About: I've been walking and checking in on friends' and family's dogs for years. I never got to have my own growing up, so dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I'm reliable, easy to communicate with, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with every dog I meet. I'm new to Rover but I'm serious about building something here and I will always show up for your pup! I work full time during the week, but I have availability in the evenings and on weekends and enjoy staying active during my free time. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, so I do my best to be flexible, communicative, and reliable. My goal is to make pet care as easy and stress free as possible while making sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I currently offer walks and drop in visits so your pet can stay comfortable in the environment they know best. I take being trusted in someone else’s home very seriously and always aim to be respectful, organized, and attentive while caring for your pet. I know every animal has different needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have experience caring for my 15 year old long haired chihuahua. I have previous experience of care of two coon dogs and I also learned about equestrian horse care for a few years. Always open and eager to care and learn about animal needs!! I am a part time student with open availability except for Fridays and Saturdays! I have free time currently to give to pet care and can communicate any schedule needs. The pets in my home live a structured, comfortable, carefree life. Fed on a certain schedule, cared and walked on a certain schedule as well. Crates, toys, treats and bedding always provided.
“Abby was wonderful with our dogs! They both really liked her! She understood their needs, as senior dogs, and made sure they got lots of love and snuggles. Panda needs medication and Abby was diligent with making sure she followed his schedule.”
About: Hi, I’m Cooper. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who loves both dogs and cats and understands how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone new. Whether your pet needs a walk, feeding, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just calm company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and good at adjusting to each pet’s personality — energetic dogs, shy cats, senior pets, playful puppies, or animals who just need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send updates so you always know how they’re doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and my goal is simple: your dog or cat gets loving, reliable care, and you get total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I’m dependable, flexible, and able to plan walks, visits, feeding, and playtime around each pet’s needs. I make sure every pet gets attention, care, and consistency. I care for pets by following the owner’s instructions closely and keeping their routine as normal as possible. In a client’s home, I respect the space, make sure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, handle feeding carefully, and give pets calm, attentive care. I focus on safety, comfort, and trust so every dog or cat feels secure while their owner is away.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and currently have 2 wonderful dogs that are very dog friendly. We have 2 acres for the dogs to roam I am a full time realtor and I write my own schedule. I can be flexible to your needs. I am open to various routines for multiple animals. I keep a very watchful eye on our animals as they share a space with our 4 daughters who also love animals. Our property is mostly fenced in and we are in a rural area.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the natural bond I form with animals. Even though I’m new to Rover, I’ve always had a calming energy that pets are drawn to. I treat every animal like a unique soul, not just a pet. I’m attentive to their needs, routines, and comfort. Whether they’re shy, playful, or full of zoomies, I adjust to their vibe. I create a peaceful, loving environment where they feel safe, understood, and cared for like family. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to professional pet care! I currently pet sit full-time and have an established base of recurring clients, so I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. As I continue to grow my business, I’m opening my schedule to welcome new Rover clients. My availability may vary depending on my existing bookings, but I do my best to be flexible and keep my calendar up to date. If you’re interested in booking with me, feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine above all else. I take the time to learn their needs, behaviors, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for, even while you’re away. In your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care as I would my own, while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible — feeding times, walks, play, and quiet time included. I’m dependable, intuitive, and naturally attentive to animals, and I take pride in providing the kind of care that gives you total peace of mind.
About: I’m patient, attentive, and experienced caring for all pets, and I’ve recently adopted a puppy, actively learning and practicing positive training every single day, too. Pet care is already part of my everyday life. I start and end my day with feeding, potty breaks, and playtime for my puppy, plus short training sessions throughout the day. I build in walks, enrichment, cuddles, and any medication needs around my normal schedule, so pets in my care get consistent attention, structure, and affection every day I have a fenced in yard and one indoor puppy and one outdoor dog. I work during the day but come home on breaks to check on them. I also have my 2yro son every other week who loves to play with the dogs
“Skye made a new friend with Nahla. She sent pics and updates at each visit. And being a vet tech she passed on some info that we needed to watch about Nahla. Skye spirit was calming for Nahla so.less stress for the separation days.”
“Jessica is absolutely fantastic! She was able to watch my dog on short notice and took exceptional care of him!!! She was patient with me when I was slightly panicking because I was out of state and the person who was supposed to watch him cancelled. She made sure I didn’t have to worry about my dog and I knew he would be cared for properly. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi my name is kalee! I’ve been taking care of animals since 6 years old also horses and chickens since 16. I’ve also worked at a couple of animal facilities such as Williamsburg Pet Hotel & Suites in Ballwin, MO and The Watering Bowl in Mehlville, MO. I can also grind nails, clean teeth, ears also bathe. I’d be the perfect candidate for your furry friend to make them feel comfortable and happy. I currently am looking into owning my own business for an animal facility. I have open availability so if you’re looking for a dog walker or sitter I’m your person. I currently stay at in Garfield, Arkansas, so I would have to come to your house or do drop in visits when dog sitting I would do whatever it takes to make you and your animals happy.
About: I’ve worked with dogs for over a decade. I’ve worked for a few doggy daycares, one that I was with for 13 years. I truly love dogs. I have two dogs myself, Hollyhock and Lemonhope and they are my world. I’m looking to start walking dogs around the area. I’m also an artist and my main focus is usually doggie related art! Currently working part time, and just looking to walk some puppers in my free time! On Wednesday-Friday I’m busy during the day BUT I can do evening walks! The rest of my days are pretty much open! I can get access to extra collars, leashes and harnesses for walking however it would be easier if you provided your own as different dogs wear different sizes.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Garfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
