About: I’ve cared for pets personally for years and understand the importance of routines, exercise, attention, and patience. I’m reliable and focused on making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while owners are away. I’m very flexible during the week/weekend and respond quickly! Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work regular daytime hours and have evenings and weekends available. I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets attention while keeping owners updated. I also work 5 minutes away from my house, and I have flexibility over my schedule completely so it makes things much easier. I prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. During dog walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert to surroundings to ensure safe, controlled walks. When pet sitting in homes, I carefully follow all instructions, keep pets on their normal routines, and make sure the home is secure before leaving. For cat check-ins, I provide food, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and calm attention based on each cat’s comfort level. I always respect each pet’s personality and boundaries and aim to keep them safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away.
“Absolutely amazing! LeeAnna took her time and kept me updated every step of the way. My dogs were in wonderful hands. She spent so much time with my babies it was a comfort knowing they were well taken care of.”
“Alexis is amazing. She is incredibly flexible and understanding. As a veterinarian, I have a demanding job with long days. I’ve had to shift my schedule last minute due to patients, and Alexis has been there for us to make sure my pets are taken care of. I cannot thank her enough!”
About: Hi! I’m Cate. I’ve be taking care of cats and dogs since I was little. Cats with attitude don’t scare me—my baby at home is a tortieshell.😂 I’m used to all dogs, from pitties to chihuahuas, and I’d love to meet yours. I usually have work from 9 to 5 everyday except for Sunday and Monday. I can be there in the morning and in the evening. I’m open to anything you need done to keep your baby happy. Feeding, cleaning up, keeping company, etc. I know sometimes they just get lonely while we’re away, and so if you need me to spend a couple extra minutes playing fetch or giving cuddles, it’s no strain on me.

About: Hi! My name is Whitley and I have been pet sitting since I was in high school. Now at nearly 25, I still have a profound love for pets big or small. I have a feisty senior Australian Shepherd with medical issues and two cats. I know how difficult leaving your pet behind can be. Rest assured that when you leave your fur baby with me, they receive the utmost care and are treated like my own. I am currently a part-time student and have a small job working at daycares in the community. With that being said, I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I try to be available for any last minute bookings, including weekends. Due to my senior dog's medical issues, I unfortunately cannot house sit at this time. However, I am available most hours of the day. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, and playtime. I provide plenty of love for your pet, and if your pet is shy, plenty of space. With my high energy australian shepherd, I have become accustomed to long play sessions indoors and outdoors. I provide photo updates and communicate regularly.

About: Hi! My name is Jessica, and I am a proud dog mama with a lifelong love for animals. I have been caring for dogs and cats for more than 20 years and understand that our pets are much more than animals—they are cherished members of the family. When you’re away, my goal is to provide the same love, attention, patience, and care that I would want for my own pets. Over the years, I have cared for pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, feeding schedules, administering medications, overnight and extended house sitting, senior pet care, puppy care, and supporting pets that experience anxiety, separation stress, or need extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime and belly rubs, or simply relaxing with a familiar companion, I am committed to providing attentive, reliable care tailored to their needs. I know how important communication is for pet parents, so I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away. As someone who genuinely loves animals, I strive to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. My goal is for you to return home to a happy, well-cared-for pet who feels loved and secure. I would be honored to care for your furry family members and look forward to meeting both you and your pets! 🐾❤️ I work full-time as an attorney during the week, which means I understand the importance of reliability, communication, and following detailed instructions. I am available for morning and evening drop-in visits, walks, feedings, playtime, and medication administration before and after work on weekdays. I also have greater flexibility on weekends and most holidays, making me a great option for weekend getaways, holiday travel, and regular pet care needs. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine and will always provide timely updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Safety, comfort, and consistency are my top priorities when caring for your pets. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions so they can remain comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I have experience caring for puppies and kittens, senior pets, anxious pets, and animals that require medication or extra attention. My primary focus is providing care in your pet’s home, where they can remain in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Whether that includes walks, feeding, administering medication, playtime, litter box care, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to treating your pets with the same love and attention I would give my own. As an attorney, I understand the importance of trust, reliability, and attention to detail. You can count on me to follow instructions carefully, respect your home, and provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. If boarding in my home is needed, I can accommodate pets on a case-by-case basis. I have dogs of my own, so visiting pets would be safely separated to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety. My goal is always to provide a secure, loving, and low-stress experience for both pets and their owners.
About: I've frequently house- and pet-sat for family friends and their three dogs. I love taking care of your animals as if they were my own!

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 Hamilton 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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.
