“Absolutely wonderful. Had to work a long shift and Sharonda came with very little heads up and took amazing care of my puppy. She was very kind and sent updates! Would encourage anyone to use her she is great!”


“Lexie was great! She was really accommodating for a late-night potty break and followed all the directions perfectly. I appreciated her reliability and care with my two fur babies. Communication was above & beyond. I would definitely book again!”

“Kirsten was great! She stepped in to help with some cat-sitting in a last-minute situation and was very responsive and kind. She took lots of pictures and videos and was able to get a shy, skittish cat to be playful and fun during the time she spent with her. Kirsten is obviously great at what she does and I'd recommend her to anyone needed their dogs or cats watched. She is caring, attentive and communicative and I knew my cat was in good hands while I was away!”
About: I’ve had my own pets for over 40 years. They were my babies and I cared for them as such!! They are my heart’s passion. I’m now a healthy strong retired woman who has loved to help family and friends pet sit their 4 legged babies. So I’m opening myself up to others!! I have a safe place to walk animals by my condo and parents with a beautiful back yard to also take them to adventure. It’s just me in my house so it’s clean, safe, simple sweet and quiet atmosphere.

“Aubrey took wonderful care of my senior cat. She provided detailed updates every day and was available for phone calls. She brushed her and made sure she had her meds and special treats. She went above and beyond. It was a longer trip than I usually take, and it was reassuring to know my cat was being cared for so well.”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Maria watching our cat! She was incredibly attentive, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable. She spent lots of quality time with her and sent us frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

About: Hi, I’m Lisa! I am passionate about providing top-notch care for pets of all ages. With a reputation for reliability, excellent communication, and a deep sense of responsibility, I am dedicated to ensuring your pets receive the attention they deserve. I can monitor your pet’s health and administer medications according to you or your veterinarian's instructions, while you’re away. My commitment to open communication—including regular updates with photos and videos—further distinguishes me as a trustworthy caregiver. Additionally, I believe in the importance of being well-educated and knowledgeable about different pet breeds and understanding their specific physical needs. My personalized approach and dedication to meeting the individual needs of each pet makes me an exceptional choice for pet owners seeking high-quality and attentive care for their furry friends. I specialize in caring for your pets on their schedules. So, whether you’re at work, and your pet just needs a potty break, or you’re out of town on vacation, you can be sure your fur babies are getting the best care and attention possible. As a caregiver, pet care is an integral part of my daily or weekly routine. It involves scheduled activities such as feeding, walking, and playtime, all tailored to the individual needs of each pet I'm responsible for. Additionally, I prioritize communication with pet owners, providing them with updates on their pets' well-being and addressing any concerns that may arise. Ensuring that pets receive proper care, attention, and companionship is a consistent and important aspect of my routine. Having someone reliable, care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, has been shown to minimize stress while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client's home, there are several important aspects for me to consider: 1. ** Feeding and Watering:** Ensure that the pets are fed according to their schedule and dietary requirements. Provide fresh water at all times. 2. **Medications:** Administer any necessary medications as instructed by the client or veterinarian. 3. **Exercise:** Take the pets for regular walks or outdoor playtime to meet their exercise needs and provide mental stimulation. 4. **Toilet Breaks:** Let the pets out for bathroom breaks and clean up after them as needed. 5. **Play and Interaction:** Engage in interactive play sessions, provide toys, and offer companionship to prevent boredom and loneliness. 6. **Housekeeping:** Ensure the pet's living area is clean and tidy, including cleaning up any accidents or messes. 7. **Communication:** Maintain open communication with the pet owner, providing updates on their pets' well-being and any concerns that arise. 8. **Emergency Preparedness:** Be aware of emergency contacts, the location of the nearest veterinary clinic, and any specific instructions for emergencies. Every pet is unique, so it's crucial for me to follow the owner's instructions and cater to the specific needs and routines of each pet I am caring for.

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 Walkertown 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 .
