“Alessandra was great. It was my first time trusting a stranger with my dogs AND to enter my home while I was away--both things that made me very nervous. However, the meet and greet made me feel very comfortable with Alessandra. Her concern for my dogs' safety and well-being felt 100% genuine, and put me at ease instantly. The dogs seemed to sense the good-person vibes too :)”

About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands on experience caring for friends’ and family dogs, as well as my own, using positive reinforcement at home. On walks, I focus on gentle, calm structure, making sure gear fits comfortably, reinforcing polite leash manners, and (if you’d like) practicing simple cues like “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it.” I’m patient with excited dogs and extra gentle with nervous pups, always prioritizing safety and giving plenty of space from other dogs and people when needed. Dogs who need extra space on leash are welcome, I’m comfortable with mild–moderate reactivity and I work at the dog’s comfort level using distance, calm handling, and positive reinforcement. You’ll get photo updates + a quick walk recap each visit, and meet & greets are always welcome. I’m available for dog walks Monday through Saturday, with flexible time blocks from morning to evening (6am–10pm). Sundays are my off day. I’m happy to work with one-time walks, weekly routines, and recurring midday potty breaks—whatever keeps your pup happiest and most consistent. Safety comes first on every walk. I double-check harness/collar fit, use secure leash handling, and stay alert to surroundings. I avoid on-leash greetings unless you request them, give dogs space from triggers, and keep walks calm and positive. I’ll follow your routine closely and send photo updates each visit.

About: I've taken care of dogs, since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. In my family we have all ways had 2 small dogs, and now I have my current dog of 5 years, love him so much like my baby, sleeps and cuddles with me all the time. I'm currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to play/walk with your pups! I'm available for dog walking, while my son is in school and in the afternoon. Open availability on the weekends. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.

“Teresa is a very thorough sitter. We use her to do drop-ins for our cats when we are gone for extended periods of time. She will check and make sure the cats get some attention and sends lots of pictures of them with each check in. She also makes sure the cats have water, food, and clean litter boxes. I would definitely recommend her for animal check ins.”

About: Hi, I grew up in a pet household and have 10+ years caring for multiple dogs and cats. I have some experience administering medicine as well. I telework Wednesday- Friday and have most weekends available to walk or drop-in with your pet! I am available after 4:30pm on the weekdays and open on the weekends. If you’re close enough to me I could even drop in during the day on a weekday. I would treat your pets the same way I treat my own, like family. I understand the potential stress that can come when your pet meets someone new and am ready to make the effort to gain their trust.

About: I've taken care of dogs for 3 weeks at a time. I've trained dogs basic skills like sit, down, roll over, turn around, leave it, and sit and stay. I've had many dogs of my own and 2 cats I'm available to watch animals before and after work and I can also attend to them in between 12 and 1 on my lunch break. I work from 8:00 to 5:00. I'm early riser. I Love to keep them happy while their owners are away. When I'm caring for animals, I spend time with them I make sure they're well fed and have plenty of water. What makes me happy is having your baby happy while you are away. I love taking them for walks or even going to the park. I do like cuddling. I have no problem with your fur baby sleeping with me at night.

About: My name is Zoe, I’m a Delta College student who original went in with Business as my major, to now Paralegal Studies to then hopefully next nursing. Though it’s always been my dream to start my own boarding company in the future! I’ve worked with animals for 3 years plus, non profit organizations within shelters or adoption events within volunteer work, along with working at a pet store a couple years at Carter’s Pet Mart. Since working their I’ve built my own clientele with house sitting birds previously sold from us, or dogs that come in regularly for nail trims for me! As a child i’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, which has grown into the person I am today! I would love to meet yours furry friends! Pet care fits into my weekly routine as I house sit on a regular basis for plenty of people birds and dogs. I am a college student looking to make extra money outside of my regular job at a Law Office to make extra cash for college expenses and saving up for my own future as I am an independent student. I prefer to house sit, as it works into my schedule well, and makes potty breaks and etc, a lot more simpler and happier for your furry ones! During my work days I stop by multiple times a day to do potty breaks, and give them some love for a moment. On my days off i enjoy to walk the dogs or play with the birds by giving enrichment. As a college student and worker, I find the time throughout my day if working or having class to stop by throughout the day to do multiple potty breaks. Some prefer for me to stay at their home with their animals, and some just prefer for me to stop by and hang out with them as well as feed and water, and clean any business that had been done. Either way I am willing to do so! Though I do prefer to watch pets in the clients home.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, from my own pets to those of friends, family, and neighbors. I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors. In my professional life, I work in a specialized education setting where patience, consistency, and reading behavior are essential skills. That experience has made me calm under pressure and attentive to individual needs, qualities that carry over naturally into pet care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that every pet is different, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one happiest. My goal is simple: to provide the kind of care that lets you leave home with complete peace of mind. My schedule is flexible and I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended care with advance notice. I do my best to keep a consistent routine for each pet, so they know what to expect and feel comfortable while you're away. If you have specific timing needs, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I take safety seriously and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. I follow instructions carefully and keep routines consistent so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m in your home or out on a walk, I’m focused on keeping things calm, safe, and stress-free for your pet.

About: I've taken care of many pets over the years, most of my life from my own pets to family,friends and neighbors pets. Feeding, Walking, Playing to just hanging out with them and giving them love and comfort. I've taken care of pets that needed special care such as administering medicine, feeding on set schedule for specific dietary needs and giving extra care to those pets who get extreme separation anxiety. I'm currently looking for a Full-time or Part-time recurring gig to those who may travel often for business or pleasure and last minute emergency trips. Drop in visits, Dog Walking and House sitting I am free most days/nights Monday through Sunday. I'm flexible. I will need to care for your pets in your home as I cannot currently offer services out of my apartment. I'm hoping in the near future to move into a bigger space so that I may be able to then offer more services such as overnight care/boarding and day care.

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.

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 use the 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.
