About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 7. From cats and dogs to fish and chinchillas, I’ve taken care of them all! Relatives and friends have relied on me take care of their fuzzy friends. I’m experienced cleaning up, washing, feeding and bathing dogs. I also love taking care cats as well. I’m cat and dog person! As a bonus, treats are always on my person. I work at my first job Monday - Friday 8:45 am- 4:15pm. I’m easy to make a schedule out of your cats and dogs. 🐕 🐈 I have two four small four legged friends at my home that enjoy company of others. I have large property with plenty of land to play and burn energy. Treats are always in stock as well.
“Jennifer went above & beyond! She’s very sweet & bubbly, also professional & kind. She adapted to all my crazy-cat-lady antics & took care of my cat so well! She even cleaned up after a surprise bird massacre…”
“RaeAnna was amazing with my dog. The booking process was easy and she provided consistent updates. She was respectful and courteous throughout the entire process! Thanks again! I will definitely be booking with her again next time we are needing a dog sitter.”
About: What sets me apart is my ability to provide structured, knowledgeable care rooted in a professional healthcare background and genuine passion. I have spent my life raising and caring for animals, giving me a deep understanding of what pets need to feel safe and loved. I have extensive experience training young puppies on essential obedience and potty training, as well as managing the delicate needs of senior dogs. I know how to carefully balance senior exercise routines to prevent pain and support their longevity. Additionally, as a cat parent of two, I understand feline body language and how to design an environment with proper scratch and play outlets to satisfy their natural instincts. From meticulous coat brushing to seamlessly cleaning up accidents, I am entirely comfortable with the full reality of pet care. I treat every pet in my care with the unconditional dedication they deserve. I am currently working part time in the evenings, so early mornings and afternoons are when I have the most availability. Having 3 days off every week provides me with extra time to spend with your pets as needed. Building trust means keeping a pet's environment safe, predictable, and stress-free. In your home, I strictly adhere to the layout and boundaries your pets are already used to. I carefully manage household safety by making sure harmful items are well out of reach, checking that doors lock securely behind me, and keeping outdoor walks highly controlled and focused on safety. I believe clear communication is key to trust, so I provide detailed updates and photos after my visits. I am entirely comfortable keeping up with house rules, maintaining strict sanitation, and providing a reliable, loving presence so your pets can thrive right where they are most comfortable.
About: I am an older person with experience with pets. I love them unconditionally. I would love to help you by loving your animal too! Amen My cat is my support animal and she stays by my side at all times. I cant even describe how much I truly love her. I am loyal and trustworthy. I would treat your home with the utmost respect. I am older so you don't have to worry about parties lol
“Morgan was amazing with my dog Alli!!! She helped us out last minute, sent us a ton of pictures and updates on their visits, and took such good care of Alli! We’ll definitely use her again!!”
About: I’m not a teen :) so I will show up without fail on time every time. I’m not the cheap option but I guarantee that there’ll be no surprises if you hire me. If you have multiple pets, please reach out to me, we can discuss a personalized rate. (Pet Sitting/night rate covers me being with your pet 17hours/day, usually from 5 pm to 10 am) I am around dogs and cats all my life, that’s my happy place and I love every aspect of it, even the not so glamorous parts like cleaning, listening to barking, or dealing with emergencies. I worked at a pet Resort for years here in Alaska working with all types of furry friends. I have a soft spot for seniors, I also have a lovely old lady in my home, a 12 year old German Shepherd, Molly. If I may suggest something to any pet owner in our valley: please don’t choose your sitter based on who’s the cheapest available option… taking care of your pets in your home is a big responsibility. Great joy as well of course but it must be done with 100% attention, care and love. I can promise that 100% because that’s the only setting in my book when it comes to animals. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need help, I would love to be there for you and for your pets. I raised three children, all grown-up now. I have the time now for your pets. Because of my love for animals, I look forward to helping you when you need it! Safety is THE most important aspect of taking care of a pet, so before I start working with one I always have multiple questions to the owner. Knowing your doggie, knowing the routine, the environment etc is a crucial factor in providing a safe and quality service.
About: Hello! We would love to be part of your pet’s support circle! My husband and I both grew up with pets as family members and loved one sweet fur baby of our own. We love the energy and joy they bring to life! We are now a family of 3 with a sweet, gentle daughter who loves animals as well. She has been asking for a pet but as we’re not able to commit at this time, we would love to dedicate our time to the part-time care of yours! We are ready to love your furry pal💜 I am a full-time Mom so am available most of the day. We can adjust our day to working with your pet’s needs and preferences as well! We will treat your loved one with the utmost care and attention and will provide and shower them with lots of sweet lovies all day long!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wasilla
Ashley is phenomenal! She is personable, thorough, and so loving with our aging little guy. He has a lot of meds to take and Ashley administered them with no issue twice a day. Our guy warmed up to her instantly because she was giving him lots of cuddles and walks. No doubt, Ashley is the best sitter we have ever had.

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.

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.
