About: I love animals and look forward to meeting yours! I currently have two dogs who have been with me for 14 and 12 years. I have cared for family and friends’ pets and enjoy any time spent with pets. I am retired and have plenty of free time to care for your pets. Since my dogs are set in their ways, I can only offer dog walks and in home visits at this time. Since my dogs are older and set in their ways, I can offer dog walks and in home visits at this time. Thanks for understanding.
“Jamie was awesome! She stopped by to let my beagle boys out during a long work day. She updated me and sent the most adorable pictures of them while she was there. She even left a little treat for them and a thank you card for us!”
“Perri is so kind and professional! I was skeptical about using this service (first time user) and she made me a very comfotable by meeting up with me before-hand! She was very helpful and did a great job with my puppy!”
About: I have around four years of consistent experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have an older dog of my own, so I understand senior care firsthand, including monitoring comfort, energy, and health needs. I also regularly pet-sit for families with elderly dogs, which has strengthened my ability to provide calm, attentive care. In addition, I have cared for puppies and understand the patience, structure, and supervision they require. Having experience with both puppies and senior dogs allows me to adapt easily to each dog’s unique needs and routine. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. My availability can vary by semester, but I always communicate clearly and plan ahead to ensure pets receive consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety and trust in every home I enter. I carefully follow feeding instructions, walking routines, and medication schedules when needed. I monitor behavior closely, keep environments clean and secure, and always respect a pet’s comfort level. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including seniors, and understand the importance of calm, reliable care.
“So far my experience has been that Pilgrim, my spoiled 16 yr old with kidney problems, is in safe and trystworthy hands with Emilee. She follows instructions confidently, writes wonderful feedback about her visit, and takes great pictures for Pilgrim's Rover card. I feel very very lucky that Emilee lives close by and is my catsitter of choice! She is a thoughtful, mature, cheery young lady. Thanks!!!”
“Cortney was so responsive and attentive to our babies. We loved the messages after each visit as well as the adorable pictures. She was incredible, we will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I am different from other sitter because I will take my time and actually play with your dog. Also get to know the dog and see what they like and don’t like. I will go beyond to take care of your dog. I am free the rest of the summer. The only thing I do have is softball I play one game in the morning till July 13 but that’s it. I have a fenced in backyard with to friendly english bulldogs. They love dogs and are very nice. Also I will go pretty much anywhere to a clients home and make sure the dog is okay.
“Did an amazing job. My original sitter(not from rover) fell through last minute. Molly was amazing with communication and even got my shy kitties to say hello. She was prompt with her drop in visits and I loved the photos they would send everyday. Will definitely ask for her service again in the future!”

About: I ABSOLUTELY love dogs. I actually love all animals, I do not discriminate. I have been around pets my whole life. I am very patient and understanding with them. I get along with them more than people. I can provide a fun safe environment while I care for your fur baby. My yard is pretty spacious and we are slowly trying to turn it into a small farm . I do prefer to play and keep them in the house for security purposes, that way they’re never unsupervised. While you are away, your fur baby will not be missing any cuddles or treats. Staying at my house is not like a traditional boarding place, it gives your pup an opportunity to be a part of my family while you are away. For any who think their pet is difficult with others, fear not for I will not give up on the opportunity to make a new friend. DON'T HESITATE TO ASK ABOUT OTHER PETS, I LOVE ALL ANIMALS AND AM WILLING TO CARE FOR ANY :) If you are using Rover for the first time, you can use my promo code to get $20 off your first booking.

About: I have owned pets my entire life. They are like kids to me. They are treated with respect and care equivalently so. I like pets more than humans. 😆 I own my own business and I work from home. I set my own schedule. I am very flexible. This allows me to give your pet lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have a Pet door into the yard so they can come and go freely, when they have the “need”.
“Meridith was wonderful! My dog June can be a little shy at first but Meridith was so gentle and patient with June that she warmed up quickly! Meridith was very reliable and effective at communicating. I would definitely book her again to walk June.”
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting for over 10 years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. Over the years I have cared for small and large dogs, cats, and even fish, and I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s personality, medication needs, and routines. I’ve also been a dog owner myself for the past 15 years. My family currently has two Queensland Heelers who are 10 and 15 years old, so I have plenty of experience with both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs. Because of that, I understand how important exercise, consistency, and patience are for keeping dogs happy and healthy. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve cared for many other animals including chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and lizards. I’m currently fostering a 3-year-old bunny, which has been a wonderful experience. Animals are a big part of my life, and in my free time I volunteer with animal rescues as well. I treat every pet I care for like they’re my own and always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or just some company, I’d love to help! I work part-time as a teacher, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks and check-ins before work, after work, and I also have multiple days off each week where I can dedicate extra time to pet care. Because of this, I’m able to provide consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I live a very active lifestyle and make it a habit to walk or hike at least five times a week, so regular walks and outdoor time are already part of my routine. This makes it easy for me to include dogs who enjoy exercise, fresh air, and exploring. For boarding, I’m available on both weekdays and weekends and can make sure pets receive plenty of attention, activity, and care while they stay with me. I try to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and part of the routine whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in their own home. In my home, I have a spare room specifically set up for animals so they have a quiet and comfortable space if they need it. Pets are welcome on the furniture and I aim to create a relaxed, home-like environment where they can settle in easily. I have a large yard for supervised outdoor time, and while it is not fenced, I always make sure pets are closely supervised outside. My neighborhood also has a fenced dog park, and I live next to several walking and hiking trails, which is great for dogs that enjoy getting out for exercise and exploring. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and always try to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with pets, cleaning litter boxes, and administering medication if needed. I can also crate dogs if that is part of their normal routine. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their animals are in good hands.
About: I have grown up working on farms and raised with the mentality of pets are always family! Your loved ones are always safe with me! I work from home and have a fun big dog park at my apartment complex. Need a sitter with flexibility I am your go to! I have my own baby. He is a 3 year old golden as cute as could be. We love to be outside majority of the day!
About: People always ask me to dog sit their fur babies because they know how much I love animals! I’ve had pets since I was a little girl. I currently have an 8 month old Shih Tzu and a Maine Coon cat. Both are great with other animals. I am available any time, day or night. I am a real estate agent, so I set my own hours, which is very convenient. I mostly work from home, unless I’m out showing houses or attending closings. I am married and have two little girls that are ages 7 and 11 years old. My daughters are also animal lovers, and love helping me take care of other people’s pets. We have a large front yard and a long driveway, so there is plenty of room to run, and we are not too close to the main road. Their are lots of trees and neighbors are pretty spread out.
About: I have always had pets: cats, dogs, geese, chickens, rabbits, etc. I became involved with rescuing dogs over 20+ years ago and those who were not adoptable, I kept myself and then started helping with transports. I currently have 8 dogs from 8 lbs up to 80 lbs. I don't have any cats at this time because of the dog population. I am retired and would like to do something I enjoy. I am not taking in any new animals because I do not want them to outlive me and wind up homeless. Because I have so many dogs who have full access to our house, front and back yards, I would rather come to the client's house to care for their pets. I'm sure the pets would be more comfortable in their own environment. I have never done CPR on a dog but I have administered first aide and followed the Vet's orders for any illnesses or injuries.
About: I have lots of experience taking care of pets and making them feel loved and cared for is very important to me. I know how much pets can mean to an owner so I always do whatever is necessary to reflect that in my pet sitting. I am a collegiate athlete without a true job weighing me down so I have plenty time to care for pets! It is always my priority to make time for pets. I am currently in a dorm room that I can’t keep dogs in so I don’t think I can board any pets. But I am always able to watch pets and take them on walks etc.

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 Trenton 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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. 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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
