“Sierra was fantastic! She provided excellent narrative updates on her visits and was responsive via text and made sure my baby was taken care of while I was gone. I loved seeing the picture and video updates while I was out, it helped ease the anxiety of being away from home. I appreciate her being there for my sweet little girl.”
“Our family really appreciated the care and professionalism Olivia provided. Our cats have never been happier, even the scaredy cat! We would definitely welcome her back to our home.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life. From my own dogs as a child to helping friends and neighbors take care of theirs, I have over 40 years of experience, taking care of fur babies. Currently, I have a bernadoodle, a boxer, and a pug. We’ve had many boxers over the years. I’ve taken care of puppies all the way through senior dogs. I’m comfortable giving medication’s and taking care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I am a teacher. The dogs are alone between 6 and 7 hours on a weekday. I typically leave food down, but this can be modified if need be. I have close to an acre fenced in backyard so there is room for them to run and play. The dogs are never outside unattended. Our dogs sleep with us. Taking care of an extra pet or a few extras is no problem at all! I have almost an acre yard that can be gated off into 2 separate yards. If your baby is nervous we can give them their own space to play and run.I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. Our dogs are very gentle and different sizes. When your dog is on our care we will make sure it is safe and feels comfortable. I have space to keep dogs separate if needed. My goal is to welcome your pet into our pack and treat them like family!
About: I have, alongside owning pets, cared for many within and outside of my family for 6 years now. I know to care for dogs, cats, big and small. I can only do it mostly on weekends or early mornings on any other day. My days off from my regular job are Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday so if you need anything on those days then I am your gal! We take care of many pets in our home. We have 4 cats, and 5 dogs, one including a standard poodle but they have plenty of room in and outside of the house so they can have fun and roam!

About: I have hands on pet care experience from working in doggy daycare & being a dog mom myself! I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, including puppy care, basic training & those who need a little extra help getting around these days. I'm also comfortable administering medications as directed, but I don't currently administer insulin. While house sitting, I'm happy to help with light housekeeping, tidying up, and little extras like bringing in mail or watering plants at a small extra charge. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and loved while keeping your home tidy! I work Monday - Friday until 4:30pm, so I'm generally available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I'm happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for their pets' needs. I'm also open to house sitting and being flexible to the pets' schedule while I'm in home as well! Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities! I follow your care instructions, maintain your pet's normal routine, and keep doors, gates, and outdoor areas secure. I'll send regular updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I also have a 1 yr old Bernese Mtn Dog who may be able to keep your pup company with your permission and only if it's a good fit for both dogs. I treat your home with respect and strive to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable!

“Marianne was absolutely delightful at our meet and greet, and the gang 🐾 loved her from the start! The pics each visit felt very personal, and I knew my babies were in good hands!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my family since I was a little girl, and caring for them has always been something close to my heart. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed helping neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family members with dog sitting and dog walking. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I would make it a priority in my daily and weekly routine. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I would plan my schedule around each pet’s individual needs to ensure they receive dependable, compassionate care and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I always make sure pets are comfortable and safe in my home and also in their home. I make to follow their regular routines for walking, feeding, playing and any other instructions their families provide. I know it’s hard for pets to be away from their families so it is my priority to give them the attention and love they need. Every pet gets treated like family so I want families to know their pet is in the hands of someone who is friendly, caring and dependable.
“Angie did a great job! We came back from out of town to a happy cat. It's difficult with our cat because he has to have a pill administered but Angie was able to! She's also a very professional communicator and makes you feel comfortable with her visiting every step of the way. Thank you Angie!”
About: I love all animals as long as they have 4 legs. I will take care of your babies as you have done. I will always keep you in contact with how your babies are doing and send you pictures anytime you need them. I have a flexible available schedule. I just ask for a notice as soon as possible so that I can be available for you. I love animals I love dogs and cats. I am currently going to school which is all online this makes my schedule open. I have baby gates around my house so that if my dogs start becoming very mean towards the cats, the cats have a place to run. I always make sure to stay calm with the dogs in any situation. I personally turn music on and it's mainly calm sleepy music like Enya or sleep jazz music on YouTube.
“DeVonna did a great job with our pups! She was timely and communicated well. We did a meet and greet prior to our drop in and both dogs loved her, she was also very accommodating in working out a 2 hour stay which was best for our schedule that day. We will be booking again!”

I would love to meet for your furry friend! Pet care is such a huge part of my life. Between my zoo of animals and the ones I get to meet through rover it is a full time job. I have never had a job I loved more! I have 3 cats and 1 dog who I love very much! All of them are spoiled rotten. My cats are indoor and my pitbull-dachshund mix comes and goes inside/outside as he pleases! Every pet is different and every household operates differently, so I am willing and ready to care for your pet however you may prefer!

“Nico is truly a pet whisperer. She has such a gentle, intuitive way with animals, and my senior dog, Pen Pen, absolutely adores her. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after and takes the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. She’s also incredibly respectful of my home and consistently goes above and beyond to provide exceptional care. Knowing Pen Pen is with someone so attentive and compassionate gives me complete peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend Nico to anyone looking for reliable, loving, and thoughtful care for their pets—especially senior dogs who may need a little extra patience and attention.”

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.
