“Gillian is reliable and a great communicator. She was very good with my pup that has high energy. I would definitely recommend her and have her pet sit my corgi again!”
“Ana is amazing! She is meticulous, goes above and beyond, and truly allows me to enjoy my vacation knowing she’s taking care of my cats. She adores all of my pets and they adore her. The only downside of having Ana watch my cats is they barely miss me while I’m gone 😊 10/10!”
“Very easy to communicate with Dustin! He took some pics of that animals while he visited and reported back once his visit was done. Very nice to have someone to count on in a pinch!!”
About: Hello! I have had dogs since I was 6 years old and know from experience they are amazing and truly best fur friends! I have over 25 years of experience taking care of dogs of my own, family and friends fur babies. I take them to the park to run and play. I ensure they have plenty of water and correct amount of food. I love playing, walking and enjoy their company! I look forward to taking care of your loved ones with lots of love and ensure they have fun! I work full time and have a hybrid schedule. I'm excited and can't wait to care for your fur babies! I love taking walks and playing with all types of dogs big and small! Most importantly they will get excellent care and feel comfortable. I give compassionate and loving care while paying attention to all details to ensure proper care. I will care for your house and treat it with the utmost respect.
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was ten, and cats especially are my specialty — I've raised them from kittenhood through their senior years, including hands-on experience with age-related health needs and end-of-life care. That depth of experience means I recognize subtle changes in behavior or health long before they become emergencies, and I'm comfortable coordinating vet visits when something comes up. What really sets me apart is how seriously I take the "sitting" part of house sitting. I don't just check boxes — I send regular photos and updates, keep the home exactly as I found it (dishes done, plants watered, trash handled), and treat every pet like my own. Past clients have described coming home to a spotless house and visibly happy, relaxed animals. For me, this isn't a side gig — it's a genuine extension of how I already care for the world around me. I work full-time, so drop-in visits fit best on Friday afternoons and weekends. For housesitting assignments, I'm available to stay overnight, giving pets consistent companionship around my workday for the full duration of the sit. I keep pets on their regular schedule—feeding, medications, and walks or playtime as needed—while making sure they get plenty of affection and interaction. I send pet parents regular updates so they can relax while away, and I keep the space tidy so animals stay in a calm, comfortable environment.
“Jazmin was amazing checking in on Lucy! Followed all care instructions I had left for her. She was very communicative and sent me so many update pictures/videos of Lucy. Definitely recommend booking with her as a dog sitter!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life. All my dogs have been trained well and are very active. I walk my dog daily and love being outdoors. I have been dog sitting and dog walking for a few years for in app clients but I’ve been doing it my whole life. Our family has a golden retriever and a cat. The cat is indoor only and doesn’t prefer to interact with dogs usually. I work full time as a teacher but my wife (also on this app) works from home 3 days a week. I am off on summer break and have other breaks throughout the year. My dogs walks usually happen early in the morning or after dinner time. We play with and brush our dog and cat. We have a toddler who loves animals. We have a small backyard with grassy area. We have a nice neighborhood and walk dogs throughout. We live across the street from a huge park that the dog and child love to visit.
About: I am a retired teacher, ready to just enjoy animals. Our very long lived pets have include kitties and dogs, including large breeds, like Rottweilers am I current fur baby Bella, who is a Yorkshire terrier.Spot the old gentleman lived for 20 years. He was under constant medical care in 2020 when he couldn’t get to the vet. He was medicated and he receives subcutaneous fluids from me. I also performed injections for his medicine once a day and his pill pills twice a day. I am available most days of the week so if I show that I’m off, it’s probably for a short doctor’s appointment or errand that I have. Let me know. I’m available work days and most weekends. Call to see if I’m available for special overnights care or medical care. If your dog has an appointment, I would gladly help you. If I show that I am not available it’s usually because I scheduled an appointment those days for myself. Pets or care for in my home in West Sacramento. A dog park is nearby as is a regular park for fragile dogs. One little Yorkie present and adults only.
About: Me and my family enjoy animals. We have a dog of our own and had a cat. We are very attentive with pets. We will play and walk your pet. We will make sure the pet is fed and clean. We have pet sitted before for family and friends for months at a time. We enjoy taking care of animals but particularly small dogs and cats. So please call me if you would like your pet in good hands. I am in the Elk Grove area. Thank you. I can walk your pets, provide daycare or overnight care. My family will enjoy taking care of your pets. Your pet will be in good care. We love our animals ❤️ I have a big fenced yard , and have a crate. As well as a dog fence, dog beds, a cat litter box, and plenty of toys for animals to play with.
“She was amazing! Super reliable, communicative, and took such great care of everything while we were away. We felt completely at ease and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I'm new to Rover, but well-experienced in cat care. My home is like a ready-made daycare for the three of them. I'm like that helicopter mom who's always making sure my babies are safe and well cared for, and I will do the same for your pets. In the past, not only have I taken care of my animals, but I have also looked after strays walking through my apartment building. Especially during kitten season, mama cats need help the most. And if the neighbor's cat strays my way, I don't mind giving them a treat and some companionship, too. That's how I am with the furry ones; I'm there for them. And I will look forward to doing the same for your pets if you hire me for drop-in visits. I also want to point out that my services are for cats, but I would be more than happy to tend to your dog the same way if you have one at no additional charge right now. And that includes feedings, replenishing the water bowl, playing with them, administering meds (topical, not injections), and a little grooming. And because this is a DIV, sorry, I won't be doing dog walking. This saves me time in order to make it to my next client. Because I'm new at this, I prefer to do drop-in visits right now. I can do drop-in visits up to six days a week, in the afternoon. Just let me know how many days out of the six you need me. When hired, I will give your pet or pets plenty of play time and TLC. If you have specific instructions, such as how to administer meds, please let me know. I would also like to point out that, because I'm new here at Rover, I don't have any testimonials. Therefore, I'm willing to give you the best service possible and exchange for one.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Freeport
Lauren did a great job with Ollie. Ollie bonded with her right away. It was really nice to know that Ollie was happy while I was out of town. I would recommend Lauren without question to anyone. She is friendly, efficient, and truly loves to take care of animals. I will not hesitate to use her again in the future. Thank You Lauren!
Alma is incredibly patient and kind. Her calm demeanor is evident within minutes of meeting her. We have a cat who has shown she is not the happiest with new people in her home, but needs daily meds. Alma went the extra mile to ensure Wynnie was comfortable, but most importantly, took her much needed medication. Thank you so much, Alma!
Gillian is an extremely dependable and astute individual, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment she met my pups, it was clear she truly gets animals, she’s attentive, patient, and so loving with them. She kept me updated with the sweetest photos and notes, and I came home to two happy, calm, well cared for pups. You can tell she goes above and beyond in every little detail. I had complete peace of mind the entire time and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend Gillian to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust!
I had such a great experience with Annie while I was away on vacation. She took such amazing care of Ripley and paid close attention to every little detail, making sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. You can truly tell how much she genuinely cares for animals through the love and attention she gives them. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands, and I’m so thankful for all the playtime, care, and updates she provided. Highly recommend! Will book again!
Ashley is a dedicated and caring pet sitter! My cat loved her and got some excellent quality time and enrichment from her visits. Ashley showed up and sent updates and photos every day. She is also diligent about asking questions to ensure the best care for your pets. Highly recommended.
Kathryn is seriously such a life saver. I had a flight delay, and desperately needed someone to let my dog out. She saved the day by doing a same day drop-in visit. She was there within an hour! She is extremely responsive, and followed instructions with care. My dog Koala took a liking to her. I will be booking with her in the future.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
