“Abby was a life saver for last minute dog drop ins! She was very quick to respond, communicative, and was great with our boys!! She sent plenty of pictures on their report card too, which we loved. She also went above and beyond to bring in a package we received.”
“Becca is an absolute angel and really went above and beyond this visit!! She brought in packages as well as put them away where my silly cats could not eat the cardboard, and took care of a mess that was 100% not her fault or responsibility. Becca was flexible and accommodating when my fur babies were being so naughty 🫣”
“So responsive, my cats absolutely loved her! She always made 100% sure she could correctly administer my boy’s medication beforehand to ensure the best possible care for him.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and genuinely love spending time with them. I grew up caring for my black lab from age six until eighteen, feeding, walking, playing fetch, and keeping him on a daily routine. Over the years I also had a chocolate lab and now have a three year old yellow lab back home. I’ve spent time around golden retrievers, French bulldogs, labs, and doodles, and feel comfortable with most breeds and personalities. I’ve also dog sat my siblings’ puppies for days at a time - a French bulldog and a golden retriever - I handled feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the night. As a college student who misses her own dog, I’m hoping to hang out with some pups for fun and give them the same care, attention, and affection I give my own. I’m currently a college student and have many breaks during the day to go care for dogs whether it’s playing for a few hours or just a quick walk and potty break! I will respect your home and follow all rules you have. Most importantly I want to make sure your dog is taken care of however you need!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was young both domestic and street dogs. My neighbors, and family have relied on me to walk, feed their pets. I go above because I love spending time with them as they are our extended family. I am currently working from home, with flexible work schedule. I can be contacted last minute for dog or cat sitting or walking. I am just a phone call away: My apartment is clean and spacious. They will be allowed to run free and walk regularly with love and care. Always available as needed. J
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was little. I have watched my neighbors cat making sure the litter box is cleaned and she was feed. I have done that with another cat as well as chicks. I have also house sit / watch a Great Dane before who had separation anxiety made sure him and his cat friends were feed and taken care of. I work part time and will be able to provide all the care, live and attention needed for your pets care wether it’s walks check ins or house sittings. I will always keep the house as found when I am checking in on the pets as well as insuring if any messes by and animal or me happen while I’m around it will be cleaned.
About: I have grown up around dogs and have experience caring for, walking, feeding, and keeping them entertained. I currently have an Australian Shepherd of my own, so I am very comfortable with energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise and attention. I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your dog like my own. I’d love to help with walks, playtime, and check-ins when you are away or busy! I’m a college student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of availability for walks and drop-in visits between classes and in the evenings. I’m also available most weekends and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, or house rules. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and comfortable, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated.
About: Growing up we’ve always had dogs of all ages, so I am skilled at caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I have also had experience taking care of neighbors’ dogs as well while they were away. Currently I am a cat mom, so not only am I capable of caring for cats, but I also have a deep understanding of the love, worry, and responsibility that pet owners experience. All of this being said, I can assure you that your pets will be in good hands when I am around! I currently have a part time internship with a flexible schedule, so I am well equipped to tend to your pets needs. However, I am unavailable most weekends due to family caregiving duties out of town. Since I am a cat mom, I’m not entirely comfortable allowing other animals in my home. However, I am more than willing to go to clients’ homes to feed, walk, let outside, give medicine, cuddle, or play with pets.
“Harley was very attentive to our two adult cats. She was also responsive as we had a couple issues with getting her access through our smart app on phone in our new apartment. Harley worked with us through with fantastic communication 👏 as we were traveling out of state to resolve the issue. Highly recommended 👌”
About: I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years, playing with them and learning all different kinds of body language! I also dog sit for my friends dogs all the time! I love to work with dogs and build that special bond, any size and age!! I currently have class from 8:25am - 9:45am and 8:25am - 12:00pm every other day! I play softball so I do have practice at 5:00pm everyday besides weekends but it won’t be for much longer! I am available any time between those times and will always make sure to find a way to care for your animals!! I have an unfenced yard but will make sure potty breaks and outside play are carefully watched over. I have one very friendly dog and one cat that doesn’t really care for any animals attention!
About: I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and horses. As an Animal Science major on the Pre-Veterinary track, I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience through shadowing and internships at veterinary clinics, learning to handle animals safely and confidently. In addition to my academic and professional background, I’ve been caring for pets belonging to neighbors, friends, and family for many years, from walking energetic dogs to feeding cats and small animals. I’m comfortable working with puppies, senior pets, and those with unique personalities or special needs, and I always provide patient, compassionate, and individualized care for every pet I meet. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine! Although I have classes during the day as an Animal Science major on the Pre-Veterinary track, I have several breaks between classes that give me time to stop by for walks or drop-in visits. I love spending that time with animals—it’s a great way to take a break from studying and do something meaningful. I’m also available most mornings, evenings, and weekends, so I can provide flexible care that fits your pet’s routine and ensures they’re always well looked after. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and trust. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I make sure doors and gates are properly closed, keep walk routes safe and familiar, and always use leashes and harnesses appropriately. During drop-in visits, I focus on maintaining a calm, positive environment—providing fresh water, feeding according to your schedule, cleaning up as needed, and giving plenty of playtime or cuddles. My goal is to ensure every pet feels happy, loved, and stress free until you return.
About: I have volunteered at a fox rescue, wildlife rehabilitation center, and the Minnesota zoo, so I have a ton of experience with many different types of animals. I have always had a dog in my house. My parents currently have 3 dogs and two cats while I have one dog and one cat. I can work with any kind of animal big or small! I have a husky and a German short haired pointer, so I know how to walk, or take care of, a more energetic dog. On the other hand I also have a French bulldog so I also know how to care them smaller, less active dogs. I have dog sat many times before in the past and I have never had any complaints. I will always put your dog first! I am currently working as a CNA at a hospital part time, so I have some time on my days off or after work to help walk or take care your pets! I have a very friendly dog who can play with any type of dog whether they are smaller than her or bigger. I can travel to your house and make sure your dog is well taken care of and walked.
About: I’ve had many pets and animals. I have also dog sat quite a bit in home for 5 dogs at a time. I am very good with animals and very patient. I am a student at South Dakota State University. My schedule makes it so I can get back home every few hours so I can check up on things and let them out. I have a very flexible schedule. My roommate has a little male dachshund. My yard doesn't have a fence because I live in an apartment. I do have a sliding glass door that leads straight out to the grass because I am on the first floor. I am very flexible about how I care for pets, so I can do it however you'd like.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Aurora
Megan did great with my 4 dogs, all lab mixes with very different personalities. We had her come for a couple of drop in visits when we were out of town just for the day. The youngest was a bit shy and didn’t want to come out of her crate, even for food, and Megan still made sure she ate her meal. Overall, very pleased with Megan’s work.

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.

- 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.

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.
