“Shannon has been awesome to work with and is so great and patient with my gigantic puppy! She is super reliable and legitimately cares. I would highly recommend her!”
“Amy was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the weekend. We greatly appreciate her help, especially since it was last minute. Highly recommend, and we'll certainly reach out to her again for our next trips!”

“Xanthia is an amazing pet sitter! We used her services for mid day walks when my partner was out of town. She is diligent, kind, reliable and so fun! She was very communicative and showed a lot of care. I would highly recommend her for any pet care.”

“This amazing woman has taken so much stress off me! Above and beyond, I’m so thankful. My GS gets depressed when he doesn’t get time with Amy! ( we call her Auntie Amy🤩 She is so observant to his needs being a older boy🫶🏽 Thank you Auntie Amy for all that you do with such care!”

About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life and have grown up with a deep appreciation for the unique personalities and needs of animals. Because I’ve lived with and cared for pets since childhood, I understand that they are family members, not just 'pets.' While I am new to professional pet sitting on this platform, I bring the same level of discipline and attention to detail that I have cultivated through my professional retirement home caregiving experience. I am deeply reliable, exceptionally organized, and committed to following your specific care instructions to the letter. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule, ensuring safety during walks, or providing plenty of love and attention, I treat every pet under my care with the same dedication I would provide to my own I currently work part time, with my shifts changing frequently but I always will be upfront about my availability from the jump. Other than time spent working I am available full time for whatever your pet needs! Safety is my top priority. With a background in professional caregiving, I am trained to be observant, follow detailed instructions precisely, and remain calm in any situation. Your pet’s safety and routine are always my main focus.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals of all kinds. When we got our first dog I took matters into my own hands and taught her all kinds of tricks and everything that she knows today. Most recently I pet sat a senior dog for 2 weeks giving him the attention and care that he needed. I very much enjoy going on walks especially with dogs! I currently do not have a job so I am able to check in on your pets and hang out with them as often as needed!! I am a very active person and am always available to take them on long walks to get their energy out. I am good at time management and can follow a feeding schedule. I always make sure to give my dogs the attention that they need and deserve as well as spending time playing fetch with them and even cleaning up any messes that they might make.

About: I’m a calm, reliable pet sitter who specializes in providing one-on-one, low-stress care for dogs in their own environment. I have hands-on experience working with dogs in a kennel setting, and I’ve learned that many pets do best with consistent routines, patience, and a calm presence. I focus on giving each dog individualized attention rather than managing large groups, which helps them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I have a Bachelors in Psychology and trained to see changes in behavior that are not typical for their personality. If they are more lethargic then usual I notice it and find out what is the problem. I have experience in urgent or emergency vet situations. I keep calm and the dog safe on rides to the vet. I communicate all the details needed to the vet and the parent of the dog. I’m very detail-oriented and take pride in following your instructions exactly—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or specific behaviors you’re working on. You can count on me to be consistent, attentive, and fully present with your pet. I am currently moving to Portland, Or from Washington state. I am growing my pet flight nanny business and looking for a part time job just to start out. My schedule will be flexible and I can plan around what is needed for your pet. I am great at following a routine. If you need food served at a certain time every day I can do it. If overnight care is needed I am fine to have them sleep with me or make them comfortable wherever they want. If they require play time I can adjust for the weather if needed.

“Sarah is amazing with my two dogs, she is very reliable and prompt as a sitter with Rover. This was my first experience using Rover and it was a huge success. My four legged fur babies absolutely loved the e time she spent with them.”

About: I've have cared for my own cat and labrador retriever. As well as babysat cats and dogs for neighbors. Lastly, I have volunteer as a caregiver for cats at a shelter. I take care of my labrador retriever and cat. Currently I have a part time job but I have open availability on weekdays and weekends. I care for clients home and pets like it's my own. All animals will be treated with high care and monitoring as well as homes. I want clients to feel comfortable with daily updates!
About: I've grown up around Labradors my whole life. Right now I have a yellow lab named Jasmine. She's a very high energy 10 year old dog. She's not the type of lab who likes to play fetch or even go into water. Which I feel is quite odd. The funny thing about Jasmine, she sounds like a monkey at times when she wants to come in the house. A little about me- I love being out in nature. My favorite place to walk is the beautiful Sherwood parks. I feel dog walking could be a lot of fun on my off season of my main job which is school photography. I've worked as a school photographer for 22 years. So I have a lot of patience with kids and feel I could take on any kind of dog. Right now I'm looking to fill my time walking dogs so I can get more exercise and love on many different types of dogs. I'm looking to make some extra money and take some great walks around town. I'm very dependable and will show up when I say I will. I will always make sure your amazing dog is cared for to the fullest and know they will be in safe hands while I have them.
“Sterling was absolutely amazing with our pets. She was available on short notice and really helped us out. This was our first experience with Rover, and Sterling knocked it out of the park!”

“Andrea and her team did a great job looking after my two cats (and temperamental sunflowers) this past weekend. It's good to know that she's in the neighborhood and available on Rover. I would 100% book Andrea again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable cat/pet sitter.”

“Rylie took amazing care of our two cats while we were in Europe for 9 days. Even got our very shy cat to hang out with her and gave them both ample playtime and attention. Boxes were scooped and house was in good shape when we got home as well. 10/10 will book again!”

About: - I’ve had/taken care of dogs for almost my entire life! - I often pet-sit for family friends - I work well with many varieties of dogs: energetic, puppies, old, slower, and everything in between! - I adapt well to new environments and dogs! I love getting out, especially in the mornings or afternoons for walks and playtime with dogs! I believe getting exercise in the morning boosts the mood all day :) I am a great communicator with clients and will work to build trust and safety in every environment. I am very aware of my surroundings, what the pets are up to, and what their needs are as well

“This was my first booking with Michelle, and our senior cat immediately decided she was a new friend. It was very reassuring to see how relaxed and comfortable he was while we were away. Michelle was prompt, communicative, and sent thorough updates after each visit. We came home to a calm, content cat and would happily book with her again.”


About: As well as having my own dog growing up, I’ve taken care of my friend’s dogs and love them like my own! You won’t have to worry about leaving your furry friend with me for an abundance of walks and care. I work part time and am available to spend time with your dog anytime after 9 am Tuesday through Saturday and all day Sundays and Mondays! Perfect for taking your dog out for a mid day walk while you’re at work! 👌🏼 My highest priority when taking care of your dog is safety. Anything I can do to make your dog feel safe and happy as well as those around us on walks is what I’m all about. 🙂
“Renee was wonderful! She clearly has a passion for taking care of pets and took time to really get to know our Nova so she could provide the best possible care. We received regular updates, detailed notes, and the sweetest photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Not only was our cat happy and relaxed when we returned, but everything in our home was spotless and just as we left it. Highly recommend Renee!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for friends, family and neighbors. I also have volunteered at a local dog rescue, and I would walk dogs. I also volunteered for a cat shelter where I would clean and assist in enrichment activities for the cats. I am currently working a remote part time job. I have plenty of flexibility and am also an early riser. My job is flexible, and I am able to flex my hours. I always ensure that I sick to mealtime schedules and enrichment times. I will also support crate training and potty training, if needed. Making sure that your pet is supported based on their individual needs is important to me.

Jill is amazingly consistent and loves on Pfeiffer like he’s her own. She makes sure to communicate any changes and is helpful with navigating app issues as well. Never leaves us hanging. She’s been coming to walk pfieffer for over 4 months and is a valued part of our family. :) Would truly recommend her without any reservations!

Katie was absolutely wonderful! She stepped in for last-minute drop-in visits during the holidays, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She took great care of my two dogs, Finn and Forest, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about them. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and flexible dog sitter.
Joren is amazing! She took wonderful care of our anxious fur baby and even managed to take him out for walks with great patience. We truly appreciate her dedication! She also kept us updated on our dog’s well-being, which gave us so much peace of mind. Thank you, Joren!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 6,736 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sherwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sherwood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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. 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 with handling special pet needs in Sherwood. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
