“I’m so happy to have found Tina! We were at the start of a 10 day vacation when we realized our original dog sitter wasn’t working out so we scrambled to find a replacement. Tina was immediately responsive and was totally unphased by the situation- one dog recovering from TPLO surgery who had many special requirements and medications, and one slightly crazy dog who jumps and barks a lot. Communication was great and we could tell she truly cared about our dogs. When our flight home was canceled, she was able to care for them two additional days. She also offered to water our plants, got our mail, etc- super helpful and thoughtful!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 20+ years and have always treated them as part of the family. In addition to being a lifelong dog owner, I have over 10 years of experience providing dog sitting and overnight care for friends, family, and other pet owners. What sets me apart is the personal, family-focused care I provide. When your dog stays with us, they’re not just being watched—they’re welcomed into our home and treated like one of our own. Our family includes two kids who absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, which is why I prioritize keeping you updated with pictures and videos so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re with us. 🐾❤️ I’m home all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays so I am able to keep your pets routine those days! During the week, I will be at work if your pet is okay at home alone for 8 hours. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, comfort level, feeding schedule, and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent. I’m attentive to their behavior and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and downtime. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That’s why I communicate openly with pet parents and provide regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Our home is a family environment with two kids who love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. We welcome each dog into our home and treat them like one of our own. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve spent 7 years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, and I love keeping pets active, happy, and entertained. Friends and neighbors trust me for walks, feeding, and playtime, and I’m great with both energetic pups and laid‑back seniors. I bring tons of enthusiasm, patience, and attention to detail to every pet I care for, making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited for their time with me. I currently run a pet transportation business that allows me to be flexible with my time. Because my work already revolves around animals, it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m often on the road early in the day, and when I’m not transporting pets, I’m fully available for walks, drop‑ins, and boarding. My schedule stays open and adaptable, so I can give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and consistency throughout the week. I take pride in caring for pets right in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest. During walks and check‑ins, I follow your pet’s routine closely and keep a sharp eye on their behavior, surroundings, and safety. For house sitting, I maintain a calm, clean environment, stick to your rules, and make sure your home stays secure while you’re away. Whether it’s medication, feeding schedules, or extra playtime, I give each pet focused attention and treat your space with the same respect as my own.

“Lauren was a fantastic sitter who gave us great updates on our furbaby while we were out of town along with sweet photos letting us know he was in good hands. We have an older cat who requires quite a bit of social time during his visits and Lauren was always willing to give him the attention he demands. Highly recommend!”

About: I have two cats and a small dog at home that I bathe, walk, clean up after and cuddle! I currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding kennel. I am passionate about pet care and comfortability and I am committed to brightening your favorite family member's day! No matter the breed, size, age or temperament, every pet deserves the best care. I am currently working part-time and attending classes on Tuesday and Thursday, but I am available for nighttime check ins on those days. I am very patient and understanding, so please just communicate anything you need and I will work with you! I am currently staying in a dorm and am unfortunately unable to board pets. I am able to provide your pet with any kind of care in-home that you need, whether that is administering medicine, puppy care, training practice, basic necessities and, of course, play time! I am also available for house cleaning and general chores as requested.

About: Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my priority. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I know every dog and cat has their own personality and routine, and I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pet happiest and most comfortable. I worked as a veterinary assistant for around two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve also pet sat for family and friends over the years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. My veterinary experience gave me the skills to care for animals safely while being attentive to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. I’m currently a graduate student at UNC and would love to spend some of my time outside of school caring for your pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to give your pet the same love and attention I would want for my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I’m looking to provide pet care around my school schedule, primarily weekends/long weekends. My schedule can vary throughout the week, but I’m happy to coordinate with you to find times that work for both of us! I will care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or other needs. With my previous experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and will always prioritize their safety and well-being.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always had a strong love for them. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. As a community college student, I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home with my dog. I’m used to taking care of him throughout the day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I care for dogs by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and follow their normal routine as closely as possible.

About: Hi, I’m Sierra. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾 I’m based in Chapel Hill and provide services throughout the Triangle. I currently work with University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My schedule is very flexible and often remote, which allows me to spend extended time in your home for house sitting or provide multiple drop-in visits each day, whatever best fits your pet’s needs. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds and truly love animals. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and those with special needs. I began volunteering at animal shelters in my early teens and continued pet sitting for neighbors throughout high school and college. Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals—cats and dogs, along with hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and even goats—so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Currently, I share my home with three cats: my 16-year-old Maine Coon mix, Leo, and two rescue girls, Indigo and Periwinkle. While I don’t have a dog of my own yet, my family has four, and I plan to adopt one in the future. I’m experienced with administering medications (including insulin), as well as providing baths, light grooming, enrichment, and dog park visits. I’m also happy to help with household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. My goal is to care for your pets just as you would. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and any special needs so I can provide consistent, loving, and attentive care. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your furry family members! 🐶🐱💛 My current role allows me to be able to work remotely so my routine can be very flexible depending on your preferences and pet needs! I’d care for your pets in your home as I’d care for my own pets at home, with all the snuggles, treats and playtime they need!

About: Animals have always been my best friends, and I’d love to meet your furry family! I’ve cared for dogs, cats, ferrets, and birds, including senior pets and a sweet tripod kitty. I have experience training my own puppies, so I’m happy to gently reinforce your training routines while you’re away. I’m also exceptionally skilled at helping anxious pets feel safe and calm with patient, loving attention. Your pets will be treated like family in my care! I have part-time work with a very flexible schedule, and pet care is one of my top priorities. I’m happy to offer weekend, overnight, and holiday care, and my flexibility also allows me to accommodate last-minute bookings. I take this work seriously and love building trusting relationships with the pets and people I support. The sooner you secure your booking, the more peace of mind you’ll have knowing your pets are in reliable, loving hands. I live alone on my family’s property, which provides a peaceful and safe environment. It's perfect for giving your pet their own little vacation while you’re away. Whether your pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I happily respect and maintain their routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. Communication is important to me, and I stay in touch with regular updates so you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, reliable hands.

About: I have had a passion for caring for animals since I was very young. My family has had three dogs, and I helped raise and train each of them. Also, my childhood dog lived to be 14 years old and helped to take care of her as she got older. No matter what kind of pet, I love getting to know the personality of each animal and to see how they are. I am currently working as a preschool teacher with a flexible evening schedule. I am off on Fridays and have lots of free time on the weekends. I love to spend time outdoors, which would work perfect to take some walks with your sweet dogs! I would love to learn about your schedule and how to best take care of your pets! Whether it is taking walks, following a schedule, or specific feeding schedules, I am passionate at creating a space where both you and your pet feel comfortable.

Uli was great! She took the time to get to know our two cats and won them both over - even our grumpier senior cat. She took great care of them while we were out of town - going so far as to mash up our senior’s special meals and tracking his box habits (he has urinary issues) to playing with our high-energy kitten during each visit. Highly recommend contacting Uli if you need a kind, caring, and compassionate sitter. This was our first time hiring a sitter and we will definitely be contacting Uli for any future trips!

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.
