“Tara was incredibly helpful and friendly dog sitter for our big & anxious dog, Maddie! She was very on top of communication throughout the process, and went above and beyond in helping with cleanup, keeping a close eye on her and asking questions about anything that worried her. She has very flexible hours and clearly doted on our pup. Would happily book her again!”
About: I've taken care of my own chihuahuas and cats when my parents have gone on trips, I have had an experience of house sitting for my mom's friends dog. Living with animals has also taught me how to provide proper care. I currently work at Park Padel which can vary in schedule. On weekdays I either work 8:30 am - 4 pm or 3 - 10:30 pm. On weekends I either work 7:30 am - 2:30 pm or 1:30 pm - 8:30 pm. I still have plenty of time for drop in visits, walks, or any other pet sitting needs before or after work. I can accommodate to any type of environment/living situation and make your pets feel safe with me in their home. I hope to give your pets the best experience possible in their own home
About: I have worked in dog hotels as an overnight caretaker (no humans, just dogs), I have been a dog walker and a dog owner for nearly my whole life. I trained our family service dog (recently passed) on my own and got her professionally certified. I am home everyday as a homeschooling mom. Your pet is a part of the family while they are here. My kids and I are a chill group, Dogs are a natural fit. I have a small deck in the back, my kids and I go on walks constantly, the dogs are welcome on the beds and on the couches. My home is their home.
“Michelle did drop in visits for my two cats. They enjoyed having her and she did a good job interacting with them when they wanted it and giving them space if they weren't up for it. She was communicative and capable. I'm planning to book her again for me next trip!”
About: Hi! I’m a longtime dog lover with years of fostering experience. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and everything in between, all with their own personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with long walks, playtime, and giving pups the patience and attention they need. I currently have a flexible schedule and would love to spend some of my extra time outside with some furry company :) I currently have a flexible schedule Monday through Thursday and am available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty break, some playtime, or just a little company and a cozy day inside, I’m happy to work with their usual routine. Every dog has their own needs, so I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure your dog is happy, safe, and comfortable. I’m happy to help with walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and oral medication as needed. I’ll be attentive to your dog and their surroundings and always respectful of your home and personal space.
“Natalie was a great cat sitter. She was very communicative and so helpful and accommodating while I was traveling. She was positive and proactive with making recommendations on how to care for my cat who is very stressed around strangers—and was a total jerk to Natalie. She handled it incredibly well.”
“Luke has become my go-to dog walker/sitter on Rover. He has always responded quickly, carefully follows instructions to take care of my high-needs dog, and shows great care and patience for my pet. I definitely recommend reaching out to Luke for support. He's been amazing for my sweet pup.”
“Joey was friendly, communicative (and fast to respond), always on time, and really bonded well with my dog very quickly. Very thankful to have worked with Joey and definitely recommend her to others.”
“Martin and Robert were great! They came on time and spent the entire half hour playing with our two pups, sent photo updates and let us know both pups did their business. Will absolutely reach out to them in the near future. Highly recommend!”
About: I've loved dogs even before my family got our first dog. Taking on extra responsibilities for our first dog was so exciting, and now it's all I want to do. Knowing how much I love dogs, all sorts of friends and family members have come to me for help. I just graduated from college and have moved back home to San Francisco. I am very excited to be back and get to know some dogs in the area! I would care for your dogs by paying attention to whatever needs they may have. I'd walk them, feed them, and take them outside, and I would be able to crate them if needed.
“Frank has been a fantastic dog walker! He’s always punctual, communicates clearly, and provides detailed updates after every walk. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loves him. Highly recommend!”
“Dena took care of my dogs during our 5-hour vow renewal ceremony and photoshoot, which involved going to three different locations — and she was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly reliable and kept in great communication the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dogs loved her right away, and it was clear she genuinely cared about them. Dena even went above and beyond to help out throughout the day. I don’t trust my dogs with just anyone, but I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and professional dog sitter. She’s the best! 🐾”
About: Hi there! My name is Anna, and I LOVE dogs! A few things to know about me: 1. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, starting with my parents’ dog. In my early 20s, I adopted my sweet pit bull, Juno, who had some reactivity tendencies. I’ve worked with her patiently over the years, and she’s made so much progress. 2. I also have experience caring for senior dogs who have lots of little quirks, routines, and extra needs. 3.Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with dogs and want them to feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’d love to hear a little about your dog and their personality, and see if I’d be a good fit to take care of your sweet fur baby! I work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule for walking doggies. I typically start with a long morning walk, a small afternoon walk, and then a longer night walk before bed. I love snuggling and playing with the dogs I watch (if that's what they like). I also make sure the space is pet friendly/safe.
About: Hello! I’ve been walking and sitting animals for more than a decade, and love making new furry friends. I’ve cared for puppies and older dogs, high-energy and anxious animals. I have a wily, wonderful pug-mix at home who loves a chance to socialize, too. I currently work from home, for myself, so I have room to take on clients in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Weekends and weekdays both work! I approach all new animals with sensitivity and respect for their space and needs. I love getting to know a dog and learning their personality traits, favorite routes, and funny quirks. This helps me get to know what they need, when.
“Carmen did a great job taking of care of my cat when I was away for a weekend. From the start, she was quick to respond to my messages and a clear communicator. She inquired about all the details of my cat’s care. As a plus, she gave me updates when she was checking in and even sent me some stellar portrait mode photos of my cat ?”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life! Love being around dogs, whether it be playing and running or just chilling on the couch. Recently moved to a place where I can’t have pets, so caring for other people’s fur babies is the next best thing! I work a full time desk job, so I have plenty of energy to play, run around, and be active with dogs throughout the day. They give me an excuse to get away from my desk! Years and years of caring for dogs has given me the experience of identifying the comfort level of animals. I am honest and trustworty. I want to keep my regulars and want them to trust that I will care for their precious animals.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glenridge
We’ve got an anxious dog Tucker and Gil listened very carefully to what his boundaries were and did an amazing job of making him feel comfortable. They’ve been on several walks at this point and he always seems to have a good time, and fully recommend Gil for any walks/dropins/house sitting!
I was going on vacation and needed some help looking after my old rat who has a hard time eating. Even though Benjamin didn't have experience with rats he was very open minded in taking her on! He was great with communication and was very thoughtful in taking notes and asking detailed questions to give my rat the best care possible. Thanks so much Benjamin!
K Zin did a great job updating me on my cats while I was away. Jupie and Jasper seem to be comfortable and liked her when they met. This was a reassuring feeling leaving my cats to be in good care. Would definitely book again in the future whenever I need someone to look after my cats 😄
Xinyuan was amazing! She watched our very shy cat for about a week and, by the end, our cat was comfortably playing around her. Xinyuan was very communicative, especially when we sometimes sent day-to-day requests about things like a litter box incident and a bout of zoomies knocking some items over. She sent detailed updates with the cutest photos. We'll definitely be booking again!

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.
