“Charlotte was a wonderful sitter and made me feel so comfortable throughout my trip away from my babies (w cats)! Will be booking again the next time I’m away.”
“Margaret is the best the sitter I've come across on this app. So attentive and keeps me updated. Such a peace of mind to have someone like her watching my babies. 100% recommend.”
“Heather is amazing! I have an older dog, who isn't always very comfortable with strangers, but after just a couple visits I could really tell that she was starting to relax. Heather was super responsive and her updates were great! She was even able to add on an additional visit last minute because our plane was delayed. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I had the same dog since I was 9 years old, who passed away a year ago due to cancer. Now that I don’t have him with me, I’d love to show your dog the same attention as I wish I could give mine! Whether that be walks, cuddles, or some extra attention, I’d be more than willing to help! Trust me when I say I’d be just as happy to see your dog, as they will be to see me! I work an 8 am to 4 pm job during the week. On a weekday I’d be willing to see your dog before work, after work, or evenings! And have open availability on the weekends for any time! I will always pay attention to what your dog needs while you’re not there. This includes fill water bowls, food if needed, clean their paws after walks, and change pee pads if needed! I have experience with cleaning up pet waste accidents inside the home and I will always clean up their toys before I go so it’s tidy when you come back!
“Juliana took really good care of my kitty! Halo loved Juliana the moment she met her and I would definitely have Juliana take care of my cat again next time I'm out of town.”
About: I have had dogs in my life since the beginning of time and can’t see myself without one. I love to play and go on walks with them. I have three dogs now and will care for your babies as they are my own. I am available for drop ins or dog walks early morning and evening hours Monday-Friday. Saturday and Sunday available early morning and evenings with some afternoon availability. I am happy to provide any service for comfort of your dog. Walking, playing, brushing, crating etc. I have a fenced in yard and fur babies that love friends
“We asked Dawn to visit our 4 dogs twice a day three times a week. Dawn was great to work with. She was flexible with our odd schedule and all the dogs were very comfortable with her. This was a true pack of four very different dogs. I highly recommend working with her.”
“Coco’s always happy when Amanda comes to visit her. Often she’s reluctant to walk on the first day but not this time! They walked to the park every day and had a good time. It’s great to have a sitter we can trust!”
“Christopher is the best! If you’re looking for a pet sitter, choose him! I know my girls are in such great hands with him and I can relax when I’m away. He leaves great Rover cards with wonderful pictures and lets me know if something seems out of the norm.”
“Stephanie took great care of our older dog during a long weekend. We received regular updates and photos. Stephanie took great care to administer our dog's medicines and to give him love.”
About: I love animals and respect their personalities. I amaze people with how quickly their pets open up to me and fall in love with me. Your pet will be excited to see me and I will treat them with all the care they deserve. I love taking photos of pets and will gladly send you as many as you want I used to take care of my dog every day. We played a game with her every day, including hide-and-seek which I trained her to play. I used to have a cat for years but sadly my wife is allergic I am careful to respect a pet’s boundaries and don’t come on too strong. I pay close attention to the signals they give me and it helps me quickly get familiar with them and have them cuddling up to me in no time.
“Great with our chocolate lab, willing to work with us and honor our requests. Came on short notice when we needed an extra night. Responded quickly and gave updates with every visit.”
About: What sets me apart for other sitters is that I have them enjoy their walks at their own pace. In my years of experience, I have not only taken care of dogs but also cats just to name a few. Every animal is unique in their own way so being kind goes a long way. I like to have the owners as well as the dogs comfortable with me so I obtain as much information from the owners regarding their furry friends as I can. I am currently free to play, drop-in or bring your furry baby home with me. Whatever your pets needs are, I am here to help. I have a big backyard where I normally allow the dogs to run and play. But it does not have a fence in one area where the driveway begins. My home has two floors which the downstairs I use for the dogs to lay down, play or sleep. I do own a dog myself but she isn't allowed to interact with guests dogs unless previously approved by the guests parents first. I also have cameras, where I can capture video and photos to send to the pet parents.
“Bradlei has been amazing! My dog takes a while to warm up to new people and she’s not only been kind, but patient and understanding to his needs. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to have their fur babies taken care of without having to worry!”
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my extensive hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and my ability to provide specialized care. I have a 12-year-old dog that I personally trained and continue to care for through his senior years, managing complications from old age and two ACL tears With dedicated rehab and treatment. In addition to this, I rescued two kittens when they were only two days old, bottle feeding them for months after losing their mother. I’ve also worked on a horse ranch where I trained and rescued horses, and took care of a range of animals, including pigs, goats, cattle, chickens, and more. My experience with hunting dogs and my background in animal rehab rehabilitation further sets me apart, as I understand, the unique needs for each animal, and I’m committed to providing the best care possible. Whether it’s training, senior care, or helping with recovery from injury, I bring compassion, expertise, and a deep love for animals to every sitting experience. I’m currently a student athlete at Lewis University with most of my weekday availability in the mornings and evenings. My weekends are typically available as well. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize respect and attention to detail. I always ensure your properties is treated with almost care, keeping everything clean and organized. I follow any specific instructions you provide, whether it’s maintaining routines, administering medications, or adhering to house rules.

Meredith was fantastic! My cat can be very shy, but from all the pictures she took, it’s clear Meredith was able to quickly get her out of her shell and enjoying herself during her visits. Meredith was very reliable and adaptable as well, helping me deal with a prolonged power outage due to heavy storms. I can’t recommend her enough!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
