About: I have experience of 12 years of caring for big, high energy dogs. I am good with any kind of animal and love them all! I am free to check in on pets Sunday or Monday typically, just ask me if you need another day and I may be able to work with you! Whatever the rules are for that home, I will make sure to uphold those. I personally have a reactive dog (to other dogs) in training so I won’t be able to board as of the moment.
About: I’ve been around all types of animals my whole life! I currently have a lab, Tate, and three cats, Sissy, Bovie and Gus. Experienced pet sitter! I have great flexibility and available most days and weekends! Let’s chat about what schedule works best for you and your pets and I can make it happen. Primarily willing to care for pets in the clients home. If you’re wanting socialization for your dog(s), my pup is super friendly and social! Otherwise, willing to fulfill whatever special care you’d expect for your babies!
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting on the farm where I grew up with pets and livestock. I have experience with all kinds of animals, from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s feeding, playing, walking, or just spending time with them, you can count on me to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. Pet care is my full-time job, so it’s at the center of my daily routine. Each day, I focus on providing personalized care for each pet, whether it's feeding, walking, or simply spending quality time with them. I’m flexible and adjust my schedule to meet the needs of every pet, ensuring they get the attention and exercise they require. Being fully dedicated to pet care allows me to give your pets the time and love they deserve, every single day. I care for pets in their own homes, so they stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I handle everything from feeding and walking to playing and giving medication, following any instructions the pet owner provides. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while ensuring they’re happy and well cared for. I treat each home with respect and make sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away.
About: I grew up around dogs and always have had a special bond with them. I currently have a seven-year-old Aussie that I raised and trained myself. I currently have a full-time job so I’m more free on Friday, Saturday and Sundays. But I still have availability during the week just limited. My dog has a big fenced in area with an indoor and outdoor part, but she sleeps inside with me. I’m very well educated with moving dogs to pens or whatever needed.
“Dana was amazing to check in on our elderly cat while we were gone. She was so kind and considerate to all of our cat’s needs and was available to talk to about our cat everyday! We are so grateful for her! 💕”

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.

- 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.

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.

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
