“Tiffany is amazing! When we got our puppy we were worried what we would do when we were both working. Tiffany took all that worry and threw it out the door. She is flexible, trustworthy, and takes great care of our puppy while we’re gone. I would highly recommend her!”
“Madison was great with our Dalmatian, Dash! We had Madison come in for 3 days to do drop in visits with our Dalmatian while we were gone for Thanksgiving. She was great and took time to feed, water and play with Dash each day! Would highly recommend Madison for your pet needs.”
About: I’ve done overnight pet and house sitting for several years and different clients, as well as drop/in visits to feed, care, and keep pets company while owners are away. I work a full time day job during the week and am free most evenings and weekends. I work my day job the first Saturday of every month. I have a fenced in yard and have experience with crated and non-crated situations. The physical and emotional wellbeing of your pet is of the utmost importance.
About: I love dogs and dogs love me! I worked at Blue Springs Animal Hospital and Pet Resort for a whole year and absolutely loved it! I cared for animals right out of surgery and regulars boarding patients too. I am very qualified to care for your loving pet because I can do anything from making sure his or her medicine is distributed on time to running a mile with your pup. I have experience with it all. At the animal hospital we were required to potty walk the pups in rain or shine so you can guarantee your pup will be potty walked no matter what when they are in my care. I strive in making happy pets because a happy pet is a happy owner! I drop my son off at school at 8ma and pick him up at 11am so I am available between those times in the morning. I am also available after 4pm once my husband gets home to take care of our son. I will monitor your pets to the best of my ability!

About: I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats who need a little extra attention. Through caring for my own pets and pet sitting for family over the years, I’ve gained experience following feeding schedules, administering medications when needed, monitoring behavior for any changes, and making sure pets stay comfortable and stress-free in their own homes. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether that’s caring for a playful kitten, giving extra patience to a shy cat, or keeping an active dog on their normal routine.

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. 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 , 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 .
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.
