“Ladonna was amazing. Even my grumpy old pup took to her and her husband. They sent regular pictures and report cards of how they were doing. They went above and beyond all I asked. Thank you for your kindness and love for my fur babies 🐾❤️🐾”
“We are so thankful to have been able to book Kaila for Drop In visits to check in on our dog daily during the work week. She does a wonderful job with our dog and also provides us with peace of mind during the long work days!”
“Cathrine was awesome! She was available with very short-notice. She spent lots of time loving on our baby while we were away for a late-night concert. She sent us lots of pictures during each visit and was great with communication from start to finish. We look forward to using her again in the future!”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog Nova. She came everyday fed her, played with her and my cat although she didn't have to. She was very attentive and gentle with my pets. I had no issues with her coming to my home while I was away and she was sure to lock up and leave the key somewhere I can easily find it on her last day. I appreciate Jennifer greatly and will be using her services again!”
About: I've worked in animal care for several years, starting at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I spent six years. I began as a kennel technician and worked my way up to general manager, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviors, and medical needs. I'm currently pursuing a long-term goal of becoming a veterinary technician. In my free time, I foster animals for a local rescue that I'm passionate about. I take pride in using fear-free handling techniques, understanding animal body language, working through behavioral challenges, and providing compassionate care for medically compromised pets. While I'm relatively new to Rover, I've been caring for pets in my home for years. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time as a veterinary assistant at a local animal hospital. I have at least two days off each week and work a half day on Wednesdays. While I am away during part of the day, I come home every day during my hour lunch break to let your baby out for a potty break, playtime, and some extra love and attention. In the evenings, I enjoy taking dogs for walks (weather permitting) and spending quality time with them. When I have pets in my care, I plan my schedule around their needs. I avoid making additional plans so I can provide plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, cuddles, and consistency with their normal routine. I do provide care in your home, with the same schedule/availability. Such as; going to your home on my break to care for the pet(s), only sitting for one family at a time, walks, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable, loved, and at home as possible while you're away. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a pool that is currently being fenced for added safety. My philosophy is simple: pets are never left unattended outside. If your pet is crate-trained or simply feels more comfortable in a crate, I have plenty of space to set one up for daytime or overnight use. I only care for one client's pet(s) at a time to provide the safest environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. I have a designated "dog cabinet" stocked with essentials like pill pockets, peanut butter, and ability to keep any medications your pet may need during their stay. If your pet rides in my vehicle, I use a pet seat belt to help keep them secure during travel. I ask that owners provide a properly fitted harness or collar and leash. If you're unable to do so, I have extras available (with your permission) to safely transfer your pet to and from my home and for walks. I do my best to maintain your pet's normal feeding schedule, so I appreciate detailed instructions regarding meals, treats, and any special preferences. I also always ask about food sensitivities, allergies, or other dietary needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. These apply to in your home as well.
“All I can say is WOW! Alaina was absolutely amazing from day one. I had a 10 day trip out of state and was so nervous about leaving my fur baby home alone. But having her complete my daily check in's put me at ease. I can't say enough wonderful things about how she followed my directions and cared for my baby. She's really gifted! My fur baby and I are her #1 fans! I will never book with anyone else if I need pet care! She's the best.”
About: I have taken care of my two dogs as well as worked at a boarding facility when I was in college. I have also volunteered at shelters while in college I am looking to make some extra money being around the best people (animals)! I currently have a full time job, but looking for something to fill the open parts of my schedule I will make sure I am very respectful of your space and make sure your dogs are taken care of properly! I will make sure I treat your dog/cats the way I would want mine treated which is royalty!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of them has always been second nature to me. Right now I have two dogs of my own, Ali, my Cockapoo, and Queen, my Great Pyrenees. They have completely different personalities, so I know every dog has their own routine and needs. Even though I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and I’ll care for your dog the same way I care for mine. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying with them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send plenty of updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently offer dog walking & drop-in visits. I work full-time, so I’m mostly available on weekends, some holidays, and other times depending on my schedule. I’ll always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. Once I commit, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, and love they deserve, and I’ll stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel comfortable from the start. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your pet’s routine, and pay attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing.
About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, loving animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve had dogs my entire life—they’ve never been “just pets,” but true members of the family. Creating a safe, loving, and happy environment for them brings me so much joy. I’m home during the day, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. It would truly be our pleasure to welcome your furry family member into our home and treat them like one of our own while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention, plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I enjoy a peaceful home environment, which makes it easy to provide a calm, comforting space for pets to feel safe and relaxed. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving a little extra TLC, I’m able to be fully present and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. Inside, my home is a calm and welcoming environment where animals are truly treated like part of the family. I have one large, friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pets and helps create a playful atmosphere. I provide care where your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care in a safe and cozy setting.
“I would recommend Brenda to anyone needing a pet sitter. She communicated with me daily about her check ins, and treated my pets like they were her own. Five stars all day! We love Brenda !”
About: I have had animals all of my life and love caring for and playing with them. I will always treat your animals like my own. I am a stay at home mom of three, so I have open availability. My two older kidd are gone for school during the week. So its just me and my three year old. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who like meeting new dog friends.

About: I am a very passionate pet owner. I have always been around dogs since I was about 3. I work at Petsmart in the grooming salon so I am around animals all week. I am a professional bather there so I see every type of dog there is. I am not afraid of large breeds or any breed to be exact. I own 3 beautiful babies two Shih Tzus and one American Bulldog Chow Pit mix. I enjoy being around dogs. I really enjoy taking my babies out to the dog park and letting them run and socialize until their little hearts desire. I am very caring and supportive. I have knowledge in providing these services: bathing,nails,anal glands,brush outs, teeth brushing etc. I love being outside so your pups will get plenty of sunshine. I do work a full time job Monday through Friday 730-430. So my drop in schedule is pretty limited. I will work with you and your schedule.
“Sorry Naomi, I wrote a long review when I got back, but it must not have posted. Naomi was absolutely the best!! She took excellent care of our two cats, communicated daily with text msgs and lots of pictures. She took extra special care of them and even hid treats around the house to give them some stimulation. After our relative passed we had no one to care for our cats when we took a trip. One time we used a boarding place were the cats are in a big cage, which we hated to do again.... but was going to for our recent trip but they were booked up. Never heard of Rover, but found it while searching and just loved the reviews Naomi had especially with cats. She came and visited before the trip and we talked for over an hour so I knew we found the right person. I would not hesitate to use her again!!”
“Nicole took great care of my pets while I was out of town for a weekend! I was very anxious about leaving my smaller dog, and she provided regular updates and pictures, and he showed no abnormal behaviors once I returned. I appreciated her communication and will definitely feel comfortable using her in the future and know my furbabies are in good hands!”
About: I have experience with lizards, fish, dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I have experience with dog sitting both at my place and at the owner’s I currently work part time, so I’m pretty flexible with my availability. One of my jobs is actually working from home, so I am there a lot to play and keep pets company I have a medium female terrier mix who loves people and other animals. There is a park where I take my dog regularly. I have a son who loves animals & has his own guinea pig
“Shari was amazing with my fur babies! I could tell she took her time and showed them love and attention! All the pictures she sent looks like they were happy and pleased with Mrs. Shari!”
“Deanna took the best care of our boys! She sent the cutest pics and showed them so much love. I felt confident in leaving our fur babies in such good hands. We will definitely be using her again and again to care for our babies when they can’t come with us.”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Byron stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
