“I could not have wished for a better person to take care of my Sasha . AJ was punctual and consistent . He gave me the blow by blow details of each visit with my girl . I was out of the country and knowing AJ was taking care of Sasha gave me piece of mind . Sasha loved him from their first visit ! I won’t hesitate to take another trip thanks to AJ. He is stuck with us lol”
“Jasmine was AMAZING!!! She took wonderful care of our sweet baby while we were out of town! Loved getting the updates and pictures from each visit! Highly recommend and would definitely use her again!”

“Camron took awesome care of my boys while I was away. Shows up on time and showers them w love. Gave a thorough update so I could enjoy my evening out without worry. I would definitely use her again.”
“During our initial meet and great I could tell that Pam loves cats. My cat, who usually runs from everyone she doesn't know, loved Pam as well. This made me feel completely comfortable leaving my cat in Pam's care. Receiving pictures everyday really helped put me at ease as well. I would highly recommend Pam and will definitely be reaching out to her next time I need a cat sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here.

“Patrick is a wonderful person sitter! From first communication, he was prompt in his response(s) and attentive to our family’s pet’s individual needs. He recommended a meet and greet to make future visits comfortable for our pets - and us! He sent detailed visit cards and photos for every visit, and it was clear that our German Shepherds were well-cared for in our absence. We highly recommend Patrick as an experienced, caring pet sitter!”
“Great experience with Emma ! She was on time, reliable, and took great care of our two dogs and cat. She was even able to get our usually anxious dog comfortable enough to go outside, which meant a lot to us. Thank you”

“Ava is an absolute gem! She handled both of my dogs with so much patience and love, including my hyper dog who can be a handful. She matched her energy while still keeping things calm and safe for my other dog too. Ava communicated very easily throughout the time she cared for my dogs and followed every single care instruction I left to the letter. It's clear she genuinely cares about the pet and their safety. My dogs responded well to her and I'm looking forward to booking her again. Five stars all the way. Book her, you won't regret it!"”

About: I've had at least one dog at all times since I was born, and a cat for most of that, adding up to seven dogs and two cats. I also have taken care of neighbors' cats, dogs, birds, etc. My schedule is completely open at the moment, I'm available whenever you need my services. Morning, night, dog walking, cat sitting, whatever is needed. I can't have pets at my home, but I have a very open schedule in terms of coming to your home and doing whatever is needed for your pets.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. Many people I know, don’t fail to notice how caring, gentle, and playful I am with not only pets but with everyone else as-well. I have experienced dogs who are old, anxious, energetic, weak, shy, lovey, and everything in between. Since I was two, I would take care of my childhood dog as if he were my own baby. I’m currently attending college classes and as of right now have extra time to make money and try new things! I am available everyday except Tuesdays or Thursdays! I live in a gated apartment, that has a walking trail within. There is lots of greenery and sometimes other dogs around. I also live 8 minutes away from a dog park where I spend lots of my time walking or running. As far as being in your home, I will abide by the rules and follow what I am being told, in terms for what is best for the dog and everyone else. I will also make the experience fun and your pet will be in great hands.
About: I have taken care and owned both cats and dogs my entire life. I understand the difference in dietary needs, feeding schedules and love. Not all animals are one size fits all. Some are nervous, some are energetic, some are lazy, they all deserve love and safety while their parents are gone. I work from home so I am available to be home 24/7. I do not often go anywhere so I am always available to be home. I have a dog park in walking distance and lots of dog toys here in my home. I spend all my time with animals and make safety the upmost importance in my home. I understand mistakes happen and that animals do not do things on purpose, love is my first language for dogs.
About: Hello, my name is Ashley. I work full-time in healthcare and am seeking a supplemental income. Walking dogs and drop ins sound like a nice gig considering I am a lover of all animals. I am kind of new to this. I have once before boarded a dog a few years ago. Everything went well and my dog sure did enjoy having a friend. My dog means the world 🌎 to me and I am the type of person to treat yours just as I do my own. I understand having someone else care for your loved one can be not the easiest. I would like to be the person that makes you feel comfortable, carefree and secure as I would want the same myself. 🤎 I work Monday through Friday day shift. I would be able to provide services until 8pm during the week days in addition to any time Saturday and Sunday until 8pm. I have been around/had dogs since I was a child. Ive always treated my dogs like a part of the family. I love all animals. ❣️
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carrollwood
Thank you for taking such great care of my cats and home. We really appreciate it and your rover card and photos are such a welcome and rejoiced treat for us while we are on vacation, it brings us such comfort knowing you are watching them. Thank you for going out of your way to get crickets for my leopard gecko and all the slow blinking and photos of our shy girl Poe. Grey and the kittens and Poe in her own way all love you!
Morgan was amazing and I already plan on booking her again! She did hourly check-ins on my cat while I was traveling, and my cat is somewhat of a sassy girl, and takes a while to warm up to people. Seeing their relationship progress through the photos was so cute, and after a couple days she was snuggling Morgan and in her lap - which does NOT happen easily! I came back to a kitty who I knew was well taken care of, and my place was in perfect condition, with a nice note from Morgan. 100% recommend her!
Anessa is by far the most amazing sitter I’ve ever had. My cat Nunu warmed up to Anessa instantly by her calm demeanor. Anessa was incredibly patient and respectful of his boundaries. Instead of forcing interaction, she simply stood still and let him come to her on his own terms.She took such great care of him, followed all of my instructions carefully, made sure he was fed, and spent time playing with him. I also really appreciated all of the pictures and updates she sent throughout the visits. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. You can truly tell that Anessa understands animals and genuinely cares about them. She went above and beyond to make sure my shy little guy felt safe and loved. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive pet sitter!
Trish does a fantastic job walking the dogs. The dogs LOVE her and I am sure they look forward to seeing her. She’s reliable and is a great communicator. This is our third time using her while we were away for an extended period (this time 5 weeks). We know our girls are in good hands with Trish.
Alyssa is great. My pets take to her very well. She really engages and interacts with my fur babies and ensures she’s mindful to accommodate any requested needs for either of my cats. She’s punctual reliable and communicates well. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with her!

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
