“Amina was great with our three cats! She followed the feeding and litter instructions we had for her, had quick communication, and even went above and beyond by bringing in our packages from the front door. She is now my go-to anytime we go out of town! Thanks for all your help, Amina!”

About: My moms co-founded a national dog rescue, so I have experience with full time care for 10 week old puppies to senior dogs, I have also dog sat for years prior! I am currently a full time college student, on the dance team, and work part time! Weekends are completely open! I have many breaks throughout my weekdays and am very flexible!

About: I love dogs and have had dogs my whole life. I have been trusted by friends, family, and coworkers to take care of their dogs whether that be walking, bathing, or just simply staying with them! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I only work four days a week starting at 5 pm! I can crate your dog if needed or I can provide loves of snuggles if they don’t use one! I don’t have any other dogs in my home so they wouldn’t have issues with any other animals.
“Maegan is the first person to lay eyes on my black cat, Pablo, which must mean she’s magic. So happy all the critters had someone lovely to check in on them, and big extra thanks for taking in my packages that showed up early!”
About: I have worked in an animal shelter for two years, caring for animals of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes animal handling, fostering, neonatal and kitten care, behavior observation, and general animal care. Through my shelter and fostering work, I have gained knowledge of common animal health concerns, medication administration, and monitoring pets for signs of illness or discomfort. I am passionate about providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care to help every pet feel comfortable and loved while their families are away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting on most weekdays and weekends. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs through both fostering and animal shelter work. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise routines, and any special requests. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!
About: I have always loved pets. Throughout my entire life, I have had both cats and dogs, and recently my family adopted a gecko from my stepsister. Pets have always been the center of my day, and I always look forward to seeing my little fur-babies, and taking care of them. With this I have been referred to many family friends to extend the love and care I have for my babies onto their babies. I will always take care of your fur-babies as I would my own. I also am very good at giving pets medicine, as I have done it for a few years now. I am a full time college student at UNI, and I love taking care of animals. Being away at college has made me miss my own animals, so I fill that gap by getting to take care and love other animals, and give other families peace of mind while away. I am super open to any environments, whether it be a fenced in yard, or a yard where I will need to leash the pups/kitties up to take them out. I will listen and obey any instructions the client may give, whether it be for respecting the pets, or respecting the house.
About: I have had dogs in my household since I was around the age of 5. I love caring for dogs in my hometown and would love to take care of yours while I am in college. I have done drop-in visits with many families around Carroll, IA. I have also done many overnight stays with pups in which I am willing to get up with them throughout the night for any needs they may have. I can work with any age of puppy ranging from puppy-senior dogs. I’m currently a student at Hawkeye Community College! My schedule can be a big crazy between school, work and dance but I would love to work something out! In my home we have a full fenced in yard and baby gates to keep our dogs from roaming wherever. I am willing to work with any circumstances whether it be standing outside with the dog and watching them or holding them on a leash to ensure their safety and mine.
“Easily the best sitter I've had from this app. She communicates well, goes above and beyond, sends so many photos, and is a lovely human. I've booked with three pet sitters in total on Rover and she shines above the rest. I can tell she genuinely enjoys this job and cares about my pets well-being. I'm usually so anxious leaving my cats for long periods of time, but not at all with Maegan. I don't think words can properly express how wonderful she is!”

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.

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 .

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.
