About: I've taken care of dogs, since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. In my family we have all ways had 2 small dogs, and now I have my current dog of 5 years, love him so much like my baby, sleeps and cuddles with me all the time. I'm currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to play/walk with your pups! I'm available for dog walking, while my son is in school and in the afternoon. Open availability on the weekends. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.
“My 2 cats were taken care of with kindness, attention and in a timely manner. I hadn't had to hire a pet sitter before and it was great have the confidence in a sitter so I could enjoy my time away.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for 3 weeks at a time. I've trained dogs basic skills like sit, down, roll over, turn around, leave it, and sit and stay. I've had many dogs of my own and 2 cats I'm available to watch animals before and after work and I can also attend to them in between 12 and 1 on my lunch break. I work from 8:00 to 5:00. I'm early riser. I Love to keep them happy while their owners are away. When I'm caring for animals, I spend time with them I make sure they're well fed and have plenty of water. What makes me happy is having your baby happy while you are away. I love taking them for walks or even going to the park. I do like cuddling. I have no problem with your fur baby sleeping with me at night.
“Teresa is a very thorough sitter. We use her to do drop-ins for our cats when we are gone for extended periods of time. She will check and make sure the cats get some attention and sends lots of pictures of them with each check in. She also makes sure the cats have water, food, and clean litter boxes. I would definitely recommend her for animal check ins.”
“Margerita was great! She is clearly an animal lover! She was on time, took clear pictures of my two senior boys when they ate, and cleaned the cat box just like I requested (it fills up too fast to skip it, because kidney disease). She spent time hanging out so they got the human interaction that these two social cats crave. She has a very friendly and polite demeanor, and a flexible schedule that made it easy to come by at the times I needed her. I would hire her again!”
About: Hi, I grew up in a pet household and have 10+ years caring for multiple dogs and cats. I have some experience administering medicine as well. I telework Wednesday- Friday and have most weekends available to walk or drop-in with your pet! I am available after 4:30pm on the weekdays and open on the weekends. If you’re close enough to me I could even drop in during the day on a weekday. I would treat your pets the same way I treat my own, like family. I understand the potential stress that can come when your pet meets someone new and am ready to make the effort to gain their trust.
“I can't recommend Cyndi enough! She took care of my cat for three weeks and did an amazing job. Cyndi kept me updated with cute pics and messages, and my cat was super happy in her care. She's the best!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since a child. As an adult I’ve fostered several dogs to help find them homes. Big animal lover who likes structure. I don’t let my pets in the kitchen and try to teach them not to beg. I currently have open availability, so plenty of time to help play with your pups and care for them while you’re gone. Whether it just be for a few hours, or overnight. I have a smaller backyard, but it fenced, and available for pets to use. I live close by a gorgeous park, so love heading for walks, & playing catch somewhere nearby.
About: Hello, I am an animal lover with a pretty flexible schedule and a heart full of compassion. I believe pets are family and should be treated as such. I am present and fun and guarantee your fur babies will love their time with me! I enjoy spending time with animals and playing outdoors with them for long and short periods of time and also understand dogs have emotions just like people and need love just the same. I truly believe your pets will enjoy their time with me and will be very well taken care of while in my care. I understand how stressful vacation planning can already be and look forward to helping out with your fur babies in anyway possible. Talk to you soon! I’m currently working part-time (school hours) and have plenty of time to play and care for your pets after work. That is if they still have energy after spending all morning with my hubby, as he works nights. I am pretty much free after 3pm on weekdays. As for the month of June I am available after 1pm and completely available for the month of July. I enjoy spending time with animals and giving them time to explore the outdoors. I am patient and am able to keep up with high energy pets as well. I use baby gates in my home for safety and access.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to their needs. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, bathing, and giving your pet lots of love and attention while you’re away I’m currently home full-time with a very flexible schedule while my education is on pause. I’m looking to make some extra money doing something I love, and I’d be happy to spend that time caring for and keeping your pets company! I have a large, fully fenced backyard for dogs to play safely. Inside, I have a clean, comfortable space for cats, puppies, and senior dogs to relax. I’ll make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: I’m a certified veterinary assistant that’s been working with pets medically/professionally for over 7 years. I live in Modesto, CA but work at a vet clinic in Stockton Thursday night - Monday morning. If I have work I will be taking your pet back and forth with me. I am more than willing to allow you in my house to take a look around as well as sharing temporary locations via Apple or life 360. Feel free to call or text for updates. I work from 9am-6pm (and sometimes over-time) about 5 days a week. Please contact me directly to see if our schedules are a potential match. No exceptions, your pet MUST be okay with dogs and cats. It’s highly recommended that they be on flea/tick/heartworm preventatives but it’s a definite no if fleas or ticks are spotted on your pet. I cannot accept any big dogs at this time due to my apartment regulations. Big breaded puppies are okay but I would not be able to be a long-time pet sitter for your big baby. My pets are very friendly with others so I usually have your pet out and about with mine, under supervision. When it comes time for me to go to work, I usually take my boarder with me so they aren’t alone and unsupervised. It’s also highly recommended that your pet be kennel trained because I usually do try to kennel them over night for the safety of themselves, my pets, and my property. Some pets are okay overnight and a kennel is not needed but it really depends on the pet and how they do 😊
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, from my own pets to those of friends, family, and neighbors. I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors. In my professional life, I work in a specialized education setting where patience, consistency, and reading behavior are essential skills. That experience has made me calm under pressure and attentive to individual needs, qualities that carry over naturally into pet care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that every pet is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happiest. My goal is simple: to provide the kind of care that lets you leave home with complete peace of mind. My schedule is flexible and I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended care with advance notice. I do my best to keep a consistent routine for each pet, so they know what to expect and feel comfortable while you're away. If you have specific timing needs, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I take safety seriously and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. I follow instructions carefully and keep routines consistent so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I’m focused on keeping things calm, safe, and stress-free for your pet.
About: I provide safe, reliable, and loving care for your dog like they’re my own. With over 15 years of experience, I’ve worked with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I’ve also rescued dogs and helped find them loving homes, giving me real hands-on experience with different temperaments and behaviors. Your dog will be in a calm, clean, and structured environment with: • A fenced yard for safe play • Daily walks and exercise • Lots of attention, love, and supervision • Experience with potty training and leash training I also have knowledge from veterinary assistant training, so I’m comfortable with medications and special care if needed. I understand how important your pet is to you, so I always keep communication open with updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is simple: To make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently an Esthetician that works from home so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pups. Plus my children and I take walks twice a day in my neighborhood. I have a fence in yard and a min dachshund to play with your furry friend. Can crate dog if needed. Dogs are allowed in my house if they are well behaved.
About: Growing up with animals my whole life I’ve always had a fond love of my pets. I’ve watched numerous family and friends animals while they were away and loved spending time with every one of their pets. I furthered my education by obtaining a bachelors degree in animals science and working in vet medicine, it’s to safe to say it’s my passion! Can’t wait to meet your beloved pets! My schedule is flexible enough to maintain your pets normal routines and schedules! Other than work my priority would be your pets!

Having 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own, I understand just how important our pets are and how we love them like family. I am passionate about providing the best care for your pets as I would care for my own. I strive to ensure your pets are provided for in the best way possible that fits all your needs and provides comfort and peace of mind to you and your family.
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

Teresa is a very thorough sitter. We use her to do drop-ins for our cats when we are gone for extended periods of time. She will check and make sure the cats get some attention and sends lots of pictures of them with each check in. She also makes sure the cats have water, food, and clean litter boxes. I would definitely recommend her for animal check ins.

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 .

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.
