“Your very sweet and very kind to do this at the last moment. I love how from the moment you walked into my home you did nothing but show my Bart love and kindness as I would if I was thete”
“Julissa is the epitome of what I was looking for in someone to care for my dog while Im not home. She is kind, super professional, responsive and on time. She took perfect control of my dog right from the start, asking all the right questions, and took her on a walk during our meet and greet. I cannot recommend her enough, if I could, Id give 10 stars!!”
“Trinity was phenomenal with our dogs. Handled meds, food, and played to keep them from being overly bored while we were away. We work from home, so our dogs are rarely alone, making trips tough on them. They were noticeably more content when we returned than they have been after prior trips. Cannot recommend her enough.”
“Kylee was great! Always on time with her drop ins and our pups enjoyed her stopping by to check on them and feed them. We loved the report card and pics she would send everytime!”
“Rochelle was kind enough to do a meet and greet with my Luna. Everything went smoothly and she even brought in some packages I forgot were coming in during my trip. 10/10 would book her again! Thank you Rochelle!”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! I have had cats, dogs, hamsters, tortoises, and fish. I currently have two huge German Shepherds, 2 Sulcata Tortoises, 1 Fancy Goldfish, and a Siamese Kitten, so I know how to handle all sorts of temperaments and activity needs. I currently run a home bakery and am a full time mom to my 4 year old daughter, so I have plenty of time to put your fur babies on the top of my list. I have reliable transportation and flexible hours to work with any busy schedule! I would love to take care of your babies in the comfort of your own home! I can travel anywhere in the valley that is needed, and can handle any feeding schedule, medications, etc…
“We couldn’t ask for better dog sitters! One of our dogs is very anxious to loud noises, but Allison & Josh are incredibly experienced. They kept us updated throughout the holiday weekend with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were well cared for, comfortable, and loved the entire time. We came home to happy, relaxed pups, and that means everything to us. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pets. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“We were in an emergency and reached out to Rover and found Sheridan and Adam P.. So happy we did. They took immediate available care of our critical short term needs then continued super care of our 3 large dogs and cats! Snuggle time, walks, food time all went unbelievably well. And we loved all the pictures. Thanks so much!”
“Shea did a great job with my two boys while we were in Europe! She came at exactly the time she said she would every day and I loved getting a report every day-with photos-and a short note. This is the first time I’ve used Rover and she was so good about stopping by beforehand for instructions and meet and greet. My older dog needs 3 different meds and, although perhaps a challenge at first, she managed to get them down him just fine. Highly recommend!”
“Lacey took great care of our Bella! She showed up to the house on time and when she said she would. It's so hard to leave your little fur babies so but she sent lots of pictures, which was reassuring. We will definitely be using Lacey's services when we have to go out of town.”
“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter ever! Reliable, friendly, responsible and my dog adores her. I am very lucky to have asked her to watch my little dog while I was out of town!”
“Sue took excellent care of our 3 cats while we were away for the holidays. She was punctual and communicative, and she kept us up to date on everything. Including that one of our babies was experiencing some concerning symptoms. She was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond our expectations.”
About: We have taken care of all sorts of animals for many years. The more the merrier. We currently have two dogs, 3 goats (in pen) and 16 chickens (in coop) and would love to have your dog(s) join our family. Hi, Im Kari in live on a mini farm in Gilbert with my 4 kids (13-22), 2 of whom still live at home full time and 2 who bounce from home to college. I spend most of my time at home with my kids and animals....2 dogs of our own, 3 goats (in pen), and 15 chickens (in coop). I have about an acre with a fenced yard and, with in that, multiple fenced areas. We are happy welcome your dog(s) to our mini farm.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats all of my life and have spent the last two years regularly caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule, allowing me flexibility for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I pride myself on being reliable and punctual, and I work hard to accommodate pet owners’ schedules whenever possible. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I understand that pets are happiest when their normal schedule is maintained, so I carefully follow feeding instructions, exercise routines, medication schedules, and any special requests. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages during each visit, and I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. My goal is to provide dependable care and give you complete peace of mind while you’re away
“Kiersten was beyond amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely be asking for her help again:) Kiersten went out of her way to set up a meet-and-greet with our two dogs before she started dogsitting. She took great care of them, was always on time, and was extremely responsive to our messages. We felt no stress and knew our pups were in great hands. Thank you, Kiersten! So excited to have you help again soon!”
“Courtney has been consistently caring for our greyhound for over 2 months, and she's incredible! She's always communicative, respectful, quick with responding to messages and booking requests, follows directions to a "T", and accommodates our needs. Most importantly, our pup loves her! Our normally anxious boy always seems so relaxed and happy after her visits. I can't recommend Courtney enough!”
“Ben was wonderful with my little haus panther, trying to (and usually succeeding in) getting him to come out and play -- or, more accurately, do epic battle (in a playful way, of course; it's just my cat's MO/love language, lol). Lots of pics and videos. Nice to have a cat dad caring for my little guy :-)”
“Kelly is very thorough with caring for my cats, gives me great updates, and goes out of her way to do extra to make sure my cats are comfortable while we are away. She is always our go to for caring for our fur babies!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gilbert
Jessica was amazing! She was so accommodating when the app didn’t update my new address, and sent plenty of pics and updates! An amazing choice since I had to change my flight home last minute. She really cares about the wellbeing of your fur-babies 🐾 will definitely re-book with her in the future!
Shea is wonderful! She is very communicative, takes excellent pictures (I always looked forward to her Rover Cards), and sends thorough updates, which truly puts my mind at ease while we’re gone. All three cats and the house were well taken care of and we are looking forward to seeing Shea again next month!
Julissa is the epitome of what I was looking for in someone to care for my dog while Im not home. She is kind, super professional, responsive and on time. She took perfect control of my dog right from the start, asking all the right questions, and took her on a walk during our meet and greet. I cannot recommend her enough, if I could, Id give 10 stars!!
Kristine & Michael were great! This is the first time having my two cats watched after and Kristine & Michael made sure they were taken care of! My cats were shy and hid but Kristine & Michael were patient and kind with them and gave me good updates on how my cats were doing. I will definitely be using Kristine & Michael again in the future! Thank you!
Tahlia was amazing with Luna! She was attentive, punctual, communicative, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Luna in her care. Luna absolutely loved her, which says everything. I really appreciated how dependable and caring she was throughout the entire experience. Tahlia will definitely be my preferred Rover sitter moving forward, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and great with their dog!
This was my first usage of the Rover App and it won't be my last. Emma was friendly, professional, prompt, efficient, and effective. Don't let her rates mislead you into thinking you are getting less of a service. I highly recommend her and will utilize her services in the future. Great job and Thank you!
Emily is fantastic! She took great care of our three cats and I’m not sure they even missed us that much 😅 the updates and pictures were wonderful and I looked forward to those every visit, but didn’t worry at all while we were gone, which was such a relief. She followed all our instructions and was communicative, which I appreciated very much! We would definitely work with her again. Thank you, Emily!
I have a super chill elderly cat named Layla and a doggy named Penny (Princess Penelope Lane) who is scared of her own shadow, and anyone who's not her family is automatically labeled as "stranger danger." I've never seen Penny take food or pets from someone other than us, but Jessica is a true animal whisperer who's more than able. There's nothing better than receiving consistent pictures and updates while outside of the country and knowing my furry little girls and house are safe in Jessica's capable hands. We plan on looking for a new puppy to bring into the family soon, and I look forward to asking for Jessica's help in caring for them in the future. Thank you so much Jessica 😆

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.

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 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.
