“Summer takes our dogs out for us every week and is so awesome with them!! She is so reliable and always on time, and always sends me photos and videos of them! I highly recommend her!!”
“She was phenomenal! Lady looked like she was enjoying herself and had some good exercise around the block. She took the time and care to pet and love on lady while looking after her. The walks were about 20 minutes and perfect for my dog. She followed everything to a T. Would love to have her again!”
“Brooklynn was great! She took care of my Holly girl, gave her lovings, fed her and gave her water, gave her treats, and took her out to potty. Also sent pictures of my girl while I was gone. Everything that I asked for. I’m impressed and will use her the next time.”
“Ellie was fantastic with my kitty. All visits were done timely and well. She’s a great caregiver and my kitty liked her. She sent photos and videos each visit. I’ll re-book Ellie again.”
“Angela was great to work with. Unfortunately she came along when we had to make the difficult decision to send our Princess across the Rainbow Bridge. Angela helped us give her lots of love the last few days. We would definitely recommend Angela.”
About: I have watched all kinds of breeds of dogs for about 7 years now for friends and family when they go out of town or on vacation. I currently work 7:30 to 4 during the week and work from home, I am available after work during the week, and on nights and weekends. I prefer to watch dogs at their owners houses rather than mine because it is easier on the animals to be in their own environment.
About: I am quite comfortable with all sizes of dogs, from small to big. I have a special love for the big guys! I would be comfortable with giving ear or eye medication, but would want to make sure your pet feels safe enough with me to give oral medication. I love to go for walks, and would be thrilled to have your loved one join me! I am a full time nursing student and would love to fit your pet into my schedule! I would be able to stop in to check on your loved one or take them on a walk primarily on the weekends. If you need care during the week, it would be late afternoon/evening when I can be with them. If you need a early morning check in, let me know! I'd be happy to try and work something out with you. Comfortability for you and your pet are my main priority. I would love to meet and learn more about them prior to our first service! This is to ease not only your pet but also make sure I am a good fit for you both. I am happy to hang out at your home and play with their favorite toys and give them their favorite treats.
“We just got home now and saw some goodies Brandy left for Pepper and I. We appreciate how much she takes care of Pepper and enjoys being with him even if it’s just for check-ins! Would recommend her and trust her to be in our home and be with our baby.”
About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need. Currently my little 9 y/o Yorkie, Ellie May is my whole world, not sure how I'd survive without her so I deeply understand the concern of leaving your babies in someone else's care! My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
“Taylor was amazing and took care of our Nnedi while we were out with drop in visits, sending us great updates and pictures. Will definitely go with Taylor again in the future!”
About: I have plenty of pet experiencing having had a dog in the household for 20 years. I also have a knowledge of many animals as I am a volunteer at an animal shelter and a foster parent to both dogs and cats. I would love the chance to love your dogs or cats like my own while you are away. My home offers nearly 2 acres of fully fenced yard, giving dogs plenty of space to run, explore, and enjoy the outdoors safely. In addition to the yard, your pet will have access to a separate, fully finished pole barn living area where your pet will have its own sancuary —a quiet, cozy space designed for comfort and relaxation. For pets who need to be crated for safety or personal comfort, I have industrial-grade kennels located in a climate-controlled room with heating and air conditioning. This setup ensures they stay safe, secure, and comfortable at all times. The environment is calm and peaceful—perfect for animals to decompress and enjoy their stay without the stress of other animals or overstimulation of a crowded facility. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I hope to see your furry pup soon! Availability I currently work full-time, but I make pet care a priority throughout my day. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits in the mornings, during my lunch hour, and after work. I also offer flexible, open availability on weekends, perfect for extended care or more frequent check-ins. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break or some extra playtime, I’ll be there to make sure they’re happy and well cared for.

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
