“Hope was an amazing pet sitter! She responded quickly, super helpful and was able to watch our animals last minute, sent plenty of pictures and communicated with me the whole time. She even let me know she’d love to help us out again at any time…we will definitely be using her for now on! Highly recommend and in her bio she has a great background/experience with animals!”
“She is caring, patient, and responsible and made sure my fur babies are taken care of and happy. I work overnights and she comes into home while I'm sleeping to feed and let my fur babies out. She makes sure she and my babies are quiet while in my home. She sends me updates via text of her visit. I would definitely recommend Asia for anyone that is looking for someone that is trustworthy.”

“Delaney was fantastic and sent photos and updates all 5 days we were gone. My pups are escape artists so it was a great peace of mind to know that they were taken care of and accounted for. Lol.”
“I originally booked Dubai to care for my two pups and she was absolutely wonderful with them — but she didn’t stop there! She even helped with my cats, who are usually about as social as undercover agents. Somehow, she got adorable pics of them looking relaxed and happy (I’m still not sure how she pulled that off). She accepted the booking on super short notice, stayed communicative the entire time (even when I was slow to reply — oops!), and genuinely went the extra mile for all my fur kids. If you need someone reliable, kind, and pet-savvy — especially for a mixed pack of personalities — she’s your person. 💜”
“Riley was amazing! She was very attentive. She spent genuine time with my dogs during her drop-ins. Even more so then I was expecting! I can honestly say I typically stress about my babies but I didn’t worry about them with Riley! I’d definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. I had an English Bulldog named Gertie that sadly recently passed of cancer. I also have had two cats! I am currently in my last semester of college with mostly online classes so I have plenty of time to take care of your babies! My weekends are also mostly free. I am very flexible with whatever your schedule tends to be. I have taken care of multiple family friends pets where they have many different ways of caring for their pets. Just tell me what to do & I can do it!
About: Since I was 12 I’ve been helping my mom in her dog grooming business including walking, feeding, watering, and bathing. I’ve also had a handful of babies that needed special care so I have no problem handling any sort of medication if needed. I am working part time so I have plenty of time during the week for any service needed. I am available up until 4:30 Monday- Tuesdays and all day on Sundays. My house is unavailable for dog sitting at the moment however again I don’t mind to travel! I will let your babies out of course, check their water bowls, and have plenty of play time.
About: Your dog's happiness is my top priority. I love all animals. Please let me take care of yours. We will be the best of friends. I'm currently working part-time, but I have alot of free time to play with your animals. I can always move things around to fit with your schedule. I will walk them, play with them, give them attention, maybe take them to the trail or dog park, feed them, pick up after them, give them water, do tricks, give snacks, and bonding time.
About: Hi! My name is Kerys and i'm a 21 years old! I have been pet sitting for years and would love to care for your furry friends! If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me! I'm currently a stay at home wife, and my husband works out of town. So my schedule is pretty flexible and I can be there whenever you need me to be! The services I offer provide comfort to your pets. I can stay in your home, so they don't have to be out of their normal environment. Or I can do daily drop ins every couple of hours to let them out and check on them. It is at your preference!

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.
