About: I’ve had a love for animals my entire life and have grown up caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and a wide variety of other pets. I currently have two cats, three dogs, and a flock of chickens of my own, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. When your pets are in my care, I treat them like my own—with plenty of love, attention, patience, and care. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away! I work Monday–Friday from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM, but I’m happy to work pet visits around my schedule! I’m available for visits before work, after work, and in the evenings, and I can be flexible depending on your pets’ needs and routine. I’m happy to communicate ahead of time to find a schedule that works best for both you and your pets. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own home, surrounded by their familiar sights, smells, and routines. When I care for your pets, I’ll follow their normal schedule as closely as possible—from meals and fresh water to potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and medication if needed. I’ll also make sure their space stays clean and comfortable while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and companionship so they feel safe, loved, and cared for until you’re home again.
About: Hello my names is Michaela and I’m an Animal Science major at Iowa State that loves animals and has lots of love to give your furry friends! I have experience caring for all kinds of animals, all shapes and sizes. I worked a a animal shelter for a while and nothing scares me! I miss my animals at home and it would be amazing to have a companion for the night! I will always treat you and your animals with the lost respect because I know they are a giant part of everyone’s daily life and family. Thank you for trusting me with them and I hope I can offer you a good experience and potentially have your pets in my care again! Thank you so much!
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs in my house since I was born. I currently own 2 dogs, Finn & Sasha. I have experience from small dogs to extra large dogs, elderly dogs and puppies, calm dogs and ones that crave chaos. Whatever category your dog fits in, I’m your person. I’ve dealt with dog reactivity and gone through training with that as well. I currently work a 9-5. I am able to do morning walks and drop in before, as well as after. My weekends typically have more availability. I make sure that your dog will feel safe and comfortable with me. Creating a strong bond is very important, especially with dogs that like a schedule. I’ll respect your home like it’s my own. I’m excited to meet your fur child.
About: I have been taking care of animals all my life. I currently have a Labrador retriever who has had tplo so I understand complex animals and their needs I enjoy taking care of animals in many different life stages as they are all important. I usually work 4-3pm most days but I have a 30 minutes lunch I can use to potty your dog and even go before work in the early hours if needed I can/am willing to give and do many tasks including walking, feeding, medication administering, cleaning up, and taking outside/pottying. I love to cuddle and play with dogs so I’m willing to spend a little extra time to bond with them!
About: I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. Confident in handling walks! This is a side hustle to help pay for my college fund, and I’m also working with remote jobs so I have a lot of free time. When I care for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their regular routines to help them feel safe and relaxed. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. I also keep the home clean and tidy, give regular updates with photos/videos, and make sure your pet gets lots of attention and comfort while you’re away. I treat your space with the same respect I would my own.
“It was the first time ever having the sitter come to the house for drop-ins. Zeus took to him right away but later decided to be stubborn and plant his big butt when Bradyn tried to get him back in the house. Bradyn was very patient and kept trying until he succeeded. He took very good care of our 127 lb furbaby.”
“Ariel is an excellent care giver of my sweet fur babies. This was the first time we had left our babies for more than a few hours. When we arrived home after five days both were quite happy which means she gave them lots of love when she came over. One of my babies is very afraid of fireworks and Ariel gave her extra care. It shows. I would not hesitate to ask her to care for my babies again.”
About: There has always been at least one dog in my family since before I was born. I am now 21 years old, and I have 3 dogs of my own. I have been walking and dog sitting for just over a year now, and I absolutely love it. I even hope to one day open my own walking/boarding/daycare company for dogs. But that probably won’t happen for a while, so for now I’m just trying to rack up as many practice hours as I possibly can, and learn about dogs as much as possible. There is something new to learn with every walk and every sitting job, and I would love to have the opportunity to learn about your dog and hang out with them!

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.
