About: I've had multiple pets all my life and strive to make their day as better as their last. I have a true strong passion for animals. I will be providing dog walking, house sitting and drop ins for dogs and cats. I have lots of experience with both, from taking care of my own pets to watching others in the past. I work, but am very flexible with my hours and open to most days and times. I'm outgoing so would be able to play and be active with pets that need to burn energy and like to have fun. I'm open to taking pets to a park or on trails to go on adventures. I'm very responsible and respectful. I'd treat every furbaby like they were one of my own. I'm comfortable with multiple pets all shapes and sizes. I'm great at following instructions if they needed certain feeding details and or also medication. I'm excited and hoping to work with alot of wonderful people and their animals. It's everyday. I feel better about myself knowing I've been able to help others and their pets have the best day that's possible for them. I treat my pets like my children. I'm a upstanding respectful young man who would be professional and caring the entire interaction with peoples home and their pets.
About: I’ll treat your baby like mine when they’re in my care. I’m the kind to have a closest for my dog’s clothes. I love playing fetch with the pups all day and then chilling with them on the couch at night. They’re in good care with me. I have a a dog and 2 cats of my own and my daily schedule is curated around their life. So I know how important daily animal care is. I have a fenced in yard with lots of shade that’s decently private and is safe. There is no weird or questionable things sitting in my yard. My pup loves it out there.
“Chayanne was great. She was flexible, able to meet me at the last minute and take the job. She was there everyday on the day/time I requested and stayed for 30 minutes giving my cat lexi some much needed company and sending me pictures of her. Highly recommended.”
“Julie took such good care of my two fur babies. She even got my skittish Calamity to play. If it’s ok with her, I will definitely use her again in the future. Thanks, Julie. From Stripe and Calamity.”

“Erica does so well with our dog, Duke. She checks in on him when our regular sitter is unavailable. She is very responsive and sends lots of photos of our pup while we are working. Highly recommend her!”
About: Hello! My name is Kate and I have been caring for animals for 20+ years, or as long as I can remember! My family has always referred to me as the "dog whisperer" due to my natural connection to them. I have experience with every age group, from young pups to our dear senior citizens. Friends and family have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they're away, walk them, feed them, bathe them, or give them medication. I look forward to helping to care for your family member, and making sure they have the best experience possible. I am available 7 days a week and my schedule is flexible! Let me know what works best for you, and I can work around yours and your animals needs. I am extremely attentive to the needs of your animal and will always make sure that they receive whatever level care or attention that they will need.
“Leanne was very responsive to our request for our two dogs. She arrived right on time and cared for our dogs and sent plenty of pictures. Gave us piece of mind! Thank you again!!”
About: I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m happy to care for dogs of different ages and energy levels, including playful puppies, active dogs, and sweet seniors who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated, and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m able to make pet care a priority in my routine and will work with you to provide dependable care around your pet’s needs. I understand that consistency is important, especially for pets who are used to a particular feeding, walking, medication, or bedtime schedule. I’ll make sure your pet receives the attention and care we agree on, and I’ll communicate with you if anything unexpected comes up. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules. In your home, I’ll treat your space respectfully and make sure doors, gates, and other safety precautions are secure. I’ll always keep your pet’s personality and comfort level in mind rather than forcing interaction. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine or providing walks and drop-ins, you can expect patience, attentiveness, and responsible care.
About: Hi! My name is Ashley, and I am a Registered Vet Tech. I am currently working part time on Thursdays at a local emergency veterinary hospital, and stay home with the kids the rest of the week. I am unable to bring dogs into my own home but can do drop in visits and walks whenever is needed! I have very open availability every day except Thursdays, but am able to visit thursday mornings and evenings. I look forward to meeting you and your babies!!! I'm currently working part time on Thursdayss. I'm usually available all other days of the week and on Thursdays in the early morning and evenings. Before I start care I like to do a meet and greet so that when I enter your home for my first visit, your babies are already familiar with me. Drop in visits, for me, include a potty walk if your back yard isn't fenced in and lots of loving!
“Alicia did a wonderful job caring for our shy, but sweet boy (cat) and our home. She was great about checking in, sending pics and communicating with me throughout the time she stayed. And she left our house spotless. I’d happily ask her to sit for us again and recommend her to others looking for a responsible, caring sitter for their pets.”
“Jessica P. did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation!!! Despite being new to ROVER, she has a wealth of experience and truly loves what she does. We appreciated the daily reports Jessica provided through the ROVER app, which included photos and updates. She was very punctual with our pets twice daily feedings, and we felt extremely confident our fur babies were in good hands. My husband and I can't wait to book our next adventure knowing Jessica P. will be there to take care of our pups!!!”

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Troy. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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 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.
