“Amazing from service from Sheila yet again! We love getting her lively updates and photos while we are gone, and we know our cats (and our home) are in the best hands possible.”
“Hannah was our savior when it came to needing a last minute drop in and she couldn’t have been more perfect. She was super communicative and sent tons of pictures from her time with Arthur. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“Kimberly was amazing! Just moved to the area and was nervous about finding a new sitter for a cat that recently became a solo cat but Kimberly eased all anxieties. Super communicative, timely, and considerate. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Ann watched our Corgi puppy over the Thanksgiving holiday and was absolutely wonderful. She was prompt and kept us updated making our first trip away from our dog as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend Ann to anyone and we will be using her again.”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for my friends’ and family’s pets over the course of several years. I have given oral medications and topical treatments to some of the pets I’ve taken care of, and so much love (with a treat or two in the mix) to all of them. I’ve always felt a deep bond with animals from a young age. I do my best to make pets feel more like they’re hanging out with me rather than being a robotic supervisor. I can manage multiple pets simultaneously, having once had four cats under one roof in my care, and they all receive ample attention and affection. Thank you for considering me! I am a recent college graduate deep in the job search, but at the moment have plenty of time to hang out with your pet! I mostly just go to the gym and have the occasional board game night with my friends, so pet care is very easy to slot into my schedule. I read through care instructions very thoroughly, and I let pets introduce themselves to me when they’re comfortable. After we become acquainted I just spend some quality time with them and perform tasks as needed, like food, walks, litter boxes, etc.
“My dogs (two 5-year old German shepherds) love Loretta and I have utilized her services several times and she takes great care of my fur babies anytime I’m gone. I appreciate her very much! I highly recommend her.”
“Sara did a great job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation. She even was able to stick to our dogs complicated feeding schedule. I had peace of mind knowing Sara was checking on dog.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with both cats and dogs as a child, which gave me an early appreciation for the companionship, care, and attention pets need. I currently have three cats, ranging from 2 to 6 years old, and I adopted each of them when they were young kittens at around 2-3 months old. Caring for them from kittenhood into adulthood has given me hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box care, grooming, playtime, and caring for multiple pets at once. I’m also comfortable caring for shy or nervous pets and understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level. I’m patient and willing to give them the time and space they need to feel safe. I can follow detailed care instructions closely and have experience giving oral medication when needed. I love spending quality time with animals, whether that means playing with them, going on a walk, giving them treats, keeping them company, or simply sitting nearby so they feel comfortable. I treat pets like family and will always do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re in my care. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m often able to accommodate short-notice requests and can also plan ahead for longer visits or pet-sitting needs. Because my schedule is flexible, I can be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and do my best to keep their schedule consistent while you’re away. I’m happy to come to your pet’s familiar environment, where they can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, treats, basic grooming, medication as instructed, and plenty of companionship and attention. I’ll also follow any specific care instructions you provide and do my best to keep your pet’s schedule as consistent as possible. I understand that some pets may be shy or need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and happy to let them approach at their own pace.
About: I have grown up and lived with dogs for my entire life so I understand the responsibility and care they need on a daily basis. Whether your dog needs time outside of the house or a friendly face during the day; I offer dog sitting and/or walking, as well as overnight care at owner’s house (aka housesitting). I have grown up with dogs my entire life and therefore have a lot of experience caring for them! My summer availability is pretty much all day everyday! If hours needed outside of those listed, feel free to ask! Mon - Fri: 9am - 5pm Sat - Sun: 9am - 5pm My availability will be changing as of September 21st and will be as follows: Mon, Tues, Thurs: 4pm - 7pm Wed, Fri: 9am - 5pm Sat -Sun: 9am - 5pm My dogs are apart of the family! We love going outside and on walks but also enjoy just relaxing at the house. I will make sure that your dog feels the same type of love!
About: As a long time owner of a working breed, I am familiar with energetic dogs that need both physical activity and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. I go on daily hour long strolls each evening with my own dog as well as morning walks with play sessions scattered throughout the day. In addition to caring for my own dog, I've regularly helped friends and watch their dogs while they're away. This has given me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it's taking them on walks, keeping up with feeding schedules, providing companionship, or making sure they feel comfortable in a new environment, I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique needs and personality! When caring for your dog, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, or simply providing companionship and attention. I live in a home with a fenced backyard with my partner who is also work from home, so we have a very flexible schedule and will always have at least one person supervising your pet. Since I've also used dog sitting apps before for when I needed to travel abroad, I understand how important it is to keep you updated with photos, messages, and plenty of reassurance so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm currently in-between jobs, so I'll have plenty of time to spend the day with your pups! This also means my current schedule is very flexible to fit around your dogs routine and needs. I have a fenced backyard with a friendly 4 year old Samoyed in a very walk-able neighborhood. I have a dog bed is most rooms around the house so they can pick and choose wherever they wish to lounge.
“Diana is the best. I've needed her help on more than one occasion and she is always professional, friendly, and thorough with communication. If you need a sitter for your cat (or dog), there is no better option!”
About: Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how to read their body language, respect their individual personalities, and give them the genuine love and patience they deserve. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of undivided time, attention, and quality care to your pets. I am readily available for daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and overnight house sitting. I will strictly follow your preferred schedule for feedings and walks to maintain your pet's routine seamlessly. Safety and clean environments are my highest priorities. I maintain a home that is fully pet-proofed, quiet, and secure, ensuring pets can relax comfortably. Whether in my home or yours, I double-check door locks, gates, and leashes to prevent escapes, and I never leave pets unsupervised in open areas. I respect your home, strictly follow your care guidelines, and provide prompt photo updates after every visit.
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for over 5 years, including seniors, shy rescues, and energetic kittens. I’ve helped foster and rehome multiple cats, and currently care for three of my own. Friends and neighbors often rely on me to feed, clean, and spend quality time with their pets. I’m gentle, attentive, and love learning each animal’s unique personality. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and every interaction with animals feels incredibly healing and meaningful to me. I wish I could welcome even more animals into my life, but since I can’t right now, I treat every pet I care for like family whether they live in my home or yours. Pet care is already part of my daily life. I have three cats at home, including one I'm currently fostering. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love being around them as much as possible. I provide a calm, pet-friendly space with lots of love and patience. I'm especially experienced with shy or anxious cats and dogs, and I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. My own pets are well socialized, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions you have.
About: I used to volunteer at animal shelters throughout high school and pet sit for family friends. I am currently an animal science major so I know a lot about pets and how to care for them. I make it my mission to treat every animal I see like my own and show nothing but love and comfort. I am currently a student in college as well as an after school leader at an elementary school. I only go to school 2 days a week but those days i have closed off for certain services. Mondays I am only out of my home from 2-4 and Wednesdays from 2:30-6. Other than those days and time I am completely available for your fur baby. I do offer dog walking and drop ins everyday, but only around certain times. I will have plenty of time to play around with your pets and make sure they are well taken care of. I tend to go on walks daily so dog walking fits perfectly. I have a fenced yard and a big backyard for the times I care for pets at my home. I have 2 small dogs, 1 keeps to herself and is very calm, the other is very playful and likes to run around with other dogs. However it is very easy to separate my fur babies from yours if you aren’t comfortable with other dogs. I have 2 sides to my house and can keep them on opposite sides. I am close to several dog parks as well and in case of emergency close to a veterinary clinic. I am very careful with instructions if there is any special needs your pets have. I always make sure the pets I look after are happy and well taken care of.
About: I have a heart for animals and love being with them and taking care of them. It really brings me a lot of joy. I love walking dogs and going on a mini adventure. Playing with them and making sure they have everything they need to keep them happy and healthy. I'm pretty flexible Monday - Saturday for dog walking, dog/cat sitting.Can start around 7am - 9pm most days. I can also do overnights if needed and come back later in the day if needed. I'm reliable and responsible. I will give loving care to your pet just like I would my own dog or cat. I have a heart for animals and they bring me joy. I aim to give that joy right back to them too! I love walking dogs and taking care of fur babies.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Duarte
Sheila was wonderful!! Our cats normally are nervous around new people but they were comfortable with Sheila almost immediately! She is a real kitty whisperer. She took great care of our boys and our house and was super thorough during her visits. Thanks Sheila!!
Tiffany is very thoughtful and sweet with my two weirdos! She stayed overtime to make sure they ate properly, also helped me take care of the house when I was gone. Of course she’s very responsive and communicative. Tiffany goes above and beyond and I will definitely ask Tiffany to help again!
Jessie was amazing with my cat. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and caring with my cat. Even during the meet and greet, my cat warmed up to her right away with no adjustment period at all. By the end, my cat absolutely adored her. Super grateful for the thoughtful care and attention during the drop-in visits.
Joli has been amazing from the first message, to her check in and pictures, to leaving our home in better order than she found it, to communicating to schedule more visits. I was really looking for someone who was not just great with my boys, but also demonstrated professionalism, accountability and that I could find trustworthy of handling the responsibility of caring for my babies. Joli has been the sitter I was hoping for! Thank you so much, Joli, for helping me have peace of mind for much needed time away! Looking forward to having you stay with the boys for many more trips!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Duarte stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
