“We weren’t sure what to expect since Anikka is newer on Rober but she was a great sitter for our fur babies! We appreciated the easy communication and the photo updates, they had a wonderful time with her. We have one dog who is senior and needs a little extra love and she took great care of him. She took our other dog to the park near our house which she loves. Would definitely use her again!”
“Elise was very thorough in making sure our cat’s needs were met. She was very flexible with adding an additional day at the last minute. She went over and above to find our cat's hiding spots and take photos so that we knew our cats were being cared for. Jupiter loved the pets and playing fetch for treats! Thank you again for taking good care of our babies!”
“Brandi was awesome. Booked her last minute. And she came for a meet and greet that evening. Followed all the care instructions I asked. Very happy with her visit-follow up-and photos. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“It was so good to have Dawnn care for our Gizmo. He was more responsive to her than most others that come into out home. He accepted treats from her and ate from her hand and that is saying something for our immensely afraid cat! She also watered the plants for us. Thanks, Dawnn!!”
“Cassie was wonderful to communicate with and was always on time! She made me feel very comfortable about leaving our pup for 5 days while we were on vacation. Would highly recommended!”
“Aracely is the ultimate cat whisperer! This was our third time having her look after our home, and even for just a short visit, she continues to impress. Leaving a big pet family behind can be stressful, but knowing our six cats are in such great hands gives us total peace of mind. Aracely handles everyone’s individual quirks and needs like an absolute pro, ensuring they are not only well-fed but genuinely comfortable and content for the rest of the day. Every time we get back, everything is perfect and it’s clear our crew is happy and at ease. Huge shoutout to Aracely for taking such amazing care of them—we’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Anne helped us out with a very last minute request and did a great job of caring for both our pups. Everything was completed as requested. Great communication. Highly recommend.”
About: I'm not real sure what sets me apart from other sitters, I just know I've loved animals my whole life. I've owned a few dogs and a couple cats over the years. I have a full-time job in retail, so my schedule is a little odd, but I have every Friday off, and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evening. If you need a sitter at your house, or just need someone to drop in and check on your fur babies. I'm available and reliable! I have a full time job in retail, but on my days off or my evenings off I'd like a little fur company. I'm looking for a permanent doggie day on Fridays. My senior cat passed away back in March 😢. I'll be kind and gentle with your pet/family member. ❤️ I was a boarder a few summers ago, but I'm just looking to help sometime out a little.
“Grace did a great job while we were out of town. She took care of our cat while we were gone for two weeks in our home. We got pictures while we were gone every time she visited. I could tell our cat was a little apprehensive at first but towards the end of our trip, our cat warmed up. I will definitely be using her again when we travel.”
“We are very pleased with the prompt and kind service Maelee provided, it really was great to be able to enjoy our trip without worry. Thank you!”
About: Experience in caring for cats and dogs of all ages as well as special needs and administering medication. Have worked in a dog kennel with up to 15 dogs. Can stay in your home weekends and so week nights depending on proximity to my home. Dogs will be let out minimum 4 times a day I will always ensure your pet is safe and within viewing even if they are property trained as accidents can happen within seconds with animals.
About: I used to operate a rescue and shelter outside of Atlanta. I have experience with all types of animals in all types of conditions. Familiar with special needs, dietary restrictions, after surgery care, blind animals and more. I have always been an animal lover and I currently have 3 dogs I would like to make pet care my full time job. I currently do some side work in the construction field but would really enjoy spending all my time with the pets if possible I have a fenced in yard and two fully separated areas of the house and garage that open into the yard that can accommodate any animals who aren’t comfortable around other pets. I let my dogs on the couches and beds and they have free reign of the house
“Annette was great! She watched May for three weeks while I was on a business trip. She was very responsive and always sent lots of update photos. I highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Corinna took excellent care of our cat while we were on vacation. She followed all our instructions and made sure to spend quality time with Pearl during each visit. We really appreciated her attention and dedication. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I've been a part of a foster family for dogs of all ages since 2010 and will continue to do so even longer. The puppy litters I watched over the years have consisted of 4 puppies or less. The oldest "puppies" I've fostered were just about 6 months old but they are usually around 4 to 8 weeks. The oldest dogs I've watched were two small dogs: one was 16 years old and the other was 14 years old. Even before fostering, I watched and walked my neighbor's two dogs during all seasons. If she had not moved away, I would still be walking and caring for them now. I've always had a passion for dogs and my current dog, Ruby, is my second .

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 .
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.

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.
