About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.

About: I have over 6 years of animal experience with dogs, bunnies, and cats. I am active and ready to walk your dogs and play with them! I currently have 2 job working at Target and Nakashimas. I am available after 1pm on Mondays and Saturdays. I am available all day on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday mornings and Sunday morning (6am-11-30am). I am also flexible for last minute bookings. I am 21 years old, I have 1 dog and 1 cat. I take my dog for a walk everyday and sometimes my cat in his little cat backpack. I feed them every morning 7am and night 6pm! I give them my full attention, they are my baby's and have studied them to know exactly what they need. While taking care of your fur baby's I will accommodate to their needs and give my full attention to them and make sure they are happy and always safe.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was five years old, my family got a dog named Midnite, and taking care of him is what first made me realize how much I love being around animals. As a kid, I volunteered at a local dog groomer for two years, where I got experience helping out and learning how to work with dogs of all different personalities. More recently, I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends and have also helped take care of their cats. I’ve even had experience caring for senior pets, including a German Shepherd and senior cat who needed regular medications. All of these experiences have helped me become more comfortable, patient, and confident when caring for animals. I am currently working full time from home. This gives me time to walk, play, and cuddle animals who need some attention. I also have reliable transportation and a love of enjoying the outdoors. I have extensive experience taking care of cats and dogs in their owners homes. Making sure they have access to water, are fed, medications are administered, and they are comfortable and happy. I also have experience walking dogs who are great on the leash and some who pull.
“Michelle was fantastic! She kept me posted with pictures at the visit times. She also talked me through what to expect while using Rover since it was my first time using the service. Thank you so much Michelle!”

“Caitlin and Samuel were a wonderful dog sitter! They treated my dog’s like her own, made sure all needs were met, and kept me updated with messages and photos. I could tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!””


About: I've had dogs my whole life. Currently, we have two cats, which is easier with our sports schedule, but I miss having a dog to walk. So, I thought I'd see if you needed help with yours. I'm working part-time and own a business. Both provide me flexibility to be there when your dog needs me. My kids are old enough for me to be gone for short stints. Prefer walking schedules during, morning, afternoon, or late evening as those provide me the best opportunity to give your pets the attention they deserve. Experience walking dogs with leash aggression. Can typically recognize it in your dog or the dogs we are approaching. Will always keep animals leashed in public.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started walking dogs when I was 11 years old. Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs, cats, and many other pets of my own. I am comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, including senior pets, rescues, and shy animals who need extra patience and care. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love building trust with each pet and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is my full-time and only job, so I’m able to offer flexible scheduling, dependable communication, and plenty of attention for your pets. I’m typically available all days of the week, including daytime hours, with occasional exceptions depending on scheduling and personal appointments. I truly love what I do and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. During drop-in visits, I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level while providing plenty of care, affection, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, meals, medications if needed, and cleanup. I understand that trust is incredibly important when someone is caring for both your pets and your home, so I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to details. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel loved and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was ten. From a litter of beagle puppies to King & Queen to Sandy our cocker spaniel and Pepper the Schnauzer. In married life I had golden retriever and multiple Tri Shelties. Also have the pleasure of grand dogs to care for occasionally. My last Sheltie Cooper passed 10/2020 and I would love to care for your precious fur baby. I am an active retired female with lots of time & energy to care for your loved one. My hours are very open and I can be flexible with schedule I have a nice backyard with long leads/leash to connect pet indoors before letting out. Also very nice trail walks in area. I enjoy keeping your dog in good shape with a little exercise and a calm relaxing home to come back to
About: I have been traveling for a while, so I took a break from dog sitting, but I am ready to spend my time with all the lovely pets again! Through a mix of my family pets and dog sitting I have experience with training, feeding, walking, and caring for dogs with very different personalities. I don’t think it’s the right time for me to own my own dog, but I’m excited to love on and take care of yours! My favorite thing is getting outside as much as possible with dogs to help us both get a little exercise in. I have lots of time to take care of your pup! For the most part I’m available everyday of the week unless my calendar says differently! Wherever we are, I will be sure to explore the neighborhood with your pup! I love to get out and go on walks as often as possible. While we’re in the house, lots of playing with toys and cuddles will be given!
About: Hi! I am full-time teacher, part-time photographer, and a full-time dog mommy. I have had dogs as pets since I was about 10 years old. My family dogs became my responsibility when my parents went out of town (as I was the oldest). I love to go on walks, play fetch, and just about anything else that dogs love to do! Since I am a full-time teacher, I would be available during nights and weekends to watch and/or stay overnight with. Dogs are welcome in my home as long as they get along with other dogs. I have two dogs myself currently, a Boston terrier/boxer mix and a Chihuahua/terrier mix. I am caring, loyal, and flexible. I would love to meet you and your dog!

About: I have had a love for dogs my entire life! I was blessed to grow up with the sweetest Black Lab and my family welcomed a toy poodle to our family when I was 12. In the last couple of years, the family dogs have gone from 2 to 6 with the addition of my in-laws. I am at my happiest when we are all in the same house, each of us with a dog on our lap or at our feet. I don't know what life is like without a dog in it! I lost my 4 year old mini dachshund unexpectedly in 2020. Since then my love for dogs has only grown. I would love to hangout with your furbaby! I currently work a hybrid schedule, working from home most days. My role allows me flexibility throughout the day. I would love to fit in a couple of dog walks and cuddles into my schedule. All dogs are part of the family in my home. I will never treat them differently. I grew up with runners, so have no fear that keeping your dogs safe and home is my number one priority.
“Brianna was great. I was in a pinch and had never used Rover before. She wasn't able to meet my dog (German Shepherd) before hand during the week. That is important walking into a home of a Shepherd! She was flexible and met my dog in the morning of the day I needed her in the afternoon. Very much appreciated and worked out really well. Highly recommended and everyone should use her (except when I need her!!) Bill”

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.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sherwood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Sherwood with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
