“Suzie was a wonderful sitter for my Mabel! Always on time, communicative, and amiable. She leaves fun and detailed notes on each visit with lots of pictures! I knew my girl was well taken care of. Will 100% use again.”
“Rodrigo was available on short notice to provide drop in visits for my dog Seamus. He provided updates and was very professional and plan on using his services in the future”
“Kaelyn was a God send! She not only accepted my last minute Thanksgiving drop in request but also was a loving, caring caretaker for my dog. I will continue to request her for all my future pet sitter needs.”
“Can't say enough good things about Larry! He treats our dog like gold and is so incredibly reliable. We've used Larry multiple times and will continue to as long as we can!”
“Riley is perfect! She communicated immediately, effectively, and cheerfully from the moment I chose her to look after our shy cat Nora. She visited Nora three time while we were abroad, and though Nora didn't interact with her, she didn't hide, which is a good sign. The reports that Riley sent me after each visit were calming to her slightly worried mama, and the pictures she took were darling. Riley is my pet sitter for as long as she wants to be!”
“Lauren is an amazing pet sitter. My daughters and I could immediately see that she is an animal person on the meet and greet. Our German shepherd that is picky about meeting new people loved her immediately. She will be our first pet sitter choice in the future.”

I am a teacher, a dog and cat owner myself. I am reliable, honest and kind to every person and animal big or small. I’m a teacher who has open summers. I can come morning, afternoon, or night.

I also have 2 very friendly rescue cats, Graham and Mellow. I have a lot of space and experience.
“Laura is very passionate and excited to help care for my dog! She even helped with our cats which we appreciated so much. We would definitely recommend her to others and would be happy to work with her in the future!”
“I booked Amanda for a drop-in visit for my two dogs and she was AWESOME. I appreciate that she really spent the time to give them what they needed, even cuddling with them which was so sweet! Overall, she's super reliable and would definitely book her again in the future should I need a sitter.”
About: I’ve previously been a dog trainer, and have worked at several daycare/pet-centered places. Dogs are my absolute joy, and I can’t wait to meet yours! My work schedule is a bit up in the air right now, but I’ll do everything I can to ensure your pup is comfortable while you’re away. I make sure dogs go out frequently to potty, whether that be a quick walk on the leash, or letting them out in the backyard. Meals are given per instructions left for me, and playtime will definitely happen, if that’s something they enjoy. Otherwise, we can snuggle up.
About: I've had dogs growing up as long as I can remember! I've always grown up in a two-dog household and love being surrounded by dogs! I am a photographer and a coach! I have quite a bit of free time to spend with the pups. If it's not to hot outside, we like to spend our days on walks or in the park. We also love a good rainy day to watch movies and play with toys! Your dog will be treated as if they are one of our own! I have two loving dogs that are always down to play, and love a good cuddle session!
About: I'm studying to become a zoologist and I love every kind of animal and I will care for any kind of pet you have not just cats and dogs. Monday-Saturday, 6:00am-11:00pm. I want pet sitting to be my full-time job. I used to work at PetSmart but I enjoy pet sitting more. 🐕🐈⬛🐇🦎🐁 🦜🐛🕷️🐌🦗 🦀🫏🐜🐟🐠 I would care for your pet(s) in your home. (So I might offer boarding later on). I can feed, give water, play with them, walk them, take them potty, change litter boxes, change cage linings, clean up after them if they poop in a cage, it depends on what kind of pet you have. I have experience with caring for many kinds of animals.
“Louis was a lifesaver. I requested 3 last minute drop in visits. He came to my house to meet me and my dogs on the same day as the request, right before I left town. He was very attentive, asked me important questions that I hadn't even thought of, and made me feel completely at ease. He showed up for his visits right on time, like literally right on the hour, every time, stayed the entire 30 minutes, and followed all of my instructions. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I would not hesitate to book him again in the future.”

Plus, with my professional cleaning background, I’ll handle any pet spills or messes on the spot, ensuring your pets are happy and your home stays spotless while you're away. When caring for a guest dog and cat in my home, I keep their exact routines intact with dedicated, cozy spaces so they can eat, play, and relax without any stress.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Auburn
Julia is awesome!! I love how everyday after the drop in I got photos & updates on each animal. Julia would always write a long paragraph for the day which I really appreciate vs getting 1-2 sentences. Julia also went above & beyond by feeding our fish & making sure our chickens were taken care of too. I will definitely rebook with Julia for future sittings.

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.
