying with me. I'm also available for boarding and overnight care. On weekdays, drop-off and pickup times may need to be arranged around my class schedule, but I'm happy to work with owners to find a time that works for both of us. My days off from work are Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, so I have even more flexibility on those days. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals, and bathroom breaks based on their normal routine. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for while there away from home. In a clients home, I follow the owners instructions closely and try to keep the pets routine as normal as possible. I'm respectful of the home, keep things clean, and make sure the pet gets the care, attention, walks, feeding, and companionship they need. I'm also happy to send updates and photos do owners know how their pet is doing.

About: I have always been around various breeds of dogs from different types of training. I was always the one to jump up when it came time to feed/walk/bathe/pill/groom the dogs around my family and the neighborhood. I have always figured out how to comfort and help the anxious or reactive dogs, my goal was and is to just help these animals exist as happily, heathy, and peacefully as possible. I’ve fosterf puppies, fostered and retrained aggressive adolescents, and nurtured seniors. They give true unconditional love, I only wish to return it. I have a pretty open schedule currently, so I can easily adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the most fulfilling experience with my time with them. Although I cannot watch your dog at my own home, I am willing to monitor your dog through the entire visit to ensure they do not cause damage at your home or to themselves. I know plenty of ways to stimulate your pet inside and outside.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine passion and dedication to animals. Caring for dogs and cats isn't just a job for me—it's what I want to dedicate my life to. I currently serve as the General Manager of a pet lodge, where I've worked since July 2024. Prior to that, I gained valuable experience at both an animal hospital and another boarding facility. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, as well as dogs of all breeds and sizes and cats of all personalities. I am comfortable administering a wide variety of medications, including pills, tablets, insulin injections, eye medications, ear medications, and more. I take immense pride in providing exceptional care and treating every pet as if they were my own. It would be an honor to care for your furry family members, and I promise they will receive the top-notch, five-star care, attention, and love they deserve. I am currently the General Manager of a boarding, daycare, and grooming facility, where I have the opportunity to work with pets and their families every day. While I truly enjoy what I do, my long-term goal is to build something of my own. I am working toward starting my own pet care business and eventually opening my own boarding and daycare facility. My passion for animals and commitment to providing exceptional care drive me to continue learning, growing, and pursuing that dream. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have four dogs and a cat of my own, so at this time I primarily offer drop-in visits and dog walking services in your home. This allows me to give your pets the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they deserve while keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether it's a daily walk, playtime, feeding, or simply spending quality time with them, I am committed to making sure your pets feel loved and well cared for while you're away.

“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

About: My family loves animals and we would love to take in your pet for the day! We have a dog park and love to go on walks during the evening. Cats are also welcome as we love to snuggle them ❤️. Your pets will be safe and loved in our care and I am able to communicate with you over phone as much as you need during their stay.

Taking care of animals makes me so happy. I always hoped to go into Veterinary medicine one day. Right now I have all the free time in the world to take care of your pets when needed ❤️ Pets will be able to run and play in our home. Feeding will depend on how often you need me to feed.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Ross

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 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.

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 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.
