“All USA took great care of our senior cats with medical needs! She made sure they got their medications (insulin injection for one, oral medication for the other), the right food and water, and plenty of TLC. She was prompt, reliable, and a good communicator who provided all the thoughtful touches that put us at ease. We’ll be on the lookout for her for future pet sitting needs!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and adore them! Dogs, cats, and more. I’ve had experience of taking care of/ petting sitting my families pets for a few years. Love taking care of them <3 I have a very open schedule as a tattoo apprentice and I am free most evenings and mornings. I can fit pet sitting around my job. I have a fenced in yard and four sweet doggies. They are crate trained so they don’t get into stuff at night or while I’m away. I also have two cats who lay around on heated pads and live the spoiled good life. All of the animals get plenty of treats and spoilings! 🤭
“Destiny and Ben did amazing job giving my Hayes his shot. Hayes doesn’t always want to eat and was able to get him to eat while getting his shot. My Monkey doesn’t like anyone but me. They were able to get her out to eat and play with the laser. They followed my instructions on giving his insulin shot and they were experienced in giving insulin injections. They give me the peace to know they were in good hands.”
“Jacqueline was prompt, communicative, and good with our pets with a variety of needs—not even to mention that she saved us from a last-minute cancellation. I wholeheartedly recommend her services and will contact her again if she’ll have us!”
“Colleen O is very attentive to your pet's needs and owner's worried concerns. I have a African grey parrot and she had no problem taking her on even though my bird could be moody. Colleen listened to my concerns and conquered my bird, even had her talking in the end which is no easy feat. I would recommend Colleen to anyone with special needs pets and of course any fur baby. She's an amazing sitter!”
“Kristan did an amazing job taking care of my 2 cats for a week. She was very punctual with her visits, responsive, attentive, & provided daily updates. It is clear that she loves animals, & that they love her back. I will definitely rebook!”
About: I was raised right alongside the dogs and cats, and i hold experience with animals of all shapes and sizes! Dogs, cats, kittens, fish, gerbil, even horses! My mother is a retired dog trainer who’s taught me a great deal of tidbits in animal care, and she’s always here incase i need some extra advice on the job. I also have experience with dogs that have mild to moderate special needs. One of our current dogs, Rusty, is a picky eater in diapers. Unfortunately i don’t have a lot of experience with puppies, so i will not accept them at this time. I will only consider a dog under a year if they are very well mannered. I also have a lot of experience with cats. I have a knack for getting them to like me somehow! Heres what i WON’T do: -i won’t take any dog with a history of aggression and/or biting. -i cannot accommodate high energy dogs. -i won’t take large/giant dogs. May consider if they are extremely well mannered and leash trained. Im a small woman! -house trained pets only. -pets with extreme special needs. I am equipped to handle mild to moderate special needs. I will always request a detailed schedule/list as well as house dos and don’ts. I take my job seriously and want to do it right. Plus, you can relax a little more and i won’t bother you with too many little questions! Thanks for listening! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I am very flexible as i currently only have a part time job i work Friday mornings-early noon. On Fridays, the schedule may differ by a few hours but i’ll always make sure to get back to your friend ASAP! I’ll make sure to spend as much time with your friend as they need that i can give! Walks, treats, lovin, you ask and i’ll do mu best to provide!
“Carlee took great care of my cats while I was away on a trip! She was responsive and took lots of pics of my fur babies. I felt so relieved knowing my cats were with someone I could trust!!”
“Lindsay was awesome. She was able to provide coverage on wildly short notice and Gus was a huge fan. Lindsay’s consistent updates (and pictures) let me know that Gus was enjoying himself, which made it easier for me to enjoy myself. 10/10 would recommend”
About: I had a dog that had a liver shunt and I kept him going with medication and good loving care. He lived to be 10 years old which my vet normally they don’t live past 5 years old. I am a retired banker and it’s always been my dream to be a pet sitter. I have some back issues so I would only be able to take care of small pets up to 20 pounds. Also I would prefer that the owner of the animal have a fenced in yard as I am not able to walk long distances. I prefer to keep your pet in the owners home where the animal feels more secure and safe. I am free to stay with your pet as long as needed.
About: I have learned everything there is to know about small animal care in school and in practice. I love my four babies and I have pet sat for years ! Lizzards, sugar gliders, kittens and great Danes lol!! I work at a vet hospital to further my leanring from graduateing with my associates in veterinary technology, i also study about animal on my free time! I have a two story house with self cleaning litter boxes and a fountain water bowl for my cats. They have bedding to lay on and plenty of windows to look out of.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 9 years old, starting with family pets and helping neighbors with their dogs and cats. As a lifelong pet owner, I'm comfortable caring for multiple pets at once. I currently have 8 dogs and 3 cats of my own, so I'm experienced with different personalities, energy levels, feeding routines, administering basic care, and keeping everyone safe and happy. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just wants extra cuddles, I'll provide reliable, compassionate care and treat them like part of my own family. I’m a mental health therapist and have some flexibility, especially on Fridays and the weekends! Whatever schedule you need, we can discuss of course to make sure your pets are cared for. I like to check on dogs 3-4 times a day when I’m responsible for them. I also understand each dog is different and has their own needs.
About: Hi, my name is Riley and I absolutely love dogs, so I decided to join Rover! I do have two dogs of my own, and they love making new friends. Because of my two boys, I have learned so much about what it takes to provide a happy, healthy life for a dog. From walks, to fetch, and even to just laying around getting belly rubs, I always do what I can to make dogs happy and get their tails wagging! I have a house with a big fenced in yard, and a doggy door that is open at all times to access the outside whenever! My dogs LOVE it, because they can play all day, but can come in for a power nap when they want, too. My boys and I look forward to making a new fur friend! I work Monday-Friday, 7:30-5pm. I am fortunate to have flexibility to telework, however, so I am able to be home throughout the day when necessary! I have a doggy door, as well as a fenced in yard so that the pups are able to roam freely and go outside when needed. I’m also able to crate pups, if requested, as I have 2 extra large crates!
“I never leave reviews, but Anna did such a great job taking care of my boy that I had too. Anna provided quick replies to my questions and showed up on time as requested. My pup needs some medications, so I was a bit concerned about leaving my dog in the care of someone else. The fact that Anna is a Registered Nurse put me at ease. She payed very close attention to detail in providing the medication my pup requires. Anna went above and beyond the instructions I had for her. She was even kind enough to water one of my exotic plants. My dog is very big at 158 lbs. She interacted with my dog very well. My dog definitely enjoyed her company. Anna has good energy, is very professional, responsible and trustworthy. I 100% recommend Anna. She will definitely be my go to for all my future dog care needs.”

Really happy we found Skye! She kept me updated with photos every day which I loved, was super trustworthy and communicative the whole time, and even went out of her way to water my plants and grab my mail! I felt at ease the whole trip because of how well Koda took to her! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience and we will 100% be booking her again. Koda has a new friend 💛

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 Dunbar 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. 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 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.
