“Leanissa is great! Always leaves a lot of pictures and details about her time with Teddy. Her response time is quick. She does great with Teddy, making sure he goes potty and giving him lots of cuddles so he’s not sad when she leaves. I would highly recommend booking her!”

About: Hello! My name is Hannah and my Husband’s is Jacob! Together we will be watching and caring for your pets! I have been taking care of various animals basically the entirety of my life. Growing up we raised 13 German Shepherds! I graduated from a Christian high school and have graduated with a bachelors in Biology. In the past I worked at a doggy daycare watching and monitoring roughly 100 dogs a day. I have been certified in pet CPR and first aid. I also am certified in dog handling and working in a daycare environment. Now I work for a local mobile grooming company ! I have been petsitting for the past several years and am currently trying to start up and operate my own business. Animals are my passion and my family ❤️ With me I can assure you’ll have pictures and updates! During go home times either I or Jacob will be there to see you off! Sometimes as life is hectic he takes over the go homes so you can be reunited with your best friend as quickly as possible and so it’s more convenient on you! If you’re uncomfortable with this arrangement please let me know and we may have to work out a later arrangement! I currently work part time three days a week! I am most available on the Friday and Saturday ! On Sundays I have a hectic schedule. Most of my time I spend outdoors playing with the dogs or doing yard work so their is plenty of romping and play for your dogs! I have a completely fenced in yard with 4 friendly pups to keep your dogs company. Don’t fret while all the dogs are out together they will be under supervision to make sure that no disagreements happen! Safety comes first then of course cuddles and play! We do have various farm animals as we are making our own little homestead to be more self sufficient. All dogs are heavily monitored to protect the safety of all animals and hasn’t been a issue but just so we can make you aware before dropping off.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was in middle school. For four years, I assisted in end-of-life care for a senior dog along with being a farmhand for two horses. My previous job in Florida was at an animal shelter, and consisted of feeding, cleaning, and medicating up to 40 kittens/cats/dogs a day. I am available any time, any day of the week. I’m currently job searching for a position at a shelter, so in the meantime I would love to meet your animals and make friends! I live in an apartment with my partner and two kittens. I feed them twice a day, with a capsule of Proviable split between them. They are strictly indoor kitties, and I have given them both a flea bath.

About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a dedicated animal lover and an experienced veterinary technician who understands that your pets are family. Working in veterinary medicine has given me hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including seniors, puppies, kittens, and pets with medical needs. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or simply someone to give them extra love while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine and behavior, and I’m comfortable administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and handling unexpected situations calmly. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your furry family members with someone you can trust. I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! I can stop by before 8:00 am and after 3:00 pm on Saturday. I don’t work a set schedule so my availability will stay up to date. I will always try to work you in. I have a super friendly dogs and 3 cats that been around dogs many times. Your dog will get lots of outside time and walks at a trail near my house. Also will be able to provide enrichment for other animals.

“We left our cat, Moses, in Aaron’s care for 31 days. When we returned, Moses was well fed and well hydrated. Now that we are back home, I think Moses misses Aaron more than missed us! 😊 Aaron not only cared for our cat, he provided kindness and love. I could tell from the photos Aaron sent after every visit that Moses was comfortable being around him. Thank you Aaron, we will 100% contact when we leave for our next extended vacation.”

“Kelly was AMAZING!!! Her timing was prompt & she went above and beyond my expectations. Working long shifts in healthcare leaves me so stressed knowing my furbabies are at home alone & knowing they got such good care from Kelly was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Seriously, I can’t thank her enough. For taking the extra time to walk her, making sure she got multiple potty opportunities, and the photo updates. Highly recommend 🤩”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! I grew up with two dogs and have spent years pet sitting and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every pup feels happy and comfortable while their humans are away. I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I love spending my free time outdoors and would be excited to have a furry companion join me! I’m happy to welcome dogs into my apartment and provide a comfortable, safe, and relaxed home away from home. Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while they’re staying with me. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel right at home!

About: After breeding for 12 years, I want to continue my love of pets with working. I have worked with multiple breeds and have trained in the past. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time on my hands to give your babies the extra care and love they need while you’re gone. Although we don’t have a fenced yard, our backyard is large and we will do multiple walks a day, to make sure your pup is happy and gets all the exercise they 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 .

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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
