“Kelly & Tyler are amazing people and pet sitters! Terrific communication, caring, and very responsible. Our second time and will be back again next year.”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about Melissa and all she did to take care of my 3 cats while I was out of the country for over 2 weeks. Not only did she send daily photos, she sent very thorough Rover cards which really helped comfort me in knowing my kitties were being well cared for. She went above and beyond and is the only sitter I have ever had in about 7 years that has been able to coax my particularly scared kitty with a neurological disorder out- he wanted pets and attention from her which was just remarkable. I will absolutely work with Melissa again and highly recommend anyone to her! All the stars!”
“Our two dogs were in good hands for the weekend with Rachel and her daughter. Good communication and lots of pictures. Thank you both for taking such good care of them!”
“This was our first time leaving our two dogs alone in the new house for several days. Joshua did a terrific job of taking care of them, keeping them company and making them feel safe - and keeping us updated so we didn't worry too much. He has a wonderful way with dogs!”
“Christy gave me peace of mind, she was so reliable, competent, and caring with my cat. He required special medication and handling due to his illness, and she took care of him beautifully. She took the time to give him love and attention also. Sent me pictures every day. I will happily use her again.”
“Dena is great! One of our dogs ended up on a couple medications due to a leg injury and Dena was more than happy to give them to her twice a day. She left detailed messages on how the dogs were doing after each visit. She also included some fun pictures of them. We could tell they were being well taken care of while we were gone. Thank you, Dena!”
“Layla was amazing! I think my cat might like her more than me, now. She took great care of my lil cat & made me feel at ease with leaving her at home. Layla sent such sweet messages with the cute pictures she took. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!! It was great having a vacation without having to worry about whether my pet was okay 🙌🏼”
“Lisa was amazing! She made leaving our cats and chickens so much less stressful. I highly recommend here and would definitely use her again. She had excellent care and communication.”
“Just amazing. Katie was willing to come in to help us with our pup on very short notice, took great care of the dog and sent us a dozen+ glamor shots to show how much fun they had. Thank you!”
“Jackie went above and beyond my expectations. She had a flexible schedule and always spent a little extra time during her drop-in visits making sure my cat was taken care of. Would highly recommend her taking care of anyone’s animal. 10/10 stars”
About: For over 5 years, I have lived in a home with five large dogs, gaining extensive experience in caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Growing up on a farm where my parents rescued various animals, I developed a deep understanding of animal care. I am skilled in feeding routines, administering medications, giving baths, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and brushing coats. I treat every pet I care for as a member of my own family, recognizing their unique personalities and ensuring their individual needs are fully met. Whatever your pet requires, I provide it with confidence, compassion, and dedication. I care for your pets as if they were part of my own family. I understand that each pet has unique personalities and specific needs, and I genuinely appreciate those differences. Whatever your pet requires, I am confident in my ability to provide attentive, personalized care. This is my only job currently making me more available then most people! I know how important your pets are, I will treat every dog in my care with kindness, patience, and respect. While staying in my home, they will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment. I will follow their usual feeding and care routine, closely monitor their well-being, and communicate regularly with their owner so they can feel confident their dog is happy and well cared for.
“Stephanie was amazing and our corgi loved her. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior as well as very kind and affectionate toward our boy. She took photos every day to show what they did on her visits. Highly recommended.”
About: My father taught me about life by giving me pets since I was able to walk. Animals are a gift and should be treated like they are family. I work full time, but I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets. Having a small farm myself, my kids, who are older, pitch in to give animals all the care and love they need! I have a fenced in property and enclosed kennels for exercise. I also enjoy taking them on walks and playing ball with them outside. Any specific requests will try to be honored…
“Shachel was amazing at taking care of my foster kittens while I was traveling. She is so kind and sent daily updates with photos. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies!😻”
About: What sets me apart is that I have cared for pets my entire life and genuinely treat every animal as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I am experienced with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who require extra attention, gentle care, and medication reminders when needed. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have had pets my entire life. I work Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM, so I am available before and after work for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. Evenings and weekends allow me to spend additional quality time with pets and ensure they stay comfortable and happy. I enjoy maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions provided by the owner and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I also respect my clients' homes by keeping them clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. Safety and trust are very important to me. I pay close attention to each pet's behavior, ensure doors and gates are secure, and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

Layla was amazing! I think my cat might like her more than me, now. She took great care of my lil cat & made me feel at ease with leaving her at home. Layla sent such sweet messages with the cute pictures she took. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!! It was great having a vacation without having to worry about whether my pet was okay 🙌🏼
Laura was wonderful to work with. It's evident that she is well versed in animal care. She was gentle and kind with my pets. She was great at communicating and overall on it. We felt at ease traveling knowing our home and cat were in good hands. Based in our experience with Laura, I highly recommend her for pet or house sitting.
I am so thankful Christy was available to watch my Frankie Poo last week. She put me at ease, we first scheduled a house visit to get acquainted and from there it was an easy choice to proceed with her services. She is so passionate about animals, and she really loved both of our pets as much as we do. Thank you for coming over this last week, and spending time with my lil’ Frankie Frank. You’re truly a treasure!
Emilyanne was wonderful to work with. She took great care of our 2 cats, 28 chickens and 1 goose. Her communication was great and she sent multiple pictures/videos each day. She went above and beyond with cleaning and spending time interacting with the cats. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone.
Jeanette did an excellent job and took great care of my kitty--seeing she got lots of petting, brushing and loves. That's important for Pandora as she is a very people oriented little girl. Every thing was clean and neat and Jeannette even put out some bird seed without being asked. We will definitely have her back.

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 Coeur d'Alene 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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% can help with daily exercise
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.
