“Samantha - Thank you for the commentary on Sparkie’s Rover Cards (like when he is “too distracted”). Thanks also for sweeping up the ants (and your note)! TTYS!”

About: Hi! I’m Lexi – a dependable, dog-loving caregiver ready to give your pup the best time ever! I offer boarding for pups of all sizes and personalities. I have two friendly, playful dogs of my own—Mavis and Finn—who love making new friends and help make every stay a fun, social experience. When your dog is here for an overnight stay, they’ll be treated like family. My home is a safe, dog-friendly environment where your pup can feel relaxed, get plenty of love, and burn off some energy with lots of play and attention. We live in a home within a quiet neighborhood, with a nicely sized fenced-in backyard—perfect for running, sniffing, and supervised outdoor play. I also have a medium-sized crate available if your dog finds comfort in having their own space. And the best part? I’m currently home full-time, so your pup will have my full attention and care throughout the day. I have experience handling all kinds of dogs, from high-energy pups to more chill companions, and I’m committed to keeping them happy, healthy, and safe while in my care. You’ll also get regular updates and photos so you can see all the tail-wagging fun! Services I offer: • Pet Boarding – A cozy home-away-from-home with built-in playmates Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to make sure it’s the paw-fect fit! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! Since I’m currently home full-time, I’m able to give each dog in my care plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day. I build my schedule around their needs—whether it’s playtime in the backyard, walks around the neighborhood, feeding, or quiet cuddle time. With my own two social dogs, Mavis and Finn, there’s always a good mix of activity and companionship, and I make sure every pup feels right at home. I care for pets in my home as if they were my own! During boarding and daycare, dogs enjoy a safe, welcoming environment with plenty of playtime, affection, and supervision. We have a fenced-in backyard for outdoor fun and two friendly resident dogs, Mavis and Finn, who love to play and help new pups feel at ease. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided. I also have a medium-sized crate available if your dog prefers a cozy spot to relax. For dog walking, I make sure each pup gets a safe, enjoyable walk at their own pace with lots of sniffing and movement. I always provide water breaks if needed and send updates so you know how your dog’s doing. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home—whether they’re staying for a few hours or a few days.

“Emily was amazing! This was my first time having a sitter come over to drop-in on my dog and cat while I was out of town for the weekend. Emily was so accommodating and I felt like she really went the extra mile to make sure my pets were comfortable and cared for while I was away. Knowing she was checking in on them was very reassuring!”

About: I have been an animal lover all my life! I started pet sitting when I was 12 and grew up to work in the pet industry on the corporate side of things. I have been a full time dog walker and have spent my entire life loving my own pets, family pets, and all the fur babies my friends care for as well. I'm self employed and going to school part time. Rover is the perfect fit for my schedule! I love that I can make my own routine as my schedule is currently extremely flexible. I follow all written and verbal instructions to a T. I check in regularly and provide updates as well and photos and videos of the pet.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember because I love it! I’ve grown up around animals and know how important they are to people. I look at my pets as family, and love them deeply. I own one dog and fight the urge to get more everyday!! I love excersive and since my dog, Oaklee, is a bird dog and a brittany, he needs a lot of it. With my personal experience I can handle the laziest kitty cat to the craziest, most high energy, dog. You name it, I can love it.

About: Background/experience in veterinary medicine. I am very comfortable with giving medication, taking care of special needs/senior pets. I treat every pet as if they are my own. I currently own my own equine business which means I set my own hours. I am a very active person so including other animal duties into my daily life is not difficult. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I would do everything I could to keep them comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. Even if that means sitting on the floor while they take a nap so they don't feel alone.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Slighs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 997 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Slighs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Slighs. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
