“Lauriel was wonderful! My pets were very well taken care of and I don’t even know how much they missed us. They enjoyed her so much! That is how I want to be! She was professional, prompt, and always sent pictures of my dog and cat! We will definitely use her again. She was wonderful.”
“Grace was AMAZING and is so knowledgeable about dogs and their unique needs. She was so patient and knew exactly how to get our dog with bad anxiety more comfortable. We really appreciate her help and the updates during the drop- in visit.”
About: I grew up taking care of my 2 collies and helping out with family members pets. I am experienced with managing large breeds and high energy dogs. I am currently on summer break from university, so I have a lot more free time. I am available on weekdays after 11 and weekends I have full availability. Once I return to school in late August, my schedule will change slightly. I’ll be available on weekdays after 1:30 PM and on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. If I happen to get out of class early, I may also be available before 1:30 on some days. Safety is my top priority. I treat every pet as my own, maintaining a calm, clean, and safe environment. Ahead of time, I ask about any triggers your pet may have and make sure we walk in comfortable environments.
About: I have always had animals and I have a genuine love for animals of all kinds. Spending time with pets doesn’t feel like a job to me — it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m naturally attentive, gentle, and patient, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet very seriously. My job is flexible so I have the time and availability to assist with whatever your needs are. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needing a calm presence, I adapt to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent while you’re away. You can count on me to provide regular updates and photos, so you always feel connected and reassured. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same kindness, attention, and respect that I would want for my own. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your furry family member. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to devote to your babies! My schedule allows me to fully devote myself to whatever instructions you leave, even if it's time consuming. I will love and enjoy every minute of interacting with and loving on your pet(s). When caring for pets in your home, I am respectful, responsible, and detail-oriented. I follow your pet’s routine exactly as instructed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure your home remains clean and secure, double-checking doors and gates each visit. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you always feel confident and informed. My goal is to provide safe, reliable care you can truly trust.
About: I worked at a dog kennel/police dog training facility over the summers as a teen so I'm familiar with many different dog breeds. I also grew up with 4 hunting dogs, so I understand high energy dogs and their need to go for walks (or runs!) I'm currently a teacher on summer break so I have plenty of time on weekdays to take your pup on a long walk or play with your cats! I am happy to care your furry friends any way that works best for them and their routine within a safe and familiar environment, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
“Kate has been amazing with taking care of Pandora! She’s patient, caring, and very dependable. Kate gives very detailed notes and we always feel like Pandora is getting top tier care! Thank you Kate!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and I’m the person animals tend to relax around quickly. Even the anxious, shy, or “takes a minute to warm up” types usually settle in fast with me. I’m comfortable with: * High-energy dogs that need structure and movement * Older dogs that need patience and a slower pace * Cats (including the ones who pretend they don’t like anyone) My approach is simple: I meet your pet where they are. Some want play and stimulation. Others just want calm presence and consistency. I adjust to them—not the other way around. What You Can Expect * Clear, consistent communication (updates + photos without you having to ask) * Reliable timing — I show up when I say I will * Respect for your home and routines * A calm, steady presence that pets respond well to I don’t treat this like a quick gig—I treat it like your pet is depending on me, because they are. Why Clients Choose Me A lot of sitters can “watch” pets. Fewer actually understand how to read them. I pay attention to behavior, energy, and small changes so your pet stays comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. 🐾 Extras * Comfortable with basic routines, feeding schedules, walks, and play * Happy to follow specific instructions (meds, routines, quirks) * Flexible depending on your pet’s needs If you’re looking for someone reliable, calm, and easy to work with—who your pet will actually enjoy being around—I’m a good fit. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet consistent attention and not just quick drop-ins. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, with afternoons and evenings wide open. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, or extended stays depending on your needs. I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so your pet gets real time, not rushed care. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time, and I’m experienced managing multiple dogs calmly and safely. If your dog is crate-trained or has a specific routine, I’ll follow it exactly to keep things consistent and stress-free. I pay attention to behavior, energy, and boundaries to make sure every pet feels comfortable—whether they’re social, shy, or need their own space. I also keep a clean, structured environment and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I have been an animal lover since I was a baby. I’ve had around 10 dogs and cats throughout my life. Ozzie is my doggie right now. He’s lovely and I have been his parent for the last year. If you need someone who will not only take care of your pet but understand them I’m the ideal person for you. They’ll have fun while being safe and care for. I currently work from home. I’ll have plenty of time for your loved ones. My days off are Tuesdays and Sundays, therefore those days I’m not available for boarding. Any other day feel more than welcome to contact me! I live in 16 acres of beautiful grass, nature and plenty of space for your dog. Most of it is unfenced but I also have a fenced area. I’ll take care of your pet like it was my own baby. Either here at my home or yours! I have 10yrs+ of dogs and cats experience. I’m the best at this and you’ll have peace of mind like no other sitter can give.
“Pets were well taken care of. He shared pictures (but I did not receive the written reports the sitters usually share after every visit). He helped as possible with cleaning poop/throw up my puppy left around the house. Quick to reply to my text messages.”
“So happy Jessica was available to drop in for my Golden Retriever on short notice. She fed and walked her and provided lots of photos throughout. Thanks for caring for Samantha!”
About: I have been dog sitting or walking for the last seven years. Also, I worked for a dog daycare for about 2 years. I'm experienced in giving medication and getting stubborn dogs to eat their food. I'm comfortable walking any size or breed of dog. I will be available through the summer and possibly during the school year. The daily or weekly care depends on how many pets I'm caring for at a time. Between the end of August to the beginning of May, I can sit on the weekends. I do require a meeting with owners and the dogs before I dog sit. I'm comfortable to come to my clients home to care for them. If that is taking for a walk or just spending some time with them. I have two friendly beagles that love anyone and a fenced in back yard. I do have a crate of it is need.

About: Have had dogs and cats my whole life. True animal lover who will take great care of your pet! I have also watched friends and family's pets while they were away. I am returning to my full-time job in August. I will still be available to walk after school into the early evening and then possibly some Saturday mornings. I will update my calendar. I loved doing this over the summer and I hope to continue on throughout the school year.. My cats are very spoiled and want a lot of attention. They love that I can be with them during the day. When I had dogs, I spent a lot of time walking them and also playing with them in the yard.
About: Wouldn't you rather have your dog in a dog-loving home every day instead of a commercial doggie daycare? With dog beds or couches instead of crates? I have lived with dogs most of my life and with cats for 35 years. I have fostered or rescued many animals. I can give personal attention to puppy "potty" training too! - found cat at side of road who had been shot with BBs. Took him to vet to have 33 BBs removed. Unfortunately he lost both eyes but was quickly adopted and is enjoying his life and even catching flies! - rescued little dog that was chasing a bike down a busy street. I was able to find her family and return her safely. - I found an injured bat and took him to Willowbrook for care. I love animals and I will take good care of yours! I am very comfortable with all types of animals. We spend a lot of time outdoors in our huge backyard, weather permitting. Play time is all day as I don't leave them alone but am always there to supervise. Because we also have cats, visiting dogs must be able to safely interact or ignore cats. Tiny dogs, very large dogs and everyone in between are welcome! I am available for weekly doggie daycare and boarding for my daycare clients. My schedule is very open and I am always with the dogs, supervising. To ensure their safety, they will never be left at home alone Your dogs will have the whole house to roam, just as my dogs do. They will have a fully fenced yard in which to run and beds or sofas or dog beds from which to choose for sleeping

We are so impressed with Brooke and the wonderful care she provided for our pup, Bob! She is sweet, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future. We highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets!
Alexa was wonderful and communicating how our babies were doing. She sent lots of pictures and took the time to actually love on them not just feed them and leave. Our girls really seemed to enjoy her company as well. We would definitely highly recommend Alexa’s services!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Wayne 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
