“Tabitha took great care of my needy and noisy older cat with separation anxiety. It’s great to know I can leave her in experienced hands. Would love to book again if she’ll have us!”
“Samantha is awesome with my pets. She has come by for last minute drop ins and has always been reliable, friendly, and kind. Would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies!”
“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and have taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am the one they always rely on to care for there’s pets and I hope to do the same for you. I’m currently looking for a job, so I will have lots of free time to care for your pets, and with flexible scheduling to what days you might need. Caring for pets at the client’s home I would make sure to ask where they keep the food, treats, toys for the pets, and cleaning supplies just in case if they make an accident by chance.
“Katherine was great! One of my pups has reactivity issues and it’s always making me nervous leaving him with someone else but Katie quickly showed that my concern was not necessary at all. 10/10 would recommend”
“Grace was always on time to the visits. She went far and beyond and did everything I requested. I'm grateful I had her to take care of padme. Definitely will pick her again for a future. Thank you Grace!”
“Elias was on time for each visit and took great care of our senior golden retriever. Unfortunately, our golden had a few accidents and threw up on his doggy bed but Elias cleaned every mess without complaint and kept us informed. Overall, we are very pleased with how our fur baby was cared for. Would book again!!”
“Sylvia was wonderful!! Provided great information and photos. The cats loved her, they don't usually come out for sitters but they adored her and it was clear she made an effort to cultivate a relationship with them. I definitely plan to book with her again.”
“Jun did great job with drop-in visits for my dog Jax. He came on short notice and ensured my pup was in good hands. He made sure to communicate any concerns that came up and helped Jax become comfortable with him. I would definitely use Jun again.”
“We had an emergency and we’re away from home longer than expected. I contacted Catherine who went to tend to our kitties on short notice and eliminated that worry for us. She saved the day!”
“Gabriella did a great job. Was on time and very attentive to Hanna and gave her lots of playtime and snuggles. So happy with her service and care of our dog. Thanks so much”
“Katie was so awesome taking care of Cooper and Sophie! She took our request on the day before we had to leave and she was so easy to work with. She put a normally anxious dog dad at peace immediately with how she was able to easily befriend both of our dogs and was instantly chilling with both of them. She was right on time, the pics of the dogs were comforting, and the dogs both looked happy and at peace. I recommend her for anyone that’s looking to have their dogs watched and will definitely reach out to her in the future.”
“Last month I found out that my previous dog walker moved out of town, I ran across Emma's profile and noticed she had many good reviews. We met for a meet and greet and my husband and I both felt comfortable having her care for our dog. We scheduled a weekend trip and we had no issues. I booked her again for a week long of drop in visits and she went above and beyond to make sure our dog was well taken care of. I would definetely recommend Emma to care for your pups. Thanks again for everything <3”
About: I truly believe pets are part of the family—and when they’re in my care, that’s exactly how I treat them. ❤️ I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including walking, drop-in visits, and caring for them in both my home and their own homes. I love getting to know each dog and figuring out what makes them happy. Whether they want to play, go for a good walk, get lots of attention, or simply curl up beside me, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m an active, engaged pet sitter and love playing, talking to, and spending time with my furry friends. Once they’re in my care, they become part of my family. I enjoy playing with cats too, and giving them attention, but I also understand that many cats are happiest doing their own thing. I’m perfectly comfortable letting a cat have their space while keeping a watchful eye and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and cared for. My home is smoke-free, clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I keep food safely stored in cupboards and maintain a clean and sanitized environment. I’m mindful about keeping floors and common areas clean and making sure pets have a safe, comfortable place to relax. I have lengthy experience with large aquarium set ups with fish, turtles, geckos and lizards. Most importantly, I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated while you’re away, and treat your home and belongings with the same care I would want someone to give mine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a playmate, a quiet companion, medication reminders, a cozy place to stay, or simply someone to keep them company—I’m happy to help. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re little members of the family, and they deserve to be treated that way. 🐾 I do not have experience nor am I compatible with aggressive dogs or large dogs who pull on the leash. I hope you find another trusted sitter who can handle your dogs needs. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. My current availability is as such: Flexibility on the weekends and on Wednesdays during the day for regular and drop in-walks, drop-in visits and pet care. Holidays: Same availability and services at a modified fee. I’m also happy to care for pets in my home for doggy daycare care or boarding when the timing is a good fit. I know pets do best with consistency, so I’ll work with you to understand their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. As my schedule changes, I will update my availability as quickly as I can. When you leave your pet in someone else’s care, trust matters. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stick to their normal routines as much as possible, and pay attention to the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and never take shortcuts when it comes to your pet’s safety. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to doing what I say I’ll do. If something unexpected comes up, I’ll communicate with you rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, I understand that your pet isn’t “just a pet.” They’re family. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet—and to feel confident that they were cared for with kindness, patience, and genuine attention while you were gone. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. 🐾
“Jaclyn was great with my cat, Bella. She came at all the right times, made sure she was fed and had enough water, checked her litter every day, spent time, and played with her. I got plenty of pictures reassuring me that she was well taken care of. I would definitely seek out her services should I travel again.”
“Raechel was amazing! She took great care of my cat, Couscous. She went above and beyond, played with him, gave him all the extra attention he needed. She sent me regular updates with pictures and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing that Couscous was happy and well cared for. Thank you!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Baltimore Highlands
Stephenie is amazing person. I contacted her for some drop-in visit for my 3 cats and she did a great job. She is very profesional, responsable and respectful. She is very responsive and comunicative. I'm pretty sure my cats loved her visits while I was on vacations. Absolutely I would uses her services again, I'm very grateful with her and I recommend 100%. Thanks.
Bri was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! She asked good questions and took notes when we met initially and was excited to meet the cats. I have a gregarious kitty and a very shy kitty and I was a little worried about leaving him with a stranger, but Bri met him were he was and earned his trust to where he was coming out to the common areas instead of hiding. She even helped feed our stray cat! Can't praise her highly enough. Thank you so much!
Alex was absoltuely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were doing well and were comfortable. She kept their litter box super clean and was always trying to find them when they were being shy to make sure they were doing good. I also very much appreciate the daily photos and thorough updates!
Jada was fantastic, she will hands down be the only person we book to take care of Jake! He immediately took to her during our meet and greet and was super cuddly, playful, and comfortable which was all a great sign. She responded quickly during booking, and was very communicative leading up to and during the booking. She kept us updated with pictures and how Jake was doing, and took great care of our boy when we were away!
Karla did an amazing job with our brand new puppy! I had to book her last minute which I was nervous about not having met her but she kept us updated along the way, sent a ton of pictures, and reassured us that our babies were taken care of. Will 100% book again!
Sylvia was absolutely wonderful. She’s very communicative and reliable and took wonderful photos of my cat each day. I felt very comforted knowing she was taking such great care of him while I was away. Also, my apartment building requires a fob and has somewhat complicated access and she was able to easily navigate all of those logistics. I will definitely request Sylvia in the future - thank you!

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.
