“Abigail is THE BEST. We have had her check in on our three cats multiple times while we are away. I am completely comfortable with her and she sends updates each day!”
“Once again Elise did a great job of taking care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days. She provided a lot of pics and detailed updates every time she visited. This helped put my mind to an ease when I was traveling. Will definitely hire her again.”
“Krista is very keen about Tumi's needs, as he is my 18 yro boy :) She spends quality time with him. Here updates are complete, and the pictures are fabulous. I look forward to working with Krista in the future.”
“Sarah took care of my elderly cat, Lady (age 20), very well! Much appreciated. The younger cat, Maja, also enjoyed her company while I was out of town. I would book Sarah again in the future. She was very professional and caring.”
“Jacqueline was so fantastic watching our dog over a holiday weekend! She was so detailed summarizing each visit that it helped us relax and enjoy our time away without having to worry about our pup!! 10/10 recommend her for anything you may need for your pets, she’s amazing!!”
“Cailynn kept us so informed after her visits with Simon! I’ve only had him for a year and Simon is my first cat ever so I was nervous about leaving him. The updates and pictures gave me peace of mind that he was comfortable and taken care of. I will definitely be asking Cailynn to help me again!”
“Myah did a wonderful job with our Stella! When I walked in, Stella was like "oh you're here," which is the perfect and desired response when any of us return. Stella should know she is safe at home and whoever walks through that door will take care of her. And Myah did very well, meeting our girl's needs in our neighborhood. Will definitely rebook!”
About: For the past 10 plus years, I have volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I care for dogs by walking and feeding them. I have been a lifelong dog owner, and I currently have two dogs: a dachshund and a medium-sized Labrador/Pit Bull mix. Spending time with dogs is something I enjoy, and caring for them is rewarding. Their companionship brings me a great deal of happiness. I am available during the day as well as in the evenings. Anytime after 5pm is perfect for me! I can do weekend mornings and days as well. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my dogs, especially playing with their favorite toys. We often play with a ball outside and enjoy relaxing together in the sunshine.
“Penny looks forward to Marias visits, it would be an impossible travel without Marias support. Maria is kind, patient, flexible and super communicative. It was a relief to have Maria watch Penny during our long trip.”
“Ryan was an excellent find! Pleasant, dependable, and responsive, he did a fantastic job of taking care of my three cats while we were away for almost two weeks. Not only did he take care of my boys, he also brought in all the packages that we received while we were gone. He will be my first call when I need a pet care from here on out. Thanks Ryan!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dormont
This was my first time having Krista take care of my dog, Lily, and I can’t say enough positive things about her! Krista’s experience, medical knowledge, and soothing behavior with Lily is the perfect combination anyone could ask for in a petsitter. She genuinely cares and looks out for both Lily’s and my needs. I’m ecstatic to have found her!
We couldn't be happier with the care Candy provides for our dog Sophie. At 13 years old, Sophie has unique needs, and Candy handles them with remarkable patience, kindness, and attention to detail. She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Knowing Sophie is safe, comfortable, and loved while we're at work is invaluable. Candy is truly wonderful, and we highly recommend her services.
My husband and I had just moved and we were very nervous about leaving our cat Rue home for a wedding! We found Abigail and she was AMAZING!! She sends the most detailed updates, and we could tell how much she cared. It made us feel so much better knowing our girl was in the best hands. Would highly recommend Abigail to anyone! 🤍
Shelby was an AMAZING sitter, even my super shy and skiddish cat opened up to her!! Great communication and picture taking while we were out of town so we were thankfully able to see all the updates with our kitties stress free :) I would definitely book with her again❤️
We had Lauren stop by daily for 2 weeks for our 2 cats. She was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure they weren’t missing us too much. Lauren was great at sending us pictures and messages about the cats. We’ll definitely be rebooking Lauren next time we go out of town.
Caralyn is an amazing petsitter!! She is super kind and caring. She goes above and beyond to make sure that my cats are happy while I’m gone, taking lots of time to play with them and give them treats. It’s a huge relief knowing that my kitties are in good hands while I’m away!!
William was absolutely everything I was looking for!! I was in Switzerland for 8 days and was very nervous leaving my pup but I was continuously updated and kept in the loop about visits and how Loki was doing. William was VERY flexible as it was only a few days before my trip that i requested such a lengthy date for William to check in on Loki. I was updated with pictures and was reassured by William on how Loki was eating/drinking and acting every day. Loki absolutely adored Billy from the second they met. I will 1000000% be using Billy in the future for any of my needs with Loki. I couldn’t recommend him enough!!! If you need anyone, Billy is definitely the way to go!
Rachel was an awesome, super communicative pet sitter that we'd be more than happy to book again! She made sure that we knew how our cat, Chili, was doing every day via multiple updates and answered any spur of the moment questions immediately. She also ensured she was prepared in advance by getting in touch well before our booked dates. Thank you for being an excellent sitter!

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.

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.
