“Kate is such a a wonderful cat sitter! Her check-ins were thorough and she always communicated clearly how my cat was doing. I felt very comfortable and relaxed my whole vacation knowing my cat was in good hands! I highly recommend Kate!”
“My rescue dogs are afraid of almost everyone but they are not afraid of Sarah! She is very reliable, flexible and communicative plus she takes GREAT pictures. Thanks Sarah!”
“Brianna was an outstanding cat sitter! She was very communicative and really took the time to get to know my babies before I even left town. She was patient with my shy girl and understood she just needed some time to feel her out. She made sure water bowls were filled and even cleaned their food bowls, which was above what I was expecting. I received several pictures during the visit and could tell they were comfortable. I would recommend Bri to those of you with kitties. 10/10”
About: I’m a responsible and caring pet lover with 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve provided walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention for family and friends’ pets. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for pet care throughout the week and can work pet visits into my schedule. I’m responsible, dependable, and will make sure I give each pet plenty of attention during every visit. I’m especially interested in regular walks and drop-in visits and will communicate with owners to make sure their pets receive the care they need. I’ve cared for family and friends’ dogs by taking them on walks, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they have plenty of food and water. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’ll follow each owner’s instructions carefully while making sure their pet feels safe and comfortable.
About: Look no further for a responsible, loving companion for your pet. I love every animal as if it were my own. I have a senior small dog of my own, and before that I had experience walking and caring for my neighbors' dogs when I was younger. Outside of Rover, I have multiple clients I regularly house-sit for with pups of all ages/sizes. I've also volunteered with shelter dogs! I also have experience with other animals if required. In my home I have 3 wonderful cats as well as my dog! I've worked with rabbits, dogs, cats, turtles, and am eager to learn about anything else. My top passion is pets. My availability is flexible, but I prefer a heads up at least a week in advance to coordinate accordingly. I am also a trained groomer, so I have experience in all grooming aspects, dog handling, and dog body language. My own pup is reactive, so I am incredibly comfortable and confident in handling your pet if they have behavioral issues as well. DISCLAIMER: I require a meet and greet prior to any daycare stays in my home, for everyone's comfort. Everyone's safety is of the utmost importance, including your pets' and mine. While one of my cats is very elusive, the other loves dogs and so does my dog! I am great about fitting some care into my day even on shorter notice. My routine is usually just hanging out at home and popping out to grab a coffee a few times, so I'm available to your pet nearly 24/7! Please let me know any special care instructions! Unless otherwise stated, I always let pups out every couple of hours, feed once a day and always give fresh water. Some dogs prefer to be leashed when outside but others will go on their own so please notify me of your preference! My main priority is keeping your pet happy and safe.
About: While technically I have zero years of “pet care experience”, I’ve grown up with dogs and cats since I can remember. My family has owned dogs such as Alaskan Malamute's, German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers and Labradors. Whenever a friend or family member has needed someone to take care of their pet while they’re away, I am one of their first calls. I have loved animals my whole life and this is a good way to help those that need it. I do work a full time job, however there’s a lot of downtime during my working 9-5 hours which gives me the freedom/flexibility to do this. I will be able to care for your pets however I need to based off the clients requests. As long as there is enough communication between the client and myself I will accommodate.
“Jennifer was great with Murphy. She was timely, took him on a walk, fed him and spent additional time with him. She locked up and I would trust her to come back again! Thanks Jennifer!”
“We hired Kelsey to care for our elderly cat who requires medicine 2x a day while going out of town. Our cat is very shy but took to Kelsey very quickly. She was punctual, meticulous, and went above and beyond to provide outstanding care for our sweet guy. She played with him, took outstanding notes, followed up with updates and pics, and ensured he got everything he needed. We would hire her again with no question. Highly recommend her.”

About: Hi, I'm Miranda! I’m a dedicated animal lover with years of experience, and I'd love to care for your furry family members. I have transitioned from casual sitting to specialized care, meaning your pets are in highly capable hands. Feline Care: I have extensive experience with cats, including senior and medically complex felines who require extra patience and attention. Canine Care: I have plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. This includes taking care of pups with disabilities and unique communication needs, such as sweet deaf dogs with visual commands. Exotics & Small Pets: I am also confident caring for birds, reptiles, fish, and other pocket pets. If you are in the Bellevue area and want a kind, trustworthy, dedicated, and highly communicative sitter to look after your animals, I am here to help! Message me today to schedule a meet & greet. I look forward to meeting your cute critters soon! :) I have very free availability at the moment, as I run my own business for work and make my own hours! Pet care is actually the crux of my personal daily routine. My own cute critter, my cat Flower, keeps me quite occupied at home, whether it's feeding her on schedule, giving her lots of playtime, or just snuggling up for some brushing. Rest assured, I'll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I would love to have an introduction meeting with you, virtual or in-person, so we can discuss your pet's needs, preferences, and schedule! Every pet is different, and it is very important that I understand your cute critter's individual personality so I can give them the quality care they deserve. During the introductory meeting, I will be sure to ask specifics about diet and medication, as well, so that no changes are made to their regular routine. I work hard to be timely and courteous by keeping pet owners updated about their cute critters while away, and will always make sure to include some pictures for you to enjoy! I make sure that I am accessible around the clock in case any questions or concerns arise while you're away.
“Taylor is wonderful! This was the third time we’ve had her come for drop in visits with our pup, Reese, and each time we have been so happy with how well she cares for our girl. Reese loves going for walks and Taylor takes her for a long walk during each drop in. We have a very anxious pup and Taylor is so patient with her. We will always use Taylor’s services for our pup.”
“Savannah was truly outstanding. I had just started fostering a dog a week prior to her coming in, and she stepped in flawlessly. Had no issue washing the bedding when an accident happened, exhausted both dogs and made them happy and safe through out the whole week. She’s competent, figured out where everything was, and professional to a T. Would rebook her for a longer vacation anytime.”
“Chelsea was amazing and helped me out at the last minute when I really needed someone. She was incredibly responsive, friendly, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated throughout the visit and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my cats were in good hands. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
“Melanie was fantastic. We had a great meet and greet before she watched our cat Draka for three days. Each day she sent us updates and gave our kitty the care she needed (had to have oral medication once a day). Melanie was super friendly and it was awesome to have her come over.”
About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
“Accepted a last minute request due to a cancellation. Did great taking care of Mr.Rocket and let me know his arrival time and when he left. Couldn’t of asked for better care for Mr.Rocket”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs—I’ve never gone a day in my 19 years without one by my side. I understand their needs, personalities, and routines deeply. I’m skilled in caring for puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and comfortable in my care. Pet care is seamlessly woven into my daily life, as I’ve always had dogs by my side. From early morning walks to consistent feeding schedules, playtime, and attentive care, I prioritize their well-being effortlessly. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me—it’s a rewarding part of my routine that I genuinely love. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique needs, whether in my home or my client’s. In my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routines closely, maintaining a familiar and comforting atmosphere. From feeding and exercise to companionship and attention, I treat every pet like family.
About: I have been taking care of neighbors, friends, & family pets since I was in middle school. I own two very unique cats, Daemon & Love that i adore & keep me busy sometimes. I love taking dogs or cats on walks. I used to love having my dog go on a run with me, but she has long since passed away. She wasn't the best at some dog commands from training, but she did enjoy getting a treat when she did listen. My work schedule is flexible during the week due to my level. I typically can come anytime in the early morning to about 10am & then evenings after 6pm. If someone is very close by, I can stop over during a lunch break as well around 2pm. I live in a two story condo, so my cats typically have run of my house. I adapt to anyone's preferences & home environment to care for their family fur baby to make sure they are comfortable while someone ia away.
“Meredith was prompt and conscientious for every visit. Even with our very shy cats, she managed to get a picture of each one each day to reassure us that they were in good hands. Highly recommend.”

Kate just finished taking care of my cat Boomer, coming over twice each day for 8 days. The pics she's sent show a very happy cat and it's a huge weight off my shoulders knowing he's not stressing out because I'm away. Each visit includes pics and notes on how he's doing, including noting anything or is the ordinary. All I could ask for. I won't hesitate to use her services again.
Amy is a fantastic and loving caregiver!! We are so lucky that we found her. She is attuned to both of our pets needs and spends quality time with both them in addition to all the tactical stuff (food, water, potty breaks). She is highly communicative and even brings in packages if they come so the house feels attended to as well! Do yourself a favor and book Amy!!
Allyson was so good with my boys! She went above and beyond for them. She walked them, fed them, gave them their medicine and hung out with them outside during the nice weather days. I got pictures every visit to show how happy they were with her taking care of them. Already booked Allyson for my next trip! Thanks again for being great!
We have been working with Ayla for a couple of years while she lived in Chicago, and we were so sad to learn she was moving home to PGH after graduation. Ayla is extremely reliable and such a wonderful pet sitter. She is very detail-oriented and prepared for every visit. She most recently cared for our cat (cranky) but also has experience with our dog (pittie), and they are both enamored with her. She truly got to know our pets, and her care for them exceeded our expectations. She always provided regular and consistent photos and updates, easing our minds while we were away. From drop-ins to house sitting, we always came home to happy and healthy pets and a clean apartment at that. There's no need to look any further for your go-to sitter because Ayla is it! We can't thank her enough!
Taylor's pet care service was exceptional! Daily reports were much appreciated - and she did much more than we had asked or expected. We could not have been more pleased with her services - and definitely plan to request them again if she continues to provide them. Would highly recommend Taylor!
My dog has a lot of separation anxiety. Jessica popped in to take her for a walk while I was at work. Jessica was great with communication and sent me a picture while on their walk. Jessica was thorough, and asked great questions prior to meeting my dog. She gave me peace of mind while I was at work. I would recommend Jessica and will be using her again! 😊
Rae Lynn did a great job taking care of our cats. We were a bit changeable about the booking: we removed a date, added a cat, added the removed date back. Rae was wonderfully flexible and accommodated all our short-notice changes. She sent photos and updates, and our cats were well cared for in our absence.

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.
