“Awesome experience, was out of town for quite some time and had no doubt that my babies were in good hands. Great communication through the whole time. Thank you Bailey!”
“Ladonna and her husband were awesome in taking care of my cat while I was gone for a week on vacation. I always received updates with pictures daily, so there was never anything to worry about. I was also glad to see she had brought him an extra toy so he was able to play when no one was at my apartment, along with a picture magnet I was able to put on my fridge of my cat. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their animals.”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog Nova. She came everyday fed her, played with her and my cat although she didn't have to. She was very attentive and gentle with my pets. I had no issues with her coming to my home while I was away and she was sure to lock up and leave the key somewhere I can easily find it on her last day. I appreciate Jennifer greatly and will be using her services again!”
“Kayla was amazing with my Bella and very communicative. She sent lots of pictures and detailed postcards at each visit. She gave me no reason to worry while we were away. We will be booking again!”
“Leía was phenomenal in every way; I immediately felt at ease during the meet and greet with how she handled the pup even when she was being somewhat temperamental. She communicates well and quite obviously loves animals. 10/10 highly recommend and look forward to using her services again soon.”
“Kaila has been working with our family doing Drop In Visits daily Monday through Friday for nearly 2 months now. She is nothing short of punctual, dependable, respectful of our home/yard & amazing with our senior dog! He was a rescue and is very aloof with strangers but truly enjoys her daily visits which is evident in that he no longer licks his front left paw out of anxiety - a nervous tic diagnosed by the vet a few years ago. We are here in Macon for a work project which requires working 10 hours a day, sometimes longer. And we couldn’t do it without her!”
“Zion was kind, punctual, inquisitive, and clearly cared a lot about making sure my pets were comfortable and happy. My cats warmed up to her faster than they do with most people! I am so happy with the services provided and would highly recommend booking with Zion (:”
“Naomi went above and beyond caring for my two disabled chihuahuas and my rascal cat. One of my dogs has mega-esophagus and requires a very specific feeding and Naomi followed the instructions and the chihuahu thrived under her care. The chihuahuas are very picky and absolutely loved her! I am already planning more trips because of how great Naomi is.”
“We were on vacation for the holidays and Camron took such great care of our baby! He was always on time with drop in visits, took photos, and communicated daily- We’re so thankful for him!”
“All I can say is WOW! Alaina was absolutely amazing from day one. I had a 10 day trip out of state and was so nervous about leaving my fur baby home alone. But having her complete my daily check in's put me at ease. I can't say enough wonderful things about how she followed my directions and cared for my baby. She's really gifted! My fur baby and I are her #1 fans! I will never book with anyone else if I need pet care! She's the best.”
“Arsiyana was great with our cat Alan. She was quick to respond and sent many wonderful pictures of our cat. Would recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their animal.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of them has always been second nature to me. Right now I have two dogs of my own, Ali, my Cockapoo, and Queen, my Great Pyrenees. They have completely different personalities, so I know every dog has their own routine and needs. Even though I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and I’ll care for your dog the same way I care for mine. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying with them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send plenty of updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently offer dog walking & drop-in visits. I work full-time, so I’m mostly available on weekends, some holidays, and other times depending on my schedule. I’ll always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. Once I commit, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, and love they deserve, and I’ll stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel comfortable from the start. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your pet’s routine, and pay attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since my first dog at age 11. Since then I’ve been walking, feeding, bathing and caring for friends and neighbors pets often. I love animals and the outdoors so it’s become a dream job for me. I work on the weekends so throughout the week I can give your pets my full undivided attention. Monday through Thursdays I usually spend studying alone so it would be nice to have furry company! I have a fenced in backyard that’s perfect for any dog. Although I don’t have any pets myself all my neighbors have furry babies and I have the perfect neighborhood for walks. I spend most time outdoors so I don’t mind going out. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks or to the park. Pets who like the indoors will have their own bed at my house. I will rarely dog sit at another person’s house but there can be a few exceptions.
About: I have experience caring for pets through freelance pet-sitting and pet-care jobs for a variety of clients. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats, including senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and care. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters, helping walk and care for shelter pets. I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and I genuinely enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, mostly on occasional weekday nights and Saturday mornings. My schedule is flexible. I am unavailable on most Sundays but can negotiate needs. I provide attentive and personalized care in the client’s home, following their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout each visit.

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.
