About: I’m comfortable around all dogs big and small. I’ve owned and taken care of them my whole life. I’m also currently volunteering at the spca. I am currently working from home and have a flexible schedule so I’m able to take care of your pets during the day and after the average work day. I look forward to feeding, playing, and accommodating your pets needs. I’m flexible and I look forward to being a dependable source for your family.
About: I’ve owned dogs for the past 10 years. I helped raise my family’s dog and then got a puppy of my own at the end of 2023! I’m a very active person and absolutely love walking and running. Whether you've got an energetic dog that needs a lot of exercise or a relaxed dog (or cat!) that enjoys a chill stroll, I'm ready for it! My schedule during the day is very open right now, looking to fill it with lots of walks and games of fetch! My weekends and evenings tend to be a bit busier, but I can accommodate special requests if you let me know in advance! I’m happy to provide what ever care your dog needs in your home. Whether that is walks or simple play and pet time, I’m happy to be there.
“Elena did an amazing job with our boys! We have a very large excited Labrador we were nervous about leaving with someone new, but she handled him amazingly! I was very happy with all the updates and pictures she left us while we were gone. Would highly recommend:)”
“Caroline went above and beyond for us when our vacation turned tragic with the sudden illness and passing of my grandmother-in-law that required multiple changes of plans to accommodate the changing situation. She was extremely flexible when our vet informed us that she recommends daily visits rather than every two days after a behavioural checkup right before our trip. Then, there was Grandma’s situation, where Caroline quickly accommodated adding one more day, and then, as the situation progressed, went to great lengths to ensure we were covered no matter what for an additional 3 days. Not only that, but she gave Lucy plenty of love and ensured she was well taken-care-of. To top it all off, she also took the cutest photos and brought in our packages. House was super clean when we got back. We’ll definitely be using her again”
“Sara has consistently impressed us with the kindness and reliability of her pet care. She is so good with Alfredo and communicates frequently to let us know how he’s doing. We feel very lucky to have her watch our dog when we leave and know he’s in good hands. She is also quick to let us know her availability.”

Available to check in on dogs, walk dogs, dog sit as well if the timing is right! Just reach out and see if it will be a great fit!!

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life I've had to attend dog behavioral training classes with multiple dogs over the years of owning them with family. As an adult I've never had the privilege of owning my own dog only cats. But I've always been the one to help family members when they go away walks & pet siting. I work in the elder care system but trying to find a balance of Harmony. With my active lifestyle and fond affection for The Great outdoors I miss the company of dogs I don't have the means or time to own my own I would like an opportunity to be able to explore new areas of my local neighborhood and getting exercise. I do care for a cat though, she is not my own. But she is welcomed in my apartment she owns this house. And I only just pay the rent.
“Shanisa has both boarded my dogs and did a drop in when I was late for a dinner. She is reliable and makes sure to center the comfort of my pups. She understands that my dogs are my world and treats them well.”
About: Hi, we’re Bree (22) and Nick (23)! We have loved and cared for animals our entire lives. Growing up, our homes were always filled with pets, ranging from dogs and cats to hedgehogs and lizards! Because of this, we are incredibly comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and unique care needs. We absolutely love all animals and will do everything to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home when you’re away. When your pet is with us, they will get lots of attention, plenty of playtime, and a schedule that follows your requests. We promise to send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry. We can't wait to meet your furry family members! Bree: I will be the primary person taking care of your pets! As a graduate student and a part-time substitute teacher, my schedule is predictable. I have class Wednesday and sometimes work weekdays depending on my course load. Fridays-Sundays I always have full availability! Nick: Nick has a full time job, so he will be available to help out when not working! Safety is my absolute top priority. I always ensure that doors, gates, and windows are closed before letting any animal roam. When we go for walks, pets are securely leashed at all times, and I am always aware of my surroundings. I ensure all hazardous items and human foods are stored far out of reach. For peace of mind, I provide clear communication and send regular photo and text updates throughout the day!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I love dog walking and treat my pets like they’re part of my family. I work from home and have plenty of time to give each pet I watch the attention it deserves! I’m currently working from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to care and play with your pets! I’m available for boarding during the week/weekends, as well as drop-in-visits and dog walking. I have one small dog and two cats and therefore have everything I need at home to care for your pet! I have a crate, pet carriers, leashes, toys, and plenty of yard space.
“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.”
“Tracy was great! She looked in on our older cat and younger dog this past week. Our older cat has some health issues and Tracy reported on his eating/other habits to help keep us apprised of his situation. She also took our dog for a few walks, fed her and gave her some company. Tracy responded to texts quickly, is friendly and our pets seemed to be just fine with her! We’re so thrilled!”
“Michael is amazing! He goes above and beyond and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with him dropping in a few times a day. I have never left my dog with someone I didn’t know. He sent pictures during all of his visits and even bought my big guy a new toy which has become his favorite! Michael also took my recycling bins out just to be kind. Truly above and beyond. Thank you for giving my family peace of mind knowing our dog was safe and cared for so we could enjoy vacation!”

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Trainer is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $18 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Trainer 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. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
