“Basil was awesome with our two kitties! Felt very good that our cats were well cared for. Gave medicine to one of our cats. Responsive and helpful and even stopped by to meet them for the first time. Highly recommend Basil.”
“Jordana was so flexible with a short-notice request and with setting up time to meet our dog Magz. She seemed very experienced in dealing with our dog's reactivity to certain triggers and was great with sticking to her routine. Thank you Jordana!”
“Megan was great and anyone will be lucky to have her help. From the meet and greet through the two consecutive days for drop-ins, we were delighted after meeting her and getting updates while she visited our dog. Megan will be our go to from now on!”
“Cynthia was great with our cat! He is blind and needs daily medication so we worry about leaving him alone. She did a great job caring for him and kept us updated about his care.”
About: Responsible and reliable pet owner who will treat your pets like my own! I have two high energy pups who love to meet new friends and play in the yard. I’m also available for walks and enrichment activities during drop in visits. My schedule is varied but I I’m available up to five days a week and can accept last minute bookings! I know how stressful it is to find reliable, safe pet care and my flexible schedule allows me to be there to help others. Our dogs are all crate trained and have access to lots of in home enrichment opportunities. I have a large unfenced yard for overnight boarding, and have two very friendly female dogs who enjoy meeting new friends. I’m available for walks and drop in visits.
“I really appreciated that Paige sent me pictures every day and sent me a little note on how Chan was doing and whether he was eating or not she was really great to work with rover.com. Was not so easy to work with the website kept getting my schedule wrong.”
“Dakota met us and our GS before we left town. We were very pleased and comfortable leaving our pet under his care. He didn't just drop in to feed and walk him, he also played with him. We will never use boarding. We will differently use Dakota again when needed.”
“Caroline has been so patient with helping my dog feel comfortable with a stranger in the house. She has been a wonderful communicator and genuinely cares. Thank you!”
About: We are a family of 4 seasoned pet sitters with a genuine love for animals. For nearly three years we have been traveling with our children across the United States, providing top-notch care for homes and pets from coast-to-coast, and back again! Pet sitting has offered a wonderful way to roadschool our children and provide them with hands-on life experience, all while caring for incredible pets and homes along the way. We are seeking long term sits of 3 months+, perfect for snowbirds and those needing support while traveling abroad. Because we travel with our kids we keep our rates low, but the level of care is never compromised. I believe the pets receive more love this way, making for a win-win all around. I work from home as a debt counselor while my wife, Jenalee, homeschools our children. We're all home most days, though she may take them out for educational activities and exploring. In either event, we'll always ensure the pets have regular attention and are never left alone beyond their comfort. We take time to understand your environment, home and pets routine. We have a safety checklist to become familiar with exits, fire extinguishers, firearms, cameras, and more. I am hyper-vigilant when it comes to safety. Things happen in homes, and we're here to see to it that your home is safe and secure. Our children are amazingly respectful. If there is a space or item that's off limits, we note it and it need not be worried about. We are so fortunate that this has worked as well as it has.
“Emil is super flexible and always willing to help! He’s easy going and took my pup and kindly watched her for my first week of work. It was hard to leave her, so I appreciated all his help!”
About: I've had a dog since I was ten, and today three cats and a dog share my home right alongside me. Living with four animals under one roof means I know their routines, their moods, and their quirks by heart, and I understand exactly how much it matters to trust the right person with something that personal. That same instinct shows up in how I work. I'm a checklist person by nature: feeding times, routines, and quirks followed exactly as given, and you'll get daily photos and videos so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I'm a college student with mostly online classes, so my schedule bends around your pet instead of the other way around. I'm free for house sitting stays and drop in visits any day of the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I confirm bookings a few days ahead so you know I'm locked in well before you leave. No shift to clock into, no class to rush home for, just consistent, dependable time for whatever your pet actually needs. 👉I offer house sitting and drop in visits, which means your pet never has to leave home, no new house, no new animals, nothing unfamiliar on top of you already being away. I stick to their existing feeding, walk, and routine schedule exactly as you've set it, and keep the house locked up and lived in while you're gone. I come to your pet's world instead of asking your pet to adjust to mine, giving them my full, undivided attention until you're back😊. Services Defined: House sitting is an overnight stay: I arrive at 6pm and leave at 7am. Need daytime care? Please book drop ins. If you need me at your home for a longer stretch during the day, message me first and I’ll quote it separately. Drop ins: Drop ins are 30 minute visits during the day, with 60 minutes available. I take care of feeding, fresh water, litter, and playtime, and send you an update after every visit. Need something longer? Message me and I’ll quote it.
“Abigail is an excellent pet sitter and I strongly recommend her. I felt very comfortable with Abigail coming into my home to care for my cat. She is a kind hearted and caring person who genuinely loves pets!”
About: I have 3 adopted best friends. I have experience with dogs of all different ages and temperaments. I love going for walks and hikes with my pups. I work full time in healthcare which makes me unavailable 3 days a week. My schedule varies week to week but I am more than happy to help you on my off days. I have a fenced in yard that my 3 furry friends love to run around and play. My senior dog gets multiple walks a day. Dogs are allowed on all of my furniture but will follow any house rules provided.
About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a 10 mile run, relaxing companionship, or attentive care and routine, I’m happy to provide a safe and comfortable experience while you’re away. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to visit and play with your pets! I'm available at most times, 7 days a week. I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions. In my home, I provide a safe, supervised environment that is clean and has plenty of open space. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings while keeping their space clean and secure. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can see that your pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I don’t have professional experience as a pet sitter, but I have experience caring for dogs belonging to family members. I’m responsible, patient, and comfortable following each dog’s routine and needs. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and would treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own I have a flexible schedule and am available Monday through Saturday from 6 AM to 3 PM. Pet care fits well into my daily routine, and I’m able to provide reliable walks and drop-in visits during those hours. I enjoy spending time with animals and look forward to making pet care a regular part of my week. I care for each pet with patience, kindness, and attention to their individual needs. During walks, I make sure dogs are safe, comfortable, and get the exercise they need. During drop-in visits, I can provide fresh water, food if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I will follow the pet’s usual routine and any instructions provided by the owner, and I’ll keep you updated during each visit.
About: Your dog will be on vacation and will enjoy long walks, play time and relaxation while in my care. I can text daily pictures (if requested) and give your dog a bath before the end of their stay. I love taking care of dogs and know they will enjoy staying at my house with me. I've have been pet sitting since the 7th grade and have been the go to pet sitter for friends and family. I also watched bunnies, dogs, cats, fish, birds, hamsters and guinea pig just to name a few. I was a volunteer at the Fairfax county animal shelter for 8 months and have also worked at Petsmart. I love pets and can't wait to watch your pet. I work full time but have a flexible schedule to adjust to the times needed for dog walking/sitting to ensure they are taken care of. I also don't work on the weekend. I am available for house sitting too. I have a small fenced in yard but dogs will be going on walks with me and always in the home where they can be cozy and comfortable. If your dog love the beach let me know and they can join me on my morning walks.

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.
