About: I am a big animal lover! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and periodically watched animals for friends and family throughout the years. I have delt with animals with disabilities, old age, medications and puppies. I just love animals and everything that comes with them. My pets are my current job right now! I am working on starting a small business from home so caring for my animals or others animals is my top prority! I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love making friends with new dogs. We are all also big cat lovers! We have a dog house outside if your pet prefers and we take our animals on daily walks and/or car rides.
About: I have dog sat for a handful of people over the years. Some new clients and some faithful returning ones that become family friends. Some have needed medication and lots of walks, some just needed a friend, I love doing anything/everything. I do not currently own any pets and would love to be outside and more active. I would be available to do walks/drop ins around 3:30pm-9pm Monday-Thursday and most times Fridays-Sundays. Dog sitting availability depends on needs and pet schedule but please reach out about anything! I have worked with crates, dog doors, or dogs being inside all day and need walks/potty breaks. I hope we can work something out between us and your loved fur baby.
“Bevin was a delight to speak with and very patient with gaining Chika's trust. This was just a meet and greet for all of us. I'm hoping we'll get to use Bevin's services in the future.”
“Chantelle was so kind and attentive. She was attentive to my cat, Chiari, provided updates, and played with her. I’m so grateful for her help and care. Definitely would recommend booking with her!”
About: I've been taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes since I was kid. I have professional experience with dog and cat boarding, sitting, walking, grooming, daycare, etc. I love animals and cant wait to meet yours. I work from home as a caretaker so my schedule is extremely flexible and there is always someone home to watch any animals we have visiting. I dont have any animals at home at the moment so there's a clean slate for me to focus on any specialized care your pet may need while in my care.
“Brandi was just such an awesome blessing during our trip to western MA! I did write a review at the time (May, 2019), but the internet access was shaky and obviously it didn't go through, but she earned our highest possible recommendation. She was highly professional and intuitive with our very private Irish Wolfhound puppy, Aoife. Aoife had a great time. She didn't seem to notice we were gone until we returned, which was just awesome, as we felt very guilty when we left her in a strange place. I would trust Brandi with any living creature. I know she will be moving on to a rewarding career, but if she's still sitting/walking the next time we're in that area, we will definitely try to book her again!”
About: I may be newer to professional pet sitting, but I bring a full year of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’m patient with puppies as they learn, gentle with seniors who need a slower pace, and comfortable giving oral medications when needed. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood — and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my week — I set aside time every day for walks, play, and check-ins with the pets I look after. I plan my schedule around their needs so I can give them steady attention, whether it’s a morning potty break, an afternoon walk, or evening cuddles. Keeping them safe, happy, and loved is something I enjoy building into my routine I make every effort to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable. In my home: I create a calm space where pets can relax, play, and stick to their usual routine. I provide regular walks or yard time, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of cuddles or playtime based on their personality. I keep an eye on them at all times and make sure they have a cozy spot to rest.
“Amanuel was great! He came on time everyday, and made sure my cat had lots of clean food, water, and a clean box. He offered to play with her too, but she’s just a little shy. The offer was so kind though. I’m so happy I went went him and recommend him to anyone!”
About: I grew up with 5 dogs and have been watching after dogs and cats for the last 15 years for friends and family. I always prioritize fun and walks :) I'm currently working part-time for myself growing my small bakery business. I can easily work around your schedule to be there any day/time of week as needed. I am going on 5 years of full-time vanlife so all overnight visits will be in your home. I will go over every detail of visits with you to ensure your pet(s) are comfortable and are able to stick to their routines.
About: I owned three large dogs from 1978 to 2014. I had an Australian shepherd from 1978 to 1996. A black lab from 1984 to 1999. An aussie from 1997 to 2002. A black lab from 2000 to 2014 and and aussie from 2007 to 2014. I moved from Ohio to Seattle in 2014. I found homes for my dogs when I moved here. I have had 3-5 horses since 1978 and still own one. Very comfortable with both dogs and horses. I am retired so I am very flexible to stay at your house and take care of dogs and feed and clean stalls for the horses. I am adding people to give me references. I have been dog sitting for 50 years. I enjoy house sitting with dogs and nake sure they are loved.

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.
