“We had a great experience with Stephanie! This was our first time using the house visit / dog walking service. Irving got lots of walks and attention during our trip!”
“Madison was amazing! I have a crazy schedule and she was accommodating with a virtual explanation of how to care for my cats and she takes the best pictures! My cat that usually keeps to herself even came around for her!”
“Maria did a great job taking care of my cat. This was my first experience with her petting-sitting service but definitely won't be my last! She was consistent with her visit time, sent regular updates and even vacuumed the floor in the bedroom to clean up the litter! I so appreciated her attention to the details.”
“Ann is amazing! She takes such good care of my pups and always sends updates. My dachshund isn’t great with people and Ann has been so patient with him over the past few weeks. It is greatly appreciated!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs over the years. I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m responsible, attentive, and excited to give your pets the same love and attention I’d want for my own! I have a flexible schedule and will care for your pets anytime during the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings! I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide dependable, loving care when you need it! I provide reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats and will tailor my visits or walks to each pet’s routine. Whether your pup needs exercise and playtime or your cat needs some extra company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m happy to follow your instructions for feeding, treats, medications, and potty breaks. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands!
“I've reviewed Michelle before and all of my previous comments stand. She's amazing. As long as she's willing to come check on our cat... We won't use anyone else.”
“Christine has been amazing! She started helping with my 5 month old puppy recently. Shes always on time, very communicative & sweet, and my little man loves her. She always adjusts to his energy level in the evening during their check in && makes sure he’s okay while I’m at work. She’s helpful in keeping structure and routine in his life! (:”
About: I am an animal lover! I have a dog named piper she's a small little angel and my life hasn't been the same since I've had her. I want people to feel comfortable leaving their furry bundles of love with someone who can love and protect them! I take the dogs I am watching to the dog park at my apartment where they can run and play. Also, if interested I can bathe your dog before he or she comes home. Your dog will have a blast with many toys and walks and naps on the couch! I am a currently not working so I’ll be at home all day with my fur babies and hopefully yours. I have a very flexible schedule I always keep the dogs I am watching on a leash unless it is a fenced backyard. I’m always paying attention and capturing cute moments.
“Bonnie was wonderful! She was incredibly consistent with her visits, and played and loved our puppies like they were her own! she sent us great pics to let us see our girls, as we missed them so much🌴. she also went above and beyond to bring in the mail each day. Bonnie will be our “go to” sitter from now on!”
About: My family has had animals all my life and I always have felt drawn to all kinds of pets and feel like I get what they’re saying without speaking! I love energetic play and having full conversations with them. I’ve taken care of newborn cats and dogs to adult cats and dogs. No specific experiences with senior animals but willing to learn! I work a full time job from 8-5, Mon-Fri. But I am more than happy to spend each evening and morning as well as the weekends with your cute and furry family members! I will give them ample about of social and play time while also following family specific rules for crating or free roam time. I can take them to a dog park and be energetic with them if allowed and can give all animals cuddle time as they deserve!
About: I’ve grown up my whole life with dogs (and the occasional cat). My best friend is my dog, Kermit, that I’ve raised and been with me for 13 years (and God willing much more to go). I decided to join Rover because I personally struggled with finding trustworthy & consistent care for my baby. I wanted to be able to provide that care for someone else, to know there is a safe and attentive caregiver for your precious family. I live in Dublin and enjoy a neighborhood with plenty of walking trails and many dogs. My dog is dog friendly and used to dog visitors, either via daycare or watching friends/families fur babies. I am happy to host at my place and do drop ins. Walks are possible beyond work hours (after 4:30 weekdays). If being asked for staying at your house, I would need to be able to bring my dog. I will respect and honor your rules and bring love and attention to each baby. I work at home which affords me at home flexibility. Ideally looking to keep drop in before 8:30 pm. I am happy to host at my place (which would have my super sweet and friendly dog-loving 13-yr old dog) and do drop ins. If being asked for staying overnight at your house, I would need to be able to bring my dog also. I have a nice spacious yard without fence. With my dog, I usually take walks or I have a dog walk leash in backyard. My house is open range for dogs, but I also have a crate if crate-trained. I will follow all care instructions, not only for fur baby, but for house too.
“Carolyne, It was a very trying week for you with the winter storm, our unplowed driveway and the door lock problem. Thank you for taking it all in stride and giving excellent care to Jynxie, Boo and Van. I really appreciate all you do and the loving care you provide. Thank you, Donna”
“Sydnee was amazing with our two boys!! We received photos everyday and updates to make sure everything was okay. There were lots of play times and she always made sure they had enough food. We felt very comfortable with her in our home and we will be messaging her next time we need someone over :)”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jerome
Mariana is awesome! She did two drop in’s with Serena and I could tell Serena was very happy spending time with her. The pics Mariana sent showed my girl relaxing with her or hamming it up, which tells me Serena was feeling 100% comfortable. Mariana was great about arriving on time and also good at communicating and letting me know what was happening.

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.
