“Anne has been routinely visiting our new puppy Penny (7 month old Cavapoo) for the last few months. Anne visits Penny in our home twice per day, and she is consistently on time. Depending on the weather, Anne will either walk Penny or play with her inside and let her out for potty breaks. Anne has been absolutely amazing to work with. She is highly responsive and on a few occasions made herself available on short notice when something pops up in our schedule. I can’t say how much my wife and I (who both work/study full time) appreciate Anne! She gets along great with Penny and we love the thorough rover cards she submits after each visit (including picture!). If you are looking for pet sitting services in the local Brighton area, we would absolutely recommend Anne! Thank you so much Anne! We look forward to continue working with you throughout the summer.”
“I have a modified automated cat feeder and a few smart home setups that I was worried would be too intricate to explain to someone else, but Heather handled everything perfectly; she absolutely went above and beyond! She was very responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures while I was away. I'm planning another trip soon and will certainly book with her again!”
“Kathy did a fantastic job taking care of cat and hermit crabs. Excellent communication and lots of pictures. Made leaving for a long time easier knowing she was in great care. Highly recommend. Thank you!!”
“I booked same-day when I noticed an issue with my cats’ water fountain before my flight home, and Katie replied quickly that she could help! She fixed the fountain and even took extra time to give them wet food and some love and attention. I was so relieved knowing their fountain was working and that they would be good until I got home. Would book again!”
“Loren is awesome! Our plans changed due to weather and Covid. Loren was flexible and thoughtful. I’m always anxious about leaving my dogs and cat but with Loren I knew they were well taken care of putting my mind at ease.”
“Erin took fantastic care of our senior pets! She always was on time and spent any extra time exercising our dog. She was a wonderful rover we will definitely be trying to book her again next time we’re away!”

“We are so grateful for the incredible care our dog received! She stepped in to help us on very short notice, and from the very beginning she went above and beyond. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was not only well cared for, but also happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. Her kindness, reliability, and genuine care for animals truly stood out. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life from small to large breeds. We always had dogs as I was growing up and continue to have dogs now. I am very flexible with my schedule, so I have time for all activities including going for walks and getting them the exercise they need. I am home every day with a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate your pets' needs throughout the day. I am also available on short notice. I can handle large and small dogs alike. I will make sure they get the exercise and affection they need while also attending to the basics. Weather it's going for a jog or a walk, I will make sure your pet is safe and happy.
About: I had three rescue dogs of my own, two have since passed but we have taken my MILs dog since her passing so we have two dogs currently and three cats! I love animals and have been caring for them since I was a child growing up and always having a pet to care for made me very dependable and well mannered when it comes to training. I am experienced with animal rehabilitation and am comfortable with all animals but do have two young children in the home. Dogs that stay with us will have a designated heated and cooled space to sleep in. I am home all day during the day, am able to let animals out at any time as I have a large fenced in yard. We have cameras and a covered deck as well for complete safety and security for the animals. I am available for stop in visits, walking or general care. I work from home so am available to care for my children and pets. I have a flexible work schedule and am able to adjust it to meet my needs. I love animals, truly and honestly. I am patient and consistent and will ensure that your pet is cared for, safe and loved while under my care.
About: I have always had a big heart for animals since I was a little girl. Constantly helping with my family’s dogs and now that we’re all older and on our own, my siblings still choose me to help oversee care for their dogs when they’re out of town. I have past experience as a vet assistant (little over a year.) With this I have learned just how different each dog, or cat, can be and therefore I can approach care that is best fitted for them :) I’m a flight attendant so I’m gone 4-5 days at a time but tend to be home an average of 15 days a month. With this type of schedule it allows me to have plenty of free time to keep myself active and having a little friend to walk with would just add to it! I’m currently just a cat owner but do go take care of my siblings and parents dogs. They all have big yards that allow for them to play catch with a ball or just sniff around. Also have good areas to walk each of their dogs to keep them moving!
“I can't say enough positive things about Christina! She was reliable, conscientious, and provided exceptional care for my two cats, one of whom has special needs. She provided daily updates so I could rest assured that my fur babies were doing well while I was away. Whether you have cats, dogs, or other pets, I highly recommend Christina as a top-notch caregiver. Your pets will thank you for it...and you will thank Christina!”
About: I am an animal lover who loves to get outside. I’ve had cats or dogs my whole life, and love any day I get to see a fluffy face. I enjoy for walks, giving a good ear scratch, throwing the ball/stick, and giving shy pets their space. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and a variety of personalities. I work 3 days a week so have plenty of time throughout the week to schedule walks or pop ins! If you have questions please let me know. I currently have two cats that are spoiled rotten. I enjoy going for walks and being part of the pack. Happy to chat and get to know you and your pets needs!
“Melissa was absolutely fantastic with our Great Pyrenees! She was prompt, professional, and provided reports and photos after each visit. It was a relief to know our big boy was well taken care of while we were out of town for the weekend. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 18 years now. I usually help family and friends when they go out of town. Pets are like family and should be treated as such and that is something I value in my care. I work full-time in grocery retail, typically on the early morning shift. This means I am completely done with work by mid-afternoon and have the rest of the day, evening, and night entirely open to focus on your pet! For house sitting or boarding, your pet will be safely left for an 8-hour stretch during the day while I am at the store, but they will get plenty of exercise and attention before I leave and the absolute maximum amount of love, long walks, and playtime the moment I get home. If I’m in a clients home, I will do what the client says is most best for their loved one. I aim to make sure each pet is cared for and comfortable in their environment.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
Kelena was exactly what we'd hoped for. Had a last minute cancellation for boarding our 2 dogs. Which left us in a panic. We had one week before our event, and to make it even worse, it was Memorial Day weekend. Rover sent a list of drop-in sitters to help. Kelena responded very quickly to our request. Had a very successful meeting, the dogs loved her! On the day of the event, she came at the appointed time, sent pictures of our dogs, so we knew she got in okay, and fed and watered them. So when we returned home, all was well. She's a gem, very good with our dogs. Will definitely use her service again.
Milo was super prompt in all communication and so warm and caring! He was on time with the meet and greet and all visits. I appreciate all the photos and notes while I was gone. My shy cat warmed up to Milo by the second visit. I trust him and will book with Milo again soon!

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 .

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
