“Daniela was so great with communicating at each of her visits. All the cats and dog made friends with her right away. Will hopefully get to use her any time we need sitter for our pets. 10/10!”

About: I have many years of experience with dogs. I have babysat and cared for friends dogs and also for my own dog. I recently adopted a cat so I also have a little over a year of experience with looking over cats. I have lots of free time to be able to play and care for your pets. I don’t have many distractions during the day meaning my full attention will be caring for your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and a pretty spacious home. There is lots of room for my cat to roam around. He even has his own room and his own bathroom. There isn’t a lot of traffic around my neighborhood so I like to let my cat outside on a leash so he can feel the sun on his face.
“Lauren was consistent with our twice a day drop-ins even after getting a huge amount of snow on day 2 of checking in on my 2 kitties! She took time to make sure their litter was clean, they were fed, and played with them. The report card photos were a treat we looked forward to after every visit! Will definitely book her again in the future.”

About: Though I'm relatively new to the *professional* pet care world, I've pet- and house-sat countless times for friends and family. From dogs and cats to lizards and rats, I've taken care of most types of pets, and love learning about animals of all sorts. I'll put in the time to learn your specific pets' needs and wants to ensure they get the best care possible. I've worked with children with special needs, people with dementia, and early-morning commuters, so I've got more than enough patience to help even the grumpiest of cats take their medicine, get their exercise, whatever they need to stay happy and healthy while you're away. I'm a self-employed artist, so my work comes with me wherever I go in the form of a sketchbook, pen case, phone, and planner. Taking care of your furry (or scaly, or feathered!) family fits right in to my workflow. I have my own pets at home, a ferret named Onion and a tabby named Bean. I've traveled long distances with both of them, so I am well trained at keeping an eye out for health and safety in stressful times. Don't worry though, they'll be staying put, cozy at home with my partner for the foreseeable future.
About: I’m a true animal lover! I’ve cared for furry family my entire life. A house is not a home for us without them. I take the time to get to know clients wishes & customize each visit according to each guest’s desire. If you prefer couch over doggy bed, they get the couch. If you don’t want them on your couch at home, then that’s off limits. I have been a dog trainer in the past, so I can help with that too while your furry family is entrusted to my care. We live on a small farm with two 6’ high fenced play areas with pet pools & toys. Your furry family member is my first priority! This is my full time job. I’m home most of the day, each & every day. If they need lots of extra playtime each day, I’m happy to oblige! Their happiness makes me happy. 😊 Your furry family becomes our furry family. I treat them as our special guests while here & cater to their individual needs. I like to think it’s their vacation time as well while you’re on your vacation; all while following the same guidelines you have established in your home. I follow your rules whether caring for your pets in my home or yours. I have 2 large 6’ high fenced play areas. We play catch, frisbee, & have a growing number of obstacles to entertain guests. Please let me know what I can do to make their visit most enjoyable. 💞🐶🐈🐎💞
About: Good Morning! I am Janiya and I’m excited to introduce myself! As an animal science graduate student, my journey with dogs began at a young age. I have been caring for my own dogs since I was just 10 years old, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My academic background in animal science has equipped me with a solid foundation in animal care, health, and behavior. Through my coursework, I have gained insights into various aspects of veterinary medicine, nutrition, and training techniques. This knowledge allows me to provide not only basic care but also specialized attention tailored to each dog's unique requirements. In addition to my studies, I actively engage in clinical hours at a local veterinary clinic under the guidance of a certified veterinarian and vet tech. This hands on experience is invaluable. It has allowed me to observe and participate in real-world scenarios involving pet health care. From administering medications to understanding common health issues, this practical exposure enhances my ability to recognize signs of distress or illness in dogs while I am sitting or walking them. I’m currently working during the week so I’m available currently on the weekends anytime and will update my hours if need be due to obtaining a set schedule for clinical hours. I believe establishing a consistent daily routine is crucial for both dogs. This includes regular feeding times, exercise, and bathroom breaks. For my husky, who is energetic and playful, I ensure she gets at least an hour of vigorous exercise each day. This includes walks, runs, or playtime in the yard. My cockapoo also enjoys playtime but requires slightly less intense activity due to his smaller size and older age. I ensure that my home environment is safe for both dogs by removing hazardous items such as toxic plants or small objects they could swallow inside and outside. Additionally, I use baby gates if necessary to restrict access to certain areas of the house where they might get into trouble. I have learned by following these steps consistently in caring for my husky and cockapoo at home, and applying similar principles when caring for clients' pets, I’ll create a nurturing environment that supports their health and happiness.
About: I’ve always been very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I previously worked as a pet sitter caring for a home with 7 cats and understand how important routine, cleanliness, patience, and attention are for pets while their owners are away. I also volunteer with Catsbury Park cat rescue and currently care for 6 cats of my own, so I have experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I already care for multiple cats of my own every day. I’m currently available Wednesday evenings, Thursdays, and Fridays for drop-in visits and pet sitting. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets are fed, comfortable, and given attention while their owners are away. I always prioritize creating a calm, safe, and clean environment for every pet I care for. I understand how important routines are for animals, especially cats, and I carefully follow feeding instructions, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and any special care requests. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and focus on making pets feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: 🏆 20+ yrs Experience !! BIG FENCED IN YARD !! *** SPECIALIZE IN LONG STAYS *** I love and respect each animal for who they are as I do people. I am confident when caring for any pet that we will respect and understand one another, I gage their demeanor and temperament and than go from there. I keep a calm and clean (but lived in) home and I utilize my big fenced in yard to it's fullest!! I love playing catch with the dogs and the cats I let them do their thing whether it's cuddling on the couch or if they are skiddish or shy I let them be until they are comfortable enough to be approached or to approach me. I also can give baths and trim nails! Need a sitter who has a big heart and a big yard? Call me! I have a semi flexible work schedule and I'm 10 mins from my house. I pop in and out during work hours and I'm home everyday and night 24/7 Cameras inside and out to keep an eye on the woof pack!! I am diligent on our daily schedule and bc of this the pups usually seem to get it after a day or two tops. I think sticking to a regimented schedule calms them almost immediately. Once they all have there “spot” where they sleep and eat the anxiety level instantly drops a few levels for every one of them. I have a large secure fenced in yard very open for running, playing catch or Frisbee, I can brush or bath any pet for you and I also offer nail trimming. Big bowls of fresh FILTERED water inside and out changed several times a day. I am diligent on dietary restrictions. Every day i make one on one time for each and every pup, they really love and appreciate it! i totally get that they need that time especially before bed. (I tuck them all in)
About: I love dogs and have volunteered at the local shelter for the past 6 years...walking, feeding, cleaning cages of dogs and cats. I have owned several dogs over the years...all rescues and mixed bully breeds. I am currently retired so I have plenty of time to spend time taking care of your fur-babies. My home is pet friendly and I enjoy taking your pet for walks. I have a fenced yard. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in my bed. I enjoy taking dogs for walks and there are several walking paths in my neighborhood.
“Marissa has been wonderful caring for our two cats Chonk and Chowder! She is very reliable and updates you on her visits. This is our third year with Marissa and we feel very confident when she visits and know that our kitties are well taken care of! Thank you so much Marissa:)”


About: As a kid, I was the reason my parents got a dog that I ended up loving and taking care of during my childhood. I have always loved animals and as an adult now I have had a cat for 5 years. Dogs and cats always end up loving me as I always love them back! I have experience taking care of friend's pets (mostly cats), but I am also definitely able to take care of dogs if given instructions and I love to walk dogs as well. If you want someone who will love and care for your pet I am that person! I am currently flexible part time for pet care. I can take care of your pet in the morning or the afternoon for the most part and can be available on weekends as well Currently not able to care for pets in my home, but I will be able to go to your home and care for your pet if needed. I am respectful and will adhere to any instructions you put out for taking care of your pet in your home.

About: In my 30 years of experience I have welped puppies and kittens, administered medications (including injections,) managed elderly care, special needs, special diets, bathing, behavior, and so much more. :) I use my fine tuned empathy and sharp observation skills to monitor mood, changes, and head them off at the pass. The more you learn how to communicate with an animal on their terms, the easier it is to meet their needs and yours. Caring for animals and animal behavior are one of the most captivating and fulfilling things that enrich my life. Animals are a big part of my daily routine, and I build my day around caring for pets . I enjoy a laid-back, slower-paced lifestyle with plenty of time for walks, outdoor time, and providing calm, attentive companionship. I have a yard where pets can safely enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time, and I love creating a comfortable environment where they feel relaxed, secure, and loved while their families are away. Our home is 2,000 sq ft with two floors, outfitted with crates and gates making it easy to keep dogs separated if necessary. We have a newly installed, fully secured fence around an ample backyard for fetches, sniffles, and safe play. Our neighborhood is calm, quiet, and filed with wildlife making walks calm yet engaging.
“Rebecca did a great job with my kiddos. Even though they have many quirks and require a lot of time , she took her time make sure that everyone was taken care of. I would hire her again.”

About: I worked at a pet store and dog sat all through high school, so I’m very attentive to different pup’s needs, especially ones with dietary restrictions and other physical or mental health needs. My schedule is very open, since I’m on summer break from my regular full time job as a student :). I’m available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, well fed, and exercised! I have a lot of experience handling dogs with varied personalities and needs, so a lot of how I’ll take care of them will depend on the individual pup.

About: Hi! I’m an 18 year old student who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve grown up with cats and have experience with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and understanding animal behavior and moods. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive, and I always try to match each pet’s personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need a calm presence. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat them like my own. I’m responsible, reliable, and happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and stress-free in your absence! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I already structure my day around responsibility, consistency, and being attentive to details. I’m used to keeping a steady routine, so adding feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins for pets feels very natural to me. I enjoy spending time with animals, so it never feels like a chore, it becomes something I genuinely look forward to throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal feeding schedule, make sure they always have fresh water, keep their space clean, and give them lots of attention, play, and affection depending on their personality. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of routines and instructions. I stick closely to the pet’s usual schedule so they feel secure in their own environment. I double-check everything: food, water, walks, litter boxes, medications if needed, and I always make sure pets get not just care, but companionship so they don’t feel alone while their owner is away.

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.

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.
