“Samantha did an awesome job watching our pups! They adored her and we felt so comfortable with her. She was always on time and let us know how things were going with each check-in. We will definitely request her as often as possible and would recommend her services to anyone. Great job!”
About: Hello, my name is Kim! I am a former vet assistant, and current wildlife biologist with extended experience caring for critters of all kinds. I have worked in vet hospitals, kennels, as well as private homes caring for both cats, and dogs. I have extensive experience administering daily medications both oral, subdermal, and injectables like insulin I pride myself in making the process as stress free as possible which means treats, and pets. I'm also experienced in walking dogs of all shapes, sizes, and activity levels so no need to worry about you pup not getting enough exercise! I'm more then happy to take them out for a long hike with plenty of photo updates for you! I am currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of you precious family members weather it be walking and exercising you dogs. Or entertaining your tiny feline overlord, preparing a feast for you reptilian regent, partying with your parrot I'm prepared for it all. With dogs I am more the happy to take them out on hikes as well as out things to places like private dogs parks to let them get all the sniffing and fetching out of their system. Before any pet sitting occurs I'd love to sit down and chat with you about your pet kids and what needs it is you would like for me to fulfill while you are gone to help keep everything as stress free as possible for both you and your pet. Along with more special needs if your pets need them like medication administration and the time frame of when it need to be administered, or things such as diet restrictions. If there are multiple pets in the household how feeding times go if pets are ok with being fed together or need to be separated or observed during feeding times.
“Lauren did a great job with our cat. She kept us updated daily. He was happy when we arrived home and the litter box was clean. This was a great first experience using Rover.”
“Leesi and Arya loved Leah and Zoe. We needed them last min and thankfully they were able to come help out! They were well taken care of and we will definitely use them again!”
“Prana is the best! She is so sweet and gave me the best updates during her visits with lots of pictures. She also took a good amount of time playing with my two year old cat! It seems like he ended up getting used to her as well! I will book with her in the future! Thank you so much! 💗”
About: I've always loved taking in animals and taking care of them whether they were my own or not. I have been pet sitting for about 4 years now, and I volunteered at an animal clinic in Athens, GA for 6 months. At the clinic I frequently bathed, walked, feed, and took care of many different dogs and cats. I currently only work a couple days out of the month and also complete college online, so my schedule gives me open and flexible availability! Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are all prioritized when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs such as feeding schedules, medications, or behavioral preferences.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had a huge love for animals! I’ve dog sat for several different families and love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing outside, or just giving them lots of love and attention! I also had the opportunity to foster a blind and deaf dog, which taught me a lot about patient responsibility and caring for dogs with unique needs, I live a healthy, active lifestyle and genuinely enjoy. Making sure every dog feels happy comfortable and loved while their owners are away! I am a college student at the University of Georgia and have a very relaxed class schedule! I am home most of the time throughout the days and weekends. I treat every pet and home like it’s my own! Making sure to pay close attention to every detail and treating every animal and home with love and care!
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life living at home and have always had friends and cousins with cats as well. I have been pet sitter for dogs and cats for several of my neighbors. I am used to walking two dogs so I can handle a lot! I love animals so much and being able to still be around them while being away from home is a wonderful opportunity. I am currently a student at the University of Georgia but I am free most weekends and after 11 am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I love animals and have great energy for walks and drop ins! I love to exercise and play with pets as needed. I am devoted and caring towards all needs.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I understand that each pup has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your dog like my own—with plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and regular photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is flexible and centered around your pets. I'm available throughout the week & weekends to give your fur babies plenty of love, attention, playtime, and dependable care whenever they need me! I care for every pet as if they were my own while carefully following your instructions and maintaining their normal routine! I prioritize safety by securing doors, monitoring food and water, while providing plenty of attention. I'll also respect your home and send regular photo updates so you can feel confident that your babies are safe, happy and loved!
About: I've got multiple years of experience handling a highly anxious dog that can be dog selective during high stress situations. I was the one primarily training my family's two dogs, as well as the one taking them out on as many walks as I was able. I have multiple years worth of experience with senior dogs that had arthritis and who needed to have their food prepped especially for easier eating. I'm currently a student at the University of Georgia and currently looking into part time summer positions, however my schedule is very flexible with daily check-ins and overnight stays during both the week and weekend are very doable. During check-ins, outside of ensuring food and water are available, I would make sure to spend time playing and hanging out with any dog and if I have time to take them on a walk I will. For overnights, I would do the same thing with the only difference being the amount of time I'd be able to spend with the dog.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up in a home full of both cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and having pets of my own has taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to give them the extra love and attention they deserve. I recently said goodbye to my 13-year-old Labrador Retriever, my best friend, but not long after, I rescued a scrawny feral kitten who is now absolutely thriving and living his best life. I also worked as a veterinary technician assistant for a year, where I gained hands-on experience supporting veterinarians and learning how to properly care for animals of all ages and needs. This experience taught me how to be attentive, detail-oriented, and confident in handling a variety of situations. Whether it’s keeping up with routines, providing playtime and enrichment, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I treat every pet like my own. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Alongside my commitment to Rover, I also attend school at the University of Georgia as a part-time student which requires a few hours of on-campus attendance. That said, I maintain a flexible schedule throughout the week and am commonly available on weekends. I’m more than happy to accommodate your routine and ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and exercise they deserve when you’re away! While I don’t have a large yard, my neighborhood offers plenty of safe walking trails and a nearby community dog park, giving your pet great opportunities to stay active, happy, and well-exercised.
About: All my life I have grown up with cats and had one pet dog growing up. I have a dog now and 4 cats at home, so I am an animal lover at heart. I absolutely love dogs and kittens. Im a student and work at a retail store in the mornings, so I am available to sit, and walk in the afternoons and evenings. I have a two story house for them to roam, and a front yard to play in. I live in a gated community for us to go on walks.
About: With 3 years of hands on pet care experience, I specialize in creating a calm and positive environment for every pet. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets with special routines. I treat every animal as if they were my own (: Being a stay at home mom allows me to give pets the full attention they need throughout the day. I keep a consistent routine and lots of affection. Your pet will always have company and care while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their usual routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I also make sure your home stays tidy and your pets are happy and well loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve helped petsit for my friends before and love taking care of dogs, cats, and even other animals like lizards and gerbils. I have worked for a veterinary clinic and have experiences with small and large dogs and love them all. I am currently a student so I have classes every day but am free after 6PM most days of the week and 12PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have time between classes to come home and care for animals and can definitely work them into my routine. If a pet is brought into my home, I have a fenced yard and a large space indoors for them to roam around. They have access to my room and the main living space. In your home, I will ensure to take care of your pets how you prefer and to keep myself and them out of rooms they are not allowed in.
“Megan did a great job with our three pups! We think we’ve found our Angel for the times when we have to be away! Reports and photos were a great comfort to know our babies are well and happy when we are away!”
About: Taking care of any type of dog fills me with joy, I give them a lot of love, trying to give back as much love as they give me. I am able to train them (basic commands), I fill them with love, I bathe them, and if the owners authorize me, we’ll have lots of play time in the park. My attention is 100% to them, and I am very very happy anytime I take care of a puppy Honestly I can at any time and moment. You just have to notify in advance please, that allows me to organize my schedule accordingly :) Most of the time I take care of the puppies in my house. I do have a dog of my own, but he is extremely friendly to other dogs and he is always ready to play (small breed)
About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs

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 .
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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
