“We've used Laura twice now to watch our two cats and she is the best! She's friendly, reliable, thoughtful, and takes the time to locate our scaredy cat that is usually hiding. I highly highly recommend Laura!”
“Kristy is amazing! We had a very thorough meet & greet beforehand so my senior fur baby could get to know her. He instantly fell in low. That’s saying a lot because he’s pretty cranky in his golden years. She followed up with any questions she may have had and sent updates and photos for each visit. I’m definitely requesting Kristy again!”
“Gracie was amazing with our cats and went above and beyond! She even managed to coax our very shy cat into combing, something we struggle with! I felt very reassured by her regular updates and photos. We couldn’t ask for a better experience! We highly recommend her services to other pet owners!”
“Katie is an exceptional animal caretaker. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking proper care for their pets. We’ll definitely be using her services every time we can in the future.”
“Julia was so patient with my little guy! Very knowledgeable about pets. Will book again . Great communication and asked questions to give my boy the best visit !”
“Kiara was great dropping in on my shy cat, Oreo, while I was out of town. She communicated frequently and took many photos. Oreo got more comfortable with her by the last day!”
“Caitlyn jumped in when our previous dog sitter had to cancel last minute. She made the process very easy and took a lot of the stress worrying about our pup before our trip. She communicated quickly and gave great updates! Highly recommend.”
“Wesley is so wonderful. I have a very skittish Mastiff and Wesley went out of his way to bond with him. He took the best care of both my dogs. He was prompt and accommodating. I would recommend him to anyone.”
“Cassy was fantastic! She gave my dogs so much attention and sent me lots of pictures at each visit. I knew they were being well taken care of. I highly recommend her, and of course would have her take care of my dogs again.”
“Brian did a great job with our 2 dogs. Always on time, always providing feedback. My dogs love seeing the Brain and are well cared for. We use Brian all the time. Great job Brian!”
“Fran was so awesome! We will definitely ask her to take care of our babies again. She was communicative and respectful of our space, and it was clear that she cared about our cats very much (and our plants!!). We loved all the updates and pics while we were gone and it felt like we could truly enjoy our trip away. Thanks Fran!”
About: I’ve raised 4 dogs and currently have a golden retriever and cocker spaniel that would like some new friends to play with. I have trained three dogs from the time they were puppies. I have worked as a human healthcare provider and am not averse to administering medications. I’m currently a homemaker and rarely leave home, usually just to run an errand if need be, or attend church. Currently no children in the home. I have a large approximately 1/2 acre semi wooded fenced yard and let the dogs out every 2 hours or so. We live in a quiet neighborhood near Woodlake. We do have a couple crates for our animals that could be utilized to keep your dogs on a routine if necessary.
About: We are Joy and Thomas, and we live on the Southside of Richmond. We have a 9yo lab, Yuki, who loves to meet other dogs. We just got a kitten Cocoa whose stolen our hearts. Together we have decades of experience caring for animals. We live in a great neighborhood which is very dog friendly. We have a large living area where the dogs can hang out. We know how much we cherish Yuki, so we'll treat your dog the same way we’d want her to be treated. Our restrictions are no aggressive dogs, dogs who don’t do well with kiddos or cats, unneutered/spayed and dogs who haven't been potty trained. We can’t wait to serve you! I'm a stay at home mom. Thomas works from home. We are able to be home most of the day. We keep everyone on Yukis schedule unless specified. We are able to handle different care routines. We will walk if requested. We feed on morning/night schedule unless requested. We give treats. We take the dogs out by leash as needed. We crate if you normally crate your dog, if they are getting aggressive towards others, or our home.
“We had a great experience with Thomas! He went above and beyond with Dexter, walking him all over the neighborhood, playing with him in the backyard, and giving him enough exercise to tire him out. The communication was excellent and we’ll be sure to reach out to him in the future!”
About: I have been taking care of my own dogs since I was young and love to be around all animals! I used to nanny for a family with 5 kids and they had a wonderful dog that I always helped to care for! Feeding and taking him to the groomers and vet appointments…all things that I was lucky to get to help with! I also used to care for 2 cats (both needing to take medication) and a bull dog on a daily basis! I have a Jack Russell (that just passed away) myself that I had for about 10+ years and no kids do she was my only fur baby! I have recently in the past year gotten a brand new puppy named Sugar! She is a beagle/terrier/lab mix and 25 pounds of Adorableness! She is so sweet And absolutely my little girl, as she follows me everywhere and tries to be wherever I am, and always under foot!!! She’s a little skittish and still all puppy at eight months! So I am no stranger to puppy needs at all! I also have Bella, who is a pit/beagle mix and she is a little over a year and a half old! She is 60 pounds of crazy but happy and smart and always at my husband side! What a love bug! But remember, with pets, there is no personal space! Lol I love pets of all kinds and will care for them as if they were my own! Snuggles are free!!! I am currently a part-time private nanny, to a bunch of different families who may need care for their little ones day a week, and my schedule is always changing from week to week so my availability will always be changing. But,I will try to keep my Rover calendar up-to-date as I hope more of you reach out! The plan is is turn this into a full-time gig so I will have probably more availability as time goes on towards the end of this year, but I’m hoping to find some regular clients that will book with me on a consistent basis! Plus, I’m really looking forward to all the pet snuggles! I am always very mindful of the time for feedings and walks…any medication will be given correctly and timely…I will make sure your home is locked up after I leave from a walk and/or feeding! Please know that I will do my best to. Gain the trust of the animal! Cats too! I do highly recommend a meet & greet ahead of time so we can meet pet parents and also meet dog(s)! Let’s them see me and hopefully remember me and feel comfortable with me in their house! (*Please note: House Sitting rates apply to stays where overnight accommodations (a clean bed/space) are provided in your home. If you prefer daytime/evening visits only without overnight stays, please book via my Drop-In rates!)
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 16. Dogs, cats, fish, birds, lizards and a rabbit. I have experience in older animals who need medication multiple times a day. I'm currently working part-time with few hours so I have a very flexible schedule and will have plenty of time to meet the need of you and your pet! I stick to a strict schedule if any kind of medicine is involved. Aside from that I am more laid back in my approach to pet-sitting. I love giving treats and extended play times!
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for about 3 decades now. I currently have a GSD who enjoys and is used to having canine companions. I worked as a volunteer at a Florida rescue a few years ago. I just really enjoy the company of dogs, so I don't just do this for them, it's for me also. I always go the extra mile, making sure your pup is happy, safe, and exercised. I'm retired, although I do substitute teaching occasionally. I'm home most of the time, except for usual errands. With advanced notice, I can adjust my schedule. We have a fenced yard, so your pup will have outdoor time, unless you tell me not to. Your dog is free to roam the house, but we can crate your puppy, if needed.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brandermill
Laura has been my senior cat’s sitter for a couple of years now. I continue to have such positive experiences and feel good know my cat and home are are well taken care of with her. From her thoughtful updates, pictures to being very responsive through the app, I am so lucky to have Laura!
Wesley did an amazing job with our pup. He was always on time and spent the correct amount of time with Astro. He was so attentive, he noticed a tremor in our dog and let us know about it (which we were already aware of). He truly cares for your pet as his own! Will definitely book with Wesley again!!
Layla did a fantastic job of taking great care of our outdoor cat. Communicated well, sent photos, took time to have a meet and greet first. Definitely will have her care for our fury friend again. I knew it was a great match as our cat's name is Layla as well, we had a good laugh about that. Great work ethic and just an extraordinary human!
Thomas & family were the perfect pet sitters...They fed, played, sent photos/ videos and definitely exercised my two pups. Mason and Sherlock both were in great spirits the days they visited and I truly appreciate their attention and love they shared with my pups. I will definitely recommend and use them again!! Thank you for being so great!
Nicole has petsit for us numerous times over the past few years. She is great! We highly recommend her. Nicole always arrives on time and follows any directions we leave in writing to properly care for our cats. She takes care of the necessities first and then spends plenty of time interacting with our otherwise shy guys who rarely take to anyone. It's nice to be away and know this is being done by a professional who cares about what she has been entrusted to do. Nicole also sends a short written summary of each visit and pictures. Nicole responds quickly to any initial request for a booking or communication during our trips. We also appreciate that she will grab our mail and bring in any packages. Book Nicole, schedule a meet and great as we are certain you will be equally pleased with her work!
Lauren did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Luna Laruen was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was happy and comfortable while I was away. Laruen sent me pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made it easy to see that Pluto was doing great. When I got home, he was relaxed, happy, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I would definitely book again and plan to do so!
Peyton was Great!! She made time to stop by in advance tomake sure me and Bentley were comfortable with her. It nice to walk her through the steps needed. She was very accommodating and super sweet. Very good communication and no issues. Bentley loved her and we'll definitely use Peyton again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a 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.
