“Natalie was awesome and really helped me out with a last minute booking after there was a scheduling conflict with my current sitter. She was very patient with my (very) timid rescue and went above and beyond to give some extra love to my older pup who was also home and didn’t require care. Will 100% book her in the future!”
About: !! NEW CLIENTS 10% OFF 1st BOOKING !! I've been a Veterinary Assistant for 3 years and have been involved with animals for even longer. I have extensive experience in all sizes of dogs, from Chiweenies to Mastiffs. And experience from rasing puppies and kittens to caring for my cutie geriatric patients. . I also have experience caring for reptiles, small(er) mammals, birds, and even horses! . I am very confident in my ability to read your animals behavior and translate it into the words they can't say. My hours are pretty flexible at the moment as I work from 10-6 and am free on weekends! I'd love to squeeze in some time with some cuddly faces before and after that! I can medicate your babies as needed and make sure they're getting enriched while their parents are away! Can walk and play and ensure their food is fresh for the picking!
“Dasha always takes such great care of our boy, Noodle. She looks out for his well being and keeps him entertained while we're gone. She is so prompt, reliable, and communicative. We're so lucky to have found her!”

About: I have always had dogs and currently have bunnies too. I volunteer one morning a week at the animal shelter when I'm physically able. I have trained six of my own. Also enjoy creating enrichment and providing interaction for those who benefit from it. Happy to give your pets company for a short while. I am available to do drop-ins for up to an hour or two in the mornings or early afternoons including a potty break. Depending on the dog and the day, longer walks may be available. Dependent on demeanor, I can provide company outside or inside with as much attention requested, a short walk, or play session. Automatically thresholds will be respected for exposure to triggers. On-leash will include practicing loose-leash walking, lots of sniffing, and some impulse control. Play will include the toys and/or treats provided at the pups home.
“Kiley was great for out drop in visits with our cat while we were away. She was easy to communicate with, and made sure that she gave our cat lots of attention while she was there.”
“Danielle B. Was a great pet caregiver. She worked with me on the price (I mean 7 dogs and 2 cats is ridiculous!). She even checked on my 14 chickens and updated me on everything. I appreciated the communication and her trying to troubleshoot the chicken coop door that didn't open automatically. My pet dynamic is challenging but she tackled it like a pro. She even offered to do a split shift so my pets could be let out twice instead of once during my 12 hour shift. I felt they were safe and taken care of. I will definitely use Danielle in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Emily watched over my 4 month old pup, who can have a lot of energy at times. She was very communicative and professional. She was very accommodating to my dog’s needs and he was well taken care of. I’d highly recommend Emily to watch your pup :).”
“Charlene was great with our two cats. She took care of all our kitty needs while we were away and even spent time playing with them. It was everything we wanted and needed for the two of them! Thank you Charlene❤️”
“Linda popped in to let my pups out for a mid-day potty break. She arrived when she said she would, sent pics of the girls while they were out and locked up when she left. I’ll definitely reach out in the future when a need someone to check on the fur babies.”
“We have 10 year old cats that we’ve had lots of different caretakers for over the years. Jeremy is easily the best we’ve ever had. He showed up on time, fed them properly, cleaned their litter box, and ever cleaned their water bowl while we were out of town. He was so kind and communicative. I would recommend him to anyone. It’s such a relief to find someone who is reliable and punctual!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve owned everything from dogs, cats, rodents, birds and insects over the years. I’ve been a volunteer at pet rescues over the years and have an extra-special fondness for pets in their golden years. I’ve done a lot of pet sitting over the years, which has included everything from walks, baths and play to administering medication and cleaning up accidents - there isn’t a lot that phases me. I treat each pet like I would my own, giving them the same love, care and attention they get from their family. I look forward to doing the same for yours 😊 I work from home during the week with a flexible schedule which allows me the opportunity to care for pets during the day - whether it’s for a walk, a check-in for a potty break, or even just for some cuddles and play. My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible, which means I’m happy to follow whatever routine it is that you have set. Does Max need their food heated up to a specific temperature so they’ll eat it? Done. Does Gabby need to be crated? No problem. All pets are unique, so their needs can be too. I always go over routines and preferences with parents to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I know when I have entrusted my pet to someone else I love getting pictures, so you can rest assured if you do too I will send them as much as you want! You are also always welcome to ask for them anytime, no matter how often. As your pets wellbeing is my priority, I can ensure my focus is 100% on them when we’re together.
About: I grew up with dogs and while I don’t have any now my sister has two dogs. They are a german shepherd and a golden retriever so I know how to handle bigger dogs. I often take them on walks, play fetch, and dog sit while they are away. I’m currently working part time Monday- Wednesday so I am free the rest of the week and most weekends for pet care. I try to do all pet care during the day that way i’m not in unfamiliar places at night. I have a fenced in back yard so if needed I can keep your pets safe. However I do have two cats that also go outside so they would have to be cat friendly.
About: Being a professional dog trainer, I have experience handling dogs of all temperments. My training background also helps me understand cat behavior and body language. I also have experience with a variety of reptiles, fish, and amphibians. I provide safe, structured care tailored to your pet's needs, helping reinforce good habits and reduce stress while you are away. I am available Monday through Friday to do 1 to 3 drop-ins a day. Each drop-in will be 30-minutes long to ensure your pet's needs are met. During a 30-minute drop-in visit, I'll provide fresh water, food (if needed), a potty break or short walk, playtime, and basic enrichment to keep your dog happy and stimulated. I'll also check for any signs of stress or discomfort and send you a quick update with photos. Every visit is tailored to your pet's routine and needs.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
