“As always, Sheri is genuinely the best! Our sweet Poseidon absolutely adores her. Sheri is our go-to whenever we need a cat sitter! We highly recommend her to any and all who may be in need of a sitter for their sweet fur babies!”
“My cat Charlee was content and happy when I arrived home after a 5 day vacation. Anna's daily visits made all the difference in keeping my cat feeling safe, secure & loved.”
“Jessica was so great at putting me at ease with my first trip away after getting a puppy. She came on time every day, communicated so fast, and was flexible when my travel schedule changed last minute. It’s great to have a trusted resource when needed!”
“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
About: I’ve been petsitting/housesitting for just over 6 years. I’ve worked with rescue dogs that have trauma, dogs with epilepsy, dogs with anxiety, dogs that need high energy output, as well as senior dogs. I’ve administered medications in a timely manner and have coordinated care with many owners. I will diligently work for you and your pups! I’m a home nail tech, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m petsitting, I’m able to build my days around care if need be. I’m quick to learn the routine of the pets, and I do my best to fit within it so the pets can have the most comfort.
“Rachel is amazing. Great communication and flexibility when doing drop-ins with my Dog. She took good care of him and went well beyond what I expected. Definitely going to be requesting her again.”
About: I have had dogs my whole entire life. I most recently moved cross country from TX to WA with 3 cats and my perfect one eyed dog Sophie. I have medication administration experience with others’ dogs as well as my own, and I have been trusted to watch people’s pets and houses for many many years. I am still finding my roots here in WA and I believe being able to meet and treat your pets like my own will bring me to feel more at home. I am between jobs currently so I have very little schedule limitations. I currently have no overnight house sitting stays listed, but that can be changed if it works for both of us! I love getting to know new areas by walking around and when I have a dog with me that’s familiar with the area, even better. It’s like having my own little tour guide. I can walk, feed, water, brush, play, etc. with your babies. I am currently not able to have any pets stay at my apartment, but I am open to house sitting or doing overnights if it works out for us both.
About: I've been caring for cats my entire life and have extensive experience meeting their unique needs and personalities. I also have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've provided pet sitting for family and friends, helping with feeding, playtime, and daily care. I understand how important pets are to their families and strive to provide loving, reliable care so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. care of cats since I was very young. I currently work full-time Sunday through Thursday so on those days I would stop by in the late afternoon and early evenings. I am more flexible on Fridays and Saturdays. While I'd love to welcome every pet into my home, I have multiple pets of my own and cannot accommodate additional animals in my rental home. But while I'm visiting your own, your pet's routine is important to me. While caring for your pet in your home, I follow your instructions closely and ensure all daily tasks are completed, from feeding and walks to litter box cleaning, playtime, and picking up toys.
“Shaianne was so helpful coming to check on our pup last minute! And the pictures she takes are the best Kato was definitely happy to see a new face and sleepy after some play time!”
“Emma was great with our cat! She made sure she always had water and food, cleaned her litter box, and gave her lots of love and attention. She also sent lots of pictures and was great at communicating. Will definitely book her again!”
“Emily helped me with a last minute booking and she treated my boys with so much love and care! the pictures were so cute and my boys looked happy!🐾🩵 amazing communication from Emily! I recommend her! thank you!”
About: I have 3 dogs who love to play with other dogs. I also love to play with other dogs! I love going to the dog park and getting to pet new dogs. I have a Pekinese, Pitbull, and Pitbull mix, they are very gentle with their tiny brother. I work from home and work for myself, so I make my own schedule. I can take them on walks when needed, go on potty breaks when needed, attention when needed. Ideal situation. I have a fully fenced yard and my dogs like to chase each other around. Inside same thing, we really don't have any rules, except dogs stay downstairs. We love to play with them and wrestle around, but also respect when they need their space or when they just need cuddles.
“Silvia goes above and beyond. She is trustworthy, reliable, conscientious and even asks about doing extras. I have zero concerns leaving our pet babes in her capable hands”
“Thank you for taking care of our boys! Alexis was always on time and was extremely flexible with our schedules. She took good care of our dogs and we will happily have her watch them again!”
About: I've had pets my entire life and have walked dogs, house sat with cats, and have done drop in visits on and off for years now. I understand pet care is particular and unique and would love to relieve the burden that is worrying from afar! I am currently attending college online and will be working to help sustain my life while doing so through side work! It is self paced so I am flexible. I do not offer services in my own home but will make sure your pets are always safe and well taken care of in your home or neighborhood.
About: I can almost read your furbabies mind! Patience and love as if they were my own is what I provide. It’s all about them and what they want to do at that particular moment. I want to make sure they eat, pee and poop. Then, I feel as though my job is complete. You have to treat them as if they are the kinds. It’s funny but true?. There should be just enough time for your fur baby to fill me in on the happenings and what’s not making them happy or maybe they’re content and just want a rub down with kind words to let them know that they are in good hands until the next visit. I love animals and they love me! I am retired but currently work part time on a farm and love nature and all animals. My schedule is flexible and I aim to please. Just let me know what works for you and your schedule. I have a fenced backyard and able to simply open the doors when my dog needs or wants to go outside. Also, he visits and plays with 2 cats that are indoor/outdoor neighbors and they are very entertaining.
“Karen and Matt are great people. They watched Bruno while I was gone. They communicated well, informed, and updated me. They were kind, loving and gave lots of attention to my dog. I highly recommend them. Thank you!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Ariana! She did drop-in visits for our two dogs, Nickle and Dax, over the course of three days, and we couldn’t be more pleased. From the start, Ariana eased my anxiety with her consistent communication and the absolutely adorable pictures she sent of our fur babies during each visit. Both dogs warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot—she clearly has a natural way with animals. Ariana was professional, punctual, and clearly took her responsibilities seriously. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were in kind and capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alderton
Jessica was very attentive to my pup and her separation anxiety while I was away. My pup got quickly accustomed to having Jessica drop by for a visit, a walk and some treats. I really appreciate that Jessica communicated often and I hope to continue having Jessica do drop in visits with my pup, Macy, whenever I need to travel without her. I will definitely recommend her.
Nikki was great with our kitties. Even the most shy kitties came out for her! She was also able to give our most stubborn kitty his medicine. It was such a relief knowing our kitties were being well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be asking her to come back.
Nicole did a great job helping out with my new puppy Benni. I couldn't leave him in his crate for too long while I was at work. She was able to let him out, played with him in the back yard, and fed him his mid-day meal. Nicole was punctual, and communicated to me when she might arrive a little early/late. Would definitely recommend!
This was our third time booking Ariana for drop-in visits, and she continues to be amazing! Nickle and Dax are always so comfortable with her, and we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such caring and reliable hands. She’s communicative, dependable, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely keep booking with her!
Natane took such great care of our cat while we were away, Nugget absolutely LOVED her and all the playing/snuggles from her daily. She even went above and beyond cleaning up his messes, the litter box, and took out our trash in the kitchen! We couldn’t recommend her more. We will be returning clients!

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.
