“Gianna was an amazing sitter for our cat Eli while we took a short trip out of town. Always arrived promptly at the times to feed and take care of Eli and from the looks of the pictures, he got Cody with her very quickly!! We will definitely be using her services again.”

“It was our first time having Haley watch our Gigi. She did a handful of drop in visits over 2 days. She was timely, patient, and kept us updated throughout. Gigi was very comfortable around her and warmed up to her. Haley was flexible and took really good care of our dog. We plan to have her babysit Gigi again in the future.”

She also met me in advance of the sit to meet my cat. Kelli is a great communicator and a positive person. I will have Kelli sit for our cat again.”

About: What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like family. I’m patient, attentive, and take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, energetic dogs, nervous pups, and seniors who need extra patience and attention. I also enjoy reinforcing basic manners and leash training through positive, consistent guidance. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I currently work at a doggy daycare, where I spend my workdays caring for and interacting with dogs. I work 4 days a week and have 3 days off, giving me plenty of flexibility to provide walks, drop-ins, daycare-style playtime, and overnight care on my days off. I love staying active and spending my free time with dogs, so pet care is something I genuinely enjoy! I care for every pet based on their individual routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe by keeping their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and potty schedules. I’m happy to provide lots of attention, exercise, cuddles, and positive reinforcement. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they always know how their pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel right at home while you’re away!

About: I’m new to Rover but I, like so many others on here love animals! I have 2 dogs, an 8 year old tiny yet mighty Chihuahua and a 3 year old energetic and loving Border Collie. These two crazy boys have helped me learn that no two dogs are the same but a few things that they do have in common is their need for patient, loving, and understanding care takers. Dogs are the main animals that I’ve had the opportunity to care for, from chihuahuas to German shepherds but I’ve also had some clients with fish and turtles that needed boarding as well. I currently work at my administrative job 3 times a week and I’m looking for a fun way to spend my off days! My schedule is very flexible and I’m open to working around your pets routine! Most of my pet-sitting services take place in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable in the environment they know and love. My goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible while providing them with plenty of love, attention, and personalized care. I also provide regular walks and engaging outdoor activities to keep them physically active and mentally stimulated. Every pet is treated as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

“Olivia was just wonderful! My kitty immediately liked her. She was very kind and gentle with my cat, she was really responsible and managed the complicated medications perfectly. After two weeks away, my kitty was happy, healthy, and seems to be doing great. Olivia sent us photos from every visit and made sure to spend time petting and brushing our kitty and letting her roam out on the patio. I definitely recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with the same love and attention that you do :-))”

“Rusty did a terrific job with a drop-in visit I recently booked. Rusty took the time to get to know the dogs and the lay of the land with a meet and greet several days prior to the actual drop-in, which I appreciated. One of my dogs is an incredibly energetic dachshund puppy and the other is a senior dachshund with some trust issues. Rusty was incredibly knowledgable with how to handle both and I felt at ease with Rusty as my choice. I especially appreciate how communicative Rusty was throughout the process and they even sent me some cute pictures of my dogs during the visit. Thanks, Rusty!”

About: 🐾Why I love pet sitting I love that pet sitting allows me to combine companionship, responsibility, and a slower, more present way of living. Every animal has their own routine and personality, and I enjoy learning what makes each one feel comfortable and happy. Whether that means going for a walk, spending quiet time together, playing, or simply keeping them company, I want the animals in my care to feel at home and well loved. I also understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else. My goal is to provide dependable care while respecting the routines and instructions that each pet parent has established. ✨About me I have worked for myself off and on since 2015, with a background in fashion design and printmaking. My creative work has always given me an appreciation for detail, patience, and working independently. In my 20s, I lived in a meditation community, where I practiced daily yoga and developed a deeper appreciation for mindfulness, simplicity, and being present. I eventually found my way into pet sitting in 2022 while living in Phoenix. Since then, caring for animals has become a very meaningful part of my life. I have since moved back to California and now dedicate most of my time to caring for animals. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. My pet care & house-sitting routine When I house sit, I like to keep your pets’ normal routine as consistent as possible. My days typically include: * 🐾 Morning: Feedings, fresh water, potty break, and a morning walk or outdoor time. * 🐾 Throughout the day: Potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. * 🐾 Evening: Dinner, another walk or outdoor time, and settling into their usual nighttime routine. * 🐾 House care: Bring in the mail and packages, water plants as needed, take out trash, and keep the home clean and tidy. * 🐾 Updates: I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know how everyone is doing while you’re away. I’m flexible and always happy to follow your pets’ specific routines, needs, and preferences. When I stay in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. My priority is keeping your pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they receive their meals on schedule, fresh water, regular potty breaks, walks, play and enrichment, and plenty of affection and companionship. I pay attention to their individual personalities and needs, whether they want lots of activity and attention or prefer a quieter, more relaxed day. I do leave the house periodically for my own errands, walks, or activities, but I make sure your pets receive dedicated one-on-one time throughout the day and aren’t simply left alone for long periods. While I’m there, I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail and packages, take out trash, and take care of any agreed-upon household tasks. I’m respectful of your space and routines, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pets—and your home—are being well cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Greg — a lifelong dog owner and animal lover based on the east side of Napa in a quiet, country setting. I live on a fully fenced, one-acre property that offers a safe, relaxed environment where dogs can enjoy space, comfort, and freedom. One thing that’s important to me — and often reassuring to pet parents — is that dogs in my care have free flow between indoors and outdoors. My home is 100% dog-friendly, and dogs are never restricted to being outside or confined indoors. I have a large dog door, and dogs are free to move in and out as they choose. I am always present when dogs are here, ensuring they are supervised, comfortable, and able to follow their normal routines. I offer a wide range of flexible services, including dog walking, daytime care, overnight stays in my home, transportation to appointments, dog park visits, and longer outings such as hikes. I understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels, and I tailor care accordingly — whether that means active exercise, social time, or calm companionship. I’ve owned and cared for both small and large dogs my entire life and have regularly helped friends and family with walking, overnight care, and extended stays over the years. I’m comfortable administering prescription medications and following detailed care instructions when needed. At home, your dog will be in good company. I have two friendly, well-socialized dogs who are fully vaccinated and receive regular care at Silverado Veterinary Hospital. They are accustomed to interacting with other dogs and people, and dogs can join us for social outings or enjoy individual care depending on temperament and your preference. I also understand the trust involved in leaving your dog with someone else — I’ve used Rover myself when traveling and know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. My goal is to provide a calm, attentive, and dependable experience where both dogs and their people feel at ease. If you’re looking for flexible care, open communication, and a home environment where dogs can truly feel at home, I’d be happy to connect and see if I’m a good fit for you and your dog. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I am currently available full-time and able to structure my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m transitioning from a long-term professional career in project management, which means I bring a high level of reliability, organization, and follow-through to pet care. I’m home throughout the day, available for walks, playtime, feedings, and supervision, and I can accommodate daytime, evening, overnight, and extended care with consistency and flexibility I provide a safe, structured, and supervised environment for every dog in my care. My one-acre property is fully fenced and secure, and dogs have supervised access to both indoor and outdoor spaces through a large dog door. I am present while dogs are here and do not leave them unattended for extended periods. My home is fully pet-friendly, clean, and free of hazards. I introduce dogs gradually to ensure comfort and compatibility, and I can separate dogs if needed. I am comfortable administering medications and carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care instructions provided by owners. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain routines exactly as instructed, and provide clear communication and updates.

“Logan's drop-in visits with our seniorly cat were just the ticket. We got a long weekend out of town and Mello was well cared for. He got his meds, food, clean up, plus play time and brushing. Adorable photos, too. This was preceded by a thoroughly enjoyable meet and greet. We'll certainly have Logan as our pet sitter again.”

About: I love bathing and grooming animals. I want to build my experience in the professional field so that way I am able to learn how to be the best dog groomer and the best dog bather you’ll ever know. I take pride and passion and taking care of my dogs as I am training them to become the best family dog and the most behaved, keeping your pets, healthy and occupied will help boost my career and help me get towards my goal into the animal industry I currently am searching for a part-time job and as of April, I am not available on Sundays and Mondays, but other than that, I’m able to do whatever is needed I’m able to have pups at my house as long as they are friendly as I have a dog of my own who loves other dogs and we have two cats and a bunny. I’m willing to do overnight visits and I am willing to go make your dogs and I’m willing to clip nails and brush teeth and I can even do some basic training If I was kept if your dog, I typically would take them to a dog park and I would bring a water bottle for themselves a water bottle for me a water bowl for them and a nice bag of treats to reward good behavior and training. I have a gate and some puppy pads if I’m taking care of a puppy that could not touch the ground however I prefer to not have any pets at my house if avoidable

About: I have over 20 years of experience owning and caring for friend’s dogs and cats. I have cared for senior animals and ones with medical needs as well. I work fully remote, so lots of attention and activity are on the board! We go on a couple walks a day and there is a dog social in my neighborhood if you are amenable to that. I have a dog and cat at home and they are used to other animals in their space and share it well. I follow detailed instructions well.

I’m available most weekends for walks or visits, and I’m happy to communicate with you about the ideal timing that suits your and your pup’s needs. I will come to your home to spend time with your pup for play, feeding, and attention; or go for short or long walks. I would love to meet you and your furry friend in advance!

I love taking care of pets outside of my part time job. I have a 3 year old Aussie mix who is great with other animals and loves making new friends. I have an enclosed area for pets to run and go to the bathroom. I will take them on multiple walks throughout my service if the owner would like.

We had a very good experience with Kelly, she listened to what’s important to us and we felt like she communicated really well. We received a lot of feedback on how our cats were doing, interacting and behavior information. Kelly also sent a lot of photos which always helps when we’re away. We had a couple of issues with our automated litter machine and Kelly was able to resolve the issue and communicated with us to make sure everything was working properly.

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.
