“Talia was very accommodating to our requests even though some of them were last minute. She is very thoughtful and sweet. Our pets seemed to have warmed up after the initial meet up. She treated Kuma and Kitty as her own. We’ll definitely hire her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Julia 😊☀️ For as long as I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by dogs. Growing up, I had all kinds—from dachshunds and pit bulls to Australian Shepherds and lovable mutts—and I’ve fallen in love with each and every one. I’ve previously worked at a veterinary hospital as well as a pet boarding facility, gaining hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m now a stay-at-home mom to two beautiful, animal-loving girls who may occasionally join me. I truly believe dogs are best friends and should be treated as such. You can trust that I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I’m at home every day with my two daughters so I have a wide open schedule. I took a 3 year break from rover to raise my babies and now I’m looking to get back to dog walking! I have a lot of availability and love to be outdoors- rain or shine. I live on a 6 acre farm that has some areas fenced and lots of room for my 2 dogs to run and explore. I love to let any dogs that I watch get out some energy by running and getting to sniff & explore everything in sight.
“A true star! Taryn was able to come and look after my 4 large breed dogs on last minute notice. She followed all my instructions perfectly and from the pictures you can really see how much my dogs loved her and happy they were. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Jessica was a great pet sitter for our 2 cats! She did a great job administering medication to our cat, who typically hates it and hides. She communicated well and was very reliable! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Michael was incredibly helpful and accommodating to my cat. We just recently lost our other cat and Michael took extra care to make sure everything went smoothly. He took lots of pictures too! I highly recommend him and I will be rebooking for future trips.”
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned a dog my entire life and have cared for my rabbit for over four years, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, patient, and caring looking after your pets while you are away. I recently graduated college and am currently searching for a full-time job, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am available most days for pet care and can work around your pet’s routine. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I follow their normal routine, give them attention, take them on walks, and always make sure they are secure before I leave.
About: I've grown up around cats, dogs, and guinea pigs my entire life. I've watched the neighbors and multiple friends pets many of time. I have also worked with horses and done barn work a good majority of my life. I am a wildlife major at the University of Maryland and do a lot of work with all sorts of animals and can promise I am equipped to work with all types of pet personalities! I work 10 am-4 pmMondays through Thursdays so I am available before in the morning and all afternoon and evening. Fridays - Sunday I am available most of the day, with an occasional restaurant dinner shift from 4pm-10:30 pm, with which I am still very flexible and can help out during the day and after work. As an animal lover with experience caring for both pets and other animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection while maintaining their usual routine. I follow all owner instructions carefully, monitor pets for any signs of illness or discomfort, and keep their environment safe, clean, and secure. I also provide regular updates to owners and closely follow any special instructions regarding diet, behavior, or medical needs.
“Melissa was punctual and detail-oriented. She looked after Max and Kashimo for over a week with care and thoughtfulness. When we take another trip, Melissa will be our first choice.”
About: I have had a dog of every age at some point in my life and they brought me so much joy. I no longer have pets of my own but I would love the chance to care for yours. I am not currently in school so I will have plenty of time to give your pets (or pets) all the love and attention needed. I have a small fenced yard if the service will be done in my home, and will follow the pet parents routine if the service is at your home.
“Zaynah is wonderful! Enzo loved her and really took to her, she did so well with him. She kept us updated and showed up on time every day. Will def be using Zaynah in the future and I recommend her 100%!!!”
About: As a homeschooling mom, I’m home most of the day, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I have a fenced yard and love spending time outdoors, giving dogs lots of fresh air and playtime. I am happy to stick to your pet’s schedule! As a photographer, I also love sending cute photo updates so you can see how much fun your pet is having while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so pets get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long. Dogs enjoy regular walks in a safe, sidewalk-filled neighborhood along with playtime and a comfortable, relaxed home environment.
“Heather was a last minute fill in for a travel conflict that popped up. She responded quickly and willingly accepted looking after our pups. Very pleased with her timely response and professionalism.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and previously worked in a doggy daycare, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m experienced with dog walking, safe leash handling, feeding routines, medication administration, and recognizing signs that a dog may not be feeling well. I’m especially comfortable with large and high-energy dogs and always use a patient, gentle approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or extra attention, I’ll treat them like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine and is something I genuinely enjoy. During the week, I’m available all day, which makes dog walks and drop-in visits a great fit. Spending time with animals is something I find both fulfilling and rewarding, and I love being able to provide pets with attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each pet’s body language and personality, whether they love attention or prefer their space. I also make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of exercise and enrichment, and lots of love. Regular updates and photos are always provided so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Jodie is wonderful!! From her initial pet meet-and-greet, to her check-ins while you’re gone, and her follow through after you return- everything is perfect! Thank you, Jodie, for going out of your way to make my fur child so happy while I’m gone! Jodie deserves more than 5 stars!”
About: I grew up with dogs and currently have 3, all ranging in age (3, 6, and 11) I know how to administer oral and ear medication if needed as well I can stop by in the late morning to late evening and hangout with your fur baby for a few hours during the week and during the weekend I can stay the whole weekend if needed to watch your pooch I can take your fur baby on walks if you don't have a fenced yard, or I could run around in the back if you do! Letting the dog get to know me is important for both their safety and mine so I'll ease into the playing until they're comfortable

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Crofton
Rachel was amazing! This was our first experience with Rover and leaving our senior cat for a longer amount of time and Rachel made us feel comfortable from the start. She was very communicative throughout our trip, sending pictures and updates everytime she visited. She gave our cat pills, wet food, cleaned the litter box, and made her feel loved and cared for. She treated our cat as if she was her own. We are very happy with our experience with Rachel!
Julia did a fantastic job watching my kitties. This was our second time booking with her, and once again she did a wonderful job caring for our kitties. She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We look forward to booking with her again in the future!
Talia was very accommodating to our requests even though some of them were last minute. She is very thoughtful and sweet. Our pets seemed to have warmed up after the initial meet up. She treated Kuma and Kitty as her own. We’ll definitely hire her again in the future.
Heather was outstanding watching our two dogs and cat while we were away for 2 weeks. She is reliable, communicates clearly, and is very comfortable handling multiple pets. During our trip, one of our dogs had an unexpected medical issue, and Heather handled everything start to finish. She recognized something wasn’t right, notified us and with our ok took him to the vet, kept us informed the whole time, and took care of the treatment he needed to get better. Her experience working in a veterinary setting really showed, and while we felt completely comfortable trusting her to make the right decisions, she also made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything in great shape. Heather is truly extraordinary and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
