“This was Olivia’s first time watching our cats and she was seriously outstanding. She really went above and beyond, overcoming some inconveniences to provide excellent care. I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs belonging to family, family friends, and neighbors for over 10 years. I have a family dog that I primarily took care of from 8 weeks old to one year old. I’ve taken care of my neighbors cats multiple times and I currently have two of my own. I currently have a part-time job that I work Monday-Friday. This still leaves plenty of time for me to provide care for your animals in the morning, at night, and during the day. I would be able to adjust to each clients home according to how they specifically take care of their pets. My first priority would be the pets safety. I would provide regular food according to their feeding schedule and make sure they always have fresh water. I would learn about their specific needs and take note of changes in behavior. They would receive plenty of attention and affection in my care. A clean living space and regular exercise would be a priority. I am responsible with every pet I care for and clients can always depend on me to show up and put in time and effort with their pets.
“10/10 would let him come over again! - Cajsa + Freja, very picky Bernese Mountain Dogs 🐾🐾 Logan really came through for us on a last minute trip, a true godsend! Our girls require very specific care, and even a small mishap could have life or death consequences. As such, hiring a new sitter is always nerve wracking but Logan was fantastic! Super chill, flexible, understanding and easy to talk to. And our girls don’t usually favor men, but they accepted him right away. Thanks again, Logan, we’ll def reach out for our next trip!”
About: I’ve had dogs as a big part of my family since I was extremely young. Having dogs has taught me so many new responsibilities, and struggles between figuring out what they need or what. I’m currently unemployed and looking into just taking college courses and having a part time job. With that I will have plenty of time to spend with your loving pets to ensure that they are properly cared for, and get all the attention they deserve while you’re gone. I will always ensure that they are fed when they need to be fed along with, making sure that they always have clean and drinkable water, lots of time outside to get out the zoomies during playtime, more than enough potty breaks, and clean litter boxes always.

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my neighbor ran an in-home dog boarding business, and I would stop by every day after school to help care for the pups staying with her. We adopted our first family dog when I was 9, and dogs have been a huge part of my life ever since. Today, I have four dogs of my own who are truly family, and I promise to treat your pets with that same love, patience, and care! As a dog owner, I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs with special needs and medical conditions. My dog Mabel, who is 11, underwent a double enucleation (removal of both eyes), so I understand how to help blind dogs navigate their surroundings safely and confidently. Before her surgery, I also administered her eye drops daily for a year. My dog Lenny has heart disease and takes multiple medications and supplements, so I’m very comfortable administering medications and keeping track of doses using a pill organizer. I also love staying active with my dogs! I take my Maggie on walks of at least 1.5 miles regularly and am happy to provide exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention based on your dog’s individual needs. I understand that pets are family, and trusting someone else to care for them is a big deal. I’ll do my best to make sure your pups feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while you’re away. ❤️ I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule! I can easily step away for 30 minutes to an hour throughout the day between meetings and other tasks. This allows me to be flexible with visits, walks, feeding schedules, and giving your pets the attention they need while you’re away. Although my dogs do not enjoy company in their home, I am more than happy to accommodate your dog’s safety in your home. I am very vigilant and aware of my surroundings when I take my dogs on walks and will ensure that I do the same to keep your dog safe at all times.
About: I just moved here about two months ago from Mackinac Island and would love to make some extra money, and I figured I would join Rover and do something I love! I grown up with dogs and cats, and have pet sit for plenty of friends and family. I love all animals, but dogs and cats hold a special place in my heart. I believe in treating all animals, like their my own. I will make sure your pet is comfortable and happy while I am hanging out with them! I am a full time college student and also work at a hospital. I am available Mon & Wed anytime after 3:30, Tues & Thurs anytime before 7pm and anytime on weekends! I will constantly be watching them, giving them lots of attention and care. I follow instructions to a tee and will always go out of my way to give them the best care that they deserve.
About: I love providing unconditional love and care around the clock, for your fur babies. I am reliable and honest, and will always go above and beyond for my clients. I’m currently working a part-time job so I’m readily available for anyone who may need a last minute dog-sitter. I am very flexible as well! I have a friendly 1.5 year old Shepador named Echo, to keep your fur baby company. I can also quickly crate your dog if things were to escalate between them. I have experience with on-leash and off-leash experience with many different types of dogs. I know how to create a calm and relaxing atmosphere for your fur babies and can give you a piece of mind that they will always be safe when they are with me. 🙂
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, dependable, and understand that every pet has a different personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I adapt to their needs to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow detailed instructions, administer oral medications if needed, and provide regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I currently have a flexible schedule. I am a full-time student, with all of my classes in the mornings, so I have availability in the afternoons and evenings. I am also completely free from Thursday after 11 a.m. through Sunday, allowing me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable care for pets. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe and sticking to their usual routine so there’s as little stress as possible while their owner is away. I spend time with them, make sure they’re fed on schedule, get their walks or litter box cleaned, and get plenty of attention and playtime. I also treat the home with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I love sending updates and pictures so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and cared for.
About: I’ve been house/pet sitting for large dogs such as mastiffs, pitties, and labradoodles. Also have cared for small animals such as ferrets, rabbits, chickens and small breeds of dogs! I have been working at a horse farm for 10 years where I am responsible for daily care and support! I am a safe and responsible sitter and Walker, following specific instructions as needed! I recently graduated college with a bachelors in biology and plans to attend veterinary school in the future. I’ve owned all sorts of animals my whole life from tortoises to ferrets to mastiffs and chickens. I grew up working at an equestrian barn for over 10 years. I am very permeable in my schedule, just message for more availability! I have a fenced in yard and listen very well to directions from owners as far as dog friendliness and travel instructions!

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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.
