About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs and dog sat for social workers and psychologists that I used to work for. I grew up with and took care of welsh terriers, wire fox terriers, and Scottish terriers. I’ve dog sat mutts, pit bulls, and Australian shepherds. I take great care to follow instructions for your fur babies and to treat them with love and respect. ** I have base access ** I currently am in school 2 days out of the week. The rest of the time I’m at home, doing homework, or cooking. Would love to help out homes in my neighborhood that want to make sure their pets get what they need! I follow the instructions to a T. You know your pets the best and what they respond to and not. I’m not here to experiment or try anything new. Just a fill in for you and what you would normally be doing.
About: I have been surrounded by cats since I was a baby. I currently have two cats and would love to take care of yours like it was mine! I was trying to make a cat only profile but I could not find the only option. I'm currently trying to build a playpen out of my garage to board cats only. Each cat will have a big size enclosure and have individual brakes to play and roam around the playpen by himself. I plan to keep them separate from other possible guest cats to avoid any physical confrontation. You can bring your own food, toys and bed. Let me know if you have any questions or if you cat needs any special accommodations. I'll hope to hear from you!
“Lori is a great person with good personality. She is committed n responsible n was awesome with our gentle Nanuq. Happy to have her back again soon. Lori is friendly and respectful.”
“Melissa took such good care of my kitty Frances! Frances always hides from strangers but came out for Melissa which speaks for itself. Will definitely book again in the future, thank you so much!”
About: From a very young age until now, I’ve cared for and owned dogs. I’m experienced in training them to do little tricks as well! I’ll look after your dogs, big or small, young or old! My current weekday availability is in the morning until noon. For weekends, I am usually able to care for your pets all day and into the evening, but that may be subject to change. I can feed your beloved critters and take them outside when needed. Please ask if you have any questions! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, big and small.
About: Hi! I’m Meaghan, a 24 year old college student, and I’ve been working in veterinary medicine since 2022 as both a Veterinary Assistant and CSR. Through my work in vetmed, I’ve gained lots of hands-on experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs, personalities, and routines. I have also helped my aunt with her dog-walking and drop-in pet care business, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs in their own homes and keeping them happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I absolutely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to give plenty of love, playtime, walks, and belly rubs. 🐾 I'm currently a full-time student and looking to fit in pet care inbetween commitments as I miss my day-to-day in vetmed. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits in your pet’s own home and neighborhood. I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s routine, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout every visit.
About: Some people innately connect with animals. Maybe this cannot be taught or learned. Even those animals who "don't like anyone" like me. It's a gift. Perhaps they can tell I'm a gentle giant and it makes them feel safe and protected. Whether cat or dog or some other creatures, I will lavish affection and attention on them (if they're into that). Or simply let them call the shots until they're ready to warm up a bit more. As a large, fit dude, I can manage even the strongest dogs, but I'm nimble and delicate with the smaller ones and cats. It comes naturally, and your pets will sense it. Summertime affords more flexibility for me as a teacher. I do have another PT gig currently on Tuesdays & Thursdays in the afternoons. But I'm mostly available the other 5 days for now, and am willing to spend time with your pets before and after shifts on days I work. For many years, I've cared for dozens of friends' pets. Long before Rover existed, I was a resident car provider in my community. Everyone knows I am reliable, professional, responsive, and flexible. Clean, sober, non-smoker.
About: I have walked a friends dog for around 2 years. I also sat for them once last year. I also take care of my dog of 4 years. I am a free for almost the entire day,except on Sundays. The evening I like to keep clear just in case. This schedule might change once I get a job. I love walking dogs, especially in the mornings when it’s cool. This service is easy to take off an owners plate, when they need it.
About: Hi! I’m Savannah, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a reliable routine while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, dependable, and loving care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! Pet care is my full-time focus, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, love, and consistent care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can easily accommodate your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feedings, medication, or lots of cuddles. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly, with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can run and play securely. I also have a friendly, playful Yorkie-Maltese who loves making new friends and is always excited to have a playmate. I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and right at home during their stay.
About: With two years of experience caring for dogs and cats since moving to California, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the unique needs of pets of all sizes. Growing up with both small and large dogs, I’ve always had a love for animals. I recognize how important your furry friends are to your family and treat them with the same love and care as if they were my own. From puppies and kittens to senior pets, I’ve provided attentive care for animals of all ages. I am currently available on weekends and after 4:30 during the weekdays. While I work full time I still have been able to provide reliable care for those who relied on me. For pets in my own home I have a camera which I monitor whenever I am not with the pets even if I am just in a different section of the apartment. I crate my little one and whoever is in my care while I’m away to ensure they aren’t able to harm themselves. I am very attentive and very detail oriented and am easily able to determine when a pet is acting out of character to intervene appropriately and in a timely manner. For pets in your home the same rules apply to my attention to detail and care. I will go out of my way to ensure the safety of your fur family during your time away doing whatever it takes.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with nearly 10 years of experience caring for dogs. I’ve owned a Chihuahua, Beagle, and currently a dog mom to a 5 year old pitbull! So I’m comfortable with all sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family, providing dependable, loving care every time. I am currently available 7 days a week! 24/7. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to cater to your specific time frames needed. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy while giving your pet consistent care and companionship. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well taken care of. During walks and visits, I focus on safety, using secure leashes and staying aware of surroundings, while also making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they need active play or a slower, more relaxed pace.
“Dawns was absolutely fantastic with our Border Collie and Mini Schnauzer for our 10 day vacation. She went above and beyond! We will definitely use her for all of our future dog sitting jobs.”
“Alyson was amazing with my 2 kitties! She asked great questions during the meet and greet that I didn’t even think of like whether I needed any plants watered and if she needed to adjust the thermostat at all. There were some technical difficulties with my reptile enclosure and she was so helpful in figuring it out while I was away. As for my kitties, they seemed very content when we returned from our trip so I know she cared for them well and I sooo appreciated the daily update pictures. I highly recommend her and would definitely book her again. Thanks Alyson :)”
“Sabrina is a very warm and kind young woman. She took very good care of our Sammy. She sent many pictures of him which was wonderful to see. When we came home from our 2 week vacation, everything was fine and Sammy looked like she kept him groomed. We would definitely call on her again.”
About: I love caring for dogs of all ages and sizes! My family calls me the “dog whisperer” and I’m highly reliable and can almost always meet your time requirements for check-ins and walks! I pay attention to detail in case your dog has to take medication or has other restrictions (diet, joints, etc.). I currently work full-time as a Law Enforcement Professional. I am typically working Tues-Fri 7a-530p. I am available to drop in and care for your fur babies any time around that schedule with proper notice. I will only walk your fur baby on the requested route should there be one, and for the requested time. During check-ins, I will make sure to clean up any messes made by your fur baby upon arrival and before I leave. If there are any special instructions regarding the care of your fur baby, I will be sure to adhere to those as well.
About: I’ve cared for my own happy dog, and I’ll give yours attentive, reliable care with genuine patience, kindness, safety, and lots of love every day Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I’m fully available Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday, allowing me to provide consistent, attentive, and flexible care for your pet. I do have another job full time I mostly work Monday, Tuesday,Friday, and Sunday I will still be able to care for your baby so don’t worry, If you do book with me on those days please note that Monday / Sundays I do open and I will be off at 4 and Tuesday / Friday I’m free during the morning so I’ll be free from 8-4 after 4 I won’t be and won’t be off till 10/11 but rest assured I will still be capable to care for your baby. ❤️ I provide a safe, fenced yard, follow routines, and keep your fur baby company with attention, play, and care to ensure comfort, safety, and happiness.
“Harry did an excellent job in taking care of our babies We appreciated the daily updates as Mom was worried. We will definitely use him again. Thanks for the care and service.”
About: I’m the person you’ll find in the corner at a party hanging out with the dog (or cat). I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, have experience pet sitting and walking, and adopted both of my pets. I also trained my dog, Pinto, myself, so I have hands-on experience with training, routines, and plenty of different dog behaviors. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll always treat yours with the same care and attention I give my own. I also haven’t met a pet I couldn’t win over yet! I recently moved to the area from Washington, so my schedule is currently very flexible! I’m especially available during the week for anyone who needs someone to check in on their buddy while they’re at work. Whether it’s a midday walk, potty break, playtime, or just some company, I’m happy to make their day a little less lonely while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company. I’ll always make sure your pet is safe and comfortable and your home is left just as I found it. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you know how your buddy is doing!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hartley
Camille was the perfect sitter for my two dogs! I booked 10 days of drop-in visits and the whole experience was smooth. She visited my dogs twice a day and my pups loved her. I enjoyed all of the updates and photos that were sent. Camille was a quick communicator anytime I had a question while I was away. I appreciated that she was able to take care of my senior Husky with chronic arthritis, which I was the most nervous about since he can be picky with who tends to him. I would absolutely book Camille again!

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.
