“Abigail is always on time and has a great attitude. Our dogs warm up to her quickly and she knows what she is doing. We highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs”

About: My earliest memories all include my furry sibling, a gigantic Doberman Pinscher named Wolf. In the four decades since my first faithful canine companion taught me unconditional love and the gentle responsibility of learning to read unspoken needs, my journey as a caregiver has been shaped by many interspecies instructors. Each experience has refined my natural intuition, molding me into a deeply responsible, proactive, and trustworthy in-home pet sitter. I understand that your pets are family, and I specialize in reading animal body language, maintaining exact routines, and providing the attentive, steady presence your pets need to feel safe while you are away. When you choose me, you can expect care beyond the minimum basics of keeping your pets safe and comforted in their familiar environment, adhering to feeding schedules, portion control, and exercise or play routines. You can rest assured I will make every effort to keep your pet happy and your home immaculate, following your established rules and routines. I will provide patient, gentle, and reliable delivery of medications, and safely transport your pets to playdates, grooming or training appointments as required. Additionally, I will maintain attentive home care tasks such as daily vacuuming, bringing in mail, watering plants, or cycling lights.Your peace of mind and satisfaction are my utmost priorities. As a pet parent and proud homeowner, I know trusting that your pet's comfort and your home's security will be maintained isn't always easy, so I like to keep you assured all is well by sharing text and photo updates as frequently as you request. I am semi retired from the film industry doing occasional freelance work or short term contract jobs. When I accept a pet care booking it is my top priority and I will only take concurrent bookings that maintain our agreed upon routine. Because I know how important consistency and routines are to happy, well-adjusted pets I focus exclusively on care within your home, centering my approach on maintaining routine. I make every effort to follow instructions for your pet and home to the letter.

I’m able to provide long walks and runs. Maintain a scheduled feeding time as well as a comfortable environment. I also prioritize maintaining a mentally stimulating environment.

“King and Mika had a good day on the drip in visits. He made a new friend. I got regular updates. And everything went smoothly! He’s looking forward to their next play date.”
About: I’ve had many dogs growing up (4 total), the love and passion I gained for animals I ended up working at a pet store and worked there for a year! It helped me gain even more knowledge and a lot of experience. As in, helping the groomers, learning from trainers, guiding customers on what their senior/puppies need. I have pet sat for a lot of family and friends. dogs ranging from 20-110lbs :) I’m currently a student looking to earn extra money while being able to do something I love. I have two lovely babies of my own, a cat and a bearded dragon, whom I fully care for by myself. Caring for my babies is already apart of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, being attentive, and the responsibility. I’m happy to add pet care into my schedule so I can provide and help out with what your fury friends need and to release stress for the owners! I would prioritize a pet’s safety and comfort. As a pet owner, I understand the importance of trust you’d have to gain for someone who is taking care of your babies! I will follow rules the owner has set for me to be able to provide that rise of trust. It’s important for me to be consistent in pet routines and keeping everything clean, so the environment can be safe and warming. Respecting owners homes is a very important factor, and to feel reassured I will be providing updates. My goal is to make sure every owner and pet feels comfortable and secured :)

“I am so happy to have Morgan looking after my girl Carly! It has reduced the stress and anxiety that I feel when leaving her knowing that she has such a caring pet sitter looking after her! I get the cutest pictures and videos and it just makes my heart happy! I am thankful that Rover was recommended to me, but even more grateful that I found Morgan!”

About: Majority of my years with Rover have been in NYC and have had a great reputation with them as well as my clients. I care for my own dogs (frenchie/boston terrier mix and a boston terrier) as if they were my daughters. Well trained and taken care for emotionally and physically. I have always been a dog person and never have found a dog I have not gotten along with. Aside for studying voice acting, I work as a part-time bartender so I am usually available. I keep clients updated at all times, especially with housesitting appointments. I have babysat, walked and cared for many dogs and have always been praised for my patient, loving treatment of them. I will play with them, feed and care for them however needed. If there are any special needs, I am willing to accommodate as well. My time is flexible. I always put work first and my personal schedule works around that. I like to make sure at the very least, the basic needs of pets are taken care of before anything else. I have a fenced yard and a play pen for small dogs. Toys, water bowls if needed, and will give attention and playtime if your dog is an active.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life, from smaller breeds to large. I’ve worked at two dog daycares before, working with training dogs; grooming( nail trimming and bathes). My love for animals is very endless, they are better than people sometimes XD! I care for my own animals, so pet care is already a part of my daily routine! I work part time, otherwise my attention is focused on my fur babies at home. My apartment complex has an designed area with ample room for activities that my small dog enjoys and could be offered to my clients. I am flexible, and am great at accommodating to the many different personalities that animals may possess. I have worked at multiple dog boarding facilities that have allowed me to practice caring for many dogs at once and assessing each of their needs individually and accordingly.
“Yasiry was amazing! She responded immediately to my last minute request and came home to meet the dogs. She was always on time and kept me updated with messages and pictures. I’ll definitely use her service again in the future.”
“Emily is a true gem. After trying to find assistance close to time, Emily came to the rescue. She communicated along the way and made sure my fur baby had what he needed. If you need someone who will be on time, friendly and thorough, Emily should be your top pick!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, especially when it comes to cats and dogs! I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals and am happy to provide loving, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Clear instructions help me give your pets the best possible care! I am currently free any time, night or day, weekends as well. I can do extended stay or intermittent periods as needed. I can also do holidays. I know how to handle dogs or pups and cats or kittens. I take care in making sure all instructions are followed with utmost precision

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
