“Ashley is great with animals, knowledgeable, and very caring! I noticed my dog Lady is always in a good mood when Ashley stops by to play and walk her. I’m so impressed and happy to have a trustworthy sitter to go to in the future!”
About: I've been dog sitting for a little over 8 years now for friends and family. I started dogsitting for clients at the salon I used to work for. I own 2 dogs myself one of which is 11 and the other is 5! I love cats and dogs so much and I can't wait to have my own house to adopt as many as I can! I currently don't own any cats but I can't wait to in the future! I currently am working as a full time bank teller Monday-Saturday at the Polish National Credit Union! I'd love to be available for overnights during the week for your pet and then just go to work during the day. The weekends I'm usually available full time for petsitting! I'm very flexible with what needs to be taken care of for your pet! I can take them on walks or for car rides. I can play fetch for as long as they want outside. Obviously take them out for potty and feed them give them treats. I can cuddle with them or brush them. I have taken care of a blind dog before so I can give them eyedrops or medications as well!
“Victoria was fantastic. Very responsive made herself available came as requested asked questions when needed and took care of my little kitty cats while I was gone for a few days thank you Victoria!”
“I had Molly come to the house a few times during this past week and Molly was wonderful with Benny, she arrived on time, follow my directions with Benny, left me detailed messages about the visits. I had a weird schedule and she was able to accommodate us. We really appreciate it! And I also got lots of pictures, This was my first time using Rover we’re grateful for Molly, I will definitely have her services again.”
About: I cared for a Maltese as part of my daily routine for over two years. Since I worked from home during the day, I was primarily responsible for his daytime care, including walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and making sure he received plenty of attention. He has since moved back to China, and I truly miss having a dog around every day. That’s one of the reasons I joined Rover—I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours. Whether it’s a walk, a potty break, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I always provided. I have a flexible work schedule, so I’m available for daytime dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits in addition to evenings and weekends. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break or a longer walk, I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care. As a former Maltese owner, I understand that every pet is a beloved family member. I know how important trust is when someone else is caring for your pet. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and treat them with the same love and patience I gave my own dog. I’ll also provide photo updates after every visit so you always know how they’re doing.
“Josephine was great! I had such peace of mind while I was away due to the great pictures and updates she reported after every visit. She is very trustworthy and timely- she checked in at my pet’s exact meal times each day. I would definitely recommend her to watch your pets!”
“Cara took care of our little guy Duncan with plenty of attention and making sure he was comfortable. She was EXCELLENT in communicating with us. We are delighted to have found her to be our pet sitter!”
“Lauren was so helpful, consistent and communicative. My dogs were well taken care of, walked, and loved for the few days I was gone. Lauren made sure I knew how my dogs were doing and updated me each step of the way! Highly recommend!”
“Thanks so much to Charisma for stopping by to let Indigo out & feed him! My first time using the drop-in option on Rover. Great communication, quick replies, & she kept me updated on Indigo with pictures & followed up with me when she left! I will definitely be using her again in the future! 😊”
“Alexandra was reliable and took great care in making sure the cats were taken care of as we discussed. She cleaned everything up nicely very communicative and again in a heartbeat! Thank you!”
“Sammy was incredible with our two dogs, Penny and Hazel! She followed every detail we left (and there were a lot!), including feeding schedules, leash instructions, and even some quirky habits. Sammy kept us updated and truly treated our pups like her own. We’d absolutely recommend Sammy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and we’ll definitely be asking her again next time we go away!”
“This is the first time we’ve ever had an outside person come to our home to care for our pup and it was nothing but a positive experience. From the meet and greet to the drop-in, Kage exceeded our expectations. His kindness and professionalism impressed us; he followed all of our instructions to a T, (our dog is under a medical protocol and needed special care) and his update at the end of the drop-in was very reassuring, detailed and thoughtful. We will not hesitate to have him come back to take care of Josie!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. I currently have two golden retrievers and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I have experience watching both dogs and cats for others and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family — honestly, I like animals more than humans. I work full time, but I’m only a couple minutes from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to come home during the day when needed and can also work remotely at times, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly dogs to help keep your fur baby company if they enjoy socializing. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am comfortable caring for animals of all breeds and sizes. Pets are welcome on the furniture and bed because we believe they deserve to feel at home and loved while you’re away. My husband and I both have so much love to give, and we’re always happy to provide cuddles, attention, and companionship if your pet enjoys affection.
“Jessiana was absolutely fantastic. She took great care of my babies. I have a hermit cat that takes a long time to warm up to people. I even said not to be concerned if you never see him. He started to come out within a few days and that is huge. I always worry about my diabetic cat when I go away because he his elderly. She took absolutely fantastic care of him. I am very grateful for her care.”
“Jo was terrific! Very communicative and responsible. She sent us photos every day of our cat Olivia who seem to have a terrific time visiting with her. I would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking for someone who wants to be sure that their pet will be well taken care of.”

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 Hampden 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.
