About: I have owned pets all of my life. Over the years, I have owned dogs, cats, chinchillas, and conures. Pets are members of your family, not just animals living in your house! I am 65 years old and I currently substitute teach part time. I would be very flexible with hours to visit to your home and when I come see your pet; I will treat them as if they were my own. When coming into your home, I would take the time to get to know your pets needs and personality. Every pet is an individual. They need to be treated with respect and loving kindness.
“Kathryn (Grace) was excellent with drop in visits for my cat while I was on vacation. She's reliable, communicated efficiently, easy to work with, and my cat was healthy and happy when I got home. I had peace of mind the whole time away.”
“Lyric was very reliable. She did drop in visits for us for a whole month while we were on vacation. Our dog was well taken care of and it was nice to have confidence that she would come! Would definitely recommend.”
“This is my third time I asked her to watch my dogs. She’s amazing and my dogs loves her!! I feel safe when I’m gone bc I know she will take care of my dogs. I wouldn’t ask any other dog sitters but Julianne!”
“I booked Ashley for a drop in visit with my dog Freida and she did a fantastic job. Great communication before and during the visit. She showed up on time and gave Freida lots of attention and made sure she went to the bathroom. I will definitely book Ashley again.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life- they are my family. My love for animals led me on the path towards veterinary. Now I am attending Tri-County technical college to transfer to Clemson for veterinary. Life is beautiful💕 I currently have college classes every weekday, however my available days are Sunday, Monday, Friday, and Saturday. Monday and Fridays I am free after 2PM. However my animals at home receive lots of attention when I get home from school everyday and love to play outside. Following your instructions and having both you AND your dog feeling safe and secure in the care I provide is very important to me. If possible I’d love to have close communication with the pet parent to prevent any mistakes.
“Corrina, is AMAZING to say the least!! She was patient, kind and very loving. Communication was outstanding, and always on time. I hate bragging on her so much, because I don't want her to ever be too busy for our family!!! This is definitely her calling and any family would be blessed to have her!!”
“Andrea was such a good fit for a last minute need. She took care of both of my pups, was super prompt and communicative and really put me at ease. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I am a dependable and attentive, pet lover, with experience, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort needs, and I take pride and making them feel safe, love, and stress-free, while their owners are away. My ex experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, overnight care, and maintaining consistent schedules. I’m comfortable with energetic pets, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own, always focus on providing reliable care, clear, communication, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet loves long walks, cuddle time, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to tailor care to fit their needs. I work 8-4 Monday through Friday, I already have a dog and would work any pet into our routine during the week. I can do stop-ins before and after work, and my weekends are very flexible for full attention on pet care. I have a fenced yard, lots of comfy places to lay, a screened in porch for shaded relaxation. My two cats have grown up with dogs their whole life and just mind their business, they may even play with your pet if they are in the mood.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Heathwood
This was my first time using Rover, and I am extremely pleased with the experience and the service provided. Aside from how easy the app is to use, Elizabeth was the perfect sitter! I knew the moment we met for our “meet and greet” that she would be a great fit. Her kind and sweet spirit was immediately apparent, and I felt confident that I had made the right choice. Elizabeth went above and beyond in caring for my fur babies. She provided detailed updates and wonderful pictures with every visit, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. It was clear how much genuine care and attention she gave them. I will absolutely use Elizabeth for future stays and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive sitter!

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
