“Samantha was great with Buddy. Addressed all concerns I had for him, sent pictures and updates almost daily. Most dogs were his size which was a first for him, and he had so much fun playing with them that I will probably be booking some play dates for him. He has always been ok with fireworks, but was anxious this time and stayed at her side throughout the evening. She made a bed next to her at nights so he was near her. Far exceeded my expectations!”
“I had a Great impression from the beginning!! They were so Great to communicate and I feel he had the BEST home away from home stay. Will definitely use their services in the future. Thank you so much!!!”
“Charmaine did an excellent job of keeping me informed during Chief's visit. He has not cared for sitters in the past, and today he came home in excellent spirits! He was well taken care of while we were out of town and she gave me great peace of mind. We will use her next time we travel. Thanks so much Charmaine!”
“Summer C. did a fantastic job watching our Malamute, Ellie, while we were away for the weekend. She was reliable, caring, and made us feel completely comfortable knowing Ellie was in good hands. We really appreciated the attention and care she gave Ellie, and we would absolutely recommend Summer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter!”
“Jacquelynn was fantastic with my three dogs! She provided regular text, picture, and video updates, was prompt in responding to my outreach, and the dogs came home looking happy! I will definitely be booking with her again the next time I am out ot town.”
“Klaressa was fantastic to work with. Liberty seemed to enjoy her holidays with her new friends, and came home not lacking in lovins while we were away. We were given regular updates, pictures and video of our girl while away too!”
“Debbie and Randy are absolutely fantastic! They took such great care of Oakley. Awesome communication, and lots of fun pictures during her stay. I will definitely use them again.”
“Brianna is simple the best! She treats my Noodles like her own. I feel at peace when Noodles is in Brianna’s care when I am out of town. I highly, highly recommend Brianna!!!”
“We left our 1.5 year old dog Lucy with Marilee for 5 days while we went to Alaska. I was a little nervous to start because Marilee has a lot of children and Lucy hasn't been around a lot of kids. Lucy did great and the kids loved here. Marilee's husband mentioned that she is a dog whisperer and I believe it. Lucy had been bored with us every since she came home. She clearly loved being there and we will definitely use Marilee and her family again.”
“Linda was awesome. She is a kind and wonderful person who cares for our dog as if he were her own. That was the first time we had left him, and he got along great with her dog, Bodie. I would recommend her if you need someone to care for your dog as well as you would.”
“Tearra did an amazing job with my dog Fey and cat Friday! She made them feel right at home and I couldn’t have been happier with her. She sent me pictures of them regularly and kept up with their routine. She helped me make a vet run and helped with feys probiotic medicine. It was truly comforting to know that they were being taken care of by someone that cares as much as I do. Thank you so much Tearra! There’s no doubt if there are more out of town trips I need to take I know where I’m leaving my babies.”
“My dog Mabel, seemed to have a great time staying with Lisa! We wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with her and her husband for any future needs! She provided photo updates that were much appreciated during her stay.”
“Oh my goodness! We have used Rover several times and have always had good experiences, but Shannon went above and beyond anything we’ve had before. She was so kind and conscientious. We could easily tell that she truly cared for our two giant dogs (each about 150lbs) she brushed them, walked them, gave them their meds and gave them treats and even new toys to bring home. We got daily pictures and reports about how they were doing. She even told us how they slept and the silly things they did. We didn’t worry about anything! We will definitely use her again and again.”
“Denise is FANTASTIC!! We will be back! She was so sweet and took such good care of Queenie! She loved it there and it was so apparent she was so happy! So kind and the space is clean and well cared for!!”
“We chose William and his family to look after our dog because of their calm environment, kindness, and genuine care for dogs. We could tell that our dog was not just watched, he was well loved and taken care of. William was great at communicating. He even taught our dog a new trick. We’d highly recommend!”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gerrard home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gerrard.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Gerrard sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ID ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
