About: I grew up on a cattle ranch and have been taking care of animals since I was little. Cats, dogs, chickens, sheep - you name it. I love animals and would be happy to care for yours while you're away! I am currently working on graduate research from home and looking for full-time work. My schedule is flexible, and I would love to get out of the house, especially to see your pets! I will ensure the safest, most comfortable environment for your pets. I know routine brings our pets comfort, and I will tailor my visits to their existing schedules, especially maintaining your pet’s normal feedings, fresh water, walks, litter box cleaning, and playtime.
“Morgan is exceptionally detail-oriented and provided outstanding care for my boys. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and clear communication gave me complete confidence that they were in excellent hands. It was evident that she genuinely cared about their well-being and went above and beyond to ensure they were comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone seeking a dependable, trustworthy, and compassionate dog sitter.”
About: I've grown up in a family that owns cats. My family cutie cat was adopted 3 years ago and is almost 4 years old! Therefore, I LOVE interacting with different animals that have their unique characteristics. Knowing that every pet is different, I will do meet & greet before starting to take care of your furry family members. At the same time, I will carefully document my interactions with them to make sure you are comfortable with my feeding, playtime, medication delivery, and following any specific instructions to keep pets happy and comfortable. If you have younger/older pets that may need more consistency, I will definitely be more gentle with my care. My goal, like many sitters, is to always let your pets feeling safe with me while you're away. I have the confidence that your family members will be treated with real care!!! Thank you for reading my profile and I am looking forward to your request :) Even though I’m a student, pet care still fits well into my routine because I manage my time carefully and have enough flexibility to give pets the attention they need. I’m used to staying organized with my schedule, so making time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins is something I can plan for and stay consistent with. I also enjoy being around animals, so pet care feels like a meaningful and enjoyable part of my week. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep their pet’s routine consistent since I know that familiar surroundings can help them feel more comfortable. I also respect the home by keeping things tidy, being careful with doors, gates, and food, and making sure the pet stays safe at all times. My goal is to make pets feel cared for and give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in a safe and dependable environment.
“Jordan is very trust worthy and reliable. Took great care of our precious Mya Dog for a week. I think she missed him when we returned! Highly recommend him as a sitter.”
“Sydney showed up at 8am before we left for our day to Disneyland. We acquainted her with our two dogs and they took to her right away.. Sydney really has a way with dogs. They both loved her so much, immediately. Our dog situation isn’t easy. We have a four year-old American bully and a one year-old very energetic pitbull who’s so much fun however, for the time being we’re keeping both dogs separate and Sydney kept both of our dogs, safe & clean, and even though Henny had an accident, Sydney cleaned up everything & was even able to feed her and get her back in her crate safe safely. Our family is so grateful to Sydney for taking such incredible care of our family dogs! Thank you!”

About: My name is Bella, and I'm a UC Davis student with a genuine passion for caring for both animals and plants. Whether you have dogs, cats, fish, frogs, snakes, lizards, or other unique pets, I'm committed to providing attentive care and plenty of play time to help your pets feel safe and comfortable while you're away. At 16, I started pet sitting, which has given me experience caring for a wide variety of animals at all stages of life, from weaning kittens to senior pups. I'm hoping to find part-time pet sitting work for those living in the city of Davis. If you have any questions, please reach out. I look forward to working with you! Whenever I have extra time in the day, I like to spend it with pets! As a newcomer to Davis, I'm hoping to incorporate pet sitting into my weekly routine while getting to know the community. Please reach out for further scheduling details. Thank you! At the beginning of each visit, I make sure pets have a chance to go potty, then I check, wash, and refill their water bowls and follow any feeding or medication instructions provided. I like to keep a written checklist for every visit so I wont miss an important task! Once their basic needs are taken care of, I love spending time with them by playing, brushing, petting, or going on walks (only with owner approval and at appropriate temperatures!). Before heading out, I like to snap a cute photo and give updates so you (the owner) can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind.
“Zoe is great! Our dog Jackson is high energy and can be difficult, but Zoe handles him confidently and with care. We feel comfortable going out of town knowing that Zoe will check on Jackson while we are away.”
“Wyatt took care of Simba in our Christmas break. He was very consistent in timing and followed each of the tasks on time. Simba was in great conditions when we came back from the vacation. We would love to work with Wyatt again in future. Thank you”
“I could not have asked for someone more accommodating to my special circumstances. Samantha showed up 10 minutes early to the appointment at my last minute request, and stayed in the hotel room with my dog while I went to government appointment having just flown in to LAX. She helped me during my time in need by taking such good care of my puppy. She even took him for a walk in the hotel! Samantha is kind, caring, and good human being overall. I highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Jessie is wonderful to have as our pet sitter! She communicates well and was so great with Oslo. She is totally trustworthy and we will definitely be calling upon her again!”
“Sofia had great communication and updated me during every visit she had with my pug. Even though my dog can be stubborn when it comes to eating, she always made sure he ate and was taken care of.”
About: My entire life, my family has had at least two dogs, so I'm very well versed and familiar with the care and attention that a variety of different dog breeds need to get. In addition, I have two kittens of my own, who are extremely well cared for. Animals are my passion in life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I can guarantee your fur babies will get all of the love, attention, and care in the world while I'm watching them. I'm a student and work part-time, so I'm busy but have a schedule that easily allows me to check in on your pets as-needed! I can check in frequently, spend hours with your pets, and sleep over if preferred. How I care for your pets depends on your personal instructions, boundaries, and expectations, and the specific needs of your pet, if applicable. I always closely follow all instructions and requests that I receive, so that I can best make your pet(s) comfortable and within their usual routines, and to best respect your home.
“Michelle was so great! She was easy to communicate with, and was very contentious. She checked in when she had a few potential health concerns about my cat and I could tell that my sweet kitty was very well taken care of while I was gone. Would definitely rebook and recommend to others!”
“Sydney is absolutely fantastic! My little pup is very shy around new people but within a day or two, he warmed up to Sydney and felt very comfortable with her. She is super responsive, communicative, and provides great rover cards. I love receiving her updates immediately following her drop ins!”
About: I’ve always been around animals growing up and have walked for various family friends! I used to have a boxer dog who was my best friend, and I’m looking to be around dogs again! I’m a college student who is home for the summer that loves to walk and exercise while hanging out with your furry family member! I’m free in the mornings until 12pm, Tuesday-Saturday. I am open to dog sitting and dog walking during that time. If needed, I’m free after 9pm most days as well for dog sitting or walking! I’ve always had pets in my home and have learned over the years and growing up the responsibility a pet is. Your dog/cat is part of the family and they should be treated like that by everyone!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Dina! Time and time again, she has gone above and beyond to accommodate our needs and make things work with her schedule. She is incredibly dependable, flexible, and genuinely caring. On one occasion, she even carried cat litter up three flights of stairs because they needed it, something she absolutely didn’t have to do, but did without hesitation. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our cats are in the hands of someone who truly cares about their comfort and well-being. Thank you Dina!!!!
Quinn truly went above and beyond for our pups!!! She was willing to step in with a late notice when a friend cancelled on us, and made sure to take special care of our pups! She takes the most AMAZING photos and we always have a good laugh opening up our pups’ report cards! Could not recommend Quinn more, literally the BEST!!!!!
We left our two cats with Jenna for two weeks, and during that time she was extremely attentive, communicative, and caring. She was sweet and gentle, and made them safe and comfortable while we were gone. Not only that, but she sent photos of our babies every day! Thank you so much, Jenna, for keeping our kitties safe and happy!!
Ally is a deeply caring, conscious person. My puppy and I are so grateful to have found her on Rover! I have a rambunctious 11-week-old puppy who requires constant supervision. Ally made sure he was safe and cared for! I received pictures on Louie sleeping in her lap and enjoying the garden, which delighted me. No hesitation on giving Ally five stars!!

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 .

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.
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.
