“Courtney was the best pet sitter ever! This was my first time booking with her, and she completely exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, sending frequent updates, tons of pictures, and even offering FaceTime calls so I could check in on my boys. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She truly went above and beyond throughout their stay. She was an excellent problem solver whenever something came up and handled everything with such kindness and enthusiasm. My boys absolutely adored her energy, and it was obvious they felt comfortable and loved. She even surprised them with treats, which they are obsessed with! I came home to two very happy cats, and I know they can't wait to see her again. I will definitely be booking with her in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely amazing pet sitter!”
“I wanted Day to spend some time with my dogs prior to an extended dog sit. My GSD likes to jump on people who enter the house and gets very excited. Day took charge and let Mira know to get off and waited for her to calm down before proceeding. Both dogs have specific needs ranging from sensitive stomach issues to elderly care issues. Day got to spend time with the dogs while I left them alone to get acquainted. The visit went well. Dogs were snuggled up on the couch with Day upon my return.”
“Tess did an amazing job sitting for our pups. Punctual, very communicative, and most importantly our dogs were tuckered out at the end of the day. Will definitely hire again, A++ reliable sitter!”
About: I have always had a deep love and affection for animals, and I am lucky enough to have three fur babies of my own. As a pet owner, I understand the importance of finding someone reliable and trustworthy to care for our furry friends while we are away. That's why I am excited to offer my services as a pet sitter. I promise to treat your pets with the same love and care that I give to my own dogs, and will make sure that they are happy and comfortable while in my care. Whether it's walking, feeding, or just providing some extra TLC, I am dedicated to making sure that your pets are well taken care of. If you are in need of a responsible and caring pet sitter, I would love the opportunity to be of service. My husband and I both work from home so we are able to provide bathroom breaks, cuddles and attention all day long for our fur guests. For drop in visits we can come during our lunch hour and right after work! I am able to provide food, medications, love, cuddles, time outside, play time, and make sure they are taken care of to the fullest extent during their visit with my family.
“Zeel was great! She played with my cats, cleaned up their messes, communicated with me each day while we were away, and sent photos! I would absolutely book with her again in the future!”
About: Dogs have been an integral component of my family since my early childhood. We have consistently taken in puppies and dedicated our time and effort to training them into well-behaved companions. From fundamental obedience training to advanced commands, I have accumulated extensive experience in assisting my family with their dog training and care. I firmly believe that dogs are integral members of the family and should be cherished and provided with daily love and attention. My passion for dogs extends to offering reliable and trustworthy dog walking services. I am flexible in my schedule and can accommodate your needs. Currently, I am a homemaker, which would allow me ample time to walk your fur babies. My schedule permits walks or drop-in visits between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM on weekdays. Rest assured that I will treat your fur babies as my own. From leisurely walks to outdoor play, refreshing water breaks, and delectable treats, your furry friends will undoubtedly receive the utmost care and attention. Trust me, your pups will wag their tails with joy!
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 5 year old poochon of my own. Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Whether it’s overnight care, house sitting, drop-ins, or walks, I’ll make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, affection, and care while you’re away. I am currently in an online grad school program, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Because I complete most of my coursework from home, I have the ability to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. As a dog owner myself, pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I believe pets are happiest when their routine stays consistent, so I do my best to follow each owner’s care instructions closely. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medications, or simply spending quality time together, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home while providing owners with peace of mind.
“We would highly recommend Chelsea! We made last minute plans and she was able to accommodate our schedule. I’m (ridiculously) protective of my dog and was nervous about having someone in to care for him. Chelsea put my mind at ease immediately. She was professional, very compassionate, and has a lot of experience with dogs of all temperaments. I enjoyed her frequent updates and photos, I could see that our dog was being well cared for and had connected well with Chelsea. We will definitely use her again!!”

- 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.

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 .
