“Easy to contact and arrange meet up a few days before leaving; not to recommend last minute booking. Maurina took notes of verbal instructions and asked important questions. She followed through with just as requested. Maurina understands cat needs. She used good judgement, and was a pleasure to meet.”

“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of Bella and Bear while we were out of town! She was dependable, attentive, and took great care of them, which gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We came home to two happy, well cared for dogs. We would absolutely trust Ashley with them again and highly recommend her!”

“Warren stepped up to check in on Nyx and Woody when we had a need at short notice. He made sure the dogs had food, water, attention and got their meds. He also took the time to clean up after old man Woody when he messed in the house. The dogs always looked happy in the check in photos. Would definitely book again.”
About: I am a reliable caregiver for pets, growing up with dogs and now having cats of my own. I know the feeling of leaving my pets alone and want to ensure that you have comfort knowing your own will be taking care of according to your request. During the week, I am happy to let dogs out or take them on a walk after my work hours. I am flexible for house sitting, potty breaks, and walks on the weekends Friday night through Mondays. From the type of feed, to the comfort of my animals, it is my priority to ensure their environment is stress free, yet entertaining. I commit to doing the same for you when servicing your requests.

About: I loved working on ranches and dog sitting throughout my highschool and college time. I have always enjoyed getting out with the animals to make sure they are feeling energized! I have a fairly flexible schedule at this time. I would be able to let the dogs out or take them on a walk early afternoon. I’m able to take the dogs out on walks fairly often if I am living near. I also would be able to crate the puppy easily and take them on walks throughout the day.
“Always thankful to have Amanda watch our cats! Love the attention she pays to them and our house and all the pictures and descriptions she shares from her visits! Our favorite pet sitter!”

About: As a longtime dog owner with three dogs of my own, I have hands-on experience caring for different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I also care for a diabetic senior dog, so I understand how important consistency, patience, close observation, and dependable care are—especially for older pets or those with additional needs. Since retiring from the Air Force, I have a flexible, open schedule that allows me to make pet care a regular part of my day. I’m available throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening for walks and drop-in visits, including many weekends. Because I’m not trying to squeeze visits around a full-time job, I can give your pet my full attention, arrive reliably, and maintain a consistent routine. I also have flexibility for recurring visits and reasonable last-minute requests. For walks and drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your pet’s normal routine and all instructions you provide. I’ll confirm that doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I will never allow a dog off-leash unless we are in a safely enclosed area and you have specifically approved it. During drop-ins, I can provide fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and approved medications according to your instructions.

About: I’m currently taking some time at home between careers, so I have plenty of time and attention to give your pup! I have a sweet, well mannered two year old pup named Levi who loves making new friends. We enjoy two walks a day, plenty of indoor playtime, and lots of cuddles. I also cared for dogs while I was in college, and it brought me so much joy so I’d love to start doing it again! I’m home throughout the day, so I can easily tailor my schedule to your pet’s routine and needs. I typically only leave for a hour or so a few times a week to go to run errands or pickup groceries so your pup will receive plenty of attention, and playtime! I have a fully fenced yard where we can safely play and enjoy the fresh air, as well as a deck where we love to relax together in the evenings. Inside, there is a comfy couch, or your pup is welcome get cozy on one of the many dog beds and blankets throughout the house.
About: Much like Romulus and Remus, I was raised with/by dogs growing up! I absolutely love dogs! Big dogs, lil dogs, fluffy dogs, energetic dogs, old dogs all dogs are great. I am currently without my 5 year old black lab for the next 6 months and want to get pets and walks to make up for the lost time with my pupperonni! My dogs name is Wanda, she is great but a ball of energy (like most labs). I have had her since she was a puppy and she is crate trained, house trained and just a very good girl! She is the light and soul of my life (dont tell my GF) ! I am trying to be healthy and would love to have a dog to walk with when I explore Sumter! I am shift work but will balance my schedule accordingly to walk dogs or let them out when required. I mostly work night shift allowing me to have the flexibility during the day to get out for walks and stay active! I am a 30 year old guy with no kids. My dog is my kid. My daily routine I had with Wanda was to let out every morning and play fetch with her or walk her. I would then bring her inside to calm down, I’d shower and then go back downstairs to feed her since she’s caught her breathe and cooled off by then. After she’s eaten I would let her out potty again and then she is chill for the day until evening time where I would bring her out on another walk or a swim at my cottage at home which I’m dearly missing and then when she has calmed down from that I would feed her dinner. Most nights I try to do 10ish mins of training with her and she loves the treats anyways so it’s very easy. She knows sit, stay (for a long time and a big distance), paw (both), she can spin, she can do a tunnel (go between my legs) and she can spin around me and sit on my left or right side! I will admit she is a lab and very food driven/motivated so training her was relatively easy with the right treats. She is the best and I miss my dog and want to be able to play with other people’s dogs!
“Dorian has been wonderful to work with. He’s helped us when we had schedule changes, is communicative, dependable, and takes such wonderful care of our pup. Can’t recommend him enough and glad we found him!”

About: I enjoy keeping cats and dogs well and at ease while their owners are away. I’ve had many cats and a couple of dogs. I know leash commands and I like walking.

About: Hi! I’m a dog mom to two pups of my own and recently used Rover for the first time while traveling. I was so impressed by the care and peace of mind it gave me that I decided I’d love to offer that same experience to others. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone kind, dependable, and attentive. I provide a calm, cozy environment and will care for your pets with patience, love, and plenty of updates while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to be with your pets morning, noon and night. Some days I will be working 4 hour shifts, but otherwise I will be around. I will come to your house and follow your lead on schedules and needs of your pets. I’m happy to give meds or follow special instructions.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of pets of my own as well as pets for friends and family. I am currently working from home so I am available anytime to pet sit. I’d prefer weekends off however I am open to sitting occasionally on weekends. For my personal pet I take her on walks every hour to every hour and a half. I also feed twice a day and play with her often.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two corgis of my own, Chimi and Churro, so caring for pups is just part of my everyday life. They’re my little adventure buddies, and we love being outside together, going on walks, exploring trails, and soaking up fresh air. Because I’m used to handling my own energetic dogs daily, I’m comfortable with all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn energy, playtime, or slower, gentle care, I’m happy to match their pace and routine. My goal is lots of love, exercise, and a very happy dog. Im currently working at a dental office Monday-Thursday 9am-5:30pm. So I’m available most weekdays if you need a quick walk or drop-ins, if not I'm available Friday-Sunday with whatever pet needs you may have! In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and treat your space like my own. I make sure pets feel calm and comfortable by keeping their environment familiar and stress-free. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. On walks, dogs are always leashed and closely supervised. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions to keep things consistent and stress-free.
About: Have own dogs my whole life. When I got older I cared for other's pets and took up care more often as a way to support myself through college. I am married to someone who shares my love of animals. We often look at pictures of dogs and visit pet stores to get our animal fix. If we could we would have our whole house filled with animals of all types! More recently I have care for family and friends dogs every now and again when needed. I am currently working part from home and part in the office. I have a 18 and 12 year old sons who share my love for animals at home. Under my supervision both boys would be happy to give any puppy or dog in our care the love and attention they need. My hours are generally super flexible and I have weekend availability. I live in half an acre and I have a ginormous fully fenced back yard. I have a male Boston who thinks any and all animals that enter our home is he best friend. I also have 1 female kitty who is just under a year. She loves our Boston, Kip and enjoys playing and hiding from him when she needs her space.

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.

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.
