“Jessica always takes good care of my boys Bennie and Maxx. They are both on meds and she always makes sure they get their dose when needed. She is dependable and my boys look forward to her visits.”
About: I am currently employed as a pet sitter, taking care of various pets while their owners are away at work, or on vacation. Responsible for entering people's homes and ensuring the proper care of their pets. Trusted with providing animals the proper medication for their individual needs. Also providing in home boarding for your convenience! I am pursuing this as a full time gig! I love animals and enjoy being outdoors and bringing smiles to their faces! I know we all have busy schedules, so let me be the one to come and interact with them while you are busy! I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs, two cats that will be staying upstairs and put away for safety of all! Daily photo updates are a promise!
“We could not have asked for a better person to stay at our home and care for our “kids”. Bella and Opie were both so comfortable with Robin from first visit. We received daily pictures and videos of them and could see they were very happy and being taken care of. Not only did Robin care for our pets as her own, she also cared for our home as her own. There were so issues with our AC unit and she handled it, including having a repair technician come in. Cannot recommend her enough and we will 100% be using her again in the future!!”
“Emily cared for our 2 pups over a weekend when we visited family. She is so warm, playful and affectionate - both our dogs bonded with her instantly! She is knowledgeable about pets and has great instincts too. She made sure they were safe on their walks, and kept us updated with plenty of adorable photos and written updates. We are helicopter parents and didn't worry about them b/c she followed their routine and spent so much time with them! We came back to a clean, tidy house and healthy, happy puppers. Emily was wonderful and we would definitely book her again.”
“Julia took great care of our two old lady cats and our apartment while we were away for a couple weeks. It’s always nerve wracking to leave them, but she put us at ease. Would be happy to work with Julia again and recommend her highly.”
About: Over the years, I’ve regularly helped care for my sister’s Rat Terrier and Chihuahuas, from feeding and walking them to giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know their personalities and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and companionship they need. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or their own home, I make sure they’re fed, exercised, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while keeping their space clean and following their owner’s instructions.
About: I am usually always available, I have tons of dog care experience. I am more than willing to go over and above for your dog, and your peace of mind! I am stay at home looking to make some cash so I’m available pretty much all the time I do except some same-day bookings because of my unique schedule, most of the time when I leave the home it’s for very short period of time so even pups with separation anxiety can be happy! Being a pet parent myself I know how hard it can be to find a reliable helper, my biggest goal is to get long term clients and bond with the pets insuring everyone’s comfortability! Although I don’t have a yard I do have multiple leashes/collars and a play park at my disposal! I love walking & podcasting so your dog won’t go without exercise.

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.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Click walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Click maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Click choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
