“We have used Marleigh C. Twice now and I have absolutely loved her each time. She is so caring towards our animals and loves to keep us in the loop with them the whole time she’s there. I’d refer her to anyone looking for a dog care/sitter.”

About: I’ve been the owner of various pets including bunnies, dogs, birds, cats and more for 20 years and have volunteered for about 8 years at a humane society walking, socializing, and caring for dogs and cats of numerous breeds, sizes, and ages. As a dog mom I have found great areas for walking nearby & have a dog park area close by that is securely gated and spacious (as well as empty quite often) We’d love to have your special friend with us for a few days! I work from home & have the ability to take breaks as needed! I have a routine set with my own dog & would be able to adjust to the needs of your pet. I have a backyard with a lead & a walking path nearby. As a seasoned pet sitter I am comfortable caring for your pets in your home should they feel more secure in a known environment!

About: I’ve been an animal lover and dog owner my entire life. For the past 13 years, my sweet Riley was my constant companion and best friend. I lost her in November, and while I’m not quite ready for another pet of my own, I have plenty of love and attention to give to yours. My three adult children all have dogs, so I’m also a proud “grand-doggie” mom! I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ll care for your pets the way I would want someone to have cared for Riley—with love, patience, and lots of attention. They’re not just pets; they’re family. I am currently available anytime. I work from home with my own coaching business and on occasion I help my mom with her doctors appointments. I live on a walking path and enjoy walking every day. I have been a dog owner for over 35 years and very careful and aware of my surroundings.

“I would highly recommend Ashlyn to anyone needing a pet sitter! Our cat, Mocha, is very shy and doesn't always warm up to new people quickly, but Ashlyn had her coaxed out on the first drop in and spent plenty of time playing with her and giving her tons of love. We were able to relax on vacation knowing Mocha was so well taken care of and we will definitely reach out to Ashlyn again for our next trip away!”

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and love getting to know each pet’s individual personality. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments. I understand that some pets need extra time to warm up, while others are ready to play right away, and I always follow their lead. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I own a small all natural skincare business and pet care fits right into my schedule. Good things it’s something I love to go do! I care for every pet based on their normal routine, personality, and comfort level. During walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and letting your dog enjoy their time at their own pace. For sitting and in-home stays, I follow feeding, potty, medication, and household instructions closely, keep their environment clean and secure, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I also provide regular updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I grew up around furry friends and adore them. At the family house we dog sit all the time. I am honored with any amount of time I get to spend with animals! I am looking to do this full time. I have a mostly empty schedule and I am available almost all around the clock at almost all times. Your furry friends are safe with me. They will be treated like family (because they are) and will be treated with the upmost respect because that is what they deserve.

“This is the second time Kyla has watched my fur babies and she is the best! She agreed to watch them on super short notice, she got to the check-ins on time, she was very communicative, she took the most amazing photos of my pets (seriously, she should be an animal photographer) where my pets look very happy and content, and she is very easy and fun to work with. As a bonus, she also cleaned our cats' litter boxes while she was there (even though she totally didn't need to because were only gone for a few days). All in all, highly recommend!! ☺️”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and other animals since I was about 15 years old. I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I also have experience working as a beginner-level dog groomer, which gave me even more hands-on experience with dogs and their individual needs. I eventually left grooming to pursue my career as a CNA, but my love for animals has never gone away. I’m patient, responsible, and caring, and I would love the opportunity to treat your pets like they’re my own! My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care\. I understand that every owner has different schedules and needs, and I’m willing to work around those schedules whenever possible\. My flexibility makes me a great fit because I can provide consistent, dependable care without rushing or leaving pets alone for long periods of time\. I’m happy to give each animal the attention, love, exercise, and care they deserve while their owners are away\. want every pet and pet owner to feel comfortable and confident when choosing me for their pet’s care. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, so I treat every animal with patience, attention, and the same love and care I would want for my own.

“>>> AMAZING SERVICE!… Elizabeth visited and attended to my dog, Blitz, who is very energetic. She made several visits over five days, taking walks, throwing tennis balls and sending me photos, which I REALLY enjoyed. I certainly recommend her to tend to any anyone’s pet. She even made a special trip upon request to tend to a situation with Blitz’s bedding… Amazing Service! Thank You, Elizabeth.”

Margie did a fantastic job watching my dog. Only having a days notice was still able to come do a previsit on Friday before watching him on Saturday. From the pictures, my dog warmed up immediately and made a new friend. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

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.

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

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 .

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.
