“Markie did a great job with our cats while we were away. We know they got lots of love and attention and everything was tip-top when we got back! Would recommend!”
“Thank you, Deanna, for taking care of our three dogs over the last couple days. Everybody was in good spirits when we got home. The dog seemed to enjoy spending time with you. We look forward to using you again when we travel.”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Candy provides for our dog Sophie. At 13 years old, Sophie has unique needs, and Candy handles them with remarkable patience, kindness, and attention to detail. She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Knowing Sophie is safe, comfortable, and loved while we're at work is invaluable. Candy is truly wonderful, and we highly recommend her services.”
About: Hello! I recently joined back on Rover. During Covid, my husband and I became parents to a little boy and it was time to take a break. Now I'm back! I work remotely and my schedule is pretty flexible during the day. I'm available for walks, check-in, and doggy daycare (in your home, sorry I don't like to stress my cat out with new animal friends). A little background: I have always grown up with medium to large dogs and have dog sat for family/friends for over 10 plus years. I have a cat named Cali (6 years old) and have had dogs and many types of fish growing up. I love all types of animals so I am happy to take care of any other family members you may have. I am very responsible and will always be punctual to any appointments, as well as be easy to contact. You can contact me by email, text, or call. I'm happy to play, walk, and care for your pets and of course, am very willing to put forth the patience and time needed to get to know your dog. I also love the outdoors, and will happily run/walk with your more energetic dogs. Thank you! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide daytime walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions while making sure your pet receives plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable while you're away. At this time, I am primarily offering dog walks and drop-in visits for all animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
About: I have been dog and house sitting for over 4 years. I love animals and will treat your dog like my own. I do have 2 dogs so I understand the importance of routine, especially while their people are away since it may be a confusing time for them. I love exercise so I’m comfortable with dogs of varying energy levels. I work full time but I am available for most mornings/evenings during the week and most weekends. Please contact me to work out specific dates/times :) When I care for dogs, I usually let them run around the house or my fenced in back yard if I’m home. I also have a designated (large) room for them to hang out in if I’m leaving the house or in case they need some quiet time.
“Shannon is very kind with humans and pets. She took care of my dog while I was away for a week. She was extremely reliable, making each visit on time. Shannon gave my dog his daily medications and treated the diarrhea my dog usually gets when I am away. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was well taken care of.”
About: I've taken care of friends and families animals for years. I also have pets of my own. I foster puppies with a local rescue, so it's safe to say I'm an animal lover. I'd love to take care of your favorite family members. My schedule is flexible and I often start work late morning and have breaks throughout my day. It's easy for me to pop in and out to provide pet care-play dates-potty breaks. I can easily spend time with your pet for a playdate- provide potty breaks and lock up when finished. Just provide any instructions around treats, feeding or crating.
“Thea is an amazing pet sitter and person! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is completely cared for and comfortable. We’ve found our sitter and won’t hesitate to use her again and again!!”
“Maria and her husband came to our meet&greet/key handover and my dogs fell in love…. Visits went v well-on time/sent pix&texts… and doggies happy and content when I came back home”
About: I love furry friends of all kinds. While I grew up with cats, I have been around dogs of all sizes my whole life and love pets of all kinds! I work a schedule different than most. Because I work nights and weekends - I have some extra time during the day for your furry friends. So while you are busy at your 9-5 you can trust that your pets are taken care of and ready for you to be home :) I am detail oriented and will worry about your pet as if they are my own. I follow directions to a T and will be sure to take good care of your fur family!
About: As a lifetime lover of all friends furry and fluffy, I’m passionate about giving cats and dogs all the joy and love they can possibly get! I have a 2 year old “free range” holland lop bunny who loves to keep me on my toes! I have many years experience with a variety of pets, particularly rabbits and dogs, and would be thrilled to be another human playing a role in helping to take care of yours! I do work full time, however I’m lucky to have a flexible schedule that allows for some daytime walks and well deserved treats for your furry loved ones! Whatever your pets’ routines—from feeding and refreshing water, to scooping litter boxes or going for walks, as well as all the playtime and cuddles in between—I am here to ensure they are well cared for and feeling the love. Your pets are your family and caring for them is just as important to me as caring for my own!
“Chris was amazing!! He took amazing care of my boys and I'm incredibly grateful to have found him, especially when I needed someone so last minute over the holidays. Left my home better than he found it every day!”
About: My name is Kayla. I have had dogs of all sizes around me my entire life. I have a graduate degree in social work from the University of Pittsburgh. I am empathetic and attentive to body language which will make me the best companion for your fur babies! I want to do this to test the waters to see if I would like my very own puppy. I would enjoy trying my hand at training puppies! I am a petite person and would do best with pets that are under 50lbs or well behaved. I work for the University of Pittsburgh doing research. I have a standard schedule 9-5 and currently work from home. In my free time I enjoy hiking, painting, reading, drinking IPAs, yoga, rock climbing, and being active. I want to put this nice weather to good use by spending time with your fur babies! I can’t wait to meet them! 🐶🐾
About: Hi! I’m Sofia, a biology student at the University of Pittsburgh and a nurse aide at Concordia, where being dependable, attentive, and responsible is part of my everyday job. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years. I regularly help family, friends, and neighbors with walking and pet care, and I’ve helped raise and train my grandma’s 60-pound dog since she was a puppy. I also walk my own energetic 70-pound dog every day, so I’m comfortable with large, active breeds. I love staying active and enjoy running, so if your dog enjoys longer walks or jogging, I’d be happy to keep them exercised. I understand that every dog has different needs and will always follow your care instructions to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Because I work as a nurse aide from 3–11 p.m., I’m available for morning and early afternoon walks and drop-in visits. I pride myself on being punctual, reliable, and treating every pet like my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your dog! I work at Concordia nursing home as a nurse aide 3-11 almost every day. I am completely free early mornings until before my work. I have a fenced in yard at my home and a one year old puppy. She is good with kids and other dogs and never aggressive.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Broughton
Markie is perfect! When a dog's human returns home and the expression is "oh, it's you" that means our beloved pup is calm, content and secure in the knowledge that everything is fine and someone will always come through the door and take care of walks, food, and lovings. For us, that has been Markie. Stella loves her and so do we!
I had Emily do a drop in with my cat for 7 days. He is usually afraid of new people and hides. Not with her. He was out and played the whole time Emily visited. He even waited at the front window for her to come. She was amazing. I received at least 5 photos a day of him, plus videos. She fed him, checked his water and cleaned him litter box for me. I really appreciate how well he was taken care of. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you for everything you did with my Binx boy!!!
Erika was kind enough to accept a drop in visit with our two pups while we were visiting PA from out of town and had a sitter cancel on us last minute! Erika even found the time to stop over for a short meet and greet prior to coming back later to feed and take care of our dogs! Erika was incredibly kind and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend her to anyone! :)
Bailey is a very responsible, pet loving sitter who really impressed me with all she had done for my cats. I have a cat with a nervous stomach, so much so that when I'm gone for a few days, he almost always gets sick... she noticed the mess and actually cleaned it up! Not many sitters will do that extra chore and I just thought that was very kind of her. She also accepted the job at the very last minute. I had booked with a different sitter a couple of weeks before my vacation and she texted me the day before i was set to leave, explaining that she had no way of getting to my house to pet sit for me. So, all in all, Bailey was there for me when I really needed her and my cats warmed up to her pretty quickly. I'm extremely happy with all that Bailey has done for me and I hope to be able to book with her again, she's great!

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 .
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 , 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 .
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.
