About: Grew up around dogs and cats (and some farm animals) but currently living in an apartment that doesn’t allow them! Need my fix of pet love! I am a teacher so I am available more in the summer. During the school year I am available before 7 am and after 3 pm. Available most weekends. Although I can’t keep your pet(s) at my home, I’m happy to visit yours and/or do any other house sitting needs! Former babysitter, dog sitter, and house sitter.

About: I’m currently a sophomore at UW–Whitewater, and I’ve grown up around pets my whole life. My family has had two dogs, three cats, and three horses, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I’m currently a student at UW–Whitewater with a flexible weekly schedule. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I’m available before noon and after 4:45 PM. On Tuesdays, I’m available before 2 PM and after 5:40 PM, and on Thursdays I’m available before 2 PM and after 3:15 PM. This gives me plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they are with me. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I keep a close eye on pets during walks and visits, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give each pet plenty of attention and care.

About: I have an 8 year old coonhound named Trigger. He is the light of my life. I love to care for family and friends dogs in my free time. I work 50% from home and 50% in the office. I am off Saturday through Monday. I have the flexibility needed to provide care as needed. I have an incredibly friendly and easy going coonhound named Trigger. In his older age, he has become quite the couch potato. In his younger years, he loved going to doggy day care to romp around. We have a large unfenced yard for dogs to enjoy.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I have a 7 year old golden named bode. I am familiar with medication distribution and other restrictions. Bode was diagnosed with lymphoma at 5 and has been in remission for 2 years. I grew up with labs as well as shitzus and my dad has a 9 year old golden. I would prefer to meet any candidate prior to boarding as they will be in the same space as my golden, he’s a gentle giant and gets along with all animals. He is a service animal so I have experience in training and younger dogs as well. I work from home full time and have a lot of free time to give during the week. Weekends are busy for me at the moment but will slow down come winter. I work from home so week days are great I have a lot of flexibility for walks and play time and potty breaks. Very attentive and will have my golden to play with. Big grass area to play at but no fence, live in a townhome with lots of toys. Since I work from home I’m very attentive and responsive.

About: I’ve been around dogs forever now! I’ve had all kinds of experiences with all different breeds. I can’t wait to love your pet almost as much as you do! I’m currently working from home and would love to have an excuse to get out of the house a little more often. I also love taking walks! I have a fenced yard and cameras set up around my house. I also have a security system in my house for doors being left open and so forth.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, with a special appreciation for senior pets and those who need extra patience or consistency. One of the most meaningful experiences I've had was adopting a 12-year-old cat that developed chronic kidney disease (CKD). I cared for her through nearly four years of treatment, managing medications, hydration, appetite, weight, and daily routines until she passed away just shy of her 16th birthday. That experience taught me the importance of careful observation, consistency, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior that can indicate something isn't right. I also have experience caring for a Yorkshire Terrier and understand the unique needs of toy breeds, including their size, energy, and safety considerations. Several family members and friends have larger dogs that I take on walks and care for when they're away. Professionally, my background is in consulting and project management, which has made me highly organized, dependable, and detail-oriented. I follow instructions carefully, communicate proactively, and believe pet owners deserve regular updates and photos so they can enjoy their time away with confidence. My goal is always to care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for my own. Pet sitting fits well into my schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care while maintaining flexibility. I currently offer overnight house sitting, typically from approximately 7:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m., when many pets appreciate the comfort of having someone with them overnight. During the day, I may have other work or personal commitments depending on the booking, but I always communicate my schedule in advance so expectations are clear. I strive to keep pets on their normal routines for meals, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and companionship while respecting the schedule that works best for each household. I understand how important consistency is for animals, especially seniors or pets with medical needs, and I do my best to minimize disruptions to their daily routine. I am able to pick up your animal and drop them off for an additional fee ($10 / day). When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is maintaining the environment and routines they already know. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, exercise, household rules, and any special care your pet requires. I take time to build trust with each animal, allowing shy or anxious pets to become comfortable at their own pace. Safety is extremely important to me. I pay close attention during walks, keep doors and gates secure, monitor pets for changes in behavior or health, and never hesitate to contact an owner if I have a question or concern. I also treat every home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine, keeping it clean, secure, and well cared for during your absence. Communication is a key part of my service. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know how your pets are doing and can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I started taking care of animals, both cats and dogs, 11 years ago! I've provided animal care services for family members, friends, and for other families through referrals! It's extremely enjoyable to me when I get the privilege to take care of a new animal.! I never want a owner to worry their animal might be too much for me as I've dealt with a variety of dogs and cats in both size and temperament- I can handle practically anything! A majority of my animal care (if not all) has involved me staying the night for a week or two with the animal/s. I love to spend a lot of time and be active with the animals! Whatever was needed and instructed in care maintenance for a clients animal- I've happily handled with ease! As of right now I'm doing freelance work, so my availability is pretty open! If you select me for a specific pet care need, we can discuss it together and come up with a plan that best fits your needs! I care for my pets as if they were my own and through the clients instructions on how to care for their animal! Whatever the client is asking of me and for their animal needs, I will happily fulfill with ease and make sure their pet is taken care of!

About: I've taken care of pets from as earliest as birth and into their elderly years, since I was 8. My family would occasionally breed our American Akitas. I've trained them, bathed them, cleaned up after them, and administered medications. They are a ton of work, but always worth the effort when we saw them finally meet their forever homes. I am available for whatever service you need, except for boarding, most days of the week except Thursdays after 2 pm, Fridays, and Saturdays before 2 pm. I am unable to care for your pet at my residence. We have 5 dogs here currently and I wouldn't want to overwhelm your pet with so many new faces. I am more than willing to be as accommodating as needed to care for them in your home, walking them, or simply letting out for a potty break.

About: I have 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs & cats of all ages and personalities. I have also worked in pet care roles and fostered animals, including those who are shy, anxious or have special needs. I am patient, gentle and attentive and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs and routine. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM in an office, so I plan my schedule around providing reliable, attentive care for the pets I look after. I’m available for pet care outside of my work hours, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I understand how important consistency and communication are, and I always do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and maintain their routine. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away! In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and safe, supervised time, and I’m mindful of giving pets their own space when needed—especially those who are shy or adjusting. In your home, I focus on maintaining consistency and following your instructions closely, including feeding, medication, walks, litter care, crate routines, and playtime. I treat your home with respect, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal in any setting is to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

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.
