“Desiree was absolutely wonderful with my dog while I was out of town. She was reliable, caring, and made sure my dog was well taken care of the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and my dog was happy and comfortable when I returned home. I highly recommend Desiree to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Avery was great. Our cats were comfortable around her, even the shy one who tends to avoid new people. Avery was attentive and responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had. I hope that Avery is available the next time we need to be out of town.”
“This is our second time using Susan when we went out of town and she did a phenomenal job taking care of our fur kids!! She is great about sending photos, keeping me updated, and even doing extra things like bringing in packages to make sure our home was taken care of while we were not there! Thank you for taking good care of my babies!!!”
“Irene always takes such wonderful care of my 2 labs. Having one senior dog and one that can be a bit feisty - she handled them both with no issues. Made me feel so at ease while we were away. She is so trusting and kind! Would highly recommend Irene!”
“Unity was absolutely amazing with our pets! We have two dogs and two cats across different life stages, and with different medical needs, and personalities. Unity was fantastic with all of them, taking the time to get to know and spoil each one 😊 We got the best updates and pictures every visit, and it was easy to see how much consideration and care Unity put into watching our pets. They were so well taken care of and loved on, it's like they got their own stay-cation while we were away! :) We can't recommend Unity enough, best pet sitter we've ever had ❤️”
“Our kitties love Hayley! She’s prompt, professional, and very sweet. This is the second time she’s cared for our 2 cats and we will continue to use her! She goes above and beyond!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience with taking care of pets! I’m experienced in pet sitting, housesitting, and everything in-between! I’ve taken care of pets of all ages, from puppies and kittens to seniors. I’m currently working part-time so I am able to be with your pet almost all day, keeping them company while you’re gone! I would also be able to give frequent walks and potty breaks, if needed. If your pet enjoys walks, I would love to take them on an adventure, and if not, I love relaxing at home too! I have experience with crate-trained dogs as well, if needed. My number one priority is making sure your pet is safe and relaxed while you’re away.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have been a proud cat owner for the past year and a half, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every pet. I know that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work full-time, but I make pet care a priority! I'm available before and after work, can stop by during my lunch break for visits or walks when needed, and have much more flexibility on weekends. I'll always do my best to accommodate your pet's schedule and keep their routine consistent. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to keep them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and have a clean, safe environment. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean and tidy, and I understand how important a clean space is for their comfort and well-being. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own.
“Lizette was amazing! This was our first time having someone new watch our cats while out of town. Lizette was fantastic at asking all the right questions to make sure she was up on the routine. She loved on them, snuggled them and made sure they were well cared for! So happy to have Lizette as a contact to love and care for our girls when we are out of town :) Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a dog who was part of my family, and I had the joy of caring for him from the age of 2 until he was 16. That experience taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I often look after my friends’ and family’s dogs. They always have a great time, and their owners have been happy with the care and attention I provide. If your dog takes medication, has allergies, or has any special routines, please let me know. I understand how important those details are, and I’ll make sure to follow your instructions carefully. For however long we’re together, I’ll do my best to be more than just a sitter—I want to be your dog’s friend, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you come home. 🐶💛 Since I’m currently taking a break from work, I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my time to caring for your dog. I’m available on weekdays between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, and I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Every dog is different, so I always follow the owner’s routine and instructions as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. If your dog takes medication, has allergies, or has any special needs, I’ll carefully follow your instructions because I know how important those details are. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your home and keep everything clean and tidy. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved—as if they were spending time with a trusted friend.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! I walk my sweet golden every day and have a history of professional dog care/walking. I give especially good hose baths and I’m great with my furminator vacuum :) I work from home with flexible hours. I am available all days of the week! Early in the morning or late into the evening, your pet has a friend in me. I have a fenced yard and a sweet golden of my own to keep your pet company! There’s a wonderful protected ~3 mile loop around my neighborhood for walks and I have a nice big open back car for easy and safe transportation.
About: I am new to Rover but I was a foster for a shelter in Florida for 5 years, I have had many different types of dogs and cats. I love animals and would have a lot more if I could! I stay at home all day and I am available to care for your pet anytime. I love being around animals weather it’s playing ball or just walking. I live on 3.5 acre and have a fenced yard. I even have a fence in front yard. I like to use leashes for my little dog when I go outside due to coyotes. My dogs are in my house and can roam anywhere.
About: Hi! I’m Jess, a lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m active, reliable, and will care for your dog like my own. With a flexible part-time schedule, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Whether your dog stays with me or I care for them in your home, they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I’ll follow your dog’s routine, provide updates and photos, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crabapple
As always, Maggie was amazing while we were away. She is a gem! She kept us posted every check-in and kept our minds at ease while we were a state away. My extra shy cat, Reach, even came out for treats, pets and the brush :) This is the third time she has watched our kitties and she is THE BEST! I am always so relieved when she accepts our request for pet sitting! She takes great care of our babies!
Nikki was absolutely the best possible choice. She was attentive to my pets, sent pictures during every visit, and I came home to find my pets well-cared for, fed, watered, and happy. I recommend Nikki without reservations. She is a trusted pet-sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again for my future trips.
This was mostly a meet and greet but Susane was prompt and patient meeting my dogs and playing with them. My dogs take time to warm up to strangers and seemed to get comfortable with her pretty quickly. She genuinely seems to love dogs and I’m looking forward to booking her again.

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.
