About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give to every pet. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, including administering medication and providing attentive daily care. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routines and giving them personalized attention. I also follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully. My two children also love animals and are always excited to help me give them plenty of love, attention, and care. We enjoy caring for pets together and making sure every furry friend feels happy, safe, and part of our family while they stay with us. 🐾❤️ I truly enjoy caring for pets as part of my daily routine. I make time every day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, walks, and comfort to pets, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times available weekdays and weekends “I provide pets with a safe, clean, and loving environment both in my home and in my client’s home. I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and rest to help them feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away
“Stephen and his family are the absolute best! My dogs were obviously comfortable and excited to see them daily. I received photos and updates every day, and am so happy to have trusted sitters. I would highly recommend them!”
About: Caring for animals has been my life long passion. I treat every individual with respect, as if they were my own fur baby. I look forward to all animal interactions and I understand each animal needs tailored care, patience and love. I have volunteer dog walked all sorts of homeless pups in the last year through ACCT, pictured in my gallery. I also have extensive cat knowledge/experience. With some time spent in the vet med field. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! Building clientele to be able to fully work with animals. I care for my own two cat babies daily and volunteer dog walk for homeless dogs every week. I treat all animals with compassion, respect and patience. I read animal body language well, respect boundaries and exercise patience whenever needed. Following your guidelines are most important to me.
About: I’ve grown up with many pets from the age of two. But since I was probably 13 I’ve been pet sitting for family friends, family members, and neighbors. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, and a rabbit. And I am always learning about animals and how to best care for them. I am currently working part-time. But my job is very flexible. I don’t have a specific set of days that I have to work- it will be sporadically in the week. But I am always able to discuss scheduling. My three dogs have a big fenced in yard and get lots of exercise. Sometimes we go to the dog park for some socialization. At my clients homes, I walk as many times as they need, feeding, and medications (if there are any). For cats, I will clean litter, feed, do medications as needed as well, and playing if they like that!
About: Hi everyone! My family and I are huge animal lovers. While we love all kinds of pets, cats and dogs hold a special place in our hearts.

What We Offer: -Dog Walking: We love staying active! Walks can range anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on the weather and your dog's energy levels. -Bathing & Grooming Support: I can easily accommodate special requests for baths. Having worked through bath-time anxiety with my own dogs, I have plenty of patience and personal experience making it a calm, safe process. - Drop-In Visits: I’m available for drop-ins to assist with feeding, play, or potty breaks—whatever your fur baby needs while you're away. - Boarding: I would love to host your dog in our home! To ensure a safe and happy environment for both your pet and ours, I require a quick initial meet-and-greet at my home first. If you have any questions or want to see if we're a good fit, please feel free to send a message. I'd be happy to chat! Im a stay at home mom with a lot of availability. I am able to provide one on one time. Walks, play, training if needed. I love all animals and I handle every pet and home with the upmost respect. I am attentive and thorough when visiting or watching your pet.
“She’ll was GREAT. Extremely thorough. My pup ate a dead flower petal while under her care and she was quick to swipe it from him and follow through with my Listed vet and her own to ensure no toxicity. The texted me immediately too. He was all good! She took great pics and detailed report cards. She was flexible with coordinating as well. Would def recommend her to anyone.”
“Thank you for loving our energetic dog while we were away!!! Lindsey was amazing and Bruno was so well taken care of. She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos! 🐶”
“Denise did a great job taking care of our 4 month old kittens and put me at ease by sending lots of cute pictures and videos and keeping me updated. She responded to my booking request quickly and we met that day and we booked her with only a few days notice. Highly recommended. Thanks Denise!”
“Fallon is fantastic! She took care of my pup exactly as I asked, and when he lost a bit of his appetite from missing me, she knew right away what to do to help him eat. I couldn't thank her enough. Highly recommended!”
“Faith was so wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so comfortable - she was very timely and kept us updated on our rocky boy at all times. She also got the best pictures / videos. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
About: I have had multiple dogs ever since I was 10 and have never had an issue with any of them. They know they are loved and cared for! Currently I’m between jobs so I have a good and open schedule to care for your animals. I love animals and have a lot of fun playing with them and walking them! We have a fence at my house that allows my dog at home to have a wide open space for playing and exploring. He also receives many bones for good behavior throughout the day.
“Sophia was great with the pets. She contacted me with any questions/concerns she had which I appreciated. Responsive with texts and spent time with my fur babies. Thank you Sophia!”
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring reliability, calm confidence, and genuine affection to every pet I look after. I understand routines, behavior cues, and how to create a stress‑free environment for animals of all ages. You can trust that your pet will receive attentive care, clear communication, and a safe, comfortable space. Your peace of mind, and your pet’s happiness, are always my top priorities. Animals have always been part of my everyday life, so pet care blends seamlessly into my routine. I’m used to balancing work, errands, and pet responsibilities, from morning play sessions to evening wind downs. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like an interruption. I provide all pet care directly in my clients’ homes, where animals feel safest and most comfortable. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and any special instructions, so nothing in their day feels unfamiliar or stressful. I pay attention to their habits, moods, and comfort levels, and I make sure their space stays clean, calm, and consistent while their family is away. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and cared for in the environment they know best.
“Chris was wonderful with my cat Fenrys - he sent great updates daily, and went about making friends at Fenrys’s pace. I felt so secure leaving him in Chris’s care!”
About: Currently, in our family, we have a senior dog, Edie. Edie was a rescue and we've had her since she was four, she's now twelve She is well attended to, from receiving her daily medications, to her regular vet visits. Edie is my constant companion. She is usually by my side all day long. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time available to watch and care for your K9. I am available with advanced notice. No longer inconvenienced by a work schedule. I am working on several projects for my model railroad club at home since I've retired. Our dog, Edie is well taken care of in our home. We make sure Edie is fed ever morning and receives her daily medications. She is taken to her regular vet visits. Since Edie is an older dog, she doesn't go for walks as often in the summertime but gets regular backyard visits. She does likes to sunbathe. When she's up to it, we wrestle and play rope tug from time to time. Edie is pretty much by my side all day long. You know you're pet the best, I will follow your directions, while you dog is in my care.
“Melissa did an outstanding job taking care of our cat Belle while we were on vacation. She kept us up to date with pictures and summaries on how Belle was doing while we were away. It gave us peace of mind to know how well she was being cared for!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vernon
Emilyann was great with Luke, and he seemed to really look forward to her visits. I am thrilled that they got along so well. I am delighted to have Emilyann take care of Luke in his own home, where he's most relaxed! Emilyann is great with animals, very calm and confident! I will utilize her skills again!
Bri did a terrific job. I have to say I was worried that Max was going to be too much for anyone to watch. It was first time we had someone watch him. He could be intimidating at 130 lbs and Bri found him to be nothing but a cuddle buddy. I highly recommended Bri and look forward to using her services again. Seriously , thank you.
Amanda did a drop-in visit and walk with our dog Ellie while we were gone for a long day. She was professional and reliable and it was so nice to know Ellie would have a nice walk and some attention (and be fed!) while we were gone for the day. Would definitely have Amanda take care if Ellie again!
Where to start? She was amazing. Went above and beyond. Even walked my baby in the rain. We appreciate everything you did and all the love you have to our Sadie and cats. You're the best. Thanks again for everything. Truly made us feel that our pets were in great hands
We hired Brynn to come into our home to feed and walk our older dog when we went away overnight. She did an excellent job and sent us texts and photos each time. Our pup was in good spirits when we returned. I would definitely have her come again and recommend her highly.

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.

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 Vernon 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.

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.

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.
