“Savannah was great! She came by to check in on and walk our puppy, who is very high-energy and can definitely be a handful. She was patient, reliable, and did a wonderful job with her. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our puppy was in good hands. We would absolutely use Savannah again!”

“This was our first time using Rover, we have a 9 week old kitten with a lot of energy and a 2 year old cat. Samantha’s glowing reviews are accurate. We were able to schedule a video call with Samantha for her to meet the girls. She asked all the right questions and has a ton of experience with animals. Our check in cards were the best part, she took up to 22 photos, (framable photos!) and a thorough update on the cats pees, poops, playtime and cuddles/ behaviors. We will ABSOLUTELY book with Samantha again:)”

About: I have several years of dog and house-sitting experience through word-of-mouth referrals, caring for pets during trips ranging from a few days to a week and a half. I strive to find what works for each pet as an individual. I have experience caring for elderly dogs, administering oral medication, and working with multiple pets. I’ve cared for a range of dogs—from picky eaters and nervous, anxious dogs that preferred a consistent schedule and energetic dogs with mischievous streaks. Working with such different dogs has helped me become flexible and responsive to a wide range of temperaments and care requirements. Past clients have repeatedly trusted me with their pets and homes, and many have returned for additional bookings. Through these experiences, I have followed detailed care instructions, monitored pets for changes in behavior, provided excercise and affection, maintained a safe environment, and communicated reliably with owners. This means that when a situation is worrisome, I will err on the side of caution as well as informing you. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away and for you to feel secure your pets are safe and in responsible, good hands. As a college student who comes back home for the breaks, my schedule is relatively wide open. However, I also appreciate still having some time here and there even while on sits to spend with family, should it be possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I always prioritize following any provided instructions and established routines. In this respect, I especially appreciate detailed care notes, as they help me provide the most consistent and personalized care possible. Every pet is different, and I believe clients know their pets best. At the same time, I use good judgment and common-sense safety practices to ensure pets remain safe, healthy, and comfortable while their parents are away. I am patient, attentive, and observant, and I make it a priority to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and needs. Whatever that means, I aim to adapt my care to what will help each pet feel most at ease. I also value staying in contact with pet parents throughout their time away, as much as their availability and preferences allow. Regular updates help provide peace of mind to everyone, and if any questions or unexpected situations arise, I can communicate promptly so clients stay informed and involved in decisions regarding their pet's care. My goal is to create a safe and familiar environment where pets can thrive and clients can feel confident that their pets and homes are being well cared for.

“Briana is truly one of a kind! It’s hard to find someone you can trust completely with your pets, but from the moment we met her, we knew our puppy was in wonderful hands. She is so kind, dependable, and genuinely caring. She treats our pup like he is her own. Knowing he is happy, loved, and well cared for while we’re away gives us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Briana and feel so lucky to have found her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

It was clear from her updates and communication that she genuinely cared about Summer’s well-being. We felt completely at ease knowing Summer was in such good hands. I highly recommend Debdatta to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate caregiver, and we will definitely be using her again!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, lizards, and other reptiles. While I don't have professional pet care experience, I'm the person my friends, family, and neighbors trust whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets while they're away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it's long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, cleaning up after them, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own 💛 I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry (or scaly!) family member, and I'm committed to providing dependable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I currently work part time in the service industry and on my days off I love to be outside and mobile! My job starts at 6 am most days so even on days that I work, I end up having a lot of free time that I would love to fill working with animals 💛 Each pet takes time to get to know and gain trust! I am excited to meet your fur baby and take that special time to understand what makes them feel safe and happy.

About: I have either lived or worked with animals from as young as I can remember. Growing up we had an abundance of different animals such as cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and more. Since being out on my own I have raised two puppies and a kitten and adopted a cat as well. I trained both puppies myself and am also familiar with caring for senior animals as well as giving medications and caring for animals that may have health issues or sensitivities. I volunteered at cat shelters all throughout college and worked in pet stores for multiple years so I come equipped with lot's of knowledge on feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning up after, and caring for pets. I have watched over many friends and family’s pets over the years and I treat all animals with the same love, respect, and care that I give to my own. I have plenty of time and flexibility to help care and play with your pets throughout the week! I have the most availability in the mornings through the afternoons but can be flexible for evenings if needed! Both weekdays and weekends work for me. I am comfortable following your preference on how you like to keep your pet safe in your home. If I see anything concerning I will always communicate this but my main goal is keeping your pet safe and healthy in the ways that you feel most comfortable with.I know every animal may be treated differently and my top priority is to care for them while also following their normal routine as much as possible.

About: I have been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and small rodents of my own and others for most of my life! I’m currently mom to a Great Dane rescue named Paloma and a rabbit rescue named Pluto. My partner and I have done extensive training (Hamilton Dog Training) with Paloma over the last two years to remove all dog reactivity and allow her to be off-leash trained. I also have experience with elderly animals receiving hospice care as they head over the rainbow bridge. I currently work as a part time structural engineer technician from home so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to look after your little buds. My partner, Grant, is a structural engineer who also works from home. We both grew up surrounded by animals and wouldn’t have it any other way! I strongly believe that a tired dog is a happy dog! Long walks are a must for our pups to receive the attention and exercise they need and I truly believe nature is as healing to our furry family as it is to us.

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.
