About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my two-year background as a dog training assistant, where I not only helped dogs learn new skills but also provided attentive care. I bring a friendly and hardworking approach, backed by years of experience in customer service. Back at my parents home, I use to share my space with three dogs and four cats, showcasing my deep commitment and love for animals. Your pets are not just in good hands; they're in caring and experienced hands that understand their unique needs, whether it's training puppies, providing senior care, or simply offering a friendly and loving environment. I'm available for pet care from mornings to afternoons during the week. On weekends, I work part-time at my brother's restaurant. I am also very flexible. For pet care, I offer services both in my home and at my client's place. My building provides a convenient pet care center, and animals are warmly welcomed in my apartment. Currently, my roommates have pets, creating a pet-friendly environment. Moreover, the area is close to various dog parks, providing ample opportunities for outdoor activities and playtime.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 5 years. Since I became a dog mom of a tiny puppy, I have studied to be the best at taking care not only of my dog but also neighbors and family dogs. I’m currently studying part time so I would have time to take care of your pets and provide for everything they need in a safe and loving environment. I can take care of your pets at my home or your home depending on what’s best for you and me and which one works with our schedule.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner wth personal experience raising puppies, caring for adopted senior dogs, and supporting pets with various health conditions. I have been pet sitting for over a decade and have two years of managerial experience in a professional dog daycare and boarding facility. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified and hold two levels of professional pet boarding certification through the Professional Pet Boarding Association. I also have additional experience in animal care and wildlife rehabilitation. Through my professional background, I have experienced caring for a wide variety of breeds and temperaments, managing various health conditions, and safely administering medications. I would love to provide that priceless peace of mind for your fur babies! Animals are the heart of my everyday life. My mornings start with caring for my three dogs and letting my chickens out for some morning free-ranging while I clean their coop. Afterwards, I follow the schedule that I thoughtfully planned the night before, making sure that I have plenty of time between visits and travel so each animal receives the attention and care they deserve. If I don't have an overnight sitting, I come home throughout the day to take my dogs out and give my chickens some late-day time to forage. If I'm unable to make it home in the evening, my partner happily steps in to care for our furry family members. My days are joyfully filled with animals! I take pride in bringing the same patience, compassion, and attentiveness to caring for other people's pets as I do my own. I care for every pet as an individual, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, comfort level, and their specific needs. Through my professional experience, I have cared for an extensive variety of dog breeds, temperaments, ages, and health conditions, including dogs who require extra patience, supervision, or specialized care. The fulfillment I receive from helping an animal feel safe and comfortable is a major reason I chose animal care as my career path. I am attentive to changes in behavior or well-being and take every concern seriously. My professional background has also taught me to remain calm and level-headed during emergencies. I believe communication with owners is just as important as hands-on care, so I make it a priority to keep owners informed and comfortable while their pets are in my care.

About: I have babysat and pet-sat since I was 16! I would feed the neighbors animals and take them on walks. When sitting I took care of the kids and the pets. I have taken care of bunnies, cats, and dogs of all sizes!! Pets feed off of your energy and can feel your emotions and that is why we connect so well!! I have fed, walked, groomed, and cuddled with our furry friends and love to spend time with them. I've owned four dogs, including my English Mastiff, Moose, and have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need medication or extra support. Whether your pet needs exercise, engagement, or companionship, I'm ready for the job! I am currently going to school for my masters and have breaks throughout the day to talk walks and care for your pet! I have evenings free and can board most nights of the week when planned! I have plenty of time to play, cuddle, and love on your furry friend. I have a fenced yard and no pets, so can easily adapt to your pets style and needs. I live in a walkable, quiet, pet friendly, family neighborhood. I live with 2 girls, also college graduates who both work as EMTs! We do not keep anything out that would be a danger to a furry friend and have an open floor space comfortable for lounging and whatever needs your pet has! :))) I'm able to step away from my responsibilities to ensure your pets receive consistent attention and care. I always follow your instructions and respect your home and your pet's routines. I focus on creating a calm, positive environment, whether that means adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or keeping your pet engaged through walks and play. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and well cared for.

About: I’ve always had animals in my life and taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. There is nothing quite like having a pet; nurturing it yourself, forming that special bond and learning all those quirks that make each animal special. My own dog Maxie is very social and even at 10 years old is super playful. I wanted to be a pet sitter because I enjoy being around animals and taking care of them. It always makes my day meeting a new dog. I am comfortable with any kind of breed and any age. My hours are flexible and I have over 20 years experience. I am a teacher, I generally work from 7-2 but I available before 7 to make sure they are well fed. I can also come back on my lunch breaks to make sure they get some play time and need to go for walks as well as anytime after 2:30. I am also available on Saturdays and most Sundays. I would bring toys and treats for your fur baby so that they feel comfortable with me. I would ask their owners what their routine is and if they have any medical concerns I should be aware of. I would send them pictures of their pets throughout the day and keep their owners regularly updated on how they are doing. I normally walk my dog 3 times a day and feed him twice a day ( morning and night ) with snacks in the middle of the day with plenty of water and potty breaks. I would be doing the same things too. I usually play with my dog first thing when I get home and before we go to bed. I would do the same things too when I pet sit.

Most bookings cost between $18 and $56 per visit. 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.

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 Shoreham 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. 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 .

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.

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.

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.
