“This was the first time I’ve left my fur babies overnight alone. Stephanie did a great job visiting them and updating me on the visits. She really put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my grandson’s wedding.”
About: I will take great care of your pup! I have a fenced in backyard and a safe neighborhood for walks, allowing your pup to have fun while she/he is missing you! I work from home, allowing me the flexibility to let your pup out for regular potty breaks and go on walks. I’m available for daily pet sitting or overnight pet sitting. We have a fenced in backyard and safe neighborhood for walks. My husband and I have a 4 year-old pup named Tag who loves other dogs— especially if they like to chase him! I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve raised, rescued, fostered, and even foster-failed many dogs in my adulthood. I’m a passionate pet lover! Experienced in puppy training, senior support, & special-needs. I have 6 animals of my own & it would be pawesome to tend to yours. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom! I quit my career early 2025 to care for my two special-needs senior dogs. Unfortunately, they both recently passed within weeks of one another. I now have idle time that provides me with a flexible schedule to fit you and your furbaby’s needs. I currently have 4 dogs, 1 cat, & a critter! All rescues! 2 are dachshunds which are both blind seniors. The other 2 are both medium sized and both are very friendly. My cat Loco is definitely used to dogs and the chaos they can sometimes bring in the house! We have dog beds throughout the house and we even customized our mudroom when we renovated, equipped with their crates and a dog wash station!
About: As a husband and wife team, your pet gets double the love and supervision. We’re attentive, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine the best we can to make them feel comfortable, just like at home My wife Sore works from home, so she’s here most days. You can be at peace knowing your pet(s) will get lots of attention, cuddles, potty breaks, and playtime! We have a big fenced yard for security and a nice deck for sunbathing! There’s plenty of room for exercise, if your pup enjoys the outdoors.
“Madison took amazing care of our pets like they were her own! She was very gentle and loving and took lots of notes and asked lots of questions. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”
About: Ive taken care of the family's animals since I was 8 years old. I have experience with a wide array of animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards and birds. Currently I am the mama to a lovable 145lb English Mastiff and two fabulous felines. I am comfortable walking/caring for/playing with every size doggy! I have a special spot in my heart for kitty cats, having lived with at least one my entire life. I know that pets are truly members of our family and deserve to receive the unconditional love they give to us! I stay at home with my daughters so I am almost always available to care for your fur babies! No job is too early or too late. I will make sure your pet gets well taken care of and well loved! You can expect lots of communication via text updates and photos.
“Olivia was great! Our dog was being a little difficult and timid (which is normal for her with strangers) but Olivia was super helpful and kept in touch asking what she could do to help. She was willing to go above and beyond to make our dog feel comfortable around her. We will definitely use her again if needed.”
“I thoroughly recommend Meredith for drop in visits! She always arrived at the times we discussed and kept up communications with me on my Kittys well-being. I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I have always loved all kinds of dogs, and have been taking care of them as a job since I was in College. Friends and family have entrusted me to wash, feed, walk, watch, and transport their animals and I am excited to expand my skills here on this app! I am currently working a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to watch your sweet pups! I am busiest on Wednesday’s and Sunday’s, but am still available both days with less availability. I work mornings so I am more than available every night/early mornings if needed! I am not able to host dogs in my own home, but am more than happy to spend quality time with your dog in the pleasure and convenience of yours! I love to be outside and love to go on walks, and I am sure your pup is too! I am more than skilled to work with dogs who are prone to getting loose/breaking out of their kennel and am always up for a new learning challenge!
“Kayla did an exceptional job taking care of our dogs and keeping us up-to-date on their behavior and welfare. We had not used a pet-sitting service before and were very happy with the care and enthusiasm Kayla showed on her visits to our home. She followed our instructions to the letter and went above and beyond our expectations in making friends with our dogs. We will definitely use rover.com again, because we know they were much happier at home than confined to a kennel at the veterinary clinic.”
“Joy was so accommodating and helpful to drop in on my dogs while I was on vacation. One of my dogs is very shy and she opened up to Joy! I received updates with every visit as well as pictures. I would definitely book Joy again!”

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.
