About: I have taken care of pets from friends and family since I was 10 years old. Overtime, I have developed an ability to make dogs and cats feel at home and welcomed through proper time and attention, the key for anyone and any animal to feel loved. Changing wet pads, showering and bathing pets, running and playing with dogs, and cuddling with animals are second nature to me and I have years of experience doing each. Currently, I am working full time 9am-5pm during the weekdays. Outside of those hours, having the pet come with me on outdoor activities when weather allows and staying inside to lounge around are common. I usually see it as an excuse to keep active during my sedentary office lifestyle. Time in = trust out. Building trust and making your pet feel safe and sound is one of my main priorities. In order for that bond to exist, consistent attention and care is needed. From proper feeding, regular walking, and rigorous playing, pets in my care will return back to you in good spirits.

About: What differentiates me is the love and patience I give to each pet. I have experience with puppies and older dogs that need special care and shy rescue puppies. I treat each pet as if it were mine and always keep the owners informed with photos and messages. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I enjoy spending time with animals in the mornings and evenings, and I always make sure pets receive walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I can adjust to the needs of each pet and provide reliable, loving care whenever it’s needed. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets always have a clean and cozy space, fresh water, and regular walks or playtime. I make sure the environment is safe, secure, and free of hazards. In a client’s home, I follow their routines carefully, respect their rules, and provide regular updates with photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are happy and cared for

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with several years of experience both pet sitting and working in an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant. Through my work, I’ve gained hands-on experience handling dogs and cats of all temperaments, supporting their care, and becoming familiar with recognizing when something may be off. At the same time, my approach to pet sitting is always centered around making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their home environment. I’m also a pet owner to my 11-year-old girl, so I know firsthand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly routine. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, so I am already around animals regularly and used to maintaining consistent care schedules. Outside of work, I plan my availability around pet sitting bookings to ensure I can give each pet the time and attention they need. This includes morning and evening visits, walks, feeding schedules, and check-ins depending on the pet’s routine. Because I’m also a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already built into my daily life. I’m used to early mornings, structured feeding times, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I’m very intentional about only accepting bookings I can fully commit to, so each pet receives reliable, attentive care. When I arrive, I follow all instructions exactly as provided to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and that litter boxes or walking needs are taken care of promptly. During each visit, I also spend time engaging with your pet based on their personality—whether that’s playtime, companionship, or giving them space if they are more independent. I keep your home clean, organized, and secure while I’m there, and I always double-check doors, gates, and any safety instructions before leaving. I also provide updates so you can feel confident knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I am a pet rescue expert who has always had a soft spot for animals.I've volunteered for numerous animal shelters and fostered for rescue groups. My love for animals started at a young age where I found myself aiding neglected animals of all types. I've saved dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, roadants, you name it! I quickly became the “go-to” girl for animals in need. Needless to say, your pet will be in great hands as I take my responsibility of any animal serious. I am experienced with all breeds and sizes. I have a big boy of my own. A 90 lb Blue Nose Pitbull named Prince.

About: I usually work with shy, aggressive or fearful dogs or cats. It can take weeks, months or years to befriend them but when you do it's extremely rewarding, especially when an animal someone deems "dangerous" comes out to be the biggest sweetheart. I have tons of patience and I believe every species of animal deserves love and respect. As humans, it's our duty to be the voices and guardians of the animals in our care. They look to us for comfort, guidance, love and peace. That's why I do anything in my power to donate or volunteer at animal shelters because every animal should know that there's humans out there that actually care about their well being. Working with animals is a great career for me. Update; 8/2020 I’ve been volunteering and working with pets as a professional pet care provider for five years now. Through my journey I’ve learned pet CPR and gained dog training knowledge through Poochpals llc as well as worked as a dog handler at walterspetstyles. I’m currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer and furthering my knowledge on Pet care. At Poochpals we believe in being a friend for life so I’m definitely bringing our motto into the field and looking to become a furever friend for your pets. If you’re ever in need of an actual PROFESSIONAL pet care provider, look no further! I also have basic training knowledge so don’t be surprised if your pup or cat comes back knowing a few new tricks 😂 I have open availability Monday-Sunday. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! My dog, Odin, loves to make new friends of all species. Updates:4/7/2026 Hello friends! I would not be at 29 Hanford anymore due to instability, so I’m moving my business down to NYC before heading to PA. We have multiple fences in house and around the property. Pups are also supervised 24/7 and we have a designated dog room just for them. Back porch is also secured with gates. Dogs aren’t allowed on the lawn without human supervision and a 20ft leash. Lawn is fenced. We have strict safety procedures when it comes down to pets and children.

About: I’ve worked at the Brooklyn zoo and aquarium in Brooklyn as a teen. Then worked my way to volunteering at my local animal shelter. I’ve always had a love for animals. Now I foster dogs and cats till they find their forever homes. Even family and friends ask me to watch their pets on occasion. I’ve done dog walking and boarding for many years now as well and I would love to continue to provide for animals rain or shine. I currently work from home so the most I leave for are some social events here and there or groceries. I have transportation if pick up and drop off is needs as well. I have a gated yard around my apartment. There grass and all the other animals in the building run around and use the property. I provide at least three walks/potty breaks a day, take time to train and reward. I’ve giving medication and baths on request as well.

About: I have had always had dogs in my life. I have helped care for them for as long as I can remember. I know how much care they require and want to give your dogs the best possible experience while you are away. I am currently enrolled in summer school and would be able to attend to pets outside of the hours of 11:00 am to 3:15 pm during weekdays. My weekends are open for pet care as well. Caring for pets not only involves meeting the basics needs of the pet: food, water, physical exercise, etc., but it also involves treating them with respect and love. They have emotional needs that must be met with attention and letting them know that you are present, as they are likely spending more time alone than they usually would.

About: Being a caretaker and guardian for children & animals since I was 15 years old, allows a balance from nurture, knowledge to play that makes those I look after, feel loved. Additionally, I completed a two-year veterinary assistant certification program and held continuous care for small and large animals on a daily basis. I studied breeds and behavioral components of each, including appropriate ways to approach visible moods in dogs and cats. I also assisted our in-house Veterinarian with administering medication and procedures. Personally, I’ve loved animals all my life and started out by babysitting a few of my neighbors children and pets, and kept my elderly neighbor company and checked in on her since her son lived far and I noticed she was alone most times. I always believed animals are like small children who could never grow up to speak and advocate for themselves, which is why they need just a little more attention, awareness, understanding and anticipation of their needs. Quality of life and joy is supplemented by play, as similar to children, the more joy and engagement for their minds and activity is crucial to their life longevity and overall health. I’m currently only attending school at the moment, (Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings) otherwise have more availability and flexibility than most. I find joy in playtime with both animals and children and feel it is crucial to their comfort and happiness, especially while their parents are away. I make sure to regularly review the instructions, prioritizing any medication they may have, as well as strict time frames their parents prefer any form of activities, such as going outside or bedtime. Other than that, it is my culture and belief since I was young, being a Girl Scout at a young age and navigating, those beliefs as an adult still: taking the upmost care of the space and things around you, this means often times leaving places better than I find it. I care for things as if they are my own as well as loved ones, as if they were my own family members (because that’s how I would want mine to be treated as well)

I was really nervous to leave my cats with a sitter, but Mark makes everything so wonderful. I've had 4 other people cat-sit in the past and there's nobody I trust more than Mark. I will go to him over having some friends watch over them, because of how much peace of mind he gives me. He is extremely thoughtful and thorough with the way he takes care of my two kitties. They love him so much, and I can be at ease when I know he's there when I'm away. He goes above and beyond to spend time with them, take care of the house, and reassure me while away with his in-depth check-ins. Thank you, Mark :)

Briana was so great!! I had a last minute family emergency come up and needed a sitter desperately for my cat and not only did she agree to take care of my cat last minute but she came to my place the same day I reached out to her before I had to leave for my flight to do a meet and greet. My cat instantly liked her energy and let her pet him/greet him. She responded quickly from the beginning all the way to the end of the visit and was also a great communicator. She went above and beyond for my cat by cleaning/refilling his bowls every day, cleaning his litter box, giving him pets/affection and sending me photos as well for my own reassurance! This was my first time leaving my cat with a stranger and I couldn’t be happier with how she handled everything! I would highly recommend her for anyone’s little fur baby!

I cannot thank Nicole enough for the extraordinary care she gave my senior cat, Ralph. Ralph can be quite fractious and relies on precise daily medication. Nicole went above and beyond: she worked with us for over a month before my trip to get accustomed to Ralph's temperament and help prep the apartment for safe dosing. Because of her thorough preparation, she was able to handle Ralph’s medication with 100% confidence while I was away. She was super communicative throughout.

I found out my cat had an ear infection 1 day before a 10 day international trip. I usually have my neighbor watch her, but the vet wanted me to wipe a scratch near her ear once a day and administer ear drops in her ear twice a day so I knew I needed more help. Natalia responded almost immediately to my request and she was at my apartment meeting my cat within 24hrs! She was communicative, kind, and best of all was able to wipe her scratch AND get ear drops into her ear (she’s very wriggly so this was impressive!). I was so grateful for peace of mind so last minute! She’s the best of the best!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
