“As per usual, Kay was wonderful with the pets, and very communicative! Knowing she’s with the cats gives me peace of mind. Definitely will ask for her services again!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and other animals. While I was stationed at Fort Polk, many of my fellow Soldiers would go on leave, travel home for the holidays, or be away for training. Since I stayed in Louisiana and did not travel because I purchased my home here, I was often happy to help by caring for their pets. I would feed them, take them on walks, play with them, exercise them, make sure they had fresh water, and give them plenty of attention until their owners returned. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine. I am CPR certified, physically fit, dependable, and treat every animal like family. I have a spacious home where pets have room to relax and feel comfortable, and I will always make sure they receive the care, exercise, and affection they deserve. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. As a 1099 contractor, my hours vary, which gives me the ability to work around your pet’s needs. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, midday check-in, evening care, or overnight attention, I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. I understand how important consistency is, and I am committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where every pet is treated like family. I am CPR certified and have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. My wife and I have rescued stray cats and cared for numerous animals over the years, so we understand the patience and attention every pet deserves. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you have. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving excellent care.
“Hailey is very professional. She comes on schedule, fulfills all tasks that we'd agreed on ahead of time, adapts to new developments and informs me immediately when something changes. (The only issue was the spare key didn't work, which was totally my fault, but we were able to get it sorted through good communication.) As an added bonus, she takes very cute photos of my cats, and I could tell from those that my more shy cat was warming up to her after only a short time. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I could remember. I’ve had numerous dogs throughout my life and i’ve taken care of all of them including cats. I go to college so I am available Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays from 12pm-7pm and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available from 1:30pm-7pm. I am also available early mornings on Saturdays! I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and playtime. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I also respect my clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and give owners peace of mind while they’re away! 🐾💕
About: I have been around dogs of all sizes. My dogs are both over 55 pounds and full of energy. I can handle any energy level as well. I look forward to working with you and your dogs in the near future! I am a full time behavior tech at an ABA clinic. I work 8:00-3:30 Monday thru Friday, but am free any other time of the week. I am willing to take care of your babies in your home! I provide a loving environment and will love them like I would my own.
“Savanna is a fantastic sitter. She is very sweet and she loves animals. She is not afraid of a litter box and will even water your plants if asked. I looked forward to her notes and pictures every morning as it gave me comfort knowing Oliver and the ferals were being well taken care of. I would absolutely have her watch my little friends again.”
“Tessa came to check on my pets at the precise times I needed her to; on top of that, she was a very consistent communicator while I was away! I’m glad I booked with her and look forward to doing so again 🖤 10/10 recommend”
“London was great! She was very prompt, followed all my instructions, and stayed for the full hour during each visit. She fed both of my cats their wet food, gave my older cat her asthma medication, and spent time playing with them. Would book again and recommend!”
“I made a last minute ( the night before) 3 day dropin booking in a city we were visiting for our 4 mo old schnauzers who needed a mid day potty break. Amanda was prompt with text responses, took on the job and sent us photo updates. It was a great relief for us. There were two other adult dogs in the house who were good for the full day and she took them out also even though we didn't ask for it. This extra service was greatly appreciated also.”
About: Hi! I'm Maria, and I live in Carencro. I offer a cozy, peaceful home with a fully fenced yard for comfort and safety. I've had dogs my whole life, and in recent years I've been educating myself through courses and reading about canine health, training, and behavior. For over ten years, I've been a trusted caregiver for friends and family, especially for small dogs. Here's what your dog will find here: • A safe, fenced yard for quick potty breaks and sunbathing (under supervision) • A calm, chaos-free indoor environment — perfect for lap dogs, seniors, and puppies • Plenty of couch cuddles, patience, and an established routine • Dogs who need space can rest in a cozy, separate area without any pressure to play • Daily updates with photos and videos I know every dog is different, so I stick to the routine they have at home. I'd love to meet your best friend! I work 4 to 6 hours a day; the rest of the time, I am at home. I always take them out to the yard before I leave, and I make sure they have food and water. When I return, I take them out to the yard again, and we go for a walk, following our established routine. They usually stay indoors, except for morning and evening walks and bathroom breaks in the fenced yard, which last approximately 30 minutes, three times a day. The dogs eat according to a schedule set by the owner, and they have the freedom to move freely around the house and lie down wherever they want. I have a medium-sized mixed-breed dog who usually ignores other dogs and sometimes plays with them if he likes them.
About: Have had pets since I was young. Experience with a variety ranging from dogs and cats to reptiles and rodents. Newborn to seniors and special needs. Recently stopped working and soon to be an empty nester when my daughter leaves for grad school. This will give me pretty much open availability. Will care for your pet in your home as if they were my own but with your instructions. They will never lack for love and attention.
“Kylie was attentive to our dog's needs and was careful to get all information about all of our pets. They enjoyed her and we all appreciate the extra effort she put forth to make sure our fur babies were happy.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. Growing up, I helped care for a litter of three dogs and later helped care for our senior dog through arthritis and other age-related health challenges, which taught me patience, compassion, and attentive care. I currently have a chocolate Labrador puppy that I’m actively training, giving me hands-on experience with puppy routines, basic training, and positive reinforcement. I’ve also cared for other pets throughout my life, including fish and hamsters, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. My goal is to provide every pet with the same love, safety, and attention I’d want for my own, while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. I’m especially available on Fridays and Saturdays, making weekends a great time to book walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. During the week, I work Monday–Thursday from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM and Sundays from 7:45 AM to 12:30 PM, but I’m available before and after those hours. No matter the day, I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure every pet gets the time, exercise, and love they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. If you’re comfortable with it and your dog enjoys the company of other dogs, they’re welcome to have supervised playtime with my friendly chocolate Lab puppy for extra socialization and fun. I’ll always respect your preferences and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, reliable hands.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for most of my life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals and pet sitting for friends and family from a young age gave me a strong foundation in providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I have experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, including feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take pride in following instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure. As the owner of a reactive and anxious Labradoodle and a strong-willed Golden Retriever mix, I have firsthand experience working with dogs that require extra patience, awareness, and positive reinforcement. I’m familiar with clicker training techniques, leash reactivity management, and creating calm, positive experiences during walks and visits. Whether your pet needs exercise, attention, medication, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own pets. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have time for early morning or evening drop-ins during the week and open availability on weekends. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand the importance of following routines, administering medications correctly, and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. As the owner of an anxious, reactive dog, I’m experienced in handling pets who need extra patience and attention. I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own, and I’ll keep you updated throughout every visit for added peace of mind.
About: I’ve been a veterinary technician for 8 years with knowledge and experience to care for a variety of needs for all types of pets. What this means for you: when you book with me you’re booking for gold standard care of a luxury style in home boarding vs. kennel boarding. I typically only work 3 days a week leaving me with open availability for the other days. These days do vary, but can be discussed further to meet needs. I have a privacy fence for a large play and potty area. Pets will be walked on the regular for exercise and feed as requested by the owner. All boarding/daycare dogs are required to be up to date on core vaccines (records provided prior to drop off) and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. They also must be provided a crate. This is to ensure safety of your pet.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life. I was a dog breeder for many years but no longer sell but i still wanted a job surrounded by dogs I've been around and taken care of small dogs all the way to extra large dogs.Im very equip and your pet would be in good hands! I had a pitbull for 12 years and I had to learn how to train him and work with him. So im also experienced with more energetic dogs. As he got older I had to give him his pills every day. I don't have any dogs right now but would love the opportunity to care for yours! I would devote as much time as needed to care for your pet! My schedule is open and I would work around yours. Taking care of your pet would become my job. I would care for your pet according to the clients instructions. I would make sure the pet is hydrated and has plenty of water. They would have plenty of food. They would get lots of love and attention.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
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.
