“Jessica is amazing! I was so nervous about leaving my senior Jack Russell Terrier as he can be very anxious with new environments. Jessica was the perfect sitter and truly treated him like she would treat her own dog. Jessica put both me and my dog at ease. I would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“They are perfect sitter! They took care of my BamBam with so much love and kindness. Even though BamBam is a bit of a nervous dog, they already knew exactly how to handle him and make him comfortable.”

“Sarah was fantastic. Daisy came back happy and exhausted! Lots of play and running around in the fenced-in back yard was just what she needed. Sarah was super communicative, flexible, and so easy to work with. I'll certainly bring Daisy back next time we need a sitter!”
“I left my dog with Peter for 6 days and I am very appreciative of the service he provided! He was very kind to my dog, gave her plenty of walks and the communication was perfect. He made sure to verify the important things and provided me with well timed updates without my asking which I thought was extremely kind and well thought out. This man clearly knows what he is doing and cares about the clients he takes on. I would 10/10 recommend him to any one looking to board their dog for an extended amount of time!”
About: I've been pet sitting for years, and throughout that time, I've developed a deep understanding of each pets’ unique personality and needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is my commitment to creating a comfortable, familiar environment for your fur baby, whether it's sticking to their regular routine, offering extra playtime, or ensuring they get plenty of cuddles and attention Currently unemployed, I am free most weekdays and weekends. I do want to also add that I have had 3 back surgeries within the last year so I am more able to take care of lower energy pets at the moment. I can walk dogs but it may be better if they aren’t heavy leash pullers! When caring for pets in clients’ homes, I am always respectful of house customs, rules and more. I make sure to follow all directions/instructions provided as I want to make your pets feel like you never left by keeping a routine they are used to!
“Danielle was lovely and our 14-year-old Westie had a great stay with 3 other dogs. Danielle was patient and understanding when Joey had some accidents. Her tiny home is small but dog friendly with lots of space outside for walks and runs. She is a great and prompt communicator. Highly recommend her!”

I have professionally dog sat little and big dogs while their owners were away. I absolutely love dogs, and now have a 1.5 year old Yorkie Poo at home who loves to play! I’m currently working-from-home and have the flexibility therefore to care for dogs and walk them whenever they need and they won’t be home alone! I can feed them, play with them, and walk them often and give them all the attention they need. We have one small pup at home right now that loves to play with other dogs! We have a multi-level apartment that can be utilized to separate the dogs if your pup prefers to sleep alone or wants more down time during the day.
About: I grew up around dogs, and my family has always had at least one dog in our home. Being around dogs my whole life has given me experience caring for dogs at all stages of life, with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I've also regularly dog-sat for families over the past 6 years, which has helped me become comfortable meeting new dogs and adapting to their individual routines. I understand that every dog is different, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I'm currently in graduate school, and pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy getting outside to walk, play, and spend quality time with dogs, which is also a great way to take a break from studying. I understand the importance of maintaining each dog's regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and time to relax at home. I do my best to plan around my school schedule so each dog gets the attention, care, and companionship they need. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a backyard where dogs can get outside and enjoy fresh air. Although my yard isn't fenced, I always supervise dogs and keep them on a leash when outside to ensure their safety. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or a client's, I do my best to maintain their normal routines so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and other daily needs. I understand every dog is different, so I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I also keep owners updated with pictures and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Sheldon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Sheldon home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Sheldon.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Sheldon sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
