About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and have a dog named Jaxson who is the center of my world. I absolutely love animals and love caring for them. My current schedule is very flexible and I work from home for the most part. This gives me the opportunity to work around any kind of walking or pet care schedule and really prioritize your pets needs. I have a 12 year old dog and live in an apartment so my place isn’t the best for hosting other pets. I can only care for pets in their homes.
About: I've taken care of family and friends dogs for years ranging from just checking in on them during the day to staying with them or taking them back home to stay with me. I currently work at the airport and have 3 hour gaps between flights to take car of animals between. I am week on week off so my availability is wide open when I am not at the airport. I have one dog that's super friendly, with a dog park in my apartment complexe as well as a dog park half a block away to take the dogs to go play.
“My cats can be a little shy with strangers and it seems like they warmed right up to her from day one! I came home from a week away to both of them happy and well taken care of, she did an excellent job!”
“Phenomenal! I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my kitties for a whole week. I read all the reviews and Hannah seemed to fit the bill perfectly. My cats are healthy and happy because of all the attention that Hannah was able to give them. I am so thankful!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life. I grew up around small chihuahuas and Pomeranians and have a special place in my heart for them. However my love of dogs extends to the big guys too. Hire me and I guarantee your best friend will find a friend in me. I’m currently working full time but I only work 4 days a weeks. so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups Monday - Wednesday. I can easily work out a schedule that works for you. I have much respect for your pet and your home. We can work out specifics for overnight stays to best accommodate your pets needs and yours.
“Mikayla was an amazing sitter for our scheduled drop-in! She came to hangout with our two cats, both who are pretty shy, but they immediately warmed up to her! She had an aura that makes animals feel automatically comfortable around her. I couldn’t recommend booking with Mikayla enough! Thank you for all your help Mikayla!”
“We had just gotten a puppy and were in a pinch, so we needed someone to do drop in visits on last minute notice! Drewe responded promptly to us and was more than willing to stop in and check up on our pups 3x a day! She was punctual, communicated well and our pups looked so happy with each visit! She even gave us great recommendations on how to avoid falling victim to our puppy’s shark teeth! We appreciate her so much and will definitely reach out in the future! 10/10 recommend!”
“Shyla was the perfect match for drop in visits for our dog and cat! She ensured that all their needs were met and was very consistent with her visits. Her communication was excellent and there were always cute pictures included. She went above and beyond to make sure we could return to a calm house after our trip. Overall would highly recommend and we will definitely plan to book with her again!”
“If you're looking for a trustworthy, reliable dog walker, I can't recommend Claire enough! She took wonderful care of Sam, kept me posted with photo updates, and made sure all needs were met. Knowing my dog was in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind while away. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have grown up around cats & dogs as long as I can remember. From puppies to adults & seniors I’ve always had a love for them. I’ve had several dogs of all ages throughout my life. I’ve always prioritized their happiness and wellbeing and will do anything in my power to keep them protected and cared for. Currently, I have a kitten (Esther), and a dog (Santo 4yrs). I’ve had them both from 8wks old and they are my world. I completely understand that sometimes it gets a little tricky to manage their schedule along with yours, so I’d love to help! I’m an active person and love to walk! Although I’m new to Rover I have several years of animal experience! I’m currently working evening shifts and working my way towards an EMT certification, my mornings and mid days are available for quality time with your furry friends! In some cases I am fully available weekends! I always prioritize safety with my own pets & will always do the same for yours! My dog is always on leash with a harness for HIS protection. I prefer harnesses as they don’t put pressure on the throat if they pull on a leash vs a collar. Even my kitty is leash and harness trained! I’m aware of our surroundings and can quickly recognize when another animal in our path is uneasy or not friendly & will always avoid and maintain space.
“I have used Mary Jane twice now. I have yet to be disappointed, Mary is great at sending pictures and keeping me in the loop of what’s going on. My dogs gave her a run for her money this time but she was a trooper the whole time. I will be using her in the future for sure.”
“Kyla helped us out in a last minute pinch! She took care of our kitty and went the extra mile with support in keeping her space clean. Would recommend and book again, thank you!”
About: I have been taking care of animals my whole life and always loved them. I’ve watch a lot of my siblings and friends dogs and house sat for them before. I ll do a very good job and try to make your pet feel safe and at home I’m currently in college to be a respiratory therapists and I most my classes are online or the in person is only 5 minutes from my house so I can fit in pet care whenever I don’t have class I have a fenced yard and some dogs beds I have one little dog at home who is very friendly so he can keep your dog company.

About: My animal care "job" started when I was 5 or 6. I had cats growing up my whole life and I've fallen in love with being a dog mom too. My neighbors would describe me as responsible, kind and patient. I have experience with giving oral and transdermal medications to dogs and cats. I'd love to take care of your critter in the way that you're needing most! I love to be outside, and animals bring me a ton of joy. Energetic breeds or animals requiring special medical care are not a problem. I'd love to fill my days with dog walks and home visits. I offer drop-in visits to your home, dog walking and overnight pet sitting. Giving your pup a break during the day is no problem and I like long walks to burn off extra energy for me and them. Safety is my number one priority and I hope to build positive relationships with my customers.
“This was my second time booking Arianna for drop in visits to my cat, Thomas. She always arrives at the appointed times and gave my little guy lots of love and attention. She’s very communicative and always makes sure to reach out to me during her visits. Thomas is very comfortable around her, which makes me super happy! I will absolutely be booking her 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 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.
