“Laura was our first Rover pet sitter, and we’ll definitely book her again. She checked in on our cat every other day for 10 days, provided updates after each visit, cleaned up any messes, and took time to play with Aubergine. Booking and coordinating logistics with her was also very easy. Highly recommend!”

About: I have experience and want to take care of dog after sitting my friend’s one for months. My boyfriend recently get a cat in Texas, I also take care of the cat when I’m in Texas.

About: I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors animals since middle school but began taking it more seriously around 13-14. I’ve animal sat elderly dogs with special needs, puppies, and mostly small dogs! But I’ve also happily watched cats, rodents, birds, and fish so all animal friends are welcome! Excited to meet you and your best friends. I love animals and honestly any excuse to meet new ones is very exciting. I can always work Sundays and Fridays and I have time Tuesday and wednesday evenings to check in on them when needed or go on a little walk. My cat is fed 3 times a day for a total of 2/3 cup of food, he has a play routine before bed, is let on the balcony for fresh air with his harness and a line connected to the door so he cannot get to the edge of the concrete. He takes his flea meds every month, and goes to the vet every 6 for a little check in as he’s on a small weight loss journey. I work 6-8hrs a day 5 days a week but luckily he has a a cat roommate to nap and play with while I’m gone
“Katie was amazing with my cat while I was on vacation! My cat absolutely loved her, and I felt so comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of. Katie visited twice a day, made sure she had fresh food and water, cleaned her litter box, played with her, and gave her plenty of attention and love. She also sent me updated photos every day, which I really appreciated and helped give me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely hire Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Megan did a fantastic job. My kitties are very shy but she had them coming around after a few days. She was always on time and good about reporting back to me. I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. I will use her again when I need someone to care for my kitties.”

“She did such an amazing job taking care of my dog! Not only did she make sure my pup got a great walk, but she also spent plenty of time playing with her and giving her extra attention. Receiving the photo updates was the best part of my day. She’s super reliable, friendly, and truly loves animals. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: I love all animals. I am taking dogs or cats to stay overnight. I work from home and live in a house with a small fenced yard. I have a small cat that has grown up with a dog and a small puppy. I live in a nice neighborhood for dog walks and I do need the exercise myself. Just bring the toys and the crate, and the food and your dog will have a great stay with me! I can also take cats in if I have no other dogs. There might be 1 or 2 animals at a time in my house. Ask me any questions! I look forward to meeting your pet. I work full time at home from 8 am to 5 pm. I work Monday through Friday. I do not work on the weekends. Thanks! I have a fenced in yard. I do prefer that the dog stays in a crate overnight he can accommodate other arrangements on a case by case basis. I am currently working full time from home. I wake up around 7 am and go to bed between 11 and 12. I can take the dog out during lunch. I have a fenced in yard but do not leave animals alone outside. My house is pretty safe. I keep the animals in sight at all time but usually let cats roam friendly. Dogs stay downstairs.
“Sierra was an amazing sitter! My cat, who is normally terrified of people, came out of hiding to hang out with her! I was so frazzled during my trip, but Sierra took care of my animals very well and it helped me relax a little. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I've grown up around dogs my entire life, both big & small. They're like family to me, which is why mine thinks she's a lap dog at 80lbs! Plenty of love to give your pup! There's also a good size dog park for them to play! If you're pup is the lazy type, we can do that too.....Netflix it is. Your pup will be given tons of love from me & you'll be given tons of updates (if you want). My pup takes medicine daily, so giving medication is not a problem for me either. You won't be disappointed, neither will your pup, if you let him or her spend time with Riley & me. Good luck on your search. Hope to hear from you soon!
“I’m so glad we went with Lizeth! She dropped in and checked on our two cats while we were away for a weekend trip. It was a last minute ask, and she pulled through! Even coming the day before to meet our littles. She has 4 cats of her own and I could tell she was comfortable with ours. Would recommend working with her and would hire again. ☺️”

“Very professional and great with our dogs. She’s also very confident around our dogs, which is very important to us, because we have two active breeds. We definitely recommend Frances for all Rover services 👍.”

“Rory was great with my two small pups, and they're the skittish type! She was real sweet wuth them, and jept me in the loop through out the visits. I'll definitely be using her again <3”

About: Hello there! My name is Sofía, and I can’t wait to care of your pet! Here are some things you should know about me : I have one dog living with me. I have volunteered at animal shelters, wildlife rescue facilities, and animal therapy organizations. When volunteering at shelters, I bathed dogs, cleaned up their poop, played with, and walked them as well as played with cats. Additionally, I enjoy outdoor activities very much, so I am definitely in shape to walk your dogs and play with them. I hope I can be of service to you and your dog(s).

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.
