“Kim has watched my cat several times now and she does a great job every time! Her check-ins are very thorough and she includes several pictures! She’s even brought my packages inside while I’m away!”
“Micheal was so accommodating to my doggie's needs. He even came for two meet and greets since one of my dog is quite timid and needs a lot of familiarity before trusting someone. It is obvious he loves animals and i felt more than comfortable letting him care for mine!”
“Great job Sabrina! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my girl. It allowed me to relax and enjoy my weekend away to visit my son, daughter -in-law and little grandson. I will definitely book you again in the near future.”
“She did a wonderful job watching my cats! She was reliable, caring, and made sure they were well taken care of while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Kimberly is an experienced dog trainer who has a lot of patience. Our puppy, Jack, is currently fearful of new people, but Kim really took her time getting him to warm up to her. She was able to take him on walks while being communicative with us throughout. It was great going into the weekend knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Kiera is a sweetheart! We met prior to the check ins and i felt very comfortable. She was there on time for the times I asked, late evening and early morning. She sent great pics and I could tell my dog was well and happy!”
“My husband and I have had Lauren look after our fur-babies 3 or 4 times now. She is so reliable and it is such a relief to know our pets will be well cared for while we are away. Lauren always provides thorough reports of her visits, including snuggles. Our pets took to her quickly and continue to enjoy her visits. We love seeing all the fun and silly photos Lauren captures when she is with our fur family. We can tell by the looks on our babies’ faces and their body language in the pictures that they adore Lauren and are thrilled to see her each time. We will continue to book Lauren to care for our fur-babies whenever she is available when we are away. Thanks for all you do for us, Lauren!”
“Cindy does a great job. She's very kind and thorough. And she's reliable as well as supportive. I truly appreciate her help with my kitty when I have to go away. I will definitely book her again ☺️”
“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter at our camp, and Paul made the whole experience easy. He was reliable, sent regular updates, and our mini australian shepherd, Ziggy, clearly felt comfortable with him. We scheduled a meet-and-great in advance of the first visit to give Paul the lowdown on the routine, and he followed through perfectly on the second visit. We will definitely have Paul help us out in in 2026.”
About: Since I was little, my family has always had at least some kind of animal in the house. 7 years ago when I got my first cat of my own, Daisy. She is my best friend, and our bond is like no other. It seems like I'm the only one in the house she can tolerate, as she has a pretty spiky personality. 3 years ago in the fall, I got my second cat, Simba. In these 7 years of owning and caring for my fur babies, I have cat and dog sat on and off more times than I can count. I usually do sitting and care outside of my home, because my cats can be dramatic and aren't very open to other animals stealing their spotlight. I'm currently working part time and work early shifts so I have plenty of open availability to help with your cats and dogs. I available for boarding on weekdays after 2pm and weekends any time. I am strongly built and am able to pick up, crate, control, and walk dogs up to about 150lbs. For cat sitting, cats naturally love me as I do not invade their spaces if not welcomed and know where to and where not to pet them.
About: As a lifelong dog owner, I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including feeding, walking, and maintaining routines. I’ve been trusted by friends and family to look after their pets and provide attentive, reliable care. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and focused on making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. I’m available most days of the week for drop-in visits and dog walking, and I can accommodate a variety of schedules, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I prioritize reliability and will always communicate clearly and show up on time. I provide care in my client’s home through drop-in visits and dog walking, and I take safety very seriously. I’m attentive to details like properly securing collars, harnesses, and leashes before every walk. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I stay aware of surroundings at all times and prioritize road safety to keep your pet protected. I follow your pet’s routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including my own pup. I’m patient, loving, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and routine. From walks and playtime to cuddles and calm supervision, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to spare for your pets 💕 I am looking for full time so my availability is scheduled to change. I treat every pet like family and always put their safety and comfort first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. I can follow any instructions you provide including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and cuddle time. My goal is to create a stress free, positive experience for your pet while keeping you updated every step of the way.
“I am very pleased with Jonathan for taking care of my dog Piper on Christmas day. She can be a nervous dog but she took to Jonathan very well and was very happy to see him. He has a gentle nature with pets and I highly recommend him to care for your fur babies.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who need a slower pace and extra attention. I take a calm, reliable approach and focus on each dog’s individual routine, safety, and comfort. What sets me apart is my peaceful, low-stress home in a quiet country setting in the town of Bleecker inside of the Adirondack Park, where dogs receive one-on-one attention, consistent care, and plenty of space to relax. Your dog will be treated like family and cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m always home and structure my days around consistent feeding times, walks, play, and downtime, so dogs always have attention and companionship. Living in a quiet country setting allows for a calm, low-stress environment with plenty of space to relax and enjoy fresh air. I keep a predictable routine while adjusting to each dog’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. Whether it’s daily walks, enrichment, or quiet companionship, caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I live in a quiet country home with plenty of outdoor space. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are always supervised and taken outside on a leash so they can safely explore and enjoy the fresh air. Safety is always my top priority. Please let me know if your pup is off-leashed trained, so I may work with them after they are comfortable on the property. Dogs in my care will also have the companionship of my friendly corgi, Ginger, who is well-socialized and enjoys being around other dogs. The newest addition to my household is Nori, a corgi puppy. She currently has a lot of energy and is in training, doing very well. I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Your dogs and my dogs are allowed on the couch and the bed. We love to snuggle up!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Johnstown
Fantastic help, she watched our boys while we were out of town and made sure to keep us in the loop! She gave medicine (to cats!), swept, and scooped litter. What I appreciated most was she took some initiative while we were gone and ensured our faucet was dripping during cold snaps. Could not recommend more highly, your pets will be well looked after.

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 .

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.
