“Erika was great, my request was pretty last minute and she was able to stop by and take care of Dexter. I would highly recommend booking with Erika, I could tell she took really great care of him.”
About: My whole life I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats. I’ve done some overnight house sitting with dogs within the last couple of years. Im comfortable with both older and younger animals. I personally have one cat of my own. I adore all types of animals. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to have the time to make sure the best care is given to your pets. I have always been a very vigilant pet owner. Having grown up with many different kinds of pets, I’m well aware each animal has their own needs. Whether that be a dog who has a ton of energy and needs a more engaging walk, or one who like to take a slower stroll. I’m ready for whatever needs your animal may have.
“Ashley has been fantastic with our Schnauzer Truman. She has always been prompt and a excellent communicator. I would not hesitate to use her again and recommend to others.”
“I have used Amina many times over the last year for my big babies. She is so good with them and loving. They are both very large dogs and people can be off put, she never had an issue and was very accepting of my German Shephard being shy at first. I will ALWAYS recommend her for anyone needing pet care.”
“Bethany is really good!!!! She took care of our baby very well, even helped us to clean up when our cat puked and took out the trash 😭 we appreciate her help a lot. Will def reschedule her next time if we are out of town.”
About: I've lived with cats and worked with dogs my whole life. From bathing my grandma's dog to walking pit bulls at the shelter, animals have always been a part of my life. Over the summer I'm looking for work wherever I can take it but mostly open. In the school year I am usually never gone more than 3 hours. I live in a pet friendly basement apartment with air conditioning. There is space for a kennel and other supplies if needed. It's not gigantic is very clean and the complex has a bark park.
“I was really grateful to know that I could count on Meredith to take care of my animals after a 15 hour workday has been intense for two weeks and I need to be able to step away and focus 100% on my work annoying they were taken care of and safe and not stuck inside or in a crate and having somebody come let them out while I was at work is worth it to me they are my family you can count on Meredith and know nothing was stolen”
About: With over a decade of dedicated pet care experience, I've honed my skills as a compassionate caregiver. My journey began with my best friend, Franklin, a thirteen-year-old dog whose loyalty has taught me the true meaning of responsibility and empathy. From late-night walks to soothing belly rubs, I've embraced every moment, cherishing the bond we share. Ultimately, our animals aren't just pets; they're family. We treat them like family, spoil them like family, and love them like family. You can rely on me to go above and beyond for your furry friends! Rest assured, I am committed to providing your animals with the exceptional care they deserve, mirroring the love and attention I give my best friend. As a teacher, I cherish my breaks and am eager to fill them with something I'm genuinely passionate about, ensuring our pets live their happiest lives possible! In both my home and my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a nurturing environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. This includes regular feeding schedules, ample exercise tailored to their needs, and plenty of playtime and affection. Additionally, I am able to maintain open communication with pet owners to ensure their specific preferences and requirements are met.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I treat each one like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and I'm comfortable administering medications and following special care instructions. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care around my classes. Pet care is already a regular part of my routine, and I make time to give every pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I'll always communicate my availability clearly and ensure your pet receives consistent, dependable care. Hi! I'm someone you can count on to give your pets the same love and care they receive at home. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I make it a priority to follow it closely. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving them lots of attention and affection, my goal is to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. I treat every pet like they're my own and believe that patience, reliability, and communication are key to providing the best care possible. I'll make sure you have peace of mind by giving your furry family member the love and attention they deserve. Services I offer: 🐾 Drop-in visits- includes potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. 🚶 Dog walks- includes a fun stroll through the fresh air, either in your neighborhood or around a nearby trail to ensure your pup is getting some fresh air and exercise. 🏡 Dog sitting- includes staying overnight with your pup so they have company and comfort in their home. During this time, I provide daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime, and of course, cuddles. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and provide dependable care you can trust!

“Liz did an amazing job with my fur baby Dior. She Mae sure Dior was comfortable with her and gave her lots of love, play time and cuddle time. She noticed that Dior was not eating and she tried everything she could to get her to eat and it worked. Dior fell in love with Liz and her wife. Liz brung along her wife that also keep Dior company with cuddles. They are very nice people. Liz came to my home at did drop in visits with Dior and Dior fell in love with Liz and her wife. I was able to peek in on visits with my ring cam and Dior cried out for Liz each time she left. So Liz came up with a great idea to keep Dior occupied while she was able to leave. She also will discipline Dior when she needed correction on any behavior. Overall, I would recommend Liz and you can trust her in your home. She also arranged for visits with such a short notice. Thank you LIZ and wife!!!!!!!!!”

Lindsay did great with our doggy while we were away on vacation, keeping us updated on how she was doing and acting and taking photos of her during the in home visits. The photos appeared that she was well taken care of and I appreciated Lindsay’s communication. It’s clear that she cares a lot for animals. Would recommend and use her again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cedar Falls stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
