“Miranda gave us the peace of mind we’ve been looking for for our two beautiful cats. We have been doing of family vacation for six years and this is the first year I have been able to be worry free. Miranda sent messages and pictures of each visit, in my opinion, she took care of our cats like they were her own. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the time and care you gave our boys , we will definitely use Miranda again if she’s available ♥️”
About: After getting my family pitbull/boxer 8 years ago, I’ve become extremely confident and comfortable with animals. I absolutely LOVE caring for animals! For a couple years I worked as a pet care technician, so I know all about pet care. Along with caring for my own dog, I’ve also cared for my neighbors cat and family friend’s dogs for years. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring companionship, health, and happiness for my furry friend through feeding, walks, playtime, and affectionate moments. I will care for my clients pets like they are my own babies. I’ll give them as much love and attention as they’re willing to receive :)
About: I’ve owned and been around dogs my whole life. They truly are my favorite animal and I love all breeds and genders. I am a student at GVSU so I’m not able to see my dogs every day which is very hard for me. I love spending time with dogs, they bring me so much joy. When I was 6 my family got a German Shepard puppy named Sophie and she lived to be 14 years old. I got my other dog Diesel for my 16th birthday as a puppy. I took care of him and trained him up until I went to college. I also have a small dog, Gunner, that I’ve helped train and take care of when he was a puppy. I have also owned rabbits and hamsters. I’m a full-time college student so my schedule can be busy some days and empty on other days. I can take time in between my classes to walk and or take care of a dog. Safety is my biggest concern when caring for my dogs and other peoples dogs. They are members of the family so their safety is very important to me. When caring for my dogs I pay attention to their body language. For example, when my dogs were puppies I would let them out after they ate and drank and made sure to watch for excessive sniffing. I also play inside and outside with my dogs. My dog Diesel loves to go and get a pup cup from Starbucks so we also do that often!
“Ashel took great care of my cat. I appreciated that she suggested a meet and greet in advance, and she was very patient with my very shy/anxious cat. While I was gone, she was communicative and easy to get a hold of.”
“From the moment I met Sarah, I could tell our animals would be in excellent hands! Sarah is smart, kind, intuitive, and has great common sense. She took care of our two cats and even our chickens while we were gone for a week and I appreciated her thorough and timely check ins, great pictures, and the excellent care she provided. I cannot recommend her enough! I will definitely rebook her anytime I need a pet sitter!!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals since a young age! I love animals of all sizes and breeds! My Mother used to breed puppies so I am very well with them as well! I am currently a college student at Grand Valley State University so I will be trying to pick up some pet care on the side when i’m not busy with classes or homework! I will make sure to keep your animals safe and entertained, however you instruct me to care for your animals and keep them safe in your home!
“My kitty struggled with me being gone this time around and Lauren still worked her magic and cheered him up. Lauren is reliable and does a great job every visit! So grateful to have her!”
“Lucas took fantastic care of our pups! His communication was great and he sent us awesome pictures of his time with our dogs. We would highly recommend Lucas to anyone looking for a great caretaker for their pets!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love taking care of them. I have two dogs and two cats of my own, and I also grew up on a farm where I helped take care of all kinds of animals, which taught me to be responsible, patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of any age, size, and personality. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! As a college student, I do have a busy schedule, but I make sure to prioritize my time so that any pets in my care get the attention they deserve. I can work my classes and study around walks, playtime, feeding, or any special needs your pets might have. I enjoy spending time with animals, so making them a part of my daily routine fits in naturally. At home, I have two Golden Retrievers and two cats, so caring for pets is part of my daily life. I love taking my dogs on hikes or for drives to burn off energy, and I’m all about cuddling and giving attention to my cats. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I do the same. Following their routines, making sure they get exercise, playtime, and lots of love so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Madison has been great with Loki! She has been flexible with my work schedule. He is a puppy so he is a bit demanding. She tends to him right away and plays with him until the end of the visit. The picture updates are much appreciated!”
About: I had a dog for a long time and always took care of him. A bunch of family friends always want me to take care of their animals. Also spend time caring for my grandparents horse. I can take dogs on walks during the day and sometimes at night when i don’t have to work!! I’m willing to do anything just have good communication!! Cats and dogs are allowed on beds and couches and we have a yard that is not fenced but dogs love it and still can play outside.

“Cassandra did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away! She followed all instructions and went above and beyond for the upkeep of the apartment. From the photos Cassandra sent, it seemed like my cat had a good time with her and I can tell she loves cats. I would definitely recommend Cassandra for your cat sitting needs:)”

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.
