“Rover review She took great care of Hazy while I was away. He unfortunately developed vomiting and diarrhea during my trip, so she had to clean up after him daily and keep a close eye on him. It may have been anxiety- but nonetheless-She even brought a probiotic from home for him, which I really appreciated. I ended up adding three extra visits so she could continue monitoring him, and she was reliable and communicative throughout. I really appreciated her taking on the extra work while Hazy wasn’t feeling well.”
“Hazel has been great help for our busy family and taking care of Max our fur baby. Super punctual and flexible and communicative. Max sure enjoys his walks with her. Thank you Hazel 🙏🏻”
“Neesa came to our meet and greet with prepared questions! Our anxious dog immediately warmed up to her, and she was able to read his body language easily. She sent plenty of cute videos and pictures during her drop ins!”
About: Hello, I started to care for dogs other than mine when I started babysitting for children years ago. I really enjoy it. I am available during the day until 5pm most days. If you need later just request or ask and ill let you know if i can on the days you need. I am excited to meet new dogs, and be able to help fellow owners who need a hand making sure their dogs are taken care of. I really love dogs and hope to be a good fit in this community. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I know these dogs are precious to you and I will my best to keep them on their schedule. I work nights so I’m usually available during the day. This fits for me because I want to be more active during the day. I cant wait to meet your dog! Depends on the pet parents. Some pet parents leave their dogs out. I try to make sure they have some water on warmer days. If they are crated, then I crate them before I leave. I make sure the home is closed when I leave for a walk and when I leave for the day.
“This is our second time booking with Alex, and she’s been wonderful both times! She’s reliable and great with both our cats and chinchillas. We really appreciate her updates and attention to detail during drop-in visits. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have trained many puppies and older dogs alike. All my dogs have been rescues so I’m very familiar with dogs that have come from bad situations and dogs that are misunderstood because of their breeds. I’ve always had dogs of different sizes, breeds and temperaments. I’m always the first person my friends and family go to when they need some extra help with t dogs or just need someone to watch them while on vacation. I live on 10 acres which is perfect for those dogs that love off leash time but don’t get a lot, I love exploring new areas and have assisted in training dogs while in the military. I'm a stay at home wife who takes care of all our animals! I adore dogs and take mine on several walks a day around the farm, we have a creek that the dogs can swim in as well in the nicer weather. Pets are my passion and I love hosting others in my home and going out to other places to walk pets! I live on twelve acres and can offer a safe environment for dogs to safely play in, I have extra long leads so if your pup isn’t quite off leash trained they can still have an amazing experience with the long leads and all the land. I always follow whatever instructions are left for me as I know how important routines can be for a pet!
“Ashley was amazing with our cat sitting needs. Taking time to check food and water as well as changing out the litter box. She even took care of the plants that were in need of some water love during the heat!”
“Matilda left everything in fantastic shape and took wonderful care of Milo. She even filled our bird feeders - which is such good entertainment for Milo! She is always very thoughtful and informative about her visits.”
“Jodi was exceptional and took wonderful care of our two senior kitties while we were away. She asked thoughtful questions, was alwayd qucick to respond, and just the easiest person to get along with! We look forward to booking her for future cat sittings. :)”
“Second time that Jasmine has taken care of Kiko and it was great. Kiko is very nervous around people, and we threw Jasmine right into the middle of a family reunion to to ease Kiko into the situation. During the three hours that Jasmine was here, her instincts were excellent, and by the time an hour or so had passed she had helped Kiko to be totally at ease around the 25 or so attendees, eventually leading Kiko to kind of be the star of the show. :) Thanks Jasmine!!”
About: I have taken care of my family and friend’s dogs throughout my whole life. 2 years ago I finally was able to get my own dog who isa German shepherd mix that I take care of full time!

I always make sure that they are fed on time, have amble water, are walked, and make sure that I provide amble entertainment such as playing with them and their toys.
“Madeline watched our cats while we were away overseas for two weeks. She was always very thoughtful and detailed with her updates, and took an extra step to text them to us when we were having trouble with the app. She is already at the top of our list the next time we need a sitter. She was great!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and know how to take care of them. I’ve had a dog of my own until he passed away recently. The care and safety of your pets is my top priority. I believe in effective communication, so I will try my best to keep you updated throughout the process. I follow all my clients’ instructions and preferences, so you don’t have to worry about your home while you’re away; I make sure everything is locked up, treat your belongings with respect, and leave your home just as you left it so you can come back without extra stress, especially knowing how exhausting travel can be. I work fully remote so I work from home, so I can pack up and stay in your home whenever I'm available. I tend to adapt my daily schedule around my new roommates' schedules, so they don't get stressed out by the situation. I can also be of assistance for drop-in visits and for walking service. work fully remote so I work from home, so 1 can pack up and stay in your home whenever I'm available.

“Miss Catherine is a wonderful dog sitter. I will definitely use her Services again. I really appreciate the pictures and how she tended to my girls. Thank you again miss Catherine”
“Josh and Andres are fantastic. This is the first time Cody, Sophie, and Eliza have been left alone overnight, and Josh really put our minds at ease. He sent us pictures and updates after every visit, and he was very quick to respond to any questions we had both before and during his visits. Our dogs seemed really happy and very comfortable with Josh; even our rescue, Eliza, who normally takes a long time to open up to people, seem to really like him. We can't recommend them enough, and we will definitely be using them again soon!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ashton-Sandy Spring
Leah did an amazing job with our two pups, Raven and Cole. She was extremely communicative and took constant photos and detailed notes of her visits with the pups to let us know they were well cared for. She even left a present for the dogs- a few toys and a thoughtful note! We will definitely use her again as it’s been a fantastic experience!
Gabi’s been a great sitter for our pups! She pays close attention, listens to our pups’ needs, and communicates clearly every step of the way. She’s always responsive, which gives us peace of mind while we’re away and we feel confident that our pups are n good hands. Highly recommend!
We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Elona! She took care of our senior cat for a week, and the level of attention and care she provided was truly above and beyond. She diligently administered his anxiety and arthritis medications, kept all four of his water bowls fresh daily, played with his favorite toy to keep him happy, and even took the time to talk to him so he never felt alone. Our cat can be a handful with his special needs, but Elona handled everything with ease and genuine love. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet like family!

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.
