“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Jacqueline! From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable leaving our two dogs in her care. She was incredibly loving, attentive, and treated both of our dogs as if they were her own. Jacqueline kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention. Finding someone you can truly trust with your pets is so important, and we feel very lucky to have found Jacqueline. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will absolutely be using Jacqueline again! ❤️🐾”

About: I’ve helped pet sit for friends and family for several years now. I have my own 4 year old purebred Siberian husky named Maverick. I have had him since he was 3 months old. I also grew up having family dogs and cats. I even helped take care of brother’s bearded dragon when he was in college. I spent 3 years working alongside 2 certified professional trainers learning to train my own dog. I am currently a daycare teacher working with infants and preschoolers. I am also in a master’s program to get my teaching degree in teaching high school English. I am currently a daycare teacher working most days. Sometimes I start at 6:30am, sometimes at 8am, and other times at noon. I usually work till 6:15pm, but sometimes I get scheduled to be off early. It varies every week, but I can put in requests ahead of time to start or end at a certain time if need be. I have a 4 year old purebred Siberian husky named Maverick. He loves everyone and all animals. He was raised around other dogs, cats, and a bearded dragon since I brought him home at 3 months old. I have worked alongside 2 certified professional trainers to help train Maverick to be the best behaved dog. I have trained Maverick to the point that he has several awards and certifications in obedience, rally, and scent work. I currently live with my sister’s two dogs and brother’s cat. I cannot pet sit at my house currently due to having other dogs and cats in my home, but I am more than happy to go to a client’s home, and pet sit, walk, let animals outside, etc.

“This was my first booking and I'm very happy! I'm pretty anxious about leaving my dogs for a day or more with anyone. Not just new people, friends and family as well since anything can happen. Both of my dogs have chronic health conditions so it's easy to cause them to flare up. There were no issues at all with their health or anything. Christopher made me feel very comfortable and even came over the day before to meet me and my pups. My GSD is 100lbs so he can be intimidating, it really soothed me to see that he was comfortable with that. He and his wife also took both of them for a couple walks during 2 of the 4 drop in visits! I'm sure my dogs absolutely loved that and my GSD pulls like a mushing dog on a leash. I can definitely recommend Chris for care of your dogs”

About: I have had cats and dogs of every kind since I was a baby. I started volunteering at a humane society and loved working with animals. Since graduating college, I have been working in the animal field for over a year now. I dog sit a friends house that has multiple animals that take different medications and specialized diets. My friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs during their days at work. I work 4 days during the week - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. (10 hour shifts). I consistently have Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday off. I am always willing to stop before and after my work days as well. I take my dogs to parks or in open fields in the woods and let them run freely while playing with them. I take other dogs on long walks and play with them in the yard. Sometimes will take them to get a pup cup (if they like car rides and have no stomach issues). I always ask owners what their pets love the most, whether it is walks, playing fetch or enjoying a favorite snack!

About: I have grow up with multiple dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments my whole life and also have cared for others pets for several years! I currently have two fur babies of my own, Mylo and Jazzy, whom I love dearly! Mylo is a cuddly King Charles Spaniel who I have raised from a puppy and Jazzy is a beagle mix who I rescued when she was 3 ! Due to her rough past, she unfortunately has worked through some anxiety issues which has allowed me to become an expert in giving medications and TLC. She is thankfully totally anxiety free now and living her best life! I am looking forward to providing your pups with a PAWsome experience! I am currently working from home which gives me ample time to provide your pets with the care they need! I ideally would like to watch your dogs at my house due to having dogs of my own/ my work set up. When taking care of your pups, they will be continually monitored and provided with the safest environment possible! I would treat your pets like one of my own and provide them with the excellent care they deserve! We have a beautiful back yard for a safe environment for your pups to run and play.

About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even farm animals. I grew up helping care for horses, pigs, and multiple pets, so responsibility and attention to detail come naturally to me. At 14, I raised my own red nose pit bull, gaining real experience in understanding dog behavior, building trust, and providing consistent care. While I don’t offer formal training, I’m confident handling dogs and maintaining their routines. I offer dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits, and I treat every pet like my own. My goal is simple: keep your pet safe, happy, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind. I have a very flexible schedule and can easily accommodate the needs of different families. Communication and transparency are extremely important to me, and I always make sure we’re on the same page when it comes to your pet’s care. I value clear expectations and routines, and I’m committed to following your instructions closely. The care and attention you give your pet at home is the same level of exceptional care I provide nothing less. I have two kids at home, so I ask clients to be mindful of that when scheduling visits. I’m happy to provide care in your home or mine, and I’m very flexible and easy to work with. Creating a safe, comfortable, and trusting environment for your pet is my top priority, and I make sure every visit is calm, positive, and stress free.

About: Hi there! My name is Alicia! I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past eight years, I’ve started caring for others. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I am currently working from home full time, allowing me to have open availability and time to cater to your fur families needs & special requests. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent circumstances, it's sadly not the right time for me. I am fully vaccinated however feel free to let me know if you prefer me to wear a mask while in your home. While at your home, I will respect it and your dogs as my own.

All animals you see on beds/furniture have mom and dads approval :)

About: Hi! My name is Katie and I am a recent Pitt alum with a passion for pets! I’ve been taking care of dogs of my own for about 15 years now and love every minute! I’ve also pet sat for family and friends on and off for the past 4 years. To me, pets are apart of our families and deserve the best care possible. I’m here to help care for all of your furry friends like they’re my own: with passion, kindness, and a little fun too :) I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, administering medication, and overall dog care! I currently work a full-time, Monday-Friday job. I am available during the week after 6pm for drop by visits and walks. I usually have open availability on the weekends, but please check my availability for updated times and dates! I have three dogs at home, two senior dogs and a younger pup. They all get along with other dogs well, but their will be some initial barking and sniffing when introduced to knew furry friends. I am about 10 minutes away from South Park, which also has a dog park.

“Kristie provided amazing service while caring for our 17 year-old cat while we were on vacation. She gave him lots of attention and was always on-time with giving him his medication that he needs twice a day. She gave us peace of mind knowing that he was being very well cared for. We will definitely use Kristie for pet sitting again!”

About: My love and passion for animals of all shapes and size has been visible from a young age. I will be attending Vet Tech Institute this summer, so I promise that your fur-baby will be my #1 priority! I will treat not only you, but your furry friend with the upmost compassion and respect! I promise not to disappoint! 🐾 Even in attendance at Vet Tech Institute, I will never have enough animal time! This will allow me to focus on my school work, but also give some love to your pets! My fur-babies are what you call... SPOILED! They will be given the absolute best treatment followed by plenty of love and treats! I respect the boundaries of any client, whether it be your pet's or your own! I promise to do my best to make you feel worry free while your furry friend is in my care! I am currently in between jobs, so I have all of the time in the world to love and care for your pups! I accept same day appointments! 🐾 Unfortunately, I live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets. When I am in your home, I will treat your property, but most importantly, your dog with the absolute most respect. I will tend and cater to your pup's needs as directed and needed. I will treat your furry-friend as if they were my own and continuously spoil them during our time together!

About: Dog owner since 1970. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front, and one in back, with a gate in between if needed. Dogs love me and I love them. ❤️ I have an older service dog as well, and am able to help train a dog if needed. I'm semi-retired, so it's rare that your dog would be left alone at all, but if you're dog enjoys being left alone, that's always an option as well. Communication is the key.... feeding times, special needs, etc. I have everything needed to pet sit. My property has TWO fenced in yards, one in front and one in back with a gate in between. My home has whole house ac and vinyl flooring. I have 3 dogs to keep your dog company, or those two seperate fenced yards if requested or needed. I also have crates for dogs that enjoy that den feeling.

About: I’ve been pet sitting and caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years, and I can genuinely say there are few things that make me happier than getting to know a new furry friend. I currently run my own pet-sitting business and have been incredibly lucky to build a wonderful little family of happy pets, repeat clients, and pet parents who trust me with their babies. I know every pet is their own little person! Some want to play fetch until your arm falls off, some want to be your shadow, some would happily spend the entire visit getting belly rubs, and others need a little extra patience and time before deciding you’re worthy of their friendship. I love learning all of those little quirks and keeping their normal routines as familiar and comfortable as possible while their people are away. I have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including multi-pet households and routine oral and topical medications. And because I know how much you miss your babies when you’re apart, I’m a BIG believer in sending plenty of photos and updates along the way! Your pets won’t just be fed, walked, and checked on…they’ll get conversation, playtime, companionship, scratches, cuddles, and plenty of love. My goal is for you to be able to enjoy your trip or get through your workday knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, happy, and being genuinely cared for. Loving Your Pets Like They’re My Own isn’t just my slogan, it’s exactly what I try to do with every animal entrusted to me. 💕🐾 Pet sitting is already a regular part of my weekly routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to devote plenty of time to the pets in my care. I’m available weekdays, evenings, weekends, and overnight, and can often accommodate extended stays as well. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, some company during a long workday, or someone to stay with them while you’re away, I love being able to plan my schedule around their normal routine. When I’m caring for your babies, they’re never treated like something I need to “fit in.” Spending time with them is the best part of my day! 💕 I provide care in my clients’ homes because I believe pets are often happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I take the time to learn each pet’s normal routine, personality, feeding and potty schedule, favorite activities, medication needs, and any special instructions their family provides. I’m respectful of both your pets and your home, and their safety and comfort are always my priority. I never force interaction with a shy or nervous pet…I’m happy to give them the time and space they need to decide that we’re friends! While you’re away, I’ll provide plenty of companionship, playtime, conversation, scratches, cuddles, and love, along with lots of photos and updates so you can see how your babies are doing. 🐾💕

About: I've had multiple dogs and cats my whole life and they have all been my best friends! We like to cuddle, go on walks and learn new skills. I'm no stranger to pets of all different personalities and know how to meet them where they are. I'm experienced in providing insulin to dogs and topical treatment to cats. I don't currently have pets of my own but have spent weeks looking after the cats and dogs of friends and family. I love those times that I'm able to bond with their fur babies and would love to get to know yours as well! I currently work remotely and can be available for boarding throughout the week and weekend. I'm available to hangout with your pets, take them on walks or bathroom breaks, feed times or personal enrichment, whatever they may need. I have a backyard that pets can run around in, it is fenced on one side only so they would need to have a long leash for safety. I don't have other pets so they wouldn't have any problems there! If coming to your home I'm happy to go by the rules that you set and the comfort levels that you have. I always find pets do best in their comfort zones anyway and I'm excited to meet them where they are!

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.
