“Valerie was a great help. It gave me a peace of mind while I had to work late all week. And I know my babies enjoyed it. And Roxie (the Bassett), loved her time with Stetson, her son. She received many tummy rubs from him. Stetson now has a friend for life. LOL. And I was so happy to hear that Dixie behaved herself. She is my mischievous one. And yes I would use Valerie again.”

“Riley was great with Harper B! Riley came by to meet Harper before the drop-in visit. It's clear she has experience with dogs and is easy-going. The day-of, she sent me many photos of Harper having a great time playing in the yard. And when I came home, Harper was relaxed and calm because she'd had such fun mid-day with Riley.”

There was an unexpected occurrence during her visit, she notified me immediately and performed additional services. She went above and beyond and I am so grateful. She is worth every penny. She was joined by her very knowledgeable fiancé. I will definitely be utilizing their valuable skills in the future!”

“Cole was put in a situation that could have ended badly for all involved. The neighbors let their dog roam knowing it’s history as an aggressive dog. Cole was quick thinking and handled the situation very well. His communication and quick action saved the day. I can’t say enough about Cole and his professionalism and communication”

About: I have had dogs and cats as pets for all of my life. I love to be where animals are and take care of them like my own. Being able to be a comfort person to your own pets is what brings me joy! I am a teacher and will be starting school on August 3rd. As of now my schedule is open, but once August comes my schedule will change to being available after 4:15pm and weekends! Thanks for looking at my profile and I would be glad to meet your little ones :) I have a dog at home that is reactive to other animals, so all home sitting will be at clients house. When there I make sure I treat the space and the animals as if it/they were my own.

About: Prior to college I worked Noah's Caring Hands on Sunnyside Road as a pet care specialist. I worked there for almost 4 years, and I am experienced in all ranges of dog/cat ages and needs. Additionally, I have experience administering medication to animals and following specific dietary needs. I am experienced with daycare and boarding animals, and would be more than happy to care for your furry friend! I am available to cat/dog sit and walk for a majority of the weekends or evenings! I am pretty flexible after 4 pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I had a 17 year old dog whom I administered medications and treatments for throughout his long lifespan. Additionally I have a kitten. While my dog was alive he enjoyed hugs and kisses especially after medication time! After working with him for years and the other animals at the veterinary hospital I have become used to all age ranges and medical needs of each animal (cat and dog).

About: I have dog sat for several families for about a year now and it is my favorite thing to do. Dogs truly are a man’s best friend and all pets for that matter. I am currently in nursing school looking for an extra way to make money! I have previously house sat for many dogs of all ages and breeds even puppies and older dogs with disabilities. I have also watched turtles, cats, and fish. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I am currently in nursing school so dog sitting between and after classes is perfect for me! During breaks I dog sit/walk full time as well as babysit. As a dog owner myself, I know how important our fluffy friends are. Safety is a top priority and I will ensure your pet is safe and happy!

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid, and animals have always had a special place in my heart. I have a gift for connecting with pets I'm meeting for the first time — even the shy or standoffish ones tend to warm up to me quickly. I raised my own dog for 13 years, guiding him through anxiety issues from puppyhood all the way into adulthood, so I understand firsthand how much patience and consistency can matter. I know how important feeding schedules and medication routines are, and I make sure they're followed carefully and on time, every time. Through pet sitting apps, I've cared for a wide variety of dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs — nothing has been too much to handle. I lead with patience, adaptability, and a genuine love for animals. A quick note on availability: between my work schedule and time with my daughter, I'm away from home between 9am and 6pm daily. I'm a great fit for pets who are comfortable being on their own during that window, and I'll make sure they're well cared for and comfortable before and after. I'm also proud to be LGBTQ+ friendly and welcome clients from all walks of life. Building trust is everything to me — I want you to feel confident that your pet (and your home, if I'm house sitting) is in caring, capable hands. I am generally open to anything my time slots provide. Overnights should not be an issue but will need to be talked about prior to booking. I do NOT have have a place to house dogs so currently I am only a house sitter. Please let me know if you have any questions! I used to care for 2 dogs and a cat while i was with my wife but now i just have the cat. The cat is very much self sufficient, although she does revel in all the pets that we have to offer, but the dogs take more work! I love to take dogs on walks in the various parks around where i am living and will do the same for yours! If you have favorite spot let me know about it!! I can incorporate a walk there for your pups if you would like!

About: Hi! My name is Rebekah, and I would love to help take care of your animal! I am currently work full time in social media, and use Rover as a way to earn money on the side while spending time with furry friends! I have grown up with pets my entire life, and have previously worked in the salon at PetSmart. During my time at PetSmart I primarily worked with dogs, and have no issues handling all types of dogs, both big and small. Growing up I always had at least three cats in the house, and now have two fur babies of my own. Because of this I feel extremely comfortable handling both dogs and cats, and assisting you with whatever you may need! The nature of my job allows flexibility throughout the week during the day, so while I intend to primarily schedule services after work hours, if your pet needs more than one visit or a visit at a specific time I’m more than happy to work with you on that! Safety is my number one priority when taking care of your furry friend. I always ensure that I know where the pet I am caring for is at all times while I am checking in, I open doors slowly and keep an eye on any pets as I enter or exit your home, and I ensure I am familiar with your pets routine prior to arriving at your home. While on walks I make sure to place myself between your pet and the road, and I also make sure to avoid dogs I don’t know. I do my absolute best to make my stay with your pet fun, comfortable, and safe!

My girls Kora and Binx love Lexi. She took fantastic care of them for 12 days back in December 2025 and I was pleased to rebook her for a short visit today. She is prompt, treats my house like it was her own, and is so good with my sometimes fiesty pit mix Kora and my cat Binx. Highly recommend.

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.
