“Today was Mary’s 12th visit with Hank!! She’s amazing and I feel so relieved finding someone I can trust with him. I work long days and go out of town with no stress. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I have taken of cats dogs goats birds for most of my life and 4 legged critters are the love of my life . I enjoy I am retired and have lots of time for pet care. I can do overnites and drop ins for any pet needs. I love walking dogs. I would go pet owners home and provide feeding walking and companionship . I will always have pets on leash and constant supervision at all times .
“I was exciting after meeting with Olivia to be able to have her visit with my little frenchie, Kailani. Kailani loved seeing her in meet up day. Olivia is very attentive and I can’t wait to request her again! Thank you so much! 😊”
“We were very pleased with how Lindsey took care of our little fur family while we were out of town. It gave us peace of mind that our pets that had medication to take were handled with care. She was timely and easy to communicate with, and took lots of pics of the gang while we were out. We will definitely be using her services again in the future 😊”
“This was the first time having Baily visit with my sweet girl, Kailani (French Bulldog) and Kailani was so excited to see her again since the meet and greet we did. Thank you Baily for making sure Kailani had fun and was taken care of while I was away today!”
“Colin was fantastic and helped us out when we needed a last minute sitter for our dog Oakley. He took great care of him and our minds were at ease knowing Oakley was in good hands while we were away.”
About: I have 5+ years of experience with both drop-in walking and live-in pet sitting services for dogs and cats. I’m here to help for puppies/kittens up to your senior furry friends. Big plus with me - I work remotely, so you’ll never have to worry about your pet spending too much time alone. I work remote from home so my schedule revolves around your furry friends! I love taking walks during my work day breaks and seeing the city. I will happily house sit as well as pet sit! I’m not just there for your pets. I’ll water plants, bring in mail, keep it clean - all the things you need while you’re away.
About: I’ve been an animal person for as long as I can remember! My first dog, Lady, came into my life when I was six, and I’ve had two dogs and five cats over the years. These days, I’m outnumbered by four-legged family members with one dog and three cats of my own. 😂 I’m happy to keep up with your pet’s normal routine, whether that means walks, playtime, meals, litter boxes, medication, or just hanging out and keeping them company. I’m also very patient and understand that not every pet immediately thinks a stranger is their new best friend. No pressure! I’ll let them warm up to me at their own pace. Most importantly, I know pets aren’t “just pets.” They’re family. I’ll take care of yours with the same love, attention, and ridiculous amount of picture-taking that I give my own. 🐾❤️ I work from home managing my own business, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and am usually around throughout the day. Aside from school drop-off/pick-up and the occasional appointment or errand, I’m able to work my schedule around your pet’s needs. That means I can give them plenty of attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for hours at a time. Whether they need a midday walk, some playtime, a potty break, meals, or just some company while you’re away, I can usually make it work. Since I’ll be caring for pets in their own homes, my goal is to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, treats, medications, walks, and anything else you’ve asked me to do. I’ll send a picture update each time I visit so you know your pets are doing well, and I’ll let you know if I notice anything unusual or anything that seems off. I’ll also make sure doors are secure, food and water are taken care of, and everything is left the way I found it. Most importantly, I want you to be able to relax while you’re away knowing your pets are getting the care, attention, and love they’re used to.
“Katie helped me with my two dogs while I was out of town. We did drop in visits and Katie did great! She followed instructions well, communicated with me and sent me pictures of the doggies. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
About: I'm a professional and responsible caretaker of 25 years now, of dogs, cats, children, the elderly and residential family homes as well as commercial properties, and I love it more with each passing year! I am a personable and energetic companion, with an infinite amount of love for all animals. There's nothing that I'm unable to do and no job too big or too small. I value this opportunity to be your best friend's home away from home and give them all of the love that you would give to them, because they deserve it and so do you! It such a rewarding and touching experience to enjoy the same animals loving me more and more over time, and eventually just being affectionate as can be! I love knowing that I can send you pictures(as often as you'd like) of your fur baby, giving you relief and knowing that not only is your dog safe and nurtured, but happy and loved! I've always said that I just want to cuddle with dogs all day and still pay my bills haha. Although I was mostly joking, how amazing is it that I can actually make that dream a reality!!😻 Maybe mans' best friend but your dog is also my best friend too...if you could please just help to introduce us to each other. Thank you for your consideration Best Kelly I am fully open and available for any booking, for any period of time, for any amount of pets! The more animals I get to see in a day, the better! I treat every animal as if they were my own child! It's hard enough to be away from their parents at all, so I am just as positive, affectionate, loving and comforting as I can possibly be, so your pets feel comfortable and at peace. I communicate with the pet and/ or homeowner to find out exactly what they expect from me, and always write down all of the specifics of animal care(food & water and frequency, medicines, restrictions, if they go outside or stay inside, things they like or find comfort in like their favorite toy or treat to ensure that feel as much at home as I can make them feel) so I don't forget anything important! I usually reread the list everyday that I'm there, just to be sure not to miss anything. Lastly I always spend the last hour or day cleaning up after myself & the pet, to leave things nicer than I found them. Whether it's taking their trashcan to the road and gathering their mail, along with washing their dishes and making sure the bathroom and kitchen are nice & clean for them to come home to. Or it could be giving the dog a bath if I'm not house sitting as well. Basically if you're going to pay me to do something, I'm going to make it worth your while and be as helpful, clean and efficient as possible! Just a basic rundown in addition to feeding and walking and picking up after said animal, I like to go above and beyond what is expected of me. I reach for the best customer service I can possibly provide, to hopefully create a very happy dog and parents, as well as a repeat customer! If you hire me, you will not regret it! Thank you for your consideration -Kelly

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.
