About: I am a dog owner looking to spend my free time helping you take care of your loved one! I am kind, gentle, and patient. I also able to adapt to whatever your pet needs. My dog had back surgery years ago, so I have experience with using a harness to assist with walking as well. I'm available anytime during the week or on weekends! Boarding could be an option if you require it, and I would be able to stay overnight if needed. I love going for walks and playing. I live near a small, quiet dog park. I can also come play in your home if that's better, or provide your pet a person to be with if they get lonely.
“Keezieng's assistance was a lifesaver this holiday season. His politeness and kindness when meeting us and our cat Olivia was reassuring and he did a great job of updating us during his visits while we were away. We’re so grateful for the excellent care provided!”
About: Designated dog carer for family, so I figured I would expand the circle. I love going for walks and love taking a pup with me. I am working a full-time job. Mondays and Fridays, I am available from 6 am to 9:30 am. On Tuesdays through Thursdays, I am available anytime after 5:45 pm. Usually available anytime on the weekends for pet care and walking. My full-time job requires me to have respect and care for people's private information, so you can count on me to show the same respect and care for in-house sitting.
“Jackie is very accommodating, She contacted me to get instructions for entering my residence, but unfortunately I hadn't noticed. I got back to her as soon as I read the message, but she had already left. She was able to make another stop by later to care for Sparks. Her communication and care were top notch and I would recommend her as your next pet care provider.”
“I seriously couldn’t be happier with the care my cat received while I was away! Cassandra went absolutely above and beyond to make sure my cat was well taken care and loved. She was extremely professional and kept me updated every time she visited and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. My cat was so happy and content when I returned and everything was taken care of! I highly recommend Cassandra, she was so reliable and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed caring for animals. Thank you for taking such great care of my cat!!”
About: I grew up on a farm and so I handled a wide variety of animals. I’m in nursing school and want a side hustle that I will enjoy doing. I can walk dogs Monday - Friday from 5:30 on. I have my own 2 Fur babies at home. One being a 2 year old boxer and the the other being a 3 year old mix. I know a lot about animals because I grew up with them. I have worked with a vet in Wisconsin a bit too so I know how to look for signs of sickness.
“Judging from the photos it looks like you did a fantastic job and I appreciate you being so communicative. We’ll be out of town DEC 23-29, and I’d love to discuss scheduling for those dates if you’re available.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 5 years old. I grew up in the country in Texas and at one point we had around 20 cats and 9 dogs. We took care of the strays that made their way onto our property, and sometimes adopted from shelters and random people. I was taught love and compassion for animals since I was a young child. I continue to embrace the kindness I have in my heart for animals everyday. I’m usually available most of the time, as I don’t have any full time work to tend to. I also do not celebrate holidays which can benefit pet owners very much because they can count on me being available as long as I have not already booked with someone else. I would be wonderful to your pup insuring they get enough potty breaks, walks if you would like, maybe the dog park upon your approval, and even car rides if you’d like! I offer complimentary treats.. I keep some in my home. And of course I would get them approved by my client first. For cats in my clients home, I would do the same things. I would also insure the cat box is clean, and lots of play time if that’s what the kitty likes :-)
About: I have experience fostering cats and dogs of all ages the last 6 years. I have experience with special needs dogs and cats, reactive dogs, and puppy training. I work from 7:30-4 Monday-Friday I am available to stay at the house to be there in the morning for the pets. I will be there right after work. I unfortunately cannot watch pets at my place, but I can stay at your place or can just stop by to feed and let out.
About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means going for a long walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home. I’m active and love being outdoors, so I’m especially happy to take dogs on walks and give them plenty of exercise and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I’d want someone to give mine. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, and care routines, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to fit pet care into my week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention.
“Jen is a absolutely amazing. She has taken care of my puppy just like her very own. She is down to earth, personable, and goes above and beyond for my little puppy. It is so nice to know that while I am away my dog is well taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Mary did an excellent job cat sitting. My cat loves her. She was on time all the time and sent pictures and updates with every visit. She was able to work with my changing schedule and made the process a great experience. Mary is my go-to cat sitter now. Highly recommended!”
About: I’m experienced with both cats and dogs, house sitting and plant sitting if needed. I have a senior cat myself and two other younger cats but I also grew up around dogs and love to dog sit and take dogs on walks when the weather permits. My schedule is usually very flexible. I’m a full time student and I’m working part time from home in the Miami area. As long as I have a solid Wi-Fi or data connection for a hotspot I’m good to go. If there isn’t already explicit instructions my usual schedule would be to walk the dogs every 2-4 hours (puppies more than that till their potty trained) and feed the animals as instructed. Cats and dogs both need their daily playtime as well. I’m willing to spend the night if you’d prefer or just come and spend the workday with them 12+ hours a day.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Burke
Renee was wonderful with Sana! She took great care of our cat and did a great job brushing her long fur as well. Communication before the booking was smooth, and coordinating the key pickup and handoff was super easy. We felt very comfortable having Renee look after Sana!
Carley was absolutely wonderful with Loki! ❤️ She was dependable, caring, and kept me updated while I was away, giving me complete peace of mind. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and Loki was in great hands. I highly recommend Carley and will definitely use her again! 🐾
Krista took such wonderful care of our kitties while we were away for the week! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were on vacation. She was dependable, caring, and made sure they had everything they needed. We came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties, which is all we could ask for! We’re so grateful to Krista and would absolutely trust her to care for them again. Highly recommend! ❤️
Megan has been such a joy for our family! We have absolutely loved having her watch our dogs. They are obsessed with her, and she takes such great care of them. We are moving out of state and are so sad that we won’t get to work with her anymore. Thank you so much for everything, Megan!!

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.
