About: Experienced with a wide range of breeds, sizes, energy levels, and play styles, from active working and sporting breeds to relaxed companion dogs. I tailor my care to each dog's individual needs, personality, and routine. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a 5 year old Blue Heeler mix and no children, so I have lots of free time for pet care I want to keep your pet’s day as routine as possible, whether that requires set walking, enrichment, or nap times. I will ensure my time with them is comforting and fun.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, as well as cats and other small pets. I’m attentive, patient, and adaptable to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, or simply companionship and cuddles, I’m dedicated to making sure they feel happy and comfortable. My patience and calm approach are especially helpful when caring for puppies who are still learning routines and senior dogs who may need extra support, gentleness, and attention. I work full-time during the week, which allows me to offer pet care services after 5 PM Monday through Thursday, along with open availability on weekends. I’m also available for overnight care and happy to accommodate special requests, including extended stays and flexible care arrangements whenever possible. I always prioritize safety and comfort while caring for animals. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I supervise pets during walks, playtime, meals, and outdoor time. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and routines, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I live in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home where pets can feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: I’m an Animal Science (Pre-Vet) student with hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, horses, and other animals through veterinary, grooming, farm, and shelter work. I’ve worked in a feline animal hospital and have experience with low stress handling, feeding routines, medication support, bathing, enrichment, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort in animals. What sets me apart is that I combine real animal care experience with a fun, patient, and reliable personality. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. As a college student studying Animal Science (Pre-Vet), I love spending my free time around animals and can dedicate plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care to pets throughout the day. I’m available for weekday and weekend care and can adjust to different pets’ routines and needs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and clean living areas. In my home, while I don’t have a backyard, I live in a safe neighborhood and make up for it with long walks, exercise, and lots of attention and enrichment. I pay close attention to animal behavior and body language so I can recognize signs of stress or discomfort early and help pets feel relaxed and loved!

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, and I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and pets with unique personalities. I have my own 8-year-old chow-shepherd mix, so daily long walks, patience, and attentive care are already a huge part of my routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of slower pacing, medication routines, mobility awareness, and extra comfort and patience. Whether your pet loves active walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply calm companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, observant, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and caring for my own dog every day. I genuinely enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving animals attention and care, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I truly look forward to. I adapt my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, giving medicine, potty breaks, check-ins, cuddle time, or simply providing calm companionship, I’m happy to do it all! I know how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions closely while giving every animal plenty of attention, patience, and care.

Jordan was great with my cats, even though one of them was too shy most of the time to come out. My other cat got a lot of attention and enjoyed playing with Jordan. Jordan is reliable, communicates well, and it's apparent that she loves caring for all kinds of pets. I would have Jordan come back anytime!
Hannah helped us out agreeing to a drop-in visit on short notice. She did a great job tending to our 10 ½ yr. old chocolate lab, fed him, gave him his medications, walked and played with him and sent photos during her visit. We were pleased and appreciative of her help and would definitely recommend her services.
Trusting Jewel with our animals and our home was easy from the very beginning. She was so kind, dependable, and easy to work with. She was incredibly compassionate and patient with our aging dog, which meant so much to us. Jewel also went above and beyond in caring for our home. She even vacuumed, which was such a thoughtful extra and truly appreciated. Knowing she cared for our animals and our home as if they were her own gave us such peace of mind. I would highly recommend Jewel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable person to help with their animals and home. We are so thankful we found her!

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 .
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 .
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.
