“Amanda was absolutely wonderful! I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs in her care, and I truly appreciated her accommodating my last minute request. I feel very lucky that she was available. I highly recommend her, and I will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Sara is amazing! I had a horrible experience last year & was so worried about a repeat experience….so glad I found her. She was a drop in for me twice a day 5 days! If you are scared to do drop-ins (as I was), I am reassuring you that you can 100% trust her. Pics & questions for great care. Honestly, I feel like a made a friend.”
About: I’m a huge animal lover with years of experience caring for pets! I’ve had my own dog for 9 years, have a turtle, and usually volunteer at animal shelters as much as I can. Taking care of animals is something I truly love! With me, your pup will get plenty of attention, belly rubs, and care, just like they’re part of my own family. I am currently working full-time 4 days a week and I alternate working Tuesdays and Saturdays. I'm available to spend time with your pups any time on weekends and i’m flexible on the weekdays. I prioritize safety, trust, and making sure each pup feels comfortable and loved. I treat every dog like my own, giving them plenty of attention and playtime while respecting their space and personality. I take the time to understand their routines, needs, and any special instructions to keep things consistent and stress-free. With me, you will be updated with messages and photos, so they always know their pup is happy and well cared for and so you can feel confident your fur baby is in loving, responsible hands!
About: What sets me apart is my experience working in HR at a veterinary hospital and my love of all different types of animals. I am familiar with animal care environments and understand the importance of safety, proper handling, and recognizing an animal’s needs. I have had animals my entire life including dogs, fish, birds, frogs, and more, so caring for different species comes naturally to me. Whether it is puppies who need structure or senior pets who need patience and gentler care, I bring a calm, confident, and attentive approach to every animal I care for. My toy poodle Prissy, who is featured in my profile picture, will forever have my heart. She recently passed away from cancer, and losing her has been incredibly difficult. I am not ready to adopt another dog yet, but pet sitting allows me to stay connected to animals and continue giving them the love and attention they deserve. When a pet is in my care, my focus is entirely on them. I make sure they get meals, walks, playtime, and cuddles every day, while paying close attention to their habits and personality. Even on busy days, I keep things consistent so pets feel safe, relaxed, and happy. I care for pets in my home with love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I stick to each pet’s routine, from meals and walks to playtime and special needs, while keeping a close eye on their behavior. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a chill adult dog, or a wise senior, I adapt my care to make every pet feel happy, secure, and truly loved. 🐶
“Jacqueline took great care of our cats for three days last weekend, they seemed happy and relaxed when we returned. She sent updates and nice pictures each day, and used the Rover app well so we always knew when she'd been in to visit. We would use Jacqueline's services again and would recommend her to others.”

“Britney cared for our family’s 3 dachshunds for us when we went to Destin for 5 days. We lost a dachshund years ago when a neighbor was pet sitting so we’re really nervous leaving them home with a sitter, but Britney took right to them and you could tell they loved her and weren’t afraid. She was amazing with our pups and we didn’t worry one second about them. She was great at communicating with us and caught great pictures of them each visit which made us miss them less! I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! My name is Joanne! My husband and I both work from home, so one of us is almost always around to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love throughout the day. Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up in Houston raising dogs and have cared for them through all different stages of life. My first dog was with our family for 12 wonderful years before passing away in 2019. After that, I helped raise and train our family dog, Meelo, who now lives with my parents. We currently have Suki, our 9 month old pup who is playful, energetic, and absolutely loves being around other dogs. She has plenty of puppy energy, so we’re very used to keeping dogs active, entertained, and supervised! We’re an active household and genuinely love having dogs around. Walks, running around outside, playing fetch, belly rubs, and just hanging out together are some of our favorite ways to spend the day. Since we work from home, your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will get lots of attention throughout their stay. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your dog, so I’ll always treat your pup like they’re part of our family while they’re with us. Whether they’re energetic and ready to play or just want someone to cuddle up next to, we’re happy to make them feel right at home!

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.
