“Amy did a great job checking on our two cats while we were out of town. She was very attentive to the cats needs and we could tell they got lots of affection and play time during Amy’s visits. We highly recommend and plan to book with Amy in the future.”
“Emily has been such a wonderful support for our 5 month old puppy. His adjustment from summer mom to teacher mom has been eased with her drop ins. We love the cute photos and he is happy mid day!”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life and have had pets since I was 5 years old. I currently have two cats who I am the primary care giver. My late dog, Mara (a black lab), became diabetic when she was 11. For the last 3 years of her life, I administered her insulin shots twice a day. From March 2019-March 2020, I volunteered at CARE Skokie and have watched friend’s cats and dogs over the years while they were away. Animal welfare means a lot to me and I understand the importance of providing consistent and loving care. I would love to have the opportunity to be of service to you and your four-legged family member(s)! I recently resigned from my job in Wealth Management and am focusing on doing things that are more fulfilling and I love animals. I am currently working part time at a local garden shop and have a flexible schedule that allows me time to tend to your pet(s) as needed! I grew up with a dog and have two cats at home who I am the primary care giver for. I am an advocate for all animals to be well taken care of and understand the importance of their needs being met through consistency and loving care.
“Mario was great for our dogs and really cared for them while we were out of town. We were worried leaving during fireworks since one is terrified, but he calmed him down great! Mario was very informative and replied quickly. We will definitely use him again!”
“Andrew was wonderful. My two standard Poodles liked him right off the bat. He was communicative, punctual and always happy with a smile on his face even when it rained.”
“Susan is amazing!! Our two cats were in excellent care while we were away and we are so thankful to Susan for giving us that peace of mind! We got the best daily reports and pictures on how they were doing which we looked forward to every day that we were away. One of our cats is particularly shy and even he grew very comfortable around Susan very quickly, we were so impressed! We will definitely be reaching out for pet sitting care again. Thank you so much for your excellent care of our little guys!!”
About: I’m a passionate, reliable pet caregiver with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals. I grew up surrounded by pets and have turned that lifelong love into a career, working with pet families, in pet retail at stores. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers a calm, patient companion, I’ll provide attentive, loving care and treat them like part of my own family. I have a lot of spare time on my hands so I could use that time to care for your pet! I am your pet Nannie around the corner. I have experience dog walking, so I understand how it goes. I also have lots of experience playing with pets. I have a huge passion for pets
“Brittany did a great job taking care of my cat! She was always on time for her visits and provided detailed updates and pictures after every check-in, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive, caring, and made sure my cat was well taken care of and got plenty of love and attention. I really appreciated her communication and reliability. I would definitely recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Lisa took fantastic care of my boy Frank! She sent me photo and video updates as well as cleaned up any food/litter spillage Frank created. She responded very quickly and I will definitely book her again!”
“Fantastic loving care for my 2 dogs! I have a shy senior rescue and a skittish young dog who both take time to warm up to strangers. We scheduled basic check ins/potty breaks over 4 days that they had to be home alone for 8+ hrs each day. The meet and greet went really well and was easy to set up. Each day my pups received a full 30 minutes of attention and loving care. I received MANY photos and videos as well as really awesome communication and updates. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I'm Livia, and animals have been my whole world for as long as I can remember. Over the years my husband and I have had our own four dogs, two bunnies, and two ducks (yes, really!), so "a little bit of everything" is genuinely our specialty. We don't have any pets of our own right now, which is actually one of the best things about your furry friend staying with us. Your pet gets the run of the house with no resident animals to negotiate with, which is a huge relief for shy, anxious, or reactive dogs/cats who just need room to decompress. And there's a LOT of room. Our entire downstairs is 2,000 square feet and completely open to our guests, with dog beds tucked into every room so they can pick their favorite spot. Outside is a full fenced-in acre yard: space to run, sniff, and roll around in the grass without ever needing a trip to the park. Best of all, at least one of us is home all day, every day. Your pet is never left alone and never crated (unless you'd prefer them to be crated). We're happy handling puppies still learning the rules, seniors who need a gentler pace, medications on a schedule, and nervous pets who need someone patient. And if anything ever were to come up, we're literally a two-minute drive from three different emergency vet clinics. We're looking forward to welcoming your pet! My husband and I both work from home, which is the whole reason we're able to do this so well. There's no window where the house is empty - someone is always here, in the same room (usually being used as a pillow by one of our guests!). That means your pet's routine gets to stay your pet's routine. Whatever their feeding schedule is, we'll keep it. Meds at 7am and 7pm? Done. A dog who needs a mid-afternoon nap in a quiet room, or one who wants to be outside every hour on the hour? Also fine. We're not working around a commute, so we can build the day around them instead of the other way around. You'll get a few photos and updates a day, so you can see exactly how they're settling in. And we always do a meet-and-greet before booking, so everyone (including your pet) knows who they're staying with before the first night. Our yard is a full fenced acre behind a 6-foot privacy fence, so there's serious room to run with no gaps to squeeze through. Inside, our whole downstairs (about 2,000 square feet) is open to our guests, with dog beds in every room so they can pick their preferred spot. Cats stay upstairs in their own quiet, private bedrooms with the doors closed, completely separate from any dogs. We don't have pets of our own, so nobody's defending their territory when your pet walks in. Every booking starts with a meet-and-greet, and if we're hosting more than one family at a time, new dogs meet slowly and on leash in the yard before they're ever loose together. If any pair isn't a match, they get separated. Someone is home 24/7, so your pet is never left alone. We're comfortable with medications, senior pets who need a gentler pace, and nervous ones who need time. And we're literally a two-minute drive from three emergency vet clinics if anything ever were to come up.
About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. I get along with all my neighbors’ dogs and my neighbors rely on me to take care of them some times. My old roommate has a golden retriever and I love taking care of him, giving him a bath and walking him. I have two cats at home and I even taught them some tricks! I’m currently working part time only on Mondays and Thursdays. So I have lots of free time outside of work taking care of your dogs and playing with them! I also have a car so I can drive to wherever you are and take your dogs for a walk where they are the most comfortable with. I live right next to the bike trail and woods, which is a paradise for dogs! If you have an athletic or active dog, I’ll take your dog running the trails, swimming in the pond, and have all the fun in the outside world! If your dog is less active, I’ll give your dog all the comfort and love at home, making sure they are well fed and entertained.
“Kimberly was wonderful! It was stressful leaving our cat for a week, so it was a relief knowing she was being so well cared for. We will definitely check to see if Kimberly is available again.”
About: I grew up with a lot of pets and have done pet sitting and dog walking for the last 4 years. I have several regular families that I pet sit for and do regular dog walking. I am currently doing online classes to finish my college degree. I have a lot of free time to myself and can travel anywhere in the city to take care of your dogs. I take particular care to follow instructions for your dog, making sure to walk them and feed them at the right time. I also make sure your home is clean and well kept after I leave.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Golf
Jiayi was terrific! She kept Me updated with excellent photos of the cats and chores completed, feeding, litter, taking in mail. She was very thorough with daily communication. The Cats are happy and calm and the house is as I left it. I would definitely use her again!
Rosy was great! Both of my cats need pills and one is particularly adept at hiding in general, so we were worried about how he would react. She tried various strategies to get a pill in him, and even though it was unsuccessful in the end, I really appreciated her tenacity. She sent pictures and very reassuring updates after each visit.
Tiffany checked in on my cat, Tofu, while I was gone on a week long trip. She was very communicative and sent lots of cute pics. She brought an issue with our automatic feeder to our attention and went above and beyond to help us trouble shoot the issue. Tofu loved Tiffany and we will be booking her again in the future
Helen was awesome! Our cat is very anxious and requires a transdermal medicine and Helen was able to handle our cat really well. She was able to give proactive updates about her. She was thorough in understanding our cat's needs. We will be booking with her again for sure!

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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
