About: Hello, my name is James! I don't remember a time where I did not live with a dog around the house. My first dog was a Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever, “duck toller for short”. named Trouble. He loved to guard around house and bark into the darkness. My current dogs are a pair of tiny Australian terriers named Chaos and Nemesis. They love to chase the wildlife in our forest, but are always down for pets in snuggling up. Given my experience growing up with dogs I hope that I can get to know your canine friends and spend more of my time with the creatures I love. Whether its a quick check in, a dog walk, or few hours of pet/housesitting ; I have plenty of time in my schedule to make for pet care. I will always try and treat the pets I am taking take of with as much love as their owners share with them. Plus a few extra treats.
About: I have been a cat owner since i was 10, and adore all animals! I volunteered at the MSPCA, where I adopted our family cat who lived to be 18, and took care of dogs of all ages and sizes-puppies too! I work remotely, and part time right now, so I can easily add pet care to my routine. I am looking forward to spending more time with furry friends! I am careful to follow any special instructions for your pet, as well as ensure any outside spaces are secure if your pup has one for playtime
“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She became instant best friends with our dog. When I got home after a long day, Oakley looked at me with eyes saying "I had the best day ever!". Rachel is very nice, has great communication, and obviously a lot of experience.”
“Emily is the best! She’s very flexible with my schedule changes and her communication is always on point with any details or requests I may have. My pup loves her!! Highly recommend her to anyone ❤️”
“Chelsea was so great to work with! She dropped in on my kitten twice a day and followed all my overly-detailed instructions I gave her 🤣🤣 Will definitely book again!!”
About: I got my first dog when I was 10. She was a puppy when I got her and was the love of my life. She taught me responsibility, patience, love, gentleness, and kindness. In my adulthood I fostered a sweet dog for two years before I had my children. Now I’m a single mom who is looking to help care for your dog during the times my children are not with me. I’m a single mom on a parenting schedule. I would care for your pet on the weekends my children are with their dad. During that time I would be readily available and have a lot of flexibility. I can easily come to your home and care for your pet as requested. I live in a single family home with a walking trail across the street. No fenced yard.

“Finley did a great job taking care of my cat, Billie. It was my first time going out of town since adopting her, so I was pretty nervous about how she would react. Finley took the time to let Billie acclimate to them, and sent me lots of pictures. Billie seemed so happy and calm when I got home. I would definitely book Finley in the future. Thanks again!”
About: I've had pets since I was a little girl and even worked at a dog grooming salon for three years, which I loved. Over the past 3 summers, I’ve been on Rover and love my experience with animals and clients. I am still recovering from surgery, and we can discuss that when booking with me. I want to create a place where owners feel like they can reach out me and trust me when needed Hello, I’m currently a college student home for the summer. Back in April, I had hip replacement surgery. Over the past few weeks, I've been able to get back on my feet and move around a little more. I was looking to help any furry friends around the area that need to be fed or let outside. Unfortunately, I can't handle large, high-energy dogs. Please reach out, and we can discuss. If anyone needs help with small dogs or cats, I'm your girl. During drop-ins, I typically follow the owners' requests, which include feeding the animals, playing with them, spending time together, letting them outside, and refilling their water, etc.
About: Hi there! I am a responsible and diligent college student(20), and am happy to watch your cats and dogs. I love being active with my puppy but also chilling at home with my two cats. Very open to feedback and customizing my approach to every pet! I’m currently working part time, so any time I’m not working I want to do this! Mornings and afternoons, weekdays and weekends are all possible depending on my work schedule. I go on walks/runs already in my daily routine, sometimes with coco(our dog). I have experience with feeding, brushing, tick treatment, cleaning out the litter box, and playing with them. I have experience walking puppies, take them out to potty, etc.
“Caitlyn was great! Very responsive and sent plenty of updates while we were gone, and I can tell my kitties were well taken care of. I have one shy baby that hides when new people come by and Caitlyn made sure to lay eyes on her too. Leo, my outgoing baby was clearly very happy to receive all the love, pets, and playtime based on photos! Highly recommend booking Caitlyn!”

No stress 😌 My schedule has flexibility and open to make accommodations if some of the days do not fit your schedule. I am able to make arrangements. I have 2 cat furr babies who are well taken care of. One is deaf and it has made me even more patient with animals.
“I’m a travel nurse so I work really long hours. Katie came and sat with my girl a little bit each day I was at work and went above and beyond to take care of my girl!! If I’m ever in her area again I will so be using her again to take care of Willow. She truly loved my dog and my dog loved her. At one point I flew home and my sitter called was I landed and unable to care for Willow. Katie stepped up and made a very stressful situation bearable!! She is amazing and I 10/10 recommend her to anyone!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
Allyson was top notch! Our younger dog immediately warmed up to her when she visited before our trip, which is a rarity for our younger dog. We knew right then our dogs would be in great, caring hands for the week we were away. Our older dog has daily medicine he takes orally and Allyson was comfortable giving it to him. Allyson was reliable, a great communicator, and went above and beyond her responsibilities. Allyson has a warm, caring personality and was sensitive to our dogs' needs. We will definitely have her care for our dogs again!

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 Stow 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.
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 Stow 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.
To find sitters in Stow with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
