“Margaret was amazing. So many pictures and updates and you could tell she really cares about my two cats. Heck, the less nervous one was excited to see her! Thank you so much for taking care of my cats. I wish you all the best and will definitely use your services again if needed.”
“Amanda was awesome with my high maintenance mastiff! She keeps me informed on how my dog is doing and she sends lots of pictures. When I had to book extra visits last minute due to my mother’s death, she didn’t hesitate to help me.”
About: We love all kinds of animals and have been a rescue family for years! Both my husband and I have always had pets and have been a safe home for neglected or abandoned dogs We work from home and can give all the love and attention deserved!! Our dogs and rabbits have a dependable schedule and are crate trained We provide an enriching fun safe environment for our dog and rabbits. We have an invisible fence but our dogs never wear their collars now that they know to stay in the yard. They love walks and romping in our wooded yard
“Everything went perfect. Answered all questions and messages very quickly. Did everything we asked and showed up on time everyday. We will definitely book again. Thanks again.”
“Yall - our cat Bombur has had some medical issues and needed a specific medication regimen in addition to the two other cats she was helping us with. My most scared cat came up to her! She has the best energy. She sent photos and went above and beyond.”
“Robin was fantastic with my two cats! Treated them like her own, and they eventually warmed up to her (which is unusual for my cats!) I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my boys!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. I am never aggressive with animals but I am strong and athletic if you’re pet has a lot of energy. I currently work as a personal trainer so my hours are flexible depending on when I have clients. My schedule is more open than usual right now. I always make sure the pets have fresh water and are able to enjoy their walks as their time. I understand the importance of being consistent with pets so I always keep up with the owners specific preferences.
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid, and animals have always had a special place in my heart. I have a gift for connecting with pets I'm meeting for the first time — even the shy or standoffish ones tend to warm up to me quickly. I raised my own dog for 13 years, guiding him through anxiety issues from puppyhood all the way into adulthood, so I understand firsthand how much patience and consistency can matter. I know how important feeding schedules and medication routines are, and I make sure they're followed carefully and on time, every time. Through pet sitting apps, I've cared for a wide variety of dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs — nothing has been too much to handle. I lead with patience, adaptability, and a genuine love for animals. A quick note on availability: between my work schedule and time with my daughter, I'm away from home between 9am and 6pm daily. I'm a great fit for pets who are comfortable being on their own during that window, and I'll make sure they're well cared for and comfortable before and after. I'm also proud to be LGBTQ+ friendly and welcome clients from all walks of life. Building trust is everything to me — I want you to feel confident that your pet (and your home, if I'm house sitting) is in caring, capable hands. I am generally open to anything my time slots provide. Overnights should not be an issue but will need to be talked about prior to booking. I do NOT have have a place to house dogs so currently I am only a house sitter. Please let me know if you have any questions! I used to care for 2 dogs and a cat while i was with my wife but now i just have the cat. The cat is very much self sufficient, although she does revel in all the pets that we have to offer, but the dogs take more work! I love to take dogs on walks in the various parks around where i am living and will do the same for yours! If you have favorite spot let me know about it!! I can incorporate a walk there for your pups if you would like!
“Nicole was great to work with, especially since our travel plans changed at the last minute. She kept us updated on our diabetic cat, and even gave him his twice a day insulin shots. We would definitely book Nicole again.”
“Marek went above & beyond for my requests, he even wiped up the floor when it was raining. He brought & used HIS OWN towel for that. 10/10 would always use his services again!”
About: I have been responsible for dogs for most of my life. I absolutely LOVE dogs. I have loved and cared for every breed of dog from a 4 lb teacup chihuahua to my now 80+ lb St. berdoodle, Luca. I currently work from home, so I’ll always be with your fur baby, and my Luca. I have the flexibility to potty breaks as needed and can accommodate just about any routine needed to make your dogs stay comfortable! I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a screened in porch, Luca and I hang out on the porch pretty often to get the fresh air he loves. Potty breaks will all be leashed, and weather permitting we can walk down to the dog park for some additional fun! Luca has been coined the “gentle giant” from his sitter we met from Rover. He will tire your dog out wanting to play, but no fear, nothing but nice, just LOVES to run and play - with any size friends!
“Maja was AMAZING! I had a prolonged power outage while away and she not only stopped in additional times to make sure my cat was ok/not too hot/auto-feeder was working, she also offered to clean out my fridge so it wouldn’t be full if spoiled food when I returned. She definitely went above and beyond!”
About: I have always grown up with animals! I have trained all of my families dogs and am familiar with puppies and senior dogs with special needs. I would love to walk your dogs, practice tricks, or just hangout with them! I work part time so I will have ample time to spend with your best friend! my schedule is very flexible. I also love staying active with running and hiking, so I am always happy to take high-energy pups along with me to burn off some steam. I exclusively provide care in my clients' homes so that your pets can stay completely relaxed in their familiar environment. I am deeply respectful of your personal space and will strictly follow all of your house rules and pet routines. Whether we are cuddling inside or heading out for a brisk walk, your pet's safety and happiness are my absolute top priorities.
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy with Kristina. She definitely gave me a peace of mind. She sent me pictures and I loved seeing my little kitty girl having fun! Thank you so much Kristina! 🤗”
About: I have grown up my entire life around pets and animals of all varieties. Dogs, cats, Parakeets, and even hamsters. I have learned and grown to love and care for animals because I view them as family, not just pets. I have walked dogs and have house sat for many years and am considered experienced with most forms of care and service to pets such as dogs and cats I work a full time job as a social studies educator where I teach seventh grade through 12th grade world, history and government classes. Teaching is my absolute passion and I love working with kids of all ages To help guide them towards helping them become better versions of themselves every single day! Teaching may be my passion, but I love working with animals on the side when I have spare time. I am free on weekends, most evenings, and free almost the entire summer. I am easily and readily available for evenings and even summers to take care of your furry friends while you may be away for longer periods of time! I currently live in a single bedroom apartment with only one furry firmed if my own. He is a 6 year old American Short-Hair who is the sweetest of kitties and my entire world. I adopted him when he was just a month old and he has been with me his whole life. My apartment is located next to nearby parks and grassy areas for walks and exercise. My apartment is also smoke-free and is in a pet-friendly neighborhood with quiet streets and friendly neighbors.

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.
