“Andie was so patient and caring with Sadie. Great job and we will have you come again. Sadie was very well cared for and really appreciated the pics and updates after each visit. Highly recommend Andie!!!!!”
“Erin was very nice! You can tell she loves pets. She took very good care of my 2 dogs and I appreciate she was able to do it last minute! Very recommended! I would definitely work with her again!”
About: I have 4 pets myself and love to care for them. I would love to be able to help out someone else’s house hold as well and give our pets the enrichment and love that they need and deserve! I have a very high energy dog so would be able to socialize and walk your dog with a friend if you wanted, or I could always leave her at home and devote my time to your pet alone, your preference as always. Hiking and longer walks are always welcome! I am an online student, so I have a completely open availability, as well as a partner at home to care for my own pets while I am away. I can devote as much time as you would like to caring and lock on your pet! I would keep a close eye on the pet to make sure they are not getting into anything or showing any signs of distress. My favorite activity is cuddling with the pets, but I also love playtime, walks, and just being near the little ones in general!
“Elizabeth did an excellent job looking over our cats! She took good care of the litter boxes and played with the cats. I would rebook with her for our next vacation”
About: Animal lover and experienced dog owner with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I care for every pet as if they were my own and provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. Happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. 😊 I work from home, so I’m around most of the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I already plan my day around my own dog. Your pet would get lots of attention, care, and a consistent routine while they’re with me. At my home, pets have a calm, safe space with a fenced yard for play and plenty of room inside, including extra space if they need a quiet area. I’m home most of the day, so they get lots of attention and care.I also have a friendly dog, and I always make sure introductions are done slowly and comfortably. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible.
“Morgan was wonderful! We have 4 cats and she is the first person I have ever hired to take care of them. She was prompt and did everything I asked. I received detailed updates and pictures after every visit. She obviously loves animals and took care of them just like they were her own. Apparently, my cats did not even miss us while we were away because we were not greeted upon our return. We will be using her again and again. Thanks Morgan!”
About: I love dogs and cats too, I got into dog - sitting when I first moved to Georgia and my neighbor went out of town I watched her dog while she was gone and have been dog sitting ever since. I love going out and walking dogs and playing with dogs. I make sure they feel like they are loved and with their owners when I watch animals I love making them even little treats and dinners. Also if you have specific thing your animal eats then you can count on me to make sure they have a good healthy meal, I also am good about giving them their medication. I understand how people love for their animals as if they were their children and I totally get it. You worry about them and want to make sure they are taken care of well. I myself even hate the thought of my animal being alone for over a long period of time because of work or school.
“Iyah was very caring for my cats while I was away on a work trip! She went above and beyond to make sure I was updated every evening, and Mort and Maeve loved her! Will definitely book again.”
About: Me and my fiance love animals and have 5 dogs and 1 cat of our own. We have 20 years of experience caring for all types of dogs from small to large and many different breeds as well as cats. We both have experience administering medicine and allergy shots if needed. We also have experience with dogs not potty trained. References can be provided upon request. I work full time but am blessed to have a flexible schedule and my fiance Bryan is home full time so we are able to accommodate many schedules including same day services. We have a fenced in backyard as well as a room that is dedicated to overnight guests so they have their own safe space to decompress. Our yard is mowed and kept clean of debris.
“Lourdes was AMAZING! I am so happy to have found her on Rover. I needed a last minute sitter to help with drop on visits and she was able to do a quick, same day meet and greet and start helping out the next day. I came home to the happiest pup ever. My dog absolutely loved her! Lourdes sent plenty of photos and videos which was great. It is so apparent that she loves animals and knows how to care for them. Highly recommend and looking forward to booking again!”
“Holli took amazing care of our three dogs and three cats. She even dealt with a messy issue with one of the dogs with no complaints!! We will definitely call upon her again!!”
“We had a great experience with Jennifer! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she arrived exactly when scheduled for both drop-in visits. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable when we returned. We really appreciated the updates and peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Sahara was literally an angel who stepped in when a previously hired sitter no showed after I had already left town. She has been patient with my very shy and skittish senior cat who is now enjoying being petted by Sahara. I highly recommend her.”
“Kaitlyn was patient with our skiddish rescue and won her over. Pictures and updates sent from each visit. We knew our baby girl was well cared for and we have booked another session with Kaitlyn!!”
“Great experience! Our dog was well taken care of during the drop-in visit. The sitter was reliable, caring, and attentive, and kept us updated throughout the visit. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. We would definitely book again and highly recommend!”
About: In addition to owning dogs and cats myself over the years, I am a veterinarian. I worked in small animal practice before joining the Army Veterinary Corps, from which I retired in 2021. In addition to standard care, I can also administer medications and treatments prescribed by your pet’s veterinarian. I am retired with a very flexible schedule. I would be able do take the time needed to ensure your pet gets the attention and care they need. Regardless of the type of care requested, you provide the instructions for how you want your pet cared for and I will follow them. If for some reason I cannot accommodate a specific request, I will work with you to find a satisfactory solution.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
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.
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.
