About: I've had pets most of my life. I've cared for big dogs and little dogs. This includes potty training, walking, baths, ear cleaning, and nail trimming. I've also administered medications in pill, liquid, and shots. I've cared for puppies, middle aged, and seniors and know the unique needs at each life stage. I currently work full time, but my wife does not work, so we have lots of time to care for your pet. I am available almost all weekends. I have a full fenced in yard with a 4 foot chain link fence. The fence has been "small dog" proof to ensure no escapees. We have 10 dogs, but all are super friendly and get along well with others. We also have tons of toys, chew bones, and beds throughout the house.

“I was really nervous to leave my cat alone and to try Rover (both for the first time), but Hannah really helped put my mind at ease throughout the entire process/visit. She did an excellent job communicating with me and made sure I had enough pictures and updates to let me know he was doing well. I would highly recommend Hannah and will definitely book her again myself. Thanks Hannah!”

About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly believes dogs are family. ❤️ While I’m new to professional dog walking, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a variety of situations. I’ve had dogs for many years, cared for my sister’s dogs, helped with the arrival of multiple litters of puppies, and have experience caring for senior dogs. I’ve also recently fostered dogs and regularly walk dogs at my local animal shelter, where I get to spend time with dogs of different personalities, ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. I especially have a soft spot for rescue dogs and love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different. Some pups want an energetic adventure and lots of exploring, while others—including senior dogs—may need a slower pace, extra patience, or a little more TLC. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are and give them the individual attention they need. I genuinely love being outdoors, hiking, walking, and spending time in nature, so getting outside with a dog is something I truly enjoy—not just a job. My goal is for your dog to get exercise, attention, companionship, and plenty of love while you’re away. And I’m a cat lover, too! 🐱 I currently have cats of my own and would be happy to provide cat drop-in visits as well. Whether they need food, fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. ❤️🐾 My work schedule changes from week to week, so I don’t have the same days off every week. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my available days and times, so what you see on my calendar reflects my current availability. If you have a specific date in mind that isn’t showing as available, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do! 🐶🐱❤️ Trust means everything when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home. I don’t take that trust lightly. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Safety always comes first. I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and be mindful of their individual needs and surroundings. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your furry family members are doing while you’re away. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping in to care for your cat, my goal is simple: keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—and leave you with peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and reliable. During drop-in visits, I focus on safety, enrichment, and clear communication so you feel confident every time you’re away. I work at a campground, so my schedule varies by season, but I plan in advance and communicate clearly. I focus on drop-in visits and short check-ins in your home, and I’m reliable about timing, updates, and following your pet’s routine. I care for pets in your home exactly as instructed, keeping their environment safe, clean, and consistent. I follow detailed routines for feeding, medication, and enrichment, and I send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: As a former pet owner I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are safe and comfortable. I have over 10 years of experience with all breeds and types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering dogs out of our childhood home. I was very involved even at the age of 6. We stopped fostering when I was around the age of 19. I have experience administering medication to dogs. I have experience with training. And I have LOTS of experience, cuddling with dogs🥰 I am currently a part-time RBT. My current schedule is Wednesday, Friday 3:30pm-7:30 and Saturday 9:30am-1:30. I’ll only be gone for around 4-5 hours those days if I do end up staying with your fur-babies I will adjust to your dogs schedule. I love walking and playing with energetic dogs, or cuddling with the sleepy ones! Daily updates are not a problem if you ask for them. However I will send updates sparingly if not requested in respect for personal pace/ if you’re on vacation.

About: Hey there! I’m Kristen. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was in elementary school! I have experience taking care of and owning small and large dog breeds, cats, and even farm animals like goats, pigs, turkeys and cows! I also worked at a local public alpaca farm, Majestic Meadows, and provided love, care and husbandry for a variety of exotic and farm animals, including horses, donkeys, alpacas, llamas, and more! I have experience working with animals who have special dietary needs, special medication needs, senior pets, and pets who have physical disabilities and need extra care and aid! I can brush your pet, clean their ears and teeth (if they will let me and it is safe to do so), and give them a simple bath if you would like! Lastly I do have experience in basic behavior training for dogs, including click/reward training to teach sitting, lay down, and release, however I am NOT a professional dog trainer and cannot sit for dogs that experience highly aggressive behaviors or biting towards people. I am currently doing Rover full time, so I will have plenty of time for your pets needs and for playtime, and am able to make sure that bathroom breaks and meal/snack times are not spaced too far apart :) For house sitting I cannot stay full time around the clock as I often have doctors appointments I need to attend, so I may have to come and go, but I would not be gone for longer than 3-4 hours at any given time, so if your fur baby can be alone for 3-4 hours, then I can accommodate for that 😊 I make sure to closely follow any given instructions for pet care, including instructions for a special diet or medications, and if the pet needs any special needs care or aid with grooming! I like to go over the details with clients of how their pet may like to play, how they get along with other animals/people, how they like to be pet, how they do on walks, what their favorite snacks are, and of course any special needs such as oral medications, special dietary needs, etc… to make sure that I am offering the highest quality of care and comfortability for their fur baby! I also make sure to pay close attention to timing between meals, snacks and potty breaks so their pets don’t become uncomfortable or have any accidents. Lastly, I make sure to give lots of love and attention to their pet so they don’t feel lonely!

“Makayla did an outstanding job, We were away on vacation for a whole week and had her look in on the animals/house twice a day. She proved herself to be very loving and responsible! She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”

About: I have been around animals of all kinds and sizes my whole life. I have been raised to love and care for pets. I am attentive to their needs and love dedicating time—including play time—toward them. I have provided pet sotting services both in my home and in other homes, have administrated medications for my clients, and have performed nail trimmings and baths to keep pets looking their best. I am also good with walking dogs and teaching them tricks. I have taken care of senior pets. I am patient, kind, and respectful of all breeds. As someone who works from home, I am usually always with my pets! I wake up around 8am and serve breakfast. Lunch is at 1pm and dinner at 6pm with a treat and plenty of potty breaks in between. In my home, I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys for fun. I also have four dogs and four cats, all vaccinated, to keep your pets company. In your home, I am comfortable doing whatever you need me to.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats every day. I recently raised my own puppy who’s now a happy, well-behaved 1-year-old, so I’m very comfortable with puppy routines, training basics, and high-energy pets. I also have a 5-year-old cat, giving me years of experience with feline behavior, feeding schedules, and creating a calm, safe environment for more independent pets. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals. I understand the different needs of young, active pets as well as more mature ones, and I always treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. I work full time throughout the week as a dental hygienist, that makes after work a great time for dog walking! This also means pet sitting is strictly weekends so I can give your pet my full attention ! I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel comfortable. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I keep their space clean, cozy, and stress-free.

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 .

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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
