“Elizabeth was the perfect pet sitter for our cat who always hides from pet sitters. She made sure that she was eating, drinking and well each visit and even managed to snap a photo of the elusive creature-though blurry I could tell it was her! Thank you Elizabeth!”

That's why we provide the same love, patience, and attention we'd want for our own dogs. Our goal is for every pup to feel safe, happy, and right at home while you're away.

“Becky did an amazing job with the drop-in for our pups. She kept in touch with us during the whole process and even met up with us before coming over to make sure it was a good fit. The pictures she sent showed us how happy our pups were to have her over. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Thanks, Becky!!”
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.
About: Most people know me as “B.J.” Short for Betty Jean. I love animals. I have had dogs & cats all my life. I have a rescue lab mix & who is my world. Also our feral rescue kitty. Only the best for them. I will take care of your fur baby as if they are my own. I am currently working an office job Monday-Friday but getting ready to retire from a 29 year career. I can do drop-ins & walks on the weekends for now. Starting next year I can do this full time. I’m so excited! I will follow the individual instructions you give me to take care of your pet. I will treat them with all the love & snuggles they want. I can do walks & drop in visits.
About: As a Certified Master Dog Trainer, caring for dogs is more than just a job—it’s what I do every day. I have experience with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also own a German shepherd and a Belgian Malinois who both are high-energy dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling active breeds and making sure they get the physical and mental enrichment they need while staying safe and having fun. I’m available Monday through Friday with flexible daytime and afternoon scheduling. If you have a specific time in mind, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. I know trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big deal, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and make sure your furry family member is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Couldn’t be happier. My dogs mean the world to me! It was difficult to leave them with someone to take care of them. If opportunity presents itself I won’t hesitate to call Rinske again. It was a pleasure to meet her. Thank you”
About: I have alot of compassion for our pets that rely on us for everything. We are their world. I am here to make your time away from home a positive one for the pets and the homeowner. I am currently working part-time, but I am planning on transitioning to pet-sitting full-time. Animals deserve great care when their owners are away. My visits with your pet/pets will be scheduled as requested. I will make sure that their environment is safe and clean up any accidents. Their food will be given as you request and water bowls will be be replenished. Going for walks and outdoor playtime is also available.
About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has always been a genuine part of my life, not just a job. I currently have two cats of my own who I’ve raised and care for every day, and I also have experience caring for three dogs—feeding them, playing with them, taking them on walks, and giving them plenty of attention and love. My first dog, Dexter, is where my love for caring for animals really began. I walked him every day, fed him every night, bathed him, played with him, and loved him enough for every star in the sky. ❤️ I know how important pets are to their families because mine mean the world to me. When someone trusts me with their pet, I want them to feel confident knowing their baby is being cared for with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I’m currently a student and attend classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, which leaves me with a very flexible schedule throughout the rest of the week. I’m especially available Thursdays through Sundays, and I can often accommodate different times or last-minute needs. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m always happy to work with you to find a time that fits both your schedule and your pet’s routine! I understand that trusting someone with your pet also means trusting them in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will always be respectful of your space, follow any instructions you leave for me, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. When caring for your cat, I’ll keep their environment safe, clean, and comfortable while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat and your home are being well cared for while you’re away. 🐱🤍
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 2. I love fur babies more anything. In fact, I wanted to be a veterinarian for the longest time so in high school, I took 4 years of vet assisting, shadowed at a vet clinics and became certified vet assistant! As I got older, I ultimately switched career paths. I work from home now in corporate event planning. This gives me the flexibility to be home with my pets and hopefully take care of yours as well! I do work full time, but fortunately work from home which gives me plenty of flexibility! My pups always get plenty of play time during the work day! Boarding would be perfect. I do have the time to be able to go on walks as well. I have a big fenced yard and have my own dogs. They are all very friendly and love playing with eachother and other dogs. They would love to have another friend to play with!
“Kayla is just the sweetest! My family and I moved here from Baton Rouge, LA only three days before needing an unexpected sitter for our sweet, elder beagle Otis. Kayla came to our home for our in-person meeting and we (& Otis) felt comfortable immediately. She cared for Otis 3 days in a row, and left us detailed notes and the cutest photos/videos every time. We will definitely schedule her again!”
“emmie is the best! she’s my go-to gal, so reliable and communicative and she was so great with my cat. he’s a rescue and older, so a little shy around new people but immediately felt comfortable with her. highly recommend!”
“Teri took care of our two cats and did an excellent job. She followed all instructions and took the time to play with and engage with our cats. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter. She also cleaned up after the cats. Thank you, Teri and Rover!”
About: I love dogs. Dogs love me. I’ll treat your dog like family 💜 Life long pet lover with integrity, who provides genuine care and can accommodate your special pup’s needs. I’m used to always having a dog in my house, but since my last passed on I’ve started boarding, walking, and caring for other’s pets. My home is currently pet-free but fully stocked with treats. Your pup will have the attention they need and the care they deserve. I’m happy to honor most all special requests.

Throughout the entire time we utilized Dustin for care while being gone, we had very few issues. We wish him the very best.

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.
