“Alisa was amazing! She took such good care of our cats, Zion & Milo. She gave us so much peace of mind on our vacation because we knew our fur babies were well taken care of. We would absolutely book Alisa again on our next vacation or weekend getaway.”
“Josie was really easy to work with. She even helped out my mind at ease by coming over and meeting my dogs before the actual day check to make sure it was a good fit. She provided pics and updates during the check in! I would rebook her for sure.”
“Adrienna did amazing dropping in on our dog for a few days. She would send pictures of him and update us on how he was doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will be using her again in the future!”
“Ellie is amazing ! She took such good care of our dog and gave us lots of updates ! She was always on time and spend a lot of time with him during her check ins . We will definitely use Ellie again !”
“Aubrey is the best!! She was so patient with my dogs, who can be really distrusting and a lot to deal with if they don’t know you. She was tolerant and took great care of them, easing my mind while I was on vacation knowing they were in great hands. 10/10 recommend!!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs of any kind ever since I can remember! I have been working at a local daycare and boarding facility for three years, and have been taking care of neighbor and family dogs for my whole life, I promise to give you an above and beyond experience! ❤️ While i'm at home in Saint Louis, I work part time at a dog daycare/boarding facility, but love doing Rover with all of the free time I have when not at work! I currently am studying at the University of Missouri and am a student athlete, but typically have a consistent schedule that allows me to do Rover and care for pets in my free time! While i'm at college I have a very spacious apartment with plenty of toys and a dog bed! I always ensure that your pet will get all the attention and care that they deserve!
“Morgan was an absolute star when it came to taking care of my senior cat with a variety of health issues that required daily medication. She was patient, loving, kind and most importantly was reliable in my absence. Really appreciated her being able to provide daily updates during drop ins! Can’t recommend her enough and will be rebooking her in the future for sure!”
“Martina was excellent! She took great care of my dog and cat, checked in diligently with pictures and details of each visit, and always responded promptly. Martina will be my first contact the next time my pets need care!”
“Victoria did a great job taking care of our dogs! She kept us informed at each of her check-ins. It was nice to relax on vacation and not worry about the dogs. Would absolutely use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2019, when I started helping my mom with her dog-sitting business. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and acquaintances, including overnight stays. I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities and energy levels, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique quirks and routine. I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and keeping them company while you’re away. I also have three pets of my own, so I understand how much our furry family members mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust. Whether your pup is an energetic ball of zoomies, a professional napper, or a little bit of both, I’m always excited to meet a new four-legged friend! I love a good cuddle buddy just as much as an excited fur baby ready to play, and I’ll make sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐾💕 Hi! My name is Aurora, and I’m a reliable, caring, and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I have several years of experience caring for pets, including experience helping my mom as a Rover pet sitter as well as caring for dogs for family, friends, and other clients. I currently work part-time from Sunday through Wednesday, with shifts that typically fall between 2 PM–10 PM or 4 PM–10 PM. Because of this, I have the most availability Thursday through Saturday, as well as mornings and earlier parts of the day on my workdays. I’m happy to communicate about my schedule ahead of time to make sure I can provide your pet with the time and attention they deserve. Every pet is different, so I believe the best care starts with getting to know their personality and routine. For dogs, a typical visit may look like a potty break, a walk, playing with their favorite toys, spending time outside, feeding, fresh water, and plenty of attention. Depending on their energy level, we might spend our time going for a longer walk and playing, or we may simply relax together and keep eachother company. For cats, I understand that their needs can look a little different. A typical cat visit may include feeding, refreshing their water, cleaning their litter box, playing with toys, and giving them attention and affection if they enjoy it. Some cats are social and love having someone play with them or give them lots of attention, while others are more independent or shy and prefer to have someone quietly check on them and give them space. I’m comfortable respecting those differences and letting each cat set the pace. I would also be more happy to take care of other small tasks that help keep your pets comfortable while you're away, such as bringing in packages, taking your trash to the curb, or watering plants. If your pet needs medication or has a specific care routine, I’m happy to discuss their needs beforehand.
About: I have extensive experience taking care of animals of all sizes! I've been working in vet med since I was in high school shadowing veterinarians and assisting technicians and have gained hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I'm comfortable with everything from energetic puppies and kittens to your senior pets who may need a little more time and attention. While I no longer own my own pets, I understand how important it is to have reliable experienced pet care! I'm currently a full-time student at MIZZOU and wanted to start dog walking to fill my time! I miss my dogs back home so I will treat yours as if they're my own! I prioritize each pet's safety, comfort, and routine. In a client's home I follow all feeding, medication, exercise and care instructions while keeping the home secure and clean. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior or overall well-being and provide regular photos and updates. I take time to learn each pet's boundaries, needs, and personality so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away.
About: I’ve worked with dogs in many various professional environments: specifically KC Dawgs training facility, dogtopia and camp bow wow daycare and boarding facilities, and even the petsmart grooming salon. I have loved every single job I’ve had with animals and am in good standing with all of them after having to move to Columbia for college. I also have a good amount of experience with working dogs as I volunteer and shadow the MO TF1 search and rescue canines at least once a month! I have a ton of experience with animals who might have physical disabilities or need extra care. The white aussie in my profile picture was partially blind and completely deaf. I got to work with him for a 1-2 week board and train! I’ve taken care of countless breeds with various different exercise needs and food varieties. I also have a ton of experience with grooming and nail trims. I offer these for free for anyone who books a service longer than a day! Just let me know in private messages if you are interested ^_^ I have 2 dogs of my own and we currently live on campus in a single dorm. I am also the president of the Canine Sports Club at my school! When students here need help with their dogs (we are a pet friendly school), I am usually the first person they ask. I also volunteer for a program called Retrieving Freedom which allows me to help train and raise psychiatric service dogs. This is a program that meets once a week. My own dog (Tara, 5) is being trained on the scent of a low blood glucose to work towards being my service dog (diabetic alert). So we train on scent multiple times a week. My dogs get supplements, meds, potty breaks, play dates, training outings, and grooming sessions multiple times a week. My pets at home are all kennel trained, potty trained, and general house trained. I have a puppy who has higher energy and needs more supervision, so he gets naptimes up in his kennel more often than my 5 year old girl. The puppy is on hip and joint supplements which he gets with his breakfast. All my dogs eat out of slow feeders and wait to eat until they are released. This helps with impulse control.
About: I've had dogs my whole life and have loved animals since I was a kid. Right now I'm watching my roommate's cat and dog, so I'm used to juggling different personalities and energy levels. I'm reliable, patient, and treat every dog like my own. Happy to send photo updates during walks and check ins so you know your pup is having a great time! I'm a student at the University of Missouri with a part-time job, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm available Monday–Thursday before 10:30am and after 5pm, and I usually have all-day availability Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Your dog's safety and comfort are always my top priority. Growing up with a dog with anxiety, so I learned early on how to read subtle cues, stay calm in stressful situations, and help an anxious dog feel safe. That experience taught me a lot of patience and made me really attentive to each dog's individual needs and comfort level with new people and environments. I currently share my home with my roommate's cat and dog, so I'm also experienced with multi-pet households and know how to keep introductions calm and stress-free
About: I have had dogs almost my whole life since I was 1 years old. They are all my favorites! I have taken care of puppies through elderly. I have had dogs with seizures and one who only walked in left circles after a stroke. I have had dogs who lost their ability to control their bladder and dogs who needed help getting off the bed. I love them all and my life is better because they were in it! I work till 3:30-4 pm Monday through Friday in education. I am free many weekends a month. I am happy to do a drop in or two in the evenings and more with longer stays on weekends. I am not always available for last moment notice on weekends but will do my best to be available with a couple days notice. In your home I will follow what ever procedure you instruct. It is your home and your animal. Trust and consent is the most important part of the relationship. I am good at meeting expectations and will always strive to exceed them for your animal. You are the best they could hope for, I want you to feel confident they are just as cared for when they are with me.
About: Former veterinary employee with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, needs, personalities, and energy levels. I also own two dogs of my own. I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule from morning through the afternoon for drop-in visits and walks. I’m able to fit pet care into my daily routine while giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. With my previous veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and needs. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, plenty of attention, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I also have a fenced in back yard and two of my own dogs one who is a senior and one who is a puppy.
About: Hi, my name is Becca. I live with four dogs, two Yorkies(Cocoa and Buddy), a Pit mix and a Beagle (Doobie and Maribel)! I love to play in the backyard with them and take them on walks. I think that it’s important to show dogs you care about them, by spending time with them. I enjoy long walks especially with dogs, it’s more fun when you have a furry friend with you! I look forward to getting to know your dog and learning more about their personality. Don’t hesitate to tell me if your dog has special needs or requirements. My schedule is somewhat flexible. I am currently in paramedic school. My classes are mostly in the mornings, but my schedule is pretty flexible during the afternoons on week days. I have a fenced-in yard, and all dogs have plenty of toys to play with! I often run around in the backyard with them to help get some of their energy out!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Harg
Jennifer went above and beyond with caring for my kitty! She helped provide advice when Vesta was seeming sick after I left for my trip and I could not thank her enough for the care that she gave while I was gone. She took so many adorable photos and was very communicative about everything happening.
Hannah was awesome! My cat has chronic health conditions, and she did a great job monitoring symptoms and administering meds when necessary, including keeping me up to date about how my cat was doing every day. Would definitely book her again in the future!

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.
