“Excellent pet care!!!!!!! Aubrey was a blessing. It was our first time away from two of our cats. We weren't certain how they would respond, especiallyPercy who has attachment issues to his "dad" and whines when he leaves the house. They were happy and well cared for by Aubrey. A relief for both us and our fur family. I highly recommend Aubrey to care for your furry friends!”
“We've used Jack many times now, and he always has done a great job. He has been very good at checking in on our Bengal, and engaging with and playing with him. We're very happy to have Jack taking care of our kitty when we are away.”
“Alyssa is incredible. Our blind dog is fearful of new people. She sat on our floor and hand fed her to gain her trust. I am completely blown away by her compassion and dedication. I will absolutely be a repeat client :) thank you Alyssa!”
“Very short notice, Elizabeth was able to come to my aid with my 2 dogs. She did everything exactly as she promised, and then some. My one dog was too afraid of her, which is not Elizabeth's fault, it was my woosie dog. She was great and I appreciate what she did for me.”
“We booked Abby last minute to check on our two dogs and she was absolutely wonderful! She was quick to respond, very professional, and made us feel completely at ease. We really appreciated her reliability and the updates she provided. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again!”
“This was our first time using Ryan and she did everything we asked. Plus, we have three cats, all with medical needs and medication regimes, which she also handled while we were away (for four days). We’re relieved to have someone we can trust with our cats and our home. Thanks Ryan for the help!”
“Korine was BEYOND amazing with my elderly and sick dog. I wish I could give her a million stars. She gave her all of her many daily medicines and walked her at her own (very slow lol) pace. I felt horrible leaving my girl but Korine kept me very comforted with constant check-in messages, pictures, and videos- it was almost as if I was still at home myself. My dog made a great friend in Korine and loved her company very much. 🥰 I could tell she was extremely and genuinely loved and cared for which put my mind and heart at ease being away from her. Thank you!!!”
“Carrie was the absolute best choice when it came to finding someone to take care of my (not so sweet) kitty. The updates provided were hilarious, and I could tell that Carrie really put in the time to try and let Kitty warm up to her. BONUS POINTS: While I was away, we were hit with terrible storms. Carrie not only found a way to get to Kitty, but she also took it upon herself to clean up the water that came into my living room so there wasn’t damage to my hardwood floors. She moved out my furniture, found towels to dry up the water, and kept me informed. That is above and beyond, I am so grateful! I would highly recommend Carrie to anyone and will absolutely use her again in the future. Thank you Carrie!”
“Amy was wonderful with my dog! We hired her to drop in and also to take our dog for a short walk and she was great. She arrived on time and was very loving to our old dog. She also snuggled him on the couch, played with him outside and left us a message on how he did. It was great to have someone that would show him all the love when we could not be there.”
About: I've had cats as well as more exotic animals as pets. I recently moved to an apartment with a no pet lease, and I really miss the interaction with animals. I thought that providing pet care for others would be enjoyable, but also help other people. In addition to caring for cats and dogs, I have experience with small mammals like chinchillas, reptiles such as snakes, turtles, and lizards as well as amphibians and birds. I typically schedule pet visits in the morning and evening, allowing for playtime, feeding, waste maintenance, and medication administration if needed. I also offer overnight stays and daily check-ins for extended absences. I aim to provide reliable and kind care, ensuring your pet is safe and loved while you're away. I believe that caring for your pet in their home provides the least amount of anxiety for them. I follow all instructions carefully and ensure your pet's routine stays consistent. I provide companionship, feeding, exercise/play, and medication. Regular updates and photos are provided for your peace of mind.
“Samantha genuinely loves animals and it shows, she uses the ‘dog mom voice’, she gets down at my dog’s level to play, and is so careful about health quirks. I would recommend her to anyone with a pet looking for a sitter!”
About: I've always been an animal lover my entire life. I have 2 energetic huskies that require walks and I would love to exercise your fur baby. Specialty: administering medication for my one husky. Currently I have a full-time job M-F, from 8am to 5pm. My responses to your requests will be handled with care after work. Thank you. Safety and Trust is my ultimate commitment. For dog sitting, please share your requirements for snacks, administering medication and placing in a crate if needed.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! 🐶 I have a dog of my own who can be nervous around people and bark, so I’m experienced with staying calm, keeping control, and making walks safe and enjoyable. I’ve walked both big and little dogs since I was young and absolutely love spending time with them. Dogs bring me so much happiness, and I would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends whenever I can! I’m currently in college at Dickinson. I’m free any weekend. Monday, Tues and Friday from 5-9. Wednesday from 1:30 to 4:15. Lastly, Friday 7am to 4:15 pm. I will do whatever you would like me to do with your dog to make sure you feel your pets are safe! I can put them in a crate, leash them, take them in a yard, etc…

Mallory is the best! She takes care of our cats when we are away. We always have peace of mind knowing that they’re getting attention and love when we can’t be there, and we always appreciate the photos and updates on how they’re doing. Highly recommend using Mallory to watch your pets!
Mae did an amazing job stopping by to watch our dog Theo! She was reliable, caring, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated and made sure Theo got plenty of attention and care during her visit. We’d definitely have Mae watch Theo again and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Aubrey took excellent care of our 3 cats! She is reliable, responsible, and interacted with the cats during some play time while she was here. Her communication with us was excellent, sending updates and pictures. When we arrived home our cats seemed relaxed and happy. We highly recommend Aubrey to tend to the needs of your pets!
Will was great with our dog! She was a recent rescue and very suspicious of new people. Will gave her some space, was patient and kind and they soon became best buds! We were gone for 10 days and he sent pictures every day - which gave us peace of mind that she was thriving and happy while we were gone. Will is also very dependable and came 2X every day to give her a break and to exercise her (while our dog sitter was at work). I would certainly recommend him and will definitely be calling on him again.

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.

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.
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.
