“Sheron is the best! We know we can rely on her to give our dog and cat the best care when we are out of town. Our 13 year old Izzy is always happy to see Sheron and Jim! We love getting the updates they send on each visit! I highly recommend Sheron.”
“Michele has watched our boys multiple times and every time we come back to happy fur babies! Her communication is perfect. I feel like I know exactly what I need to know and nothing I don’t! So not constantly getting notifications, but if she has a question about the boys or just keeping me in the loop of things that I probably should know she does! We are very grateful for her!”
“Kelsey always takes such good care of Penelope!!!!!! We love booking with Kelsey, she keeps us informed and always sends us great updates. And Penelope loves her so much too!”
“Our kitty absolutely loved Sarah and she is usually very shy with new people. Sarah communicated any questions with us prior to the visit and we loved getting to know her. We will certainly contact her for any future cat sitting needs 🐈”
“Katie provided great care for my kitties! It was really comforting to read her reports and see photos from each visit. Katie followed directions, was very responsible, and was great at communicating and asking questions. I would definitely hire Katie again if she’s available!”
“Shaniese did a great job taking care of our dogs! She took our dog Holly for a walk. She also sent me great pictures of my fur babies while I was away. We really appreciate her giving loving care to our dogs.”
“Madison was great with my cats while I was gone for a long weekend! She was extremely flexible with their specific individual dietary needs and went above and beyond with their care! I will definitely be a returning customer :)”
“Can’t be thankful enough for Autumn. When other plans fell through and I needed someone last minute she agreed to help and worked through issues as they came up to ensure Blitz was cared for while I was away”

“We just can’t say enough good things about Sheryl! She has taken care of us numerous times now with great attention to detail. She spends a long time with Ace making sure he gets plenty of attention. He does not like people he doesn’t know but comes right to her and clearly enjoys her care. Sheryl sends amazing updates each day. We just seriously could not ask for a better caregiver!”
About: I am a recently graduated student that is local to the area. I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and turtles but I'm always looking for something new. The age and weight of animals have I have cared for is varied. I'm used to giving medication if needed. While owners are away they will always know if something is wrong with their house or pets and will not lack on receiving picture updates from their furry babies. I do work full time 4 days a week. If that presents a problem with your dog’s bathroom schedule then I can bring in one of my back up sitters. I do approve the sitter and schedule with you ahead of time to ensure that you know who will be in your house and around your animals. Whatever keeps your pets happy and safe. I like to ensure that pets are exercised and loved thoroughly. Your animals will be nothing short of happy while I’m in your house taking care of them. You will always know if I feel like something may be off with them.
About: HI!! My name is Quyon but i go by Q ! Im 27 years old and i live in aiken South Carolina. I have completed the Veterinary Assistant Course at Aiken Technical College and completed 102 CEU Credits interning at The Ark Animal Hospital and Wagner Veterinary Clinic. To care for anything living is truly remarkable but to love and care for animals is the greatest reward! Right next to face licks and fury hugs! I was introduced to rover from a friend when i needed a sitter and i decided that since im in a position to offer help i will. Feel free to ask me anything im as cool as a cucumber lol maybe a bad joke lol I am currently not working at the moment due to just completing school and wanting a break. This offers me a way to make money and still include the care and compassion i will use in my future endeavors. I live in a spacious apartment. I have no problem taking them to a fenced animal park or for a walk through the neighborhood to enjoy so fresh air and new views
“Beau, our GSP, took right to Susie from their first meet and greet! Susie is kind and has a clear love for dogs. She checked in on Beau for us while we were away for a long day - she was punctual and made sure our boy got lots of attention and exercise to hold him over until we got home. If you need someone to care for and love on your fur babies while you’re away, I recommend Susie.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, horses, and other farm animals. I am reliable and strive to provide excellent care to your animal and treat them as if they were my own. I have been in the equestrian world for >10 years and am comfortable cleaning stalls, moving horses, and exercising them if needed. I am currently working full-time in an ofice, but I am available in the mornings anytime before 9 AM and evenings anytime after 5 PM for drop-in visits! At this time, I cannot offer overnight stays. At this time, I am not able to care for client's pets as I have cats of my own that do not do well with other animals. In your home, I am happy to care for your animals however you'd like (e.g., out during the day/in at night).
About: I have always been around pets I love animals like they were my own and make them a priority when I can care for them!

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.

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 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.
