About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's so amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. My husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. Our family loves dogs and we will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. My amazing husband and daughter are my best pet helpers when I am not around. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in our home. Our home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not much of an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)

About: I have over 4 years of experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and small animals. I currently house sit regularly for a family in South Kent, which has helped me build strong routines and trust with both pets and owners. I currently work in the Washington/Kent area pet sitting monthly for a family in Kent and babysitting in Washington. I am looking for additional work whether that be walking/feeding or overnight stays. I’m very respectful of my clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized, just as it was left. I also prioritize safety by making sure pets are secure and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health.

About: I am currently studying Animal Science at my university. I am hoping to become a vet one day, so getting the opportunity to practice what I've been taught with your pet will be very beneficial to my carreer going forward! I also had a 15 year old black lab that had a couple of health issues, I was able to give her adequate care for her remaining years. I'm currently a college student studying Animal Science, on a summer break so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Whenever you need me, I will be there. I'm also willing to work weekends and nights! I will make sure your pet is well feed, groomed and have frequent bathroom breaks. I will also take them to the dog park or even on car rides! My studies have also taught me what to look for if your animal isn't feeling well or is in distress, along with how to properly treat them if necessary.

“Michelle is epic, she accommodated me on such a short notice (5 hours!) and she is super sweet with our senior dog Mayonnaise. She sent a few videos and a photo of her short time with him, as we just needed her for a drop in. Thank you so much to Michelle, and we already have her booked for more services. She’s awesome and responds fast!”

About: I’ve spent several summers caring for both cats and dogs as well as having them in my house growing up! I absolutely love giving them the attention they deserve, whether that’s playtime, walks, or cuddle time. As a 20 year old college student, I bring lots of energy, patience, and genuine love for animals. I enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for like they’re part of my own family I currently am a college student with mostly early morning classes, so I am up pretty early. I also am a soccer coach for Wilmington hammer heads which is about 2 hours Monday, Wednesday, Thursday nights. Other than that I am extremely flexible and am never busy for long periods of time! Whether I’m in my home or a client’s, safety and comfort always come first. I make sure pets have a clean, secure space, follow their normal routines, and give them plenty of attention so they feel at ease. My goal is to create an environment where pets are happy, loved, and cared for just like they would be with their family.

About: I’ve taken care of small-medium dogs short-term and long-term. Friends and family know my love for dogs and always call me for dog sitting. I want to get one of my own soon! I’m currently working from home and have lots of flexibility. I also love to go on short and long walks myself and would love to help someone out and walk a pet while I go for my walks! After pet sitting in the past, I’ve been told I did a wonderful job and that their pet loved being with me. I offer a fun and caring environment, follow schedule as provided, and go out for many walks. I’ve usually done sitting at the clients home so the pet is most comfortable in its own home.

About: Hi! I’m Kari, a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two Australian Shepherds. 🐾 I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a natural love for animals, so caring for pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m active, dependable, and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup needs a long walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re away, or simply a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also very comfortable with high-energy dogs and enjoy keeping active pups entertained and exercised! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can completely trust with your furry family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and care. I’ll treat your pets the same way I’d want someone to treat mine. ❤️ I work part-time so I can offer plenty of playtime to your furry friends! Overnights - available Friday-Sunday Any other service - any time Sat, Sun & Monday or after 3pm Tuesday-Friday. I will do whatever you prefer to ensure your cat/dog is safe & comfortable. I can crate them if necessary or secure them in a specific location in the house as well.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life, both big and small. I currently have 2 dogs of my own, Twig and Bugs and I foster puppies for a local rescue. I love all dogs! I work as a nurse in the NICU and typically work 36 hours a week night shift. I usually have an entire week off every third week. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to do what I can to work around your needs! I would love to take your dogs for a walk or let them out in your yard. I would even bring them to the park to let them run around as much as possible. I’m not a huge fan of dog parks because they can be unpredictable, but I will do whatever works best for you and your pup!

I adjust my care to fit their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I am usually pretty free during the week, but send me a message and we can find a time that works for both of us! I keep each pet’s care as consistent as possible with their normal routine. I also make sure every dog gets extra attention so they always feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

Robin is simply amazing. Takes her time to learn each of my dogs individual needs. Accepts when I have a visiting dog and understands need to separate and monitor behaviors. She makes life manageable. Also appreciate that she is able to say No when it just won't work. Gives the confidence she is prioritizing what is best for all her clients and herself.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Thomaston 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 .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .

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.

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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
