“Haylle did a great job taking care of our cat during a week long vacation. Our cat is super shy with strangers, but surprisingly warmed up to Haylle in just a day! We will definitely rebook.”
“Maura is AMAZING! She was so attentive to detail, planned ahead for any potential problems that could possibly happen, and she was very communicative with me. She was very prompt to every single check in with my cat and gave her a ton of loving. We will definitely be using her services again - thank you so much Maura!!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommend Karen! Karen is absolutely wonderful with my two high‑energy girls, Rosie (Golden Retriever) and Annie (Boykin Spaniel). They light up every time they see her. She sends great photos, takes them on proper walks, and handles their energy with ease. Communication is always smooth, and she comes in and out of the house respectfully with zero issues. I trust her completely with my dogs — they’re happy, safe, and well cared for every time she’s here.”
“This was my second time using Libby to drop in on my sassy cat, Doug, and I will rebook her again and again! She goes above and beyond with caring for him and giving him treats and attention. She also pulled in our trash barrel and brought in mail and Amazon packages- a great touch for details that I didn’t even think about when going on vacation! Thank you, Libby, for caring for Doug like your own!”
“I cannot recommend Raquel enough. Leaving my dog in someone else’s care is not something I take lightly, I genuinely don’t trust just anyone with him, but she completely exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment she offered to chat, I felt a sense of ease and reassurance. She treated my dog like her own, giving him so much love, attention, and care. I received regular updates, photos, and little check-ins that meant the world to me and truly showed how invested they were in his well-being. When I came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely connects with animals. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and incredibly kind, she is it. An absolute gem of a human being.”
“Ashley did an amazing job caring for my two dogs during several drop-in visits over the weekend! She was incredibly communicative, friendly, and provided detailed updates with each visit, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dogs were well cared for and received plenty of attention. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
“Amy was a dream caretaker! She went above and beyond to watch our two GSPs for 8+ days. She even kept an eye out for our cat and snake out just of kindness to make sure they were ok too. :) Her communication was so thorough, forthcoming and frequent. Amy was always super fast to respond, from the initial booking request to the very end when she went an extra mile to help us in a pinch when we had flight delays. Amy is a quintessential professional who was just the sweetest with our pets. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again! Thank you a million, Amy!!!”
“Carol took such great care of our cats. Her updates were so detailed with adorable pictures and suggestions. She was so kind and easy to work with. Our kitties were in great hands which made me feel so much better about leaving them”
About: My lifelong bond with animals began in childhood, growing up surrounded by pets who felt more like siblings than animals. This immersive upbringing allowed me to develop a deep empathy for them and a unique ability to read their subtle cues. To me, pets aren't just animals we keep—they are individuals capable of profound companionship. Animals easily recognize me as a friend, sensing that I am someone who genuinely respects their space, understands their needs, and loves them just for who they are. My sister would drive 10 miles everyday to drop her puppy off with me, despite closer friends and family who wanted to care for him. She knew he would be the center of my attention and she would never have to worry. I own a small chocolate business and chauffeur kids to and from school and activities makes it difficult to have a basic 9 to 5 and I miss being around dogs We no longer allowed pets in our home so any sitting I do will be at the pet owners. The type of pet care depends on the pets demeanor. If they are used to close attention or hate being alone. Then we chilling together, if they are more like a cat but still need supervision I won't cramp their space. They just know someone's around when needed or to keep it off trouble When my sister had her puppy that everyone wanted to sit.. she drove out of her way to bring to me, I was the only one she knew he was in great hands
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have house sat and pet sat for family members and friends. I love animals and have experience with dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I also have experience administering medication. I have helped care for a dog with epilepsy who took many medications and my current dog takes medications as well. I also work in a doggy day care where I take care of many different types of dogs with different needs. I am currently working part time and in school. I’m at work and school between 8am and 5pm. Some days I get off earlier. I can house sit weekends and walk dogs weekends and evenings. If needed, I can house sit during the week but I won’t be there all day. I do not currently have any dogs at my home. I rent and I’m not allowed to have pets, but I do have a fenced in back yard. When it comes to taking care of someone else’s dog, I can supervise them in the backyard if needed, and hopefully take them on walks or to the dog park.
“Yuliya agreed to care for my pups with only a days notice. I was frantically attempting to book someone due to an event that came up that I had to attend. She provided them love and care and also took numerous photos as she knew that I missed them. She also brought in my parcels and gave my pups all their medications. I highly recommend Yuliya and her excellent services!”
About: I’m very good at following diet restrictions (Example: Our family dog requires sweet potato and chicken in her food, cooked and chilled after cooking.) Currently, my availability is 3 weekdays. I work remotely with a mostly flexible schedule, so that leaves me with enough time to do drop-ins and/or dog walks! A typical drop-in involves letting your pup outside to potty, temporary playtime if possible, and feeding them (with ingredients provided beforehand by the customer).
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Bedford is $20

I have nothing but great things to say about Libby. You can tell she really cares for your pets with how great she treats them. We have re booked her for hour drop in visits multiple times now due to her exceptional service. Libby makes sure to hydrate, provide snacks, and play with my 2 pets while we are away at work for long hours.
Cordie was very prompt & followed my instructions. I have no hesitation rebooking Cordie again should my needs require it. As Cordie fed, watered, played with and bonded with Gia over the course of her time hired for drop in visits and for that I sincerely thank her.
Karen has been such a highlight to my girl’s day! Karen gives Josey all the love and attention she wants, while making sure she does her business, gets exercise, and plenty of water in this heat! I’m so glad I found Karen, my days go by much smoother knowing my doggie is in good hands.
Amanda was very patient, empathetic, effective & loving in caring for our pets Kiky She spent several hours with our dog Kiky and the cat Gabo., she sent pictures and updates about the pets in a daily basis. The face of the pets look happy and relax. We are very grateful with Amanda, for taking care of our pets on a very professional way. With any doubt about it we will you contact Amanda again to assistance in the near future. THANKS SO MUCH AMANDA for all your support.
Michaela was awesome! My cats are aging so don’t feel comfortable leaving them for long periods of time without care anymore. Michaela came in every other day and checked on my babies while we were on vacation, and she did a wonderful job with communicating and sending pics of our girls. The peace of mind she gave us was worth every penny!
This was our second time booking with Carol, and she was just as wonderful as the first! She took amazing care of our two cats, Lionel and Mars, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos and messages, which we always appreciate. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and Lionel and Mars were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we got home. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Carol again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Carol!
Sharolyn was the perfect pet sitter. My 19 year old cat had special needs and they were no problem for Sharolyn. I was so happy to meet her. I could tell that she really loved animals and that made me feel good about leaving town. No worries. She also has such a nice personality and is easy to talk to.
Yuliya agreed to care for my pups with only a days notice. I was frantically attempting to book someone due to an event that came up that I had to attend. She provided them love and care and also took numerous photos as she knew that I missed them. She also brought in my parcels and gave my pups all their medications. I highly recommend Yuliya and her excellent services!

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 .

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.
