About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, and I truly love animals. I share a special connection with dogs — they quickly feel calm and happy around me. What sets me apart is not just the loving care I provide, but also the environment: a large, comfortable home and direct access to the forest for hikes and outdoor adventures. Your dog won’t be left alone often. Whether I’m going to the grocery store, running errands, or heading to the park, your pup comes along for the ride. They’re part of my daily life and routines, just like my own dog would be. I’m calm, caring, and fully present with the dogs I watch. From active pups to senior companions, I adapt to their needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and fully included — at home or on the go. Pet care is a big part of my daily life — and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Whether I’m at home, running errands, or going out for a hike, pets are part of my routine and come along whenever it’s safe and possible. I spend most of my time at home or in nature, which makes it easy to provide lots of attention, playtime, and companionship. My days are flexible, so I can adapt to each pet’s schedule — from regular walks and mealtimes to cozy downtime and cuddles. Taking care of pets doesn’t interrupt my routine — it is my routine. At my home, pets are treated like family. They have full access to the house, cozy places to rest, and plenty of playtime and attention throughout the day. We go on daily walks in the forest right behind the house, and if I need to go out for errands or activities, they often come with me — safely and comfortably. They’re never left alone for long, and I always prioritize their comfort and happiness. If I’m visiting pets in their home, I make sure to follow their usual routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. I take the time to connect with them, give them the care and attention they need, and make sure everything is clean and safe before I leave. Whether at my place or theirs, I always treat pets with the same love, patience, and respect as I would want for my own.
“Marilyn was terrific with our dogs, a golden and a shephard mix. They can be cautious with new people and they instantly were comfortable with her. She was easy to communicate with, responsive, and sent great updates. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we got home. Highly recommend!”
“Lara was very easy to reach and explain things as it was my first time using this app. We met first and I knew right away she had a sensitive heart for animals. She took care of my cat really well and played with her a little. She made sure the temperature of the house was ok and that she had enough water. Thanks Lara!”
About: Hi there! I have rich experience with dogs and cats, having cared for them from youth to old age. I work from home, so I’m always around, taking dogs for walks every two hours. I live in a small, safe community where off-leash walking is common and pets enjoy a fun, low-traffic environment. If you’re looking for attentive, experienced pet care, I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently working from home 8 AM to 4 PM and available all day for a dog walk or related jobs. I can also get up early if needed. I will be the one who takes care of your pets. I live in a community where off-leash walking is the norm. The area has minimal traffic, making it a safe space for dogs to roam freely without a leash. My house has plenty of space, and if your dogs don’t get along, I can easily separate them into different areas to keep everyone comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Currently with a cat and wanting a dog for years now, but waiting for the right moment. I’d love to take care of your animal, play with them and give them love. I work from home, I have my own business, I am home everyday. I can make my schedule around yours and your pet’s needs. My Saturdays are often busy, but still possible to arrange. I live in a house in the forest with a grassy backyard, garden beds and a nice short hike with a stunning view 10 minutes from the house, it’s a great walk for dogs. There are other friendly dogs in the neighborhood.
About: Je suis une personne douce, responsable et attentive aux besoins des animaux. J’ai un grand respect pour leur bien-être et je prends le temps de comprendre leur personnalité, qu’ils soient joueurs, timides ou très énergiques. Patiente et fiable, je veille à leur sécurité, à leur routine et à leur confort, tout en leur offrant mon affection et ma présence. M’occuper de chiens et de chats n’est pas seulement une tâche pour moi, c’est un engagement sincère et un plaisir quotidien Je travaille actuellement à temps partiel, ce qui me permet d’avoir une grande flexibilité dans mon horaire. Mes journées sont bien organisées et me laissent plusieurs plages libres en matinée, en fin d’après-midi et en soirée. Je suis également disponible les fins de semaine selon les besoins. Cette stabilité me permet d’offrir une présence attentive et régulière aux chiens et aux chats dont je m’occupe, que ce soit pour des promenades, des visites à domicile ou des gardes plus longues. J’ai un grand jardin et une maison avec deux étage et un sous-sol. Cependant je donne priorité à garder les animaux dans leur environnement et ainsi interagir avec eux en sécurité.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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 .

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
