About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, chickens, and horses for the last 5+ years. Also have had pets since I was around 10 or 12. I’m working a few hours a week, so I’m pretty open as schedules go. I love meeting new animals, even if they don’t like me at first. We have an outdoor cat, but I can work with whatever the client needs. All I need is a list of things that need to be done and when.
“Ayla took excellent care of our kitties. We came back to healthy cats who are enthusiastic about hanging out with us, and our house was sufficiently clean and dry. I would totally hire Ayla again and recommend her pet services to others.”
“Niki did an exceptional job caring for our two dogs while we were gone over a long weekend. The dogs immediately took to her during the initial visit and she followed our details and communicated well with us using the Rover systems. We highly recommend Niki and would definitely use her again. Her care was truly exceptional.”
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals — they intuitively trust me and I’ve loved them my whole life. I grew up with a Great Pyrenees mix, so I’m super comfortable with big, fluffy, gentle giants, and I’ve always been the friend people call when they need someone reliable to watch their dogs. From puppies to elderly dogs, I've cared for them all. (I also have a huge soft spot for farm dogs!) Pets tend to warm up to me quickly, and I treat every animal with the same love, calmness, and care I gave my own. I'm currently in-between jobs and am available for pet care:) I'd love to make taking care of your pet part of my day! Availability is open. I’m very adaptable and will care for your pet however you need me to. I’m happy to follow your routines, preferences, and any special instructions so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I have been a huge animal lover all my life. I have raised many different animals including dogs, cats, birds and rabbits. My last dog Poppy I had for 16 wonderful years. I have had experience raising a litter of my own 4 husky mix puppies, volunteerd at local animal shelters and also have worked at a doggy daycare and grooming shop. I currently have one chihuahua named Luna that I recently adopted. I have also done housesitting and pet sitting for some of my friends. I will keep your pet safe and provide the best care possible for them. I took a break from Rover while I lived in MN. I'm back in the area now. My schedule is pretty flexible as of right now. I am hoping to have a set one in the near future. My main job is animal care. I can offer long walks and plenty of playtime and tlc. I will treat your fur babies like my own and keep them safe and sound.
About: I’ve owned dogs most of my life and raised two wonderful lab puppies. I’ve cared for friend’s and family’s animals and have a calm patient approach to animal care. I’ve even had hamsters and chickens. I’m currently establishing a homestead with my two cats and ten chickens and working part time. I’m looking forward to growing my animal flock further in the next few years. Safety is my first priority so I make sure that I understand your animal’s needs and tendencies before coming in or out. Once I’m sure we are safe then it’s time to have fun in whatever way your pet likes. Some want a comfy snuggle and some need to work off some energy. I’m there for them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Ashland
I felt very assured my two older cats were being well cared for in my absence. Colleen even went beyond cleaning the litter boxes having swept and used the vacuum on at least one occasion. I came back to stress free cats and well maintained home. I definitely would recommend Colleen and would he happy to have her drop in with my two again next time I go out of town.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
