“Diana was a pleasure to have watch our fuzzy family. She was prompt, communicative, and kind. Diana even excelled at having to provide our one cat his daily syringes, despite being unfamiliar with orally medicating cats beforehand. I highly recommend Diana for your pet-sitting needs.”
“This was our first time using someone on Rover and we are very satisfied with Lauren’s help caring for our two girls. She provided lots of pictures too! We would highly recommend her to others and will be using her again.”
“Josey was great!! Ziggy needed a friend to stop in while we were out of town and she visited as planned, but went above and beyond with communication and her friendliness with Ziggy. Looking forward to have Josey stay with Ziggy again!”
About: I have around 14 years of animal care experience with many different types of animals! I have been entrusted with the care, feeding, enrichment, and more from family, friends, and clients. Pet care fits into my routine perfectly as I am currently a college student and jobs are limited to us. I have a pet myself so being able to do this allows for more experience with animals. I have a dog park nearby but I can easily remove your pet from that space if needed! There is plenty of space to move around and have fun!
About: I like to think of myself as "set it and forget it" reliable. Once I meet with you and your animal friend(s) and we understand the routine, expectations, and needs I want you to be able to enjoy and attend to your time away with confidence that your pet and home environment are safely cared for and monitored. I have experience with a wide variety of pets from cats and dogs to rabbits, pigs, and lizards. Pet care is a large part of my life and I'm always willing and working to make it a larger part. Please reach out to inquire about availability or specific needs. I treat my client's homes and animal friends with the same respect and consideration I give mine. My goal is to be a calm, reassuring presence for your pet while you are away, and hopefully something they look forward to.
“Heather is very attentive and makes sure that she gives clear solid photos of your furry friends. She is very helpful and makes sure all of your animals needs are met. Very reliable. Please book her! She's such a wonderful support to animal care.”
About: I love taking care of dogs! There are so many different types of dogs I’ve gotten to meet and it so great seeing all the different personality’s. I have a 5-month-old Goldendoodle who I’ve been training since he was a puppy. We’re currently working on basic obedience, and he’s making great progress. Our next goal is to begin the training needed for him to become a therapy dog. Training him has given me hands-on experience with positive reinforcement, consistency, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m currently a student so I have a lot of open availability. I can always drop in before or after class, or whichever is necessary. I have a big fenced in yard that my dogs love to run around in. It is big enough for them to get there zoomies out!
“Shakya did an amazing job at taking care of our dog. She did a drop in on a holiday and made sure our pup was taken care of. She is very professional and kind. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Allen
This is our first time using Kennedy - and it was both last-minute and a medical emergency. Not only did the dogs love her, she was very flexible with our crazy schedule and dealing with a very young puppy (4 months). She kept us apprised and was willing to put in extra visits, if needed. Kennedy is very much customer-service focussed. I am delighted that she is a resource we'll use in the future!

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.
