“Alyssa did an amazing job with Lola. This was our first time using Rover so I was nervous but Alyssa gave me reassurance and helped me feel comfortable. Lola enjoyed her time with her and will definitely be booking with Alyssa again!”

“After I met Catherine I was completely comfortable having her take care of Winnie while we were away. He even came out from his hiding place to see her. I loved the notes she sent after each visit with Winnie. We think Catherine did a great job.”

“Chris was a breath of fresh air!!!! I've had some issues with college students, so to see stability, down to earth, maturity was comforting. She clearly loved my Addi girl when she came to meet her. She sent me pictures, and Addi was tuckered out from playing, which is a good sign! Chris will become a staple for us - I completely trust and feel comfortable with her taking care of our girl”

“Natalie took great care of my kitties while I was gone, including giving medication to one. I got pictures after each of her visits, which was nice. Everything, and everyone, was in good shape when I got home. It's nice to know there's someone I can trust to take care of them when I'm gone.”

“Karmy is wonderful! She picked up a last-minute booking for my English Bulldog and took great care of him! She is extremely responsive and was very flexible with drop-in times. She provided great reports and was willing to answer any and all questions. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was taking such good care of him. :)”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have helped care for them for most of my life. I currently have two dogs of my own, including both a small and large dog, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, giving medications, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and love. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same care and patience I give my own. I currently work full-time during the week, so weekends are the perfect time for me to provide pet care. I’m available throughout Saturdays and Sundays for drop-in visits and walks, and I’m happy to spend that time giving your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and walks as needed. I’ll also respect your home and keep you updated on how your pet is doing during each visit.

About: Have had dogs in the house and taken care of dogs since I was little, including small to large dogs, low-energy and high-energy, low-maintenance and high-maintenance. I have experience with senior dogs as well as low-mobility dogs. Current college student, I am free most days and nights. My schedule is quite flexible at the moment, so I can always work with you to find the best time. I have a car, so travel to and from your house to care for your dog(s) is not an issue. I am comfortable with any and all dogs, whether they require lots of care and attention or not.

“This was my first time hiring a pet sitter for my cat Ajax, and after reading the reviews from people who've used Vivian as their sitter and seeing that she lived close by and met Vivian in person, I felt so comfortable and at ease with her as a sitter. Vivian took pictures and gave updates every day that she took care of Ajax. I highly recommend hiring Vivian to sit for your pet! Thank you!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs for family and friends. I love going on walks, playing fetch, and keeping pups happy and active, but I’m also happy to relax at home with lower-energy pets who prefer a quieter day. I have experience giving both cats and dogs oral medication and am comfortable following individual care instructions. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, care, and attention as if they were my own. Starting September 13, I’ll be working full-time Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 6 PM, so I’ll mainly be available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. (Until then my schedule is completely open!) My weekends are completely open and flexible! I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I’ll always do my best to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in their home, I’ll focus on making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, play fetch, spend time keeping them company, or simply relax with them if they prefer a quieter visit. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide, while giving them plenty of attention and affection along the way. My goal is for your pet to feel safe and cared for while you’re away.

“Jenna did a great job with my two cats. They are quite shy and go into hiding when anyone comes to the house. It took some time but by the end Ricky was greeting Jenna and getting some pets. Can't give a better endorsement than that! I had an accident while on vacation and needed help for about 5 weeks longer than planned which Jenna was able to do. That was extremely helpful. I would definitely use Jenna again an highly recommend her.”

Most bookings cost between $13 and $20 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 with handling special pet needs in Hinton. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
