About: Hi I'm Jeanette. I've owned and cared for animals my entire life. I've taken care of many animals for friends and family over the years. I've owned many different kinds of animals from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles and everything in between. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats that keep me busy. I've work with animals for the past 18 years. I worked at a vet clinic where I got to take care of many different types of animals. I've also been a dog groomer for the last 18 years. I've worked at a doggy daycare where I got to take care of senior pets and administer medication when needed. Making your fur babies comfortable and happy while your away is what I do best. If they are happy then I'm happy. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm currently not working at the moment so my schedule is pretty open to anything right now. Let me know what dates and times you need me and we can definitely work something out. I'll make sure your pet stays safe while in my care. I will keep a close eye on your pet if they have special need or are a senior pet. While in there own environment I'll make sure they are very comfortable. Throwing a ball or giving a treat, it's the little things while your away.
“Randy was professional, warm, and courteous. Her task was to check in on our dog, cats, rabbit and birds twice daily for four days. She made sure they had water, food, clean environments, snacks and snugs. Randy was prompt, consistent, thorough, and took lots of pictures! The animals were happy to see us when we returned but didn’t look bothered at all that we had been gone!”
“Stacy did a great job! I appreciated the updates and photos each day. My cats were calm and happy when I got back from my trip and their food station, waters, and litter boxes were nice and clean. We will absolutely rebook with Stacy if she’s available next time we take a trip!”

I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats.

I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, keeping pets on their normal routines, and providing plenty of companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency and patience are, especially when a pet is in a new environment or away from their family. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day.

My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own.

“Madalyn is the BEST!!! I recently entrusted Madalyn with the responsibility of caring for my two beloved cats over the weekend, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service she provided. From start to finish, Madalyn demonstrated a level of professionalism and care that exceeded my expectations. Communication is key when it comes to pet sitting, and Madalyn excelled in this aspect. She kept me updated regularly, ensuring that I was informed about my cats' well-being every step of the way. Whether it was through text messages, calls, or emails, Madalyn made sure I was in the loop, giving me peace of mind throughout the weekend. What truly set Madalyn apart was her thoughtful gesture of sending pictures and videos during each visit. Not only did this allow me to see my fur babies and reassure myself of their well-being, but it also showed Madalyn's genuine dedication to her job. These updates were not just quick snapshots but detailed glimpses into the care and attention she provided to my cats. Madalyn's experience and competence were evident in every interaction. She handled every aspect of pet care with ease, from feeding to playtime, ensuring that my cats were not only well-fed but also entertained and happy in my absence. Overall, I cannot recommend Madalyn highly enough to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Her reliability, friendliness, experience, and exceptional communication skills make her the ideal choice for anyone seeking peace of mind while away from their beloved pets. With Madalyn, you can rest assured that your furry companions are in the best hands possible.”
“I had Courtney stop by for a drop in today, as we had a long day away. My plans changed a little and Courtney was able to come earlier than planned, which helped out a lot. Lily and Elaine were happy to see her, of course Lily still barked a bit in the beginning but it didn’t last long, which is really good for the 2nd visit. Courtney was able to get her outside for a break and a little walk. She checked everything I asked to check, it’s really nice to have her so we don’t have to worry when we need to be away.”
“Great first time experience using Rover Courtney was amazing. I felt extremely comfortable after our meet and greet. It made it very clear in our communications. Courtney gave me regular updates and cared for my pet like my Honeybun was her own. I will definitely be using her again”

About: I provide calm, attentive care focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience with all pets and understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and following routines!

My availability can vary week to week. I have my schedule up to three weeks in advance. I will be sure to communicate to you the times of days I am available. Some days I have open I’m not available that whole day, just some parts of the day.However, I’m very willing to plan ahead and work around my schedule to make sure I can properly care for pets I commit to. I prioritize being reliable and communicating clearly, and I only accept bookings I know I can fully accommodate.

About: I have years of experience with my personal animals along with friends, I care for animals as if they were my own. They get the rule of the roost, and sleep in my bed! I often work 4 days a week so I have the long weekends to pet sit. If you need during the week it’s possible, as I have a doggy door and a 6 foot-dug into the ground fence, but would need to be the right fit while I’m at work, I have cameras to check on them too. Pets will get ample play time, walk/run and couch time too. The dog door is helpful once they figure it out, they can come and go as they please.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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.
