“Becky was wonderful! Our kitties were very happy to see her each day and she communicated reports to us quickly. She was also so kind to bring our mail in while we were away. Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Michaels the best! He’s helped us multiple times with overnight stays & quick drop ins. Our very selective dog & our shy cat both love him. He went above & beyond when we were away during a big snow storm & couldn’t get home to our pets. He cleared a pathway for our dog to go outside, cleared snow away from vents attached to our home & still managed to keep our pets active & exercised in the frigid temps. Everyone needs a Michael for their pets!”
“Erin was great to work with. She took great care of our dogs. It was a relief to know she was caring for them while we traveled. I would book her again in the future.”
About: I am a proud dog mom myself. And I treat every dog with the exact same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I currently work from 7am - 3pm on weekdays. I am fully available on weekends and overnights. After 3pm on weekdays I am fully available for drop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard, and a Golden Retriever who is very friendly and well trained. I make sure there is always a water in my dogs bowl and I am on schedule with her feeding times.
“Sandy took such good care of our puppy. Made sure to update and called with any concerns. She even did more than what we asked!!! We will definitely use her again!”
About: I have taken care of my friends dogs for multiple nights in a row while her and her family were on vacation. Done this multiple times. I am part time. I am home from school in the summer so I can only provide some of these services right now. But I usually don’t have to work until 4pm. I have 6 cats and they are all pretty chill. Just the usual feeding and cleaning the litter box. I also love to cuddle so they are definitely loved.
“Kayla was great with watching our pups while we were gone for the weekend. They love her and she did a great job with communicating and sending pics while she was at our house. I would definitely recommend Kayla!”

About: I absolutely love spending time with furry friends! I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and even some shy rescues. I enjoy taking dogs for long walks, playing fetch at the park, and giving all the belly rubs they deserve. I’m responsible, punctual, and make sure each pet gets personalized attention and affection while you’re away. I’m currently a college student with a flexible class schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with pets throughout the week. I usually have mornings and evenings free, perfect for walks, playtime, and cuddles. Taking care of animals is a great way for me to relax and recharge between classes—it honestly makes my day better! I make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live just a short walk away from a beautiful dog park where pets can get plenty of safe, supervised outdoor time. I always keep dogs on a leash during walks and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. At home, I have two super friendly resident pets who love meeting new friends and are great at helping other pets feel relaxed and welcome. I keep my space clean, calm, and pet-friendly, with lots of cozy spots for rest and play. Your furry friend will be treated just like family here! 🐶💛

About: Over the course of my life, I’ve owned seven different types of pets, from horses to cats and dogs and others in between! This pet care experience that started in early childhood has led me to appreciate, understand, and know how to handle different furry family members’ personalities. In addition, I have pet at for various families in my community, all of whom had various pets with different needs and temperaments. It would be my honor to care for your pet and give them the treatment they deserve as part of your family. I am currently a college student with a fairly flexible schedule, with availability throughout different parts of the day. I am able to provide pet care throughout most days of the week in general! I am willing to abide by and uphold any of your standard practices for your pet! The last thing I’d like to do is disrupt your pet schedule or routine, so I will do everything in my ability to follow your standards to the letter.
About: I am a long-time dog owner who understands the value in having piece of mind knowing that our furry family members are well-cared for during long days away from home, or a trip. I've provided care for dogs in various ways over the last several decades, whether it be for my own, a member of my family, or my neighbor's pet. I also was an employee for a boarding facility a number of years ago. I am reliable and caring. I also have a lot of energy and would love to share that with your animals when they need it. I currently work Tuesday through Friday, so will be your reliable weekend pet care option! I may also be available during weeknight evenings upon request. I am happy to spend time with your dog in whatever way best supports them in their home. Whether it's snuggling up, going for a long walk, or playing fetch. I also routinely jog, so if your dog is of the more energetic type, that is something I can work toward with him/her.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Trafford
Olivia was so easy to communicate with and kept us in the loop with things outside of caring for our dogs. One of our dogs also takes awhile to warm up to new people, but really had no trouble during our initial meet and greet. It was great to go away and know that she was taking amazing care of our pets!

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

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Trafford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
