“Ashley was fantastic. I have a shedding and slobber hanging St Bernard Yogi. I knew she was the one for us when she didn't mind at all when he got her clothes covered in dog hair when she came for the initial meet amd greet. She came and checked on our to pets while we were gone on vacation. It was comforting to know that someone who didnt mind all the fur and slobber was there for them while we were gone. Thank you again for watching them. Michelle”

About: I’ve been around pets ever since I can remember and have always had at least 1 dog if not 2. I find genuine joy in spending time with animals and would love nothing more than to spoil your babies like my own! I work your normal M-F 8-5 so through the week I could do early morning and evening visits. On the weekends I can do sporadic visits through the day. I haven’t met a dog I don’t love. I will treat them as if they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of loves and mental stimulation!

“We used Gracie for drop in visits while we were out of town. Gracie took care of our babies so well! She won them over from barking at her when she first came, to them being excited to see her and let her sit and pet and them. She was very punctual on the times we chose for drop ins and she sent such sweet pictures of them and gave wonderful descriptions of her visits.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Dogs have always been part of my family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I work from home full-time, which means your pup will have plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and outdoor breaks throughout the day — not long stretches alone. My home is in a quiet rural town with a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax. I love getting to know each dog’s personality, routines, and comfort needs so they feel right at home here. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers naps and cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive patient, loving care and lots of affection. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind with updates, photos, and dependable communication during their stay. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I work from home and have been a lifelong dog owner. Pets get plenty of attention, outdoor time, playtime in my fenced yard, regular potty breaks, and lots of affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, comfortable environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I provide dogs a safe, secure place to be themselves with personal attention and mindful consideration of their needs. Because I have dogs of my own, any visiting dog will have playmates and socialization throughout their stay.

About: Growing up in the country, I’ve had years with our dogs, cats and many other animals! Raising and wrangling 3 puppies from the shelter, we had them all 13 years. We had cats from birth to grave, and cared for them inside, outside and in the barn! I love to care for your pups and kitties, now that I don’t have any of my own. I keep our home and little one alive and well, and love to add a dog to our daily walks! I’m flexible during the morning+afternoon, and available some Saturdays as well. Although we don’t have space for our own pup right now, I love to come make sure your pups are well taken care of! I’d love to help, whether it’s just a check in and friendly pat, or a walk and belly rub!

About: I keep water out all day so they are not thirsty. I feed my dogs once in the morning and then before bed. I take them put multiple times a day either to potty or play but they are always on the leash. I play with them inside also. I'm a big cuddler with pets if the animal will allow me haha. They are allowed on furniture bed or couch does not matter. My daughter is a big animal person too she loves both dogs and cats and will sit there and watch TV with them or even fall asleep on them haha. I have had 6 years of personal experience with animals they have not be consecutively but all together it has been 6 years. Im a stay at home mom so im pretty available aside from the random appointments. I have 3 kids that all love animals and always want to play with our own animals or help feed and water them. They want to be the ones to let them out to potty and feed them. I have a big fenced in yard for the dogs and kids to play and run in. They are allowed on furniture so we all cuddle up on the furniture. I also have some dog toys. I can offer a separate space for those dogs that want to me alone.

About: I worked at Summit Pet Care for four years. I worked in the daycare, front desk, and kennels department. I have made valuable relationships with several clients. For those clients I have pet sat for them while they have been out of town. I have also walked many of their pups during a busy for them. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the rest of the week make time to exercise my own dog. Along with getting online classes done for UCM.. I care for my pets by always getting them with a clam but happy energy. First thing I always do with any pup is take them outside making sure there are no accidents in the home. If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.

About: Throughout my life, I've been deeply immersed in caring for animals, particularly dogs and more recently, cats. Growing up, dogs have been a constant presence in my household, from nurturing puppies to tenderly supporting elderly dogs in their final stages. This journey included responsibilities like changing diapers and ensuring their comfort, reflecting my commitment to their well-being throughout their lives. Seven years ago, I expanded my animal family by welcoming my first cat into our home, a decision that has enriched my life beyond measure. Currently, I share my home with two cats and a lively two-year-old dog, each bringing their unique joy and companionship. When it comes to caring for animals, my approach varies based on their needs. For elderly dogs and all cats, I prioritize providing them comfort and support in their own familiar environment, ensuring their days arr still filled with love and care. On the other hand, for dogs that still revel in the company of their peers and enjoy playtime, I eagerly open my doors to host them, providing a safe and welcoming environment. Overall, my experience with animals has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and adaptability in meeting their diverse needs. It's a privilege to share my life with these wonderful creatures and to provide them with the care and love they deserve. I work from home most days, and so does my partner. I can ensure there is continued care and commitment offered to your furry companion. In your own home, I can work to ensure the same routine your furry companion is used to is maintained. In my home, they will have the opportunity to play with my in house dog, visit the dog park every afternoon, with a long evening walk, and short walks throughout the workday.

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 Rover Guarantee , 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 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.
