About: I’ve been a dog owner for more than 15 years and grew up with dogs, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I genuinely love dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels, and I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic medication, senior dogs, puppies, and of course plenty of attention and snuggles. I’m also comfortable getting to know each dog’s individual routine, personality, and quirks. I know how much I worry about my own dog when I’m away, so I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and love I’d want someone to give mine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits in the evenings during the week and have more flexibility throughout the weekends. Whether your dog needs a good walk, a potty break, playtime, or just some extra attention and company, I’m happy to work with their normal routine and make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I know every dog is different, so I’ll take the time to learn what makes yours comfortable and happy. I’m also respectful of your home and will always make sure your pet is safe and everything is secure before I leave. And because I know how reassuring it is when someone else is caring for your dog, I’m happy to send photos and updates during every visit!
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was born! Small dogs, medium dogs, big dogs, I love them all. no matter the breed I love them. Neighbors, friends, and family have all called and trusted me with their babies. Over the night, weekends, walks, whatever is necessary I'm always ready and willing to love on your babies. I work 8-5:45 Monday through Friday, but on the weekends I'm pretty flexible. Reach out, l'd love to meet you and your pup! I work Monday-Friday 8am-5:45pm. Outside of those hours and on the weekends I am very flexible and able to take care of your pup at your home or mine! Although I live in an apartment and don't have a fenced in yard, I love to go on walks near my apartment and to the dog park at my apartment! I also have access to a property of a few acres with wide open green fields! Anywhere outdoors is my go to and I love fresh air. I have plenty of space in my apartment for your pup to lounge around or play...whatever they like! I will treat and love on them like my own!
“Janae was great, she checked in on our cats for a couple days while we were out of town. We did an initial visit before the booking just to meet her and see how our cats reacted, they instantly took to her which was a relief. She also very kindly pulled in our trash bins while we were away, we did not expect that but very much appreciated! We would definitely book with Janae again.”
“Ashley was a blessing for us and our beautiful fur babies! Not only was she there for us at the very last minute, but she went above and beyond to send us photos, keep us updated, and even left us a cute little personalized note. After we had a bad experience last time with a different Rover sitter, we were hesitant to go away for the night again, but Ashley has given us faith again that our puppies will be safe and loved while we are away. I can't wait to work with her again!”
About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and have helped train and raise large breeds and giant breeds. I have experience caring for blind dogs and elderly, medically-sensitive dogs. Although I don't have a dog right now (I have two cats), I'd love to care for your dog as if they were my own! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets Sundays, Mondays, Tuesday and Wednesdays. I am typically more limited on Thursdays, Fridays and most Saturdays, but I will make your pets a priority. Just let me know what you need! I enjoy playing with pets before providing their meals, as a vital part of their routine. In my own home, I currently have two cats and a small backyard. I can crate your pet, if needed, or provide a small room for their own space and privacy. I can also provide walks or other activities upon request, like short training exercises or practicing words they already know.
“Carolina and Jenerth were excellent cat sitters and would 100% book with them again! my cat is very shy, but they were able to get her out from under the bed and playing. They went the extra mile with her as well as with my home. Each day, I received thoughtful updates and adorable photos, which made me feel at ease. Highly recommend this them for anyone needing a compassionate and dedicated caregiver!”
“Liz was great watching our puppy!! This is our second time booking her. She took him on walks and sent so many pictures. She’s the only one that gives us true peace of mind when out of town. We will 100% book again, thank you liz!!!”
“Brittney did a wonderful job taking care of our cat, Ziggy. Brittney communicated well, with pictures and updates about Ziggy and our house (there were bad storms while we were away). Ziggy got lots of love, playtime, a clean litter box, and was well-fed everyday.”
About: I have pet sat on and off for years with family, staying over and learning specific routines of each animal. Each animals expects different things! I'm also highly active and flexible so if you have an energetic furry friend, we'd get along great! I am part-time employed and a online college student. My availability will be extremely flexible due to that! My times will vary across every two weeks when I receive my work schedule. Pets in my clients home will be treated exactly as they are used to, if that means walks on a leash or letting them out to roam their fenced yard then that's exactly what we will do. My goal is to keep your loved ones comfortable and that means following their routines, not mine.
“Nicole was absolutely outstanding. She checked on, fed, and loved on our two kitties while we were gone for 2 weeks. She took such good care of them! She went above and beyond - took in our packages, took up our trash, and even cleaned up kitty litter that the cats tracked through the house. Her communication was amazing and she sent regular updates and pictures. We felt so comfortable having Nicole at our home while we were gone. We will 1000% have Nicole take care of our animals again!”
“Thankyou Anne for taking care of my sweet babies Cooper and Ollie. I love that you sent me so many pictures, I can tell that the boys loved you, and were probably so glad to see a familiar face. I will definitely use you again. Thankyou again so much!!”
“I wish I could give Cassidy TEN stars! She was extremely attentive to every detail, sent video updates each time she visited, and the dogs LOVED her! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fern Creek
Caisey was both professional and friendly! She really took the time to get to know my cat and made sure to accommodate care to her level of comfort. She was reliable, communicative, and overall a really great pet sitter! It was our first time leaving our fur baby for longer than a couple of days - Caisey was very understanding and sent TONS of photos throughout the care experience. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing an invested pet sitter!

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 .
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 , 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 .
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.
