“Lora did a great job!!! She was on-time and very consistent. Our dog Willie became comfortable with Lora and that made us so comfortable and happy. We will absolutely ask Lora again to assist us while we are away. Thank you Lora so much for working with us and giving Willie what he needed most, love and attention. 😊”

About: I've had cats since I was 5. I have bottled fed new borns and taken care of all ages. My first "job" was dog walking. I also volunteer at a shelter. I currently work full time Monday-Friday, but telework majority of the time. So I will be available during the week and weekends for check ins and house sitting. There is a lot of playtime in my house. I also have a pet tent so even small animals such as a cat can enjoy outside safely.
About: You’ll get total kindness and dependability, along with happy pets when you select me. I will do everything I can to make sure your pets feel happy, safe and are well cared for. I never rush and always give pets all the time they need while I am there. Plus, I’m happy to water plants and anything else you need for free. - I’m new to Rover but have been pet sitting via neighborhood apps and ads for over 20 years. Additionally, I do as many drop-in visits as your pets need for that same basic day rate. So, if you need me to stop by three or more times, I’m happy to do that for no extra charge. It helps keep your pets in their home where they are most comfortable without interrupting their routine. While there I can open or close blinds, turn lights and TV off or on, whatever your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable while you are away. Plus, you’ll get regular updates so you know your pets are dong well while you are away. Along with caring for my pug and my cats - caring for others pets takes center stage during the day. I also enjoy getting to know pets and their owners in order to give excellent care. I understand keeping your pet safe is an incredible extension of trust. I am very careful when opening doors, am very aware of our surroundings when taking walks, and very careful doors are securely locked. Any special requests owners have, I am happy to abide. I’m safe, dependable and trustworthy- always.
“I highly recommend Janneth. She took very good care of my two cats with twice daily visits while I was away on a week long business trip. She came for an initial meet & greet and took the time to learn what needed to be done, including how to operate my two Litter Robots. She is very reliable and very good with animals. My cats loved her! Also, I really appreciated how well she took care of my house and cleaning up any messes the cats made.”
About: I have been involved with dogs since I was 12 years old when I started raising Guide Dogs for the blind. After that I worked at a kennel/training facility for 6 years, then became a dog groomer for 10 years as well as went back to more kennel work. I also breed and show border collies and train them for a variety of different events. To say my live revolves around my dogs is an understatement. I have been working with dogs for over 30 years in a variety of aspects. I work from home 8-4:30 with a lunch break. I am able to check on your pups before and after work and even on my lunch break depending on the proximity of our homes. In my home my dogs are indoors with me during the day. They go outside for 20 minutes every hour (supervised only). During they day they have their own dog room next to the living room where I work. Toys beds and crates fill their area. I treat your dog just like one of my own when they are with me. Our dogs sleep in our room with us as well. In your home its your rules and what you need out of a sitter. I would ideally like to take your dog outside to play or for a walk (if that is what they would like). Really it's about the dog and trying to keep a normal routine.

Maddison was so friendly and took great care of my pups while I was away! She was attentive and made sure they always had food and water and played with them as well. She even brought in packages I had ordered out of the rain without me even asking! 110% would recommend booking with her and I will certainly book with her again in the future! Thank you Maddison!

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

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.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
