“Just wanted to say nothing but the best !!! Was a little nervous leaving my babies with someone i didn't know but Kerry made it easy not to worry went on a 3 day trip and my boys are a little shy and scared of people they dont know but by their second visit you couldn't tell the boys loved them. Would 100% have Kerry watch in on my boys on our next trip and future trips we take. Kerry you and your partner are the best ! Thank you for being so good to our boys !!!”
“Dylan arrived promptly and Luke absolutely adored him!! He was kind and gentle with my 7lb bundle of energy. I appreciated his graciousness with both Luke’s and my separation anxiety. I wish they lived near me for I’d contact them weekly! Margaret and Luke 🐶”
About: I have house and dog sat for 6 years. I have also handled cats. I have handled anywhere from puppies to senior dogs and love to take them on walks! I work full time during the school year as a pediatric COTA but part time over the summer. My schedule varies but I am available for the most part! I just moved into my own home but I grew up with cats and have had a dog for 10 years. Feeding them and making sure running water was available was my number one priority!
“10 out of 10! I was out of state to visit family, and C.P. was so great about sending daily photos/ updates of when he was dropping by. Will definitely be booking him again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and reliable. During drop-in visits, I focus on safety, enrichment, and clear communication so you feel confident every time you’re away. I work at a campground, so my schedule varies by season, but I plan in advance and communicate clearly. I focus on drop-in visits and short check-ins in your home, and I’m reliable about timing, updates, and following your pet’s routine. I care for pets in your home exactly as instructed, keeping their environment safe, clean, and consistent. I follow detailed routines for feeding, medication, and enrichment, and I send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: As a former pet owner I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are safe and comfortable. I have over 10 years of experience with all breeds and types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering dogs out of our childhood home. I was very involved even at the age of 6. We stopped fostering when I was around the age of 19. As of right now, Rover is my full time job. I absolutely love doing it and being around such wonderful people and pets. I do not offer boarding for pets right now as I do live with my father, step mother, and younger brother (seen in profile picture) but do plan on adding boarding services soon. While I do not offer boarding at this moment, I do enjoying staying at others homes, understanding their pets will have more comfort being in their own home. A guarantee I offer if I do stay in your home is you will come back to it cleaner than when you left it. Coming home to happy pets and a clean home is one of the best feelings, coming from personal experience. I love playing with the energetic pets or cuddling with the more relaxed ones. I hope to get to be part of you and your pets life’s and creating a strong bond and trustworthy relationship that you will come back to happy healthy fur-babies☺️ As of right now I use Rover full time. My calendar will stay up to date, but I will keep clients updated if any minor changes come up! I am more than comfortable sending texts or pictures for updates of your fur-baby. I will adjust to your dogs schedule. I love walking and playing with energetic dogs, or cuddling with the sleepy ones!
About: I offer in house boarding So your pet doesn’t have to sleep on a hard floor and be in a kennel. Your pet will be treated as though they are one of my own. If they sleep with you they sleep with me! They are my first priority! Come on out and do a meet and greet! Pet boarding is my biggest priority. Your pet will have all the attention, fun time and proper care they need during their visit no matter how long their visit is. I care for the pets I sit as though their own owner is caring for them. If they have food and water in front of them, 24/7 that will be something that they will have at my facility if they don’t and they have a different regiment that is something they will have in my facility if they have toys, beds, medication at their home that is what i will provide for them as well. If they are, or aren’t allowed on the furniture that is what i will do If they sleep in your bed with you at night they will sleep with me at night. If they go on multiple daily walks, that is what i will do. Your pet will be cared for just the way you care for them.
About: Let's have some fun! Besides growing up with dogs, I have had the opportunity to work with them in different fields over the last ten years. Volunteering, day cares, boarding facilities, veterinary clinics, and working as a trainer (my full time job) have all been wonderful learning opportunities and exposed me to a lot of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am the owner of Long Road Canine Training here in Ashland. Your dog's safety is my number one concern while they are in my care, followed by having a lot of fun and meeting their needs throughout the day. Their days will include exercise, free time in the yard, food puzzles, naps, play time and lots of affection (if they like that). I have lots of dog toys including balls, frisbees, tugs, and a flirt pole. Visiting dogs do sleep in crates at night time**. For boarding please bring with you: Food A chew for the crate 1-2 toys they simply can't live without A blanket / bed for the crate *I have wire and airline style crates as well as bowls so you don't need to pack those unless we discuss otherwise. Being a dog trainer over the last 5 years, taking care of dogs is my every day routine. Fitting another dog or two into my schedule is no problem! Clients that are here will be crated for bedtime, and occasionally during the day when I can't take a dog with me. We have a large fenced in back yard, a treadmill and a park close by for any dogs wanting to go on an adventure. There is also a creek in the back - promise your dog will be bathed before coming home!
About: I make sure they’re taken care of properly just like the owner wants. I’m all around an animal lover. I enjoy the walks, playing, and bonding. Availability is whenever. I love teaching dogs tricks! I like setting goals for myself and animals. I like making them feel loved. Giving them the attention and care that they need. I will do anything for anyone. I love helping others. If your animal needs special care then that’s what they will get. I will give them the best care that you ask for. I have a year old puppy that loves attention. He would love a playmate as well. We have had him since he was a month old and he’s been potty trained since about 2 weeks after we had picked him up.
About: I have taken care many dogs in my family. As well as senior dogs that needed medication when it came to feeding time. I have taught my dogs to do little tricks. Pet care can fit into my daily and weekly routine very easily and I have a car so I can be to the home on time. I follow what the owner wants for the pets. I will always make it a point to have the pet go to the bathroom before I leave, and play with toys or outside before I fully leave each time.
About: I have worked with animals pretty much my whole life. My first job was at a doggy daycare in Highschool. Loved it! And now I am a Registered Veterinary Technician that works with small animals and exotics at an animal hospital in their Emergency Department. I am CPR certified and have a lot of knowledge when it comes to having to give medications/knowing about certain health issues. I currently work as a Registered Veterinary Technician full time. I work on tues, wed, thurs and sat 2-12am. So I am available every morning really but Sun, mon, and fridays I am free all day. I am a very active, reliable, hardworking person. I would love nothing more than to come to you and I can provide dog walks and/or home visits!
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on farm experience caring for multiple species, combined with over a year of professional kennel work. I’m confident handling a variety of temperaments and routines, and I have long-term references who have trusted me with their animals for years I provide pet care full time, which means I have consistent availability for drop-ins, walks, and extended stays. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize your pet’s routine and be reliable when you need coverage. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and household routines exactly as provided. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I never allow unsafe interactions with other animals. I respect your home as if it were my own — keeping it clean, secure, and organized while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease.
About: I have grown up with my own dog my whole life. Besides my own pup, I have experience watching serval different breeds of dogs (often very energetic). As well as, I have taken good care of a few very cute kitties I work a part time job where I may be away for 4-5 hours max but have a flexible schedule and will make sure to find time to help your pet feel well loved! As well as my evenings are ways free. I have good awareness of surrounding and can take good care of your pup while on plenty of walks and make sure they get the care they need.
“Makenzie and Jared were great with tulip! She was so happy to be at their house, they were incredibly kind and communicative and sent lots of pictures! Thanks for taking care of my pup!”
About: My pet care started when I was 6 years old, I was known as the neighborhood dog catcher. If any of my neighbor's dogs got loose/ran away they would call me to bring them back. I had a 100% success rate every time! I have a love and passion for all animals and it has shown since I could talk. I have 2 dogs of my own, a snake, and fish! One of my dogs is reactive and I have taken online reactivity classes to recognize dog body language and how to work with triggers, so the "problem" dogs are no problem to me! My other dog is a senior so I also have personal experience with senior care and taking things slower for the seasoned pups. All dogs are welcome here! I have very flexible availability and I am willing to work with everyone on getting dates and times that work best for their pets needs! I pay attention to body language and focus on providing a calm and nurturing environment where your pet feels safe and loved. I carefully follow directions and make sure you have total peace of mind while your pet(s) are in my care!
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. It’s not a job it’s a passion. I am full time active duty in the military so my schedule varies I work essentially a firefighter type schedule so schedule will be custom with each client. On my days off I will be available all day. I am able to travel for my clients. I am patient and enjoy pets. My care will be honest and done with integrity and be authentic.
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! My family has always had multiple pets in our home at a time. I currently own a dog named Jax, and two cats named Milo and Lee! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperament. I have taken care of puppies, blind/deaf dogs, big dogs who like to take you on a walk instead 😅, cuddly and energetic labs, shy dogs who may hide, and I love them all the same! I am a nanny, so I also take my part in loving and taking care of their animals in their home or when they may travel! As a pet mom myself, I understand how big of a decision it is to search and trust for someone to look after your fur baby. That’s why I will always focus on communication and providing updates and pictures so you can feel at ease and comfortable. All animals are family, and I will treat your pet as if they were my own. When I come to your home, I promise to come with all the extra snuggles, belly rubs, or anything your pet may need to feel comfortable, keeping up with routines, required needs, and all different personalities. If your pet may need special medications, I also have experience with that area! I’m currently a college student, home full time for the summer! I go to a community college, so long term care is also available! Some hours may just change once I start again this Fall semester :) I care for each pet as if they were my own. My animals are my babies, my world, and I expect it is the same for all pet owners. You putting your trust in me to care for your babies means the world to me, and you won’t regret it! :)
“It was so nice to find Annette to take care of our beautiful Skylar. She stayed in communication to let us know how it was going, took great photos n played with Skylar. I would definitely hire her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,377 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Spencer. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Spencer 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Spencer. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
