“Brandy took excellent care of our cats while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and made sure to keep us updated on how they were doing. We came back to healthy, happy fur babies!”
“Ian was great to work with! He was able to help out with multiple visits during a last-minute emergency. He was on time, clearly communicated, and gave my dog plenty of love and attention! 10/10 would use Ian again for future needs!”
“Karissa is great! She took care of both of our pups exactly as they needed to be. She's very kind and patient, considering we have one 6 month old high energy dog and one 9 week old puppy (handfuls!!). We love that she has experience in different facets of animal care and training, and is close to home. I would definitely recommend and we will be using Karissa again!”
“I reached out to Victoria last minute and from the get go communication was great! She updated us with pictures and let us know how well our pups did every visit. This was our first time having a Rover sitter and I will absolutely use Victoria again! I think our pups were secretly upset it was us walking in the door and not her...”

I am not a certified trainer, however, I am able to do some basic training sessions as a form of mental stimulation for your dog as well.
“Emily is great. I can tell she really cares for animals and my dog (and fish) would agree. She’s punctual and shared plenty of picture updates while we were away. I definitely recommend Emily for your pet sitting needs! 😃”
About: I've taken care of dogs/cats since I was little. I've helped friends who work long hours with letting their pets out, playing to burn some energy, food routines, walks as well! I've bathed my own animals, but if I get the run down of what to do. I will be able to do it. I'm a single mom/ former dsp (caregiver) so during the morning hours I have hours of free time to fill. My daughter loves animals too so she doesn't mind walking with or playing with animals either. 😊 I keep water fresh daily, make sure they get feed twice a day or how ever their feeding routine goes. I don't mind if accidents happen, always willing to clean up. Willing to change litter boxes, they don't phase me since i have my own.
“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our 2 cats. They really loved her and how she interacted with them, and we felt confident the entire time we were away that they were being cared for as we would care for them. We 100% recommend, and will definitely book Melissa again next time we need a sitter for our purr monsters.”

- 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.

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 .
