She was also very helpful in offering to take care of plants & bring in package delivery. Daily pictures & texts made us feel comfortable. I would definately recommend Amy.”

But this time, my cat was happy to see me and there were no accidents! I will definitely use Isabelle in the future!”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and bring over five years of dedicated walking and sitting experience to the table. As a distance runner who loves training for races, I am a fantastic match for high-energy breeds that need to burn off steam with long, active routes. I am highly reliable, communicative, and dedicated to keeping your pup safe, exercised, and happy! I work a hybrid 9-5 job, but I am remote on Mondays and Fridays, and my hours are very flexible, so most days I don't leave for the office until 9:30 or I come home early around 3:30! I love taking my dogs out on walks in the morning when it is nice and cool outside to avoid the heat, as well as letting them out to play with me in the backyard so that they can stretch their legs. I love to give them extra pets and treats as a small reward for their physical activities.

About: My experience comes from always having a dog. My family is extremely pet friendly so I’ve always been surrounded by dogs or all breeds. I love their company and personalities. I am able to give basic care such as baths and medication administration. I currently work part time so my availability is random at the moment. I will be best suited for boarding and drop-ins at this time. I have a back yard area that is not fenced however it is away from people. My dogs fo very well staying in the areas because it is pretty big. My dogs are lazy so we do t go on long walks, but I am more than happy to host a playful, energetic dog.

But she took such good care of them and even got my loner cat to come out for some love!! Faith is very communicative and I loved that she sent plenty of pictures each day. It’s obvious that she loves the cats and taking care of animals! I will not hesitate to book her next time I’m out of town :)”

Sent them to me and most importantly she fell all the instructions to a T. I will definitely be using her again and I definitely recommend her for anyone needing a dog sitter.

Nathalie is an outstanding cat sitter. We came home to very happy, healthy, and well loved cats. Nathalie was a great communicator about how our cats were doing and helped us work through getting them used to their new feeders. We loved the daily photos and the clear peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so professionally.

We were really hesitant at first because this will be the first times our dogs got visited by a sitter, Alexander made everything easy, they went to my home even before the actual dates to meet my dogs i have 3, my dogs instantly liked him, we had alex come by to our home 3 times during the day, he took them out for walks, spend time with them, and also feed them with no problems whats so ever, send pictures updates, really recommend him

Olivia was a wonderful sitter for our three cats. We arranged her service at the last minute after our regular sitter was unavailable. Our cats immediately took to her as she lovingly extended her hand to meet them. They were fed, litter boxes were cleaned and they were calm when we returned. Great communication and it was a nice touch to get photo updates! I can highly recommend her service!

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.
