“Alexandra is wonderful! Our dog loves her, and is always excited to see her. Alexandra has been great at taking intros slow and working with us to get our dog used to her entering the house when we are not home. Her calm demeanor and patience are perfect for an anxious pup.”
“Catie took excellent care of our 2 cats. One of our cats has special needs with a feeding tube in place. Catie learned how to administer medications thru the feeding tube. She picked it up quickly and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. She kept us updated with daily feedback and photos. She’s trustworthy and reliable as well as being very skilled at handling challenges which can happen with finicky cats like ours. Would highly recommend to others and will use her again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 17 years. Besides raising my own dogs, I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs for stays ranging from one week to two months. My Goldendoodle loves making new dog friends, and many of our guests have become his best buddies. I work from home most of the week, so I have plenty of time to care for dogs throughout the day. They get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention, and are rarely left alone. I have fenced yard where my dog loves to play fetch. I usually let my dog out around 8am to play until 9am. All the dogs are welcome to join to play together!
About: Im here to care for the elderly dogs and disabled dogs who can’t be left home alone and need ample 1:1 attention. I have cared for many senior animals, and know how complex it can be to tend to their changing needs in their golden and twilight years. Have you been worried about leaving your dog home alone while you go out for appointments, errands and social commitments? Are you stressed and need a break from caregiving to tend to our own self care? I’ll stay with your beloved canine family member making sure they are cared for and comfortable when you need to be elsewhere. I currently have availability most days in my schedule as long as i know ahead of time! I’m happy to structure your dog’s need and routines into my own schedule. I offer drop in visits and daytime and evening dog sitting in your home. I am able to bring your dog outside to get fresh air and enjoy the outdoors in your yard. If your home has stairs and your dog needs to be carried, we will discuss safety. If your dog is able to walk I may be able to take your small dog for a short walk, or in the stroller if they use one. My animal clients are elderly and or disabled and typically stay close to home and dont walk far. Regarding feeding, I do not handle raw meat or pork products. We will work together to meet your dog’s individual needs and customize their care! Size of dog, distance, length and number of visits per day are all on a case by case basis.
“Heather was so amazing! She really saved us by accepting a short notice booking and not only giving my kitty his dinner but taking time to play with him and entice him from under the bed...lol. Thank you so much Heather. So happy to find a responsive and reliable carer for Smokey and will absolutely book with you again soon!”
“Shawn was fantastic! Will definitely book him again! He cared for my 2 cats when my family was away for 10 days. He fed them, changed the water, brushed them. Also played with them, scooped the litter and even vacuumed up the loose litter which was a nice surprise to come home to. Also, his communication was fantastic. Thanks Shawn!”
“Jacqueline is not five but six stars! She truly goes above and beyond! She’s not only reliable—sticking to our schedule perfectly for 10 days, even on Christmas, or during a snowstorm, and freezing cold—but also a sweet, pleasant person to deal with. Her excellent communication, updates, and heartwarming cat photos eased our anxiety as first-time users leaving our fur babies. She’s now “our” cat sitter. Highly recommend her! Thank you from the heart.”

“Lorenzo did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Lacey! He came over for a few hours, took her on a nice walk, played with her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the entire time. It was clear that Lacey felt at ease with him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’d absolutely recommend Lorenzo to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Harrison
Cynthia is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She is incredibly reliable, caring, and communicative throughout the entire stay. She truly went above and beyond for my dog Albert. Albert is on five different medications, and Cynthia handled his medication schedule perfectly. During a weekend heat wave, she even came back to turn on the A/C to make sure my pets stayed comfortable. Albert was so happy and relaxed when I got home, which gave me complete peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Cynthia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter.

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 West Harrison 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.
