About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting for over 4 years, starting when I was 15. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while building trust with their families. I’m in college part time and working part time but I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m pretty easy and I like to do weekends and overnight stays if necessary (I’m huge on cuddles). I can do super early or super late just let me know and I can make it happen for you! I also have reliable transportation! I provide loving care at your home, including feeding, giving medicine if needed, playtime, walks, cuddles, and plenty of attention to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable.
“Ariana is just the most kind, loving and thoughtful pet lover/walker/sitter! Incredibly reliable and flexible and my pets have been crazy about her from the second they met her.”

“I continue to rebook with Elizabeth, because she is dependable and has a quick response time. There has been several times where I had to reach out to her last minute and she’s always been able to help. Definitely recommend using her!”
About: I have grown up taking care of my dog Bruce who is now 12 years old. Neighbors and friends have reached out to me to take care of and watch their dogs because they know I am someone they can trust. I am currently a life guard and an online college student with a flexible school schedule. I use dog sitting as my side hustle to make a little extra money along with my current job. I have taken care of dogs whose owners use kennels and a fenced in backyard for playtime, and also the opposite. This would be no kennel but keeping the dog inside when I leave, and taking the dog outside for playtime in a fenced in backyard. This depends on your preferences. I will feed, play with, and give potty breaks/outdoor playtime for your dog. I can also walk your dog for an extra charge.
About: I’ve had pets since i was little. My family loves animals so i had a variety of dogs and cats ever since i was young.We’ve had Rottweilers, bulldogs and mastiffs. However, as of today we have 8 cats in our house and i help taking care of them all. I have a very flexible schedule. I teach piano after school hours which usually falls after 3pm. So morning and late evenings are my most available times. Weekends are available as well. However, on Saturdays i am available after 3pm. All of my cats have their own very specific personalities. We have made a schedule for them where we feed them 3 times a day and make sure all their bathrooms are clean. I know each pet is different and each owner sets different schedules. So, as long as i know what you want me to do i will do it and take care of your pet as if it were my own.
About: I have two large dogs of my own for 11 & 8 years now. I have used Rover for sitters for my own so i know the expectations you will have! I will care for all pets and do it with so much love! I will do as many drop-ins and walks as needed. Would love to chat please reach out! I am working from home and my job is super flexible, i can step away with notice at any time. No scheduled online hours for work days. I will follow any instructions given, update with pictures and texts. Your home and pets will be in great hands with me! I am a paranoid mom so locks will always be double checked and dogs will always get extra love!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them! From a young age, I helped care for my own dogs and quickly became the go-to sitter for family and friends. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler touch. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. That’s why I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family — with patience, consistency, and lots of love (plus belly rubs and playtime!). Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or keeping up with special routines, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels right at home. I’m currently in grad school completing my rotations during the week, but my weekends are wide open for pet care. Since I already have four dogs of my own, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine — from walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles. Because of this, I’m used to balancing schedules, staying organized, and making sure every pup gets the attention they deserve. I’m mostly available all day on weekends and can give your pet plenty of love, exercise, and care during that time. If I stay in your home, here’s how I’ll care for your pets— my priority is to keep your pets safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining their normal routines. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, get their regular walks or playtime, and of course plenty of cuddles and attention. I’m experienced with everything from energetic pups to seniors who need a slower pace, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines you have in place. I also respect your home as if it were my own — keeping things clean, tidy, and stress-free so you can return with peace of mind.
About: I have one small dog, Gizmo, who is 14 years old. He weighs 6 pounds, only has a few teeth left, and is spoiled rotten. I am a realtor and work out of my home, and I figured I could spend some of my time taking care of other's dogs too. I am a real estate agent and work from home, so I have a fairly open schedule to take care of your fur babies as needed. In my home I have a well fenced yard and a small doggy door which allows them to come and go as needed. I can also stay the night at your house instead and take care of your pets as needed, with walks, feeding, medicine, and lots of cuddles.
About: Hi there! I'm dedicated to providing your beloved pets with the highest standard of care right in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. As an experienced and passionate pet sitter, I offer personalized attention, ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaled family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups and make them feel at home! I'm available for boarding on weekends. I have a fenced yard and playground for your pup, and a special pet room with Dog TV for relaxation. Two friendly dogs are available to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I’ve been an animal caretaker for the past 4 years with multiple families. I’ve taken care of big dogs and little dogs of all ages (one blood hound that was diabetic that I had to administer medicine to), cats, ferrets, horses, goats, chickens, and donkeys. I also volunteered with a Canine Search and Rescue team for 4 years. I’ve been K-9 first aid certified as well. I currently am a live in Nanny but I’m only needed in the morning times, I also have a part time job but it’s flexible and changes weekly. I generally am available midday and evenings. I am comfortable with harnessing any size dog. I can also easily crate a dog. I am willing to walk, scoop poop, scoop litter boxes, feed, water, play, administer medications, really anything needed!
About: I’ve always had bigger dogs and my entire life and growing up had German Shepherds in my family. I currently have a cat and a dachshund who make my life amazing! I love being active and I don’t mind giving baths or giving pets the occasional brush. I would love to help out the dog parent who might not have the time to take their pets to any activities they would love to have them do. I have experience pet sitting for my friends and families and would love to help anyone who needs it. I’m currently a college student so my schedule does vary some days but I am usually pretty available Friday-Sunday morning or afternoon! Any other days please plan accordingly and in need of an emergency please reach out and I can try to accommodate as best as I can ! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! Like previously stated I will try to accommodate you and your pet as best as you can to ensure you are both happy with my services.
About: I grew up caring for dogs, cats, horses, and other farm animals alike. I have experience with new borns as well as senior animals. I understand all pets have different personalities and quirks and truly enjoy learning them. I intend on making pet care my full time summer job and spending anywhere from 25-40 hours working through the app. My availability will be consistent on a weekly basis. Ideally, I’ll speak with the client and take time to learn all their fur baby’s needs. Then present myself as friendly and loving as possible to the pet during each interaction. This is how I would want someone to treat my own dogs!
About: I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. I have grooming supplies on hand if you'd like your dog to be clean and smelling fresh the day they're due to go home. I never stop learning about dogs so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, tools, and equipment to ensure the best possible stay. I am a stay at home mom and am home everyday. I employ what I describe as the perfect balance of a dog being in a home setting it's used to while also having the security on the individual dog level of a kennel boarding facility. During the day the dogs get as much play time as they prefer and the weather will allow. I wake up early and the first thing I do is take all the dogs out to the backyard. The entire yard is available for any dog once I get familiar with them and their behaviors. My goal is to eliminate as much chance as possible of escaping, fighting, over heating, fence aggression, getting into things commonly found in backyards such as trash cans, etc. while also making sure they are fulfilled mentally and physically each day. For your pets sleeping or daytime napping arrangements I try to mimic their home routine as much as possible. I have one large and a small kennel in my home reserved for dogs that are used to being caged at night or they can stay in bed with me and get all the cuddles. No other dog can try to steal their food, your pet won't eat another pets food which is great for dogs with sensitive stomachs, and it virtually eliminates the possibility for any resource guarding behaviors. I go above and beyond to make sure every dog enjoys their stay in the safest possible manner. They have someone who understands their nature and fulfills their needs. I am a stay at home mom to 4 kids and a military spouse of 23 years. My kids are all in school and absolutely love all animals. I am always available to walk, pet sit or boarding. I have a very large fenced in yard with a dog door. I love walking dogs and getting some energy out. I have a crate that can be used as needed.
About: Hi, I’m Alexis! I’ve been working with animals for years and spent time at WagBnb, where I cared for all kinds of pups with different personalities and needs. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just making your pet feel safe and at home, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets—I’ve been there! You can count on me to show up, communicate clearly, and keep your fur baby happy while you’re away. Whether it’s giving meds, cleaning up messes, or keeping anxious pets calm, I’ve seen it all and handle it with care. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own — with patience, attention, and plenty of love. Pet care fits into my week pretty naturally — I’ve got two dogs and two cats of my own, so I’m already in a rhythm with daily walks, feedings, and lots of attention. I work remotely and make my own schedule, so it’s easy for me to fit in check-ins, walks, or overnight care when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I try to keep things as calm, clean, and routine as possible. I follow whatever schedule they’re used to — meals, walks, playtime, meds, etc. In their home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m big on communication too, so you’ll always get updates and know how things are going.

Sherlyn was great from booking to the last interaction. Prompt, professional, punctual and by far the best rover we've ever used. She arrived on time, followed directions to a T, and gave detailed updates and information on our pup during her time with him. I will be booking again as long as she is available! GREAT experience.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services.
