About: I grew up with animals in my home for 25 years, both puppies and seniors! 💛 I have my own dog that I adopted from SPCA back in 2021. He is such a cuddle bug! He also gets along with all children and animals!😊 He is trained by me, but sometimes I think he has me trained too haha! I will work with all breeds and sizes! 🥰 I have worked at several different boarding/daycare facilities with many different breeds, personalities, medical conditions, and food requirements. 💗 I have given oral/injection medication as well! I understand a dog’s body language very well and understand if things need to be taken slow with your fur baby💕☺️ ‼️I will work with aggressive dogs to a certain extent, with an increase in price‼️ Book any day, any time (we can always adjust the times in conversation!) I am more than happy to check in and/or walk your loving pup! <3 I am always respectful and thoughtful! ☺️ Animals are my FAVORITE in the world, they bring me so much happiness, no matter the species or breed!🐾 I have always wanted to work in the animal industry, specifically in the zoology department!
“Kelly did an incredible job taking care of our babies. We felt good leaving them in her hands. She sent the cutest pictures and was consistent with her check in times. We would use her again 100 times!”
“Debra was attentive, leaving great notes and photos each day so that I would be updated and kept in the loop. I was also lucky that she was able to work in my last minute job and offered to come by for a very last minute meet and greet which was so very appreciated! I would highly recommend!”
“Avery is amazing!! The only cat sitter I hire. She is attentive and loves my cats. She keeps me informed and sends lots of pictures. My vacations are so much more enjoyable knowing she is checking on them daily. I will never use anyone else. She is the best!!”
“My wife and I were so nervous about leaving our anxious cat that we almost cancelled our vacation altogether. Daniela put our minds at ease by going above and beyond with her care and her updates. We knew our kitty was in good hands when we got the daily videos of her playing and eating and snuggling. I can’t recommend Daniela enough - she is patient and kind and we felt so much better while we were gone because we knew she was taking such great care of our cat.”
“Laura did an amazing job taking care of our dog, cat, and kitten while we were away. She provided detailed updates with photos every day, was always responsive and available whenever we had questions, and clearly treated our pets with genuine care and attention. We came home to three happy, relaxed pets, which gave us great peace of mind throughout our trip. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter, and we will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who treats every dog like family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust and make each walk a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise, as well as senior dogs who may prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m attentive to body language and behavior and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort at all times. Whether your dog needs an active walk, some extra exercise and playtime, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash preferences, and other special needs. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. I'm currently in a remote position making my scheduling flexible, thus my schedule is open all 7 days throughout the week. I look forward to hearing what you need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect while making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. For walks, I use safe leash-handling practices and stay attentive to my surroundings, other animals, traffic, and anything that could make a pet uncomfortable or unsafe. I never rush a dog and adjust the pace and length of the walk based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet has access to fresh water and anything else you’ve provided for their care. I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit and communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being cared for as if they were my own.
“Dave was very friendly, punctual, well groomed, and dependable. He came to our home for the meet and greet, and the animals responded very well to him, so we knew that he would be great. He sent pictures, he took our dog for walks, and we would definitely recommend him to anyone.”
“Hope C. is so great! She was responsible, and responsive while watching our two cats. Hope was great with our cats, and keeping them nourished! I would absolutely ask Hope C. to watch our cats again!”
“Victoria is the best! She is so easy to communicate and really cares about the pets! She took the best care of our 2 dogs and sent amazing pictures! I can tell both boys loved her!”
“Hayleigh was a dream to work with! She was very flexible when my schedule changed and took amazing care of my babies. She took a lot of pictures and spent ample time with them both! Will definitely book with her again !”

I work at crumbl part time(2pm-10:3pm and 3-11:3weekends) I can visit 2 times a day providing exercise and games to keep your pets active. Im particular about my work, and I will keep an eye out for anything out of place In my clients house I play fetch, clean the water bowl every 2-3 days, and ensure it is a clean and enjoyable environment per personality.
“Alyssa was absolutely wonderful with our babies! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved her company. We’re so grateful to have found her and would trust her again in a heartbeat!”
About: Hey, my name is Maddie! I am a firefighter and absolutely love dogs! I have several years of experience with dogs of all kind. I currently have two dogs. One West Highland Terrier, Rocky and one Corgi, Rogue! Ever since I was little I have loved dogs more than most people! I even have experience with diabetic dogs as our oldest dog Coconut was diagnosed when he was 6 - I had to give insulin shots twice a day and he lived a long and happy life until he passed at 15. I promise your dog will be in great hands with me and I will treat them no less than my own! 🤍 I look forward to hearing from you and getting to know and love your animals! I will send photos, videos and check up texts throughout your dogs walk/ stay or when I go check on them. Thank you for choosing me! I am a firefighter and have a good amount of time off during the week. Looking to do some extra dog watching and care taking ❤️ I am very good with animals and love to bond with them. I enjoy playing with their favorite toys, taking them for walks or just enjoying some free snuggles!
“Jessica was attentive, sincere, and happy to engage our cat above and beyond our expectations. We had just laid out for her to feed and make sure he got his pill, but she also spent time socializing, playing, and even cleaned out the cat box without us asking her to. We thought he loved us, until we saw the photos she sent from her visits. She won him over and surely made our absence more bearable for him. 11/10 will contact again next time we need a cat sitter!”
“Mitch is the BEST! If you are debating who to use; use Mitch! He was able and willing to take over providing care for my dog last minute after the previous Rover sitter left my dog alone for over 24 hours. He made sure my dog was safe and given love and care. Mitch was a quick and clear communicator. Mitch sent me lots of pictures, videos and updates. Whole heartedly recommend Mitch!!”

Exceptional! David took care of our two dogs & 3 cats during a short vacation for our family. He was available to us relatively last minute, handled our (at times) difficult pup with patience and excellent care (they became fast friends!), and kept us fully updated with check-ins and photos. And on the day of our return when our flight was delayed then cancelled, David accommodated two additional visits very literally at the last minute. We were so grateful for his availability and care! There’s not enough gratitude I could extend here and highly recommend his care. Thank you David, again, for going above and beyond for our crew!

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.

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.
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.
