About: I’m a devoted dog lover and stay-at-home pet caregiver with a friendly, nearly 5-year-old beagle who adores canine company. I have lots of time to cater to your dog’s needs—whether that’s plenty of cuddles, neighborhood walks, or longer hikes—and our beagle has a calm, social temperament and has never met a dog he didn’t get along with. He even helps new dogs settle in at daycare thanks to his gentle nature. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and energy levels and tailor walks and activity to each dog’s needs (short, slow strolls or more active outings). Safe, attentive care and lots of affection are guaranteed—happy to discuss routines, feeding, and any special needs your dog has. I’m currently not employed so my days are flexible. Any doggos that come to the house will be joined by our friendly beagle. Walks are completely up to your discretion. I will do whatever is easiest and the most safe for your pets. We have a crate in our house that can be used if needed. We also have a yard that is not fenced in.
About: Hi! My name is Trystan. I grew up with big dogs and currently own three cats. I have experience taking care of pets of all sizes and am excited to be best friends with yours! My current schedule gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, dependable care throughout the week. I am able to accomodate last-minute bookings, daytime visits, and consistent care routines, even on holidays! I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn pet's routines, personality, and needs as well as give them lots of affection when families are away. I also send regular updates and photos so pet parents can know their pets are safe and happy.
“Diana did a really nice job caring for our two kitties whilst we were away on vacation for two weeks. She insured they had enough food (and adjusted as needed), water, brushed our long haired Kitty, scooped the litter boxes, and played with them both. She also went above and beyond by bringing in our mail daily and also a few packages that arrived. We really appreciated Diana’s attention to detail and the wonderful daily updates she provided on Rover. It gave us peace of mind that our fur babies were in good hands and well cared for so we could enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Diana. She’s a sweetheart. Thanks so much, Diana!”
“Jacqueline was very professional and asked to come to a meet and greet the day before a sitting session Shadow felt at ease and warmed up to her very quickly. I will be reaching out to her again.”
“Meghan took great care of Dakota while we were away for a few hours. She gave her lots of frisbee time, and breaks and water to cool her off because it was a hot day. She is very caring and a true dog person. :-) Dakota was so relaxed and happy when we arrived home. We found Meghan at the last minute and are so grateful that she was available. Such a relief. We highly recommend her.”

“Julia has a kind, gentle and fun way with animals. She has worked with a wide variety of animals. Prior to her initial visit, Julia was easy to communicate with regarding my wishes and concerns. During her visit with my 4 year old Portuguese Water Dog, she exceeded my expectations. She has a great attention to details. My dog was all smiles in the pics from her visit and seemed less needy than usual for my attention when I returned home from work that day. I have booked Julia for regular future visits and would highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

I am available everyday of the week, and would just need 24 hours to do any pick up or drop off.

About: Hello! My name is Andie and I work at VCA South Shore Hospital in ER, ICU, Neurology and Internal Medicine as a technician assistant and have prior TA experience at Old Derby Animal Hospital. I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. I previously went to the University of Arizona for 3 years studying animal sciences and transferred my junior year to return to the East Coast. I also have some experience with a handful of farm animals from my time at the UofA. Additionally some of my experience comes from working on home farms taking care of horses and alpacas; all of this meaning my knowledge of animals is extensive to give the best care for your furry friends! I have always had the passion for animal care and medicine which is why after graduating I will be continuing my schooling to be a CVT and hopefully someday a veterinarian. A few years back I had participated in boarding through Rover, but after a hiatus I decided to come back to continue with walks and drop in visits because even outside of my main job I love to be around animals! We have a small family dog, but other than that I have rescue retired racing greyhound, Moose, who has travelled far and wide with me. My pets also include many fish, a leopard gecko, chickens and ducks! All this being said, I would absolutely love the opportunity to be alongside your best friends and scratch the itch to spend as much time with animals as I can! I am available Tues-Fri after 4:00 and free Sat, Sun and Mon! I am currently working full time at VCA Animal Hospital where I can do drop in visits before and after work depending on location, Sat, Sun and Mon can be anytime. I can also do any walks after 4:00 Tues-Fri and anytime on weekends. I take care of your pets like they are my own. I think every one has their own needs and personality, there is no "one size fits all" for any animal. I try to learn your pet on an individual level!
“I trust her with my dog and two kitties - that says it all! I can see in all the photos she sends that they love to see her when she cares for them! She even made sure to clean up messes the kitties made on the rug while I was traveling. Her honest and timely communication is very appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Currently in my house, we have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I help take care of. I have been on Rover for about 6 years. I am an elementary teacher and high school girls basketball coach. I am currently on summer break since I am an elementary teacher. This means that I have a lot of free time because I am not working anywhere else. I am a very active person, so I love playing with all dogs and taking them on nice, long walks. I have also been around dogs and cats my whole life, so I love spending time with all animals.

We reach out to Adriana first whenever we need intermittent/drop in visits for our sweet 15 year old dog. She's used to us home with her most of the time, and when we need to leave her for longer than she's used to, Adriana gives us great peace of mind by dropping in. She's always terrific with communication and dependability. Thoroughly recommend!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Whitman 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 Whitman 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. 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.
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 Whitman with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
