About: Hi! I’m Maddy, and I’ve been a dog owner for almost 7 years, so I know how much our pets mean to us! 🐶 I absolutely love animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving them some extra attention, or simply keeping them company. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your furry friend, so I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and well taken care of while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pet and become someone you can trust to care for them! ❤️ I currently am a college student with a lot of extra time on my hands! I can do early mornings, mid mornings, afternoons, and nights. It really will depend on my class schedule. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so I can care for them in a way that works best for them. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, cuddles, meals, fresh water, and plenty of attention! In a client’s home, I’ll respect their space and follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, bathroom breaks, and any specific routines. My goal is for your pet to feel happy and cared for while you’re away, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
About: I’ve had a dog ever since I can remember. I’ve had friends, family and other close individuals rely on me to watch their pets. I personally love pet sitting. Currently, I am a student track and field athlete at Black Hill State University and I go to school full-time. I am free in the evenings and early mornings and sometimes in the afternoon. I will take dogs on walks if they do not have a backyard that is fenced and I will play with your pet outside and inside the house, depending on weather.
About: I have grown up with big dogs. I have cared for many different animals. I am familiar with giving shots and medication (had diabetic dogs).

I am super respectful of your space and property. I want to ensure safety for your pet while you are gone. Making sure everything is locked up before I leave.

I have always loved fur babies and would love to take care of yours! My family and I used to have a yellow lab but we had to put him down a couple of years ago, he was my favorite part of the family, and I fed him and gave water when needed when my dad was gone for work, I took him on runs which don't turn out well with a lab, we went on a lot of walks. I would prefer your fur baby to stay in its home and I can make the trip! Getting out is good for me!
About: I grew up around all kinds of animals from horses to cats and have always been fond of animals in general. I grew up with dogs and even helped train them when we got a new puppy. I’ve pet sat for family friends and neighbors in the past even to the point of caring for my neighbors horses when they were out of town. I worked at a humane society working with both cats and dogs and have experience with skittish or nervous dogs. I am currently a part time student and actively looking for a part time job so as of now pet care can be a main priority allowing me to focus on them most everyday. Keep in mind for the current semester I have morning classes in Rapid on Tuesday and Thursday I’ve dealt with a variety of pets that were trained different ways and can adjust how they need to be treated whether they are mainly outside pets, free-roaming indoor pets, or pets trained with a crate. I believe I can build rapport with most any pet if I am given the time to let them become comfortable.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Spearfish
We couldn’t have been happier with the way Beth took care of our two dogs! We always get nervous booking sitters since we have a large dog, but from the moment we met her we could tell she was very experienced! She gave us updates each time she went and even went out of her way to walk them early one morning after a long work shift. They were happy and thriving when we got home. Thank you, Beth! We’ll definitely be booking again!
Samantha was incredibly kind, friendly, professional, reliable, and a very caring animal lover. Felt very confident and comfortable with her taking care of our cat's needs at our home while we were on vacation. Excellent video updates in a timely manner and great communications. I highly recommend her for all your pets' needs and will definitely look to her for future sitting.
Erica & Joseph are by far the best & most thorough people we've had care for our dog! They sent many updates & photos & you can just tell how much they love animals! We feel very comforted knowing that they will be taking care of our pets & home for a week in an upcoming trip! Thanks so much!

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.

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.
