“Dani did a wonderful job looking after our dogs! We loved seeing the pictures everyday and we were at ease knowing they were being well loved. She understood the unique needs of each dog and went above and beyond to meet them. We will absolutely use Dani again!”
“Christy took great care of my dog. She took the time to come meet us ahead of time so that my dog would know who she is recognized her doggy facial cues that can be confusing for people without much experience. She was enthusiastic, and I feel confident that my dog received great care.”
“Jerry’s care of our pets was outstanding as usual!! Upon returning home I was immediately pleased because all three cats we’re at the door as if they were waiting for him!! Everything was in order the place looked great and the pets were obviously well cared for by Jerry. The photos he sent us at each visit put a smile on our face and made us feel comfortable leaving him in charge of our four-legged family again this trip. Thank you so much Jerry!!”
“Anne is amazing! She is so good with my pups, especially my nervous guy. We appreciate her communication, great pictures, and accommodating to our last minute requests. We will definitely be booking with Anne again!”
About: I have taken care of and owned dogs and cats my whole life. I walk, feed, board, and care for my animals or when anyone else (family, friends, etc) need help. I currently own two dogs myself and have a large fenced yard for them. I am available for drop ins and walking during the week due to my work from home schedule. It does vary by week but I'll make sure to keep it updated. I can do drop ins or walk your pup from your home. I am comfortable with all size of dogs. I currently own two dogs, no crated, and a large yard
About: I’ve never understood why chihuahuas loved me so much until I realized how much people don’t respect the boundaries of such small creatures. So much so, they feel the need to be aggressive and defend themselves! I know a good amount about dogs and dogs breeds, how different breeds have different needs and will strive to meet the needs of your fur-baby! I am a full-time Master’s student, but my classes are on weekends only. I have many things to read so overnights would likely be spent playing with your fur-baby before I get some reading done for my degree. To make sure you and your fur-baby feel safe with me in your home, I will make sure to talk through routines you may have with your pet(s). I know how hard it is to be away from your pet, so I will make sure to send photos and videos as requested. I want to make sure I know how to properly care for your pets, so I may have a couple extra questions to figure out how I may support you and your pet.
“We were lucky to get Noelle to take care of our two cats while we were away for Thanksgiving! She followed our instructions to a T - came in the right time window, made sure they were both OK, sending us pictures while we were gone, etc. She even managed to track down our elusive shy kitten for pictures. A+, would book again! Thanks Noelle!”
About: Having owned pets since childhood, my journey of caring for animals has been lifelong. For the past five years, my focus had been on nurturing my special needs Corso, Bane, who bravely battled heart failure since he was 10 months old until his passing at the end of December. Presently, I'm cherishing the companionship of a sweet, socialized Corso puppy, Lilith, born in November 2024. My commitment to showering all animals with love and attention is unwavering. You can trust that your cherished pet will be in safe and loving hands with me. I am able to provide exceptional boarding services because I work part time at night but someone is ALWAYS home throughout the entire week in the house. Additionally, my location is ideal, situated next to a few dog parks as well as some beach locations, your pet will have access to ample outdoor space and constant companionship, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay. At my pet boarding facility, your furry companions' safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. Your fur babies have free range throughout the entire house. Regular outdoor excursions are part of our routine, as my dog and I frequently embark on walks to ensure plenty of exercise. Numerous walking trails, and an enclosed dog run within the near vicinity. Rest assured, your pets will be well-cared for, loved, and surrounded by a nurturing environment filled with space to roam and explore.
“Lydia was wonderful with my girls. They bark and intimidate some sitters, but she loved on them and took special care. She was also on-time for her visits. Very highly recommended.”
About: Former mental-health professional who is happily shifting my career from mental health & behavioral health counseling to full-time animal care—because honestly, dogs have always been my favorite therapy clients! I fully understand fear, trauma, and behavior at a deep level. I have no other dogs in the home, no cats and no children which offers a unique experience compared to the usual doggy daycare. For years I have been the go to Foster for local rescues for complex medical and emotional needs dogs. For nearly 15 years I’ve volunteered and fostered with local rescues and shelters, helping many dogs find calm, confidence, and their forever homes. I hold canine CPR & first-aid certification, I have extensive training in dog behavior and positive-reinforcement techniques, and I’m currently studying for my CPDT-KA professional dog trainer certification. When your dog stays with me, they are literally the only guest in my home. They have full run of the house and fully fenced backyard, sleep wherever they feel most secure (many choose right in bed with me), and receive gentle, constant companionship in an ultra-low-stress environment. I work from home, have no children present, no other animals and I am the only person in my home. My fully fenced, spacious backyard gives them plenty of room to zoom, play, or just sunbathe while I’m never more than a room away. • To ensure a comfortable and professional experience for both my clients and myself, I do not accept house-sitting bookings in homes with active indoor cameras or audio recording devices. Outdoor security cameras (such as doorbell cameras or cameras monitoring the exterior of the property) are absolutely fine. If there are any cameras or recording devices in the home, I simply ask that they be disclosed before booking so we can make sure we’re a good fit for one another. Canine CPR certified and comfortable with injections, fluids, seizure meds, tubes — whatever your dog needs. No kids, no pets, no chaos—just peace and snuggles Your dog lives like family: free roam, couch cuddles, my bed if wanted, constant company, daily yard play, fresh meals, meds, love—never crated or alone.
About: Hi, I’m Rosa! With 12 years of experience caring for dogs, I know that every pup has their own personality, routine, and little quirks that make them special. I share my home with my 11-year-old Yorkie, who is still playful and full of personality. Caring for a senior dog has taught me how important patience, attentiveness, and understanding each dog’s individual needs can be. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved—and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pup enjoys neighborhood walks, exploring the park, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with a trusted companion, I’ll tailor our time together to their energy level and preferences. I’m happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medication, crate use, and rest so your dog can maintain a familiar routine. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big decision. That’s why I value clear communication, thoughtful care, and regular photo updates through Rover, so you can see how your pup is doing. I’m available for boarding on most weekdays after 2 PM, with flexibility depending on my schedule. Before booking, I’d love to learn about your dog’s temperament, daily routine, favorite activities, and any special needs. I’d love to meet you and your pup and help them feel right at home! 🐶❤️ I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pup lots of attention. I’m available for boarding on most weekdays after 2 PM. I’m also happy to accommodate your dog’s usual feeding, walking, and rest schedule whenever possible. My priority is keeping every pup safe, comfortable, and supervised. I have a clean, dog-friendly home and an 11-year-old Yorkie who is friendly and used to having other dogs around. I’m happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, crate use, and routines, and I’ll make sure your dog has a calm space to relax when they need quiet time.
About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a passionate animal lover with 5 years of hands-on pet care experience. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I currently have 3 dogs, 1 cat, and 5 chickens of my own! My experience goes far beyond caring for my own pets. I’ve worked at two dog daycares and as a groomer, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, dogs with intense anxiety, and dogs who need a little extra patience, reassurance, and one-on-one attention. I’ve also administered medications and am comfortable following specific care instructions to make sure every pet gets exactly what they need. I have extensive experience with cats as well, including kittens, senior cats, cats requiring medication, and even feral cats. I’m FetchFind certified, which taught me a lot about animal behavior and communication, and I’m currently completing two animal behavior certifications through Washington State University, where I’m learning more about animal behavior, including both canine and feline behavior. I especially love working with animals who need a little extra love and understanding. Whether your pet is nervous, elderly, energetic, shy, independent, or simply takes some time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and give them the individualized care they deserve. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, enrichment, and care! 🐾❤️ I’ll be attending school part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule to dedicate time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work my school schedule around my pet-care bookings and make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I’m looking forward to spending my free time with your babies, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, enrichment, or simply keeping them company! 🐾❤️ When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, enrichment, and any specific routines or preferences your pet has. I’ll give them plenty of attention and companionship while also respecting their space if they’re more independent or need time to warm up. I’m also very respectful of my clients’ homes. I’ll keep things clean and tidy, make sure doors and gates are secure, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Since I’ll be attending school part-time, I’ll have plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to your pets and make sure they aren’t simply being checked on, but are receiving meaningful one-on-one care throughout my visits. 🐾❤️
“I booked Deb for a few drop in visits to take care of my two cats while I was on vacation. She was great! My cats loved her, and she kept me updated with pictures and videos during her visits.”
About: I have always loved animals and dogs have a special place in my heart (I'm the girl that stops dead in her tracks to point out EVERY dog I see to whoever I am out with). My family had dogs and cats growing up, and I’ve always been the go to person for family and friends to help out with their babies. I'm a very active person, so your pup will get plenty of love and exercise while they are with me. I'm also very flexible so I am more than happy to satisfy any needs or special treatment! I’m currently a full-time student, taking classes online, so my schedule is extremely open! My days are very flexible and I am happy to make adjustments to fit the needs of my clients. I always follow any rules or requests you have when i am with your pet. You’ll get lots of pictures and i am always easy to reach for any questions
About: We take time to get to know each client and organize our space and time around your pet's unique needs. We are not a large boarding facility and we only accept a very small number of pets at a time. As a result, we're able to follow the pace, routine and needs of each dog and cat in our care, helping to keep anxiety low while ensuring they receive enrichment, proper exercise and plenty of snuggles. Your pet will be provided care and socialization without becoming overwhelmed or lost in the pack! I'm currently a stay at home mom to human and fur babies and married to a firefighter who is also home frequently. Aside from the occasional errand, your pet will have constant companionship, interaction, walks, potty breaks and snuggles. Most pets are never alone for the duration of their stay. Being away from home can be hard for pets! Whether boarding overnight for a few days or just a work day away, dogs and cats stay as close to their home routine as possible while in my care. They'll receive plenty of play and stimulation to prevent boredom and have unlimited access to a fully fenced yard and frequent walks to be well exercised. If they just need someone to stop in, they'll receive care and snuggles and you'll have the reassurance that that they're being well taken care of and have everything they need while you're away from them. Your fur baby will be treated like one of the family when they are in my care!
“Samantha was wonderful and did a great job checking in on our little 10 yr old cat Obie. This was our first time using her and she was very quick to respond to my inquiry. Samantha was courteous, polite and very consistent with daily updates on Rover without issue. Obie seemed to enjoy her visits and company as well!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Artondale
Katelyn has been amazing with my two little dogs! She has been patient as my shy and anxious girl, Cora, is getting to know her. My pup, Ruger, loved her from the first meeting. She is great with communication and very dependable. I'm so happy to have found her!
Russell was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Moose! From the beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. He was kind, attentive, dependable, and clearly has a love for dogs. Russell took Moose on walks and sent us photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. Seeing her happy and comfortable gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for Moose! We would absolutely trust Russell with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their dog like their own.
Ross was an absolute Godsend!! He took such good care of my kitties, and they warmed up to him rather quickly, even my shy girl Rosie. He kept in touch promptly and made sure to leave detailed notes after each visit. He was extremely accommodating as well, as maintenance had to change my locks while I was away and I also had a package delivered early... I informed him of all of this and he graciously changed my keys on my key ring and made sure my package made it inside safely. He went above and beyond the call of duty and I felt my kitties were in great hands. I would 100% book with him again!
I booked Amber to watch my kitties over the Christmas holiday. I came home to my kitties healthy, and thus grateful for their care. We did have some communication issues (her phone didn’t have service/not on and a missed drop in which I had to reach out to her first (hours later) to understand what was going on). I do want to say that she did remedy the issue in the end. My only critique is that I would have wanted her to find a way to communicate with me first when things arise that affect my pets feeding schedule so I could find an alternative solution, that way she could focus on any personal emergencies that pop up. Overall Amber is nice and friendly and I know with more pet-sitting experience she will be a well-sought after Rover sitter.

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.
