“Jordan was very attentive and showed real compassion for our pets. They really shined with the challenge that our four legged ones can present. Would recommend them to anyone.”

About: I love dogs and am looking to spend my free time playing with wonderful pups. Dogs are the joy of my life:). I believe that pups can teach me a lot about the simple pleasures in life. I am always spoiling pups that I meet with love and attentions that fulfills me and is appreciated by the pups themselves. I enjoy taking time out of my day to make pups feel loved, well-cared-for, and happy. I share a Shiba Inu with my friend Honza who I love more than anything. He has taught me how to be patient and kind when teaching dogs to interact positively with their surroundings. I look forward to encountering as many breeds as possible in my life so that I can understand more about what makes each dog different.
“Wonderful, amazing, reliable pet care! Was recommended by another client and we could not be happier with the services provided. Even with a couple small, unanticipated hiccups everything went smoothly and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of while we were gone. Extremely responsive, excellent communication throughout the scheduled visits and we knew our animals were being well cared for, which is huge! Highly recommend and would not hesitate to used again. If I could give 100 stars, I absolutely would!”

I currently am working part-time so I'll be more open to drop-ins and walks. I work retail though so my schedule isn't set but I am willing to try and work with you. I will give them lots of love and attention, activity, and I will make sure your pets are treated like my own; loved, safe, and fed.

“Lindsay agreed to meet Maicie and I the same day I booked the service (which was the same day as the service)! I needed her to walk Maicie at night at the last minute and she came through. She sent pictures and texted updates which was a relief for me. I will definitely be booking with Lindsay again!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - John Sam Lake
We’re so grateful we found Linda for Chance’s first drop-in visit and meet-and-greet. Chance gets very nervous when greeting new people—his anxiety can kick in the moment he meets a stranger. But with the right approach, treats, and a calm energy, he can learn to relax and trust someone. Within the first minute of meeting Linda, we knew she was the right person for him. We were truly impressed by her knowledge, professionalism, and especially the calm, comforting energy she brought. It took only about 10 seconds for Chance to take treats from her hand (our jaws dropped!), and he trusted her almost instantly. That meant so much to us. After Linda left, Chance was so sad—he was literally crying. ❤️ That told us everything we needed to know about how comfortable and connected he felt with her. We’re so happy we met Linda, and we can’t wait for the day Chance gets to stay with her for boarding in the future. We feel very comfortable knowing he’ll be in such caring and kind hands. We highly recommend Linda!

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.
