“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!”
“Susan went above and beyond caring for my cats when I was away! I came back to happy, well fed kitties and a clean home. She sent tons of pictures and videos every visit too. I will definitely be using her again!”
“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 ❤️”

“Once again, Jeremy took amazing care of my Roxy and I couldn't be more happy for how he does it! Jeremy goes above and beyond! I have comfort knowing my girl is taken care of when I am away. I would highly recommend Jeremy!”
“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!”
“Madison was great and went above and beyond during her visits. Our Cat Mocha is doing great and things are in order, we did not have any issues or questions . We will definitely keep her in mind for the upcoming trips/plan, as well as refer her to others. We really appreciate Madison's help. The whole process was very smooth. Thanks Rover and Madison!”
About: I’ve always lived with cats and dogs, so taking care of pets has and always is a part of my everyday life! I have assisted senior animals who needed help to be fed/ medicated/ etc., so no pet is “too much” to petsit regardless of their needs/ medications/ diets/ etc.! I am here to help you and I promise to treat your pet as my own! I am currently back home in ALPHARETTA, GA! Idk how to change my location from Athens but if you’re wondering why it is set there, it is because I recently graduated from the University of Georgia and I used to provide services in the Classic City! Now that I am back home, I am accepting new clients as I start my post grad journey☺️ I am super active, organized, and have so much free time on my hands that could be utilized to help out my community! Pet care doesn’t just “fit” into my routine, it has and always will be apart of it! As I mentioned before, I currently have my two cats with me, and they are apart of my daily routine 24 hours a day! Take care of your pet is no different! I am happy to answer any questions you have about my schedule and I promise to always communicate when I am available and at what times I am! Regardless of if it is my home, or yours, I treat every pet as if they are my own! Animals brings so much joy into peoples lives, and I am so excited to meet your furry friend and get to know their personality, show them affection, and take them for walks! Especially since we are blooming into spring, now is the perfect time for me to have a companion join me on my long walks in the sun OR join your pet at their home and play with them! If there is ever a situation where I am unsure, I do not hesitate to reach out and ask questions to you because open communication is KEY when delivering quality service to you and your pet(s)! At home home- I typically throw the ball to my labs, until they let me know they had enough! Then I bring them inside to get some water and maybeeeee a treat if they were being good! More often than not BOTH my cats and dogs pull on my heart strings so even though the dogs are not allowed on the best… as you can see in my photos, I cannot resist a sweet cuddle! Same for my cats, they are always napping in my room and cuddling with each other!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crabapple
This was my first time using Rover, and I am so glad I found Susan and she is able to help me out with daily drop ins! I am less stressed knowing that she provides great care to my sweet elder pup while I am at work. On short notice, she still made time for a meet and greet before the drop ins began, which was wonderful and made me feel more comfortable with the whole process. Would highly recommend her!
Desiree did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 small dogs! She was on time, spent time with both of them, and made sure everything was done well before she left. She had them for 3 days, visiting 3 times a day, and showed us great pictures of them both doing well. This was our first time using a pet care service and we were pleased with everything and how it was handled. Highly recommend her!
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.
