“Thank you so much for going above and beyond in taking care of Mabel! Your informative daily notes and many adorable pictures clearly showed how much love and time you put into watching our furry girl. Honestly, she seemed a little disappointed that we weren’t you when we arrived back home!”
“I discovered I had no one to watch my to somewhat challenging dogs the night before a work event. Jake was professional, offered to have a quick meet and greet before the next day's visit, and showed up on time for both visits. I added a laundry list of concerns to my dog's profile. Luckily my dog loved Jake within 5 minutes of meeting him. So much so, that when my husband returned early and accidentally let Xara escape from the house, it was Jake my dog allowed herself to be caught by. She doesn't allow anyone but her besties to get near her when she is loose.”
“Frida was wonderful with our very shy cat! She tried for 2 days to get him to come out and play and on the third day he did! He played and let her pet him which means he was one happy cat! Frida took good care of him and our house, we highly recommend her and would welcome her back anytime.”
“Chandra is very kind and took great care of Layka for us!! He communicated with us and was very easy to work with. We hope to have him care for Layka (and Sludge) again! :)”
“Emma is fabulous! If you’re looking for a reliable and safe environment for your pet, she’s the one to call. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and took excellent care of my two labs. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“As Callie walked up our driveway she was our Louie’s best friend. She connected with our dog, was very transparent with us. We spent time describing our dog’s behaviors, Callie was curious, knowledgeable and easy to talk to”
About: Hi! My name is Rosie and I have been caring for pets for friends, neighbors, and families for many years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, overnight stays, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. Outside of pet sitting, I have years of babysitting experience, a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Seton Hall University, and I am currently in nursing school. My background has taught me responsibility, patience, and attention to detail. I’m dependable, caring, and will treat your pets like they are my own. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while away! I am currently available all summer with a very flexible schedule and would love to help care for your pets while you’re away on vacations, working long hours, or just need an extra helping hand. I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine including feeding times, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. I will be starting nursing school again in September, so my availability may change slightly, but I will always communicate ahead of time and do my best to continue providing reliable, consistent care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I will always treat your pets like they are my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am respectful of every owner’s home and will follow all instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and special requests to provide the best care possible.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I currently have three dogs and a cat of my own, and I’ve been caring for my cat since I was 8 years old. I began dog sitting over 6 years ago and have provided reliable, loving care for everything from high-energy puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and support. The services I offer include overnight sitting in your home, drop-in visits throughout the day, and dog walking. I’ve volunteered with Bridgewater Animal Shelter and Tabby’s Place: A Cat Sanctuary, where I worked closely with animals of varying temperaments, including shy, anxious, and special-needs pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, kittens, elderly animals, multi-pet households, and maintaining routines that help pets feel safe and secure. I’m currently in school to become a mental health counselor and have studied animal-assisted therapy, which helps me read animal body language, reduce stress, and provide calm, attentive care. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. I can guarantee that I will treat your pet as if they were my own—with patience, love, and respect. I’m currently working part-time so I have a lot of time to do drop ins/walks/etc. I also do not work nights ever so I am available to stay overnight whatever day of the week. MWF I work at a school from 8:30-3:00 and I have classes for my graduate school some days as well. However, the times of the classes would not interfere with my ability to stop by. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out! I have a fenced in yard that is pretty large. There is plenty of room for pets to run around and play. I also have three of my own dogs who are all animal-friendly and love to play! If needed though, they can be separated from your dog or cat because I have gates that can go up to separate them from the upstairs/living room. I also have lots of dog beds and toys and an extra large crate that can be used if needed. I am willing to adapt to whatever your pet needs and also have experience administering medication. Again, let me know if you have any specific questions!
About: I am a Mom of 2 kids and 2 dogs (Vizsla's). I have had dogs, cats and birds my whole life and love all animals. I recently left the corporate world and would love to care for some fur babies while searching for my next opportunity. I would be happy to walk, play indoors/outdoors and care for your pets - whatever you need to keep them happy and safe. My kids and dogs will not be with me during walks or house visits. I am available weekdays Monday-Friday 9am-3pm for house visits or walks. I can play with your pet indoors or outdoors or walk 30-45 minutes around the neighborhood. Safety will be a top priority either in your home, backyard or on a walk in your neighborhood. I will follow all directions given to me by the owner.
About: I’ve always gown up with dogs and I have plenty of experience. I’m always happy to help when needed. I can also provided boarding as needed. I’m currently working full time but I can return home during the day for works and I am free all weekends. Scheduling may vary as needed. I can follow set schedules and ask questions when needed. I do prefer for houses to have cameras so all parties involved are aware of all activity that goes on in the home.
“Louie is always happy to see Alexis and she always leaves a detailed and enthusiastic report on their time together. He and the house are always in great shape when we get home.”
About: I’m the biggest dog lover you’ll meet! I love puppies of all sizes and have had dogs my entire life. In the past couple years, I have watched dogs for 5+ families. I have also walked dogs for 10+ families. Feel free to ask me for references or message me any questions. I am currently in college and have open availability. Able to care for pets any day or time with enough notice! I am also open to last minute visits. I understand most families feel most comfortable with their pet remaining at home, and I am willing to commute to homes. I live in an apartment building in a spacious apartment with an easily accessible backyard, and I can care for pets from my home as well.
“Sheila did a fabulous job! She cared for and loved my pets and made them so happy and did all of the essential things needed for an outdoor job. She is a good correspondent and took great pictures.”
“Sarah was excellent with Chase. She followed his routine carefully, communicated clearly, and handled everything with confidence. Chase is a senior tripod and needs a bit of extra support, and she managed his let‑outs, feeding, medications, and mobility needs without any issues. We had an unexpected power outage during our booking, and Sarah immediately stepped in with solutions to keep Chase safe and comfortable. She was flexible, dependable, and proactive throughout the entire situation. Chase was well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was with her. We will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend.”
“Amazing! Our doggies loved him. He took extra care and truly altered his schedule to surround our dogs at the center of it. Consistently responsive, and let us know of every single detail which was most appreciative. Excited to book him again!”

“Ola was an angel! We had to make two modifications to our original booking over this holiday weekend and she was so helpful and accommodating. She went above and beyond my expectation when it came to cleaning up a pet mess in our home. And she was so kind and loving to our fur babies each and every time she came to see them. I am so grateful that we met Ola and I look forward to working with her in the future.”

Emma is amazing! She took special care of my dog Ollie and my daughter's dog Moose during her wedding weekend. She made sure to send pictures and even put soothng music on for them. She sent me texts when she realized Ollie was limping from slipping on our new flooring. She's very caring and professional. Would absolutely ask for her help again!!

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.
