About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, i’ve had multiple dogs ranging from 5 pounds to 200 they are all sweet baby’s and deserve a little walk with nature. I’m a college student and am looking for a job that i can get some extra money off of and this would be a perfect opportunity since i love and adore animals. I care for my pets with love and affection, constantly letting my little dog to go potty or just go play or i’m playing with my cats all the time so they can get that energy and attention out.
“I never thought I could leave my dogs in the care of a stranger . I have 3 toy Aussies and one has severe separation anxiety. 10 minutes in our meet and greet Colt who does not like strangers begged for Hollys attention and brought a toy he rarely plays with . Holly is such a gentle soul!!! I am blessed to have found her.”
“Ayla-Lynette did an amazing job with my two kitties, one of whom required daily injections and was not easy! Was so grateful that they were in her care, she was wonderful at keeping me updated and sending photos in the lake. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this, she will take wonderful care of your animals. Thank you again Ayla-Lynette!”
“Riley was absolutely fantastic with my two cats! My cats have never had an “outside of the family” sitter before and can be extremely anxious because of this. However, Riley’s care for them made them less anxious and one of my cats, who is very afraid of people she doesn’t know and will hide, actually came out each visit and let Riley pet her multiple times! She also sent updates and photos of my cats, which I really appreciated. Riley is an amazing sitter, so I highly recommend her for all of your pet-sitting needs!”
“Ella was amazing!!! She kept me updated on my little baby’s and listened to all my worry’s about leaving them alone for a few days. She was so sweet and both my cats loved her. I will be recommending her to everyone, and booking with her again 🫶🫶”
About: I have grown up with various types of dogs from a small Schnauzer to a medium sized Collie, all being my best friends and how I spent my leisure time. I am the owner of a Golden Retriever and I treat him like he is my very own child. Animals are my heart and my joy; they make the world a better place and worth while. One summer I had the opportunity to bathe dogs for an animal groomer and it brought me so much joy. It is surprisingly laborious, but the labor did not faze me because the dogs were so cute and gave tons of kisses. One of my fondest memories was when I was blow drying a bashful husky, that did not like the blow dryer, and the groomer caught him giving me kisses; she could not believe he was being so affectionate and told me that he never behaves like that for anyone. It meant so much to me and made me feel really good, because dogs seem to truly know the heart and intentions of others. I have voluntarily watched friends and familes dogs when they have been in need of a sitter and I have also watched a couples dogs for pay. I have recently had three dogs, two medium sized and one large pit bull mix, stay the weekend with me and this is not including my own. I have kept my friends dogs at my house overnight and I have watched families dogs at their own house. I am finishing up my last semester towards Associates in Science and will continue on to a Vet Tech program in the fall. **I just wanted to let every one know that I have a cat, just in case your dog may not be able to be around them.**
“Kayla saved us in a pinch. Sadly, we had to go to a viewing about two hours from butler Wednesday afternoon. We had Kayla come for a half hour visit around 7. We got to have a relaxed dinner and leisurely drive back - not worrying about getting back too late for potty and feeding. We both said what a nice freedom this is. Thanks Kayla!”
“Raye is awesome. She took great care of the dogs and I could tell she really loves dogs. She made sure their needs were met and gave them some extra love and attention. I will definitely recommend and use her services again.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over 15 years. I treat every pet like they're my own and take the time to learn their individual personality, routine, and needs. I'm patient, attentive, and comfortable providing care for pets with different energy levels and personalities- from playful pups who need lots of exercise to senior pets who prefer a little extra TLC. I'm currently available anytime of the day to play with your fur babies! I'm currently available for boarding on the weekdays and weekends. While I'm there, I'll provide plenty pf attention, playtime, walks, meals, potty breaks, and companionship based on your pets individual needs. Communication Is important to me. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, from Great Danes and Mastiffs, to chihuahuas and Teacup poodles. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior with special care requirements, I know how to meet them where they are—with patience, gentleness, and respect. I’m confident handling medications, monitoring health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. And yes, I’m fluent in belly rubs, leash manners, and the art of a good treat toss. My training as a veterinary technician adds another layer of confidence and skill. I’m experienced in administering medications, monitoring subtle health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. Whether your dog needs special care or just a gentle presence while you're away, I offer both professional know-how and genuine affection. Im currently working part time from home, so I will have PLENTY of time to check in on your babies. I’m attuned to their moods, their health, and their quirks—whether it’s a sudden burst of zoomies or a subtle shift in appetite. Throughout the week, I build in time for deep-cleaning, play therapy, and medication routines when needed. I approach each task with intention and honor, recognizing how much trust goes into watching your home and pets. Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.
About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and my passion for canine care began at age 14 when I first learned the fundamentals of training and responsible pet ownership. Since then, I have personally raised two dogs from nine-week-old puppies into adulthood, giving me hands-on experience with developmental needs, safety, and attentive daily care. Animals naturally sense my calm demeanor and feel comfortable around me, allowing me to build instant trust and keep them at ease. In addition to raising my own companions, I regularly help pet parents understand canine behavior and basic training through positive, clear communication that works seamlessly for both dogs and their owners. As a current student, my daily routine is structured to ensure your pets receive reliable, dedicated care without disruption. I have excellent availability early in the morning before classes, typically between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM depending on the day. After classes wrap up, I am fully free for afternoon and evening visits starting after 12:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5:00 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As long as visits fall around these regular class windows, I can seamlessly accommodate walks, feedings, and drop-ins throughout the week. I also have zero issues providing overnight care and weekend coverage, giving your pets consistent attention, company, and love while keeping their routines completely on track. Because I am currently in school, I do not offer pet boarding in my own home. Instead, I specialize entirely in in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits, allowing your pets to stay comfortable, secure, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your personal space with the highest level of respect, care, and cleanliness. My primary focus is making sure all of your pet’s essential needs are met meticulously, from precise feeding schedules and fresh water to maintaining clean living areas and administering medication if required. Beyond the basics, I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and follow any extra instructions to the letter, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and dedicated companionship.
“Hailee was the best! She was very prompt in getting back with me when I requested her to come and set with my two goldendoodles. She drooped in three times a day with our girls for several days and she was always on time. She played, fed, watered and loved them. She also was so good about sending pictures and letting me know how my girls were doing. Everything was very clean when I came back home. I highly recommend her and I will be using her again.”
About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.
About: A little about me! My friends and family call me the animal whisperer, the minute I meet any animal it’s like we form an instant bond of mutual trust. I have grown up surrounded by mainly dogs, cats and snakes. I love playing inside/outside with my pets 24/7. Hiking, running, swimming or exploring/walking, if your babies love to adventure I’m here for it! I rescued and trained to service level both my cat and Belgian Malinois. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets my entire life, trusting me to give their pets a little pet staycation while they’re on vacation. I am from Southern California, I’ve been mainly pet/house sitting and doing drop ins in the Sango area for about a year now. I have a lot of experience with all types of breeds, especially the dominant ones. I have had 5 bully/pitbulls. I also study animal behaviors to better understand and communicate for their wellness. To ease your stress/worries, your babies will be in knowledgeable, loving hands. I can dedicate as much time as you/they need to your babies. I freelance, doing a few different types of jobs but they normally do not overlap or cause me to be away from home/your home for longer than a couple to a few hours. I am a very active person, I do hybrid training everyday that includes street/trail running and weights/calisthenics. I normally do this early in the morning for 1-3 hours. If I’m not with your babies, I’m at my house a couple times throughout the day to care for my babies then I’m back at yours! I care for your pets at your home, I can stay or go as long as you’d like, keep them outside playing or inside- everything is your preference. I’d love to do whatever makes you feel most comfortable. As far as your home, if there’s anything you need me to do please let me know! I will do little things that I see here and there such as, bringing in any packages, cleaning up and taking out trash.

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.
