About: Throughout my teen years, I’ve taken care of many pets; from training my puppies to caring for relatives’ pets. No matter the circumstances, I always have a fun time caring for these pets. I’m on the hunt for a part time job so I’m available all the time to care for pets! What better to do than doing something I love? I have three dogs at home and big yard but as we warm my dogs up to playing with others as part of their puppy training, we’ll keep your pets in your home.
“I’m so glad that I found Morgan! She is wonderful with my dogs, they just love her, she is on time, reliable, and her communication is perfect. Definitely rebooking!”
“Gianna was a super cat-sitter! She was timely and responsive to texts and really seemed to connect well with our kitten, Bubba. Gianna did everything that we asked of her (food, water, litter box, playing toys, sending a picture during her visit) and even left us some things for Bubba and a sweet note for us when we got home. If I could give her more than five stars I would. I hope to ask her back again the next time we need someone to stop in for him! Gianna was a real find!!!”
About: I have five cats at home, each of whom I’ve raised since they were between 0–5 months old, and they truly are my whole world! I’ve also lived with and cared for dogs of all sizes over the years, from tiny Maltese to large Shepskies. In college, I even cared for two adorable hamsters. Whether your pet is big or small, energetic or shy, I’m passionate about providing loving, reliable care and building trust with every furry friend I meet. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own💕 I work as a scientist during the day, 3 days in office and 2 at home. I can fit walks/drop-ins into my lunch breaks at home and after work I can come by to check on or walk your furry loved one! My weekend availability is very open as well. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I know every pet has their own personality and preferences, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine and follow your instructions closely. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, medications, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, will leave everything just as I found it, and will always make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure.
“Kate was amazing with our dogs during our 2-week trip. She provided detailed report cards and a lot of photos each day. She works well with more than one dog! After meeting Kate before our trip, I knew our dogs were in good hands and it kept my anxiety down when we were away from them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“This was our second time hiring Regina to keep our cat company while away on vacation - she goes above and beyond as far as sending updates, plenty of pictures, bringing in our mail and keeping an eye on our house. We recommend her services to anyone looking for cat care and peace of mind!”
About: Hello, I'm Paige and I am new to rover but I have three years of dogsitting experience as well as having a dog of my own. I am looking forward to meeting and caring for your furry friends! I'm currently working part time, so there is plenty of time in my schedule to care for your pups. I am free on weekdays or weekends, whenever you need me. When dogsitting, I make sure to give the dogs daily walks as well as exercise through playing. I always make sure they are getting affection because I know they are missing their parents.
About: I have been caring for animals my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience with cats and dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I currently care for four cats of my own and recently fostered four sibling kittens, providing them with a safe and loving environment while they prepared for their forever homes. Over the years, I have also cared for friends' and family members' dogs, providing walks, companionship, feeding, and attentive care based on their individual routines. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, following specific instructions, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide compassionate, dependable loving care while you're away. I work Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. close to home, which allows me to provide reliable pet care before and after work. I'm also available evenings, weekends, and many holidays. While I don't offer boarding or overnight care in my home, I'm happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and care in your pet's familiar environment. I'll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life, and I make time to ensure every pet receives the attention, affection, and dependable care they deserve. While I don't offer boarding or overnight care in my home, I'm happy to provide drop-in visits and care in your pet's familiar environment.
“Kandyce helped me out last minute! She was very quick with responses and timely on her visits. Both dogs were well taken care of. One of my dogs has some GI issues and can only eat certain food and she handled that with no problem. She also sent photos at each potty break. Would highly recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
About: I have 10 years of experience caring for my own pets along with pets for friends and family. I’m reliable, patient, and truly love animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I am a preschool teacher with a strong love for animals, and I am looking to fill my off-summer hours with pet care. My schedule is flexible during this time, which allows me to provide consistent and reliable care throughout the day and week. I am able to plan my time around feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs to ensure pets are well cared for and comfortable. In my client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get regular walks, playtime, and attention. I also clean up after them, keep their space tidy, and follow any specific instructions for special diets. I focus on making sure pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away!

About: I’m Tyler and I am a freshman in college. I have been walking and sitting dogs for neighbors and family since I was little. I’ve started going to more abroad when I got my car in highschool and since then I’ve been sitting overnight, walking in the day, and much more. I have had many dogs over my life all different sizes and some over 100 pounds so I’ve seen it all and know what it’s like. I’ve walked over hundreds of dogs already and hope your dog can be my next. I’m reprisals, caring, loving, and most of all so compassionate for dogs. Please consider me as your next booking! I am in school currently but anytime after 6:15 I can do walks, drop ins, and overnight stays during the week. For the weekends mainly all day Saturday I can do walks and drop ins but only Sunday mornings from 9-12 I can do walks and drop ins. I can do overnights some Saturdays and Sundays I’d just have to let you know my schedule. I won’t have a home to take care of pets in so I only do walks, drop ins, and overnights in your home since I’m a student in school
About: I've been taking care of dogs, cats, and basically any animal pet you could think of since I was 7 reliable family and I would say. Also I have fostered about five dogs since moving out of my parents house. I love that I can provide a loving, caring, and comfortable environment for any pet. ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a currently stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet in my care. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, or simply providing companionship, I can be consistent and attentive throughout the day.

I’ll carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules (if needed), exercise routines, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I believe in building trust with every animal by being patient, gentle, and allowing them to become comfortable at their own pace. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“We can’t say enough good things about Christina. From our first contact Christina was communicative, honest, polite, prompt, friendly, and caring. Her love for animals is obvious within the first moments of meeting her. She is thorough in getting all the important information - even things we hadn’t considered. She is great with our senior dog and our young puppy. She isn’t afraid to bring up any issues she’s seen our dogs exhibiting. Christina regularly shares photos of our dogs both to the app and maybe a couple extra via text. Her visit notes are detailed. We are thrilled with each interaction we’ve had with Christina and can confidently recommend her to anyone!”
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover who understands that pets are family. As a pet owner myself, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog's personality and needs. What sets me apart is my professional background in education and counseling, which has strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to establish trust and routines. I'm comfortable caring for both puppies and senior dogs, including those who need extra attention, medication reminders, or a slower pace. You can expect dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love, play, and companionship while you're away. I currently work remotely as a disability resource coordinator for student with disabilities. My hours are very flexible daily, allowing amble time to care for, walk, play and spoil your beloved pet. Your pets will have free and open space to roam, relax on the couch, sun on the enclosed and fanned patio, or simply lay out and enjoy being a dog in our home. In your home, your pet will be cared for as you would care for them.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Clayton
I don’t know where to even begin. Julia was absolutely amazing and our two boys just loved her! On the first home visit she came in, hyped up the boys into going outside, and gave them lots of treats. Our dogs are not normally around other people but they are also big babies. I would definitely recommend Julia and we will be booking with her again 😊

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Clayton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
