“Winter was awesome!! She followed all of our instructions and was great at communicating. She took wonderful care of our 2 kitties and we will be rebooking for any future trips! :)”
About: I've had dogs my whole life, love them all! I have the sweetest Black Lab here that absolutely loves a playmate! I work from home, so your fur baby will have plenty of care and company! I work from home, so your fur baby will have plenty of care and company! I have a good sized fenced in back yard for running around and play time. Plenty of time for personal attention, playtime and walks. Pets are allowed throughout the house except the bedrooms. The fenced in yard offers safety for your pet to roam around.
About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.
“Heather is a life saver. I didn't have my door code working for her TWICE and she patiently waited on me to fix it. She showed how dedicated she is to caring for my cat. He loves her! I can tell he was purring in the photos. (His Lil nose scrunches up when he purrs)”
“Kate took care of my fur family while I was out of town. I was often worried about them, but Kate put my mind at ease by providing me with regular check ins on how everyone was doing. Kate sent photos of my cats showing that she spent time with them. Seeing them sitting on her lap brought me so much peace. I looked forward to receiving the photos of them she sent! Thanks, Kate!”
“Jade was absolutely amazing with all of our animals. She's very kind, thoughtful, and thorough. She is an excellent communicator, giving us lots of updates on our animals for each check-in. I highly recommend her if you're looking for responsible, reliable help with any of your pets. We will definitely be booking with Jade again.”
“Meredith is the best sitter I’ve found since I moved here- such a lovely person, great communication, great follow-through and sent so many photos of my dog looking super happy doing his normal daily routine, I felt so at ease knowing he was getting enough attention and would definitely seek her out again!”
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 7 years old. What sets me apart is the genuine care I give to every pet. I focus on personalized attention, clear communication with owners, and creating a calm, loving environment so pets feel safe and happy while you're away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I schedule my day around visits, walks, feeding times, and play so each pet gets reliable care and attention. I treat every pet like family. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also provide lots of attention, love, supervision and updates so both pets and owners feel safe and at ease.
About: Hello! I am 38, been in Durham since 2013, and I have lived with several friends who had dogs, so I got my start taking care of them when our human housemates were out of town. One of those longtime housemates is a certified dog trainer who had three dogs when we lived together, so I learned a lot from them about dog care and behavior! In my mid 20’s, I was referred to a friend’s parents for overnight dog sitting. I ended up loving it and have been dog sitting for them for 10+years. I’ve also taken care of their three adult children’s pets when they’re on vacation many times, proving that they trust me with their whole family 💜 Three of the dogs I have taken care of have been seniors with medications, special diets and/or needs, such as more frequent potty breaks, or help getting up and down stairs. I enjoy spending special time with those elderly family members. Since then, I have been referred to several other people for overnight stays. I have a few regular clients whose cats and dogs I stay with as well. I grew up a cat person, rescuing and raising kittens from a feral cat colony in our neighborhood. We had six of our own throughout the years who all lived to be between 18-22 years old! I have also taken care of chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs several times. I love to garden and take care of plants, as I have worked on a couple farms for several years and currently live with someone who owns a landscaping/garden business 🌱 I am currently in between jobs while pursuing a new career. Previously, I have managed catering companies for the last 10 years. While I am job hunting, I am very flexible to spend as much time as needed with your pet! When I am staying with a new dog, I make sure to use the owners’ commands, following their instructions to a ‘T’. I believe that dogs can sense when someone isn’t comfortable with them, so I try to establish a trusting relationship where the dog will respect me while also feeling calm with me, during the time when their person isn’t home. I would love to have repeat clients in order to build a longer relationship with them. It always feels so good when I show up to a client’s house and their pet is as excited to see me as I am to see them💖
“Katy is absolutely wonderful! We have a three-legged golden who needs some extra care and she did an amazing job making sure she was comfortable and moving. Will definitely be using Katy again!”
“Jerrica was amazing with my pup! She took the time to ask questions and learn about his routine to ensure he and I were both comfortable. She was always right on time for visits and showed so much care and patience with him. My dog was given lots of cuddles and love and I’m so happy I found such a trust worthy and caring sitter for him. We will absolutely be using Jerrica’s services again and again.”
About: I have always been surrounded by dog, whether it was my own or taking care of others. I believe that dogs deserve as much love as they give us. I am a homebody, but that means that I'll be more available to hang out with your dog for walks or trips to the park. I live in a townhouse apartment, which means that I have experience with walking dogs around non-fenced areas. This also means I will be observant if you do have a fenced area.
About: I can’t have a pup of my own so caring for other people’s dogs is what I love to do! I have boarded a dog for 8 months in the past and continue to house and dog sit whenever the opportunity arises. I have 5 years of dog handling experience and I take pride in giving owners solid peace of mind so they can go about their day knowing their 4 legged family member is well taken care of. I understand that every dog is different and you can rest assure I will go over each and every detail concerning your pup. When I care for dogs, I treat them as my own, providing lots of love and attention. I promise to treat your pup as you would, a day full of walks and belly rubs.
About: Hey dog pawmily! I’m Hadassah, Hade for short! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child. As a child, we went through experiences with a wide variety of pets including multiple dogs, four cats, a bunny, fish, and three parakeets. Caring for so many different animals has truly taught me patience, responsibility, and truly how to meet each pet’s unique needs. Currently, I have and take care of my dog, Diogee, who is a 3 year old Maltese-Shitzu mix and enjoys meeting new friends. Having my dog, Diogee, by my side throughout my transition as a transfer student in my senior year at UNC chapel hill has shown me just how important pets are to our lives. Hopefully your dog will either have the opportunity to meet/walk/play with me (yay!) or stay in my safe HOA home located in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas and a new dog park currently being built nearby. I, Hadassah, can assure you that when your dog is cared for by me, they’ll be treated with the same care and patience that I give my own. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I care for my own dog, Diogee, every day. 🐶 I'm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on availability. In my home, pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh cool water, meals according to their schedule, and a safe, pet-friendly environment. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine.
About: Hi! I'm Jenna! I work from home and absolutely love dogs. If you're looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, you've come to the right place! I have plenty of time to spoil your pup while you're away! Boarding: I only board dogs from the same household for a comfortable and stress-free environment for your dog. I accept a maximum of two dogs at a time. Experience: With years of pet sitting experience and having had my own dog for seven years, I understand the importance of providing a safe and loving environment for your pets. You can trust that your dogs will be in good hands while they stay with me. Special Needs: If your dog has any special needs or requirements, just let me know, and I will do my best to accommodate them! Whether it's medication administration, specific feeding schedules, or any other requests, I'll make sure your dog's unique needs are met. During your dog's stay, they will have access to regular walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'll make sure they feel right at home and receive the love and care they deserve. Home Environment: I live in a pet-friendly duplex with no other pets. Your dog will receive my undivided attention and won't have to share space with unfamiliar animals.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Heather Glen
Julie was absolutely wonderful with my cat! 🐱❤️ She was caring, responsible, and very attentive, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my cat was in such good hands. She kept me updated and treated my cat with so much love and patience. I truly appreciate all the care she provided and would definitely recommend Julie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. I would be very happy to have her care for my cat again!
Alexandra is always my first choice to watch my dog. She’s caring, reliable, and a great communicator. With all the troubles that can happen with flights, last-minute changes are sometimes unavoidable, and she handled them with total understanding and flexibility. I couldn’t be happier with her care. Thank you so much, Alexandra!
Emeline was absolutely amazing with my two dogs. From the moment I hired her, I felt complete peace knowing they were in loving, attentive, and capable hands. She treated them with genuine care, patience, and warmth, like they were her own. I could tell my dogs were happy, calm, and well cared for when I returned, which speaks volumes about the trust and bond she created with them. Her communication was thoughtful, her presence reassuring, and her energy exactly what my dogs needed. I am beyond happy with Emeline and truly grateful for the care she provided. I would book her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone exceptional to care for their pets.

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.
