About: I grew up on a farm and have raised puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my elder dog, so I’m happy to spend time with yours. Looking forward to spending time, walking and playing with your dog, cat, kitten or puppy. I work part time so I’m very flexible and active! I am available to stay with your pet, and give them exercise and lots of attention needed to keep them happy! I am familiar with picky eaters and administering medication if needed.
About: I have had dogs my whole life! I have been professionally caring for animals for 5 years now! I am a pre veterinary student at URI. I am available every day of the week.

And of course I will treat your homes and pets with care.
About: Grew up with a senior dog as well as sitting for all of my neighbors. Experience with all equipment (harnesses, leaders, muzzles, etc.) Available 24/7 for whatever care you need, want to make everyone happy and comfortable! :) I just graduated from Fordham in May and am fully remote for my internship this summer, so I am around all the time for whatever needs you and your family might have! When house sitting, I can stay in your home full-time if necessary to keep your dog's routine as normal as possible. I follow your feeding schedule, walk schedule, and any specific instructions you leave, I believe consistency is key to keeping dogs calm and comfortable while you're away. I'm attentive to your dog's behavior and energy levels throughout the day, and I make sure they're getting enough activity, stimulation, and rest. I'm comfortable with all walking equipment including harnesses, gentle leaders, and muzzles, and always keep dogs secure on leash. I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for my own. I send regular photo updates throughout the stay so you're never left wondering how your pup is doing. I'm happy to accommodate any special needs, medications, dietary restrictions, or quirks — just let me know what your dog needs and I'll make it happen.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown. I have raised and taken care of cats, dogs (from puppies to senior pets), and guinea pigs as well. I am currently a college student, so when I am not in class I will be able to watch and take care of your pets, and can house sit on weekends if needed. when I am house sitting, I care for your pet as if they are my own, and any household rules will be followed as if you never left.
About: I’m studying to become a veterinarian and currently work at an animal hospital, so caring for pets is a big part of my everyday life. I have a huge heart for dogs and take their health and well-being very seriously, while still making sure they get plenty of love, play, and snuggles. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior who needs gentler care, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m currently in school, but my classes are very manageable and I don’t have a packed schedule, which leaves me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I also have my own cat who lives with me on campus, so caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine. Since I don’t have many other commitments while I’m at school, I’m able to give pets the attention and consistency they need. I follow each pet’s routine closely, whether I’m at their home or mine. I make sure they get meals, walks or playtime, and any medications they need, plus plenty of attention and affection so they feel safe and happy while you’re away.
About: I have been a lifelong animal lover, growing up with both dogs and cats and continuing to adopt and care for them throughout my adult life. Caring for animals has always been a natural and joyful part of my home. I have experience with daily routines, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, and providing consistent companionship. I also had a beloved lovebird growing up, which gave me experience tending to smaller pets with gentleness and attention. What sets me apart is my patience, kindness, and genuine heart for animals. While I do not have formal training experience, I am consistent, attentive, and willing to reinforce basic training practices with calm encouragement. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with safety, affection, and respect at the center of their care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available most weekdays, especially during school hours, which allows me to provide dependable daytime walks, check-ins, feedings, and companionship. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and routine. In a client’s home, I maintain their regular schedule for feedings, walks, playtime, and any special care, while keeping the home tidy and respected. If in a client's home, I am willing to water plants, bring in mail, and assist with regular maintenance care. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe space with close supervision, consistency, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to help pets feel secure, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

I provide feeding, walks, drop in visits, playtime, enrichment, and medication administration with patience and care.

I’ve cared for dogs ranging from pugs to Bernese Mountain Dogs, as well as young cats, senior cats, and foster cats preparing for their forever homes. What sets me apart is my calm, structured, and dependable approach. I understand how important routines are for pets and work hard to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also clean, tidy, respectful in clients’ homes, and committed to providing trustworthy care you can rely on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining consistent care schedules. I am a teacher with the summers off. I prioritize reliability, communication, and routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m flexible with walks, drop ins, and feeding schedules. I make sure each pet gets individual attention, exercise, affection, and care based on their specific needs and energy level. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency when caring for pets in a client’s home. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, walking routines, and any household rules to keep pets comfortable.

“Erika could not have been better - excellent and immediate communication - extremely professional! The real thing that stood out was the pictures she sent me which were numerous, but it was obvious that my kitty was having fun! That’s rare because I’ve had Rover sitters where my cat would hide the whole time. That’s a quality that’s tough to quantify in a review but Erika is a real animal person and that’s something our furry friends can pick up on instinctually! Erika is the real deal!!”

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.
