“Great experience! We booked a quick drop-in visit before an upcoming house sit, and everything went wonderfully. She was punctual, friendly, and took the time to get to know our pets and their routines. We felt very comfortable with her and are looking forward to having her stay with our pets while we’re away. Highly recommend!”
“Brittany was great with my girls. She was willing to listen and was great at communicating. I felt super comfortable with Brittany taking care of my girls. She sent great pictures that help a worrying dog mom.”
“Thank you for taking care of our baby and for making schedule changes on such short notice. Everything was smooth and luna would love to have you visit her in the near future.”
About: I've been around dogs since I was born. They bring me a special kind of love that no other pet can and I just can't live without them. I currently have a dog of my own and I wanted to share my experience and overall love of dogs. I am ready to give your dog the love, attention, belly rubs, exercise and care they need while you're away on vacation, work or any occasion you will need some help. I will send lots of photos to make you feel comfortable that your dog is in good hands! Whether it's curling up on the sofa during a rainy day and snuggling, or going on a long walk on a brisk fall day, I am ready to have fun with your dog and provide the best care. I am a stay at home mom right now and have a lot of time to dedicate to dog walking or pet sitting. I am flexible with your needs and schedules. We have a yard at our house but also a very warm and inviting home with animal lovers alike. I will make sure your pet is well loved and safe in any condition.
“Jazmin did a great job! She seemed to genuinely care for our cat, Cleo, even though it was her first time watching her. She did Cleo’s routine, played with her, and gave her attention. Cleo can be a picky and talkative senior cat, and Jazmin was dedicated to providing good care.”
“Samantha was very good with our lab Jake! She showed up to each visit in a timely manner. Pictures of Jake and good communication was appreciated. I would not hesitate to use Samantha again; the weekend went great!”
“Thank you, Stephanie! We were so happy with our first time and she could not have made it easier. What wonderful communication! Callie was so content when we returned . We know she appreciated her visit.. No doubt we will ask her again to care for our cat! 5 stars!! Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was wonderful with my dogs. He made me feel very comfortable by sending me great shots of the pups and by being super communicative. My dogs were very happy when I got home. Thank you Tyler!!”

About: I've been taking care of my rescue dog Elliot for over 6 year now. Recently I've started volunteering at the local humane society, getting to walk and play with some of the dogs as well as the cats. I recently moved back to New Jersey to hep out my parents with some medical issues, so I am currently available to look after your pets full time! I always like to be as slow and gebtle as possible to let the pets get comfortable with approaching me first. My dog was very anxious when I first adopted home at the rescue so I understand the importance of letting your pet feel comfortable and keeping them from being overwhelmed.
About: I have always had a love for animals. Growing up, I always had pets, mostly dogs and cats but also rodents, snakes, and frogs. I have also volunteered for 2 animal shelters in the past and still actively volunteer at one with walking dogs. I am currently in school and working part time but somehow still have plenty of free time! I love helping out people especially when it comes to caring for their pets when they cannot, whether that be at work or on vacation. I will always keep any animals on leashes or in the house. I will keep the same principles as my own dogs and will always keep them safe and keep their boundaries granted.
About: Hi! I'm Danielle! I have been an animal lover my whole life! I grew up around dogs and recently had to put my kitty cat, Gray, down. I am 36 years old, and currently live in Egg Harbor Township. I work weekdays for Atlantic County, so my nights are always free! Your family member would be my main concern! They would get whatever they need and be the center of attention! I love being outdoors, so if he/she does too, we'll be outside as much as possible! I am a photographer on the side, so expect lots of pictures both while you're away and when you get back! I find that it is helpful to send Mom/Dad daily updates to keep your mind at ease.
About: I've been dog walking and pet sitting for over 10 years now. I absolutely love to hang out with your pets! Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me to take care of their pets in every way. I have plenty of reviews and references to provide. I am currently working part time, but I have a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and weekends for drop ins and dog walking. :) Though, I do not offer in home pet sitting, I am 100% capable to provide the love and attention your pets need in your own home. I have had dogs, cats, reptiles, and many other pets in my 30 years of living. I am comfortable in any situation and have worked with plenty of different attitudes our pets show us. Good and bad! I no longer offer overnight visits, but I offer drop ins and short term visits.
About: I have worked with animals at a boarding facility and then transferred to two veterinary hospital as a technician assistant and training tech. I also own my own dog named Titan who is 9 years old and a cat named Mami who is around 3. I’m pretty well trained with aggressive pets and even messy one who tend to potty leak because of old age! I’m extremely loving with every pets and love to give them as much photo ops as I can during our play dates to update the parent :) I’m currently in school full time but attend them mostly online. On Tuesday I go from 2-4:30pm and am free for the rest of the week. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, so I’m familiar with monitoring pet behavior, recognizing signs of stress or illness, and safely handling animals. In my home and my client’s home, I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I also follow any instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, medication, crate routines, or special care. As a pet owner myself with both a dog and a cat, I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention.

All of my time will be devoted to your pups. My job is to make sure your pups have the best vaca at my location! I have two very friendly Labrador retrievers. If your dog is friendly then they will have lot of fun! If your dog is not then I do have the resources to make sure they don’t see each other. If your dogs needs to be crated I do have that option. I live on a farm so I have many acres of space for play time . I do not have a fenced In yard so they will be leashed for their safety unless it’s fine by you. Whatever standard you have for your pup, I can meet it.

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.
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.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
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.
