“Emily was awesome! I was super nervous because I had never had someone watch my dog before but she took great care of my high energy dog while I was gone. Will definitely schedule again sometime!”
About: Hey, I'm Nate, and I've always had animals in my life. I've owned seven dogs, several cats, and even some smaller pets over the years. I've also spent a good amount of time dog-sitting as well as caring for horses, so I'm comfortable looking after a variety of animals. I really enjoy getting to know each animal and its personality. I understand that every dog has its own needs, and I'm available for walking, washing, drop-in visits, and house-sitting. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd want someone to give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I'm currently self employed, so my schedule is very flexible, and I'm happy to work with pet owners to find times that work for both of us. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I take that responsibility seriously. I'll follow your instructions, respect your home, and make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I'm happy to keep you updated with messages and photos while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing how things are going.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to maintain their routine and comfort. I focus on providing safe, reliable care with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and secure while giving you peace of mind. I’m currently between jobs and so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to caring for your dog. I’d like to do morning walks before it gets too warm out for your dog and myself. I can check in on your dog throughout the day. I’m available to come take care of your dog in their environment. Whether that’s popping in at home to check in and offer bathroom break or going for a walk in your neighborhood. Offering a sense of familiarity and comfort.
About: I grew up with a black Labrador for 10 years and helped out with feeding him, playing with him, and walking him. Over the past year, I have boarded a cute pug on several occasions. This experience inspired me to join Rover. I absolutely love dogs and am passionate about caring for them and looking after them in the best possible way! I’m currently an elite runner who trains 2-3 hours daily, with a flexible schedule. I am excited to look after dogs and show them a good time! I have a spacious, unfenced yard in the countryside. I do not have a dog of my own or any pets. I am reliable regarding following instructions pertaining to the dog’s needs.
About: I've cared for senior dogs as well as puppies. All are personal animals, but, I believe that's an advantage. Being familiar with animals on a personal level has made me more empathetic and gained the ability to really connect with animal's. Wonderfully! I can care for a pet multiple times a week. My current schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work with you on hours! I would prefer to care for animals in their own environment. I understand some pets feel more secure in a familiar environment. I want to provide the most enjoyable experience for the owner as well as the pet.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have always had a passion for helping them feel happy, safe, and cared for. I've worked at a dog daycare that practices fear-free, positive-reinforcement-based care, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all personalities, needs, and energy levels. I’ve also worked at an animal shelter, where I cared for dogs with a wide variety of behavioral and physical needs, further strengthening my ability to meet each dog where they are and provide patient, compassionate care. I’m trained in dog first aid and am also a proud owner of a large dog, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your best friend. My goal is to provide every dog with the patience, attention, enrichment, and support they deserve while respecting their individual boundaries and comfort levels. Whether your dog is energetic, nervous, elderly, needs extra support, or simply loves some good company, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work flexible hours so I can work with you to build a schedule that works for you and your pets. I’m focused on setting up a system that works best for everyone. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment while keeping their normal schedule as consistent as possible. I’m attentive to feeding routines, exercise, play, enrichment, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship and affection. I prioritize positive reinforcement, patience, and respecting each dog’s boundaries and comfort level. My goal is always for them to feel secure, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I also make sure to provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Shealea and I have over two years combined experience working with dogs. I was a handler as well as a team leader at one of Eugene's premier dog boarding facilities where I gained a plethora of knowledge and experience in all things canine related! My approach is to treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. "Dog's are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." I am a SAHM so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs! Please message me if you have any pet care needs outside of my scheduled availability. :) I treat each pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I am attentive, knowledgeable and understand the importance having a solid line of communication with pet parents.
“It was my first time leaving my 2 cats. Cats were fed separately, played with and taken care of. When I came home the house was in as good as shape as when I left it. Instructions were followed (and I had lots of instructions!). My cats were both clearly very happy. Jill was responsive and communicative of both good news and problems. Jill was really flexible: we were able to come to an arrangement that didn't fit nicely into the Rover app's scheduling. I would trust Jill to take care of my cats again, and I would recommend her to others as well.”
About: I have owned dogs since my childhood. In my adult life I have owned a few dogs and know how to train and care for dogs. I am self-employed and have been in business since 1999. I have a flexible schedule. My availability can be arrange to accommodate the needs of your pet/pets. My motto is to care for your pet(s) as I would my own. I prefer that pet parents let me know what their pets routines are and I will adhere to those wishes and more.
“Everything went great with Trina's drop in visits to care for my 2 cats. I wasn't sure how they would do with strangers but they seem to have warmed up to her very quickly. I've already booked Trina again for a longer period next month.”

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
