About: I’ve lived in in a household with multiple dogs and cats my whole life. Experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages/needs, including disabilities and special needs such as diabetes and paralysis. Trusted by neighbors and community members to care for dogs, cats, fish, and rabbits for 8+ years. I’d love to meet your furry family! I am a part-time student and worker, so I have plenty of time to stop by and cuddle up and go on adventures with your furry family! I am available to check in on your pet every 4 hours, and am easily able to stay at your home for 7 days plus if your furry family would love the extra company. I maintain a calm, relaxing environment for your pets, especially those who are shy and need some time to warm up. I am easily able to crate dogs of all sizes, and I create a comfortable and fun environment to to play with and cuddle all pets.
About: I’ve had experience with all different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am comfortable walking dogs, feeding, and giving medication if needed. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and feel that it is important to provide a safe and comfortable environment for them. I work part time at home through out the week with a flexible schedule, so I will be available when needed. During the summer I am available any day of the week. I am currently enrolled in college, and with the fall semester coming up I will not be available from 9am-12:30pm, with Thursdays going from 9am-3:50pm. I am willing to take on last minute pet sitting jobs, but I would prefer to know ahead of time! Pets need safe and comfortable environments. Whether out on a walk or at home, I will make sure your dog is supervised and treated with patience and kindness.

I am very flexible when it comes to routine, i would structure my schedule around what you would prefer! I am able to do weekdays and weekends! I walk my dogs in the early morning but I would able to adjust based on your personal schedule! Pets are a part of a family! I would take the best care i could to make sure they are happy and healthy throughout the time they are in my care!

I also volunteer with BARCS for their dogs day out program, so I have a lot of experience with big dogs. I currently work full time in logistics, and I work from home 3 days a week. I have free time throughout the day on my remote days and on the weekends as well. I always like to take care of animals as if they are my own.

Communication was quick and consistent, and she was always very responsive whenever I had a question or update. I felt confident leaving my pet in her care and appreciated the updates while I was away. I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to others!!!”
“We had a great experience with Yeji! She took wonderful care of our cats and followed all of our instructions perfectly, including their different feeding routines. She was reliable, communicative, and made it easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying about the cats. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I worked at South Carroll Veterinary Hospital for 3 years prior to going away to school. I’ve taken care of puppies to senior dogs, kittens to senior cats. While away at school for two years I fostered through the local humane society! I’m currently working part time at a salon but also coaching for a college volleyball team. I have free hours during the day and night so I’m very flexible with my availability! Although I’m not open to boarding dogs in my own home, I do take care of my dogs everyday. I’m used to feeding and taking care of them. Letting them out and cleaning up after them in my yard.

“Sara was AMAZING with our puppy, Cooper! She made sure he didn’t eat anything on his walks because that’s been a big issue with him. She always made sure he was taken care of and administered his medicine since he recently was discharged from the animal hospital. We can’t wait to use Sara again!”
“Lingli is very professional and punctual. She checked in on my fur babies with little notice over a busy holiday weekend. Will definitely be using her again in the future”

I highly recommend Casie to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I do not have the easiest cats. One is super shy and the other just tolerates people. Amanda did a great job with them! She patiently coaxed my shy one out and even got my standoffish one to play. She sent video snippets that showed they were happy and well taken care of. Thank you, Amanda!!”

I’m not even sure where to start, Erin was AMAZING! We had an issue with the door handle that she took care of, the dogs had a rough day and she handled it, she got my mail, and even cleaned up some dog hair! One of our pups decided to go on a hunger strike and she got him eating again by hand feeding him! I would not hesitate for a second to have her back! She was the best and I highly recommend her!
She took great care of my kitties for one week. They got used to her visits by the end of the week and came out when she came in! Maybe it was the treats she would give? 😻😻😻 Jennifer also got the mail for me while I was gone. Thank you for everything! Highly recommend!
Terry was phenomenal with our large dogs, truly treating them like his own. He provided good care, communicated us extensively, and was punctual for his visits. I couldn’t be more pleased with his service; we will absolutely ask him to care for our dogs again.

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 Woodstock 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.
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.

- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
