“Iliana was pleasant, polite and dependable. My dogs were comfortable with her, so they were able to eat while I was away. (They don't always eat well when I need to leave.) Iliana was also kind enough to put a package that was delivered early, while I was away, in the house for me. :-)”

About: I really just have a love for dogs that is unmatched. And my dog Dodger will love to have a new friend. He is amazing with other dogs and loves to play all day. I work Monday through Friday, but my dog always has free roam of the house and yours will too. I spend time playing with my dog everyday around 11am so your dog will have all the attention needed. Your dogs will be welcomed and treated like my own with free range of the backyard and home. We will go on early morning walk daily.
About: I spoil every animal I meet! I’ve always been the “go-to person” that friends and family call when they need someone to watch their pets, take them for a walk, or give them some extra love and attention. Animals seem to naturally gravitate toward me, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve cared for dogs for both day and overnight stays, taken them on walks, given baths, and even done a little grooming when needed. I’ve always wanted to work with animals, and that love has never changed. I’m the person who will stop to help a lost animal on the street because I genuinely care. I’d be honored to give your pet the same care, attention, and love I’d want for my own. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my daily schedule is very flexible and allows me plenty of time to care for pets. I’m able to work pet care into my routine throughout the day, including walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention and companionship. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to give pets consistent care and make sure they aren’t left alone for long periods of time. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I have a gentle giant of a dog who absolutely loves everyone and everything, so I’m very comfortable caring for big dogs and all kinds of personalities. I also have a bearded dragon who is truly the queen of the house, so I understand that pets can have very different routines and care needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, and lots of love. I’m also happy to follow specific instructions from pet parents because I know every pet has their own routine and preferences. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while under my care.
About: Taking care of pets is my favorite kind of happy! Whether it’s tossing a ball, scooping some snacks, or curling up for cuddle time, I’m all in. I’ve looked after playful pups, curious kitties, and even the occasional sassy senior pet — and each one steals a little piece of my heart. I always follow their routines to keep things cozy and familiar, and I never miss a chance to give extra belly rubs or ear scratches. Your pet’s happiness is my top priority — and I make sure they feel like the star of the show while you’re away! 🐾🩷 As a college student and athlete, dogs and cats are so fun to be around. I will always find a way to put animals first into my schedule, as i love animals! I would provide the safest and most comfortable home for the kitties and puppies! As well as going into someone’s home have complete communication with the owners!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been a huge animal lover. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’m very active and love going on walks, playing outside, and keeping dogs entertained, but I’m just as happy giving lots of cuddles and attention to a pup who prefers to relax. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care depending on your needs. I love being active, so daily walks and outdoor play fit naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to accommodate your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs or preferences. I know every dog has their own personality, so I’m patient about letting them get comfortable with me at their own pace. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, they’ll get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervision. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for. 🐾
About: As a child I would pet sit and walk the neighbors’ dogs. I’ve always had pets at home to take care of as well. I have a special connection to all animals, I promise to take care of your fur babies as if they are my own! I work a 9-5 as a barber but have time before work and after work as well as on my weekends which is Sunday and Monday. I have a fenced yard and 3 very friendly dogs that love to play but also love a good nap. I will make sure your pets get daily exercise, play time, fresh water and food as well as treats for being good boys/girls.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Yuma
Melissa was wonderful! She came over ahead of time for a meet and greet, and our generally nervous, high-anxiety Golden Retriever immediately took to her. She kept us updated throughout her stay with detailed report cards and lots of sweet pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We’re so thankful to have found someone we trust completely with our girl. Melissa is so kind, caring, and dependable. Absolutely recommend her!
Lana was awesome! She is very easy to communicate with and responds promptly. We set up the meet and greet and key exchange easily. She shared photos of my doggies the whole time we were away. We came home to a tidy home and happy dogs! Highly recommend, and will definitely be booking again!
Aliyah took super good care of my babies while I was out of town. She sent me pictures of them throughout the week. When I got home my doggos were super happy, and well taken care of. I am very pleased with her services and I recommend her to anyone looking for a doggy sitter. I will 100% contact her again for future dog-sitting! Thank you Aliyah❤️

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.

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 .
