“Becca is fabulous! She has a true love of animals and it shows in the care she gives. I loved the daily updates and pictures she sent. It gave me so much comfort to know my fur baby was taken care of while I was gone.”
About: Being a dog mom for the past 5 years has been one of my greatest joy. Caring for my Aussiedoodle has taught me to recognize a dog's needs, establish routines, and provide plenty of exercise, affection, and companionship. I understand that pets are family, and I'll care for yours with the same love and attention I give my own. Since I'm currently not working, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I can accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide consistent, loving care to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routine to help keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh water, feed them according to the owner's instructions, take them on safe and enjoyable walks, and spend quality time playing and providing companionship. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their family is away. I respect my clients' homes, keep everything clean and secure, and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind.
About: I’ve had 3 dogs in my life growing up, which have all been loved and cared for. In the past couple of years have friends and family asked to take care of their pets. Usually consists of walks and simple drop ins to make sure they are doing well and fed. Most animals that I sit for are dogs. I do love and adore cats, and would love to gain more experience caring for them. I currently work a part-time job, in which i have days in the week i am completely free to take care of your pets! I love going to the park or simply go on walks during my free time. I currently don’t have any other pets which won’t impact the care for your pets. I live with people who also care a lot about animals. I will be able to adapt and understand the environment a dog comes from and accommodate to that.
“Joanna was great with Kobe! She was super reliable, always on time for her drop-ins, and kept me in the loop the whole time with excellent communication. Will definitely be booking her again!”

Your fur baby can play freely inside,and I can take them outside to play. She/he can have her/his own room if you need.
“It was great to have Sarah drop in & take care of our dogs! Luna is very shy & takes a bit to warm up to new people. When Sarah came over for a meet & greet I could tell Luna like Sarah right away. That’s a big relief for me! Tito loves everybody so I wasn’t too concerned about him. Sarah did a great job & communicated with me throughout. I will definitely have her come back!”
“Another great drop in from Andie. She was able to accommodate a last minute request for me. The rover cards she creates each visit are always very detailed and helpful with good pictures. She makes sure everything is how it’s supposed to be with my house as well. My dog loves her!”
“Elizabeth took phenomenal care of Theo! He often takes a while to warm up to new people, but was immediately at ease with her. She provided frequent updates and even brought our packages in. She was truly a wonderful sitter and made our time away from home stress free.”
“Holli was great!!! She was quick to respond and schedule a meeting. She always arrived on time and took care of our kitties! She sent us pics and updates which really put our mind at ease. Would definitely book her again!”
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with my pups! This is my first time using rover and she made me completely comfortable. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kaitlyn was patient with our skiddish rescue and won her over. Pictures and updates sent from each visit. We knew our baby girl was well cared for and we have booked another session with Kaitlyn!!”
“Jessica is such a professional and loving sitter. My cats adored her and vice versa. I loved her detailed manner and she did exactly what we instructed. We told her how we put the cat food out and how to wash the bowels etc. She cleaned up the manual and litter robot area. Love that she gave such detailed accounts and the pics were so awesome. She is wonderful to work with and we highly recommend her for your cats or dogs. She treated them like family.”
“Sahara was literally an angel who stepped in when a previously hired sitter no showed after I had already left town. She has been patient with my very shy and skittish senior cat who is now enjoying being petted by Sahara. I highly recommend her.”

“I had Emma drop in on Thomas for the first time as both of my usual sitters were unavailable. She was able to accommodate the last minute request, asked great questions, and did great with my dog. My house was just as I left it when I returned. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you!”
About: I love dogs and cats too, I got into dog - sitting when I first moved to Georgia and my neighbor went out of town I watched her dog while she was gone and have been dog sitting ever since. I love going out and walking dogs and playing with dogs. I make sure they feel like they are loved and with their owners when I watch animals I love making them even little treats and dinners. Also if you have specific thing your animal eats then you can count on me to make sure they have a good healthy meal, I also am good about giving them their medication. I understand how people love for their animals as if they were their children and I totally get it. You worry about them and want to make sure they are taken care of well. I myself even hate the thought of my animal being alone for over a long period of time because of work or school.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Auburn stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
