“Once again Bradley went above and beyond. We had already booked him for a fun getaway but we had a family emergency instead. He noticed Knox was not eating and was not his normal self. I assumed it was because Knox was anxious because we were running around like crazy trying to pack and get out the door. When I got home I monitored Knox because Bradley was so specific on Knox’s demeanor. He refused all treats which is 100% not him. He even brought different treats over for him to try. I took Knox to the vet today and he has elevated liver enzymes. I honestly don’t know if I would have taken him if Bradley had not given us the proper updates. Knox is now resting and on meds. Bradley, you are amazing and we are so grateful for you!!!!”

“Azalya was an amazing sitter for my 2 dogs, she took care of them as if they were her own, she even brought over treats and toys for my dogs to play with. I will definitely be hiring her again when I go out of town. Thank you again.”

“Isabella did a great job taking care of our senior cat. She communicated right away when Punkin was too stressed and anxious to give her medicine. She suggested another way which worked well. The communication every day through Rover eased my mind about leaving Punkin by herself. We will definitely be using Isabella again.”

About: With over 30 years of unwavering dedication, I am a seasoned pet care provider passionate about fostering a loving and secure environment for your furry, feathery, and even unconventional companions. From dogs and cats to a diverse array of birds, cows, and yes, even skunks, I've embraced every unique challenge with genuine care and commitment. Safety is my top priority, ensuring your pets thrive under my watchful eye. As a compassionate animal lover, I understand the importance of tailoring care to individual needs. I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a devoted listener, ready to accommodate your pet's preferences and your concerns. Trust me to provide the utmost care, flexibility, and a nurturing environment for your beloved pets. The ability to set my own work schedule provides a tailored approach to caring for pets. With the flexibility to adjust my hours, I can meet their specific needs, including feeding, walks, and playtime. Breaks throughout the day allow for regular check-ins, addressing any emergencies promptly. This personalized care not only reduces stress for pets but also eliminates the need for external pet services. The freedom to be actively involved in their daily lives ensures a comfortable routine, fostering a strong bond and peace of mind for both me and your pets. In caring for pets, I extend my services both within my own home and at clients' residences, ensuring a comprehensive and attentive approach. At my home, I provide a range of services such as bathing, meticulous medication distribution, and regular walks tailored to the specific needs of each pet. I create a comfortable and loving environment, prioritizing their well-being. Additionally, when caring for pets in clients' homes, I extend the same level of dedication. This includes administering medications with precision, offering bathing services for hygiene, and taking dogs for invigorating walks. The goal is to mirror the care and routine they are accustomed to, whether in their familiar home environment or within my own space, ensuring a seamless and positive experience for both the pets and their owners.
About: I have had pets from childhood through adulthood and am happy to be available to help with both cats and dogs. Do not hesitate to reach out, even if same day. I work on call so am available to go at any time morning, day, or night. I am also available most holidays, but those differ. I follow and respect the rules set by the homeowner. I feed the cats/ dogs, as well as take them out or empty the litter boxes.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid—everything from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and Great Danes. I’ve administered medicine, handled special feeding routines, and taken care of elderly animals with extra needs. I’ve also pet-sat for family friends, neighbors, and multiple households over the years. I currently live with cats I care for full-time, and I’m happy to help with additional tasks like watering plants, taking out litter, or feeding fish. I’m great at following specific instructions and keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently between jobs and going back to school in the fall, which means I have full availability all summer long. My schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet-sitting needs—whether that’s regular check-ins, overnights, or last-minute help. I live locally in Mulberry and often help out at my family’s pharmacy, but otherwise my time is yours! I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I always follow the pet’s routine to keep things consistent—mealtimes, walks, medications, and even preferred toys or napping spots. I’m respectful of the client’s space and clear about communication, sending regular updates and checking in if anything seems off. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs—whether that’s quiet time for a nervous cat or extra play for an energetic pup. Trust is everything, and I take that seriously from day one.

I am known to aimlessly walk around the streets of nyc, letting the city call towards different spots it wants me to see, a perfect quality for walking lovely dogs! Now that I have moved to Flordia, I have all of this pent up energy to be around all the amazing flordia dogs that need love and care! I have three family dogs, one older American Eskimo, and two Border Collies under the age of 4, meaning I am still equip and up to date with handling puppies. My baby sister turns 18 in May and is a type 1 diabetic. Through this experience, I want to help find her the perfect diabetic dog to aid in her growth! I used to have a senior dog who passed away from cancer (bless his soul) but in his final stages, we crafted such a lovely last year of his life through love, support and comfort. This meant, taking medications, being fragile and cautious, but above all, find the love in his heart. I can't wait to meet, play and love your furry friends :) I have a very relaxed schedule, so I am easily accommodating and eager to help out! This is a full time job for me, as I have had over 200 clients over the past 8 years, juggling both this Wag! and personal clients. I have a fenced yard and 3 other dogs inside of my own family home! If they want friendship, we can have playtime. If not, I can crate my own if needed for the safety of everyone involved!

About: Working in veterinary medicine, I can understand basic animal needs and care. I have been taking care of animals for over 10 years. I will treat your babies like they are my own I work two jobs, both in opposite directions, so to be able to housesit. And given a good amount of time to request days off to give your baby my full attention I prefer housesitting over boarding at my personal home, it’s easier for me, and I feel like the pets would prefer their own home over anyone elses
About: I have volunteered at animal shelters. I have experience working with “exotic” animals. There was not a moment in my life I did not have a furry or feathered friends. Hi! My name is Dustin, and I’m a dedicated animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including strong breeds like American Bullies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I prioritize safety, patience, and positive reinforcement. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I aim to give you peace of mind while you’re away by providing attentive, reliable, and loving care. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and well-being will always come first with me. I do not board any animals in my home. I know that every animals schedule is different and will follow any special instructions given. I am comfortable taking dogs for walks, car rides (if you are comfortable, of course) and love to play with your fur or feathered babies!

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.
