“We’re so happy we found Heather and Wes. They took time to meet and learn about our dogs and allowed our dogs to get comfortable with them. During our time away we were kept informed with great photos and updates after each visit. We are so excited to have such great people to keep our pups well taken care of and loved while we’re away.”
“Tia was great very patient, she communicated with me about any questions and updates. I was nervous at first leaving my furry friend for more than a week but she put my at ease and provided pictures. Went out her way to do things to calm her down. Would 1000% book again”
“Sophia was able to take care of my 2 dogs on short notice. They aren't very friendly with new people but Sophia won them over. I will use her from now on when I have to be out of town.”
About: I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, routines, and energy levels from energetic pups who love to play and explore to laid-back dogs and independent or cuddly cats who prefer a quieter environment. ❤️ I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and become someone you can count on! Flexible schedule, willing and able to provide check ins, pickup/drop off. I am aware every animal lover has different needs, I can assure great communication and updates as needed. I personally love to go on hikes and long walks. Open large yard ideal for dogs who love to play ball and frisbee. Family friendly dogs are encouraged to stay. Our home does have small children and 2 friendly dogs.
“Kind and compassionate.l! Took the time to learn about our pups and their schedule and was very positive, friendly, and knowledgeable in our meet and greet. Would book again in a heartbeat! Nothing but a positive experience.”

“Luke has been a fantastic sitter for our dogs. He’s really good to them, asks the right questions and does a great job communicating with us. He also helped us out in a bind when an unexpected visiter stopped by! Highly recommend Luke!”
“Thank you so much Yuejia! You did an exceptional job with our senior cat. He loved spending time with you. Thanks for always sending updates and doing a few extra things for us. We would absolutely trust you with Milo again and love to have you look after him. I definitely recommend you to all the cat owners and really appreciate all that you did!”

“Courtney is great! My dogs love her and we have already booked her for more drop in visits next month. She is communicative, timely, and great with rowdy dogs. She followed all of our instructions perfectly. Thanks Courtney!”
“Amara was the best pick for my extended international trip. She went above and beyond watching my two cats. Watering my plants and bringing in my mail without even asking her to. She is clearly a cat lover and it put my mind at ease that they were getting the TLC they needed while I was away.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town.

I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bettendorf
She definitely is a passionate about dogs! Julieta went above and beyond with my dogs. They don’t make friends easily, but she managed to win them over so quickly and easily…🙏🏻💚 We finally found the right person we can trust to take care of our babies…and I’m so grateful for that.
Katherine was super awesome with my rescue who has major trust issues. It's so hard to line up friends and family to let your critters out for potty breaks when you are away. Katherine makes the process much smoother. I felt very comfortable knowing that she was there handle things. She even sent some pics of the dogs!
Jenna and Spencer are the absolute best! They made us feel ultra secure while caring for our pets during our summer vacation. Getting daily messages and pictures of our pets made our vacation more fun, for sure! We will definitely ask them to care for our pets in the future and sincerely recommend Jenna and Spencer to anyone who is concerned about leaving their pets for any amount of time. Dan
Genevieve is an incredibly calm, patient, and gentle sitter who connected instantly with my guinea pigs, even though they are usually very shy and wary of new people. This was the first time we ever felt comfortable leaving our little ones with someone, as we hadn’t found anyone we trusted enough to care for them and give them their medications (Mazapán is a senior piggy with arthritis, and Mocha is prone to developing stones). Genevieve listened carefully as we explained their cage‑cleaning routine, feeding schedule, and special needs, and she stayed in constant communication with me whenever she had a question. We’re so happy we found her, and we absolutely want her to continue being the one who gives them love and care during our future vacations—which will now be more frequent thanks to her!

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.

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.
