“We had the absolute pleasure of having Tabitha look after our cherished PussPuss while we were away, and we cannot sing her praises enough! From the very beginning, Tabitha demonstrated an unparalleled dedication and love for our furry family member that truly set our minds at ease. What stood out to us was not just the routine care but the genuine affection and time Tabitha invested. She went above and beyond every single day, ensuring PussPuss was not only fed and clean but also thoroughly entertained. Whether it was through engaging playtime, thoughtful cuddles, or simply talking to PussPuss, it was clear she was committed to making our beloved feel loved and comfortable in our absence. Tabitha’s communication was exemplary. She provided us with frequent updates that were not only informative but also heartwarming. The photos and videos she sent us were a source of joy and reassurance, showing PussPuss happy and content under her care. Furthermore, the video conference she arranged was beyond what we expected; seeing PussPuss respond to Tabitha’s voice and care firsthand was incredibly touching and a testament to the bond they had formed. The cleanliness and tidiness of our home upon our return also spoke volumes of Tabitha’s conscientiousness. It was clear she treated our home with respect, allowing us to come back to a serene and orderly space, with a happy PussPuss waiting for us. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Tabitha for not just meeting but far exceeding our expectations. Her love, dedication, and the extra steps she took to ensure both PussPuss and we were happy and informed were truly remarkable. We wholeheartedly recommend Tabitha to any pet parent looking for someone who will treat their pet not just as a job but as a member of the family. Thank you, Tabitha, for everything. You have our deepest appreciation and utmost respect for the love and care you provided to PussPuss. We look forward to having you care for PussPuss again in the future!”
“Have used Kyleigh a few times to check on our sweet girl and I love her visits because she communicates wonderfully and gives so many updates and photos/ videos during her visits. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl and will be using Kyleigh in the future!”
“Amanda went above and beyond for our dog! She treated him like her own and spoiled him! She is extremely reliable and provides detailed updates while we were away. We will use Amanda every time for our dog!”
“Katie did a great job watching my cat Carlos! She was very responsible, caring, and professional. She kept my mind at ease while being away knowing that Carlos was in good hands.”
“Cindy is absolutely amazing with my cat Louie. She goes above and beyond for his drop in visits. He is usually a touch-me-not for most people, but he seems to really enjoy Cindy's company. She spends the visits petting him and just "being there" with him. I believe it gives him great comfort while I am away from home. Thank you Cindy. You rock!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong foundation in professional animal care and my passion for creating stress-free, positive experiences for pets. I’m Fear Free Certified, so I’m trained in techniques that help reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in animals—especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. I’m also a veterinary professional where on a daily basis I deal with animal behavior, health, and basic care. This knowledge helps me better understand your pet’s needs, whether they’re a rambunctious puppy, a senior with special care requirements, or anything in between. I approach every animal with patience, empathy, and respect—and I truly treat them like part of the family. I usually am free 6 days a week! My schedule is based on where I am that day or what other gigs I have going on. I have reliable transportation and will be able to watch pets in their home if need be to avoid stress of car rides and new places. I am very attentive to each pets need, because just like humans, each pet is different!
“Tiffany was amazing! She took such good care of our 4 dogs while we were out of town for the week. She kept them on schedule and in their normal routines, it's like we were even gone! She went above and beyond to make sure we came home to a calm house.”
“Bre rooked really good care of our kitties. Even though it was a last minute request, she accommodated setting up a last minute meet n greet and looking after my kitties. She provided several updates, pictures and loved on them while we were away. I would definitely recommend her to any pet owners looking for a pet sitter.”
About: Hi pet friends! I love to go for walks- play ball with you and scratch your belly! I have two dogs and a cat who love to play with each other! I am currently not working and have a very open schedule. I have transportation to get to your house for fun and interactive play dates with your furry family members. I have a large, fenced yard where our two pups can do all the zoomies they need to do safely. My cat is an indoor family member. She loves to play with a mouse on a string. We feed all three of our animal's high quality and nutritious food and yes, they do get treats- not all day but at least once a day! We all need a treat now and then! Our dogs and cat are our family- we protect their health with regular vet checkups, keep them safe from fireworks, play with them to nurture their curiosity and of course snuggle and love them as much as we can. I also love to camp and we take our two dogs Sammi and Presley and the cat too!! Miss Aurora loves to go on adventures with us! I wouldn't have it any other way!
“Sarah was so incredibly amazing! She was able to watch our Duke last minute and even went over and beyond by bringing our packages in! She left great report cards and photos and was so kind and communicative. We’ll be using her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Traci, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I believe pets are family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I live in a pet-friendly home with a large, fully fenced backyard that is perfect for safe playtime and exercise. Whether your pup loves to run around, play fetch, or just bask in the sun, they’ll have plenty of space to enjoy themselves. I’m empathetic to animals’ needs and personalities—whether your dog is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is to give them a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while you’re away. I currently have a flexible working schedule, if your dog is in my care, I will be with them the entire time playing in the back yard, going on walks, and lots of scratches and cuddles. I have a fully fenced yard with no gaps or loose boards, your dog will have full range to run around and play. I have a 4 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/poodle mix, who loves meeting new friends and would love to keep your fur baby company. Upon meeting, I would like to know your dog’s routine (feeding, medication, crate time if used, allergies) so that I can give your dog the best care possible!

My boy was 14.5 years old when he passed in June 2026. My girl passed in April 2024. Being able to care for other animals while not fully ready to have my own fur baby again will help me with the loneliness of not having my baby here any longer. I am available for all care levels from drop in to house sitting. I am currently unemployed, so i currently have open availability to walk and care for others pets. I am available any day of the week, and look forward to connecting with you and your beloved fur babies. I have a nice size yard that is fully fenced allowing dogs to be able to run and play freely. I do have another dog in the home who is friendly with other dogs, she is an Australian Shepherd. I am able to crate either dog at anytime if necessary.

About: Hello! My name is Kenzie and I am excited to be your pets friend!! I have experience with many different types of animals, as I’ve worked with neighbor and friends animals as well as at a petting zoo that over the last 14 years. Within that experience I have handled reptiles, rodents, small pigs, dogs and cats! There are obviously many animals I have yet to have a lot of experience with, but I am amazing at following well detailed instructions. I am happy and excited to get as many photos or check ins as makes each individual pet parent happy and comfortable. As an added bonus, my eldest cat has been on insulin shots twice a day for four years now. So I am familiar with handling animal’s for shots, and I’ve also had to administer pills as well. Thank you for your time and consideration! I have a fairly flexible schedule and am more than willing to work with pet parents on days and times that work for them. My availability on the weekend may vary, but I am usually pretty open during the week. I do not plan to bring peoples animals into my home for the time being as I have special need animals of my own that would not fair well with it
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve always grown up with them and currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats I take care of as well!

Jessica was great! One of my cats is very shy and she won him over while I was away. She provided updates with cute pictures of them. She was very responsive when I reached out with questions. I felt confident they were in good hands. I will rebook with her again and definitely recommend her!

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.
