“Amanda was amazing. She followed instructions and my dogs were well taking care of. I loved the pics while I was on vacation and I felt assured that everything would be fine when I returned. It's not often you find someone who has a professional character that you can depend on. Will definitely be reaching out to Amanda in the future.”

“Latasha looked after our kitty (Lazare) and house for a week in July. She was very professional and courteous. She took the time to write down instructions on our meet and greet. Lazare loved her! I appreciated her communication and photos and she also took good care of the house and plants. I wholeheartedly recommend Latasha.”

“I’m very happy with the care she provided for my dogs. She did a wonderful job and was very responsible and reliable throughout the entire time I was away. When I came home, my dogs were happy, calm, and well taken care of, which gave me so much peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I felt very comfortable having her care for them. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her take care of my dogs again in the future. Thank you so much”

About: I've worked in dog daycare, as a dog bather, walker, and sitter. I'm comfortable meeting dogs where they are at and learning how to do right by each pup My main job is working within a pet salon, so I plan to do Rover on my short days and/or days off. Typically, I ask for 24 hours ahead for booking. Although, I am willing to work with you because life happens. Let me know of any needs your pet may have. I've been trained in canine first aide and I will do whatever is needed to make my visit safe and happy

About: Hi there! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have been around cats/dogs my whole life, from puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats! I currently have a dog and a puppy of my own. I am a school speech therapist who is off work for the summer. I would love to make some new furry friends and to help ease your dog mom/dad guilt while you’re vacationing or at work. I will treat your babies as my own, whether it’s giving them snuggles while you’re away, taking your furry friends for a walk or just stopping by to say hello! I understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies. I value open communication and will send you updates with pictures while you are away or busy! If you are interested or have any questions please reach out to me. I’d love to set up a meet and greet :) I am on summer break from work so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to my daily schedule. I am a night owl so I have availability during the night as well. I have a lot of pet experience and would love to provide long walks and visits with your pet while you’re at work or have plans!

“Mae is the bomb! I think my animals really like them, and I definitely appreciate their support. They have been caring for my babies for going on 3 weeks, 4 days a week and it’s a godsend for my busy schedule. They are super bubbly and sweet, keep on top of communication, and follow instructions to a T. My neighbors see them all the time and always tell me how much they like Mae and how friendly they are. Plus, they take really good pictures. Highly recommend.”

About: My experience with animals comes from caring for pets throughout my life, including my own dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with the everyday responsibilities that come with pet care, such as feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, maintaining routines, and providing companionship. I’ve also helped care for kittens from birth, which gave me hands-on experience with young animals and taught me the importance of patience, cleanliness, observation, and consistency. I understand that every pet is different, and I make an effort to learn each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs rather than treating every animal the same. Besides my taking care of my own pets my time is free I’m currently unemployed just a full time pet mom and wouldn’t mind taking care of other pets like my own I Have family that helps me take care of my pets at home if needed I also make sure my pets have everything they need when I leave according to how long I will be gone so no need to bring them with me

About: I have been taking care of sweet, precious pups since I was 7 years old when my mom surprised me and my brother with a basset hound puppy after school. Her name was Roxanne. A couple years later, we rescued a 6-year-old basset hound, Brandi, and a few years later, we rescued a 1-year-old beagle mix, Misty, and adopted a basset hound puppy, Willow, who had just been born on a farm near our house. We treasured our sweet babies, cooking for them every day - hard-boiled eggs for breakfast and meat and veggies for dinner. And they lived long, happy lives. Brandi, Misty, and Willow all made it to about 15 years old! I just moved from Colorado to start my PhD in Public Health at WashU, and I can't wait to pick back up with dog sitting again! In Colorado, I was the honorary dog sitter at my church. One couple even flew me out to California a few times to continue caring for their sweet pup after they moved! Between my own dogs and others' dogs, I've taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors who need lots of support. I am a PhD student at WashU Bursky School of Public Health. This semester, I have a class on the Danforth campus on Tuesdays from 9am to 12pm, Wednesdays from 12pm-1pm, and Thursdays from 1pm-4pm. My research is remote. So, I have lots of flexibility to make sure your pups get their potty breaks and play time and walk time, even on days that I have class. And house sitting would work super well :) I am offering house sitting, check-ins, and walks. If I am house sitting, I will always stay the night to make sure your pets are safe and well taken care of. I will keep the outer doors locked and make sure I am able to hear your pets if they need me. I am also happy to sleep in the same room with them if that is your preference. I will make sure to follow whatever schedule your pets need, e.g., eating, medicine, walking. As far as check-ins and walks, I will make sure to respect whatever rules you have for the house (e.g., shoes off, doors locked). I'm also happy to give your dogs a bath when they need it!

“Claire was wonderful with our puppy Vinny. Vinny has been struggling a lot with separation anxiety and was had Claire come to watch him while we were out of the house for a few hours. She was sure to keep Vinny comfortable and cater to his needs (which can be difficult with a needy puppy). I would book Claire with 100% confidence and look forward to working with her again.”

About: I've taken care of and loved on dogs ever since I was a young child. We constantly had dogs in the house and many of my responsibilities would be to take care of them. My family relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe them. We have had a range of dog sizes from a Yorkshire Terrier to a Golden Retriever. For the past five years, I have also fostered dogs. Their activity levels and their physical capabilities would range as well. Pet care fits well in my daily and weekly schedules. Over the summer, I have much more free time. I love to go to parks to walk around and enjoy the outdoors. I would love to explore them with your dogs. I enjoy pets and I love to get to know their unique personalities. I establish a consistent daily routine for feeding, exercising, and grooming the pets. This includes providing fresh water, feeding them their prescribed diet, taking them for walks or playtime, and attending to their grooming needs such as brushing or bathing. I ensure that the home or designated area is secure, with no escape routes or dangerous objects within the pet's reach.

About: My love for pets run deep & I have such a soft spot for them. Pets love me, cling to me & become comfortable with me quick. I’ve sitted for family, friends & clients on several occasions. I make sure pets are cared for, looked out for, feel safe, special & shown love during my visit. I’ve also had well taken care of animals of my own since a kid so I’m real familiar with different kind of animals. I’ve cared for many different breeds and ages of animals over the years. I currently work during the night hours so my availability during the day is pretty much open. During the week, I can care for pets between the hours of 9AM-3PM and on weekends between the hours of 8AM-8PM. I keep pets safe by making sure that their outside time is supervised. I make sure the environment is safe and clear of any hazards or dangerous things.

“This was my first time using a pet sitter and it couldn’t have gone any better. Danny and Jennifer were wonderful! They’re very communicative and let me know exactly what was going on with my older dog and sent lots of pictures. It really set my mind at ease knowing she was being so well cared for. 10/10 would highly recommend them.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Cool Valley

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.
