“Sabrina was amazing!! This is our first time having a pet sitter come into our home, and she made us feel so comfortable. She was on top of it with all the questions and concerns with each animals schedule, (Food, water, medication, potty breaks, etc). Any changes in the daily plans she promptly let us know. She sent daily pictures which is always comforting to know your babies are safe and happy. We can’t wait for her to come back and watch our critters again!! :)”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had experience with both small and large dogs, and I understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to cuddles, feeding, and simply keeping them company, I genuinely enjoy making dogs feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I treat every dog as I would my own—with patience, attention, and plenty of love! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to provide attentive care throughout the day. I can easily work visits, walks, playtime, and check-ins into my schedule, and I have the flexibility to head over and spend time with your pup when they need it. My goal is to make pet care convenient for you while ensuring your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and adjust the pace to their needs. For drop-ins, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any other care. I treat your home with respect, ensure everything is secure when I leave, and provide photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I am a dog owner, looking to care for other dogs at my home! I have a very playful 2year old Labrador who would love to have company. Two is better than one. My wife and I would take care and keep an eye on your fur babies when you’re out for travel, short trips, vacaciones holidays or others occasions. I have a fenced yard for play and potty time. I also have a full house so you dog would never be alone because I work from home and so does my wife. We let our dogs roam free in the house.

About: Hello! I have always loved taking care of animals, I have pet sat recently for my cousin, I used to pet sit for my neighbor before I moved, I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was a kid, and I’m experienced with both cats and dogs! I do work, but I have days off, and I don’t always work all day, I’ll know my schedule ahead of time, so I’d be be transparent with my availability. I’m always off on weekends though! Message me about morning availabilities, I turned the morning option off just because I can’t do mornings on the days I work! Of course I’d talk to you about the pets routine, whether it be feeding or even bathroom times depending on your animal, and from there I’d make sure all the requirements are met! I’d play, and of course make sure I supervise your pet! I’ll make sure to follow any rules owners may have!

“Daniella did a great job watching our Goldendoodle while we were on vacation. After reading her reviews, I decided Daniella was a great fit for my anxious dog. Our first time booking with rover and overall it was an easy and stress free experience with Daniella.. She checked in on our dog once a day- She was always on time, communicated when needed, sent photos and followed our direction perfectly. We will be booking her again!”

“Sydney was prompt and kind. My puppy had an accident and went the extra mile of cleaning up after her. My girls can be a bit stubborn but she handled them with care and kindness. I’ve never used a pet sitter before for my dogs and this was a very positive experience with Sydney. If she is willing to watch my dogs again in the future I know my girls will learn to bond with Sydney!”

About: Since I was old enough to walk, animals have been a loving part of my life. Growing up in a household where pets were treated as family, taught me that every dog and cat has a unique personality and set of needs. I am particularly skilled at reinforcing consistent routines. If you are working on leash training or basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay,' I make sure to incorporate those into our walks so your progress doesn't stall. I am also experienced with senior care, understanding that sometimes a 'walk' is more about a slow sniff-around-the-block and some gentle companionship than a fast-paced walk. My professional life is uniquely flexible, which allows me to be a great anchor for an early morning walk or early afternoon walk. I am available Mon-Thurs 5am-7:30am and 3:30pm to 8:30pm. Friday, Saturday and Sundays I am available all day for those walks and check ins that are needed when errands outs are the priority. I will treat your home with the same level of respect I’d want for my own. My process is thorough: I double check that all doors are deadbolted, alarm systems are set, and water bowls are topped off before I leave. To keep you in the loop, I provide detailed Rover Cards after every visit. You’ll receive photos of our adventures, a map of our walk, and a summary of all 'business' handled. If a mess occurred while you were away, I handle the clean up thoroughly so you can come home to a fresh house and a happy, relaxed pet.

About: Hi, I’m Celeste! 🐾 I’m a friendly, passionate animal lover who has been working with animals since 2018. I started my career working at a boarding facility, where I cared for dogs and cats and handled their day-to-day needs, including feeding, administering medications, and providing plenty of exercise and enrichment through walks, fetch, swimming, and agility. As I gained experience, I moved into dog training and have worked with puppies through adult dogs of all breeds. I have experience teaching everything from basic obedience to advanced training. I’ve also worked in a veterinary hospital, giving me additional experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. I also offer basic grooming services upon request, including baths, blow-drying, nail trims, and ear cleaning. 🛁🐶 I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play, explore, and potty. I also have a separate room where your dog can relax, decompress, or be crated if that is part of their normal routine. Since I don’t currently have any pets of my own, your dog can enjoy a calm environment without having to share their space with other resident animals. 🧼 Clean & Safe Environment Your pet’s safety is my #1 priority! I sanitize my yard daily and use kennel-grade cleaning products throughout my home, crates, and yard to maintain a clean and sanitary environment for every pet in my care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, and I want you to feel confident knowing they are safe, comfortable, cared for, and treated like family while you’re away. ❤️🐾 I’m a stay at home mom looking to earn more income! I have always been around animals in my last jobs and this is a way to still do that while being home! I treat pets in my home as if they are mine. I follow the instructions for feedings provided by the owners. I have plenty water set out for the pets during play times or walks. I can do training sessions while your pets are here or offer grooming services for the departure.

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.
