“Isabella came on short notice and she is such a gem! She set up a meet and greet and i knew she was going to be great with my Dedra which is a rescue and has a hard time meeting new people. Isabella was always on time and kept me updated the whole time. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have been caring for them since I was very young. Having always lived with dogs, I’m deeply familiar with their routines, personalities, and needs at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in Army flight school, which means I’m away during the day but have dedicated time in the mornings and evenings to spend with your dog. I’m able to provide walks, feeding, playtime, and attention before and after my training day. If needed, I may also be able to step away during lunch for a quick walk or check-in. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I don’t currently own any dogs, so your pet will get my full attention, and I carefully follow your instructions to keep routines consistent. While my home doesn’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is done on leash, so walks are always supervised and safe. I’m comfortable using a crate if needed and can easily crate your dog according to your preferences. I focus on creating a calm, secure environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at home.
About: I’ve grown up with both big and small dogs. Neighbors and family friends have always trusted me to dog or cat sit. I also wouldn’t mind taking your dog for a run when requested. Currently waiting to start school in November, so I am free everyday weekday roughly after 9AM when I get done working out for the day. I would be honored to care for your pet with the utmost respect and care. I know I wouldn’t want someone carelessly taking care of my pet. I’d rather bore you with questions then mess anything up!
About: Hello! My name is Samantha, and I grew up on a 10 acre farm surrounded by animals of all kinds. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would give my own. As a Veterinary Technician with 12 years of experience caring for animals, including working in emergency and intensive care, I have the knowledge and experience to provide attentive, compassionate care. I am also certified in animal CPR. I welcome animals of all breeds, sizes, and species, including those with special needs, disabilities, or behavioral challenges. From dogs and cats to reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, and more, I am comfortable caring for a wide variety of animals. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I will carefully follow your instructions, respect your household rules, and ensure your pet receives the individualized attention they deserve. I take great pride in being dependable, responsible, and dedicated to providing the highest standard of care.I understand that your pets are family, and I am honored by the trust it takes to let someone care for them. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me! I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your beloved animal companions! I am a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of opportunities to provide care for your pets. I can accommodate a variety of pet-care needs, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, medication administration, and overnight boarding. I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, and I will do my best to work around your pet’s individual schedule and needs. My goal is to ensure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I will follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, and respect all household rules. I am happy to arrange a meet and greet before the booking so we can get acquainted and you can feel comfortable leaving your pet in my care. I am experienced with animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including those with medical needs, disabilities, or behavioral challenges. I will always provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet feels secure and cared for. I will also have my cellphone on me 24/7 and you’re more than welcome to text anytime to check in! ☺️
About: For over 30 years, I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals in both professional and personal settings. I’ve worked as a groomer, grooming manager, and salon owner, handling dogs of every size, temperament, and ability. My background also includes behavior handling, training, senior‑pet support, and administering medications, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs or unique routines. I’ve trained dogs since childhood using both the Koehler method and operant conditioning, giving me a calm, confident approach that helps animals feel secure. I’ve also spent years volunteering in feral cat rescue, including trapping, transport, and pre‑surgery prep for TNR programs. That experience taught me how to read subtle feline body language, reduce stress, and create a safe environment for even the most cautious cats. Along the way, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, pigs, horses, skinny guinea pigs, chickens and lizards — and today I share my life with a Xoloitzcuintli who keeps me on my toes. Safety is always my first priority. I’m certified in canine CPR and first aid, and I previously worked as a trained EMT, which gives me a steady, prepared mindset in any situation. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, or somewhere in between, I provide calm, reliable care that keeps their routine intact and their stress low. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and understood while you’re away. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day — it is my day. I start every morning with my chickens’ “breakfast meeting” and my Xolo’s very serious job of supervising everything I do. Three nights a week, I stay with a breeder’s pack of seventeen dogs, so juggling routines, personalities, and the occasional diva moment is second nature to me. Because animals are already woven into my everyday life, adding your pets feels like inviting another friend into the mix. Whether I’m popping in for drop‑ins or doing an overnight when your pet needs extra reassurance, they slide right into a routine that’s already built around calm, reliable, happy animal care. Caring for pets in your home is basically my favorite kind of pet‑sleepover — even when I’m not actually sleeping over. Most of the time I pop in for visits that keep your pets’ routine steady, their mood happy, and their world exactly the way they like it. I follow your instructions to the letter, from “this bowl only” feeding quirks to the sacred afternoon zoomies and the one toy they’ve decided is the center of the universe. Seniors, puppies, shy guys, and full‑blown drama queens all get calm, experienced care. And if your pet thrives with someone staying overnight, that’s absolutely an option. Either way, your home stays tidy, your pets stay content, and your phone stays full of adorable updates while you’re away.
“Jennifer did a great job caring for our 2 dogs. Came by twice a day, fed, watered & played with them. Sent pics from both visits. Communicating with her was easy & she was quick to respond.”

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.
