About: I've taken care of my own dogs for nearly a decade. As a teenager I spent a short amount of time as a dog/house sitter for a neighbor. I currently work part-time in childcare so I have plenty of time and energy to spend with your pets and provide a fun, safe, and loving environment. I have two friendly small dogs who I take for frequent walks as we don't have a fenced in yard. Since I will be taking care of dogs outside of my home, this isn't an issue. However, it has given me plenty of dog-walking experience. I'm committed to the safety and well-being of the animals in my care.

“Sierra was Amazing! I had worries finding someone who was able to help with 2 puppies, both different needs and schedules; especially with one who needed to be given Medication. My boys both warmed to her quickly and I loved she had playtime with my pup who was unable to go on walks to stimulate him since he has a broken leg. Will different go to her again if I need someone. Thank you Sierra!”

About: All long as I could remember I helped raise pet rabbits, as well as watching my neighbors pets as well as my family friends animals while they were on vacation. Currently I’m in thatcher going to Eastern Arizona college studying to be a physical therapist, so I’m in class MWF until noon and on TTh I am busy from 3-7pm. I also work for the school occasionally on the weekends and once a week. If your pet is young, old, big or small I am so sure I will be pampering them. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take care of your pets. I also am trustworthy, reliable and flexible. I even wish I could have a pet but due to me living in the school dorms I can’t which is why you can trust me to take care of your pets.

About: Hi, I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds! I’ve been caring for family members’ and neighbors’ dogs since I was 10 years old, and at 13, I adopted my own puppy—an experience that taught me so much about the love, patience, responsibility, and attention dogs deserve. I also had the opportunity to intern at a veterinary clinic, where I gained valuable experience bathing dogs and observing veterinary check-ups and surgeries. This experience gave me an even deeper understanding of proper pet care and the importance of keeping dogs comfortable, safe, and happy. Your dog isn’t just another booking to me—they’re family. I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own. Whether they’re energetic and playful, calm and cuddly, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them the attention, companionship, and care they deserve! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I’m active duty, but currently on med hold with plenty of time to care for your pet(s). I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I would appreciate a couple days notice if my services are needed in order to schedule around my military obligations. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications or special instructions, potty breaks, walks, and any other needs they may have. I personally have a fenced backyard and allow dogs inside. I also love providing updates and photos while watching your pet(s) so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Wah Gwaan! My Name is Ronley and I just moved to California from Jamaica! I am a dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience raising, caring for, and training dogs. In Jamaica, I helped run a kennel with more than 35 dogs at a time and regularly worked on basic training and behavior. I was never formally certified because certification was not required there, but I gained years of real-world experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Since moving to the U.S., I’m excited to get back into the dog world. I love everything from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, and I bring lots of energy, patience, and love to every dog I care for. I currently work part-time and am available Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, with additional availability depending on the day as I work Nights. During my off-season, from November 2026 through March 2027, I’ll have full-time availability for pet care, walks, drop-ins, and plenty of playtime! Safety is always a priority for me. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep doors and gates secure, provide plenty of supervision, and make sure pets feel comfortable and relaxed. I also respect every client’s home and treat their pets like family.

About: I’ve taken care of my personal animals since I was a little girl and have been pet sitting for about 4 years. I have about 4 years of Veterinary experience currently working as a Veterinary Assistant. I am currently a vet assistant at a veterinary clinic but have free time whenever I’m not there. Animals are just a part of my life and I’d love for that to continue. I will care for pets in a safe and loving way. I also will follow the instructions given to me by the owners and will take good care of any property or home I am in. I am very cautious when it comes to each animal, their behaviors and their needs. I’m very understanding about pets being very nervous, I go very slow and let them warm up to me in their own way, being nervous is normal and nothing to be shamed for.

About: My name is Ash and I am an Eagle Scout who loves animals. I've always had a way with animals and showing them love, comfort, and support. I guarantee your dog will be cared as if he/she were my dog. I will be your dogs best friend and your dog will be happy and satisfied like you will during my services ☺. What I've also enjoyed about animals (especially dogs) is their instinct to give and receive love to humans as we do to them. They're such admirable and loveable animals. Which is one of the reasons I got into this profession and love working with animals. With me, your dog will be happy and excited!

About: Animal care has always been a huge part of my life and my strongest passion. I grew up on a ranch so My life has always been about animal care. For many years now I’ve worked as a volunteer for many local rescues as well as independently fostered many animals as well. The feeling of saving an animal from a horrible situation, showing them how love and attention feels and finding them their forever home and family will always be my most rewarding accomplishments and such an amazing feeling. Aside from rescue work, I’ve been pet sitting since I was in high school. It started with family and friends and just grew over time. I have an amazing clientele that I’ve had the privilege to work with over the years and I enjoy creating that trust and bond with a pet as well, I feel that it makes the time away from their parents so much more comfortable and enjoyable for them because I know a lot of animals get separation anxiety because they don’t understand what is happening and change is hard. That’s also why I like to try to keep them on the same schedule and routine as much as possible to attempt to make the transition as easy as possible. I’m experienced with elderly animals as well as special needs and puppies too! There isn’t much I cannot handle lol. I also have experience with reptiles, farm animals and exotics too. I’ve taken nutrition courses, I’m certified in CPR and grooming. I’ve taken behavioral classes and poison control courses as well. I know how to administer basically any form of medication, including IV. I love to take pets on walks when they’re in my car because it helps with anxiety and it’s all around enjoyable for us both! I may be small, but I’ve managed to walk two huskies and a pit bull at once, multiple times so personally I feel like that’s impressive lol. I take them out for many potty breaks and I understand accidents happen in the house or car sometimes as well, so I use all natural cleaners when needed. I like to give many updates, weather it’s for drop ins then I’ll let you know when I arrive and leave and send pictures in between. If I’m house sitting I’ll send random pictures and updates through out the day/night and if for whatever reason I have to leave(to the store or to get food) I also let you know. And house sitting is the same. I also have my mobile grooming kit with me at all times too so If you think your baby needs a bath, their nails cut/grinded down, teeth cleaned, or even fur colored(100% vegan and animal safe dye only) please feel free to let me know any time. I have a simple form that I ask for you to fill out during our meet, it’s just basic questions like food schedules, any allergies, medication information(If applicable) vets information and misc. things You think I should know. I have had many people even just write me a care sheet which also works. I prefer the form/care sheet method just because everything important is right there so if eliminates any room for error. I make goodie baskets for new clients as well as the end of each visit I leave a little report card you know exactly how amazing they did! I make the treats in the baskets from scratch even if they have an allergy I can accommodate! I can make treats for all animals as well. If you have any further question please feel free to reach out, I will always respond and in a very timely manner. I hope to hear from you soon and I hope I can become your pets new best friend! I’m currently working by appointment only, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I can almost always work my schedule to fit yours, if there’s any scheduling conflict I will know at least 24-48 hours ahead of time and I will 100% come up with a plan with you that works! Everyone is free roam in my house but I do have multiple size kennels set up in my home as well(they are comfy and cozy as well lol) so If you have a kennel trained baby who needs them, just let me know! I also can help out with kennel training too if needed. I have a fenced in yard but they are never unsupervised. And if we are going for a walk, I like to keep in inside my gated community where there’s hardly any traffic and there’s tons of grass to sniff and enjoy! Lol If I'm not out doing TNR and rescue work I enjoy spending time with your fur baby and would love to do this full time. I myself have a fensed in yard for everyone to roam and play, but still always being attentive and making sure everyone is safe too!

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 .

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 , 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
