About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets in my own home including dogs, cats, birds, and a few reptiles. I love taking my dog to the woods for long walks (anywhere from 5-15 miles) so you can count on me not to slack on your pets needs. Every time I take care of someone else’s dog, I tire them out with my long walks and they always love it. I just recently graduated from high school and am looking for a summer/gap year job. My days are usually filled with going to the gym and walking my dog so pet sitting is easily integrated into my schedule. I am available to take care of pets in my own home as long as they can get along with my dog, although I would prefer house sitting since I live with my parents and two siblings. I have a fenced in backyard and a front yard that my dog likes to hangout in on a lead. I can follow any feeding/walking schedule and rules surrounding your pet. Additionally, I am a pretty organized person and can keep your space clean and well maintained while house sitting. I hope to hear from you soon and I’m super excited to provide my services!!
“Maya was great with our 2 dogs. She was reliable and on time for every visit. We were away for a long weekend and were very busy. Her check ins and pictures of the dogs she sent showed me they were good and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely ask her again.”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover from Wilmington, Delaware, and after retiring from 34 years in education, I decided to follow my heart and spend more time with animals. I've had all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, even horses—so I know just how much they mean to us. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, kind, and caring looking after your pets (and your home) when you can’t be there. Whether it's a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or just some company while you're away, I'm here to make sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved. I am retired after 34 years in education and have a flexible schedule that can meet your pets daily needs- morning, noon or night. Additionally, I have lived in the area my entire life so I am very familiar with the neighborhoods. I will visit your pets as requested. They will be walked responsibly and I will ensure they have fresh water and treats if allowed. If requested I will bring in the mail and any delivered packages.
“We had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth! Came two days in a row with only a one-day notice. She came right on time and took great care of Bogey both days. Communication was great, she sent cute pictures/updates, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Lady! We could tell by the pictures provided that she had a great time playing in the backyard and she looks forward to hanging out with you again soon!”
“Cyndal was wonderful! She sent pictures and looked after our sweet girl. She even stayed a little longer to make sure she drank enough water after their walk. Will definitely be using her again when we go out of town.”
“Stephanie did a truly excellent job with my dog Odie. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch pet sitter. She is awesome and thoughtful and smart and Odie had a fun weekend staycation.”
About: Back home, I rescued and cared for several dogs while helping them recover and find loving, responsible families. I have always felt a deep connection to animals and enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I learn quickly and follow instructions carefully to ensure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing their happiness and well-being. I work part-time and online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. I am available throughout the week and can provide regular attention, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I do my best to maintain their usual schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I personally prefer house sitting because pets are often happiest and most relaxed in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special instructions provided by their family. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while providing attentive, loving, and reliable care. If needed, I may be able to host pets in my apartment on a case-by-case basis, but my primary focus is providing care in the pet’s own home where they feel safest and most comfortable.
“Mary took wonderful care of my Boston Terrier, Archie, for an extended period, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the level of care she provided. She arrived on time each day and shared plenty of updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Mary and would absolutely use her again.”
“Jordan did an amazing job watching Penny! We needed a sitter fairly last minute. We just moved and are too far to use our old boarding accommodations. Since we’d never used Rover before, Jordan gave us all the info we needed about how it all worked. Penny loved meeting Jordan and was excited to see her each visit. We’d definitely use Jordan again!”
“Joseph was great, he cared for my babies for 8 days. He walked them and played with them each time he was at the house. My old boy loves him and you can see the love between Jospeh and my Rocky. I would highly recommend Joseph to watch your pets. Robyn Candy”
“Klyde and Kimber loved having Justice visit them. Klyde looks so happy in the pictures. Wasn’t sure how he’d be but he warmed up fast! Loved the pictures and the description of how she spent the time. Looking to lots more visits.”
“Amanda did an excellent job watching our kitties. She is highly dependable, flexible and does a thorough job. I would definitely love to have her watch our cats in the future.”
About: I've lived with and cared for dogs for my entire life; I love all animals, big, small, young, old and anywhere in between, the more animals the better! I have experience with dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, and fish and I get along with all of them. I am available for early mornings and late nights as well as weekends. I am also familiar with and unphased by the less glamorous sides of pet care, I don't mind cleaning up after puppy accidents, I have some experience grooming our shaggier four legged friends, and I know how to administer most puppy medications. I work from home so my availability is wide open for whatever you and your animals need. I am an extremely active person so there is no limit to much I will love and play with your pup, but I will also be patient and sensitive to nervous dog and cats. There is no puppy personality that I don't love. I can't wait to meet your dog! I work remote Monday - Wednesday. I also have weekends and evenings available for more involved activities. When im not pet sitting i like to take my own dog for hiking/ camping adventures! A typical day starts with breakfast and a nice romp around the yard, or brisque walk around the neighborhood so your dog can go potty and get out some morning energy. I have a flexible schedule at work so i can take frequent breaks to play and attend to your critters needs. In the evenings, im free again and i like to spend time being active, whether its a long walk, a game of fetch, or even an adventure to the park
“Thankful for Roberta’s visit! She provided a great summary of her visit and good pics! She was flexible and willing to help us out despite a last minute request. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Olivia is professional yet very affectionate and loving towards my pets. Communicated very well and with each visit. My pets were well taken care of and I feel extremely comfortable having Olivia in my home and secure in knowing they are cared for by such a responsible sitter.”
“Kara was wonderful! We hired her to drop in and feed our two cats dinner and give our one cat medication. Not only did she do that, but she stayed to play with them, clean their litter box, and sent us plenty of pictures during and after the visit. She was very communicative before, during and after her visit. I would recommend Kara to anyone looking for someone to drop in on their cats. Thank you so much Kara!”

Heather is amazing! She is so caring and just loves our 4 legged kiddos. We also have a parrot who gets lots of love and attention as well. I love that my husband and I can vacation knowing our home and pets are being well taken care of. Love the pictures she sends as well. ❤️
Honey is a very sensitive Jack Russell skittish around new people. OMGosh! Honey immediately Loved Madi:-) The pictures that Madi sent showed Honey playing and enjoying her time with Madi. We were able to relax and enjoy are time away. We look forward to using Madi's pet services soon.
Amanda is the perfect sitter. We felt so happy that our dogs were with her while we were gone. Our dogs were so happy the whole time and Amanda sent us plenty of photos. She even stopped by for an extra visit because we had a flight delay. Our one dog is a big, excitable Rhodesian Ridgeback but she had no problem handling him. We will never use anybody else in this area to watch our dogs.

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

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.
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.
