About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I strive to make your pet’s routine as seamless and stress-free as possible while you're away. I am completely comfortable with anxious pets and well-versed in administering both pill and topical medications. Whether it’s stimulating walks, endless affection, or gentle patience, your fur babies will receive the exact level of love and dedicated care I give my own girls. You can count on detailed updates and plenty of photos daily—or per visit—so you always have complete peace of mind. I currently have open availability for drop-ins and walks from 7:30 AM to 9:00 PM. As a dog and cat owner myself, my pets always come first—and while your sweet baby is in my care, I will treat them with the exact same love and dedication. I provide personalized, gentle care tailored specifically to your pet's routine in the comfort of their own home. Being away from family can be stressful for our little dudes, so my top priority is making my visits a fun, stress-free highlight of their day, giving your pets extra love and giving you complete peace of mind.
About: I provide care for cats only. I grew up with kittens and cats at all times, and I have two adopted cats of my own. I will befriend them at any home I visit. I am a homemaker with lots of flexibility in my daily schedule. Taking time to visit your pet is no issue for me, and actually adds some fun to my day! I will always let the cat be comfortable. If that means petting and cuddles, I will jump at the opportunity. But if comfort means allowing space, that’s ok, too! (But I’m also happy to bribe with treats 😉)
“Kaylee was so wonderful with our senior cat, Holly! Holly already misses her. ☺️ We knew she would be the perfect fit at the meet-and-greet when shy Holly came out from under the bed to eat treats from Kaylee's hand. Kaylee is very kind and patient with animals. Holly was given playtime, brushing, and treats daily along with her dry food and prescription wet food. Kaylee sent photos and videos every single day at the end each pet-sitting check-in. Her communication was consistent and excellent, allowing us to truly relax when we were on vacation. It gave us reassurance knowing that Kaylee was enjoying her time with our cat and that Holly warmed up to her so quickly. When we got home, we couldn't believe how clean everything looked! Kaylee also brought in our mail and followed all of our instructions for Holly. We will definitely hire Kaylee again without hesitation! She truly has a heart for cats and other animals, and for people too!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.
“Kayla was amazing once again! She was very professional, polite, and communicative. She went above and beyond in taking care of our four cats flawlessly - administering medicine for multiple senior cats and following care instructions to a ‘T’. She sent notes with each check in and took pictures as she fed and played with them. 12/10 would recommend her to anyone wanting to make sure their fur babies are in great hands while they’re away!”
“Amber is amazing! I truly cannot thank her enough for how great she was taking care of my cat, Beans. He was pretty stressed when I left for vacation for a week and he wasn’t eating. After a few days, Amber took him to the vet and got him the care he needed. She is excellent with updates and communication. You can tell how much she cares. She really goes above and beyond expectations. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future and recommending her!”
About: Aside from my own fur babies - friends, family, and neighbors have often trusted and called upon me to ensure their pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to get to know each one and provide the individualized care they deserve. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure you have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, happy, and loved from the moment we meet. I can accommodate any almost arrangement. I’m an independent contractor package delivery driver so I have plenty of flexibility when it comes to bookings. I will follow your requests, and make sure to keep your regular routine in mind while you are away so that your pets are as happy. I will maintain a safe comfortable enviornment, and keep you updated along the way.
“Andy was an amazing dog sitter, and we couldn't be happier with the care he provided for our boys. From the moment we left, we knew they were in great hands. He kept us updated, made sure they were well cared for, and treated them like they were his own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We came home to relaxed, happy dogs, which says everything about the quality of care Andy provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely great with animals, we highly recommend Andy. Thank you for taking such great care of our boys!”
“Emily was wonderful!! This was our first time leaving Ricky (a cat) home alone. I was worried he would be lonely or upset when we returned. He was happy everyday to see Emily and she sent me some great photos that captured Ricky's personality . Ricky was happy to see us and waiting by the back door to greet us when we got home. I highly recommend Emily she is a sweetheart!”
About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life! I currently have a 9 year old dog who I adopted at 4 months old and she is my best friend. I’m the go to dog sitter for my family and friends and have watched dogs of varying ages and sizes and have loved them all. Your dog would be treated like one of my own with lots of love and care! I currently work from home on a part time basis and am a homebody in general so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your babies. Your pets comfort and happiness is my priority so I can follow care directions easily. I’m a fan of walks, lots of potty breaks, play time and snuggles- whatever your dog needs from me, I’m ready and willing!
“Mason was top notch care ! He did one drop in and one walk at my home each day I was gone and everything was perfect. My dog was happy, the house was good, he sent lots of pics and was extremely communicative. Would love to have him watch / walk Ozzy again and would highly recommend him to other pet owners!!”
“Alex was outstanding! She is professional, dependable, and an excellent communicator. It was clear from the moment we met that she genuinely loves animals, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She took wonderful care of my dog and cat during each drop-in visit and consistently provided timely updates and photos so I always knew they were doing well. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Alex again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter through Rover.”
About: I have had a lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience caring for many different types. Growing up, I helped rescue animals and learned the importance of patience, compassion, and responsible care. I’ve owned and cared for a wide variety of animals ranging from chickens to horses, which gave me experience with different needs, temperaments, and daily routines. My love for animals also led me to participate in 4-H and FFA, where I continued developing my animal care skills and knowledge. Over the years, I’ve cared for multiple dog breeds including a pitbull, shih tzu, poodle, husky, and German shepherd, and I currently have two miniature goldendoodles that I walk and care for every day. Through these experiences, I’ve become very comfortable working with animals of all sizes and personalities, and I truly enjoy providing them with attentive, loving, and reliable care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and availability. I work evenings at my other job, which allows me to provide pet care services during the morning and afternoon. This flexible schedule makes it easy for me to walk, feed, and check in on animals one to three times per day as needed. I also have Thursdays off and most weekends available, giving me even more time to dedicate to longer walks, playtime, and consistent care. Because I already walk my own dogs daily, incorporating additional pets into my routine is something I am comfortable with, and I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care that fits each animal’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of toys and space for them to play and stay active. I make sure they receive lots of attention, regular potty breaks, fresh water, and follow any feeding or care routines provided. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment by playing with them, giving them plenty of attention, and maintaining their normal routine. I also make sure they are cleaned up well, have fresh water at all times, and that their space is kept tidy so they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Swansea
Tawnie was an excellent choice to take care of Spock for a week while we were on vacation. She was very responsive and we appreciated the photos she sent. Spock loved her from day one, so we knew we could trust her. Spock loved her attention and we will definitely reach out to Tawnie again to care for our kitty. We highly recommend her as a sitter!
We were very pleased to meet Rachel - she was warm and smart and confident; had a good way with the dogs! I somewhat hate to leave her the great review she deserves for fear she will be booked up next time we need her! LOL - Seriously, she was beyond my best expectations!
Karlee was a fantastic sitter for our two elderly cats. We really appreciated how much attention she gave them, how communicative she was, and how she made sure to let us know if there was something specific she needed to take care of the cats (like finding cleaning supplies for accidents.) We never felt like we had a thing to worry about for our girls while we were gone. I'd recommend Karlee to anybody!

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 Swansea 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 Swansea. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
