“Stacey was quick to respond to a last minute request. She was patient with our puppy, who is large and can be a handful. She left detailed notes and gave our pups lots of love. She communicated very clearly and kept us in the loop with their care.”
“Julie and Elijah and family are the best and dealing with Rover is very easy and a great value. I’m spoiled by the care Ava gets when they care for her and I know she loves them also. I highly recommend Julie for all your pet or house sitting needs. Thanks for everything. Tom n Lisa & Ava 🙏❤️”
“Rylee is very kind with animals and does a great job spending time with your pets. She took care of our three cats and all went well. We have one antisocial cat and we chose her because of annother review suggesting she was good so we tried her out. Our cat did warm up to her a bit which was great. She sends pictures and communicates daily.”
“Fantastic, had to book last minute and he saved us from cancelling our trip. Also cleaned up my dogs mess when she puked instead of leaving it like most do. Very much appreciated.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Maddie was a wonderful dog sitter for us! She was able to accept our booking last-minute when our usual sitter wasn't available for a trip. Our dog immediately liked her and I could tell he didn't miss us when we were gone! She was very thoughtful with our 2 cats too even though we only booked her for the dog, and very respectful of our home as well. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Madeline- definitely worth booking for your pet!”
About: Hi, I’m Shelbee—your pet’s next favorite human (and hopefully your go-to sitter, too)! I’ve always had a soft spot for animals and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog loves long walks and endless games of fetch or your cat prefers quiet company and chin scratches, I’m happy to meet them where they’re are and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful because I’d feel the same way! That’s why I focus on making the experience as easy and reassuring as possible. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and honest communication, so you’ll never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’m reliable, patient, and detail-oriented, so I’ll happily stick to your pet’s routine, administer basic care exactly as instructed, and make sure they get all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. My goal is simple: for you to leave feeling completely confident, and for your pet to have so much fun they can’t wait for my next visit. I can’t wait to meet you both! 🐾 I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM, which makes me available most evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible and always aim to be dependable, communicative, and on time. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, a walk, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your fur baby is a big decision, so I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your home clean and secure, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable and cared for.
About: I am good at handling dogs. I care very deeply about animals and will always do my best to make sure your dog is happy I am in college so doing this would help me earn a little bit of money but still be able to do my school work I have my own dog who is very friendly and he’s a very happy dog I would take great care of your dog or cat
“10/10 would recommend. She is very easy to communicate with and you can tell she cares about your animals. This is the 2nd time we have booked her and will 100% continue to book her.”
About: Having owned many dogs over many years, from a dachshund to a large lab mix, I am comfortable with all ages and sizes. I have worked with professional trainers to learn how to teach basic leash skills and good manners, so I am happy to work with your dog if they need some extra practice. 🙂 Most recently I owned a Shetland sheepdog/beagle mix that unfortunately passed away from cancer at the age of 13. I can’t get a new dog quite yet, but I am ready to be your dog’s new best friend! I am currently working part-time so I have a pretty open, flexible schedule during the week to play with, walk, or even bathe your pup! I know how important your pets are and I strive to keep their safety and happiness at the top of my priority list. I can check in on your pets during the day to give them a quick potty break, or I can give them a nice walk to get some energy out.
“Miranda is wonderful! She was very responsive to my messages, sent tons of adorable pictures of my cats, and went above and beyond my expectations by bringing cute toys for the kitties to play with and vacuuming the area around the litter box. I highly recommend booking her to care for your pets.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail and the level of care and communication I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, or medication. I prioritize clear, ongoing communication by regularly checking in with owners, sending updates and photos, and making sure they feel confident about how their pets are doing. I’m also happy to help with small errands, such as picking up pet supplies or essentials, to make time away as stress-free as possible. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with care and respect. Not scared of dirty work, cleaning litter boxes, wiping paws and administering meds. I currently work from home part time and have a flexible schedule. So I I have a lot of flexibility, for overnights and dropping by during the day. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, dietary needs, exercise, and daily routines. Care includes providing fresh water, playtime, walks if needed, companionship, and administering medications as directed. I also maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and pet areas, and I ensure the home is left tidy and secure after each visit. I prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being while providing regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

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.
