“Kari was amazing , she was timely and my pup never stopped smiling the whole time she was around! She did everything we requested and made sure my dog felt comfortable with a new face!! I would definitely book her again!”
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

She was prompt and good with communication throughout the entire time that She watched my cat. Thank you, Joanne!”
“Kate was great to work with and helped us feel much more comfortable being away from our cat. She was communicative, friendly, and responsible. Would fully recommend her services to other pet owners.”
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!
“Gianna is wonderful. My pups feel so comfortable with her, she follows whatever info I leave her to make it easier, she spends time with them and leaves me a detailed note to keep me updated on how they are. I am happy to have found her and will continue to book her for my pups!”
“Kandyce was great again. Our Buddy was well taken care of for his potty breaks. Her communication is good and love the updates with pictures. Would definitely recommend and will use her again when needed.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for almost 10 years now. During that time I have gained experience with older dogs, diabetic dogs, puppies and everything in between. I currently own a rescue dog who I have been doing high level obedience with. We participate in dogs sport like rally obedience, fetch, fastCAT, barn hunt, lure coursing and most recently scent work. When I come to take care of your dog I will treat them as if they were my own with lots of love. I want to make you feel comfortable about leaving your dog knowing someone responsible is going to take care of them. I have a high energy dog. His care involves daily walks, and lots of training including scent work, learning new tricks or building up muscle and rear end awareness. My favorite activity is walking and training dogs. I will care for your dog with love and kindness. If you give my specifics of how you like your dog handled I am more than happy to follow that. I understand each dog is different and unique which means that I adjust accordingly.
About: I’ve had my own pup since I was about 9 years old. Bathing, feeding, playing, training and walking was all apart of my responsibilities.

I’m available most days of the week including weekends if service is needed; Availability can be worked upon. I can bring treats and or dog/cat food if needed! If your fur baby needs simple training, I can help with that as well. I’m friendly and patient and have no problem with adapting.
“Regina is absolutely amazing. Our dog Boomer adores her, and it’s clear he feels completely comfortable and happy in her care. She even accepted a last‑minute appointment the day before, which we appreciated so much. She’s reliable, follows every instruction to the letter, and gives him the long, happy walks he loves. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in great hands. We’re so grateful to have someone we can trust in our home when we’re away.”

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 😊

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
