“Emily was wonderful! She took great care of my dog while I was at work during the week. He's been having some problems with his eye and she was diligent in giving me updates and helping him any way she could. She even gave him a bath for me! Would give more than 5 stars if I could!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Sofia! She was amazing with our dogs, who absolutely adored her from the start. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Sofia kept us updated with photos and messages, giving us peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she has a genuine love for animals, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


About: I have cared for dogs and other pets all my life and know how important it is for our pets to have consistent, loving, and dependable care. I treat every pet in my care like a cherished family member. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and completely comfortable in their own home while you are away. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages and energy levels. I know that every pet has a personality, from puppies who need to release that extra energy to older dogs that need extra patience and attention. I have personal, hands-on experience caring for aging pets and those navigating complex health journeys, including cancer. I am fully comfortable administering oral medications (pills and liquids) with a gentle, patient touch. Puppy Patience & Guidance: While not a commercial trainer, I have successfully raised and trained multiple puppies over the decades using consistent, loving, and positive reinforcement. In-Home Comfort & Security: By focusing exclusively on house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks, I keep your pets in their familiar environment—minimizing stress and giving you total peace of mind. I look forward to helping you have peace of mind and giving your special pet the companionship, cuddles and play (or simple, calm routine) they need while you're away. My schedule is flexible so I am able to adapt to your pet’s routine. Whether they need early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight companionship, I have the time and dedication to make sure they get unhurried, attentive care every single day. I try to adjust my daily routine to mirror yours as closely as possible, keeping your pets on their familiar schedule for meals, play, and bedtime. Because I don't host pets in my home, my focus is entirely on keeping yours safe and comfortable in theirs. Your peace of mind and your pet’s safety are my absolute highest priorities. When you trust me with your home and your beloved pets, I take that responsibility seriously, ensuring a secure, stress-free experience from start to finish. Meet & Greets: Before any booking, I always meet with you and your pets in person. This ensures your pet feels comfortable with me, lets us review their unique routines, and allows us to establish your exact communication preferences. Meticulous Home Security: I am thorough when it comes to securing your home. You never have to worry: I double and triple check every door, lock, and gate before leaving your property. Consistent Communication & Photos: You will never be left wondering how your pet is doing. I send updates and photos with every single visit, keeping you fully in the loop so you can relax while you are away. Safety First on Every Walk & Visit: Decades of pet ownership mean I am always alert to surroundings, keeping dogs on a secure leash, monitoring for potential hazards, and giving your pets the calm, vigilant attention they deserve.
“McKenzie is wonderful and reliable! My two Chihuahuas love her. I would recommend her to anyone who loves updates, pics of their babies while out of town.”

“Uniqua did a great job caring for my Papillon, Marco. I feel she did everything that I requested of her. It is so comforting to know Marco is well cared for when I am away from home. I highly recommend her.”

About: • I’ve recently gained experience in dog boarding, ensuring a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for multiple dogs. • I’ve dog sat the same two dogs for one family consistently over three years, building trust with both pets and owners. • I provide reliable in-home care for animals including feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship. I currently work from home on my own schedule so I have more then enough time to play with the pups and give belly rubs to even the biggest of the bunch I have access to three wonderful dog parks available to me and my fur friends surrounded by fence so you don’t have to worry about anyone getting lost !
“Desiree did a wonderful job watching our two girls. One of which is very cautious of strangers. We will definitely be using her for dog sitting in the future and recommending to family and friends.”

“Ariana is great. She is always very respectful of my home and great with my dogs while I'm at work. It gives me peace of mind that they get a chance to go outside and get some playtime.”

About: I am very patient and caring. I have two dogs of my own that I love like children and would give anything for them. I am willing to give your pet the same care. I am a personal trainer so I make my own schedule and am willing to help you if anything comes up like an emergency and such. I am willing to protect your baby with my life just as I would mine. I love dogs and they deserve all the love in the world.

About: I have worked as a pet bather during winter break during my time in undergrad, and I truly loved being able to work with different breeds and sizes of dogs. For personal experience, dogs have always been a big part of my life since I was born! I didn’t grasp the concept of what it’s like to actually care for a dog until I was in elementary school but since then I’ve always cared for every dog I’ve had and every dog my family member has had. I’m currently on summer break from OT school, so I have more than enough time to care for your pets! I am available on the weekdays and weekends from 7a-3p, so feel free to reach out! I have two male Shih-tzu’s one is 5 and the other is turning 13! I love them very dearly! I ensure that they are up-kept with their grooming services, vaccinations, and fresh food and fresh water! They love car rides and walks from time to time when the weather isn’t too hot
“Haven is great with our dog Luna. She came at the time requested and Luna loved play with her! Haven sent us a picture and video of them playing. Highly recommend and we will definitely call her again.”

“Laurie was so awesome, she accepted my super last minute request and my baby got taken care of! She was extremely sweet and seemed to genuinely care about my dog! Will definitely rebook!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and needs. I have a 15-year-old pitbull, a 6-year-old chihuahua, and a 4-year-old shih tzu, so I’m very familiar with everything from senior care to high-energy small breeds. Caring for a senior dog has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of sticking to routines and monitoring comfort levels. I also have experience administering medication to my own dogs, so I’m comfortable following medication schedules and specific care instructions carefully and responsibly. Because I care for my own dogs every day, I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I treat every animal like family and provide loving, reliable, and detail-oriented care to ensure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already care for my own three dogs every day. I am a full-time college student, but most of my classes are remote, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my day around pet visits, walks, feeding schedules, and any special care needs. Since I spend a lot of time at home for school, I’m able to provide consistent attention, companionship, and supervision. I’m comfortable managing my time responsibly and making sure pets receive the care and routine they’re used to. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I intentionally build my schedule to ensure I can be dependable and present. For drop-in visits, I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking closely to their normal routine. During each visit, I provide feeding (if needed), fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. If medication is required, I carefully follow instructions and timing. I also make sure the space stays clean and secure before leaving. For walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and positive interaction. I adjust the pace and distance based on the dog’s age, energy level, and comfort — whether that’s a slower walk for seniors or a more active walk for high-energy dogs. I always ensure proper leash handling and awareness of surroundings. After every visit or walk, I provide updates and photos so owners feel informed and reassured. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have grown up in a house that always had animals in it, especially dogs and cats. I have a few clients that I have been watching houses for— for years, I believe in making connections with your clients pets so there is no worry or stress between the pet parent and pet! I have lots of open free time as I am a freelance artist that works from home! So, in other words, I have my availability mostly open just need to have time to schedule I would be more comfortable in house sitting than boarding animals but for my own pets they are always inside, free roaming, only going outside when the dogs need to go potty!

Adrianna has been extremely amazing. She communicates very well and ensures that’s she provides the best service possible. My apartment stays clean, my dog had a great routine, and I knew he was well taken care of. I’m going to miss her as she goes to school but can’t thank her enough.

- 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.
