“Marisa was fantastic, especially helping out on Easter! She fed dinner, spent quality time playing outside, and sent photos and videos that showed just how happy and relaxed our goldendoodle was. She was prompt, stayed for the full visit, and clearly put care and attention into every detail. We also really appreciated the meet-and-greet beforehand—it made the whole experience even more comfortable. Highly recommend her!”
“We are returning clients - cannot say enough good about these two. They are on time and thorough. They also pay attention to detail around our home, which is a god send when you’re away for a week! Will always return, Otis loves them!”
“Jacob was extremely detailed and asked questions I hadn’t thought of in order to make sure my girl had the most positive experience! I am extremely pleased with Jacob’s work.”
“Hannah was great! She’s super nice and did a good job at letting my dog who is skeptical of new people get comfortable with her. I’d definitely work with her again!”
About: I grew up with at least 2 pets in my parents’ house at all times, whether it be dogs (currently a corgi and a pit bull as seen in my profile images) or cats, so I have accumulated a lot of pet care experience in my lifetime just from helping out while my parents worked. Additionally, I have done dog-walking and dog-sitting before for dogs of a variety of breeds and sizes! My extended family, friends, and neighbors have always trusted me as a reliable caregiver for any and all pets. I will keep a loving and safe environment for your pets, making sure they have the best time and showing them love as if they were my own! I hope you consider booking with me! :) I’m currently a full-time college student, but my schedules this semester are blocked out so that I have a lot of time between classes in the week for pet care! I live in a residential apartment in a private college campus, there is a lot of open grass and space for dogs to run around, and walking paths throughout campus great for walks!
About: I grew up with dogs. When I was 18 I co-adopted two pitbulls who lived out their lives with me. After college, I volunteered for Monster Milers taking shelter dogs from Street Tails Animal Rescue out for runs to help them burn energy and become more adoptable. My wife and I have adopted three times. A fawn pug who lived until 9 years old, a black pug who lived until 17 years old, and a Alaskan Malamute/Husky/Amstaff mix (107lbs) that lived until he was 13 and we recently lost. I'm good with all furry friends big and small and adjust my approach based on the dogs energy. I currently have a ton of flexibility outside of my kids to help with your pups, but generally, I'm home a lot and very active so lots of room to get your pup out for long walks and exercise/stimulation. I do not have a fenced in yard, and always keep my dogs on leashes until they were absolutely ready to listen solely to my commands. I use a gentle leader that helps minimize impact on their throat and also is very effective with pulling, but can be flexible to your sitch.
“Outstanding. Bree was always on time and did a great job. Her communication skills are great and she showed lots of love to our dogs. Highly recommended.”
About: I spent 2 years volunteering at a dog shelter, while doing so I received training on dog handling at different behavior levels. I also professionally walked dogs with a small business for 2 years. I had many clients that I would walk for daily! Pet care fits well into my schedule because I work afternoon and nights, which leaves my mornings open. I’m looking to make the most of my time by helping pet owners with walks, drop ins, and quality care. I treat every clients home with the same respect I would my own. When meeting a new pup, I always take a slow, calm approach to let them get comfortable at their own pace and build trust. I always follow all care instructions. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for!
About: At home I have a massive 110lb golden retriever and two very fluffy cats. I take pride in learning each animal’s special personality and how best to communicate. From training our crazy dog to rehabilitating a highly anxious rescue cat, I know how to get creative! I have lots of experience giving medications to pets, if needed 🐱🐶 I currently work full-time M-F and am available to drop in on kitties before 9am or in the evenings after 4:30pm. I have the flexibility to provide overnights and additional time, if needed. Daily litter scooping, fresh food and water, and play time, pets, or snuggles will be given at every visit! Your cats thrive on routine and stimulation and this will minimize any separation anxiety they may have!
“Roxanne took wonderful care of our 14-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - both for recent drop-ins and also while we were away for a week this past summer. At his age, with some health issues and being nearly deaf, he is a bit fragile, but Roxanne handles everything like a pro. She is on top of his medication routine and seems very perceptive and flexible to what he needed at different times (snuggles, sleeping, playing, etc). She sends updates and photos, which gives us so much peace of mind. Everytime she takes care of him, we come home to a happy pup who clearly feels safe and comfortable with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Rachael was exceptional in taking care of my pup Gouda. I knew upon our meet and greet that my boy would be in food hands but each visit she continued to go above and beyond. (Ie. toweling him off after a rainy walk). I was able to enjoy family time not worrying my dog would be lonely. She gave him tons of love and care. Will definitely use again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Aaren was great with my cat! I was worried about leaving him during my trip because I don't leave him very often, but Aaren reassured me that he would be in good hands. The updates and photos were much appreciated. My boy looked so happy and warmed up to Aaren very quickly (he is usually very independent). Would book with her again!”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors for years, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I also have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to care for your pets while you are away. I have experience with pets of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities, including shy pets, high-energy dogs, and senior animals. I am organized, reliable, and communicative, and I always prioritize following each pet owner’s instructions closely. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout visits and stays. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting Sundays after 3 PM, all day Mondays and Tuesdays, and Wednesdays until the evening. I can also be flexible if last-minute changes are needed. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, medications, walk routines, crate instructions, and any behavioral or safety considerations. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away, so I always try to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I also provide regular communication, updates, and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am respectful, clean, dependable, and focused on creating a calm and safe environment for your pet.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love spending time with animals. I’ll treat your pup with care, attention, and plenty of love. I love taking care of animals! I currently work full time , but I have plenty available throughout the week and on weekends anywhere between 5am-10pm, or other hours upon request. I have years of experience with caring for dogs and cats, and can easily adapt to different feeding/walking/medication schedules depending on the needs of your pet!
About: I have always had a dog in my house, even now. I know it's hard to leave your dogs when heading away. I hope that I can help! I can give medication, take your dog for walks during the evening and weekends and can provide extra love when you are not around. I have had experience with dogs who are not dog friendly with others, so I am able to handle dogs that might not get along, but that doesn't mean the can't have fun throwing the ball or go for walks (I've learned where to find the walks where other dogs won't be). Any other questions, please feel free to reach out! I’m available on weekends for walks or boarding. During the week, I am available after 4pm for walks and feedings until you get home from work. We have a fenced in yard and dogs are welcome on couches and beds, in this house! I also have a 3 year old son who might be a bigger dog lover than we are, to offer additional affection!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and hands on experience with both dogs and cats. As a pet parent to one dog and three cats, some with health issues, I’ve learned how to give medication, manage special diets, and provide calm, attentive care. I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so thank you for trusting me to be there for them and give them the love and comfort they need while you’re gone! I am available Monday through Friday 9am to 5 pm anytime. If other days are needed don’t he’s to ask as I might have availability on the weekends as well! I live on the end of a cul-de-sac with no main road so I am able to allow your fur babies to run around in my backyard without any danger
About: Hi, I'm Jen! I've been caring for all different types of animals all my life and I would love the opportunity to spend some time with your pet! I currently own a horse and a cat. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule that allows walks or playtime throughout the day. I've been caring for and walking dogs professionally for 7 years. I have experience with all different sizes, ages and temperaments. I have a wide range of knowledge on different types of harnesses and how to handle any stressful situations that may arise during our time together. In case of emergency, I have a car and will always be able to get your pet to their vet or nearby animal hospital. I am also able to provide any type of medication your pet may need. I love to provide photo updates to the owner during my walks/visits. Because of the many years of experience I've had with horses, I believe I am well equipped to care for a variety of animals. I hope you'll trust me to care for your pet like my own. I work from home and am able to provide walks/playtime throughout the day. I have a car so I can travel to you or bring your dog to a park or walk on a path. Whatever you are comfortable with. I live in a nice community where I am able to take dogs on long safe walks.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wayne
Julie took wonderful care of my two dogs while I was away. She was caring, attentive, and treated them as if they were her own. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She kept me updated, made sure all of their needs were met, and gave them plenty of love and attention. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs. I highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter.
Joanna was terrific! Our dog immediately took to her and Joanna was kind and thoughtful. Joanna was especially attentive to our dog’s stomach sensitivities and followed our vet’s instructions. She kept us informed with regular reports and sent us daily pictures and videos so we could see that Dexter was doing well. She relieved our anxiety of being away and made us feel comfortable and reassured that Dexter was being well taken care of. We highly recommend Joanna and would gladly hire her again.
Marisa was fantastic, especially helping out on Easter! She fed dinner, spent quality time playing outside, and sent photos and videos that showed just how happy and relaxed our goldendoodle was. She was prompt, stayed for the full visit, and clearly put care and attention into every detail. We also really appreciated the meet-and-greet beforehand—it made the whole experience even more comfortable. Highly recommend her!
Laura was absolutely wonderful! She was super communicative, and made the entire experience seamless. She sent photos during the visit, took my dog on a nice walk, and was incredibly kind and friendly throughout. It gave me great peace of mind knowing everything was handled so well. Fantastic experience, I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! 🐾

Ashley has always been reliable and great during her drop-in visits. She communicates clearly, arrives when she says she will, and makes sure our dog is taken care of.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Wayne stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
To find sitters in Wayne with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
