“We’re so grateful to Alexis for taking such wonderful care of Levi while we were away. As an older dog, he needs a bit of extra patience and understanding, and she provided exactly that. If you’re searching for someone trustworthy to look after your pet, she’s the one. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Madison, and caring for animals has always been one of my favorite things. I’ve had dogs throughout my life and have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, play with, walk, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I know every dog is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love and attention. One thing that makes me a little different is that I love photography! I enjoy capturing sweet moments with the pets I care for, so you can expect plenty of updates and adorable photos while you’re away. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I’ll always communicate clearly, arrive on time, and make sure your pet receives the love, attention, exercise, and routine they’re used to. If you have specific scheduling needs, I’m happy to discuss them and do my best to accommodate! I know every pet has their own routine, preferences, and personality, so I take the time to follow your instructions carefully and provide care that’s tailored to them! I’ll always treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I will clean up any messes that your pet may make (accidents happen!) If you’re away for a while, I can bring in any mail and packages for you as well. While I cannot currently care for pets in my home, I hope to in the future!
“Desiree did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away for a work trip, and made sure that he was well fed and played with. She was very communicative and sent lots of great pictures! I would be happy to have her as a sitter again in the future. 😺”
About: As a pet owner, I understand how nerve wracking it is to leave your baby with someone you barely know but I assure you, your babies will be PAMPERED. I have grown up with animals all my life (dogs, cats, lizards, fish). I also have worked at my hometown zoo for 4 years where I gained animal handling experience and zookeeping experience. With that, I am very comfortable with medicine administration and handling anxious animals. I am currently a graduate student and only have 1 three hour class a day so I will not be gone very long! Thursday, Saturdays, and Sundays I am completely free! I cannot host pets in my own home and usually stay over night for however long is needed. I am comfortable with crating, medicine administration, and any special diets your baby may need!
“Alex did drop-in visits at our home while my husband and I were away on our trip. He was always on time and spent ample time and attention to our dog Peaches for all 30 visits we had him. He also did a great job of communicating throughout. Peaches really loved him! I would highly recommend Alex and will definitely request him for our next trip!”
“Olivia was amazing with my babies while I was out of town for a few days and made me feel at ease during a time that I would’ve been extremely worried and stressed. Would definitely recommend her services to know that your loved ones are safe and secure when you can’t be there.”
“Jessica took great care of our kitties! She made sure the kitties had clean litterboxes and fresh water after every visit. She also spent time playing and cuddling with them!”

I am looking forward to sharing my time and helping out with your fur baby! Have a blessed day!

About: I’ve had 10+ years of dog experience. I was introduced to big breed dogs at the age of 5 and have been in love with them since. I have experience in caring for dogs and corrective behavior. My Availability schedule is very flexible. I make 30 minute house calls at your convenience and I will do up to 3 days of overnight sitting in your home. I think that it is very important to keep pets in their own familiar environment, therefore, I take suggestions from owners about their dog’s favorite hobbies and parks.
About: Hiya. I have a clean empty apartment ready to be nested by a furry friend and I’m great with both dogs and cats(owned both). I have no pets now and I only work 7 days every two weeks so I'm ready to hustle! I typically only work 7 days every 2 weeks so I’m home pretty frequently. I am happy to easily accommodate my schedule around your pets needs. I’m a US soldier that you can trust. Integrity is one of our core values. I am drug free, 29, and I treat animals with love not hate.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have cared for pets as well. My household loves dogs so there will be nothing but love during boarding. I am a caretaker currently and have flexible availability to walk and care for your pets. I am able to attentively walk and care for pets. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly small dog to play with your precious pup. Safety and love are the top priority for me!
About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone. I am able to work remotely so care during the day is no issue. I live in an apartment in Meraux above my dad’s office, so while there’s no yard, we have plenty of space to get outside for walks. There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.
About: I’ve taken care of so many dogs since I was younger, so many have relied on me, and trusted me with their dogs and having to deal with walks, feedings, medications (mostly oral meds). I have such a huge passion for dog care and love spending time with so many fur babies at my previous job at a doggy daycare. I have about 3 years and 8 months of hands on experience in the dog field. Reading body language, training and much more.I treat everyone’s furry babies as if they were my own. I have recently relocated into a new state and so everything is new for me here! But I’m happy to meet all these new furry friends and show all the care I have for each. I’m currently unemployed so my schedule is pretty open. I’m here whenever you need me! Is basically my motto as of right now! I’m here to care. I have two fur babies of my own one being a 4 year old lab retriever mix he is very socialized and can keep your fur baby or babies company if they are well enough with other dogs. Can always bring him on walks with us or to come and visit and play or stay with. I also provide adventures. But with my services I can provide in home care, overnight care and or drop ins. And as said walks! Whatever you need I will go above and beyond to make sure everything you need is done!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Houma stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
