About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was in elementary school. We have 5 cats and 5 dogs of our own. I am a certified foster for the SPCA and several other rescues. I take medical cases and am comfortable giving medicines. All ages of pets and needs welcome! Pets are my number 1 priority. I make my schedule around the pets I am caring for! I treat them like my own and their needs come first ! I have a 6 foot fenced in yard and take dogs into my own when needed. Otherwise I watch dogs in their own environment to make them as comfortable as possible when their owners are away.
“Seana did a great job, followed directions wonderfully, and made us feel very comfortable with updates and pictures! We highly recommend her! This was our first time using anyone other than a kennel or relatives, and we would not hesitate in the future.”
“We were so lucky to have Stacy take care of our dog Mila while we were away! Mila takes a lot of medication and Stacy made sure she takes everything on time. She went above and beyond to make Mila feel comfortable with a new person in the house and by her second or third visit Mila was already as exited to see Stacy as she is to see us. Stacy answered all my questions and was available to discuss how Mila is doing 24/7”
“Rebecca was a lifesaver dropping in to let our Holly out and give her a little company! The drop in went well, and Holly was happy to see Rebecca. I will not hesitate to book Rebecca again. Thank you, Rebecca!!”
About: Since 2010, I have always owned two dogs at a time. I love animals, love meeting new pets, and have a lot of patience. I would love to get to know your fur baby. 🙂 I am available 4 days/week, including every weekend. I can do walks, feeds, drop ins, play time, whatever your current needs may be. I have a lot of flexibility on my available days. I have a large fenced in yard if your dog likes to run and requires exercise. I also have an XL crate in my home, that my dogs no longer need, but could be used if your pup would prefer an enclosed area for sleeping.
About: Life long dog owner here! Whether your dog is small or often gets mistaken for a horse, I'd be happy to take them for their daily walks. I've formed strong connections with my household animals since I was a kid and would love to get to know you and yours. I currently have a flexible schedule and am open to accommodate your needs as a pet owner. Just give me a heads up and we can work it out. Open to different training styles and will be sure to follow any instructions you've given for your dog's care. I am a data analytics contractor looking to fill some time for some extra income. My schedule is currently pretty flexible for walks, and I'm trying to be on my feet a lot more in general. I take safety and trust seriously. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Walks are always on-leash, and I pay close attention to surroundings to keep your dog safe. I’m comfortable with crates if needed, and I make sure food, water, and medication instructions are followed carefully. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for like family.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud owner of my cat, Bubba, who has taught me a lot about patience, routine, and the small things that make pets feel safe. I’ve helped friends and family care for their dogs and cats for years: feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and just being a calm presence while they’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send photo updates so you know your pet is in good hands. Whether your dog needs a long walk or your cat just wants company, I’ll treat them like my own. I have a flexible schedule and can fit pet care into most parts of my day. I’m available for morning and evening walks during the week, drop-in visits midday, and longer stays on weekends. I’ll always confirm timing in advance and stick to the routine you set for your pet: consistency matters, especially for younger or older animals. I offer drop-in visits and walks at your home, so your pet stays in the environment they know best. I’ll follow your house rules, keep doors and gates secured, and send photo updates during each visit. I live with my cat Bubba in a calm, smoke-free home, so I’m comfortable around animals who are shy or take time to warm up. If anything seems off, appetite, behavior, or health, I’ll reach out right away.
“Absolutely phenomenal. Went above and beyond. So easy to communicate with, sends photos and videos, loves my cat, and most importantly - he loves her! Will never use another cat sitter unless I’m forced to :-)”

I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to creating a safe, fun, and comforting environment for them. I enjoy the outdoors, staying active, and connecting with animals, which makes dog walking the perfect fit for me. Most of all, I know how much pets mean to their owners, and I’m here to give you peace of mind while giving your fur baby the care and affection they deserve. I look forward in hearing from you! Schedule ⏰: Whenever a family is in need of a sitter or just a quick check in, I hope to be the one you call!

About: What can I say... dogs make the world a better place! Your fur baby deserves lots of love and attention. I've loved dogs since I was a kid. As an adult I've had the pleasure of bonding with and caring for a number of breeds varying in ages and sizes over the years: from shy teacups to oversized mushes. Since 2023, I decided to make more time for sharing my love and playfulness through dog sitting, dog walking, play dates and even doing dog portraits! With my flexible schedule as a freelancer, I enjoy making time for play dates, snuggles and most meal times with your sweet fur baby throughout the week. If you're interested in having me dog sit overnight, we can consider it after 3 completed regular visits to your home (over a minimum of 2 calendar days) to make sure everyone is comfortable beforehand. Do you prefer that your sweetie is crated, gated or free roaming in your home after they're fed & walked? Do you and your furry best friend have a specific routine? Let me know! Routine and consistency can help develop trust and reduce anxiety which are so important in doggy care.
“It seems like our puppy had a great time with Mr. Fernandez. He sent us pictures and gave us updates in our puppy during his stay. He was very accommodating and was available on short notice. He will now be our permanent doggy sitter.”

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 Washington Crossing 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.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
