“Kristina was amazing with my babies and it made me much more comfortable leaving for my trip knowing that they were in good hands. It’s important to me to find a sitter that loves my dogs as much as I do and I’m so glad we found Kristina and Justin. Thank you so much for everything, I will definitely be rebooking whenever I need/can!”
“Megan is so great with our two Great Danes. She always makes sure to update us with pictures and what the dogs get up to. She has really helped us out and is so flexible with scheduling which I sincerely appreciate. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Cassie was great! We needed a sitter with sort notice and she was happy to help us. Our GSDs are a little particular but they warmed up to her quickly. She had great communication and we felt our dogs were being well taken care of.”
“Morgan was fantastic! We decided to try Rover for the first time after moving and were hesitant. Morgan stopped by before we left town to meet the animals and they loved her. We felt like we were leaving our dog and cat in good hands. She was prompt for the scheduled check in times and went above and beyond. Next time we go out of town we will definitely use Morgan again!”
“This was the first time ever using a pet sitter. We could not have asked for anyone better to take care of our kitties. Elizabeth went above and beyond what we expected and made our trip so much less stressful We will definitely use Elizabeth again! Highly recommend!”
About: I have been around dogs and cats my whole life. I currently am an owner of a rescue puppy that I have had since he was 2 months old! I love any breed, any age of dog or cat! I’m a law graduate that is awaiting my bar results, so I’m available throughout the day! I’m available for walks on the weekend and throughout the week. I have my own dog that is high energy so we go on multiple walks a day. I will make sure that your dog is safe on the sidewalk is available or throughout your neighborhood. With permission I know of greenways in the area or parks if the dog is allowed to travel with me.
“Katrina went above and beyond. She took care of our cats with kindness and thoughtfulness throughout our 3 week long trip. She even left my wife and I a sweet honeymoon gift on our counter when we returned home. Her communication and check in were excellent.”
About: I have had both cats and dogs almost my entire life and have worked as a Veterinarian Technician in an animal shelter and for a small family owned Vet. I strive to bring my knowledge and love for animals to my community so that pet care can be more affordable for regular people (such as myself). With the knowledge I have gathered from both working in office, having pets, sitting family pets, and my many years of pet grooming I hope to make my home a safe haven for your pet. We can also discuss natural treatments for pets which I've studied for a while now when it comes to specific breeds, mixed breeds, and their genetic ailments. I will soon be making all natural dog & cat treats for pets. I can also train pets through the treat/clicker system which has worked well for all of my pets and a plenty of others. If you would like for me to train them please let me know. Please contact me directly. I currently work from home and have a really flexible schedule. More than likely your pet will stay in the room with me (if they choose as i love cuddles as much as they might). Your pet can also hang out in the living room if they choose. They will go outside as many times as needed through the day until I get off at 5:30pm which then we will go for a walk. I also have a back yard. In which I will allow them to exert any additional energy throughout the day. I care for pets by paying attention to them and understanding the small hints they give indicating what they need at that time. I also create a potty schedule based on the dogs water/food intake to avoid accidents. I have no pets at the time so your pet will have my full attention. If permitted by the owner, I will groom, bathe, and train their pets.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and animals my entire life, raised puppies and nursed elderly dogs! Definitely a passion of mine. I’ve trained a few rescues as well. I work part time so I’m home quite often, other than that I spend my free time hiking or taking walks with my own pup Willow. Open spaced home, great walking neighborhood with dog park only .10 mile away. Willow I’ve raised since a puppy, she’s a 6 year old lab who is insanely affectionate and energetic, and beyond sweet. She does get overly excited meeting new dogs, and loves making new friends! It’s different for each sitting and depends on what each owner is looking for. I will not take on opportunities that I can’t be fully invested and present for. Plenty of free time to accommodate your pups needs! Communication with other owners is vital from both ends to be sure everyone is taken care of and happy.
About: I have 8 years of pet care experience, providing reliable feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship while ensuring pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m a military spouse and I have access to the Airforce Base I’m a student, but pets are part of my everyday routine!

I keep pets on their usual routine, offering meals, walks, playtime, and attention, creating a safe, loving space where they feel secure and cared for.

Puppy Patience & Routine: I know how crucial consistency is for younger dogs. I will gladly reinforce your house-training rules, basic command structures, and positive behavior techniques. Anxious or Shy Dog Care: Because I understand dog behavior, I know how to give nervous pups their space to adjust, building trust gently at their own pace. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekend routine as a focused part-time commitment. Availability: Friday 5:00 PM – Monday 8:00 AM pickup. Service Options: Dog sitting at your home or overnight boarding at mine. Yard & Safety: Secure, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor exercise and play.

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.
