“Kendric and Jana were awesome. They were very flexible and worked with me on my last-minute changes to the schedule. They were kind and compassionate with my 15 year-old cat just recently diagnosed with an overactive thyroid which required medication. I had tremble administering the pills, and was frustrated by the process and so was Lucy, but Kendric calmly mixed the pills into her food and down they went. What a relief to me. They definitely have my recommendation.”
“Rachel was an amazing sitter for our Boxer. She spent lots of time with him at each visit and made sure to give him lolenry of exercise. We were updated at each visit with several photos. Bodie was very well taken , and I would absolutely recommend her services!”
“Vanessa is truly the best. I don’t know what I would do without her, she’s accommodating, kind, and understanding. Most importantly, she’s wonderful with my dog”
“Ravi was great! He was so attentive to my girls and provided detailed updates for all 5 days I was out of town with my family. I would absolutely book again next time I need someone to watch my cats!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have always been responsible for walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I have also watched dogs here and there and absolutely enjoy it. I’d love to be a safe and trustworthy option to take care of your baby! I am employed full time but my hours switch from morning and night so as long as I have a days heads up, I can let you know asap whether I’ll be able to or not. I have two dogs at home that are very sweet, but I have a senior dog who can get a little grumpy- I don’t think having another dog in the house would be a good option if it was overnight.
“Kristina did an amazing job. You know someone is a cat person when the shy cats come out for her and ours did. Great communication and lots of lovely photos. We will be messaging Kristina to watch our fur kids in the future. Thank you!!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the level of attention and genuine care I give to each pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, taking time to understand their personality, routines, and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and make sure owners always feel at ease with updates and photos while they’re away. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine. I schedule feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins around my other commitments so that every pet gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening visits, I plan ahead to make sure each pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. In my home, I create a calm, safe space where they can relax, play, and feel loved. I respect their routines and surroundings so they feel secure. I always make sure they get plenty of affection, exercise, and one-on-one time — just like they would with their owner.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 12 years old. I have three currently of my own, all Shih Tzus. I have dog sat for neighbors as well. One of my dogs had kidney disease that required medication twice daily, weekly vet visits and prescription food. I am well versed in caring for sick and senior dogs as well. I am available after 5pm Monday-Thursday, after 2pm Fridays and all day on Saturday and Sundays. I can also create time if needed, on a case by case basis. I am careful to follow any rules or guides put into place. I am happy to have your dog hangout with me or crate them if that’s what you prefer.
“Kelsey is amazing, was willing to work with me on a really short notice, and kept up constant communication with me to keep me updated while I was away on vacation. She even taught my dog a new trick while I was away! Will definitely use her in the future.”
About: I've loved animals since I was a little girl. I have potty trained puppies and taken care of dogs with lots of health issues and medications. I love cats as well! I am available afternoons and evenings to pet sit. During the holidays and weekends, I am available mornings and evenings. I would let you know immediately if my availability shifted. I would be able to take another dog in my home if they were dog friendly. I definitely would be available to do multiple visits to feed, walk, and play with your pet at a client's house.
About: I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether that’s an energetic puppy or a slower-paced senior. I’m experienced with administering medications, maintaining feeding routines, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. I prioritize a calm, structured environment so pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. What sets me apart is my strong communication and organization—I keep owners updated with regular photos and notes, and I follow instructions closely. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they get both the care and affection they’re used to at home. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because my I work from home, which allows for a flexible and consistent schedule. I am able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, feeding times, and plenty of attention throughout the day—not just mornings and evenings. I also have three active, hands-on kids who love animals, so your pet will get lots of interaction, playtime, and affection in a safe, supervised environment. Because I am home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and are part of a structured household routine. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether your pet is in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. In my home, pets enjoy lots of supervised outdoor time in a large backyard, along with daily walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. I keep routines consistent with feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you provide to make the transition stress-free. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine and environment as closely as possible—feeding, walks, play, and companionship—while also keeping your home tidy and secure. I prioritize attention, safety, and communication so you feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Madison left us detailed report cards on our cat after every visit. Our cat takes a little while to warm up to people but she was being held and playing with Madison after just a couple of days.”
“Second time booking him for drop in visits to watch my cat. So glad he was available to come stop by so Kevin wouldn’t get lonely all by himself while I was in Florida. After the first visit I asked to add a few more days and he easily added them for me! Thanks again and I hope everyone leaves him great tips because he deserves it! :)”
“Audrey did a wonderful job checking in on our dog and 2 cats while we were away. We got report cards with pictures for every visit and she kept us updated on any concerns that arose. We would be happy to book her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 10+ years. From energetic puppies to senior lapdogs, I’ve helped with walking, feeding, bathing, and administering medications. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to love their pets like my own. I currently have a calm and cuddly Shih Tzu and Shichon who get along well with other dogs, making my home a welcoming, peaceful environment. Whether your pet needs lots of play or quiet companionship, I'm here to give them a safe, happy stay. I work remotely and am home 24/7, which means your dog will receive constant care, attention, and supervision. I’m available for boarding and daytime stays throughout the week and weekends. I truly believe in protecting the well-being of every dog—I would never put a pup in a stressful or unsafe situation because it’s not morally right. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. My home is a calm, pet-friendly space. I closely supervise all interactions to ensure a safe, stress-free experience. I’m also comfortable crating upon request, following feeding/medication routines, and keeping your pet on their usual schedule for maximum comfort and care.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, I learned the basics such as what are different ways a dog is feeling based upon its actions. I’ve grown to learn more and I’m here to serve all sorts of dogs and cater to they're needs. I’m currently a community college student who’s also working part time so I’ll have ample amount of time to take care of your fur baby’s. If needed we have three funny dogs who are very friendly and a fenced in yard who would love to spend time with your dogs!

Kendric and Jana were awesome. They were very flexible and worked with me on my last-minute changes to the schedule.

I had tremble administering the pills, and was frustrated by the process and so was Lucy, but Kendric calmly mixed the pills into her food and down they went. What a relief to me. They definitely have my recommendation.
Vanessa helped me out last minute, was easy to work with, and communicates well. She was on time and gave my girls so much love during each visit. Upon arriving home from our trip we found a hand written note, treats and chews for each pup!!! I’ve used rover for years and I highly recommended her to anyone looking for a drop in sitter. She is trustworthy and kind. Thank you Vanessa!
Kailin did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She followed all of my instructions perfectly and gave her lots of love and attention. She took her on a nice long walk, played with her in the backyard, and made sure she ate her dinner. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was. I would definitely recommend Kailin!
We had a wonderful experience! They stopped by to care for our pets during dinner, took Rodger on a nice walk, and gave our kitties plenty of love and snuggles. It was clear they genuinely cared about our animals and made sure everyone was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing our pets were in such caring hands gave us so much peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be booking with them again!
Amanda was a fantastic sitter for our dog that requires bladder expression. This was the first time we’ve been away from the dogs and used a sitter, we were very nervous but the experience could not have better for us or the dogs. Amanda’s attention to detail, veterinary background, and clear and frequent communication put us at ease the entire time we were away from the pups!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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 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.
