About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. I house-sit and pet-sit for several family friends and relatives. I'm experienced with all kinds of animals. I've owned a very wide array of animals throughout my life, all the way from farm animals to reptiles, fish, rodents and everything in-between. My favorite animal is dogs of all kinds, but I can take care of other animals. I can do all kinds of medications and any special cares needs that your baby might need. I work from home and make my own schedule so I'm always available to host animals, house-sit animals, or just stop by for play time and potty time as frequently as needed. I have a fur baby of my own who is just over 3 years old and she loves other dogs. I have a fenced in yard where your fur babies can run and play freely. My baby is crate trained but can also be trusted to be left out. We let our dogs get on the furniture and sleep in the bed with us.
“I can’t say enough good things about Riley! This was my first time using this service and I was really nervous leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know. Riley assured me that she would treat my dog like he was her own, and she did just that. In every picture she sent, he was happy and satisfied. She was very communicative, too. 100/10 recommend her!!!”
“As always, Haley was wonderful. She took wonderful care of our two dogs! She was caring, reliable, and treated them like her own. We came home to two happy pups and would definitely have her watch them again. Highly recommend!”
“Carla and family are such amazing caregivers to my sweet dog. Oliver is always so happy to see them and I appreciate the peace of mind they give me by caring for my puppy! She also takes the BEST pictures! :)”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I currently work as a full time veterinary technician at general practice animal hospital where I am pursuing my degree in veterinary technology. I also have previous experience working in veterinary vaccination clinics, where I gained hands-on experience handling and caring for dogs and cats of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with animal handling, recognizing signs of illness or discomfort, following detailed care instructions, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I also have pets of my own, including a large dog and three cats, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. My goal is to provide every pet with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, or just some extra attention, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine, both at home and through my work as a veterinary technician. I fit bookings around my work schedule and confirm availability beforehand so each pet gets the time and attention they need. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable with me. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, and care, keep doors and gates secure, and respect your home. You can also expect updates and photos while you’re away!
“Kailyn is in a league of her own when it comes to caring for dogs! She is outstanding in the way she engages with our two Labradors, has such a warm way about her, is confident and thorough. We look forward to working with her in the future! Thank you Kailyn!”
“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles. I felt my dog and home was safe with her visiting when I needed her. Even when my dog fell sick, she went the extra mile to keep me posted and checking on her. I’m glad she is local to Chapel Hill and will be using her services again.”
“Always does a great job with Herschel and follows instructions perfectly. I can Herschel really likes him and Herschel doesn’t like many people. Would definitely recommend for anyone else.”
“Steven was amazing with our animals! We felt very safe with him watching our cats and he sent the best photos and always kept us updated. He’s easy to work with, communicative, and always had our pets best interest in mind. Highly recommend hiring him!”
“Natalie and Todd were great with our cat Smoky! We appreciated all of the photos and open communication. Smoky was a happy boy when we came home and they even brought in our mail and offered to water our plants without being asked.”
“Brianne was fabulous - as always! She picked up our babies and brought them to our wedding photos. We are so grateful for her communication and care she takes. Amazing sitter!”
About: I’ve had all types of animals since the age of 5! Rabbits, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, turtles, and even rehab raccoons. I love all animals more than most things in the world, your pet will be in the best hands and care with me. Im currently working part time, and when I'm not working I'm home! I am home every night and will absolutely let your pet snuggle in bed if they want to I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with a fenced in dog park and miles of side walked back roads through our village to walk your pup on! I love to get my 10,000 steps everyday, and also be a couch potato, so if you have an active dog or a lazy dog i can adapt to whatever they need. Y
About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. With plenty of experience, I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, flexible with scheduling, and always willing to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just keeping your furry friend company, I’m here to help! I work a full-time rotating schedule where I’m on for 7 days straight and then off for 7 days. My work week always starts on a Thursday and ends on a Wednesday. During those 7 workdays, I’m working full-time each day. After that, I get a full week off to rest and take care of personal things. It’s a repeating cycle—7 days on, 7 days off—so every other week I’m either working or completely off I pet sit because I genuinely love what I do — and animals love me back. Their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. When pets stay with me in my home, they become part of the family. I make sure every animal is well-fed, always has fresh water, and most importantly — plenty of playtime and affection. They get a safe, loving environment where they can relax and feel right at home. When I care for pets in your home, I follow all instructions to the letter — from feeding and medication routines to special care details. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Respecting your space and your pet’s routine is always a priority. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them, your pet gets the same thing: love, attention, and top-notch care.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Duplex
Carla was an attentive sitter for our cat. She was punctual gave thorough care and was able to look after our kitty at the last minute when we had a death in the family that took us out of town. Our cat warmed up to her immediately. She even cleaned the food bowls and picked up mail and packages. I highly recommend Carla for your pet sitting needs.

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.
