“Abby did a great job taking care of our two dogs, Milo and Lila, on the day of our wedding. We needed someone to drop in on them to let them outside and feed them, and she provided us with text updates for each of her visits which took the weight of worrying about them off our shoulders. We would 100% have Abby come watch our babies again.”
“Was a great person to have checking on my cat while I was gone. She gave daily updates along with photos. Always played for a bit and made sure her litter box and food was replenished. Will definitely recruit Gabrielle again when I leave town.”
About: I've owned animals ever since I could remember. When I was a baby we had a cat named Pookie Bear. Around the time I turned 5 my parents bought me a dog I named Pumpkin. Around 7 years ago Pookie Bear unfortunatly passed away, but knowing we needed a cat we bought 4 more! Void, Cuddles, Peeper and Ci-Ci. Then in 2019 Pumpkin had to be put down, but I couldnt live without a dog, so that summer I went and bought a German Shepherd puppy that I named Gizmo. Gizmo is now 3 years old and I couldnt imagine life without him. He is truly part of the family now. I travel for work on some weekends but am mostly always free. I will make sure to always have my calendar updated to show when I wont be availible. If I am checking up on your animal I will make sure to follow all directions given and also give the animal the best care that it needs!
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities and energy levels, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. I also volunteer at a local duck rescue, where I help care for and monitor birds, so I’m very attentive to animal behavior and wellbeing. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work a flexible accounting job. I have full availability on the weekends. I am open for dog walking or periodic check ins during the week. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and always follow each pet’s routine closely. I have lifelong experience with cats and dogs, and I also volunteer at a duck rescue, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals. I pay close attention to behavior, safety, and comfort, and I will treat your pet like my own.
About: I have loved taking care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I come from a household that taught me a lot of responsibility through taking care of our pets, so I understand the anxiety and trouble of trying to get an extra hand with your furry friends. I’m patient, understanding, and would love to extend the help. I’m currently working remote, which can leave me with a pretty open schedule some days. My availability varies but it is flexible and easy to work around with enough time in advance. I live with 2 dogs that don’t get along with other animals, so pet care at my home is not an option; however, walks and park trips are!
About: Hello, my name is Xavier. I'm an Airforce veteran of 12 years and counting! I've taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals since I was a child. I've always grown up with both large and small dogs. Currently, I'm an owner of 3 cats and 2 golden retrievers. In my military career, I've gotten the chance to train and work with military working dogs oversees! Animals have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, my days are built around feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and making sure my animals get plenty of attention and companionship. I’m used to caring for multiple pets and balancing their individual needs with my daily schedule. Currently, I work 3 days a week as an RN in the ICU. Not only is my background in healthcare, I also have a military background, so being dependable, organized, and consistent with routines comes naturally to me. Whether it’s daily walks, scheduled feedings, medications, potty breaks, or simply spending quality time together, I’m comfortable incorporating each pet’s specific routine into my day. I treat the pets in my care with the same attention and responsibility that I give my own. SAFETY - Safety is one of the number one priorities for your baby. - I always ensure the tables are cleared and nothing can be easily grabbed. - If your dog goes outside, they're always visualized and monitored. - If going for a walk, the route will always be provided. Schedule/Potty Breaks - Potty breaks will always be provided every hour or if the "ques" are given. - Feeding schedules will always be honored and asked about. Environment - Safety is always the number one priority. - They will never be taken to the dog park without the owners permission. - Comfortable and relaxing environment will always be provided. - If conducting a night stay in my home, a meet and greet will always be requested to ensure there is compatibility.
About: I have been helping my parents with their pets for the past 15 years. At the age of 13 I was given my own puppy, which helped me understand the responsibility that it takes to care for animals. I pride myself in being a trustworthy and caring person, who loves to spend time with animals. I currently am in school for nursing so my schedule varies. I try to find free time every week to get outside and move, which is why I am looking for the opportunity to spend time with animals while I do this. I have found that animals tend to respond better to calm and collected persons, so I pride myself on staying calm under pressure. Many of the families that I have pet sit for in the past complimented my patience and caring nature.
About: With my grandfather having owned a small farm, I was raised around animals and have continued to keep animals in my life ever since. I currently care for one small elderly dog. Whether your pet is energetic or a quiet companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a part of my every day life. I make sure that my dog gets daily exercise, socialization, and a safe home to be in. Caring for your pets fits seamlessly into what I already love doing for mine. Im a dog person at heart, but cat parents are welcome! I will ensure that your pets receive the loving care they deserve. Im more than happy to learn about your pet's routines if they have any. I'm available to maintain their structure, or to be the fun uncle that they look forward to seeing while parents are away.
“Bri was great with my two cats! ? She made time for a meet & greet beforehand and was so easy to work with. I will definitely be booking with her to look after my boys when I am gone on a few trips this summer!”
“Dee was very good taking care of our puppies and following all of our directions. She even helped with household things without us even asking. We will definitely book with her again !”
About: Truly love animals. I can provide excellent references that will confirm that your will be loved and your home will be safe while ai am there. I I will walk your dogs in my care and play with them outside. Animals sleep with me unless the owner would rather they were caged. If medicine is required I would be diligent to administer to your pet. During the day animals sit in my lap or lay on the couch beside me. Your pet will be very loved from the beginning! I'm retired and home the majority of the time. For trips to the bank or drive thru, dogs go with me and ride shotgun safely. We will follow your dogs daily routine and adhere to any rules and regulations about your pet and your home. Some dogs would rather not go on walks and I'm good with that.
“Greyson did a wonderful job watching my boy. I wasn't sure how open Ozzy would be to interacting with a new person but he really opened up to them. I loved reading the after visit notes, I would share them with the people I was with. Greyson was also really flexible when I had a family situation come up and had to move my trip earlier. I will definitely be booking them again the next time I need someone to watch Ozzy.”

I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Aidan! She is an attentive, kind, and organized dog sitter who I would recommend to anyone. She is wonderful with our puppy and is so good about following Dolly’s routine and paying lots of attention to her during her visits. She is reliable and responsible and we are so happy to have found her.
Payton has been a great connection to make for all of our pet needs. She has gone above and beyond to make sure our pets are well taken care of, she never does just the minimum. Our corgis love when she visits, and are way happier after seeing Payton midday. She communicates with us quickly, and sends us cute photos when she’s visiting. Can’t wait to continue using her!

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.

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 .
