About: My family always had a pet dog. As a kid I would feed and walk dogs in the neighborhood while they were out of town. As I grew older I would stay at family or friend's homes if they went out of town. I'm in search of a similar situation in South Bend - dog walking and light housework included! Weekdays I can stop in and let the dog(s) out for bathroom breaks. On weekends/evenings I can stay at your home so that the dog is familiar and will make myself available 100% during that time. I prefer to stay or drop in to my client's home. I find that the dog is more familiar/comfortable this way too. I am happy to do a test run so that everyone feels comfortable/familiar!

She truly cares about our babies (two Siberian huskies), gets their exercise in & shows them all the love. We 100% trust her with them and our home. People like her are hard to find. She is now our go-to-gal for helping us with our dogs! We are so lucky we found her.”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, and following each dog's normal routine and care instructions. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they're in my care, while also giving you peace of mind knowing they're being well taken care of. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust to each pet's normal routine and needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone around to make them feel comfortable and cared for while they're away from home. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for someone else's pet. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable in a new environment. I want every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.

About: I've had pets since I was a kid and I'm a huge animal lover — the go-to person for pet care among family and friends. I currently have three cats of my own, so I'm very comfortable in multi-cat households — reading their individual personalities, sticking to feeding schedules, and keeping stress low when routines change. My biggest test was house-sitting for a neighbor for a full week, managing 4 dogs and 3 cats at once — juggling different feeding times and exercise needs without missing a beat. I'm calm under pressure, detail-oriented with instructions, and treat every home with respect and care as if it were my own. I work full-time (9–5), so I'm available for in-home visits, dog walking, and in-home overnight care before work, after work, and all weekend. I'm also an early riser, so morning visits work well too. I'm flexible and can accommodate most feeding, play, or walk schedules around my job. I live in an apartment set up specifically with cats in mind — window perches, a self-cleaning litter box, and a wall-mounted cat jungle gym with climbing shelves and hideaways. My own cat Milo also enjoys supervised leash walks outside, so I'm comfortable and experienced with that if your cat is leash-trained too. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first, whether that means sticking closely to their routine or just giving them space to settle in. While cats are my specialty, I also have real dog experience — I've taken dogs outside to play in open spaces, and I know how to walk them confidently and keep them engaged. I once house-sat for a neighbor for a full week, caring for 4 dogs and 3 cats together. I'm also not afraid to set boundaries when needed, so your dog gets both playtime and structure.

About: Your pet is welcome in my home! They will get lots of TLC, play time, feeding, walking & love. My house is small but live on 2 acres in the country. My yard is not fenced so I walk your pets on a leash & there are trails in the woods where they love to walk too. I also have a tie out if they dont do well on a leash & some are fine to free roam but they are never left unattended. I can take 2 small to medium dogs or 2 large or 1 giant dog. I will also transport your pet(s) to & from your home if needed. This will be an additional fee. I have been professionally petsitting for the past 17 years. References are supplied upon request. Any cancellation less than 7 days before stay begins will result in no refund provided.

About: I’m a lifelong dog dad who’s raised everything from tiny puppies to wild, energetic corgis and a sweet Aussie doodle. My wife and I currently have both, so I’m very used to high-energy breeds, stubborn personalities, and dogs who need structure, patience, and plenty of play. I’ve also cared for our senior dog through physical therapy, mobility support, and daily medication management, so I’m comfortable with dogs who need extra attention or special routines. Over the years, I’ve trained multiple dogs to behave reliably off‑leash, and I take pride in helping dogs feel confident, safe, and understood. I’m home full‑time right now, supporting my wife’s business and caring for our own pups, which means I’m flexible, responsible, and able to give your dog the kind of consistent, attentive care that makes them feel right at home. I’m also happy to care for cats with the same patience and attention I give dogs. We have two cats of our own with completely different personalities, so I’m comfortable with shy, independent cats as well as social, curious ones. I understand their routines, boundaries, and quirks, and I make sure they feel safe, respected, and cared for while you’re away. I’m home full‑time right now, caring for our dogs and supporting my wife’s business, so my schedule is very flexible throughout the day. I just ask for at least a day’s notice so I can plan around our home routine, but once scheduled, I’m able to give your pets consistent attention and care. Even though I’m home most of the time, I can be out for a couple of hours when needed, and I’m comfortable coordinating visits, walks, or drop‑ins around that. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while keeping communication clear and easy. Your pet’s safety is always my first priority. I keep a calm, structured home where routines are followed, boundaries are respected, and every animal gets the attention they need to feel secure. I’m experienced with puppies, high‑energy dogs, seniors who need extra support, and cats with all kinds of personalities, so I’m comfortable adjusting care to match each pet’s needs. I maintain a clean, pet‑friendly environment with safe spaces for resting, supervised play, and outdoor time when appropriate. I’m reliable, communicative, and always mindful of each pet’s comfort level. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, or just a steady, reassuring presence, I make sure they’re cared for with consistency, respect, and genuine love.

“Carly was a great cat sitter for Crystal! 😊 She kept me updated during each visit with pictures and videos, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. She was patient and sweet with Crystal, and I was so happy to hear that Crystal warmed up to her 🤍 Thank you again, Carly, for taking good care of our baby!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of responsibility, patience, and attention I bring to caring for someone else’s pet. My background in the Armed Service has taught me to be dependable, punctual, and attentive to details, but I also understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I take the time to learn those little things rather than treating pet care as simply feeding and walking. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, stubborn, or just wants some company, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet—and your home—with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I will be the one and only caretaker for your pet, should you ever require it. Our goal is to keep our girl, Rya, active and happy with walks every morning, afternoon, and evening—with the occasional midnight adventure! Since we currently live in an apartment, regular walks are an important part of our daily routine, giving us plenty of steps while making sure she gets the exercise and stimulation she needs. We always come prepared with water, treats, and dog bags whenever necessary, and we’d provide the same level of care and attention to any pet entrusted to us. To ensure building safety, trust, and a positive environment, I am open to receiving feedback from the owner about each of their pets' schedules or rules they are accustomed to, and to providing care and supervision when the clients are not present.

About: I have been caring for pets for a long time! I am very familiar with alarms and enjoy caring for other people’s pets! Nothing scares me. Not even 4 litter boxes. I am the kind of person who does it all. I’m commonly baking or gardening, but will always make time in my life to care for pets! They love us no matter what so they deserve lots of love! I am familiar with alarms and comfortable with cameras. I try to treat everyone’s home with respect and clean up after myself. Pet care can get messy but I’ll find the paper towels and clean up, don’t worry!

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.
