“Sydney was great!! I have two pups and one is reactive to strangers and Sydney was so patient and willing to work with her. I was confident that she would be able to take care of both of the pups! She was communicative provided updates and if I ever need a future dog sitter, she is someone I will definitely be reaching out to and 100% recommend for anyone else looking for a dog sitter in the area”
“Maddie was prompt. She Took photos, videoed and from what I could see Nico loved playing outside with her. She made me feel comfortable with having chosen her to be in my home and helping out when I was in a pinch.”
About: I grew up in a house that always had 2-4 large dogs at any given time. I often took care of them including walks and grooming, and did the same for neighborhood friends and family members as soon as I could ride a bike. In the past few years, I've also spent a lot of time around and caring for cats. As a graduate student, I currently have evenings free to drop in on pets when you're having a long day! My weekends are free for caring for your pets if you're ever out of town or need the hands! I'm comfortable with all kinds of dog and cat situations, and will take care to respect your home and keep your pets safe and cared for in that environment!
“Shadae was very communicative and attentive to mine and Odessa’s needs. I could feel the love she has for her own pets carry over into her care for Odessa. She went the extra mile to ensure Odessa was comfortable. This was the longest I had been away from my pup and I could NOT have asked for a better person to watch over her. 1000/10”
About: I have cared for multiple kinds of pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, guinea pigs, etc. I have worked at two veterinary clinics as well as a pet store. I know the importance of animal care and will ensure that any animal in my care is treated right. I am currently working part time at Aldi in Lafayette and taking classes. I am currently taking only one class online until October and then my schedule will be open. My services will take place at my client's home. Depending on if there are any specific directions, I will care for your pets properly and do what you request.
“Mariana did a great job caring for Cosmo - taking him out for walks and to do his business. She also made sure he got his meds and followed up and got our house key back to us in a timely fashion.”
“The pictures she sent were great and showed Ziti having a wonderful time, she got some porch hangout sessions and tunnel play! Allison is very kind and has great communication. Thanks for taking care of my angel!”
About: Giants are my passion! I have driven to the far side of Texas, Arkansas, Canadian US boarder, Florida, Ocean side of Virginia and everything in between to rescue Giants from all walks of life and age. At the moment I have 4 St. Bernards, 2 Great Danes, a Mastiff and a Terrior Mix; all brought into my home at different times, at random ages and health; today I have a conducive healthy pack whom are open fed without issue. I have children from newborns to the elderly visit or stay without issue. I homeschool my 3 children. Hourly checks made on food supply available, washing and filling water dishes with clean fresh water. Fenced in dog play ground including tunnels, obstacles, shade and lots of sun! Each year we expand our dog park (1/4 of my yard completely fenced in from 3 access points including 2 walk out points from the house) boundaries and/or obstacles with the intent to keep our 4 leg family members safe, healthy, and happy.
About: I've been around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I always played an active role in caring for our family dogs, from daily walks and feeding to playtime and giving them plenty of love and attention. Today, I regularly pet sit and dog walk for friends and family, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I work a full-time schedule from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, but I am available to provide attentive pet care during evenings, overnight stays, and weekends. I'll make sure your dog receives plenty of exercise, affection, and consistent care while following their normal routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for in your home. I provide attentive, personalized care in your home so your dog can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I'll follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels, so I always adapt my care to match their routine and personality. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away, while also treating your home with the same respect I would my own.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently have two huskies of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic, strong, playful dogs and the patience and attention they require. I also have volunteered at the animal shelter walking dogs for the past year! I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels, whether they need an active walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply a little extra attention while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own routines. I’m offering dog walking and drop-in visits! I am currently a Purdue university student in West Lafayette, and I have a very flexible schedule this semester. I am open to routine walks or even day of walks! I treat each dog like they are my own and make sure they are very comfortable with me! I would be more than happy to do a meet and greet with you and your pup before working for you!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! Growing up with pets and living on farms gave me a lifelong love and appreciation for all animals. I treat every pet like family, just like my own, and proudly call my son's Corgi my granddoggy! I would love the opportunity to give your fur babies lots of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles while you're away. Your pets will always be in caring, loving hands! I work from home on my own schedule so I can walk away anytime the at is needed. I also love to have a furry friend sit on my lap or with me as I work. There is always time and room for a friend with me. I am also off work for surgery recovery until the beginning of December so I have lots of free time right now (recovery does not restrict my activity). I treat pets like children in my home. I love to bake homemade doggy treats with peanut butter, oatmeal, and pumpkin. Your fur baby will be by my side at times unless they want some alone time. I also love in a neighborhood on a dead end. Our neighborhood goes in a 2 miles loop se we can walk everyday!

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 .

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.
