“We booked a drop-in visit with Ridge while looking for a sitter for Coco, and after meeting him, we knew we didn't need to look any further. Ridge was attentive, thoughtful, and took the time to listen to all of Coco's needs and quirks. Coco is a very shy dog, and he showed the patience, empathy, and understanding needed to help her feel comfortable. He was calm, professional, and genuinely interested in getting to know her. Finding someone you can trust with your dog is not easy, especially when you have a nervous rescue, but Ridge gave us complete confidence that Coco would be in great hands. We are very happy to have found someone we can trust with our baby girl while we're away and would highly recommend him.”
“Such peace of mind to leave our outside pets in the care of Elizabeth G. We had drop-in visits and received pictures of our animals and other things that documented our requests concerning the care of our outside cats. Elizabeth is thorough and dependable. We highly recommend her!”
“Purrkinje and I love Rebecca!! She was so attentive and caring! She kept me informed, and sent me updates and pictures while I was away. I felt completely at ease with my fur baby in her care!!❤️”
“Hannah did a great job taking care of my kitties!! She even went above and beyond and swept around the litter box and brought in packages for us! She sent me pictures and kept me updated on them as well.”
“Emily took care of our two cats and three birds while we were away, and did a great job! She sent photo updates every day & we could tell the animals were having a good time with her.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was little. My childhood dog passed 2 years ago and my parents recently got a new puppy. I’m an athlete so walks and playing aren’t an issue. I’m a college student studying criminology but I’m completely online with nothing else to do so my availability is very open and flexible just about every day I make sure I'm fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client's home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. For pets that need extra patience, like seniors, I take my time and make sure they feel calm and secure.
“Love Nicole! she very professional and cares for My pets if he was her own. And I love the fact she communicate with you with any problems or concerns you may have and she gets back to you with a sense of urgency! I will definitely recommend her??”
About: I'm Toya, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've had pets my entire life and understand that they are much more than animals; they're family. I currently have three dogs, so I'm very familiar with the daily responsibilities that come with pet care, including feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, providing exercise, and giving pets the attention and affection they deserve. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. Whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, walks, or simply someone to keep them comfortable while you're gone, I'm committed to making sure they receive the best possible care. My pets are a big part of my daily routine. Caring for my three dogs includes feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and making sure they stay healthy and active. Because pet care has always been part of my life, providing consistent, loving care comes naturally to me. I will provide your pet(s) with the same level of care and attention that I give my own. In my clients' homes, I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, playtime, medication, and plenty of companionship. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, reduce stress, and ensure they feel safe while their owners are away.
“Devin was absolutely incredible. This was our first time using a pet sitting service and she put our minds at ease and I could not speak more highly of her. 11/10 stars. We'll be using her again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since early childhood. Between walking, feeding, and playing, I’ve cared for pups since I can remember. I have two mix breed babies at home. I am a writer with an 11 year old child. So taking your pets for a walk would be a nice break in my day! I have a large yard, and two medium sized fur dogs that love to play. I can also keep them separate if need be or even crate.
About: Hi! I’m a loving and responsible pet owner who understands how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. ❤️ I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, and I always make sure to follow their instructions carefully. Whether it’s taking their dog for a walk at a specific time, giving medication, following feeding schedules, or making sure they get plenty of playtime and attention, I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I also have experience with cat drop-ins. I’m happy to visit multiple times a day to feed them, refresh their water, give them attention and playtime, and clean up any messes they may have made. I have an Aussiedoodle of my own who I’ve had for almost three years, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I know how much peace of mind it can bring to receive updates and know that your pet is happy and being well cared for. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and give them the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐶🐱💕 As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am generally available for drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive the care and attention they need. For house sitting, I’m flexible and can discuss arrangements based on your preferences and your pet’s needs. I’ll always communicate with you ahead of time if I have any scheduling or availability concerns so we can make sure everything works well for you and your pets. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they are in caring and responsible hands. I have a fully fenced backyard, which provides a safe space for dogs to get some fresh air, play, and enjoy outdoor time while being supervised. I’ll always follow your preferences and your pet’s usual routine when it comes to outdoor time. I carefully follow all instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs or routines your pet may have. I’ll also keep you updated during visits or stays so you know how your pet is doing. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll take the time to get to know their personality and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and care while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home and belongings with the same respect I would want for my own.
About: I have had many pets my whole life and love working with them. I am great will all breeds and all pets, as well as every age group from puppies to seniors. I currently work part time, and I am available for drop ins throughout week days, in the morning, around lunch, and the evenings.as well as all day drop ins on weekends. I am able to walk your pets and let them out into fences in back yards as well as put them in crates if need be while no one is home, along with feedings and medications.
“I can't say enough nice things about Hannah, she is absolutely amazing! She watched my two elderly cats for two weeks, and did a fantastic job. I absolutely hate leaving them and typically worry the whole time I'm away, but after the meet and greet I knew they would be well cared for and safe. They both liked her immediately which is extremely rare for one of them. That same cat doesn't do well with being left, she's always extremely clingy and lethargic when we return home. This was the very first time, (and she's 13 years old) she seemed happy and unconcerned by our absence! It really showed how comfortable and secure she felt. Hannah is kind, professional, and quick to respond. I'd hire her again in a second!”
“Lilliana was absolutely amazing! Very communicative as she sent me pictures and updates every day. My pups loved her and she went out of her way to make sure they were well taken care of while we were gone. I 10/10 will be requesting her in the future”
“Wonderful sitter! Very loving and kind with our pup and tailored the activities to Sophie’s energy level. Was able to take our last minute request which was quite helpful. We will use again!”
About: About Me 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs since I was just 7 years old! I grew up helping my grandfather care for his hunting dogs, which taught me from an early age how much patience, responsibility, and love goes into caring for animals. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Ozzy, an energetic Australian Kelpie who definitely keeps me on my toes! 🐶💙 I’ve also provided drop-in care for family and friends, caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and give you peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾 I’m currently looking for full-time employment so I have pretty much open availability. My schedule would be open from 9a-230p, M-Fr, time could be shorter depending on location. I can only do drop in care at the moment. I can let them out to potty, take a short walk and/or play in your yard.

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.
