“Julie took such good care of my two fur babies. She even got my skittish Calamity to play. If it’s ok with her, I will definitely use her again in the future. Thanks, Julie. From Stripe and Calamity.”
“Donovan did a fantastic job watching over my pet while I was on vacation. In the past I had never used a pet sitter, but I really wanted to take a good vacation away from home, and not be worrying about my pet everyday. Donovan took away that stress and went above and beyond making sure my cat was well taken care of. Thank you!”

I also have experience with bath and brush out, nail trims, and teeth brushing if your pets need a little extra R&R!

“Jordyn did an excellent job. She has very patient and loving to our sometimes skittish and bashful kitty. She even got her to come from under the bed and play. Also, Jordyn took my trash out and wiped down the kitchen counters, great job, thanks you very much. I will definitely call Jordyn the next time we are away. I appreciated all you did.”

About: Hi! I’m Tyler, a dedicated pet lover and experienced dog walker. As a proud pet parent to two wonderful cats and two playful Golden Retrievers, I understand the love, care, and attention that pets need. Whether your pup is energetic and adventurous or prefers a slow, relaxed stroll, I tailor each walk to their unique personality and needs. I love all dogs and treat every furry friend as if they were my own. Let’s make every walk a fun and safe adventure! I work from home with a highly flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable dog walking and pet care for dogs and/or cats at any time needed. I provide attentive and personalized care to ensure your pet’s comfort and well-being. Walks are tailored to each dog’s energy level and needs, whether it’s a brisk exercise session or a leisurely stroll. Potty breaks are given as needed, and I follow any specific routines to maintain consistency. If crating is part of your pet’s routine, I ensure they are safely and comfortably settled. For cats, I provide feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and companionship based on their preferences. My goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away.
“Ruth did a great job with drop in visits to care for my 2 cats while gone on vacation. I received pictures every visit and updates on how they were. Despite my older cat Milly being a bit antisocial, Leo warmed up to her immediately and loved the extra attention he received. Ruth cleaned my rugs where Milly had spit up, even offering to launder them. It was a relief knowing they were being cared for while we were gone.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I started just walking dogs, and then progressed to watching family/friends dogs while they were on weekend trips/ vacations once I was able to drive. On top of watching other peoples animals, I’ve always had animals of my own, so I’ve been around Dogs/Cats my whole life. I am due in November, and I won’t be working once I have my baby. My schedule is completely open and my Dog is looking for a friend to have a sleepover 🩵 I have 3 acres and lots of room for dogs to run around and play! My dog gets along with any kind of dog, so your fur baby will have a friend the whole time! If you would like your dog crated, I can do that as well.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds. From tiny puppies to big adventure buddies, I’ve always been the one in charge of walking them, caring for them, and making sure they feel safe and loved. Since I was young, I’ve helped care for family and friends’ dogs, and I’ve gained lots of hands-on experience with puppies along the way. I truly love dogs, and I’d be excited to give yours the same attention and care I give my own! I work part-time Tuesday through Thursday, and I’m usually done by 12 PM, which means I have lots of free time to spend with your pets! 🐾My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and making sure your furry friend gets plenty of attention. Outside of work, I love spending time with animals, so pet care fits perfectly into my routine. Whether your pup needs a midday adventure, some company while you’re away, or just someone to spoil them with belly rubs and treats, I’m happy to help! 🐶🐱💛 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐾 Since I live in an apartment, I’ll be providing care in your home and taking your pets on walks rather than bringing them to my place. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet stays in a safe and comfortable environment. For walks, I’ll always keep your pet’s safety in mind by using their leash properly, paying attention to our surroundings, and following any special instructions you provide. I also want your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, so I’ll take the time to build trust, give them plenty of attention, and make their time with me as happy and stress-free as possible. 🐶🐱💛
About: I’ve been around dogs & cats my whole life taking care of them and I have a 3 year old and 4 month old fur baby right now! I will treat your baby like my own! When my family needs a pet sitter I’m usually the one they call! I currently work a full- time job but I am more than willing to keep your pup occupied while I’m at work if they stay with me if I do drop-ins I will do it before and after work! I do not have a yard but I am more than willing to bring your pup on walks and play fetch with them in my condo! I do have 2 female dogs that would love a friend to play with!
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs extra playtime or a shy cat who just wants quiet companionship, I adapt to each animal’s personality. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and experienced with everything from basic care to administering medications. My goal is to give pets a stress-free, comforting experience while keeping you updated and worry-free. I'm currently studying for my exams and only working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur babies! I am available 7 days a week, from 10am-9pm. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks, playtime in the yard, tug-of-war, fetch, or just some good old belly rubs and snuggles. For cats, I’ve got feather wands, laser pointers, and cozy cuddle sessions covered (if they’re the snuggly type, of course!). I love creating a happy, low-stress environment where your pets can relax, play, and enjoy their day while you're away. Whether they’re high-energy or more laid-back, I’ll match their vibe and make sure they have a purr-fectly wonderful time! 🐶🐱💛

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young. As an adult I got involved in helping train law enforcement dogs. After replying I came back and decided to become a professional dog trainer. I work overnight shifts a few days a week but am available most days during the day. I spend a lot of time working with my own dogs and can offer training if you are interested.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.
