“Lauren did an exceptional job walking my dog Ollie while I was traveling. It was his first time with Lauren and immediately decided she was his bestie for the week. Her reports were thoroughly positive and detailed. Lauren will definitely be our first choice for future Josh sits!”
“Lauren was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! She took care of Tilly our “spicy” and sometimes difficult cat with ease. She always sent us photos and was very communicative. I will definitely hire her again when needed and would highly recommend!!!”
About: I've grown up with all kinds of different animals, so I'm a huge animals person, especially a dog lover. I've also been a dog walker for friends and family for about 3 years now, and I've also been housesitting a lot over the past year. besides that i also work at a dog daycare and am around dogs 24/7, so I'm very familiar with different dogs and behavers. cant wait to meet your fur babies! I currently work part time, so i have tons of time to hangout with your fur babies! I'm mostly available in the afternoon, but i can normally work around my work schedule to make things work. i have a fenced in yard, and 3 friendly dogs. i can easily crate 1 or more dogs if needed. it really comes down to whatever my client is comfortable with, and whatever the safest option is.
About: I have had a family dog since the age of 3 years old! I love all animals especially dogs and looking to spend time and give yours love! Neighbors, family and friends have always relied on me for short to long term care of their fur babies! Work from home half the week and free weekends to help take care of your pets! Also have flexibility during the work week to care for your pets! I have a very clean and welcoming apartment that is safe for your pets! Even enough room to play and for crates. Your pets are in good hands!
“It was our first time going away since we adopted our cat. We were nervous and hesitant about leaving her while we were gone. Our timid cat warmed up to Cecilia right away and this made us feel so much better! Cecilia was attentive and followed our cat's routine. She did an amazing job with Lola and would we not hesitate having Cecilia watch our cat again.”
About: Your pet deserves someone who will care for them with the same patience, attention, and kindness you do. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a relaxing drop-in visit, or all-day companionship, I'll follow your pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take time to earn their trust while keeping you updated with photos and messages. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is receiving attentive, reliable care I look forward to meeting you and your pet!
About: I have been taking care of dogs for friends, family, and acquaintances for 20 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and have also administered daily medication. Myself and my husband have flexible hours and one of us is usually home. We are only not home for about 4 hours total a day. I have some experience in basic training as well. I have a dog park within 5 minutes of my home to be able to run and play. We do not have a fenced in yard, but we will be getting one in the near future. I live in Nazareth so the town is very quiet, but close to everything. Dogs are allowed on all furniture and can even come to bed with us. We want your dog to feel like part of our family.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including a Black Lab, Miniature Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd. Being around such different breeds has taught me that every dog has their own personality, energy level, quirks, and way of showing you what they need. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs in my family. I regularly help care for my sister’s two dogs—a 1-year-old Corgi and a 13-year-old English Bulldog. Having both a young, energetic dog and a senior dog has given me an appreciation for how different their needs can be. One may want to play, explore, and keep you moving, while the other may need a slower pace, extra patience, comfort, and a little more attention. I also frequently care for a French Bulldog in my family when his dad needs someone he trusts to look after him. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog individually and learning their routines, personalities, favorite activities, and little quirks. I also have experience caring for Ozzie, my mom’s boyfriend’s 7-year-old Whoodle. Spending time with Ozzie has given me even more experience caring for an adult dog with his own personality, routines, and preferences. I enjoy taking the time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy rather than assuming every dog needs the same type of care. And of course, I can’t forget Mochi, my boyfriend’s approximately 5-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix. Mochi is another special part of my life and has given me even more experience getting to know a dog’s individual personality, routines, habits, and quirks. Caring for him has also taught me that sometimes the smallest dogs have the biggest personalities! What makes pet care special to me is that I don't look at it as simply a job or a checklist of feeding, walking, and letting a pet outside. Your pets are family, and I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. I’m naturally very patient, attentive, and nurturing with animals. I pay attention to the little things—whether a dog needs some extra exercise, some quiet time, reassurance in a new situation, or simply someone to sit beside them and give them some love. I’m also comfortable giving pets the time and space they need to warm up to me rather than expecting them to immediately feel comfortable. Whether your pup is a playful youngster, a laid-back senior, or somewhere in between, I’ll take the time to understand what makes them happy and make their care feel as close to home as possible. And because I’m a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely believe that four little paws come with a whole lot of love—and deserve a whole lot right back. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when available. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. I communicate openly with pet parents and do my best to be dependable and flexible with scheduling. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or visiting for a walk or drop-in, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications if applicable, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I’m patient with pets who may be shy or take some time to warm up to someone new, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can recognize when something seems different. I’m also very mindful about doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and keeping pets safely supervised. I want you to feel confident knowing that while you’re away, your pet is receiving loving, attentive care and your home is being treated respectfully. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Jonathan did a great job taking care of our boys. He was on time, took photos and our shy cat warmed up to him. We felt at ease while traveling because Jonathan was so reliable and loves animals. Thank you!”
About: Need a summer or holiday break? Don't worry, I've got you covered. I love dogs, and dogs love me. I have been a proud pet owner for nearly 20 years, and have had the pleasure of caring for several dogs on this site - each with its own personality. I have a Westie, who loves playing with other dogs - big or small. I will be gentle but firm with your pet. Your dog will get a daily walk on the Delaware Canal, a nearby quiet country road, or for a treat, the dog park. I also have a fenced-in outdoor area where he or she can wander. I can play ball with your dog or tug-o-war. Your dog can wander freely in my house and can sleep where he or she feels comfortable. I do work 8 to 4 weekdays but have all federal and state holidays off. My uncle is here to supervise when I am at work. I have a fenced-in side yard for dogs to exercise and get fresh air. Pets will be monitored at all times to ensure their safety
“Justina did an excellent job caring for our three cats while we were away. She provided frequent updates and amazing photos that gave us peace of mind and showed that our fur babies were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear she took the time to make sure they received plenty of attention and care during each visit. We came home to three happy cats and felt completely confident that they were in good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Justina and will definitely be booking with her again in the future! 🐾💕”
About: Having grown up in the Lehigh Valley with an epileptic dog and two cats - one with diabetes - I’ve become a confident, reliable pet caretaker for friends, family, coworkers, and regulars. They can count on me to walk, feed, play with, and provide medication to their dogs and cats across age ranges. I have a particular familiarity with senior pets, but as someone with an active lifestyle, I have no problem going for long walks or playing for extended periods of time. Plus, I’m super familiar with the area and have reliable transportation. I can get to your pet no problem and even take them out on a new trail! I’m an actress working in the local and regional theatres in the area, which means my schedule leaves plenty of time to care for your pets. I always stick to house guidelines when I enter/stay at a client’s home to care for their pet. Your pet and your home are in my care, so I keep things clean, orderly, and never invite guests over unchecked. Need me to bring in the mail or a package? No problem! Not to mention, I’ll look after your pet like they’re my own — that means the basics, plus quality time, pets, easy grooming, playtime.
“Kasey did a wonderful job watching over my two babies. She sent me pictures and updates everyday and my pups looked happy and well cared for. She attended to their special needs and gave them lots of love. I appreciate that she asked questions to make sure they got the same care I give them in terms of eating and activity. Will use her again!!”
About: Hello! I am new to Rover . I grew up with a pug and now have a energetic Boston terrier! I can walk, and spend time with, or feed your pets. I absolutely love cats AND dogs. I look forward to getting to know you furry family member! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time to give your pet all the attention and care they need! My schedule is pretty open! I am always careful with entering someone’s house because I know my cat try’s to get out and I am careful when walking dogs in case they don’t get along with other dogs as my dog does not.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alpha
I was very nervous about leaving my 18 year-old Pomeranian mix with someone I don't know personally. Kristen was great! She did everything she said she was going to do and then some. The communication was great and she always sent me pictures to see how things were going. I would absolutely call her again.
Another great experience with Brittany! I’m so glad I found her on Rover. My dog is always happy and well taken care of when he’s with her, and it makes leaving him so much easier knowing he’s in good hands. Brittany is great about communicating and keeping me in the loop, and I always come home knowing everything went smoothly. She has definitely become someone I trust and will continue to book with whenever I need someone to watch him. Highly recommend Brittany!
Jessenia - kept us updated on everything our sweet furboy did. She even waited for him to finish up his breakfast. Pictures made my heart feel at ease as we were away. If you’re looking for peace of mind regarding your fur baby care don’t hesitate to have Jessenia do the job!
Kristie was excellent ! We met for the first time when she came to the house to meet the pups. All of them LOVED her, even our shy guy immediately took to her. She was kind, easy to talk to and great with all of our dogs. We will absolutely hire Kristie again if she will have us ! Thank you Kristie !
Thank you Emily for taking such great care of Nova! Being the first time I needed someone to check in on him I was for sure nervous, but Emily was amazing and helped me feel very at ease. I loved the pictures she sent me to keep me updated. And she even helped clean a mess Nova had left in my kitchen. I got to enjoy the time away with my daughter knowing he was in good care. I will definitely use her services again, amd recommend her to others as well!!! Super super sweet girl.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Alpha choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .

Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
