About: I’ve had pets my entire life, especially dogs. My first pup was an Irish Setter when I was just four, and over the years my family rescued many dogs — including plenty of Basset Hounds — so I’m comfortable with all kinds of breeds and personalities. I’m now a cat owner as well — it’s a new experience, but one I’ve grown to love. At the moment, I’m available nearly every day, including weekends, thanks to a flexible work schedule. I’m happy to work around your needs and adjust as things come up. My kids are fully grown, so I have some more time on my hands! I’m completely comfortable crating dogs when needed, and I’m confident handling daily walks, potty breaks, and general exercise routines to make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and well‑cared for.
“Sarah was punctual and took wonderful care of Penny and Pepper (aka pippa). She put my mind at ease with regular updates and snapshots which I loved! I definitely recommend her and plan to book with her again.”
“Justine was very great with doggies. She had great communication and was very punctual. She gave the dogs great attention and took very good care of them. I would recommend her to anyone for services with their loved ones.”
“Jared was super awesome! He gave my dogs all the extra love they could ever want while I was gone and was so respectful of my super anxious dogs boundaries (a rarity I’ve found). They were clearly super comfortable with him immediately and he kept me updated with all the household dog happenings!”
“Heather was so accommodating to our fur baby! She was flexible and very communicative. We will definitely use her in the future and would highly recommend her if you need care.”
“Alison is the reason we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She was consistent, dependable, communicative, and instantly trusted by us and our dog. We will absolutely leverage her services again in the future.”
“Jenna took great care of our pets in-house. She visited twice daily to feed, play with and walk our two dogs. She also took care of our exotic European Teddy Bunny. Great communication, pictures, etc. would definitely recommend.”
About: I've been around dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, so spending time with animals has always been a natural part of my life. Growing up with pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities taught me that every animal has unique needs, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable and happy. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust goes into leaving a furry family member with someone else. That's why I take the time to stick to their routine, pay attention to the little details, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you're away. Whether they're full of energy, a little timid, or simply happiest relaxing at home, I'll meet them where they are and treat them like part of my own family. My goal is for you to return to a happy companion and feel confident knowing they were in caring, dependable hands. Fortunately, the summer schedule has allowed me to be wide open for any boarding and day drop ins as needed. Plus, I have my own animals, so pet care is an everyday routine in my household. I have a large fenced in yard and a goofy doggo to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog and/or mine if needed.
“Mimi seemed just fine when we got home last night. Quinn sent daily photos which were nice to see while we were away and missing her. We were grateful that she hadn't shredded the sofa or the carpet, or anything. And Quinn mucked out the litter box, which wasn't on my Rover list, so thanks for that! The house key was right where I asked that it be left. Besides being available over the holiday weekend, Quinn was very accommodating for times and for meet-and-greet. I hope she'll be available to sit for Mimi in the future.”
“Julie, did a drop in visit for my mini poodle. She is sweet and flexible. I feel fortunate that I can trust her with my dog. I will continue to call upon Julie when I need help with my dog.”
“Abigail helped us out last minute due to a last minute cancellation. She was punctual and responsive. Dobby was happy to see her and we would definitely hire her again!”
About: Dear Pet owners, My name is Dave and have been watching pets now for about 10 years on and off. Mostly local and for friends and family. Now that I've discovered Rover I'd like to branch out a bit and meet new four-legged friends and their owners too. I enjoy taking dogs for walks around their neighborhoods, local conservation sites and to the beaches in the off-season. I've taken care of both cats and dogs and houses and plants too, at all times of the year. I know the area fairly well and I enjoy the elements no matter what they bring here in New England. I'm good at following specific diet rules as many of our pets are picky and some may get sickly otherwise. I enjoy playing with pups and lounging with the older dogs too. I'm fairly flexible when it comes to where I'm staying if it's overnight and not shy when it comes to cleaning up after a pets mess here and there. Overall I like dogs and cats, we seem to get along well and we often have a good time and they are always well taken care of while they're owners are away.

I have plenty of time to fully attend to your dogs every need- plenty of exercise and attention! I have lots of availability to fit in all the needs of your dog that they may need! Morning, afternoon or nightly walks, play or over night care. My pets are greatly cared for in my home, I would also treat your fur baby as one of my own in your home or mine
“Julia was incredible with our dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog services. She sent pictures, gave us regular updates, and they seemed to really enjoy being with her.”
About: My life has included dogs for as long I can remember and I have always seemed to read them intuitively, including “problem dogs” that others have difficulty interacting with. I have extensive personal dog handling and grooming experience over the past 25 years and have owned up to 6 dogs at a time. I currently have a 10 year old Chihuahua-mix named Kitty but I have experience training and caring for Border Collies, American Pit Bull Terriers, Staffordshire Terriers, Irish Terriers, Wire Fox Terriers, Poodle mixes, Great Danes, and a Wolf-German Shepherd hybrid. I am knowledgeable about canine body language and how to remain calm around anxious/fearful/aggressive dogs as well as how to redirect dogs from potential conflicts. I own and operate an event-services business which runs primarily on the weekends, allowing me to offer dog care Monday through Friday and on certain weekends as available. I am able to care for dogs according to their owner’s needs and requests. This may include administering medication, changing diapers, feeding, walking or just spending time with.
About: I have 3 years of experience of taking care of dogs including feeding, walking and playing! I have had my dog for almost 10 years and have learned some skills in training. I work 8-hour work days Mon-Fri. I get an hour for lunch so I can walk your dog at least 3 times a day! Can take your pet on adventures (hikes, dog park, etc) on weekends! At my home, I have an energetic dog who would be a great playmate to your furry friend! At clients home, I will follow any rules/restrictions that are required and will keep your furry friend in good company!

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.
