About: I have experience with both younger dogs and elderly dogs. I have specifically worked with senior dogs, who required special care getting around, keeping track of their medication schedule, and their diets. I'm currently working part time and remotely, so I'll have a lot of time to spend with your dogs. I also enjoy taking walks, so I'll make sure your dogs are getting the outside time they need! I have a large fenced in yard at my home, along with plenty of dog toys. I can also crate your dog if needed. There are also a few trails nearby which are easy and engaging for dogs to walk through.
“We loooove Hannah!!! She is always on time, great with our pets and so sweet! She sends funny photos of them as well and makes sure our house is locked/mail is taken in. ❤️”
“My cats were well taken care of received live updates and photos. They looks so happy and healthy. The fact that my cats interacted with Gina and Alana says alot! I will be re-booking!”
About: I have had cats since I was a kid, walked my friends’ dogs in the neighborhood and just love being outside in their company walking and playing. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time during the day to walk your pet friend. I love to be outside in any weather and will take nice long walks and play. My family member has developed bad allergies so I cannot have my own pets. I love dogs and cats a lot and will enjoy their company.
About: I’m a reliable and caring college student who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I’ve had my two cats for the past two years, so I’m used to feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable every day. I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, and keeping them company while they were away. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked as a private caregiver and in customer service, which has taught me how to be responsible, patient, and dependable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a loved one, whether it’s a person or a pet, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student and work part time so I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I’m available on many weekdays and weekends and will always make time to give your pet the attention, exercise and care they deserve. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you know your pet is in good hands. I know every pet has their own routine, and I always do my best to stick to it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve cared for my own two cats for the past two years and have also helped friends care for their dogs through feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. My experience as a private caregiver has taught me to be patient, dependable, respectful of other people’s homes, and attentive to small details, so you can feel confident that your pet will be treated like one of my own.
About: I’ll take care of your beloved pet as if they were my own — with love, kindness and patience. Most of all, I will be sensitive to their needs and limitations (i.e. making sure pavement is not too hot, monitoring them for cold/ heat exposure, etc.) I will make time to fit you and your pet's schedule to walk your dog at the optimal time. Flexible with regard to weather, esp. for pets who are sensitive to heat and cold. During each walk I am prepared to keep your pet safe and protect them from other animals and traffic depending on where we walk by carrying bear spray, air horn, head harness, water bowl, or whatever the situation calls for. I also have an access to car pick up if there is an emergency. Ask me about the charity I am donating to, and a promo code to save money on your first booking! I am à school speech therapist and have limited availability. Right now I am willing to take on 1-2 clients per day. If you are able, please request a free trial / meet and greet before your first booking. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood or take them to a park for a fun outing! If they are not up to walking on that day, we can just play or smell the grass together! My goal is for your dog to have an immersive, engaging walk so they are can rest when they get home- dog and human together, enjoying outdoors with all 5 senses!
“Ryan was great with our very energetic five month old German Shorthair Pointer. He spent lots of time outside with him and sent lots of pictures. He was flexible with adjusting timing when our plans changed slightly.”
About: I’ve been caring for my own animals since childhood and grew up with big dogs. Today I share my life with an 80-pound hound mix and a Velcro cat. I’m naturally empathetic, reliable, and genuinely happiest when caring for animals. Your pets will always have my full attention, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including energetic puppies and gentle seniors. I adapt easily to different personalities and routines, whether that means patience, structure, or extra affection. Got a dog who pulls on the leash? I’ve got you. Got a cat who needs a little extra love and reassurance? I’ve got that covered too. I’m here for all your needs. I do work a typical 8-4 job with other hobbies of mine. But I’m open on weekends and nights! Weekends are pretty open both Saturday and Sunday. Nights I’m available for walks and drop ins after 5pm! I have a fenced in yard. However I am going to prefer to come to your house. My dog is a queen and would rather me not bring home dogs. Lol.
About: Hi there! I’m Kelli and I absolutely love dogs. I’ve spent years caring for pets, working with family and friends pets to ensure their dogs are well-fed, active, and happy while they’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, I’m committed to giving your dog the same care and attention I would give my own. With my experience and love for animals, you can rest easy knowing your furry friend will be in good hands! i am currently working full time but WFH monday and Friday any time plus Saturdays and Sundays anytime you need I would love to help out anyone😊 I have a fenced in yard and my own dog to keep your dog company if you want! It is perfect to get them air and have some fun
“Mike immediately was one of Freddy’s favorite humans. He had a natural positive energy when he met Freddy for the first time and it’s still like that. He’s communicative and shows up on time. It’s great to have someone reliable to take care of our furry family member while we’re working.”
“Jaylene was great! She took great care of our elderly cat and did a wonderful job keeping us updated. She gave her meds and kept our cat comfortable. We would definitely have her care for our kitty again!”
About: For years I have been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, let me be yours as well! I have had Dogs and Cats my entire life. Growing up we had five cats and a dog all at the same time! Currently a cat dad of two. I am available most weekends and after 5pm weekdays as I work full time as well. I am available most weekends, and am available after 5pm Monday-Friday. I work full time so weekend visits are primarily my focus, but if needed I can do evenings during the week so you can enjoy a date night, events, or whatever else life throws at you I love every animal like it's my own, I am a lover of all animals big and small. I will provide pictures and videos if you'd like to ensure peace of mind that your pets are not only cared for, but are having the best time!
“As always, Jodi did a fantastic job. I was out of the country for the third time, and she always made sure that my cat received great care on each drop-in visit. I really appreciated her communication and snapshots of my cat. I will continue to use her services.”
About: Growing up on a farm, I developed a special bond with animals. I was always surrounded by furry friends, learning to care for them. I have a unique connection with cats and dog. They have always been my loyal companions and playful buddies. I can sense when something’s off with an animal and respond with care. Friends and family call me an animal whisperer. I can’t wait to meet your cats and dogs, love them, and treat them like my own! 💝 ****Unfortunately I do not offer 24/7 care**** I’m currently in between jobs so I have plenty of time to love and care for your pets. Even when I am employed, I always make it a priority to take care of your pets. This isn’t just a side job for me, this is my passion. However I DO NOT offer 24/7 care as I have pets of my own to care for. For your home, my goal is safety and peace of mind for you. I will make sure gates are secured, leashes are buckled and doors are closed to prevent any sort of escapes.
“Jake did a great job taking care of my two cats (we did drop-in visits). He sent lots of pictures, provided detailed updates, and left all the dishes and food containers spotless. I was confident leaving them with him and would absolutely recommend his services to others. Thanks, Jake!”
About: I am a registered nurse by trade but enjoy caring for a various assortment of animals (dogs, cats, snakes/reptiles, birds, fish). Before I became a nurse I was a dog grooming assistant (so if your special pup needs a bath or brushing I can help). I have experience dealing with an assortment of dog personalities and age ranges. Medication administration is also no issue (having prior experience with pills, drops and ointments). I work remotely Monday to Friday and am able to stay or drop in throughout the day given proper notice of the pet’s needs. I am fully capable of providing walks and playtime based on your pet’s requirements as well as accommodate special care such as medication, alternate relieving strategies (pee pads, diapers etc).

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 .
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.

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 use the 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 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.
