“Sam does an excellent job. The cats were just as fat and happy upon my return. It was a week long trip and knowing Sam was taking care of the cats was a huge relief. I've already hired her for my next trip.”
“I'm new to the area and no longer have my best friend to cat sit. I wanted to travel to spend Christmas with family so turned to Rover. I felt confident leaving them in Ken's care even before I left. He lives up to his rating!”
“Emily was fantastic with our 5 cats for the past week. She took care of everything as described and kept everyone very happy. What started with only 2 cats wanting to hang out at the beginning of the week, ended with Emily winning everyone's trust by the end. Would highly recommend!”
“Amanda was amazing from the first meeting to the end of my vacation. Communication (pics included) was great. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and share concerns. My boy Lotus is a scaredy-cat and quite shy but he took to Amanda day one. I felt very confident my babies were very well cared for while I was away. Great relief knowing I didn’t have to worry about them and could focus on fun.”
“Taylor was awesome! she came over last minute because I unexpectedly had to stay late at work. She followed instructions and communicated very well. It meant a lot that she was able to let them out in such short notice:) would definitely book again”
About: I grew up with all different sizes and different breeds of dogs. I also dog sit for family members when asked and love to walk, feed, and bathe the animals. I’m a veterinary technician so taking care of animals is part of my everyday routine. My passion is taking care of all the little fur babies and making sure they are loved. I currently have two chihuahua mix’s and a leopard gecko so we have a daily routine of getting up to go potty, eating breakfast, playing and making sure the babies are set for the day while moms away at work.
“Fantastic experience! Alexa went above and beyond taking care of Baxter over the Fourth of July weekend. We appreciated the updates, photos, and the extra care she gave him.”
About: Hello! My name is Hayley. My first dog was given to me at the age of 4! I've grown up with dogs, cats, & horses. I've also house sat a snake before at my house for 2 weeks! I have sincere love for animals & some extra time to help you make sure your baby is safe & happy! I had a Yorkshire terrier who passed this year at the age of 17! (I even brushed his teeth daily) So honestly, I will do anything I can to help with your animal(s). I am very laid back and my schedule is pretty flexible!! Being self employed allows me to make my own schedule. I can block out times of the day to care for animals. Which is currently how I make the time. I care for your animals as if they are my own. If that means long walks and adding some playtime. Or helping an animal that needs extra care. I will do what’s necessary for your fur baby!
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years. In the last 10 years I have been fostering retired racing grey hounds and huskies so I'm ready to give every dog in between the care and attention they deserve. I have regularly watched friends and families animals since I was young. I am excited for every opportunity to get to know new dogs and fall more in love with my regulars! Please let me be your peace of mind the next time you're out of town! I'm currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to fill that time with taking care of sweet loveable pets. As with any of my ventures, I put forth 100% of my energy to making sure your pet has a great time while you're away. I guarantee a calm, happy and healthy pet upon your return! I've seen dogs become less anxious when they are staying in their own home, in the neighborhood they know. They know you will eventually return and they dont need the transition time it takes for them to become comfortable in a unfamilar place. For that reason, I do like to promote house sitting as the least stressful method of boarding for nervious pets. Please let me know if you require any plants to watered as id be happy to help you in any other way I can. I prefer to keep my bookings to one dog or one family at a time. This is to ensure I give each dog my full attention to keep them safe and happy while yall are missing eachother! This means that I prefer walking in quiet neighborhoods instead of a park with more distractions so I can get familiar with your dog's responses and they can get familiar with me during our first few walks together. After a few walks, and your permission, we can go to dog parks where we slowly work up to being unleased. I strive for 2 or more walks a day during the summer, 3 or more walks a day during spring, fall, and winter. When we arent walking or playing outside, me and your pets will be chilling inside with 2 or more feedings a day. If you book on a holiday it is likely I will have freeze dried chicken or salmon wet food to give your pet as a special holiday treat! I feel that if its a human holiday, its also a special day for our pets because they're family.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Holston Valley
McKinley is great....a very nice young lady! I got to meet her for this first time and she met my kitty boo. She was very sensitive to both my quirky cat and me! I knew he (Seven) would be in good hands! I am very particular and McKinley is too! She feels like the perfect fit for us! Her experience shows, probably because she has several animals of her own (dogs and cat) and is a vet assistant. I'm looking forward to using her again. If you need someone who will "get it" with your pet, you need to reach out to her! Thank you McKinley!
Nicole is a very sweet young lady and our dog Baxter loves her. You can see a big smile on his face in the photo. She was nice enough and brave to take our boy on a walk too. He mostly pulls and goes crazy (we're trying to get him to learn and teach him leash manners) but she was sweet and took him so he could smell all the smells and make him a happy puppers. She will be our sitter as long as we have our sweet boy and we feel lucky to have found 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.
