“Baby Cakes typically doesn't like other people, but she seems to love Kate! I appreciate her and her good soul. Baby Cakes seems to be happy and even happier to see her every time.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for 10+ years, from cats to giant dogs. I have two dogs of my own, and have had cats in the past, so I understand the individual needs of each animal. Senior dogs have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working part time, 3 days a week! My schedule changes week to week, but I am open and flexible to changing my schedule! I can easily crate or move your dogs if I need to! I am eager to earn their trust and am willing to bribe them with treats. I understand each pet has different needs and I am adaptable to them!
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of all kinds of animals and pets! I’m currently in school for Veterinary Nursing, and I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to care for your pet! I understand the worry and anxiety that can come with leaving the care of your pet to a stranger and would make sure you’re always updated as fits your needs. I work part time currently while in school, and I actually am working towards making my clients here on Rover my full time job while in school! Currently, I will not be able to house any pets yet as I live in an apartment complex. I will be able to do walks and daily drop ins and hopefully expand to a house where dogs can stay and play! I do have the ability to do dog washes as well.
“Kassi was a life saver when we had to leave town last minute for an emergency. We also didn’t know how long we would be and she was able to step up and help for additional visits. We really appreciate her flexibility and reliability. Thanks Kassi!”
“Laura was so good with my kitties. She sent pictures and they loved her, which is a feat because one is extremely shy. The fact that Laura could get a picture of Edith says it all. I highly recommend Laura.”
“Candy took great care of our two elderly pups while we were on vacation. She was reliable, on time, gave updates regularly, and had great communication. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pups. My pups need some extra care in their senior years and Candy handled everything from medication to doggy diapers. I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I've taken care of pets for over a decade in a professional and personal setting. If your pet has any special needs don't hesitate to let me know so I can provide proper medications or extra care when they need it! I currently work full time in an office setting. My schedule is the same Monday - Friday. However, I get plenty of breaks and a lunch so I can check on your babies and mine frequently throughout the day. Although crating is a beautiful practice to keep pets safe when not home, I love to allow the pets freedom to roam while I am there to monitor, with plenty of toys or puzzles! Enrichment is a great way to keep your dogs from being bored/anxious and destroying items you'd like to keep off limits.
About: I've had the most honorable pleasure of being part of my own late fur babies (dogs) lives for 17 and 14 years. As well as my first ever cat, Catwoman (sorry girl, for the typical young child name). Then a few others as life went on, Anastasia, Callie, and Izzy (Isabella). Caring for and loving them was my pleasure and took me on many lifelong learning adventures. In order to make a difference for the loves of my lives I have decided to offer my heart to pet care. If given the chance, I can only hope to show your pets love like their own, trust, snuggles, fun, and more...everything they've ever dreamed of. Thank you for entrusting your very special babies to me. I look forward to meeting any and all of them. Due to being a stay at home homemaker it seems I have plenty of time to devote to loving and caring for your loves as if they were my own. I'm available and open to accommodate many different schedules. As of now I am available to care for your loved ones in their own setting where they're most comfortable. Your home is where I'm able to love and care for your furbabies. There are also many possibilities for walking, and I also offer vet visit care. That's as in being your pets' veterinary appointment partner.
“Meagan was a great sitter with our two pups. She connected with them immediately and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Meagan also maintained good communication with us whole she was pet sitting. We would definitely recommend her to others.”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs big and small, from my neighbors to friends who have trusted me with feeding and walking their dogs. I'm currently opening up my weekends to have open availability for more time with your pets I'm also able to come to your home as well I can provide videos and pictures upon request and through out the day I do check ins with you via phone call, text, or email
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, my whole life, and I will treat every single one of them has my own! Currently have a little white Chihuahua! My work is very flexible and I live two minutes from My work site so your fur babies will never be left alone for longer than four hours. I have a fully fenced 6 feet Privacy fenced yard And a very friendly little Chihuahua that loves all animals! Including cats. My cats are friendly towards any dogs as well!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my deep love and understanding of dogs! I have two adorable toy poodles one is 2 years old and the other is just 8 months and they are truly my babies. Through raising them, I’ve gained a lot of experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. I’ve spent about a year in total attending training sessions to learn how to read dog behaviors, recognize their comfort levels, and train them with patience and love. I can tell when a dog is happy, nervous, or unsure, and I always make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve personally trained both of my dogs, and they are sweet, well-behaved pups thanks to the time and effort I’ve put in. I would treat your dogs just like I do mine—with kindness, attention, and lots of love! I also offer a safe and happy home environment with a fenced-in yard where dogs can play freely and securely. I work from home two days a week, so I’m able to keep an eye on your pet and provide care, snuggles, and playtime throughout the day. I know how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease when they’re away, and I promise to care for your dog like they’re part of the family. Whether they’re a playful puppy or a senior who just wants to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I currently work full time, but I’m usually available after 5:30 PM on weekdays to provide care, playtime, and attention to your pet. On weekends, I’m very flexible and available most of the time, which allows for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays if needed. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy. Two days a week, I work from home, which gives me even more flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. Whether that means letting them out for potty breaks, giving them one-on-one attention, or simply being there so they’re not alone, I’m able to provide a calm and caring environment. Since I already care for my own two dogs daily, routines like feeding, walking, and playtime are already built into my day. Adding more furry friends to that routine is something I truly look forward to it’s not just a task, but something I genuinely love doing! When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fully fenced in yard where dogs can play and explore safely, along with a variety of dog toys and puzzles to keep them engaged and entertained. Inside, I have three separate rooms, which makes it easy to give dogs their own space if they need a break or prefer quiet time. Since I have two toy poodles of my own, I also have plenty of cozy blankets, beds, and enrichment toys to help make every dog feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the dog and their space with the utmost respect and care—just as I would hope someone would do in my own home. I follow all instructions provided, stick to the dog’s usual routine, and make sure to respect any house rules or preferences. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for in a familiar setting, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family!
About: I’ve enjoyed and cared for dogs of all sizes since I was old enough to walk, grew up with German Shepherds, Pit-bulls and a Pomeranian full of energy. I’m currently working remotely and have the flexibility to care for your pet anytime. I manage my schedule two weeks in advance making it a lot easier for everyone. For now I can only offer dog walking services, home-sitting, and day visits. My goal is to not disrupt their routine and help them stay calm while they enjoy some light activity.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carter Lake
Brooks did such an amazing job taking care of our dogs! We always know they are in great hands whenever we are away. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing we can relax, enjoy our time away, and not feel the need to constantly check in because we know they are being well cared for. Brooks is incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and truly great at what he does! He will always be our first choice whenever we need a dog sitter. We can’t recommend him enough!
Natalie was an amazing cat sitter overall. Consistent updates and managed to give both of my cats the attention they deserved. Natalie was amazing on making sure she kept my cat's water, foods and litter boxes refreshed. Her pictures were beautiful too, capturing different angles and having certain themes which made each update an exciting thing to look forward to. Will definitely be booking again! Highly recommend!
Candy took great care of our two elderly pups while we were on vacation. She was reliable, on time, gave updates regularly, and had great communication. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pups. My pups need some extra care in their senior years and Candy handled everything from medication to doggy diapers. I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
I was really worried about leaving my dogs for the weekend because of Franklin’s seizures, but Ashley was so incredible taking care of the boys and staying in contact letting me know how they were doing. Both dogs quickly warmed to her and even the cat came out from hiding when she would stop by! They obviously were well cared for.

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.
