About: I have been around animals since I can remember. From caring for them, pet sitting for friends, and helping train behavioral pets. Pets bring an energy and love to a home, so I understand how precious they are to you and your family. I can ensure you that I will bring that same care and love to your furry family member My current schedule allows me flexibility. Afternoons and evenings Monday - Friday works best for play dates, however, I can manage mornings depending on the travel distance and make some room on the weekend if needed. I understand that every pet and household has different needs. I always follow each owner’s instructions and care routine while making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. My care consists of: -Leash walks -Playtime with pets own toys (if requested in the care routine ) -Basic obedience reinforcement (sit, stay, leash manners) -dog parks if there happen to be one in the neighborhood -unleashed in the yard( if the yard is fenced in and requested by owner) - Mealtime( at the owners discretion) - Refilling water bowl - Grooming ( if requested in sitting routine) - Medication administration (if you’re comfortable) -Photo and video updates -Daily visit summaries -Quick responses to owner questions Courtesy Extras: -Bringing in mail/packages -Watering plants -taking out/in trash bins
About: I love taking care of and playing with animals, and am looking to spend time with your critters, whether dog, cat, bird, or beast. I grew up on a farm around chickens, horses, dogs, and pigs, and I've always had a connection with animals and find their presence comforting. I can come and check in on your loved ones and feed them and play with them. I have my own dog whom I love very much and I enjoy showering any and all animals I meet with attention. I'm most experienced with dogs, but I'm a quick learner and enjoy learning how to take care of all animals. I have very little experience administering medications, but am willing to learn, if shown how or given detailed instructions.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, chickens & cows! I love animals and hope to have a sanctuary of my own soon! I hope to serve you soon! I work part time in the emergency room, so I can usually move the sitting around my job! This is a great side job for me to make some extra money! I care for pets as if they were my own and I love them unconditionally. I have pets of my own and they are well taken care of!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I have experience training puppies in basic commands like sit, stay, come, and leash manners. I provide a calm, structured environment and pay close attention to each dog’s needs, whether that’s playtime, routine, or extra patience. My goal is to make them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs consistent attention and care. Occasionally I may step out briefly, but dogs are never left alone for long and can be safely crated if needed. I live on a quiet property with a large yard and a long private driveway, giving dogs plenty of space to walk and explore safely. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is supervised and/or on leash for safety. I also have the ability to crate if needed and always prioritize a safe, controlled environment for every dog.
“This was our first time finding a sitter outside of family & friends and Chasydi did her best with our territorial dog. She was very communicative and tried her best to get our dog comfortable with her even though he was very anxious and not welcoming lol. She even went above and beyond with her own food & treats. We will definitely continue to book with her and hope our dog continues to get more comfortable with her.”
About: I have own dogs my whole life. I have one Rottweiler and a Yorkie/Minpinch. My Rottweiler is very friendly. They both love people and other dogs. Both of my dogs are very we’ll behaved.

My husband and I live on 5 acres so your dogs will have lots of room to run and will be watched with love,and well taken care of. You will not be disappointed when you pick them up. I love animals and treat other peoples animals like they're my own. We have a fence in area.

“Lindsay was exactly what I needed for my last minute travel! I had never used a service like this before and just moved to a new area so I wasn't sure how it would go. Lindsay met me and the fur babies before the trip and got a lay of the house and I was instantly comfortable with her! She was on time for every visit, she loved my pups as her own and she kept me in the loop at each visit! I never felt that I needed to worry about my babies while away and it allowed me to thoroughly relax! Thank you so much!”

“Heidi was wonderful. She came by to feed my dog, spent quality time with him, and made sure he was well cared for. She was reliable, sent great updates, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I’m especially grateful that she was able to step in at the last minute over a holiday. I’d absolutely recommend Heidi and would gladly book her again.”
“My partner and I went on a two week long trip and we needed someone to check in on our two cats while we were away. Caroline did a fantastic job making sure our cats were set with clean litter, food, and water and she also took the time to keep them company, play with them, and to give them treats. She was communicative, very flexible, and gave us detailed report cards and pictures! We had no worries during our travels and would highly recommend her to others in need of check-ins.”

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
