About: I was previously in a internship program about animals specifically dogs for a whole summer. Picking up after them and feeding them. It was about 28 dogs on the busiest days and the minimum was about 10 so I got to know very different and unique dogs. As of now I am open and available to watch any furry animals like cats or dogs for as long as I am required too. I have a very nice and playful dog myself that loves the company of other animals. She loves making friends and is gentle with smaller animals.

About: I love to see dogs run and play with other dogs, and take them out for a walk so that they stimulate all their senses, because just as we get bored, they too. I like to walk with pets, especially dogs because they transmit their positive energy and eliminate any kind of annoyance in the environment. I have a dog and I like to take care of him a lot when we are in a park or any other place. I am always very attentive to what may or is happening around my pet and me. And obviously respect the space of the pets that are close to mine, as well as the owner. In my case, my dog ​​is very playful and he is not neutered, even so he is very playful. I am very careful that he has his vaccines up to date and that he is healthy. After each walk, when he gets home I clean all his legs, his face, especially his nose (this because he smells everything), his tail and the entire area of ​​his belly, since he is super super fluffy like a bear. I WILL ALWAYS: - Updates on your pet - Photos documenting each activity we are doing. - Experience with separation anxiety, leash-reactivity, and general aggression. - Experience with special needs and senior dogs. - Snacks, rubs, and cuddles always provided. - Patient walker: Your pet leads their experience, I follow and always supervise! FOR EVERYONE’S SAFETY: - For leash-reactive or general aggression, please let me know in advance so that we may execute the safest booking possible. - Meet & Greets before accepting a booking is always available upon request! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am flexible but I need to know at least 2-3 hours in advance if it is the same day :) I prioritize safety by keeping the leash on in open areas to prevent accidents and ensure control. I value trust by respecting both people and other dogs' behavior. I enjoy engaging with dogs through playful activities like running and fetching, while also showing affection through petting, hugs, and expressing love. Additionally, I’m mindful of the environment, likely meaning I’ll clean up after your dog and I’m conscious of their impact on surroundings during play.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was little. My family and friends have always trusted me to take care of their pets such as walking, feeding, bathing, and playing with them. I always take their safety very seriously when I am caring for them because I have a deep love for animals. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies. I'm available weekends and weekdays so I can drop in any day as long as you tell me beforehand. I am able to care for pets in my own home if they are hypoallergenic, however when pet sitting in someone's home, I can create the same environment that the owner creates for their fur baby, making sure their pet is secured and safe and comfortable at all times.

“Chok is the most caring and conscientious cat sitter I’ve ever had. Leaving your pets behind is always stressful, but she immediately put my mind at ease. Melody and Houdini instantly connected with her—they usually take time to warm up to new people, but they absolutely adored her! She was incredibly attentive to their routines, extremely thorough with the care instructions, and treated my home with the utmost respect. It is so clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell from her detailed updates and photos/videos she sent that my cats were in fantastic hands the entire time. ***Chok also administered asthma medicine to one of my cats (an inhaler using Aerotek chamber and mask). If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable sitter who will treat your fur babies like her own, look no further. I am so grateful for her and will definitely be booking her again! Chok is amazing!”

About: I’m an experienced pet parent and a proud cat mom of 6 cats. Caring for multiple cats has helped me develop a strong understanding of different personalities, behaviors, and individual needs. Beyond caring for my own cats, I have provided in-home cat care for friends, including caring for two cats while they were away. I have also gained professional pet-sitting experience through another pet care platform, where I regularly care for an 8-year-old cat for a repeat client who has trusted me as her go-to sitter. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, grooming, medication support when needed, and providing companionship for cats with different temperaments. I understand that every cat has their own routine and personality, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When caring for your pets, I treat them like my own. I will provide thoughtful updates, photos, and attentive care so you can feel confident and relaxed while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a cat mom of 6, I’m used to maintaining consistent feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing daily play and companionship. Outside of caring for my own cats, I set aside dedicated time for pet sitting visits, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up, playtime, and sending updates to owners. I understand that pets feel most comfortable with consistency and routine, so I always make sure they receive reliable and attentive care. I’m able to plan my schedule around pet care needs and provide dependable visits while treating every pet with the same patience and attention I give my own. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I understand that cats especially feel safest in their own environment, so I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and any special needs. Before each visit, I take time to learn about the pet’s personality, habits, favorite activities, and any concerns the owner may have. During visits, I provide attentive care, spend quality time with the pet, keep their space clean, and make sure they receive plenty of patience and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.

About: I've cared for both dogs and cats my whole life-- I've never lived without a pet! I also have experience as a volunteer caretaker through my local animal shelter, and a deep passion for animal welfare and happiness. I work part-time and am a part-time student, so please check my calendar for availability. I have class from 4-9pm Tuesday & Wednesday and my work schedule is typically the day shift on Monday and Thursday. Again, if there are any deviances, I will mark them on the calendar! I'm happy to let your pet set the pace-- if they're a cuddle bug, I'll give them snuggles, and if they need some time to warm up, I'll sit quietly while they get used to me. If your puppy feels the need for speed, I'll take him on a sprightly jog, but if your senior prefers to take the scenic route, we can stop and sniff every tree. I'll listen to your instructions and preferences and theirs.

About: I’ve cared for my cousin’s dog several times, especially when his family was away. He has separation anxiety, so I’ve learned how to support him through stressful moments with patience and consistency, calmly. This experience helped me understand how important emotional care is for pets, not just physical needs. I’ve also taken the initiative to self-learn dog training techniques and have attended a few classes on positive reinforcement training. I’ve even practiced basic training with my cousin’s dog to help reinforce good habits. Growing up, I also cared for a bunny, which taught me responsibility and attention to detail, skills that translate well to dog care, too. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood. It’s summer break for me, so my schedule is flexible and open throughout the week. I have plenty of time each day to dedicate to pet care, whether dog walking, sitting, or just spending quality time with your pet. I’m also working on a few personal hobbies during my free time, and I thought pet care would be the perfect way to earn money while doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love being around animals and giving them the care and attention they deserve! Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or my own space, I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, like feeding schedules, walking routines, or favorite toys, so they feel secure and cared for while you're away. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure to keep everything clean and consistent for your pet. I pay close attention to doors, gates, and anything that could be a safety concern. If I’m in charge of walking, I always use secure leashes and stay alert to our surroundings to keep your pet safe and happy. Trust is important to me, and I want pet parents to feel completely at ease. I’m happy to send updates, photos, or follow any instructions you leave to ensure your pet feels right at home, even when you're not!

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was 16. I had 2 cats and a dog from the age of 4. I had 3 dogs as a child and teenager. I take care of my parents 10 year old Pomeranian dog, Buddy. He is my favourite and I have so much fun playing with him and taking him for walks. I regularly take care of my friends' cats and dogs of all ages. I don't own any pets but I hope to some day. I'm very patient, kind and caring. I have a lot of patience with kittens, puppies and older dogs and cats. I like to meet in person or a video call before working with a client to ensure it's the right fit. I work from home and have a lot of free time to walk, feed & play with dogs and cats. I love pet sitting! I always look forward to taking care of pets. I live in a large 1 bedroom apartment with lots of room for a pet to walk around, play and rest. My apartment is safe, on the 2nd floor with no outdoor space but I'm close to a park. I am happy to go to the clients home too.

About: Every dog has their own personality, and I believe the best care starts with understanding that. Some dogs want to play all day, some need patience and time to trust you, and others are happiest just having someone calmly by their side. I always take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and comfortable. My experience with animals started helping rescue dogs in South America, including dogs that were scared, shy, or came from difficult situations. It taught me patience and how important it is to let an animal trust you at their own pace. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, independent, or a little nervous with new people, I’ll care for them based on what they need and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care has always been a big part of my daily routine. I care for my own pets every day, so I’m very used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime and making sure they get the attention they need. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I understand how important consistency is, so I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including their usual walk times, feeding schedule and any specific instructions you have. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible even when you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet and your home in someone else’s care. I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow the routine and instructions you give me because I want your pet to feel as comfortable and normal as possible while you’re away. I pay close attention to feeding times, walks, medications if needed, playtime and the little things that are specific to your pet. I’m also respectful of your home and will always leave it the way I found it. I’m happy to send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and being well cared for. I care for every pet with the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own.

Sabrina was wonderful, she was so sweet and gentle to my three cats. She knew how to interact with them and pet them but she also knew when to back off if any of my cats were more timid. She also cleaned up after my cats litter robot perfectly and kept my home clean as well as double checking if the oven/ stove was off!

Booked Charlie for a last minute 1 hour drop-in visit, due to unexpected/urgent appointments that took me out for the day. My pup is a recently adopted rescue with some reactivity and other idiosyncrasies, and I wasn’t comfortable leaving her with an unknown boarder or daycare. I was upfront about Lala’s issues-in-progress and Charlie was gracious, accommodating and communicative. During the hour-long visit, he sent plenty of photos and met my pup where she was at. Visit went smoothly and I was able to focus on my rather stressful day without having to worry too much about her. Thanks again.

Marcela did a wonderful job walking Beau and following instructions as he's still a puppy and training to walk. There is another puppy she walks in the apartment, but although we offered that she could walk Beau together with that puppy, she stated that she preferred to give each dog individual attention, which we were surpised by and appreciated. She took a lot of photos and videos, and we'd gladly ask Marcela to walk Beau again!

Lillybeth did drop-in visits with my two cats, for 6 days, while I was on vacation. She is an excellent caregiver- patient, responsive, and not afraid to ask questions when there was an issue. She provided me with detailed updates and photos daily, and when I needed to add an extra visit at the last minute, she was willing and able to accommodate my request. This was my second booking with Lillybeth, and I would not hesitate to book her again!

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.

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.
