“Remi and Marie were amazing!! It was very clear that they really love dogs and took great care of Leo and Ellie! They were also very understanding with my requests and concerns, especially with Ellie's hip. Leo had a lot of fun playing and lounging around in the yard and came home a happy and exhausted pup! Highly recommend Remi and Marie!”
“Suzanne was incredible with my dog. She has great communication. My dog was clearly well taken care of and so happy at pick up. I would not hesitate recommending her for your pets needs! 5 stars”
“Heather was awesome. Great communication from beginning to end and King was so well taken care of. They accommodated our late return at pick up and even purchased toys to keep him busy. We will definitely reach out again when we need a sitter.”
“We boarded our shy rescue dog Russer with Kendall for two weeks, and she is the absolute best. We had sent Russer to do a trial sleepover with Kendall a couple weeks prior, which was very beneficial as it takes time for Russer to trust new people. Kendall was very patient with him and she was so proud of the progress he made each day. Kendall gave us the perfect amount of updates on Russer along with pictures/videos, and made sure to always follow our care instructions. It was easy to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Russer was in good hands. Kendall’s love and passion for animals is clear in the care she provides. I highly recommend Kendall, and our future vacations will be planned around her availability.”
“Great experience! They took wonderful care of my dog over 5 days, keeping me updated and making sure everything went smoothly. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Molly had a fantastic stay with Jane! Jane was a life saver for us when another staycation for Molly fell through. We will definitely check with Jane again the next time we need a place for Molly.”
“Sarah and her family were so great with Molly. We could see from the pictures and when we picked her up she was well-cared for and loved. Made going away so much easier. Sarah sent us pictures during the stay and provided updates so we were not worried. Thank you Sarah and family! Can’t wait to see you again.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my dog, Olive! Her two dogs were so well-behaved and got along great with Olive. She kept me updated throughout the stay, sent me adorable pictures, and made me feel completely at ease. I could tell Olive was happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Stephanie again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Criofan is absolutely amazing with dogs! It’s so clear how much she truly loves and cares for animals. She was incredibly dedicated to our dogs’ well-being, safety, and happiness the entire time. Her dog Albert was the perfect companion and brought so much joy, exercise, and positive energy to our dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“My dog has been left with strangers during day and friends at night and seems to do fine. But strangers overnight was rough for him and gave him a nervous stomach. Marlisa was very gracious and helped him feel more settled. She also paid careful attention to his medical notes. Would highly recommend as someone that will care well for your pet.”
“Stacy took great care of Zaza while we were away. She sent at least one photo every day and let me know how my old girl was doing. Highly recommend and will try to have Stacy and her family fitbabysit again!”
“Holly is a very attentive and caring person and took excellent care of my dog this week, providing regular updates and photos. I highly recommend Holly for anyone looking for food dog care.”
“I needed a boarder last minute for a trip and I’m so happy Daisy took Mijo in, he had an awesome time! He went for walks and played his heart out. I can tell mijo was lovingly cared for while I was away and I would definitely board mijo again with Daisy. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Alisa did me a huge favour by watching my dog, Mylo overnight so that my partner and I could attend our friend’s going away party. She provided excellent care for my dog, took him on nice walks, and sent very cute photos and text updates so I knew my pet was in good hands. I highly recommend Alisa to care for your dog if you are in search of pet care now or in the future.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I'm so thankful for this service. Sandeep is so lovely and accommodating. It is obvious he loves dogs. I left my dog Harlow with him for an overnight stay. My travel plans caused me to be late picking her up and Sandeep made it work. He sent me several updates and photos. I had no stress and knew my little buddy was in caring hands. When I picked her up, she wanted to be held by Sandeep until we left. I highly recommend Sandeep, but most importantly, so does Harlow.”
“Christina was amazing! Super responsive and flexible during the booking process. Christina took such good care of our Chappie and sent lots of videos and pictures of him having a great time. Would highly recommend using Christina!”
“Kelsey was a wonderful host to our little Brodie! You could tell it was a vacation for him too and that he was a content pooch in her care. She was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos while we were gone. Super grateful for her care and will absolutely use her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Bill and Gerie are total gems. Our Toby had the best time at their place. They sent us many photos during his 3 week stay showing a very happy dog enjoying the adventures out with Bill. Their home and property offer a perfect situation for dogs and they obviously adore doing this work. Bill very kindly delivered our dog back to our house, a service above and beyond. Toby can’t wait to go back!”

Suzanne took such wonderful care of our dog, Morphy, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She is incredibly kind, responsible, and clearly loves animals. From the moment we met her, we felt comfortable and confident leaving Morphy in her care. Morphy was happy, relaxed, and very well cared for during his stay. Suzanne kept us updated and made sure he received lots of attention, care, and affection.

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.
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 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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
