“When our regular dog-sitter couldn't help us out, we weren't sure what to do. Finding Regan on Rover was a gift. Our dog, Maggie, was comfortable and spoiled while spending the weekend with Regan. She treated our Maggie like one of her own. I will definitely be sending Maggie to stay with her again.”
“This was our first time booking with Melissa and our dog would be there 9 days!! She was very welcoming and took great care of our dog. She sent me daily updates, pictures and videos. Our dog got along great with her two dogs. I would highly recommend boarding with Melissa!!”
“Gabby had the best time for her stay away from me. She received excellent care with Angi. I received pictures of Gabby every day and Angi filled me in how she was doing. Angi said she was a very good girl. Thank you Angi. Jeannie”
“Ashley and her family took such awesome care of my two dogs and my kitty! I was sure they weren't going to want to leave. You couldn't ask for anyone better than this family to take your pets in to their home. Thank you so much!”
“Debra was incredible! She was so sweet and accommodating. She was able to work with my schedule and went out of her way to make my life easier. She has great experience with cats and dogs alike. I could not recommend her more highly!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She was so friendly and communicative about when she would check in, and she sent photos to update us. She gave our fur babies lots of attention and love. We will absolutely ask her to cat-sit again if we need to! Thanks again, Lizzie!”
“Literally the best dog sitter ever! Itzel has good reviews for a reason. My 3 month old puppy Suki stayed with her for 5 days. She kept me updated with pictures and videos and she made sure she got her energy out at the dog park and walks! My pupper was very happy during her stay and even made friends with Itzel's two dog. I was very relax while I was traveling, knowing my puppy was getting the greatest care and love. Itzel took care of my Suki like she was her own! If I ever need someone to dog sit again I will definitely be taking her to Itzel!”
“This was my first time using Rover and/or boarding our cat. Maria was so kind and thoughtful with answering all my questions and giving updates! Every picture she sent really showed how comfortable my cat was getting and that she was making sure to give him love and attention. We would absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Alexis was very flexible, accommodating, and communicative. We appreciated her willingness to watch our fur babies at a late notice and work around our schedule. Charlie and Snickers were well taken care of.”
“Our girls were so happy staying with Josie! I loved getting daily updates and seeing how much they got to play outside and see their big smiles playing with Josie’s dog. Josie was very understanding and had great communication when we had to make some last minute changes to the beginning of their stay. We are so thankful for Josie!”
“Couldn’t be happier with Jordan. She sent photos daily and kept me updated. Thank you Jordan for keeping my fur baby and taking such good care of her. Jordan was even will to make sure my dog received her daily meds.”
“I’m always a little hesitant when taking my dog to a new home/sitter. Mikayla has it figured out! She used a belly band for my boy which helped my nerves of him marking where a previous dog may have marked inside. She also updated me to let me know he was doing great and making himself right at home! Definitely recommend!!”
About: Hi! I am Bethani! I have seven years of experience as a professional pet groomer, and two years of experience as a pet sitter. I am at CPR and first aid certified. I have 4 pups and 1 cat of my own, with ages ranging from 6 months to 9 years, so I am comfortable with any age! I know the daily Tasks and care that come with caring for a senior pup. I currently participate in FastCat, Barn hunt, confirmation, and grooming competitions with some of my pups. I love traveling and keeping happy with my dogs! I am comfortable taking care of any size dog or cat 😊 I do also have experience in caring for a small animals, animals and reptiles I am a professional pet groomer, so I get to spend my entire day with wonderful dogs! I would love to spend time with your fur kiddos while you are away. I work a full time 8hr job (not Rover) Monday-Thursday, however I’m still happy to watch pups during these days. I am currently able to offer boarding in my home for dogs that are comfortable around both dogs and cats. When I visit your home I will be clean and tidy and clean up any messes that are needed
About: I’ve had many pets and animals. I have also dog sat quite a bit in home for 5 dogs at a time. I am very good with animals and very patient. I am a student at South Dakota State University. My schedule makes it so I can get back home every few hours so I can check up on things and let them out. I have a very flexible schedule. My roommate has a little male dachshund. My yard doesn't have a fence because I live in an apartment. I do have a sliding glass door that leads straight out to the grass because I am on the first floor. I am very flexible about how I care for pets, so I can do it however you'd like.
“Heather was so great. Not only did she take care of our baby, but we got frequent pics and updates, which made being away, so much easier. Roxy will most definitely be back if/when care is needed. ☺️”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Smiths Park home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Smiths Park.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Smiths Park sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
