“Allison did drop-in visits for my dogs several times a day while I was out of town for a long weekend. From the meet and greet they instantly warmed to her and I knew they would be in good hands. Allison sent regular pictures and updated me on all their antics. It was great to know that they were happy and being well cared for!”
“Brittany was wonderful to have take care of my fur babies! She was reliable and very attentive! It put me at ease knowing that she was taking care of them. She also sent lots of pictures and texted me updates when needed. I absolutely will be using her again in the future!”
“Morgan was wonderful from start to finish. We booked a drop-in visit first so Coco could meet her before committing to house sitting, and it turned out to be a perfect match. Coco is the shyest dog in the world and is usually very hesitant around new people. Morgan was incredibly patient and allowed Coco to approach her at her own pace without any pressure. By the end of the visit, Coco was comfortable enough to let Morgan pet her and be close to her, which is something she rarely does with strangers. Morgan is kind, gentle, and clearly understands how to work with nervous dogs. We were so happy to find her and feel very confident leaving Coco in her care. We will definitely be booking house sitting with Morgan and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and patient sitter.”
“We needed someone at the last minute. Caitlyn answered right away. She showed up at the scheduled time and cared for our dogs exactly as discussed. We really appreciate her willingness to help us out.”
“Guadalupe is fantastic! Our very large pup loved her coming over and checking in on him while we're traveling. And our two very shy/skittish cats actually come out to say hello to her when she drops is. Highly recommend”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ashley was amazing with my dogs, Arya and Salvatore, while I was away for the week! She was always on time, spent quality time playing with them in the yard, and made sure they got plenty of attention. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures, it gave me total peace of mind knowing they were happy and cared for. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
About: I’ve had family pets my entire life and have always had a love for fur babies & treating every single pet like they are my own! I work fully remote (with the exception of an occasional office pop-in), and I have a flexible schedule on the weekends as well. Will require advanced notice for weekend visits. I always make sure there’s plenty of food, water, snacks, pets & walks - the animals comfort, happiness and safety is my number one priority at all times!
“Kendra did a wonderful job looking after our Mila cat. She fed her, played with her and filled her treat puzzles. Kendra was great about staying with Mila for the full time, even if Mila was not particularly cuddly. She also sent great pictures throughout and her updates covered all the necessary information. We would definitely work with Kendra again”
“Suzy was awesome! She leaves a note with every rover card and tells you about her visit with your animals! She was punctual, kind, and had great communication. Will 100% be using her again!”
“This is our second time using Erin and she does not disappoint! We are grateful she takes such good care of our cats and we have one less thing to worry about when we are out of town :). Highly recommend her!”
“Mylissa was very sweet, patient, and deft with our dog, even when the dog showed signs of aggression. She was very open to working with us on a care plan that works best for everyone, and we are grateful to her.”

I also send regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Lillian has watched our pup a couple times now and is amazing! She’s super reliable, communicative and always gives a detailed update with pictures. It’s so nice to finally have a go-to caregiver for Millie, and Lillian is definitely ours!”
“Courtney was so great with watching after our “old man”. She went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable and happy while we were away. We were lucky to have her come by.”
About: I am very sweet and gentle to many animals, but I also love keeping them active by taking them on walks and playing with them!! I have school every week day, but I get out early enough to be able to visit, walk, watch, and take care of any dogs or cats. I take my dog on walks, cuddle with her, play with her, and love her to death! I love taking her to the dog park as well near my house. When I have pet sat in the past, I value taking the dog on walks and cuddling with them too!
“Couldn't be happier with the care Shaylee gave my two kitties! My Leroy was recently diagnosed with diabetes and having Shaylee there to take care of his insulin doses while I was away made me feel so much better ! She was always responsive and on time.”

We are so grateful for Haylee! This was a last-minute decision, and we had never done anything like this before—but she made the entire experience absolutely amazing. Haylee was incredibly kind and kept us updated every step of the way while we were out of town. We’ll definitely keep booking her as long as we possibly can!

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 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.
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 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.
