“Jeremy did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. He did exactly what we asked him to do and sent photos of my cats with each visit. I would highly recommend Jeremy if you want to enjoy your time away knowing that your pets are in great hands.”
“Samuel was wonderful as always! My new kitten really warmed up to him :) and he takes great care of my senior cat on medication every time. Samuel is my go -to sitter - always reliable and really good with animals:)”
About: I’ve have always had pets growing up including farm animals. While growing up, I took care of 5 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits, chickens and some ducks. I’d be happy to help care for your pets. I currently work full time and have a 2 year old daughter. As long as we can communicate and work out a schedule, I can take care of your fur baby! I have a fenced yard with a standard sized dachshund that can help keep your fur baby. Happy! I have a two year-old daughter, the fur baby must be kid friendly. I am also able to go to the clients home and take care of your fur baby there
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I have years of experience working with dogs through professional grooming, breeding, and showing, so I’m comfortable recognizing individual needs and adjusting my care accordingly. I’m especially experienced with puppies and young dogs, including basic manners, crate routines, leash skills, grooming desensitization, and helping them build confidence in new situations. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra patience, frequent potty breaks, or a little more help getting comfortable. Because of my grooming background, I can also help maintain coats, brush pets, clean up after messy adventures, and keep an eye out for changes in their skin, coat, ears, or overall condition. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I work with animals regularly through grooming, showing, and caring for my own dogs, so feeding, potty breaks, exercise, grooming, playtime, and one-on-one attention are built into my day. I’m able to plan my schedule around the pets in my care and make sure they receive plenty of attention rather than simply being checked on between other commitments. I care for every pet based on their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, feeding according to their normal schedule, playtime, exercise, and a clean, comfortable environment. I can accommodate crates and other routines they are accustomed to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, medications when instructed, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care requests. I also make sure their space stays clean and secure. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: I grew up with all kinds of different animals-dogs, cats, horses, fish, rabbits, ducks, etc- and love animals. We own our home so we don't have any landlords to answer to or worry about, our house has a fenced yard with 7,500 square feet to play and run. In our home we have three children ( 2, 4 & 6). My kids has been all kinds of animals before. We also have two cats. We are also usually home most holidays if you need care during any of the holiday seasons. The kids and I are home all day most days, give or take a sports activity but those aren't usually very long and are often close to the house. I have a 6 ft tall fenced backyard to play in. Sleeping arrangements are totally separate for my animals and guest animals. There is no unsupervised time between my kids/animals and guests.
“Alana was great. She did a drop in for my two dogs. We had a small miscommunication about what was needed and she fixed it immediately with an additional drop in. My dogs were happy and healthy when we got home.”
“Heather was amazing watching my cats last minute! I had to leave town last minute, but she was able to come by that afternoon and meet my cats! She was in contact with me the entire time and it was such a relief to know my sweet cats were being looked after! Thank you so much Heather!”
“This was my first time having Shelly in our home. She was prompt, had good communication and easy to talk to and she was very in tune with my dog. He was relaxed around her and she asked all the right questions. We will definitely be requesting her again for future dates.”
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life. My first best friend was my dog Sugar, a pug that would travel the world with me and always be down for belly rubs and walks! After Sugar passed away, I got my first cat (Ninja) and once he turned 15 he kept my grandparents company as a professional cuddler. I now have 4 cats, and walk my neighbors dog all the time/dog watch. I love animals and my life wouldn't be the same without them! I'm super energetic and responsible, and i'm happiest when I'm with my furry friends! I'm in college part time and working so my schedule is really flexible, so I figured the best way for me to spend my free time is with other animals!

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.
