About: I have hands-on experience working in a veterinary hospital, giving me experience caring for dogs and cats with a variety of needs. I am comfortable with feeding, medications, monitoring behavior, and providing individualized care. I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s routine. I’m especially passionate about making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. I am generally available Monday through Friday outside of my work hours, and I have additional flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays. I typically work around 9 AM–5 PM on weekends, but I’m still available for evening and overnight care. I may also have occasional work on Thursdays, but I will always communicate my availability clearly and make sure I can give your pets the time and attention they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My veterinary experience has taught me the importance of paying attention to changes in behavior, following care instructions carefully, and creating a calm environment for pets. I will treat your home with respect, follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pets are safe and well cared for.
“We have used him twice and he went above and beyond both times walking my dog, from taking him in his car to a better location for a walk to potty breaks and putting him back in his cage and setting it up the way it was before for his anxiety I would absolutely recommend to anyone”

About: I’m a Star Sitter on Rover with hands-on experience providing reliable, professional in home pet care, including drop ins, house sitting, and walks. In addition to being a dedicated dog mom to two large breed dogs, I’ve worked in boarding facilities and pet hotels and have volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My background has taught me how to safely handle dogs in a variety of environments, follow detailed care instructions, recognize stress signals, and maintain structured routines, all while keeping pets comfortable in their own homes, where they’re often happiest. I customize the care I provide according to individual needs while emulating the pet’s current routine.

About: Hi! I’m Izzy, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I grew up with a yellow Labrador, so dogs have always held a special place in my heart. Today, I am a cat owner, which has given me an even greater appreciation for the unique personalities and needs of both dogs and cats. Over the years, I have cared for many pets with special medical needs, including administering oral medications and insulin injections to both dogs and cats. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I will provide the same level of care and patience I would want for my own pets. Pet sitting is currently my full-time job while I pursue my degree online, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care to every pet I look after. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, playing fetch, and making sure every pet gets the exercise, affection, and attention they need. If we schedule a meet and greet, there is a $20 booking fee. This helps cover my time and protects my schedule from last-minute cancellations. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! 🐾💕 I am pursing my degree online with flexible time on my hands! So if you need me I am your girl!! I am just a phone call away!! My clients typically end up having me house and dog sit at the same time. They trust me and if they are away they know they can count on me.
About: I have had cats and dogs of every kind since I was a baby. I started volunteering at a humane society and loved working with animals. Since graduating college, I have been working in the animal field for over a year now. I dog sit a friends house that has multiple animals that take different medications and specialized diets. My friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs during their days at work. I work 4 days during the week - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. (10 hour shifts). I consistently have Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday off. I am always willing to stop before and after my work days as well. I take my dogs to parks or in open fields in the woods and let them run freely while playing with them. I take other dogs on long walks and play with them in the yard. Sometimes will take them to get a pup cup (if they like car rides and have no stomach issues). I always ask owners what their pets love the most, whether it is walks, playing fetch or enjoying a favorite snack!

About: I genuinely love dogs and will give them the same care and attention I'd want for my own pet. My goal is to make them feel at home and keep their routine as normal as possible I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love throughout their stay! I can do whatever is easiest for you! I treat them like they're my own! They get plenty of food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also stick to whatever routine or special instructions the owner gives me.
About: I have years of experience caring, loving, and training dogs. Navigating three senior dogs (18 years+) at once I can administer oral and topical medication and understand the gentle and considerate care senior dogs require. I’ve trained two puppies from zero to age two in accordance with the Canine Good Citizen Standards. I believe in a fear free positive reinforcement training and caretaking style and am studying to help generally train service dogs (online training and I’ve shadowed a non-profit trainer). Pet care is ingrained in my daily and weekly schedule with the ability to work from WiFi, and it’s a blessing. From walking, movement, exercise, brain stimulating games, and general care - it is all included in my day. I care for your pets how I’d want someone to care for my pet - of the highest standard of attention and thoughtfulness in both my space and yours.
About: Hi, I actually go by Asher but Rover won't let me update my name yet. I'm a former direct support professional for disabled humans. Lydia was my first dog, a 75 pound shepherd mix with anxiety that I slowly trained because she came from living in a shelter her entire life. I know what it's like to worry about leaving your pet in a kennel where they can pick up diseases or pests, and they have dozens of animals to look after. In my home your pet would have their own space, be taken for walks regularly, and be given much more attention than at a kennel. Animals need attention in order to thrive, but sometimes busy lives make it hard to give all they deserve. Hiring help is the best way to meet their needs while you're taking care of the other parts of your life. March 2025 note: I am only able to do walks and drop ins at this time. My dog only accompanies me when prearranged with the owner's permission. I work overnights thurs-sat and have sun-weds free to do Rover care. Early mornings and evenings are best for me. I typically walk about 25k steps a day and can lift over 200lbs, so that carrying my 90lb dog in an emergency isn't an issue. This makes me ideal for large and giant pet owners, especially those with senior dogs. I have experience with senior and disabled pets. I've never hesitated to put an animal first when it's in distress, but my ideal is to help prevent your pets from ever becoming distressed in the first place. Have experience with high anxiety, reactive, and shy animals.

We have a fenced in yard that they love to play around in and we enjoy walks everyday it’s nice out! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company! I’m very accommodating if your dog needs extra love! I am always home so they won’t ever be left alone for long periods of time.
“Elizabeth was so great with our boys!! She sent great pictures from their walks & was so communicative. My dogs seemed to love her and they got to enjoy some time out of the house when we weren’t home for the day.”

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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
