“Absolutely incredible with following directions with training. Super willing to walk her pup in a rather boring area for 30 minutes so I could have a designated distraction during my training session for Tia. I am so beyond grateful for her help.”
“Giselle is are now go to sitter! She is extremely good at following my crazy helicopter dog mom instructions😂 she is very professional and did everything we needed of her perfect and went above our expectations!! Our German shepherd is a little shy and also a ball of energy once warmed up and he loves her and we are so thankful for that because he can have a hard to warming up to people. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“Our girl would never whine or balk Any time we say that it's time for a walk, But for Lettie there's truly nothing as fun As strolling with Amanda, her number one! Lettie never wants her walk to be over When it's with her bestie Amanda from Rover, Come rain, wild heat, or all the bunnies along the way Amanda always makes out Lettie's day. There's only certainty, not a whiff of a "maybe" You won't regret having Amanda watch your fur baby!”
“Gabrielle was great! She was available for me last minute. She kept me updated about the dogs and sent me photos that gave me a reassurance that they were in good hands! Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, caring nature and experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’ve dog and house sat for my mom’s friend and other families multiple times, giving them peace of mind while they are away. I treat every furry loved one like family and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. My schedule is very flexible since I currently only am in two classes and work 2-5pm everyday. This gives me plenty of availability during the day for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays. I also have plenty of breaks throughout my daily schedule, or walk-ins or daily walks. I always make sure each dog feels secure and comfortable, whether they’re used to crates or prefer open space. Your furry loved one’s routine and comfort will always come first.
About: New to pet sitting, but not new to pet care! I treat every animal like family, and understand the love, patience, and responsibility it takes. :) I am currently working part-time! I am available on certain days throughout the week to do visits, walks, or daycare. I even can on some weekends! I have both a fenced and unfenced yard! I also have 3 siblings (6 and older) who love, enjoy, and have fun playing with all animals too! :)
About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds, I have 5 pets of my own 2 dogs & 3cats!! My dogs are both big babies lol! I’m great with dogs of all ages, I have experience with basic puppy training, ( sit, stay, potty training, lay down) Also great with senior dogs on medication or dogs with restrictions. I was at a doggie daycare center for a year working with all kinds of breeds, ages, sizes. I work from home so have ALL of the time to cuddle or throw the ball for your babies while you’re away, they’ll get all of the exercise they need on our walks throughout the day. Here for all of your pets emotional needs! I totally understand how scary the storms can be or the fireworks depending on the time of year and am full prepared to comfort your pet in any way he/ she may need.
“Both of them did a very good job with my Irish Setter (Ruby). Even went out of their way for a meet and greet to make both ruby and i more comfortable with the situation. Would highly recommend them for your pets needs!!”

About: I have been in the animal care taking field for about 5 years now. I went to school to get my vet tech degree as well as working with rescues for the last 3 years.

We also have three separate rooms inside set up with kennels and toys! Our separate kennel rooms ensure the safety of everyone's fur babies! We also have staff on the premises 7 days a week, 24 hours a day so your fur babies will never be left unattended.
About: I recently lost my own dog and would love some time with your pet to fulfill the need for pet companionship. I love how excited animals get when you arrive. They are truly dependent upon us as their caretaker and I would love to take care of your pet. I work full time and my children keep me very busy. But I am looking to be a little more independent when I don't have my children with me. I am happy to customize your pet's routine to what they are used to doing. My dog of 16 years was very spoiled and well taken care of. I also love playing ball with pets. I would treat your pet the same way that I treat my own.
“Madie is the best! She’s taken care of our cats for over a year now. She’s excellent with the cats, gives us lots of updates, and leaves the house looking clean and well-kept. We’re very glad to have someone we can trust with our cats!”

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.
