“Hailey went above and beyond when it came to checking in on my cat Seamus. She brought a toy for him to play with, and she even clipped his claws. That means a lot to me since I'm not physically able to clip his claws myself due to only having one functioning arm. I'd recommend Hailey to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!”
“Erica is a very hard working lady and she is willing to do whatever it takes to earn our kitties trust while we're away. I felt totally at ease knowing that they were in her capable hands. She even checked on them on her own time just to be sure they were okay. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
“Charlene is terrific! So patient and kind with my two crazy dogs. Couldn’t ask for a better, more loving person to check in on them. She has been more than willing to spend time with my large dog who has terrible anxiety and isn’t great with strangers but he took to her immediately which is how I knew I made the right choice when choosing her as a sitter. So thankful we found her!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life, as a four years ago I got an orange cat and could not choose between either for the life of me. I cannot wait to meet and take care of your fur babies :) I am currently in nursing school only taking up 2 to 3 days a week. I am now available for boarding at my home so feel free to look into that as well!! I make sure that the bowls are always full, or their food has been given on time along with medication if needed. I also make sure they are getting as much outside time as they can get.
“Amber is the best and cares for my girl so well. Julia is an anxious pup who loves people and amber makes sure to spend lots of time and cuddles with her. She is very personable and respectful of your home! If you need a dog sitter, I recommend!”
About: Nice calm environment, lots of love and snuggles and a small yard. I do train dogs also and will gladly work with yours while I have them. I will house train your dog for you if you need me to, that is an extra $20 a day. Generally takes about 4-5 days depending on dog and age, and your followup is key to long term success. I work mostly from home, so am available for love and attention, and for frequent breaks, and short walks. I will take them to run errands etc if you are ok with that. I can keep your pet in a crate if you so desire, but I’m also good with them on the couch with me, going with me to run errands etc.
“Alexis is absolutely amazing, super flexible and our life saver in a chaotic situation between hubby's work and myself not being in town. We appreciate her so much and so long as she's not already booked, will be choosing her every time!”
About: I had plenty of dogs. I love dogs of all kinds. Unfortunately cant have any right now. Will play with them walk them when I can. I have a full time job but can check on them during my break. Im working full time 40+ hours a week. I can check on them during my breaks, and on my days off i stay with them all day. We currently don't have any pets. We don't have a fence in yard and live close to a highway where most people drive like crazy.
About: I have about 6 year experience with dogs any where from puppies to seniors. I have trained dogs mine included. His name is bullet and he is 4. I work during the week so I’ll be available weekends and some evenings. Time will vary but I will accept as much as I can I’ve got a fenced in yard I live on a large property. I have two dogs very sweet and I don’t like next to a road.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I love doing it. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule. Staying overnight is not a problem or coming by during the day can be done as well. I have a fenced yard to keep your fur babies safe, but still enough room to play around. I don't leave them alone outside I'm always around.
About: PLEASE READ ENTIRE PROFILE BEFORE BOOKING! I strive to mimic the way pet owners daily routine including feeding instructions, play time, bedtime routines, and we writing in between. I have handler certification through DHA Handler Academy. I am an open book and would be happy to answer any questions. I do currently have a full time job that I am very dedicated to (yes, dog related)! My work hours are 8am to 6pm with an hour commute in each direction. Drop ins would be done before going in and when I get off work (yes, it's a long period in between- I'm not for everyone). On my days off, your pup would have my undivided attention. House sitting: I would stay at your house, but again, I work a full time job and would be away for that on my scheduled days. I personally have 4 dogs, all with different personalities and energy levels. I have a 8 foot wood privacy fence. In the back yard i have designated sniff spots to keep your pups entertained. The back yard also includes a dog house equipped with AC & Heat that is accessible through a doggie door! Inside contains water and beds and blankets. I'm half tempted to add a TV so that will be coming soon! I have a camera in my house for me to see and cameras surrounding the house as well. I have not had an escapee as of yet (KNOCK ON WOOD)! As for your home, whatever you do, I will do! I am pretty quick to adapt to routines and such!
About: I have a wide variety of experience between helping you continue manner training, to grooming small dogs. When I’m not loving on your dog, I’m loving mine. Helping pets feel their best is my passion, so seeing your dog multiple times a day will make me happy. I do rover full time Maintaining your house rules including your dog’s training and safety are top priority. Keeping track of your dogs behavior and making a relationship is imperative.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring pet sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. I offer drop-in visits, house sitting, and dog walking, and I’m happy to tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping your pet company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels. From playful puppies and active dogs to senior pets and shy or independent cats, I understand that every animal needs a different approach. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of routines, which helps pets feel at ease in their own home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I’m able to provide consistent check-ins, unrushed walks, and attentive in-home care. Because I plan my day around my Rover commitments, I’m reliable with timing, communication, and updates. I always send photos and notes so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
“Adelaide did an amazing job with even our most anxious pup. She took her time and gave them all the time they needed to run and have social interaction. She kept us updated and shared pictures and videos to help ease our worries about leaving the pups behind. We will be using her again!”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gun Barrel City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
