“Marissa was amazing with my two dogs during our first week working together! They welcomed her and felt comfortable with her right away. She goes above and beyond to make sure our pups are taken care of!”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about our favorite sitter! Brady absolutely adores Hailey, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving, attentive hands. She treats him like family—always sending thoughtful updates, adorable photos, and making sure he’s happy, safe, and well cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter who goes above and beyond!”
About: My family and I have had our dog Misha for 10 years now. She’s a German shepherd Husky mix and along the years we’ve had to go through some things that have definitely added to my knowledge and experience with dogs. In addition to that I’ve been working at a doggy daycare for the past 3 years. There I come across many different breeds and sizes of dogs, all of which I am comfortable being around. We offer grooming and boarding services there so I’m very familiar with giving baths if needed and feeding and or giving any medications. I also was recently able to become certified in pet first Aid and CPR. Lastly I have had a previous dog walking job when I was a bit younger and I have done dog sitting for friends and family before. I’m currently working Part time. My normal schedule is typically Wednesday-Friday and then I work every other Saturday. So Sunday-Monday I’m normally pretty free and flexible. I live in a house that offers lots of room and plenty of yard space. Our yard is not fenced in but I have a long lead that could allow your dog to have the freedom to play and run around without running away. I also have a large crate if your dog needs to be crated. They can absolutely sleep in the bed with me too if they’d like. I also have a German shepherd Husky and if my dog and yours needed to be separated that’s not a problem at all. If I’m coming to your house I will make sure that I am following any rules you may have in place and follow any directions you’ve told me regarding your pup. Depending on if you have a yard or not I’ll let them have lots of play time and give them plenty of love and affection. Or I could take them on a nice walk to get some exercise. Either way if your baby comes to me or I come to them, I can promise they’ll be properly cared for!
About: I have cared for animals my whole life, whether my own pets or others through veterinary clinics and internships. I love animals and care for each one as if they’re are my own. I am available all week. I take care of my three cats and two dogs throughout the week and weekends, so why not open up to more amazing pets that are out there as well. I am very cautious when it comes to taking care of animals so any directions needed are well reviewed and looked over before any visit. Any special medications or schedules needed are no problem for me to follow. I have complete respect and understanding that some animals might be nervous because I am entering their space. A little patience and a soft gentle voice goes a long way to making them feel a bit more comfortable with an unfamiliar face.
About: I have a lot of experience with all different species, including wild birds and farm animals. This diverse experience has taught me how to cater to different animals needs and keep them stimulated. I have good basic medical knowledge in regards to animal anatomy and health and will be starting veterinary school in the fall! I am working and enjoying my time off before I start veterinary school in the fall in Gainesville Florida. I have a very flexible schedule and can cater to your pets needs. I can keep you updated and send pictures to make you feel comfortable and trusted in my services! Your animals comfort and care is my number one priority.
“Breanna came for a meet and greet and totally made us feel at ease. She is very punctual and her love for animals really shows. The pictures she shared of her visit with Brady were awesome! Thank you for allowing us to go about our day without any fur baby worries!”
“From the moment we met Laine, we knew she was the person we needed watching our 3 boys (cats) while we were away for a week. Laine has a very calming, soothing presence and that translated directly to her care while we were away. I left her a list of important info and FYI’s and she went well above and beyond, every single day. She treated our boys as if they were her own and was so communicative with us the entire time. I’m a bit of a nervous cat mom so this was invaluable and put my mind at ease far more than I could have anticipated. She sent amazing pictures and left our space better than even we left it. That’s saying something because our boys are very messy. She earned their trust with patience (along with some treats and catnip) and a special touch. She even let us know when one of our boys had a bit of an issue with diarrhea. Her attention to detail is second to none. I’m so grateful to have found her here, she truly cares about animals and gave us peace of mind that our boys were in the best hands possible. I truly believe that’s something money can’t buy! Laine is simply incredible, I’ll spend a long time trying to find the right words to thank her. We can’t wait to book her again for our trips!”
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for dogs and believe every one of them deserves patient, loving care. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and understood. Whether your dog is playful, shy, young, or older, I’ll treat them with real care and attention. No matter the age, all dogs are puppies to me! I am new to this, but I will make pet care a consistent part of my routine and plan my schedule carefully so your loved one gets the time and attention they need. I’m reliable with check-ins, feedings, playtime, cleaning, walks, and keeping pets company. I promise to do my best to be flexible and, more importantly, communicate clearly so owners always know their pets are being cared for. Will send cute pics for reassurance! :D I have always created a calm, safe, and clean environment for every pet in my care. I follow feeding instructions closely, respect each pet’s routine, and pay attention to their comfort, behavior, and boundaries. In a client’s home, I make sure to be respectful and dependable, and keep things tidy while giving their pet patient attentive care. Have only helped family but when I love another's pet to me they also become family. <3
“Sam was incredible. What was supposed to be a simple booking turned into my cat getting sick three days before my trip and needing medicine twice a day the entire time I was gone. Sam helped me feel at ease like my cats were in good hands the whole time, and was super communicative with everything. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Brittanie is very professional and respectful. My boys love seeing her. They feel comfortable around her. I have no problems when I get home. They are relaxed. Will definitely be booking again”
“Laura is wondering!!! Laura cared for my 13 year old fur baby for she came for three daily check-in’s for over a week.. I received a ton of pictures and updates, Which made the process that much easier!! I will definitely use Laura again!!”
“Katrina is great! Going to be using her a lot as I am returning to work one day a month. Even helped take care of my brothers scared of everything dog on last minute notice. Tilly obviously recognizes her and loves her! Thank you Katrina :)”
“Liana was so kind to come and help with our buddy. She showed up right on time and spent ample amount of time with him while we were out. I have no reservations about booking her again”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Somerset stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Somerset 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 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.
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 Somerset with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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 sitter.
