“Abigail helped us out last minute due to a last minute cancellation. She was punctual and responsive. Dobby was happy to see her and we would definitely hire her again!”
“This was the first time we had McKenzie care for our senior dog, and we couldn't have been more pleased! Everything went extremely well while we were away. Would highly recommend and would definitely use her again! Thank you McKenzie!!”
“Sarah was punctual and took wonderful care of Penny and Pepper (aka pippa). She put my mind at ease with regular updates and snapshots which I loved! I definitely recommend her and plan to book with her again.”
“Gail is a loving and conscientious sitter. This was my first time using Rover and I was feeling quite a lot of anxiety about leaving my cat with a stranger. But Gail came over for a meet and greet and Charley took to her very quickly. Gail is trustworthy and made me feel very comfortable with leaving my Charley in her hands. She sent multiple daily pictures and updates, spent time playing g and loving up on her and Charley was fine and happy when I came home.”

About: Hi, my name is Taylor. I’m a 23 year old nurse who works evenings at a rehab unit. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have a 6 month old very friendly, gentle and kind German Shepherd who I have trained on my own. Since I have most mornings off, I thought I could use my free time playing with other dogs, feeding, walking or as desired. Will runwith dogs if they enjoy jogging. Love grooming animals. Also if wanted more puppy/dog interactions, my Shepherd could go for walks as well or play in the yard for socialization or energy exertion. I am good with all dogs, all shapes and sizes and I’m strong for my size so bring on the big dogs who like to pull or jump. Excited to meet you and your furry friends!
About: Experience with senior dogs, difficult cats, and hyper young ones who need that special one on one attention. Having cared for a dog with cancer, I am happy to do any extra care necessary for special cases. I have a very flexible hybrid schedule, which means I can work from your home and provide your pal with around the day attention and breaks. I have a young cat at home and have experience with dogs that are prone to bolting. I am neat and will always attend to your house and pet like it is my own.
“Another excellent visit Marc is always on time and treat my pets like his own. One of my Shetland dog is very nervous around people but Marc has won her over with kindness and patience. Can’t say enough about his service.”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Forestdale stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
