“Anna was great! We loved her and so did our pup. We’re grateful to find a sitter we can trust. She followed his needs and was punctual. Looking forward to her loving on our pup again.”
“Linnea did an amazing job. I needed a last minute sitter to drop in and check on my dogs and she was very communicative, efficient, and caring. She was also very flexible and went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. I appreciate her so much.”
“If you get the chance to book Donna consider yourself lucky! She is one of the kindest and most generous sitters we have ever come across. She watched my two cats twice now. She went above and beyond to make sure my pets were okay. There was a night I was concerned about one of the cats because we didn’t see him for a while on the cat cameras. She headed straight over to ease our concerns, even though it was it was an unplanned visit. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Dana was great with my dog children. She gave regular updates, sent cute photos, and took great care of everything. My home was clean, my kids were happy and relaxed when I got back. I will gladly book again with Dana”
“Victoria took amazing care of Luna while we were gone! We got detailed updates and so many photos. We could tell Luna was thriving. We definitely will be using her again!”
About: Throughout the years, I have had the privilege of caring for a multitude of pets. From energetic and playful youngsters to wise and delicate seniors. I have gained valuable experience in tending to the needs of beloved animals. Rest assured, I am fully equipped to handle all the responsibilities that come with caring for your cherished pet! I currently work from home and am able to care for your pet as if you were home. The most I would be away is for an hour or so. I am fortunate to possess a dog-friendly haven, perfect for leisurely strolls and a large fenced in yard for play! My home is always clean for myself and my guests, regardless of how many legs.
“Tristin was absolutely incredible! From the meet and greet to the last visit she did not disappoint! Highly recommend for any fur baby big or small! She even went an extra mile to feed my 3 fish! She provided me with pictures and videos the entire time as well! Thank you Tristin, until next time!”
“Rachel did an amazing job while doing check in’s for our cat, Dave. Our cat is very social and loves having people around so we worry when we go out of town. We could tell when we got home how much he enjoyed having Rachel come visit, we’re pretty sure he was sad it was us walking in the door and not her. It was such a relief knowing he was well taken care of while we were gone, we will definitely be using Rachel’s services the next time the need arises.”
“Shayla was amazing with my fur-baby! She followed instructions as directed, communicated daily, provided prompt responses, and arrived on-time for scheduled check-ins and walks. For example, my dog is given multi-vitamins twice daily and Shayla followed those instructions. She was flexible with her schedule: as I needed to add check-in services and accommodated my last minute requests. She showed some much love and patience towards my fur-baby during my extended trip with lots of hugs, belly rubs and play, which added the comfort my fur-baby needed. I would highly recommend Shayla to anyone who is seeking someone who is truly passionate about caring for your pet, has excellent communication skills, and is extremely reliable. We look forward to booking Shayla again!!”

To me, pets are not just animals; they are central, beloved members of our families, and they should be treated with utmost respect and love.

My goal is to make life easier for you and happier for your pets. I prioritize transparancy and comfort for you and your furr babies. I will send regular photo updates and give meds, food , water, a walk and playtime or training . I highly encoureage meet and greets beforehand to ensure everyone feels comfortagle and happy. I can give your pet 3 to 4 potty breaks a day depending on what they need. Typically morning, noon , and night. They would be taken out three times around 6-9a , 12-4p, 6-10p again just depends on what your pet is used to. They will be fed at whatever your specified time is. And usually after 6p is all cuddles and play if being boarded in my home. I have a fenced yard, and two friendly dogs of my own. My dogs are crate trained and can be crated if they need to to ensure your pet feels safe in my home.

Nalisha provided excellent service to my two pups while I was away. Communication was top notch and my pups really enjoyed her. I need to add on an additional visit at the last minute and she was able to accommodate me. Thanks Nalisha for all of your help.
Donna was amazing! She was able to get me out of a pickle last minute and for that I am forever thankful. She was very intuitive in asking questions to make sure she properly cared for my babies. She did an amazing job and the zoo was very happy with her and greeted her every day. To include my most skiddish cat!! Thank you Donna! I look forward to having you back!
Gabriela was awesome! She took great care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures and messages the whole time. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Amanda was great with our two Cats. One of our cats went into hiding at the end of our trip and Amanda stayed lingering just to make sure she got eyes on the cat before leaving. The cats and our house were left exactly as we left it, clean and happy. Thank you Amanda for the great job.
Allee was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my cat and made the whole experience stress-free. She was dependable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious she genuinely cared about my cat and made sure she felt comfortable and loved. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Allee to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter. I’ll definitely book with her again!
It was my first time using Abbi and she was fantastic!!! Before hand and during the she was very communicative with pictures and text! Love her personality- easy going and easy to talk to! She gets it! Obsessed pet moms, I mean… That counts… lol. One of my pups was a handful and she sat patiently to allow Gigi to warm up to her. I really believe she cares and it shows! Definitely recommend her!! Look forward to having her with my fur babies next time!!

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 .

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 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.
