“Kendra took such amazing care of our two dogs while we were on vacation! She was super patient and sweet with one of my dogs that has bad anxiety and takes long to get comfortable with. She even went out of her way to make her scrambled eggs just so she would eat while we were gone! We loved seeing the updates and pictures she would send us daily. We 100% recommend and plan to use her for future stays!”
“I highly recommend!!! This was my first time and a last minute thing. Katie replied instantly and was able to take care of my dog. I loved how we communicate throughout the whole two days. She would send pictures and tell me how my dog Lianie was doing. Look no more and contact her to sit your fur baby.”
“We can’t say enough about how happy and pleased we were with Saphire. She was always really quick to respond when we text on our trip and sent us pics. We have a high energy fur baby. We felt he was safe and in good hands. Saphire was a referral from one of my clients. Would totally recommend and use again♥️”
“Melissa showed great care for our fur baby Valentino. She ensured he was engaged and even purchased toys for him to play with while under her care. She kept in regular contact with us and shared lots of photos to put us at ease. I absolutely recommend Melissa for your pet care needs.”
“We had to leave our Tillie girl for 10 days but she was so well taken care of and loved by Andrea and her husband! They took her on walks, to the park several times, and Tillie made new friends with Posie and Winston! We had a couple of snafus with our travel plans as well but Andrea and her husband were flexible and so great!!! Definitely will be leaving our Tillie girl with them next time we travel!!!”
About: I’ve had many dogs throughout my childhood and I just love how they are. I have had experiences with many dogs throughout my life. They’re so cute I love them all. I currently don’t have a job right now but I am looking for one. I start my day early so I have free time! I only have one dog now. Her name is Luna, she’s been my baby since she was literally a baby. She knows when to go outside to use the restroom, as well as some tricks I taught her, she also loves when I pet her…sometimes when she wants me too lol, still love her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Orange home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your West Orange.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your West Orange sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
