About: Hi there! I have decades of animal care experience both personal and professional and look forward to providing your pet with stellar care, attention, and love (if they prefer). I take pet care seriously and will tend to your pet the same way I would my own. Though I made a career switch from working with animals in a professional capacity I remain knowledgeable and continue to petsit for others and care for my own pets. I have personally owned a variety of pets including cats and dogs. I have a soft spot for senior and special needs pets and also have a long-term chicken sitting position as well :) I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully meeting your pet soon! Im a lifelong pet owner and lover and have recently found myself with a much emptier and quiet home so I am hoping to fill that void with getting to spend time your pets :). I work 2 regular jobs but look forward to having fun with your pets in my spare time I will treat your pets as dearly as I'd treat my own, I have a childless quiet home with no other pets and many years of experience both professionally and personally to provide your pet with a safe and fun experience.
“Christina is awesome. She is very professional, punctual, seems to really love pets. She sent awesome photos of the pets. I will definitely use her again. Five stars!”
About: I have grown up with animals all my life and love to be in the company of them! My first job was working for my neighbor who trained k9 search and rescue dogs. She had many other types of dogs I got to work with as well. So I am very comforted around animals and enjoying getting to spend time with them! I have a full time job 8-4:30 so I am looking for some part time work I would be able to do after 4:30 and some weekends! I would be doing drop in visits, so whatever your expectations in your environment were for your pet, would of course be more than happy to follow.
About: I've lived with dogs off an on my whole life. I have experience walking, crating, training, feeding, mild grooming and administering meds. I love dogs and cats equally! I work most weekdays 8-4. My job has many days off plus school breaks so I'm available those days as well. My cats at home need insulin shots twice a day so I need to be able to go home when needed. I take this job very seriously knowing how much your pets mean to you is as much as mine mean to me. Safety and health are top priorities.
“Julia took such good care of my cats, and they warmed up to her right away. It is so nice to get the regular reports and pictures, didn’t have to worry about them at all and could just enjoy my vacation. I will definitely book Julia again when I leave town.”
“I was lucky that Morgan was able to drop in for an hour play visit on VERY short notice! Great communication with pictures and video of my pups having a great time. I’ve had Morgan a few times and have been happy with each visit.”
“Love love the in home visits with Rachel A. She also took the appointment on really short notice and went way beyond expectations!!! I’m am so happy and so is my boy buddy! Thank you so much Rachel! I think she loves my boy 🤗”
About: I have been working as a CNA with the majority of my time being focused on senior care for the past 2 years. I have 2 dogs at home and occasionally dog sit for my neighbors and family members. I am a college student with very flexible weekday timing! I have a bunch of random gaps in my day making it easy to stop by or a quick walk! I will not offer pet care in my home as my lease does not allow it. I am very dependable and caring towards all animals!
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I grew up with long haired dachshunds. I have also owned labs, a Dalmatian, huskies, you name it. I love big cuddly dogs the most, but will love up on the smallest to the biggest dog the same. I also have a big heart for senior pets. I am pretty flexible with my ability to do drop in care with cats and dogs. I have the ability to stop in during the days, evenings and weekends. I can do dog walking as well. I would love to do house sitting when my schedule allows. When I go to someone's home to care for their pet I will treat it as though it is my own pet, which is with the utmost care, kindness and love. I have a huge heart for all living beings including animals and humans. I am highly responsible, and responsive.
About: I’ve loved all sorts of animals since I was a young kid. From begging my parents for a puppy since I could speak, and going to friend’s houses who had pets, I always found a way to surround myself with animals. I have two dogs and two cats at home, who each have different energy levels. I love tending to the needs of all different ages and types of animals, whether that means going on a long walk or playing fetch, or giving some nice snuggles and pets for calmer animals. As a college student, I love to take a break from the daily grind and reconnect with other people and animals! I have a very flexible schedule, and can work with many different needs at this point in my life! I’m a student at UMD with a part time job and a flexible schedule! I am free sporadically through the day to check in with your furry friend, take a walk, and attune to their other needs as described by you. I am even more free in the evenings throughout the week to provide sitting for your animals in your home, or the same services I described earlier. Weekends are a great time to contact me too because I am frequently available to look after your pet(s). Ultimately, how I care for your pet depends on what you are most comfortable with and what the unique needs of your pet are. I have experience with crating my own dogs at home, and am more than comfortable doing that and taking any extra measures in your home that would make you feel even more comfortable leaving me with your pet! I also enjoy clean up spaces if that's something you're comfortable with.
About: I absolutely love all animals. I’ve cared for pets for over 10 years and have always loved being around them. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and basic care. I’m very active, patient, and loving, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. :) I am currently a college student, so I am home for most of the day. On weekdays, I may leave for short periods, only about an hour at a time for classes or errands. But of course I make sure all pets are checked on regularly and their routines are followed closely. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets in a safe and clean environment, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize each pet’s safety and well-being.
“Margaret “Greta” was awesome with our puppies. She kept us informed and up to date on all activities. She was prompt and timely with her drop in visits. We would highly recommend and use her services again.”
About: I have never lived without having both a dog and a cat in my house. Current residents include 2 dogs and 2 cats, but my family has fostered cats/kittens for about 8 years and dogs/puppies for about 5. I have taken care of neighbor's pets for both drop-in visits and extended care periods. I am currently in Graduate School and missing my animals so I would love to come visit yours!! I'm currently taking classes for my Graduate program on weekdays and I would love to use pet care as a break from homework in the evenings or weekends! I have experience with animals with many different personalities, and I have developed the skill to adjust my approach to each pet to match what they need from a caretaker. Trust between me, you as the owner, and your pet is incredibly important to me, so I am happy to learn how to best support each dog or cat's safety and happiness!

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.
