“Sol was the best thing we could have done for our kitties during vacation. Not only did she provide peace of mind for us, but our three cats were so relaxed when we got back! It was like we never left! We will definitely be rebooking with her!”
“Anna always follows directions and makes sure all pets are taken care of fully. We are always confident that our pets will get the best attention while we are away on vacation when we book Anna! We highly recommend Anna for any pet care needs!”
“Kaylie was awesome! My usual sitters cancelled less than 2 days before my booking. Kaylie responded quickly to my request and was able to accommodate even at the last minute. She was even available to drop by prior so I could show her where to find everything and for my kits to meet her. My female cst is very picky about who she likes and Kaylie passed her test!! ? Kaylie was very punctual and took great care of our kits. She kept us updated at every visit and sent pictures.”
“Chloe was awesome! She was super responsive when I was in a pinch and requested last minute. She hit all the requested drop in times and kept me updated with pictures. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Cara was fantastic! She was really thorough in taking good care of my kitty girl and kept me updated with pictures the whole time I was gone. I really appreciated her and would recommend her!”
“We’re repeat clients and will continue to be! Just so reliable and wonderful with our pups. We continue to be appreciative of the peace of mind they give us when we’re away.”
“As a first time rover user I definitely couldn’t have chosen a better person to watch my dog. I can’t say I wasn’t overthinking and worried about harper, but she was very communicative on updates, and I can tell my dog was very happy to see her every time she came for a check in. 100% going to become a reoccurring customer. Thank you!”
“Nicole did an excellent job taking care of my little chickens. She was easy to communicate with and flexible. She even kept the coop clean and tidy and spent time with my chicks. I will definitely use her again.”
“Did an amazing job with our pets and understood our cats' food quirks. The pets seemed smitten with her and she followed all instructions for the pets. Communicated well, and promptly. Let us know immediately when she couldnt find our cat (he was just in one of his hiding places) and found him promptly. Sent lots of pictures. Would recommend.”
“Quick to respond and was very easy to interact with! Looked after my cats for a few days, stopping into my home while we were away. Felt like they were in good hands, thanks!”
“Kimberly took great care of my shy cat, Lola, making sure she was okay and giving her treats. She also went above and beyond with extra help around the house — refilling food and water, changing the litter, and even resetting my robot vacuum when it got stuck. Highly recommend!”
“Samantha did a wonderful job and really helped my family out with accepting our last minute booking. She was very thoughtful and diligent in her job. I was sent pictures at every visit and was updated with any changes. Even with unpredictable weather and crap conditions she always kept me in the loop and made her visits no matter what. I am very please and look forward to working with her again in the future and I'm sure my fur babies feel the same!”
“Overall excellent service! Elizabeth is punctual, reliable, goes above and beyond with communicating about our pup, and is so kind. Our dog jumps with joy every time he sees her.”
“Amanda is always amazing! She has checked on my cats and chickens for me two or three times now, and she never disappoints! Her updates are thorough, she shares adorable pictures of my babies, and even feeds snacks to the chickens sometimes. They are used to our kitchen scraps on a daily basis, so I'm sure they really apperciate the snacks she gives while we are gone. 😊 The cats love her and love her attention. She hangs out the full half hour to give them the love they crave while we are gone. I couldn't apperciate her more!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and treat every pet as if they were my family. As a dog owner and a person with anxiety, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby. I’m fully committed to making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist, so patience, attentiveness, and communication are all qualities of mine. I pay close attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I’m more than happy to accommodate medication schedules, special feeding routines, puppy care, and senior pet care. As a military spouse, I 100% understand that plans can change and am very flexible. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates with plenty of photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! I am now home full-time with my son who is 3 months old. Therefore, I have pretty open availability to provide loving and reliable care for your fur babies. I live in a military community that is dog friendly and I also have a mini labradoodle who can keep your dog company! He absolutely loves new friends!
“she has gone above and beyond for both of my kitties while i’ve been away. i can’t thank Constance enough for the security and well being in our absence. She is always willing to do a task for me, whether i ask for it or not. Book Constance if you’ve been searching for a great Rover!!!!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chico
Sophia came in clutch! Our other sitter got sick and couldn't make it while we were out of town. I sent her a message and she replied within 15 min. I sent pictures with instructions. She asked follow up questions to make sure our animals got the best care! 10/10 would recommend!! Will be using again!
I've selected Kaylie multiple times, and I will continue to select her to place my pet in her care. She is excellent, and always shows enthusiasm at giving him care. Her updates are a joy to read. When Kaylie is in my home caring for my dog, I always rest assured. 10/10 will use her again.
Cheyenne was absolutely amazing! She came by daily to take great care of Poppinbeats and kept me updated every day with the cutest photos and helpful messages. She even caught things I wouldn’t have noticed, like when my automatic litter box got stuck. I seriously couldn’t ask for better care. This was hands down one of the best pet-sitting experiences I’ve had, and I’d be more than happy to have her take care of Poppinbeats again. When I got home, Poppinbeats was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. So appreciative of Cheyenne . highly recommend!

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 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 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.
