For pet sitters and dog walkers

Know if you can make it before you say yes.

StopSmith puts your pet-sitting visits and your personal calendar on one timeline, with the drive between every stop. When a new request comes in, you'll know if it fits your whole day, not just your work calendar.

Works with
  • Rover
  • Google Calendar
  • iCloud
  • Outlook
  • Any iCal link

A free spot on your calendar isn't always free.

A request for noon looks open on your work calendar. But your dentist appointment ends at 11:45 across town, 28 minutes away, so you can't get there until 12:13. Your work calendar doesn't know about the dentist, and your family calendar doesn't know about the drive.

StopSmith sees both. It knows where every stop is, work or personal, and how long the drive takes at that time of day, so it catches the problem before you accept.

One day, not two calendars

Your clients don't know about the school run, and your family calendar doesn't know about your visits. StopSmith puts it all together, so you can see your real day and say yes with confidence.

  • Your visits

    Rover bookings and pending requests, plus clients from any other calendar you work from.

  • Your life

    School runs, appointments and family plans from Google Calendar, iCloud or Outlook.

  • The drive between

    Every stop, work or personal, with the drive estimated for that time of day, including trips home.

How it works

  1. Connect your calendars

    Paste your Rover calendar link, and connect your personal calendar too: Google Calendar, or any calendar with a subscription link, such as iCloud or Outlook. StopSmith keeps them all up to date.

  2. Make sure every stop has an address

    Events that include a location are ready to go. Rover's calendar leaves addresses out, so you add each Rover client's address once and StopSmith remembers it.

  3. Check a request

    Enter the dates and times, and every date comes back marked Fits, Tight or Conflict, with the reason. Pending Rover requests are checked for you.

A clear answer for every date.

  • Fits 10 minutes or more to spare, after the drive and your own extra time between stops.
  • Tight You can make it, with under 10 minutes to spare.
  • Conflict It overlaps something, or you can't get there in time.

When a date doesn't work, StopSmith finds the closest time that does. For a repeating request, it looks for one time that works on every date, so you can offer your client a single answer.

Everything in one place

  • Work and life on one timeline

    Day, week and month views that put your visits, school runs, appointments and family plans together, with the drive between every stop.

  • Directions in one tap

    Open the drive between any two stops in Google Maps, ready to navigate.

  • Pending requests, checked for you

    Requests waiting in your Rover calendar are checked automatically, so you know which ones fit before you reply.

  • Times you agreed with clients

    When a client asks you to come a little earlier or later, adjust the visit in StopSmith and add a note about why.

  • All your calendars

    Rover, Google Calendar, and any calendar with a subscription link, such as iCloud or Outlook.

  • Made for your phone

    Works in your phone's browser and can be added to your home screen like an app. No app store needed.

Use Rover? Your bookings stay on Rover.

You don't need Rover to use StopSmith, but it works well with it. StopSmith only reads the calendar link Rover provides. It never changes your Rover bookings, and your messages, bookings and payments all stay in Rover. StopSmith is an independent tool and isn't affiliated with Rover.
