“My husband and I have 2 sweet baby girls! One of them has severe anxiety with other people and the other will be your BFF! ? We decided to go the beach last minute with my in-laws. This was the longest we have ever left them. From the first moment I communicated with Amanda, she was very detailed and put my mind at ease about leaving my babies. She came for drop-in visits and stayed over time caring for and loving on our dogs! She sent pictures and videos at every visit and ensured they had fresh water and food. She worked so hard to reach out anxious Remi girl and to my amazement, actually got her kind of close, and Remi wasn't even barking. ❤️ When we arrived home from our trip, Amanda had left a daily report detailing every visit and left a super sweet personalized note to us and the girls. The most special touch of all was the little basket of treats and toys she had on the counter! ??We will definitely use book with her again! Your babies will be in great care of you decide to book with her as well!”
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, and while my parents are away I go over and house sit and take care of their dogs. I also watch my neighbors dogs while they are on vacation. I’m currently working part-time and will be finishing up my college semester. During summer I will have a lot of free time during mid-day to check in on your babies! My dogs are like household members so I treat them with respect and give them lots of love. I take them out, and take them for walks when needed and they love to go for drives (especially when it ends with pupcups.)
“Rebekah did a great job dropping in on our pups while we were away! They loved her as soon as they met her! She is very responsible and trustworthy! We will definitely use her again when traveling!”

Pet care is my daily cuddle and check routine, woven gently into every morning and evening with love and attention. Thank you for the opportunity. I provide gentle, attentive care for pets in clients homes daily. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Thank you!
About: I’ve been walking dogs and dog sitting for family and friends since I was 10. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have experience in the clinic. I have been held responsible for walking, feeding, watering, and grooming pets in the past. I am currently working in the er 2-3 days a week. I work 12 hour shifts and will put unavailable unless the client approves me checking in before and after work. I am a college student but my classes are online so I am easily flexible and can complete my school anytime and anywhere. When pet sitting I like to stick to a routine the dog is familiar with as it is already stressful for them when their family is gone. I will play with them and take them on walks if that is something your dog enjoys.
About: I’m caring, reliable and honest. I enjoy pets, exercise and am looking to get a small dog of my own. I’ve owned poodles in the past. I work very part time doing DoorDash. I’m flexible as the when I can come and take care of your pet. I cook a lot and pet sitting fits well into my schedule. I read instructions the owners gave. I’ll follow them. I’ll respect your home, m take good care of your pet and follow any rules.
About: I'm a responsible and compassionate pet sitter with hands-on experience working at an animal rescue in Odessa, Florida, caring for pets of all backgrounds. As a Maine Coon owner, I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving environment. My military experience has instilled a strong sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or special care, I'll treat them like family while giving you peace of mind. **I am unable to offer boarding in my own home and I am unable to stay overnight at the moment** Pet care is a natural fit for my lifestyle and one of my passions! I’m currently doing a remote internship while serving Active Duty, with plans to transition into the Reserves in May. This flexibility allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for pets, whether it’s dropping in for visits, ensuring they’re well-fed and loved, or providing companionship while their humans are away. I’m also planning to start my own pet-sitting company, so every opportunity to care for your furry family members is not only a joy but also part of building my dream! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I take the time to understand your pet’s unique needs and routines to ensure they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. I’m diligent about following your instructions, whether it’s feeding schedules, administering medications, or playtime preferences. I also ensure your home is treated with the utmost respect—leaving it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I believe in open communication, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving hands.
“AnaMaria has been coming by to play with our golden retriever while we are at work and she has been absolutely amazing!! She always sends plenty of photos and updates. Our dog is very high energy and she is so good with him and even brought over a tennis ball for him. Would highly recommend AnaMaria to care for your fur babies!”
“Kaitlyn was very patient with my dogs. She responded in a timely manner and made a huge effort in attending to their needs. I really appreciated her persistence and willingness to work with my dogs:)”
“Jennifer was excellent with my babies. Even in the cold single digit weather she came to the house twice for feedings and exercise for my three dogs and my daughters two visiting dogs. Because a short black out tripped the water flow off she had to find the valve in the garage and turn it on. The doggies all seemed to have had a good time as that they were not stressed when we arrived home that evening. I'm looking forward to more dog/house sitting in the future.”

“First time using Rover. Plans for friends to keep L'il Man fell through at last minute, and Amy responded to request SO quickly. She came the next day for a meet and greet...L'il Man LOVED her immediately. While on our trip, received daily pics both during inside play and outside play. Was very reassured the whole time. Will definitely request Amy again and will refer her and Rover to anyone needing special attention for their 4-legged loved ones.”
“I’m so grateful for the care Kanese gave my dog while we were away for a week. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my pup’s well being. I loved getting photo updates and could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Elkmont 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.

- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
