About: I've been walking and checking in on friends' and family's dogs for years. I never got to have my own growing up, so dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I'm reliable, easy to communicate with, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with every dog I meet. I'm new to Rover but I'm serious about building something here and I will always show up for your pup! I work full time during the week, but I have availability in the evenings and on weekends and enjoy staying active during my free time. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I do my best to be flexible, communicative, and reliable. My goal is to make pet care as easy and stress free as possible while making sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I currently offer walks and drop in visits so your pet can stay comfortable in the environment they know best. I take being trusted in someone else’s home very seriously and always aim to be respectful, organized, and attentive while caring for your pet. I know every animal has different needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Abby was wonderful with our dogs! They both really liked her! She understood their needs, as senior dogs, and made sure they got lots of love and snuggles. Panda needs medication and Abby was diligent with making sure she followed his schedule.”
“Londyn is an absolute angel, a true life saver! We have three dogs, including one with special needs that she cares for throughout the week. All three love her! We can’t sing her praises enough!”
About: Hi, I’m Cooper. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who loves both dogs and cats and understands how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just calm company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and good at adjusting to each pet’s personality — energetic dogs, shy cats, senior pets, playful puppies, or animals who just need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send updates so you always know how they’re doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and my goal is simple: your dog or cat gets loving, reliable care, and you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to plan walks, visits, feeding, and playtime around each pet’s needs. I make sure every pet gets attention, care, and consistency. I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions closely and keeping their routine as normal as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the space, make sure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, handle feeding carefully, and give pets calm, attentive care. I focus on safety, comfort, and trust so every dog or cat feels secure while their owner is away.
“Thanks, Andru, for watching Riley again and taking such good care of him. Appreciate the care and concern you provide for him and the peace of mind that affords us when we travel. Highly recommended Andru!”
“Janet was wonderful with our Bella. We received daily reports of her well-being, and she sent lots of pictures. When we arrived home, it was very apparent that Bella was well cared for. Thank you for your services.”
About: Heyyyy everyon, my name is Xinyi, feel free to call me Mei. I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, litter box care, and basic grooming. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m patient with shy or nervous pets. I always treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away! I work a regular weekday schedule but have flexibility before and after work, as well as on weekends. I can easily fit drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime into my routine and will always make sure your pet gets the time and attention they need. I take pet safety very seriously and always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and home access. I’ll keep a close eye on your pet, respect their boundaries, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and currently have 2 wonderful dogs that are very dog friendly. We have 2 acres for the dogs to roam I am a full time realtor and I write my own schedule. I can be flexible to your needs. I am open to various routines for multiple animals. I keep a very watchful eye on our animals as they share a space with our 4 daughters who also love animals.

“Emily was quick to respond to our sort of last minute request. She accomodated our needs perfectly. She took great care of our two cutie patootie dogs. Thanks Emily. Will definitely contact again.”
“Jessica is absolutely fantastic! She was able to watch my dog on short notice and took exceptional care of him!!! She was patient with me when I was slightly panicking because I was out of state and the person who was supposed to watch him cancelled. She made sure I didn’t have to worry about my dog and I knew he would be cared for properly. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: As a recently retired teacher, I bring a life time of patience, reliability and genuine care to all that I do including taking care of your pet. After years of nurturing and supporting students, I now dedicate my time to providing attentive, loving care to animals in my community. For most of my adult life, I have owned my own dogs and cats. Currently I have one small dog and an elderly cat. I have hands-on experience taking care of my own dog with diabetes. This included administering insulin, monitoring diet and being attentive to any changes in behavior that could indicate blood sugar problems. Because of my previous work schedule, I have been boarding a few dogs on a fairly regular basis during summer months and holidays. I truly enjoy the connection I feel to dogs when spending time with them. I love playing with them, whether tossing a ball, going for a walk, or simply getting to know their personality. Dogs have a wonderful way of bringing happiness and joy into every day life. Caring for dogs is rewarding to me because of the companionship and unconditional affection they naturally share. I always say "dogs know their people." Because I am recently retired, my daily schedule is flexible. I take my dog for walks in the morning and evening and have some built in play time everyday. I have fenced in back yard for your furry friends to play in. Your pets safety and well - being are top priorities. I understand creating a calm, caring and dependable environment where pets feel secure and loved. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs, routines and personalities. I will treat your pet with same care and tenderness I would want for my own. My goal is for you to feel confident and reassured knowing your beloved pet is safe and comfortable and receiving plenty of love and attention while you're away.

I’ve also worked at a couple of animal facilities such as Williamsburg Pet Hotel & Suites in Ballwin, MO and The Watering Bowl in Mehlville, MO. I can also grind nails, clean teeth, ears also bathe. I’d be the perfect candidate for your furry friend to make them feel comfortable and happy. I currently am looking into owning my own business for an animal facility. I have open availability so if you’re looking for a dog walker or sitter I’m your person.

About: I grew up around large dogs, we even bred them and I enjoyed it very much as a child! Quite a challenge to care for puppies but so fun and rewarding. I often watch my friend’s dog when she leaves and always have a great time doing it. I understand the particular care one need to take when caring for dogs and safety all around is my priority. We are an active family and happy to take your fur baby along if appropriate. I have a flexible schedule and can especially accommodate weekends when pet owners are out of town for a few days. I can help with potty breaks during the day as well. Just contact me and we can discuss how I can accommodate you! The property I live in is large and can facilitate nice walks. There is no through traffic which makes it safe as well! I have baby gates that can be installed around the house to restrict certain areas based on the dog’s profile and behavior.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
