“Stacey was great. Took care of my fur baby while I was out of town. Everything went well. My baby was fed and watered and litter box clean and I had no worries. Loved getting the pictures and little report cards.”
“My puppy, Miss Daisy, met Jennifer today. She has separation anxiety and is only 10 months old. I had no worries leaving my home and found her in great spirits upon my return. She paid extra attention to her with a couple of walks and lots of cuddling, too. Thanks, Jennifer, you will hear from me soon!”
About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a little girl. I have been trusted to care for many of my friends, neighbors, and families pets. I currently have two sweet dogs and a loving cat I’m currently an online Master’s student, so my schedule is very flexible and open. I’m looking forward to caring for pets during my study breaks! I am a very hands-on pet caretaker. I like to make sure each animal I meet feels loved and special! I have a knack for building trust with animals (I think it’s my patience and warm nature that’s the key)!
“Megan is polite, respectful and communicative. You can't ask for a better person to take care of your furry family members while you are away. Very happy and would rebook again!”
About: I have cared for or been around almost every dog breed that exists. Every time I meet a new pet, it very easy for me to get comfortable with them and show them the respect they deserve in order for them to get comfortable with me. I have owned 3 different dog breeds, each different sizes. Big, medium, or small, I am able to walk and play with them all! I am currently in flight school, flying Saturday to Tuesday every week for 3 hours out of the day. I can attend to your pets before and after a flight, or any time on the days I am not flying (Wednesday to Friday). I will follow your instructions to the last detail. How I walk and play with your dog is how you would walk and play with your dog. I have experience with elderly pets as well and will work with you to get them active without pushing them too much.
About: Since I can remember as a little girl, I’ve always had a passion & drive to take care of animals and really interact & get to know them. Each has their own personality that are just so fun to explore. From as small as anoles and 3 week old kittens, up to as big as Great Danes & large parrots, I’ve cared for everything and I love getting to know each pet! [small fee for meet & greets past 12 miles (~over 30 minute drive) for fuel, thank you!] Currently, my schedule is free! Looking to try to get into this full time, but anything dealing with animals is my focus! My schedule is very open right now and i’m open to anytimes! I will definitely get to know your pet first, go slow with them and just build a positive, playful rapport with them so they truly get to trust me. Anything you or your pet needs, please let me know and I definitely am so willing to make it happen! I care that your pet is comfortable and happy with me!!
“Michael was great watching our boy Maverick! Maverick is a 110lb Doberman and Michael did a great job handling him on walks! He was reliable with letting him out 3x per day and making sure Maverick had food and water. Overall, we felt super comfortable with him taking care of our baby while we were out of town! We will definitely be using him again in the future!”
“Kaci is great! We’ve used her a lot to drop in on our dog Roo. She sends cute photos and makes sure Roo gets enough mid-day exercise, along with treats and water. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Hi, I’m Lexi! I have been in the pet industry for about 7 years and I am currently a full time dog groomer, I have always grown up with a huge heart for all animals! I’m a Dog Mama to a Dalmatian and a German Shorthaired pointer! I am a sister to 6 crazy corgis and grew up with many different breeds. I am outgoing, loving, and caring for all animals! I’m currently a full time dog groomer! I work 8:30-4 on a busy day as my schedule can always change! I also work the 2nd Saturday of every month! I have grown up with dogs since I was born!

About: I grew up on a Midwest hobby farm surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, and ducks, so animal care has always been second nature to me. Today, I share my life with a 5-year-old Belgian Malinois who was born blind. If you know Malinois, you know they are high-energy, intensely smart working dogs. You would never guess mine is blind! Raising and training him from a puppy required extra focus on safety, clear communication, and non-judgmental use of training tools, including Herm Sprenger collars and e-collars with vibration cues. Through consistency and patience, he now walks comfortably in a gentle harness with rock-solid basic commands, recall, and search skills. I share this because I truly understand that every dog has unique needs, training levels, and reactivity. You will never be judged here. My top priority is keeping everyone safe and comfortable while respecting the tools and routines that work best for your dog. Why work with me? Special Needs & High-Energy Expertise: From tiny companions to large working breeds, blind or special-needs pets, I have the experience and patience to handle them with care. Flexible WFH Schedule: Working from home means I offer consistent supervision, companionship, and routine adherence throughout the day. Safety & Peace of Mind: I prioritize safety above all else, ensuring your dog gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need without unnecessary stress. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that means training, playing, or relaxing together. Most importantly, I will treat your pets with the exact same love, vigilance, and dedication I give my own! Because I work from home, my schedule is very flexible. I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, meals, playtime, or quiet companionship. I have ample experience caring for pets in their familiar environment. I follow your instructions carefully, keep your home tidy, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From iguanas and hamsters to cats and dogs, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry, scaled, and whiskered companion along the way 🐾 I’ve especially spent most of my life caring for dogs, so understanding their personalities, routines, and needs comes naturally to me. I currently have a 14 year old dog who is truly my pride and joy, and caring for her has only deepened my love and patience for animals. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same attention, affection, and care I give my own. Your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll be genuinely loved 🤍 I work full time (9-5) but in the evenings and Weekends I am free(: so any needs you may have please don’t hesitate to reach out. 😌 Well I’m sure since I can’t provide my own home, that you the owner will let me know any safety hazards or things I would need to know before anything

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Anna Maria
Jennifer was great! She was able to come spend time with our 2 cats Buddy and Howard when our other rover sitter could not come last minute. She took great care of them and her son was also great playing with them and making sure they did not get lonely while we were away. I will definitely be requesting her again as a sitter. I would recommend her !

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 .

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.
