“Johanna visit my cat, Tux, while I was away for a few days, feeding, changing litter, having play time. Johannah clearly loves animals and is kind and conscientious.

“Ana was great! She looked after our cats over Christmas, and we returned to two happy and relaxed kitties, along with a tidy home. She kept us up to date daily, and communication was always quick and easy. Thank you! :) ”
About: As a freelance artist my time is entirely my own and that flexibility means I can give your pets all the attention they need. I love long walks in nature and have experience with many breeds and temperaments in many different areas, from mountain walking/running with dogs to a gentle stroll round the block. Very flexible and freelance artist, so can easily make my own schedule. I drive and am very happy to travel. Typically I prefer morning/midday walks to kick start the day! This entirely depends upon the history of each pet. I respect the pet’s owners choices and treat every pet with as much care and attention that I can.
“Thanks Amaris! This was my first time using Rover and Amaris was great! Wallace seemed totally unbothered that I had left him! Amaris was great at communicating with me and I knew she would look after my puppy! Thank you!”
About: Hi there! I am grad of New York University (BFA) and Drama Centre London (MA), living in London on the Global Talent Visa. I grew up with many pets in my life. I had never owned less than three dogs until I left my home in Orange County for the big apple where I studied at NYU. I have a huge space in my heart for animals and would love to spend some time caring for your dog(s) or cat(s). I have a great deal of experience dog walking, sitting, and boarding both inside and outside of Rover. In moving across the pond, I had to say a sad 'see ya later' to my favorite little cutie pies back home -- Dallas a sweet, sweet chocolate lab, and Abby and Bella, the cutest little cockapoos that ever were. The good news about my doggy withdrawal is that your pets will get more than enough attention, walks/runs, play time, and cuddle time. I am very attentive and sensitive to the needs of animals -- I nearly became a veterinarian before I decided to follow my passion in the arts. I am writing a feature film which means I will be home with the doggos a lot of the time, working on that project and a few other jobs I do remotely. I run a theatre production company and am in pre-production as well for a few films. I am very responsible and will take such good care of your furry friends! Look forward to meeting you and them :) I am an actor, so in between jobs I have quite a flexible schedule. Currently working on writing a screenplay and other remote projects which means I will have plenty of time for your pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is as safe as can possibly be and will confirm details with you when staying in your home or boarding at mine about what they are used to, and what will make them feel cozy and safe etc.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. Growing up in Uruguay, my mum and I regularly rescued abandoned puppies from the streets. We would bring them home, feed them, bathe them, deworm them and give them all the care and affection they needed until we found them loving families. These experiences taught me patience, responsibility and how to care for animals with different personalities and needs, especially puppies who require extra attention. I’ve also had many pets of my own throughout my life, so I understand how important they are to their families. I’m a friendly, patient and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether it’s taking dogs for walks, playing with them, feeding them or simply keeping them company, I always make sure they feel safe, happy and loved. I believe every pet deserves kindness, attention and respect, and I’ll always treat yours as if they were my own. I’m currently working afternoon and evening shifts, which means I have free time in the mornings to spend with your pets. I’m also available on Fridays and Saturdays, when I can offer more flexibility My love for animals goes far beyond just a job. Caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy and have done throughout my life. Your pet’s safety, happiness and comfort will always be my priorities. I understand that every animal is different, so I’ll always respect their personality, follow their routines and make sure they feel safe and loved. I’ll treat your home with respect and happily provide regular photos and updates for your peace of mind

Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've 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're 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'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
