“Theresa has been amazing! My pup is pretty energetic but easy to take care of & she handles him amazingly. I love that she spends the full 30 minutes walking him as I am working so I know he’s not missing out! I am very happy to trust her with my fur baby! And will be booking again!”

About: I have spent my whole life caring for animals! As a toddler and young child, I would chase dog walkers down the sidewalk calling out, “excuse me, can I pet your dog?” Animals seem to sense my love for them, as they tend to be especially friendly and calm around me. I’ve seen this as a horseback rider and barn volunteer, regular pet sitter for dogs and cats of all breeds and ages, and as the “favorite human” of many dogs in my life! I would love the opportunity to help your animals experience peace, safety, and fun while we’re together. My schedule is very flexible. I currently am taking a gap year from college and have free hours available to care for your pets. I have access to my own car to come to you. I am willing to come to your home, meet you and your pets, and take care of them, including feedings, walks, play, exercise, companionship, and other caring needs.
“Rita has been absolutely amazing with my pup Juno! She went above and beyond to make sure Juno was well taken care of. Juno has a lot of anxiety and sometimes becomes reactive when she gets nervous. Rita worked with Juno through positive reinforcement to decrease her anxiety and make Juno feel comfortable. I would 100% recommend Tita to any dog parent!”
About: Home Environment I live in a spacious house featuring a securely fenced back yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and relax. My Chihuahua, who is notably sociable and friendly, enjoys interacting with other dogs, cats, and people alike. Resident Pets In addition to my Chihuahua, I share my home with two cats that I rescued from the local animal shelter. Both cats are well-adjusted and accustomed to living with dogs. Typically, after a brief introduction consisting of a few sniffs and perhaps a hiss, they are able to coexist peacefully with other cats. Experience and Availability Since retiring from the Army, I am available around the clock to care for your beloved pet. With more than 26 years of experience in owning and caring for both dogs and cats, I am well-versed in understanding and meeting their unique needs. Commitment to Care I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own, ensuring its safety, comfort, and happiness. Every animal entrusted to me is treated as an extended and respected member of my household. I am a retired Army veteran and parent of a Chihuahua and 2 cats. I am available around the clock to take care of your fur baby as a respected member of my household. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly Chihuahua to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My cats ignore dogs that don't want to play. If your dog dislikes cats, I am able to separate their living areas while your dog is on-site.
“Alexis was absolutely amazing! My trip was scheduled with incredibly short notice. Alexis made time to come for a meet and greet prior to my trip and I was able to show her everything as well as give her insight about my cat. During the week it gave me such peace of mind to know Alexis was checking in on my baby! I will 100% be using her again the next time I need a cat sitter.”
About: I’ve pet sat for my family for years, walking, spending the night with them, feeding them. I have done it all. I have pet sat, dogs, cats, ferrets, lizards. I currently have a lot of open availability , which means I’ll have a lot of time to put pet care into my routine. I am free anytime Wednesday and Thursday and throughout the weekend. I care for pets very well, whether it’s in the clients home or out on a walk. I’m very attentive to what animals need by giving my full attention to them.
About: My entire life pretty much I've grown up around animals! I've had different rodent, and currently have 2 cats. The last 10ish years my family and I have cat/dog sat for multiple family members and friends. The last year I've cat sat for my neighbor multiple times. As far as regular work goes, I'm only doing part-time due to the limit on how many hours are being given. I'm also not enrolled in school, so my schedule has more than enough time to fit in some extra pet care. I have experience with giving medication (mostly pills), so if your fur baby has meds that are needed to be given, I'm more than willing. Like a lot of animals, I enjoy basking in the sun. So, taking your animals on long walks isn't an issue either. Your animals needs are my priority.
“Aurora, was willing to come the night before and meet our pups. They loved her the minute she got here. She did a 30 min drop in visit while at the rv show. She walked them, gave them water and played with them. This is our 1st time with Rover and with Aurora. Everything was great from start to finish! Aurora did a fantastic job and we couldn't be happier! Pups were happy and very content when we got back.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for 30+ years and take the time to learn each dog’s personality in order to provide a comfortable loving experience. I departed “Corporate America “ to love on dogs full time! We also have a dog park behind our home so your dog would get great exercise and socialization. I’m home all day as the dogs are my passion so they will always have love and feel at home while they are with me. I offer dog walks, doggie daycare and boarding seven days a week! I provide an “at home” setting for dogs so they feel the individual love and attention they deserve.

About: I have helped raise pets with my family for most of my life, taking on more responsibility as I got older. I have helped family members take care of their dogs when they are away, taking them on walks and making sure they are fed on their regular schedule. I make sure that they get enough exercise to be tired out, but not exhausted. My family mostly had cats, and I have learned to interact with them on their terms, following their lead for the toys they want to play with, the treats they like, when they are fed, and how much and when they would like affection. While my availability is limited to after typical work hours on weekdays, due to my regular job, I have almost full availability on Saturday and am available Sunday afternoon. Please note that I cannot use my phone from 7:40 to 3 on weekdays, except from 11:00 - 11:44 and 12:40 - 1:20. I will get back to you as promptly as possible. I make sure that my cat is fed daily, monitoring her feeder and water fountain to make sure they are full and clean. Kitty litter is emptied once per week and scooped about every other day, since she has 2 boxes. The doors are always closed in my house and I would make sure they are closed in my client's house as well. When watching amily dogs, they are never off-leash unless it is in an enclosed area. Occasionally in my house, I have the interior door open, but the screen door closed, so my cat can experience the outside safely. I make sure any string based toys or any choking hazards are up out of the way, so my cat and client's pets can't get tangled up in them.

About: I’m one of the only people that could take care of my one friends dog because it was very mean. I stay at peoples house to watch their pets or just stop in throughout the day. I currently work full time, I go before work and then after work. If I’m not staying the night I go again before bed time. If I’m staying I go after work and then either get dinner or make dinner then stay for the night. When I’m taking care of others pets I do as if they are my own. I make sure they are happy, healthy, eating, drinking and doing their business. If something seems off I will inform the client to make sure it is normal for them. I want the clients to feel comfortable and sure their pets are being cared for while they are away.
“Karen is awesome! The dogs responded really well to her. It was a hot day but she made sure they got enough outside time and gave them lots of pets and treats inside. She sent me updates and made sure everything was done just right before heading out. I'd definitely book with Karen again.”

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 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 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.
