About: Ive worked at a pet resort for past two years providing doggy daycare and kennel care to boarders. I did dog walking and enrichment at the humane society. Spent most of my time there caring for elder dogs and ones without company. Ive also fostered elder dogs and puppies. At home in Florida I also own two dogs a 2 year old golden doodle and a 16 year old boxer. I am free every morning and evening throughout the week. I have class Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 12-3 and Tuesdays and Thursdays 9:30-1:30. I have practices for an two at night usually 5:30-7:30. I am free any other time though. Im usually a very active person so I will make sure your dog is getting lots of care and activity. This will depend on the service. If you are boarding your pet will stay in my home and be nicely taken care of and fed at appropriate feeding schedules. I am very loving on all dogs and great at building their trust. Daycare the dog would stay during the day and experience a lot of energy relief allowed to bring siblings with. Dog walking again giving great exercise and gets nice stops with lot of loving.
“Katie did a great job with the dinner dropin for my boys. No fault to her, I missed a message she sent asking about their potty break. Even though she saw it after she left, she went back to let them out. Outstanding work ethic and will use Katie again for more visits and stays.”
“reached out to Addysin at the last minute for drop-in visits for my dog, Arena, and I’m so grateful she was available. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of my pup! I will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Arena and I are very happy with Addysin! 😊”
“I’m very happy I found Carmen on Rover. I know my dog Arena loves people and being spoiled, but she’s usually very nervous around new people at first. Carmen has been incredibly patient, giving Arena the time and space she needs to feel safe and get comfortable. I truly appreciate how great she’s been during this first week, checking in on Arena while I’m at work. I fully trust her to take my pup on walks and care for her.”

“We first used Megan on a Saturday when we were gonna be gone all day. The last 2 times I've needed her very last minute due to family circumstances that required me to be out of town. She has found a way to work me in and I appreciate it so much :). She always lets me know when she arrives and leaves and sends pictures. I'm glad I found her!”
“Cayli is my go to sitter! She is phenomenal! I have used many times from overnight visits to bathroom breaks. I have a very elderly dog who needs special care and I can be away from home with complete confidence that my dog and home are very well taken care of. We have raved about her and referred her to others who love her too. She is great!”
“I'm very pleased with the services that Tricia G provided for us. This was something very new to us cause we normally have family to help out but they wasn't available at the time. But I can say that I would recommend her to anyone that needs service and we would most definitely us her again. Thanks so much Tricia we greatly appreciate it.”
About: Hi! My name is Kasey, and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and caring for them. I have years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I currently care for several of my own animals as well, so I’m very used to different routines, energy levels, and individual needs. I also have veterinary/animal care experience, which has helped me become comfortable handling pets calmly and safely, including giving medications if needed. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I always do my best to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, supported, and at ease. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, anxious, or just needs a little extra patience and love, I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. I also love sending updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and welcoming experience for every pet I care for ❤️ Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently work, and with school starting soon, I’ll mainly be available mornings, afternoons, and flexible hours when possible. I do my best to keep my schedule organized so I can give every pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since I already care for several pets of my own, I’m very used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleaning, medications, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care never feels like a chore to me Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is very important to me. I always try to make animals feel comfortable and cared for, whether I’m visiting them in their home or spending extra time helping them settle in while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I’m happy to adjust to whatever helps them feel most secure. I also have veterinary/animal care experience, so I’m comfortable handling pets safely and giving medications if needed. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort levels, and I always make sure pets are supervised, cared for, and treated with patience and kindness. I’ll also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel reassured while away from their pets
“She was a wonderful sitter! I really loved how much my kids seemed to enjoy her presence while we were gone. 10/10 would recommend and book her again!! She was very responsive, very thorough, let me know if anything happened, and was on time!!”
About: I lived with my roommates two big dogs in my time in undergrad. Also cared for my family dog Tango who was a black lab. So I have good experience on the process of caring for pets. I work during the day on weekdays but I am remote on Thursdays and Friday, so I would primarily be available all day Thursdays - Saturdays. Sundays I am available until 5:00 PM. I have a townhome close to many dog parks and dog friendly trails. My home is also spacious enough for a small-to-medium sized cage or a large dog bed. I promise that I will put measures in place to safety proof my home to accommodate your pet!
About: I’m a big dog and cat lover. I have owned and taken care of my own pets for at least the last 6+ years. I take pride in a job well done. I have been working for a vet for the last few weeks and have picked up a few key thing to look for if your animal is sick or having problems. I am home most of the time which gives me great opportunity to focus on your fur babies. When you leave your pet in my care it will be as if you never left. I will give them the undivided attention they need to keep them calm and happy. I love all animals and look forward to taking care of your fur babies.
About: I am a self-professed animal lover and my care for animals started with our family dog, Kip, when I was just 8 years old. Since then I have cared for and walked neighbors, friends, family and colleagues pets. I love being outside and will ensure your pets are well looked after, walked and treated as one of the family. My schedule is currently very flexible so if you need care last minute please do get in contact. I have my own transport so can make my way to you swiftly. I typically work most weekdays and weekends if scheduled in advance (if appropriate). Simply, I will do what ever is necessary to make sure your pets is happy and well looked after. Whilst I do not offer overnight home boarding (I have two elderly hounds), should they ever need to come to my home I have a fenced in back yard. I am happy to abide by crate training if required and always have toys, a bed and training treats on hand, just in case. I ALWAYS bring water on my walks and plan my days to ensure we are not walking in the heat of the day. I am happy to walk early in the morning and later at night. I have used cool coats before so I am also happy to add this to my routine. I never try and rush a pet. Whether it is a nervous cat or young pup, I take my time, not jumping straight in. I try not to let them off the leash immediately so we can build trust and I do not rush them to be my friend.

- 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.

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.

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.
