About: As an animal lover, I’ve grown up with all sorts of critters for my entire life (dogs, cats, birds, and even a pot belly pig – oh my!). One day I’d like to have an animal sanctuary. My favorite thing is getting to know a pet and making them feel safe and comfortable while I’m taking care of them. Pet care is a daily part of my life already since I have a couple of senior fur babies at home! I have a flexible work schedule so I can always make sure that I’m a part of your pet’s day when I’m taking care of them. Trust is a big part of hiring a pet sitter. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow any instructions a pet parent gives me with walking, feeding, and behavior. I’ll make sure that every pet gets extra love while you’re away.
“Kali is amazing! I always know my cats will be checked on and taken care of well. My cats have warmed up to her which makes me so happy! I highly recommend her!”
“Jazmin is amazing. She had excellent communication before and after visits with my kitty. She took photos and wrote the most detailed and sweet notes after each stay. I knew my kitty was safe in her care which gives me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future! Thanks so much!”
“William was an awesome pet sitter! He was attentive and super nice with my kitties! He is a very passionate and caring sitter and I would recommend him to anyone.”
“Amber was super chill when I met her- I’m always hesitant to leave my cat and keys with someone I don’t really know, but Amber felt trustworthy. She did a good job taking care of my cat. She fulfilled all of my requests and sent photos, really glad someone was there to care my cat, Princess, while I was on holiday. Definitely will book again.”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable dog lover who enjoys staying active and spending time with pups of all kinds. I have a 7-year-old adopted dog, so I understand how important it is to trust someone caring for your pet. I also have experience pet sitting for friends and roommates and am comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m currently available on weekends and would love to help your dog get some fresh air, exercise, and plenty of attention. I’ll also send updates and photos during our walks so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in good hands!

Your dog’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I’ll follow your instructions, pay attention to their needs and behavior, and make sure they’re safe and happy throughout our time together.

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve raised a 2-month-old Maltese, meeting all her needs and getting her started on a consistent training schedule. I've also cared for a Shih Tzu–Poodle mix, potty trained him, and kept him active with daily walks and fun park adventures. A gentle sheepdog in my care enjoyed decompressing strolls, dog park playdates, beach time, and even relaxing bath sessions for a spa-like experience. Beyond dogs, I lovingly care for my own chickens and geese—providing enrichment, routine wellness checks, and a nurturing environment. I also have experience with cats, offering playful engagement, cozy cuddles, and respectful attention to their unique personalities. I’m patient, kind, and deeply attentive. I care for every pet as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less than genuine love and thoughtful care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a culinary student with a flexible hybrid schedule. I take online classes from home and only attend campus one time a week. My love for animals makes pet care a fulfilling and joyful part of my week, and I’m always happy to plan my schedule around giving pets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—to help them feel secure and cared for in your absence. I offer drop-in visits and overnight stays, giving pets the attention and companionship they need while maintaining the rhythm of their daily life. I treat each home with respect, keeping things clean and tidy, and make sure to provide updates so you feel connected and reassured while you're away.
“Tally was wonderful with my last-minute request to look in on my dog and take her for a walk when I needed to be away for most of the day and night. She took good care of my dog and took care to secure the house. I happily recommend Tally as a reliable pet care professional and I will use her services in the future if she is available.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and it’s something I truly enjoy. Friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me to feed, walk, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I worked at the humane society, so I have experience with various breeds and temperaments. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s high-energy playtime, gentle care for senior dogs, or helping reinforce basic training. I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time as a nanny, so I have plenty of time to be with your pet! I’m available on the weekends and Monday-Wednesday I own a home in Talmadge with a fully fenced yard, offering a safe and secure space for pets to play and relax. My quiet, secluded neighborhood is ideal for calm, enjoyable walks. I closely supervise all outdoor time and prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine so they feel right at home.

About: Lifelong family dog owner of both small dogs (dachshunds) and a large, high energy rescue mix. Former cat owner and long-time cat shelter volunteer & foster starting in high school and throughout college (@ Cal Poly Cat Shelter in SLO). I also have quite a bit of small animal experience with hamsters and fish of my own and having taken care of guinea pigs. I have been pet sitting since I was about 12 years old and have found that taking care of pets in their own homes (where they are most comfortable) and getting time to connect with animals is an important contributor to my own happiness and fulfillment. I'd love to help your family by providing safe and loving care for your animals! In my day-to-day life, I work as an in-home Behavioral Support Specialist all around San Diego. I have early mornings and most evenings/overnights available, and some mid-day flexibility as well (I know my schedule for the week ahead). I am available for weekend stays.

Savannah was so wonderful! She was very responsive, flexible with last minute changes and it was clear that out pet really enjoyed her! She also helped bring in packages while we were gone, and kept us updated on a few houshold items that came up during our trip. Would highly recommend, and will definetly be booking her again for our next trip!
Needed drop ins for my puppy and Dana was the best support. Dana became her new best friend whenever I was working. My puppy was engaged and excited whenever Dana came for a drop in, and I never had to worry what my puppy was doing when I left the house- Thanks Dana!
Anna took great care of my two kitties when I left town for the weekend. When she came to pick up the key I saw she was excited to take care of them which made me even more comfortable leaving them (for the first time with a pet sitter) with her. Will definitely be contacting her for future pet sitting. Thanks Anna!
Christine was amazing! She took great care of our two cats and kept us updated on them while we were gone. One of our cats has a medical need and she was more than capable of handling that and our young kitten with tons energy! I would recommend her to anyone. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!
She did such a great job taking care of my cat! She was caring, responsible, and very easy to communicate with. I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat, which meant so much to me. I really appreciated her help and would highly recommend her to other pet parents! 🐾❤️

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 .

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.
