About: We’ve been pet people our whole lives! We’ve completed a dog CPR class and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. We treat every pet like family and provide loving, dependable care you can trust. Andrew is currently active duty Air Force. I usually work Monday-Friday 8-4, but my schedule is pretty flexible and I can make a visit during the day if needed. Amanda is an RN and works from home during the week. We can handle feedings, walks, or simply spend time with your pet so they have plenty of companionship. We understand that accidents happen, and we’re more than happy to clean up after them.
About: From training four puppies from birth to senior citizenship, I've always loved dogs and they seem drawn to me. I want you to enjoy your vacation while your fur baby is being loved and having fun in their home away from home. Experienced with specialty diets, medication dispensing and senior dog care. SAHM with three dog-loving children who are at school on weekdays. School routine starts around 6:30-7 a.m. and kids are gone by 8:30. I will take your fur baby outside for supervised morning, mid day, afternoon, late afternoon and evenings multiple times for exercise, walks, play time and potty breaks. I have a full privacy fence on a 3/4 acre lot, plenty of yard to run and play and take walks. If requested, I can come to your home multiple times a day for services needed such as potty breaks, walks, play-time, etc.
About: I own & sit for many years. I’m open to elderly pets. Animals are truly my passion! I understand that everyone needs a vacation from time to time and I’m here to secure the pet sitter option. I work part time so I have plenty of time for drop in and walks! Open to dogs & cats no matter how large or small. I have 3 German shepherds and they are complete opposites. I understand the need & wants from a dog that likes to sleep and occasionally pet and one that has enough energy to play sunrise and way past bedtime.
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have been dog sitting for over 5 years. I currently have a rescue dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, trustworthy, and attentive caring for your pets. I’m very detail-oriented, love staying active with walks and playtime, and I’ll make sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow specific routines, administer basic care instructions, and give extra patience and attention to shy, anxious, or senior pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dog and staying active throughout the week. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so making time for their care is something I look forward to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, and I always keep the home clean and respectful. I also love sending updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. In my own home, pets would have a safe, calm, and loving environment with lots of supervision and attention. I understand every pet has different needs and personalities, so I always adjust my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and secure.

About: I have been a dog lover all of my life. My husband and I currently have 4 dogs ranging from a small breed all the up to a male German Sheppard. All of our dogs are rescues and it is our goal to give them the best life they never had before (to ensure they know love). Exercise, love, and treats are what it is all about! Your pet will be treated as if it one of my own. With love, attentiveness, kindness, and patience. I am retired from the Air Force and living out my dreams taking care of my 4 dogs. This means that I am available to take care of yours when needed. Every client will have a different idea of how they wish for their fur baby to be treated. For this reason, I will follow any directions that you leave for me regarding your pet. If your pet has dietary restrictions, please note this as I do enjoy giving Milk Bone brand treats out.

“Paw-some job as always! James has been my go to dog/house sitter for years even before becoming a registered sitter on rover. He really takes care of things as if they are his own, if not better! This time he came to feed our 4 dogs while we were out of town. He couldn’t find where the water dish was for our back yard so he filled one up just in case. I appreciate James so much and hope more people come to know him as the dependable person he is.”

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.
