“I feel as if Doris is a dog whisperer haha. From her intro visit, the dogs immediately loved her! She was able to take such great care of our two dogs and cat. And I appreciated getting twice daily photo updates to let us know our critters were doing well. I will definitely contact her again the next time we go on vacation!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cared for my own for years. From daily walks and playtime to keeping up with feeding and routines, I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved like they’re part of the family. Hi, I’m Mike! I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet. I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and part of the family—whether that’s daily walks, playtime, or sticking to their routine. I’m reliable. Ask for the general routine of the pet what special medication if any applicable and any other specific type of care the owners are requesting
“We are so grateful to Cristine for taking such wonderful care of our dog and cat for 2 weeks. Our dog is very anxious and she warmed up to Cristine so quickly. She took extra time with her to help her feel secure while we were away and sent us tons of photos of them enjoying treats and snuggles. Our pets just loved her!”
“Samantha did an excellent job with my three dogs. They are all 65 lbs, two require pills and the third is a very strong minded (and bodied) dog. She treated them with love and respect. I appreciate how diligent she was with my dogs and how she did not rush in and out. Thank you!!!”
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!
About: I grew up on a farm, so taking care of all types of pets and animals has always been a part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was young and have obtained more skills in my professional career as a veterinary technician. I can do anything from feeding, walking, bathing, administering medications of all kinds, senior care, puppy care, and everything else under the sun! I’m currently taking a break from my professional career as a veterinary technician so I will be at home all day for at least 5 days a week. I have 4 dogs of my own and a 6 year old step daughter half the time that I care for as well. All animals in the home are pet friendly. I have a small area of fenced in yard with 10 acres of open land. The dogs always love a new play mate!
About: As the above headline would suggest, I aim to be much more than a service provider for your pets needs. Yes, I do love animals and am a dog dad myself but my heart is to be a humble servant of the Lord Jesus Christ and make myself available to help with any practical and/or personal matters of life you may have currently. I’m not a religious fanatic and won’t impose my faith on you in any way, shape or form but feel free to ask questions about it! I have pretty wide open availability mostly but I am currently a dialysis patient and receive treatments every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7am to around 11/11:30am. Tuesday evenings I’m usually busy from 6pm to 8/8:30pm. Wednesday evenings busy from 5pm to 8pm. The rest of my days and evenings are open except for Sundays from 9am to 3pm but then available Sunday evenings. Unfortunately, I’m unable to bring pets into my current residence but I obviously abide by the client’s expectations and instructions when coming to their home. As long as directions are clear and legible, I’ll follow them precisely. I am available for house-sitting, if deemed necessary as well.
“Sabrina is a gem. Rocky immediately loved her. She's incredibly sweet and knowledgeable about animals. Clear communication, she asked the right questions during the meet and greet, and we felt completely comfortable with her watching our boy. We will definitely look to her for any future dog sitting needs. 💯 Recommend.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog for about 9 years and have also helped with neighbors pets. I understand how important it is to have trusted care for your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and focus on keeping your pet comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I provide safe, comfortable, and attentive care your pet can trust. I’m typically available Monday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, and happy to coordinate around your schedule to make sure your pet gets the care they need. I make sure pets are safe, well cared for, and happy, following their daily routine and giving regular updates so you know they’re doing well.
“Tom was incredible! Great communication. We needed a last minute sitter and Tom came through in a big way. He was great with check ins and tons of pictures! Our dogs looked very healthy and happy upon our return!!”
About: When I was younger I used to take care of my neighbors dogs, house sit for them and walk their dogs. I've also raised other animals, like ducks, rabbits, reptiles, and fish. People have always called me the animal whisperer, i've rescued animals and returned them back to wildlife lots of times in my life, and i just think animals (ALL PETS) bring me so much joy and peace , I would do anything for just about any animal that lives, to make their life as fulfilled and loved as i can. My duties for caring for any animal would be properly maintaining their feeding and walking schedules. Bathe and brush(if necessary), playtimes as well as training procedures (if applicable) Pet sitting/House sitting. Your pets will be in great hands! Hello, my availability is posted in my calendar, please check to see if the dates you need a sitter are available in my schedule. If so I will be more than happy to watch after your animals! Thank you! I like to maintain schedule, dietary restrictions, exercise, walking and feeding schedules. Any maintenance that comes along with watching after your pets. You let me know what you need, and I can do it.
About: I have been a pet lover all my life. I have taken care of dogs for 10+ years now. Your fur babies will be in the best care possible with me and enjoy a nice nap after all our walks and play time. I currently work from home, therefore, i have open availability in my schedules to help take care of your fur babies at any time of day :) I have an unfenced yard and lawn space that our pups play in. They can be territorial so all bookings will need to be done outside of my home. My schedule is always open
“Amber is awesome!!! She is passionate about animals and did a great job taking care of our baby boy!!! She goes above and beyond to ensure that our dog is well taken care of. From taking him for walks, spending time with him, etc; Amber ensures that he has all he needs and sends tons of pictures and video so you can see the fun he is having. We would highly recommend Amber if you need support with you pets!!!”

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 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.
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 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.
