“Lissi is a wonderful sitter! She took care of our senior pup like her own for 2 weeks while we were away. Our pup loves her and so comfortable with her. She’s punctual and did everything written on the care instructions. She sent us updated pictures and videos throughout the drop-in which we really appreciated. Whenever we have a trip next time, we would definitely book her again. Thank you”
About: I adopted a dog when I was 8, a pomeranian, took care of it and raised it since he was 1 month old. Now I don't have access to him since we moved out, someone else adopted him because we didn't have the ability to keep him. Them adopted other two puppies, huskies, the same story happened as we tend to move a lot. 1 year ago I adopted a frenchie and currently raising it, on a healthy 24 pounds and very active and energic, trying to work on his hyperactivity so I won't be able to take him with me if requested. I'm a Uber driver, so I would always be able to attend any reservations outside of this times: ●Monday to Friday 11:30am - 2:30 pm, 5:30pm - 6:30 pm. ●Weekends negotiable, standard would be 11 am to 3 pm. I feed mine twice a day, depending on activity of the day I might rise the amount he eats just a little to make up for it. Then daily training of 10- 30 minutes with split treats to not over feed.
“Adriana T. was FANTASTIC. Our 1 cat & 4 foster cats were very well taken care of! Adriana T. is a detailed person who also is a problem solver. Our usually shy cat took to Adriana and was so happy and energized to see her! She was very thorough and also provided a great log and pictures too! I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND ADRIANA T.”
“Grisel was great at communicating & being there for our dog while we were away for a couple days. There was a little bit of some confusion with being able to get into our home because of the smart lock but that was resolved fairly quickly. Our dog seemed to enjoy her time with Grisel as well. Will rebook again”
“This was our first time using Rover and meeting Stefanie. Our kitties who are normally shy with other people took a liking to her really quickly. Stefanie was really thorough in making sure that she had all the information she would need while we were gone, and it was clear from her daily Rover Cards and communication that she really cared about taking great care of our kitties. We will definitely look for Stefanie the next time we need a pet sitter!”
“I would be asking her again when I need help. She was wonderful. I had many requests during a one hour visit and she did everything! My baby also seemed she had a good time with her. Thank you!”
“Mariah did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Raisin, while my family and I were on vacation. Raisin can be a bit shy at first, but Mariah took the time to make her feel comfortable and gave her all the love and attention she needed. She kept us updated with regular messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I could tell Raisin was well-cared for because she was happy and calm when we got home. Mariah went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you, Mariah! Would definitely book with you again in the future!”
About: When I was born my family already had 2 cats and 2 dogs. Once they passed we got two more cats and 2 more dogs. Since then we’ve gotten a few more cats that were strays and needed a home. I love to care for pets because they’re always there when I need them. I work part-time so it is easy for me to find time to care for animals. It’s something I’m passionate about and I want to help out as much as I can. We have a pretty spacious backyard where our dogs can run around. We keep all of our cats inside due to losing a couple in the past to some tragic outside accidents.
“Angela does so great with my dogs. She updates me all the time and keeps my dogs happy. This is the second time Angela has taken care of my dogs and I will continue having her take care of my dogs.”

Your pet or loved one will be in safe hands with me. I will also do my best in making your love one feel comfortable and loved when your at work or on vacation and can not bring them with you. If you have a very active pet it is fine with me and if you do not that’s fine with me too.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Artesia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Haleigh was absolutely wonderful! She came to my home while I was out of town to check on my two cats and my dog, and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable having her there. She made sure all of my pets were fed and taken care of, and she even cleaned up the messes they made while I was gone. 🐶🐱🐱 It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies and my home were in good hands. Haleigh was dependable, caring, and respectful of my home. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their pets! ❤️
Bronte was great and very understanding. My cats spent most of her visits hiding because she's new and they don't know her. But Malí eventually ventured out and decided Bronte was ok. Hopefully Malí will tell Felis and he'll come out of hiding next time. Thanks, Bronte!
Emily took such wonderful care of our pets! We were especially worried because one of our dogs is a senior, but she gave them so much love and attention that we were able to enjoy our family trip without any worries. She kept us updated, followed all of our instructions carefully. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We will definitely ask Emily to watch our pets again in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter!
Shana is great! I hired her to take care of our tortoises that live outside while we were gone for 9 days. Not only did they need daily food and water, but their house also needed to be cleaned regularly. They’re pretty large tortoises so they also make big messes. She updated me every day, took pictures, and I came home to a spotless tortoise enclosure which was a dream. She really cared for them the way we do and I knew she bonded with them from her messages. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy and extremely caring, hire Shana!
Jennifer was kind, caring, and compassionate. She treated sunny with care and love. In addition, she gave us daily updates on how sunny was doing. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. Sunny is usually afraid of strangers, but she immediately warmed up to Jennifer . Jennifer was asked to administer a complicated set of instructions for care of sunny, including handling medication and specific food. She did this very well and we are well pleased with her.
Evan was absolutely wonderful with Morrie! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. Morrie came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know. Evan sent updates that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I never had to wonder how things were going. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Evan is your person. We’ll definitely be booking again!

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.

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.
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.
