“Briony was amazing with Cooper and he really enjoyed his time with her! It was my first time leaving him with a new person. She was very patient, communicative, supportive while I was away. She really went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with the care she provided. Cooper had several hot spots that were in different phases of healing. She was very attentive to his care and made sure he got what he needed during every visit. Furthermore, after a power outage, my fridge had a leak. She communicated that to me asap and did what she could to ensure there was no additional damage. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!”
“Saniya was amazing and took perfect care of our cats 😸💕 they are very shy so them coming out to greet here during her time at our home was shows the great energy she has. 100% recommend her!”
“Sean was our first experience hiring someone to look after our girls. He was extremely responsive, kept us updated, and spent time with our babies. One of them consistently had accidents while we were gone but Sean took care of it every single day no problem. He made sure to spend some time with them in the yard and gave them some brushing due to it being shedding season! Since he lives close to us, he would pop by in to check on them in the afternoon. One of our babies started showing some scary symptoms our last night of vacation and Sean cared as if it was one of his own babies. Sean was fantastic and we highly recommend hiring him!”
“We love Christian! He’s reliable, great communication, fast response time and super nice. My boys also loved him and can’t wait to have him back. We will be using him again”
“1000% recommend this sweet lady. She is very accommodating and uncommonly kind. She took very good care of my pet and my house while I was away. Most definitely will be back if needed :)”
“Shannon was AMAZING!! I have cats, bunnies and birds and Shannon handled the whole crew. She constantly kept me updated daily and handled all the 'craziness' that occurred. She went above and beyond to keep the house clean- we were gone for 11 days- so I was expecting the house to be covered with fur and feathers and it wasn't. But more importantly, the animals were all content and happy when we returned home. We just moved to the area and I am so happy I discovered Shannon!”
“Audrianna was amazing dropping in to feed my fur babies while I was out on business for a week. Appreciate your frequent updates and the pictures of my pet while I'm away missing them. Thank you!!”
“Whitney did a great job of taking care of our pup while we were gone! It was my first time leaving my dog home alone and Whitney helped ease any concerns! She was a great communicator throughout the process and always had updates and photos for us. Will use her again in the future!”
“Kristen was fantastic with our two indoor cats and was incredibly supportive of some separation needs we had with the two during this week. Meds, play, and even a few photos of our outdoor cat kept us informed and grateful. Thank you, Kristen!”
“Dazia was respectful of my home and prompt on drop in days. She is not afraid to ask questions if she is unsure and sent very cute pictures of my furbaby.”
About: I have 2 dogs back home so I love to babysit, walk dogs. Dogs tend to love me:)! I have babysat and walked friends pets! I am in college, but I was thinking in between classes I could walk dogs and babysit some days! Tuesday and Thursdays are easiest days! I will play with them, let them out, walk them, and watch them 24/7. And just spend as much time with them, and feed them!
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs and cats, as well as pets for friends and family. I currently have two friendly doodles and a senior cat, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, ages, and needs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates while they’re with me! My work schedule is flexible and varies throughout the week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I do have some full workdays where I may be away for around 8 hours, so your dog should be comfortable being home during a normal workday. When I’m home, my dogs are usually right there with me, and your pup will be treated the same way. I’m available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends depending on my schedule. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly doodles who love having company! Dogs are treated like part of the family in my home and have plenty of indoor and outdoor time. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping and potty routine, and can crate them if that’s what they’re used to. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you know they’re happy and comfortable.

This is my second time booking with Bri and I cannot recommend her enough. My cat really enjoys having her here and best of all, when I return, she is her same happy, playful, loving self. Everything is well attended and left even better than before she arrived. Thank you, Bri!
We were so lucky to find Elizabeth!! My aunt passed away, which left her pets without care. Elizabeth did not hesitate to step in and offer the best care while we searched for new homes for the animals. Kind, responsible, and just outright cool. You're lucky if you get the chance to book with Elizabeth. 5 stars all around!!
Daniel was great! He was very accommodating to my pups needs and went the extra mile for her and I. When my dog refused to go out in wet grass, he made a third trip back to ensure she was comfortable and accident-free overnight. I really appreciated his extra care and highly recommend him!!

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 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 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.
