“Melissa was very kind and adapted quickly when my food scale unfortunately stopped working properly that weekend. She followed directions exactly and made sure kitty had everything she needed.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for pets is something I genuinely love! I’ve grown up around animals and have experience owning and caring for cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, and many other animals. I’ve also fostered pets and have hands-on farm experience, so I’m comfortable with animals of all different sizes, personalities, and needs! I absolutely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy, safe, loved, and spoiled while they’re in my care. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, get lots of cuddles, or just relax by my side, I’m happy to give them all the attention they deserve. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in loving and caring hands. I would be so excited to meet your fur babies and give them the same love and attention I give my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work from home, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and frequent face-to-face time throughout the day! I’m able to give them lots of opportunities to go outside, stretch their legs, and play, rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, medications, walks, and any other care they’re used to at home. I also love taking dogs on evening walks and giving them plenty of playtime and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible while you’re away, so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety is always my top priority! I have a fully fenced-in yard where your pet can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime, along with a quiet, safe neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. I also have a super friendly miniature poodle who loves making new friends and can keep your pet company if they enjoy having a furry friend around! Of course, I’m happy to keep pets separated if that’s what they’re most comfortable with. I also have a crate available and can crate your dog when needed or if that’s part of their normal routine at home. I’ll always follow your instructions and do whatever helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while they’re in my care!
“Priya was very attentive and sent lots of updates, photos, and videos of our pets. She sent detailed updates with every drop in. She kept an eye on our home for us too. I would highly recommend her!”

“Caitlyn saved our 4th of July trip and made sure Nova didn't feel alone while we were gone. Walks daily, always updated if she ate or went potty. It made me feel so much better for my 1st time hiring a dog sitter.”
About: Hey! My name is Emma. I've been apart of the pet care industry for 3 years.

“My Yorkie is a rescue and he has stress/anxiety and separation issues. I had him only a few months when I began having Sarilyne coming to my house while I was working. Sarilyne was able to establish trust and security to my dog immediately. She is a very sweet, kind and patient and punctual person who I trust to come into my home to care for dog.”

“Megan was amazing with our pup. We had her stop by our home a few times a day to check on our 8 week old puppy. She was attentive, caring, and went about and behind to make sure our baby was well taken care of. She fed, played with and even bathed him when he had an accident in his crate. We could not be happier with the level of care she provided to Ares. I highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you Megan!”

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cape Canaveral choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
