“Page is the number one best dog sitter of all time. Responsible, caring and definitely goes above and beyond. I have 2 sweet dogs, but they don’t trust new people easily. Page had them eating out of her hand. She was able to get my stubborn old girl to take her meds, and they were both happy to see her when she came by. 100% recommend!”
“As Winston has gotten older, I very much worry about leaving him alone. Whenever i have to travel, I make sure Jenna is available before even getting tickets. Appreciate her care and updates when she watches him. 5 stars for sure!!!”
“She was fantastic! Very communicative and took great care of my crew while I was out of town. 🙂 Everything went smoothly and I came home to some happy pups! I’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“I am a nervous dog mom and I hate leaving my pup when I have to travel. He is old with health issues. That being said Morgan was absolutely wonderful and I didn’t worry once. She was communicative with texts and pictures and she took great care of my guy and our house. She followed my instructions to the t. I will be booking with her again with no hesitation. Thank you Morgan!”
About: I’ve taken care of doggies for 12 years for family and neighbors. I will love and care for them like my own. I will always go above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of before leaving. This is my full time job so I can be available on same day appointments or scheduled ahead appointments. Whatever is convenient for you, will be convenient for me. I am gentle and can read a dogs energy. If they are timid or full of energy, I will be sure to accommodate your dogs needs.
“Kyle was amazing, he took my pup on walks almost daily, he did the dishes from my dogs meal prep containers and swept of the kitchen floor. I would 100% recommend him and I will use him again for any future travels. He also took pictures everyday for me.”
About: I currently work from home and love an excuse to get out of the house and/or go for a walk. I’m an experienced pet owner and animal lover. I have raised two puppies and previously had a senior pitbull. I grew up with dogs, cats, and a variety of pets, and I have dog sat for many friends as well over the years. I’m comfortable with all dogs and cats. I currently work from home and am available to drop in whenever you might need (morning, afternoon, evening). I get up with my dogs and take them for walks then play and do some mental stimulation games - I’m more than happy to do these with your fur babies as well. I also have a doggie door and fenced in yard at home, so dogs are free to run in and out to their hearts content. I have had both large and small dogs and am comfortable walking any size on a leash. I love getting on the ground and playing with my girls, so I am happy to meet your fur babies where they are and engage them in whatever way they prefer.
About: I have been responsible for taking care of dogs for a few years through my own pets as well as dog-sitting my roommates Golden Retriever puppy from 8 weeks old to 6 months! During this time I took the puppy outside for potty breaks, for walks, to the park, kept up on feeding schedules, as well as many tug-a-war sessions! As well as overall care throughout the summer! I find joy in my overall priority to make your animals as happy as can be! I am currently looking to find a full-time career so I am available most weekdays to help out with our furry friends! I am available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9-4! I love walking dogs and understand all dogs walk at different distances and paces! I work to ensure your fur pal is walking their adequate distance and pay attention to behavioral changes to note if we need to end the walk early! I also carry treats and water with me on walks to keep everyone happy and healthy! For dog-sitting and drop ins I love ensuring all pups are the happiest they can be! I ensure they get lots of pets and treats while also ensuring I am following their guidelines and routines as to not disrupt them!
About: Howdy there! Mental Health Therapist by day. I’ve had pets as far back as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and my family still has dogs that I love. A life without a pets love is not nearly as enjoyable. They show unconditional love and are always there when you need them most. I enjoy reciprocating this love to animals, and caring for them as my own. I have a degree in counseling psychology and am a very empathic person. I enjoy playing with and petting our furry friends. I also enjoy going for walks and greatly enjoy having a loving animal as a companion on these walks. I understand that in this busy world we aren’t always able to give pets the company and affection that we lack the time for. A consistent gig checking on doggo(s) would be a perfect fit for me! I work full-time at my other job currently, but am certainly flexible. I work full-time at my other job currently, but am certainly flexible. Screw Flanders. Safety first. Safety first. Safety first.

“Lauren was terrific! Took on caring for my 3 dogs at the last minute over holiday weekend. Stepped in without missing a beat in their daily routine. Love the daily updates/pictures. thanks Lauren”

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.
