“Andria accepted our request immediately, had wonderful communication before meeting, met on time to learn the details of our cat and meet him. During her visits, she would sent pictures and great updates! We highly recommend Andria to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter! 😊”
“If I could give 6 stars, I would! Angela was AMAZING. We had an urgent situation come up and I couldn't go home on my lunch breaks to let our puppy out, so needed someone to be able to help out. We had never used Rover.com, but we were in a bind and I didn't know what else to do. Angela put me right at ease and even texted in real time with me during her first visit. She was so kind and made it her mission so ensure Moose was well taken care of. Her reports were very detailed and she included tons of pictures. I would recommend her over and over again. We will definitely use Angela again if we have sitter needs for our pup! You should use her too (just not when we need her lol)!”
“Mara was great! She did drop in visits to care for our cat while we were on vacation. Lucy, our cat, is very shy and this was the first time we have used this service, so we didn't know what to expect. As the week went on, I could see in the pictures that Lucy was warming up to Mara. Lucy seemed very happy and well cared for when we returned homes.”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life and love a snuggle with a dog or cat! I have my own cat at home and am often taking care of friends' dogs. I work as a teacher, and would be available to check in or house sit on evenings after 4pm, weekends, or other regular school breaks. While my cat will not take kindly to strangers, I will happily follow your routine while in your home! We can play, cuddle, or go on walks, whatever you need.
“Anna was a great pet sitter! She was also incredibly flexible, I accidentally booked the wrong dates (I put May instead of April), and she kindly accommodated the change without any issues. Most importantly, she got along really well with my cat, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Andrea took great care of our cat, Callie! Callie doesn’t warm up to just anyone, but felt very comfortable with Andrea which made being away so much easier. We will be using Andrea again for sure!”
“Mia is a very responsible sitter! My cat is a shy boy when seeing strangers, but he was willing to play with Mia! Definitely will have another booking with Mia in the future.”
“Hound did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. He was reliable and played with him. I think Boz really likes Hound. Hound sent lots of photos too! Thank you Hound for a super job!”
“Naomi was very quick to respond and accepted my request even though it was pretty last minute! She does great with my dog and I can tell that takes great care of him during their time together :)”
About: We had a poodle and then a cat in the house when I was a kid. Since then I've lived with several different cats and have been helping to look after friends' pets of various species when they're out of town or unavailable. I completed a course by the Professional Pet Care Association to become a Certified Pet Sitter and Dog Walker. I typically start my primary job at 3pm so late mornings and early afternoons are great for drop-ins or walks. Thursdays and Fridays are my normal days off so I'm available to spend more time with your pets then. The Practical Stuff: Happy to come over and provide food, water, exercise, and scoop litter boxes for your pets. The Other Important Stuff: I want your pet to feel safe and cared for while you're not there. I love petting, cuddling, playing, talking and generally hanging out with any dog or cat that wants the attention. If you have other pets like fish, reptiles, arthropods, etc. I can likely help out with them too. Let's talk about it. I'm fond of house plants and have dozens of my own so I'm happy to keep them watered for you.
“Callie did a great job with our girls! On time as scheduled and very patient and let the girls slowly warm up to her. She was so detailed in her note and sent us lots of great photos! Will definitely be using her again!!!”
“Joanna did an excellent job taking care of our kitties! She went above and beyond to cater to each of their unique needs. She also was able to make sure one of our cats got their medication. She also takes amazing pictures! It made us so happy to see our kitties while we were away and missing them. We would love to have her take care of our cats anytime. She made our first time using Rover so easy and an extremely positive experience!”
About: I have taken care of various breeds of dogs for many years! I’m an animal lover and would look forward to taking care of your fur baby! I have two cats myself, and spent 18 years of my life living with dogs. I’m currently working full time as a nurse, but my schedule varies which makes it much easier to meet your pets needs! I am also always willing to make switches to ensure your pets are taken care of! Being a nurse, I am really good at picking up when energy is off. I will always respect your pets boundaries and work to understand what they need! I love taking care of fur babies, and would do whatever is asked to keep them comfortable! I have cats myself and grew up with dogs for 18 years. I am very familiar with behaviors and how to read pet needs.
“Matt did a great job taking care of our two cats, Luni and CJ, while we were away! He came over a couple of days beforehand to meet them and was also wonderful with our dogs. Matt was dependable, caring, and communicative, and he even brought in our mail and packages. We really appreciated his help and would definitely have him watch our cats again.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. I often dog sit for my parents and friends. I am very adaptable to the needs of any animal! I currently work full time day shift and always have weekends off. On the weekends, we like to take walks to the park to play or just stay home and cuddle up on the couch and watch movies. I have a fenced in backyard. I work 10 minutes from home so I am free to stop in and let dogs out throughout the day.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Douglas
It was the third time we work with Alison, and she took great care of our two cats and fish as always. She spent quality time with our two cats everyday. When she noticed the cats requires more attention than we originally planned, we gald that she can extended her daily stays. Besides that, she helped maintain our place clean and organized when incidents happened, and proactively helped us around our home (put out trash, check on our garden, sprayed an ant nest, etc. ). It was such pleasant experience working with her, and I would recommend her to anyone!
Andria accepted our request immediately, had wonderful communication before meeting, met on time to learn the details of our cat and meet him. During her visits, she would sent pictures and great updates! We highly recommend Andria to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter! 😊

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.
