About: I’ve taken care of dogs at age 9. I’m experienced with small and large dogs. Love to play around with them and run around with them! I’m an experienced dog walker! I currently have a flexible schedule, so I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your dog. I prefer midday walks, but I’m also available for morning if that works better for your pet’s routine. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s schedule and make sure they get the care, exercise, and attention they need. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I have experience caring for both large adult dogs and young puppies. With larger dogs, I let them safely burn off energy in a fenced yard when available, take them on long walks, and make sure they’re fed on their regular schedule with the correct amount of food and fresh water provided by the owner. With puppies and smaller dogs, I take them on walks, allow them time to rest before and after meals, and keep them entertained with toys and playtime. When the weather is nice and a long leash is provided, I enjoy taking them to a park where they can safely explore, exercise, and have fun. I always follow each owner’s instructions, respect their home’s routine, and make sure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and loving care.

I’m also available on weekends and can easily adjust my schedule to meet each client’s specific needs. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight care, I make sure every pet receives attentive and reliable care while their owners are away. In my home, pets are welcomed into a safe, comfortable, and animal-friendly environment. We’re a household that loves animals — with cats, birds, and dogs already part of the family — so visiting pets quickly feel right at home. I have a secure backyard that provides plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always maintain a consistent routine, ensure a clean and safe environment, and give each pet the individual attention and affection they deserve.

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 Yonkers 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.

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.
