“Liv was absolutely fantastic with my big boy! He cried at windows when she left and he hasn't done that with anyone but me. She actually played with him when she was over and he was SO happy and relaxed after she left. I will most definitely be using her again when I need pet care again!”

“Jennifer was excellent, especially when it came to meeting my 12 year-old fear reactive Australian Sheppard. We took the meet and greet slow to make sure everyone was comfortable. It worked because their first check-in visit went very well.”

About: I've had pets since I was born and have always cared deeply for their happiness and health. I've been asked by many friends, family and acquaintances to watch their animals and have always done a wonderful job. Part of what makes me good at it is that I genuinely love each pet I take care of, even if I only see them once. Also can administer medication’s and have experience with giving insulin shots. I’m currently working but retiring in June 2026, but I can try to accommodate as best as possible until then… after that I will have an open schedule. I can do drop-in visits to walk, feed, give medication and play with your pets while you are away. I will treat your pets as though they are my own.
“Idaly, took care of my fur babies while we were on our family vacation. My dog Teddy is a rescue and gets high anxiety. Idaly, was very kind, loving and caring to my Teddy. My fur babies always looked happy in every picture that she sent me. my two cats loved her as well! With this, I was able to relax on my vacation. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again. Thanks again 😊”

“Maria did a great job and was very communicative with me. Everything went smoothly and I greatly appreciate her help. She took photos every day and made sure that everything was squared away each day.”

About: As a passionate dog caregiver, I bring delight in providing engaging and attentive experiences for your furry friend(s). From energetic games of fetch to spirited tug-of-war sessions, I ensure your dog enjoys ample playtime tailored to their preferences. Beyond play, I prioritize their well-being by maintaining a clean environment. This includes promptly cleaning up after bathroom breaks and tidying feeding areas. Rest assured, your dog will receive affectionate care, including plenty of cuddles and pets, making their time away from you both enjoyable and comfortable. As a part-time professional, I offer dedicated pet care during early mornings (6 AM to 8 AM) and evenings (4 PM to 10 PM) on weekdays. On weekends, my schedule is more flexible, allowing me to accommodate various pet care needs, including extended stays or multiple visits. During the summer months, I often have increased availability, depending on my work commitments, and I’m eager to discuss how I can support your pet care requirements during this time. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I prioritize providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I tailor my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel secure and well cared for. In climbers homes, I respect and maintain the pet’s regular routine to minimize stress. This includes feeding them on schedule, providing fresh water, administering any necessary medications, and ensuring they get the appropriate amount of exercise and attention. I also keep the home tidy, following any specific instructions provided by the owner to ensure a smooth experience for both the pet and their family. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering them love, patience, and attentive care to make their time away from their owner as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
About: Experienced pet sitter and animal lover. I've worked in animal rescue, done trap-neuter-release, cared for a colony of feral cats for a decade, and fostered more kittens and adult cats than I can count. I offer visits, walks, overnight stays, or I can live at your house while you are away. I am a nature and wildlife photographer so I have gotten to know, to one degree or the other, all of the animals around my home, which, I believe, helps to make me comfortable with all types of pets. I also offer pet portraits! I have experience with all of the usual pets, plus a few unusual ones too. I will take good care of your dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small animals and even tarantulas or insects. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and I will let you know how the visits are going. Your pets will be safe and well cared for with me. I have a regular part time job with a flexible schedule so can be available just about anytime. Let me know what you need and we can work it out. Home visits run about a 1/2 an hour and include, depending upon your pet, a walk, poop scoop, litter box cleaning, feeding, watering and treat dispensing, and pats and cuddles.
“Absolutely incredible service. Julie’s attention to details was outstanding. We would recommend Julie over and over again. If you want someone to care for your fur babies while you are away, this is the person to contact. My cat Elsa is not the friendliest to strangers but she warmed right up to Julie two days in. Look forward to have her take care of my babies when we go on our next trip. The visit information that I received assured me that my pets were in good hands. Always on time and great communication with me with the status of the each visit. Julie thank you so much !”

“We recently added a new cat to our family and were a bit anxious about leaving both kitties while we were away. Kathryn gave us a completely worry-free experience! She treated our cats like they were her own—playing with them, interacting daily, and making sure they felt loved and cared for. We received detailed updates and adorable daily photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her service was worth every penny, and we’ll absolutely be reaching out to Rover and Kathryn again the next time we travel. Highly recommend!”

“Kimberly did a spectacular job watching our cats. She saved all the worry we typically have when we leave our pets home while away. I recommend Kimberly to anyone who needs pet sitting!”

“Our cats were well taken care of by Christina while on vacation. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Definitely plan on using Christina again.”

“Grace is phenomenal!! She took amazing care of my dog Belle and is super responsible! Update pictures and videos throughout the day and always arrived on time for feedings and walks. I'm so happy with my first experience using Rover. I'm so happy Belle was looked after with such great care!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparta
This is the 3rd time we booked with Christen. She was wonderful with my dog, Pearl, who gets really anxious around new people. She took her on walks, cleaned up after her, feed her and made sure to spend extra time with her during a thunderstorm. Christen was reliable and we will be using her again in the future. It’s hard to find someone that my dog feels comfortable around, so when we do, it’s like winning the lottery.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sparta stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Sparta 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 .

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.

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.
