“Joe was fantastic! He came over to the house before we left to meet my kitty and discuss her care, which was really nice. Joe was very concerned about her well-being while we were gone and kept us posted with pictures and texts. I would be extremely comfortable leaving Juniper with Joe again.”
“Vicki was excellent with my senior dog! She was available last minute and took her time taking care of my Mitski. She was so calm and peaceful when I got home. We will definitely be using Vicki's services again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for our dog. From the very first meeting, it was clear how much love and professionalism she brings to her work. She was attentive, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup was happy, safe, and cared for. We especially appreciated the updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It’s such a relief knowing our dog was in such good hands. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly devoted to animals. She’s simply the best!”
About: I've cared for many cats and dogs, from pit bulls to terriers to English bulldogs. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and oral medication administration. I'm a patient and compassionate pet owner, and I promise to treat your fur babies with the same love and care I would my own. I'm also a graduate music student in case your pet might want to be serenaded by a french horn :) I'm a musician and graduate student at Bard. My schedule changes quite a bit, but I always have a good idea of what my schedule will look well in advance. In addition, I am generally free most mornings, and can often be flexible. I'm very happy to provide your dog(s) with walks, food, brushing, bathing, and medication. I love to play fetch with dogs, go on walks or hikes, visit dog parks, cuddle, practice tricks, or any other enriching activity. With cats, I love to cuddle, play, and practice or try new tricks with treats.
“Lilly was absolutely amazing! From the moment my pup met her, he fell in love with her! And I could tell she treated him so well while we were gone! She kept in great contact and sent plenty of pictures of my boy to keep my mind at ease while I was away! I even had a slight panic one night with my pup, and she went above and beyond to help! I highly recommend her!!”
About: My family owned a ruby Cavalier King Charles for 13 years. I have experience with basic pet needs and responsibilities, and understand how to take behavior queues when animals show a desire for a need. I’m a recent college graduate who attended Bard College in upstate NY. I recently relocated to Jersey City and am applying to full time roles. My schedule is relatively flexible, but please reach out for exact availability. I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure leash grip and using pet-safe paths to prevent any potential hazards during walks. This includes avoiding busy streets or areas with potential risks to pets. Secondly, building trust with both the pets and their owners is important. I take time to understand each dog's needs and preferences to ensure they feel comfortable on their walk. Clear communication with pet owners before, during, and after the walk helps maintain transparency and trust. Furthermore, creating a pet-friendly environment involves being mindful of the surroundings and ensuring a positive experience for the dog. This includes providing opportunities for exercise and bathroom breaks, while also being attentive to any signs of getting tired or uncomfortable. By prioritizing safety, trust, and a pet-friendly environment, I aim to provide reliable and caring dog walking services that enhance the well-being of pets in both my home and my clients' homes.
About: I have worked a lot with both ends of the spectrum in terms of activity: I enjoy sleepy dogs as well as hounds. I have a Hungarian Vizsla back home, who is essentially a hunting dog—and I enjoy seeing her tired at the end of the day. Currently, my main occupation is writing a senior thesis. I do that successfully in between and around pet-sitting gigs. I only have three classes a week, so taking care of dogs and cats is a perfect commitment that I love to pursue At my client's houses, I make sure to maintain a safe environment in which pets do not come into contact with anything or anyone that poses even the slightest risk to their health and well-being.
“Shelby came through to help us with our dogs last minute and did an excellent job. The dogs got better walks with her than they're used to! So sweet and communicative and prompt. I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: My care for animals is rooted in my nature. I have spent 28 years loving and caring for dogs, cats, and livestock like sheep and goats. I currently volunteer at the Ulster County SPCA weekly doing dog and cat socialization. I bring genuine passion, care, and patience to each pet that is in my care. I am available for pet visits and walks from 6am to 11am and 8:30pm to 10:30pm during the week. My availability on the weekends is much more flexible. Let’s chat and come up with a plan. With over two decades of animal experience, I know that trust is earned, not assumed. I take time to read each pet’s cues, honor their boundaries, and follow your established routines. Your home environment stays calm and consistent, your dog’s walk stays safe and controlled, and your cat always has the space they need to feel secure.
“Incredible rovers and people! Amanda and her husband went above and beyond with our puppy Rory. Couldn't have asked for a better duo to take care of her - meeting her beforehand, giving her love and attention, endless photos, cuddles and happiness. Ten out of ten recommendation for anyone in the Woodstock / Kingston area.”
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and have always loved to bond with animals. I also have a reactive dog so I have lots of experience handling dogs that need more specialized treatment. I’m currently working from home so it opens up my schedule more to help any animals who need a walk, a visit, or anything else! I would to come to your home where your pet is comfortable and provide the care they need. It’s important for them to connect with me in an environment that’s positive.
About: I have 15 years of experience providing reliable, loving pet care for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even alpacas. I specialize in overnight house sitting, where I stay at your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their own environment. I offer two levels overnight/house-stay care: • Standard House Sitting – I stay overnight and handle all morning and evening care. I’m usually able to step out for a few hours during the day. • Full-Day Presence – I stay at your home for most or all of the day in addition to overnight care. This option is priced higher to reflect the increased time commitment and is ideal for puppies, seniors, anxious pets, or when you prefer someone present the majority of the time. I have personal experience with special-needs dogs and am comfortable administering medication, caring for senior pets, and giving extra patience when needed. I’m available 24/7 and always send photo and video updates throughout the stay so you know your pets are doing well. I truly love animals and treat every pet like my own. If you’re looking for dependable overnight care with the option for more daytime presence when needed, I’d be happy to help. I am currently free 24/7 365 days! I am available for any and all pet needs! I am able to provide walks and stay at any home needed! I have a nice single bedroom apartment! The rail trail is close to me so I can walk them along that for nice outside exercise. There is lots of love to be shared!
“Sofia and her husband Arsen did a wonderful job looking after my 5 cats. One of them is a very high maintenance rescued Himalayan. His coat looked better than it did when I left and his eyes were well cleaned. The other four were happy and well fed.”

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
