“Megan was terrific! She's totally dependable and went above and beyond, even doing things for us we hadn't thought of. She took good care of our cat, and we couldn't be happier with her care! We will book her again. Thank you Megan.”
“Sarah was great and my kitty was very well looked after! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely book her again. I know my cat appreciated the company 😊”
About: I've been caring for animals for over 11 years. I got my first family dog when I was 7 and my second dog at 13, giving me experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've looked after neighbors' dogs, cared for a friend's dog for over a week while they were on vacation, and have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and giving plenty of attention and love to pets. I've also had a cat since I was young and have cared for my neighbor's cats, so I'm comfortable with both dogs and cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I'm home and very available throughout the summer, so your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I work part-time only 2–3 days a week for a few hours at a time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for boarding, drop-in visits, walks, and daycare. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends and can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large yard for supervised play and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love meeting new friends! I have over 11 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats and will follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions to help them feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Rihanna was wonderful with my anxious girl, Lua. She was patient and took time to let Lua get comfortable with her. I was so nervous to leave Lua, but Rihanna did such a great job with the Rover card updates, I was at ease while away. Highly recommend her, and will definitely be using her services again.”
“Jordan from Rover was awesome!! The dogs liked her right away and had fun playing with her even when the outside weather was lousy. Her messages to us were great and we knew that everything was ok with our dogs. Will definitely call her again when we go out of town!”
About: My experience comes from caring for my own dogs and dog sitting big dogs for friends who don't want their pups to stay in their comfy familiar home while they are away. I've owned labs, huskies, shepherds and collies. Most recently I had two collies that have travelled with me around the world. Sadly both have passed recently So I'm without a dog of my own but love having them around. I am happy to meet new dogs of all ages and breeds. I love large dogs too but my place may be too small for some but I'm happy to meet up and see what works. I work from home a lot and am very flexible to drop in or take your pup(s) for a walk. I run most days and can have pups join if that's something they like. I am very cautious about dog handling and will follow your instructions. I will only care for dogs in my home after I've taken care of them at your home and I am familiar enough with the dog so that I am sure it will be ok in a new space and that I can accommodate its needs.
“Omri was excellent, extremely responsive and offered fantastic care for our girls, Izzy and Asher! 10/10 recommend! will be using his services in the future! Thank you, Omri!”
“We have two dogs, one with a little anxiety, but as soon as he met Kathryn he was put at ease. She is so kind and thoughtful and gave our dogs so much love while we were gone. You could tell how happy they were to be playing with her in the photos that she sent. The last photo they looked so sad when she was leaving. We highly recommend Kathryn, she was amazing!!”
“Julia did an amazing job with our puppy while we were at work and always kept us updated with photos and text updates. We were so grateful for the time she spent with our puppy and it gave us such peace of mind knowing she would be well taken care of. We would absolutely be happy to book her again in the future!”
“Josie is phenomenal! She is hand downs our favorite dog sitter! She is caring, responsive, and conscientious. Our dog Jake loves her! I know he is in the best of hands with Josie, and that means so much to our family.”
“Caitlin was a wonderful caretaker for our bunny! I really appreciated how responsive Caitlin was to all of my messages. Caitlin was also very punctual for all of her visits and took great care of our bun. I look forward to having Caitlin visit Pee Wee again in the future!”
“My good experience with Rainie started from when I corresponded with her when looking for a cat sitter: she responded very promptly and was very agreeable for a meet and greet with my cat. Rainie approached the meet and greet like an interview; she is warm and funny but asked lots of relevant questions about his care and patterns. (He also liked her right away.) She came over when she said she would, and stuck to her word that she would go over at the same time of day in order to provide some consistency to my cat. I felt very comfortable having heard how attuned she was to his needs. All in all I found her very professional and I came home to the litter box in order and the apartment as I left it! I’m very grateful for her help.”
About: I’ve had a family dog for my entire life. I walked my family’s dog nearly every day and have had experience pet sitting for family and friends when they are away. I am very active and am comfortable walking dogs for any desired distance! I am currently a medical student and looking to walk dogs and pet-sit in my free time after school during the week and on weekends! I have one friendly dog in my home. There is no fenced in yard, but have plenty of space for a crate and room to play!
About: If my rates are an obstacle in caring for your pet then I’m happy to provide a sliding scale and have a discussion upon request. Professionally, I was vet assistant at an animal clinic before returning to farm animal work. At the clinic I learned the basics of animal health care and I learned how to properly handle dogs and cats. Throughout the last twelve years I’ve farm-sat and pet-sat for numerous friends and family members! In the last year I worked at a doggy daycare and worked groups of 11-12 large dogs. I also worked in group of 15+ small dogs and "solos" (highly dog aggressive dogs). Working in that environment took me to the next level of understanding cues and dog behavior. I learned to advocate for dogs, look for health and safety warning signs and how to manage group dynamics. I am currently a *human* nurse and making time for animals because that is where I feel I really come alive. :) I believe that animals are part of the family and I will treat them like so. I have basic experience with dog training and I personally believe that dogs thrive in structured and predictable environments. I love exercising and having fun with dogs, too! I have availability to help you with your pup or cat! Depending on the health of your pet I will socialize and exercise your pet's body and mind and of course offer any snuggles that are welcomed. I love exercising animals as much as it is tolerated by them. I currently work per diem as a staff nurse in Lebanon NH which gives me a lot of flexibility to care for pets. I am happy to abide by your house rules and expectations for your pet(s). I enjoy walks to dog parks, trails, playing in fenced yards and practicing obedience and tricks!
“Armani is exceptional and takes great care of Cleo. She is very professional and goes above and beyond to make sure her time is optimized with Cleo. I feel very comfortable having her drop by and spend time with Cleo. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her services!”
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life, in which I fed, walked, and looked after him. He passed last year and I’m not ready to get another one right now but would love to have dogs around. I absolutely love dogs and have taken care of friends and family dogs. I’m working part-time, 4 to 5 days a week. My schedule comes out 2 weeks in advance so I should have plenty of time to figure out when to look after or walk your pup! I will always keep an eye on your dog and follow all the guidelines you have, whether that’s letting them free in a fenced yard or keeping them on a leash outside.
About: Hi there! I am 30 and I live in Springfield, VT and work in WRJ. So my radius is quite large. I have a 6 year old golden pup (as seen in photos) named Burton and also take care of my in laws cat, Middy. I grew up in Vermont on a small farm with 3 dogs (Pitbull and labs) and 2 cats. I currently have a pup, Burton. Who gets along with all dogs and people. Depending on your pets personality, I will be sure to be active with them. Our pup Burton gets 4 walks a day and typically goes for a swim once a day at a nearby kayak launch. I fully believe pets should have a significant amount of play + active time whether its a walk or drop in visit, they will have fun. I do work in WRJ from 8-5pm but I do have lunches available and we do have flexible time. Typically at lunch or after work I will have time to give them a good active walk/run. I am a very active person and believe all pups should have an active lifestyle as well. I only do walks + drop ins, most of my care will be outside! Love hiking, long walks and running. I have experience with running a husky every other day for 2-3 miles due to the high energy.

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 Hanover 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.

- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
