About: I’ve had animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve primarily cared for small and medium-sized dogs, but I’ve also had experience with larger dogs, including my roommate's two who were very cautious and selective about who they trusted. Somehow, they quickly decided I was one of their people! My family and friends also regularly trust me with their furry family members and often come to me for advice. I currently have a cat of my own who requires medication and has some behavioral quirks, so I’m comfortable with the extra patience, consistency, and attention that pets with special needs may require. I’ve always been the person animals seem to gravitate toward wherever I go. My mom has jokingly called me the “cat whisperer” for years, especially! I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their humans are away. I am self-employed and make my own schedule - I am very flexible so I am able to work from virtually anywhere and at any time, so fitting in any set care is very easy! I always want to make sure I earn the trust, respect, and love of the pets by being gentle, caring, and loving and showing them they can trust me. This often looks like some extra cuddles, a treat, some play time during quick drop-ins etc! There's nothing better than earning a fur baby's trust :)
“Abigail is a superstar sitter. She’s very dependable and Apollo has become very comfortable with her. Whenever we are headed out of town and we need a sitter, Abigail is our first choice. Highly recommended.”
About: I bring 12 years of cat experience to the table, which means I understand everything from litter box politics to the fine art of being ignored. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all personalities, shy, spicy, clingy, or aloof, and I know how to keep their routine calm and predictable. I also have 5 years of experience helping with dogs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and basic care. Cats may be my specialty, but I’m happy to care for dogs and make sure they’re safe, exercised, and well looked after. What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience and attention to detail. I respect boundaries, follow instructions closely, and focus on making pets feel secure in their own space. I take pet care seriously, while still enjoying every minute of it. During weekdays, I’m available from 3:30 PM to 3:30 AM, allowing for evening and overnight care. On weekends and holidays, I’m available all day, offering flexible and reliable pet care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow care instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, respect routines, and provide attentive, reliable care in your home or mine.
“Mackenzie was amazing! She gave our pups some extra love and truly treated them like they were her own. She is very kind and makes an effort to go above and beyond! We were very grateful for her to watch our doggos. Will definitely book her again!!!”
About: I’m currently a veterinarian assistant who has a Great Pyrenees, German Shepherd, Tortishell Kitty, and a cute little bearded dragon. I’m experienced with administering medications and basic grooming. I’m a firm believer that all fur and furless babies deserve love and respect and I treat them all like my very own. I am a full time Veterinarian Assistant during weekdays, but I can still swing by and say hi to the little babies. I can board or home visit anytime during the weekends! I have a fenced in yard and a sweet German Shepherd who LOVES playing with pups and is extremely gentle with kitties. I also have the ability to keep pups or cats that might not be too happy with another dog in a separate area. I enjoy recording most of my interactions with fur babies and sending the videos to you!
About: I love everything about animals! When it comes to Cats and Dogs they are such great companions and I truly enjoy seeing an animal that is pleased and satisfied with my care, as well as their owners and I will do everything to make sure that happens, I have had professional experience working for a doggie daycare business. I of course am a pet owner myself and know what its like to have to trust someone else to take care of your beautiful pet. I very much value that trust and and take the time to learn different tricks and techniques to provide the best care possible for any type of dog or cat that I could possibly encounter on a day to day basis. I am sure that I can provide a valuable service to you. I work Part-Time, and I keep a flexible schedule so I will have no issue fitting any commitments into my calendar and I always maintain clear communication. Based on discussions with the client I will give as much attention to the animal as possible during service including playing with or without toys, walks, bathroom breaks, Feeding, Cuddles etc. based on the desire of the animal.
“Samantha did excellent! On top of it. She's detail oriented and wants to do a nice job. Stayed the full-time and didn't cut out early. Enjoyed playing with the cats during the extra time. Left the house clean. She really did great !”
“Eleanor was great. Constantly kept me informed and updated on any concerns or issues. Would definitely recommend her services to a friend, and look forward to her services in the future.”
“Ladies and gentleman, when I say that this you g lady is dependable, I mean “can you please drop everything because my baby hasn’t eaten in 5 hours” type of panic. She drop across town to stepped up to the plate which calmed my soul. Us pet parents are extra sensitive when we are out of town, she never complained or said no. Sweet and dependable and TRUSTWORTHY!!! Emphasis on TRUSTWORTHY! If you are looking for peace of mind, Jasmine is the right and only choice! I will be seeking her services again.”

I’ve always helped care for family and friends’ dogs and genuinely enjoy giving them the love, attention, exercise, and the care they need!

About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 3 cats and have been helping take care of animals my whole life, so being around animals has always been a big part of who I am. I know how much our fur babies mean to us—they’re family! I love getting to know each pet’s personality and figuring out what makes them feel happy, comfortable, and safe. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful, energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I also have experience with reactive dogs and understand how important it is to be patient, stay calm, respect their boundaries, and pay attention to their body language. I also have experience as a Veterinary Assistant at an emergency veterinary clinic, which has given me a lot of hands-on experience caring for animals and handling different situations. I’m comfortable giving medications and injections when needed and when provided with instructions. Most importantly, I know that every pet is different. Some want to run around and play, some want all the cuddles they can get, and others are happiest doing their own thing with someone nearby. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and give them the kind of care and attention that works best for them. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your fur baby is being well loved and looked after while you’re away. I’m currently in a transition period, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have open availability throughout the day and into the evening, including weekends, and can be flexible to work around your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep a consistent routine, and make sure your pet is secure and comfortable in their environment. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and other potential safety concerns, and I’ll keep your home clean and tidy during visits or stays. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away.
“So great with Ava, my pup.

“Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wendell
We couldn't be happier with the care our Sophia provided for our three dogs during our vacation! We have one energetic puppy and two senior dogs, all with very different needs, and they were all cared for with so much patience, love and compassion She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious our dogs were comfortable, well cared for, and getting lots of affection while we were away. Coming home to three happy, relaxed pups meant everything to us. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive. We will definitely be booking with ther again!

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 Wendell 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 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 .
