“Elizabeth was amazing. She was able to come drop in on two of our dogs while we dealt with having to leave for TX for a funeral. It was the 3rd funeral within a month my family was dealing with. Elizabeth was able to come meet the dogs beforehand and they loved her. Very professional and communicative.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals as long as I can remember and I enjoy it immensely. I use to raise and show Boxers and Dobermans. After that I started fostering for a number of different rescues so I have a lot of experience with different breeds and situations. I also helped with training so the dogs were more adoptable. I have had different sizes of dogs from a Lhasa Apso to Great Danes. I have also had horses, goats, cows, pigs ( inside and outside)and chickens. Lastly I have a Veterinarian Technician certification. I am currently working only a few hours and days so I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. I’m available weekends and during the week. I can adapt my schedule for you and your pet’s needs and provide the love, attention and care that your pets deserve when you are away.

About: I have raised many kids and many dogs over the years and I’d love to care for your sweet dogs- much love will be provided For the summer, I am free pretty much all the time and I can sit in any of the surrounding towns around south Mississippi :) When school starts I can still board or sit your pet as long as they are OK during the workday as I am a teacher. I have many years experience with dogs starting as a small girl. I’m a nurturer by nature and will be the most attentive person for your pet.

About: I have always had pets of my own my entire life. I am also the go to dog walker, kitty sitter, and fish feeder in my neighborhood. With my medical skills ( with specific instruction from you) I can administer pills and medications as needed. I am highly responsible and will treat your fur babies with much love and follow your routines to keep them happy. I am happy to take them for many walks and play as much ball as they would like:) As a homeowner and pet owner myself. I can appreciate also that leaving your pets in the care of a stranger can be nerve wracking. I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give mine. Since I’m retired, I have the flexibility and availability to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, cuddles or simply having someone nearby. I will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family in my home. I have a large fenced-in yard for safe playtime, they are welcome to my entire home—no being confined to a kennel unless that’s what they are used to and prefer. They will always be treated like one of my own 🐾 ❤️

About: I have had dogs most of my life. I had my Lola 14 years. She was my travel buddy and my best friend. We swam in the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Mediterranean. I have no problem with breed, I have been around many breeds and have love for all of them. I play music 2-3 nights per week and work from home, so I can do lots of potty breaks and walks throughout the day. Also, able to give medications throughout the day. I have had well trained dogs and love working with them. I will take good care of your puppies and rub your older dogs hips. 😊 I work weekend nights playing music. I do voiceover work from home. I wake up early I have a very open schedule and am available anytime. We have three cats where I live. I play with them and they wait outside my door every morning. They love me because I’m allergic. 😃 I like breaking up the day, so we will all have lots of walks and play time. I am detail oriented and will follow your instructions while loving your fur babies like my own.

About: To me, our pets are like family. They deserve to have the best care available since they are dependent on us to provide for them. I enjoy spending time with animals and will follow their routines so they feel comfortable and safe. I am a detail-oriented person — I will make sure your pets are cared for according to your directions, with a lot of cuddles sprinkled in (if they are snugglers). I am a freelance writer, semi-retired, so I have a lot of time on my hands to devote to animals in my care. I enjoy playing fetch or tug-of-war or providing whatever other stimulation your pet needs. For those who prefer to be alone or sleep all day, I'll respect their space and keep watch from a distance. I try to follow the routines of the pet parents, so the pets have some consistency while their family is away. That's also why I prefer to stay in the home, so they are in a place they already know and feel comfortable with. I feed at the designated times and am vigilant about potty breaks or cleaning litter boxes, taking walks or whatever else the pet does in the course of a typical day. I don't give table food or snacks to pets, and I will handle any type of emergency per your instructions. I love to take pictures and videos of your pets throughout the day and will send them to you, so you know your babies are doing great. I don't mind running errands or collecting the mail and other small tasks that may be needed while you are away.

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m a proud dog owner myself and have experience with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication reminders, and giving pets the attention and affection they deserve. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I work a consistent schedule and have a reliable routine, which helps me provide dependable care. I’m available for pet visits, walks, and check-ins while making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal like they are my own and take time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. Whether caring for pets in your home or providing visits, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive experience for both pets and their owners.

About: Hello, my name is Jordan. I am in the military and here as a student until April or May of 2027. I have taken care of my family’s dog for about 3 years by walking him, taking him outside, and playing with him. I can do it in the morning because I wake up by 5:00 on most days and don’t usually use by lunch break. So I can stop by during lunch and after work. Since my family’s dog is a medium I would say that if needed i could crate most dogs. I also have no problem going outside and playing with them due to my dog also being very energetic.

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.
