“Teddy was super excited to have Audrey let him out in the yard, feed him lunch, and play with him at lunch time. Audrey was just as excited and provided a professional, fun, friendly, and much needed service for our 7 year old Westie at our house. I will be using Audrey again.”
“Marie is very sweet and communicative. My fur babies love when she comes to see them. I can tell that she enjoys her time with them as well. I am grateful and happy that I found someone as sweet as Marie to watch over my cats while I am away for extended periods of time.”
“the most understanding + patient dog sitter we’ve ever encountered. she’s very careful + treats our puppy as though he belongs to her. not only does she go above + beyond with her service, but also goes above + beyond with her attention to detail when it comes to her reports while he’s under her care.”
About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.
About: They always asked me to take care of pets, it's something I like because animals make me happy I always try to do my best to make them feel comfortable. I'm going to start studying again at the university but I'll always try to have time to take care of your pets and make them happy At the moment I only have one cat, I like to create a comfortable environment for him, it's easy for me to adapt to the needs of each pet.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and honestly wouldn’t have it any other way. Now that my daughter has moved out (and took the family dogs with her), my home feels way too quiet. I’m an empty nester with lots of love, time, and patience to give to your pup. I live in a calm, quiet neighborhood and have a large, secure backyard with plenty of space to roam, sniff, and relax—perfect for dogs who love being outdoors but also enjoy a cozy place to rest. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, medications if needed, baths, and lots of affection. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home while you’re away. I’m retired and home most of the day, so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m a homebody who truly enjoys spending time with animals. The only time I regularly leave the house is briefly to pick up my granddaughter from daycare. If a dog enjoys being out and about, I’m happy to include them in walks, outings, or dog-friendly errands—whether that’s a neighborhood stroll, a park visit, or a café stop. Of course, I always follow each owner’s preferences and only take dogs out if they’re comfortable and approved to do so. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood in the Terranova area of Chula Vista with very little traffic. My home has a large, secure backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and relax. I supervise all outdoor time and carefully follow each dog’s routine, leash rules, and care instructions. Whether your dog prefers staying close to home or enjoys safe, dog-friendly outings, my goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where they feel secure, included, and truly at home.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years and have experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles. I’ve cared for two Yorkies, an Australian Shepherd, and a crested gecko, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, energy levels, and care needs. Friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently very flexible and have plenty of time to give pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pet stays on their normal routine and receives lots of love, playtime, and care. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a friendly small Yorkie at home who is well socialized. I always introduce pets carefully and make sure they have a safe, calm environment. I follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same love and attention I’d give my own.
“Rebooked with Andrea because she is truly the best! She was so sweet and attentive to my cat while I was away. I will always pick her as long as she is available! I highly recommend her.”
“Emma was very friendly, provided great photos and updates, and easy to work with, even when the care instructions were a little complicated. I would recommend booking with her.”
“Brandee is so caring towards my puppy. She always makes sure that she is well taken care of and gives her so much attention. Brandee genuinely cares about dogs and I always know she's in great hands when she comes to check on my puppy. Definitely reccomend her to everyone! ”
“I’m so happy I found Priscilla! She went above and beyond what I asked of her and I couldn’t be any happier. I know my dogs were in wonderful hands with her and I had no doubts. Plus she made my day by blowing up my phone with pictures of my babies. Thank you so much Priscilla!(:”
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of experience since 11 years old when my mother would petsit the neighbor's dogs. I've cared for dogs at many stages of life, from newborn puppies to sweet 10 year old senior pups! I understand each pet has their own unique needs, and I will always commit to providing attentive, compassionate care for each and every one. It's what a good pup deserves! Out of highschool and looking to spend more time doing something I enjoy while supporting my goals! Free every week with plenty of time for playing and caring for your fur babies ♡ I have a fenced front yard and 3 dogs in the house. Whether you want your pup to make new friends, be comfortable in their crate, or seperated from the dogs, whatever is best for them, I'll do with no problem! Food, playtime, walks, and cuddles will be provided to all pups whether at my home or yours. Just tell me what you need and I'll deliver!
“Elizabeth is amazing! We loved looking at her updates and pictures. We could tell our boys were so loved and well taken care of while we were away. She even helped with a hot spot issue on one of our dogs, just so helpful and because of Elizabeth we were able to truly relax on our trip! We will definitely book her again!!”
About: Ever since I was young, my love for animals has been unwavering, and that passion continues to define me as an adult. I've always been the go-to person among my family and friends whenever they needed a pet sitter or extra assistance. It wasn't until recently, when a friend referred me to Rover, that I decided to officially extend my help beyond my immediate circle. I’m available to care for pets Monday through Sunday with enough advance notice to plan around my schedule and personal responsibilities. I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet’s care fits comfortably into both your schedule and mine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my priority. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and household rules.
“Tori was so caring to my little guy. She updated me on his potty breaks as well as played fetch with him and took pictures! Will be using her services in the future :)”
“Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.”
About: Besides caring for my dogs I have a lot of experience. I’ve fostered old dogs until they happily passed. I’ve administered medication. I’m also a medical assistant so injections are not scary. I work Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits during evenings and on weekends. Boarding may also be available depending on the dates and whether your pet is comfortable around my resident dogs. I’ll always confirm that I can fully accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs before accepting a booking. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions while maintaining a clean and secure environment. I have friendly resident dogs, and introductions will be supervised to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’ll also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Chula Vista
Shannon did amazing. She handled my sifting pellet wood litter so well with it being her first time, gave my baby ample amounts of attention and love. Communication was frequent alongside cute pictures of my sweetie. Wish I could book you again. Have fun up north 🖤
Gao was an amazing fit for my need(s) for BearBear. Reading her profile was the main reason I selected her. She was very knowledgeable, passionate, and handled BearBear with the care he needed; above and beyond (medicine doses, nail trim, etc.). Her communication, availability and empathy was exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Anjelica was great! I booked her last minute and she was super accommodating, setting up a meet and great quickly. She was very communicative, followed all guidelines and provided updates with lots of photos. I felt comfortable leaving my cat under her care while I was away and was able to enjoy my time knowing all was being taken care of back home. Thanks again! 🐈⬛

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.
