Hi, After a client pays Rover for my services does Rover take out taxes and social security from what I make before paying me?
You are considered an independent contractor, so you are responsible for all your taxes. Look at the IRS publication for Schedule C, which you will file to report your Rover earnings. There are lots of deductions you can take as an independent contractor - mileage to and from sitting assignments, supplies (if used only for your business), advertising, etc.
Here is the information about taxes:

However, Rover doesn't automatically send you a 1099. I believe you have to meet a certain threshold for earnings before one is required from Rover.
No, unfortunately not, so you will have to set aside some money for taxes when that time comes around. They will provide you with a 1099 form for tax purposes, though, so you will know exactly how much you made and need to pay.
