“Allison was amazing!! We hired her to drop in and take care of our pet cat and she did such a great job. She set up a meet and greet to get to know our cat first, and I could tell by the questions that she was asking that she truly cares about animals. Even our skittish cat took to her right away. We felt such peace of mind knowing Allison would be caring for her while we were gone. 5 stars, would definitely book her again!!”
“It has to be a really special person for me to feel comfortable leaving someone in my house overnight with my baby. Samantha spent the weekend inmy home and took great care of my shitzhu-bision. She was flexible with her schedule and asked all the right questions. She is very upbeat and enthusiastic. She is confident in her experience and knowledge about dogs. She randomly touched base with me and sent lots of pictures ensuring me that Pippa was very happy. I would absolutely have Samantha come back again and would highly recommend her.”
About: I bring more than 30 years of professional experience caring for and working with animals. I am internationally renowned for my work with dogs and chimpanzees. I hold multiple degrees and professional certifications in animal related fields. I am an Animal Behaviorist, Primatologist, and certified in canine rehabilitation, first aid and CPR. I am the founder of a non profit that provides wheelchairs for rescue dogs, Aprile’s Memorial French Bulldogs Special Needs Support Services. I have been entrusted with the care of dogs for many prominent families and celebrities who value my deep love of dogs and devotion to treating every animal in my care with compassion, patience and understanding.

I have a rescue French Bulldog Mildred. I have had French Bulldogs for 30 years before they were the most popular breed. I have a very diverse skill set caring for dogs with special needs and behavioral issues. Working with the rescue and rehabilitation of animals as long as I have allows me to not only care for dogs basic needs when they stay in my care but also allows me to offer them extra support in understanding their individual personality and behaviors. I am world renowned for my work in Animal Rehabilitation- for dogs and chimps.
“Caroline is the absolute best. Another sitter cancelled last minute and she was able to step in. She sent SO many pictures and videos of our cats which we loved, we always worry when we’re away and knew after the first day that they were in good hands. She was super communicative and overall the exact type of sitter we’d want. We will absolutely be using her again!”
About: Your pet is family. I treat them with love and sincere care. Their safety, happiness and well-being are my priories. Walk, play, quality time together.. My schedule is wide-open. I have the ability to make drop-in visits, walk, play, sit in your home, give medications. (Able to help doctors/nurses and those who work alternate schedules, 12 hour shifts and those who want to leave their pets in good hands). I will listen to your routine, your pet schedule, your pet’s personality, likes/dislikes and behaviors. I will follow your instructions and provide updates whether it be walking, feeding, playing, sitting your pet.
About: I’m a teacher, lifelong animal lover, and proud pet owner who understands how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else's care. I treat every animal like they're my own: with patience, attention, and lots of care. I'm detail-oriented, reliable, and always make safety a priority (yes, I'm the person who triple-checks the door!). While this is my first time offering pet care services professionally, I've been trusted for years by family, friends, and neighbors to care for their cats and dogs. I know peace of mind matters, and I'll do everything I can to make both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for. During the summer I have lots of flexibility, with the exception of the first week of August when I’ll be on vacation. As the school year begins toward the end of August, my availability will be before 7:30 AM and after 3:00 PM. If you need someone to care for your pets, feel free to reach out or keep me in mind! I’m happy to offer boarding in my home, but I like to be upfront about a few things so you can decide what’s best for your pet. I have a dog who gets very excited whenever he sees other dogs. He’s friendly, but his excitement can sometimes be overwhelming or intimidating, even if the dogs are separated by a gate or in different areas of the house. I also have a cat, but she typically keeps to herself and will simply hide when visitors are around. I don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is on a leash, just as it is for my own dog. With those things in mind, I’ll do everything I can to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your pet. If your pet would be more comfortable staying in their own home, I’m more than happy to provide drop-in visits or house sitting there as well!
About: I’ve had 2-3 dogs in my house since I was in middle school. Since high school, I began dog, cat, and baby sitting for my neighbor on a regular basis and even continued while on breaks from college and after graduation. For the past 5 years, I was the primary dog, cat, and house sitter for a lovely family. My senior year of college I fostered a dog, which my family and I then went on to adopt. I have experience with dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and ages. After helping a variety of dogs & cats in NYC, I have relocated to Connecticut, and I’m looking to help out any people and pets in my area! I currently work a hybrid schedule and am onsite on Tues-Thurs. My work allows me to take calls on walks and have the ability to take animals out for walks as needed! We currently live in a condo with easy outdoor access. I do not have any pets. I am comfortable with crate training, but my home is also flexible to let your pet(s) roam if that is preferred!
About: As a dog lover for as long as I can remember, I truly enjoy expanding my caregiving services to others. My household has raised many types of breeds, from German shepherds to golden retrievers to miniature schnauzers. For the last 10 years, I’ve cared for my close friends’ and neighbors’ dogs for their vacations and trips, and would like to offer my services to those who are looking for peace of mind while away! I live very close to a state park for long walks, a fenced in pool area, and spacious backyard. Since my yard is not fenced in, I allow the dogs to roam freely within the pool area or take multiple walks per day in my neighborhood. I also understand what it’s like to worry about my pups while traveling, and would love to be the sense of relief for your four-legged family members! I currently work part-time and my daily schedule tends to vary; however, your pet is my priority before and after my scheduled shift. I understand the importance of consistency in a dog’s routine and will try to stick to it as closely as possible. A lot of love. Additionally, as someone who loves the outdoors, I am happy to host or take care of pets who need a lot of exercise. In terms of safety, I never let them off leash unless the area is fenced in.

“Melissa was great with my boys! Super reliable, excellent communication, and friendly. I was so happy to see that they seemed comfortable with her from the photos she sent. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing drop ins for kitties!”
“Gabby did a good job with Eve. She left us some notes and sent lots of pictures. We're happy to use her services again in the future and know that Eve will be in good hands.”

“I have so many good things to say about Lily and Uhm! They both did an amazing job taking care of my elderly dog and two cats. They followed feeding instructions carefully, played with and loved my dog as I would, and also took care of my apartment during an unexpected hurricane that passed through NYC! They shared daily pictures of my animals and communicated with me regularly which took the stress off of me worrying about my animals/kids while I was on vacation. I was able to thoroughly enjoy my vacation because of them!!! I highly recommend asking for their help taking care of your furry babies!!!!!”
About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

About: I’ve been caring for my own dogs as well as pets of family and friends since a young age, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I treat every pet as if they were my own—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My dog is friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys playing with other pets. With your permission, I’m also happy to provide high-quality photos during each visit, so you can see your pet happy and content. I currently work full-time in a hybrid position, which means I’m home about 3 out of 5 weekdays. I’m also available most weekends and enjoy spending time outdoors. During the warmer months, I often take my dog to the dog park for play and exercise. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship, whether we're relaxing at home or enjoying time outside. I do my best to ensure each pet feels safe, happy, and part of the family during their stay. I have an open, unfenced yard, so for safety, all pets will be leashed while outside. We also have a spacious deck where your pet can relax and enjoy the summer breeze. Inside the home, your pet will be free to roam and play under supervision.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hawleyville
Giovanna took fantastic care of our incredibly needy, occasionally evil little boy! Great updates, excellent attention to detail and even took in packages for us that I forgot were being delivered while we were away 🫣😆 Thank you for your dedication to our Zephyr!!!
Saori watched our two dogs in her house and paid home visits to our two cats. Unfortunately, a couple of days into the booking, our dogs started having diarrhea and the female was vomiting. We requested that Saori take them to our vet. Luckily, testing revealed nothing serious, Saori gave the dogs their meds, and they recuperated after fluids at the vet. They got to swim in her pool, went to the dog park, and other adventures. Saori also got the thankless task of cleaning up a mouse carcass that Vinny left, as well as some piles of vomit. Saori went above and beyond when caring for our pets. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her in the future.
Punctual, communicative, respectful, and knowledgeable! My cats have a particular dynamic and my older cat has some behavioral idiosyncrasies—all of which Lily took with great stride and understanding. She asked all the right questions and was very thorough in her visits (cleaning, playing, separating my cats for feeding, and more!). My finicky cats opened up to her quickly and my shy one even rolled around in her belly for her! This is the first time I needed a pet sitter and I’m glad my cats and I got to experience it through Lily!

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.
