“Ronnie was wonderful in all ways. She was always on time, if not early. Communication was full of great info about her sessions with our dogs, and we got lots of photos and videos while we were away. From the moment we met her, our dogs clearly loved her.”
“Amazing having Kathy take care of our dog Ariat. She took him on walks around the neighborhood and every day she showed up he was waiting for her in the window. She sent pics and updates each visit. We felt comforted knowing she was taking such good care of him while we were gone. Thank you so much!”
“Chase did everything we asked and our dogs were well taken care of. I appreciated how gentle he was in response to our girly’s barking. He spent extra time with them the first night and communicated when he had schedule changes.”
“Lyndsey was amazing. She played with my dog and sent pictures of her. I can’t wait to use her again in the near future hopefully. Thanks so much Lyndsey for making this a great experience for me and My dog 😊”
About: I used to work in a Petshotel taking care of dogs and cats. I have a passion for making animals happy and providing them the the proper care they need. I can administer medications in a variety of ways and have been able to monitor multiple dogs at once during playtimes. I have had 10 dogs in my lifetime, and I can't wait to meet even more. I ask that I meet every pet before hand to make sure we will be a good fit before providing services. I recently graduated with my masters, so I am on the hunt for a full time job. Currently my availability is fully open, but is subject to change later. I had dog-sat many of times before and am extremely respectful of other's property and how they choose to take care of their pet. I like to send pictures of people's pets to them while they are away so they can relax knowing they are in good care.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I’ve been asked by friends and family to dog sit many times, and have helped care for anxious dogs, as well as basic needs such as food and walks. I can also help with basic puppy training! I am available in the evenings M-F after 5pm, and on most weekends to stop in for visits or to stay overnight with your pet if needed! Right now, I have two cats in my home, but have access to a big yard and nearby parks for walking dogs and letting them play.
“Victoria was great and our dog Denver was happy to see her when she came over to let him out. We met prior to Denver’s visit so she could meet him. She was very friendly and polite. Look forward to having Victoria watch Denver in the future.”

I prioritize feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication when needed, and plenty of love and attention. I communicate regularly with pet parents and provide updates so they can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I treat every pet as if they were my own family member.
“I would choose William again to take care of my little kitty! We had a last minute request and William made sure to come and meet my cat and us first to make sure he knew our routine. Our baby was spoiled and William made sure to take care of our cat, cat supplies, our house so we came home to a clean house and happy cat. 💕”
“Thank you thank you thank you for taking such awesome care of our Roscoe. We appreciate your flexibility, communication, extensive detail, and lots of pictures. Heidi administered as needed medication appropriately and was very detailed in her reports. All signs say our boy loved her. We were able yo focus on our trip, knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Lindsay is an excellent cat sitter. From the very beginning, she was responsible, kind, and extremely attentive. She took wonderful care of my cats and made sure they were comfortable, safe, and happy while I was away. Lindsay kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s clear that she truly loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her again.”

About Me My name is Sam, and I am 28 years old, residing in downtown Kannapolis, NC. I have been a professional sitter since I was 16 years old, and this is my first experience with Rover.

Now that I’ve moved to Kannapolis for work, I am excited to reopen my services and welcome new clients in the area.

I have a dog park in my apartment complex, and one dog to keep your furry friend company! I do ask for you to bring your dog here once prior to boarding to make sure it can feel comfortable with you present
About: I've been caring for dogs for 6 years, my own dog is a Chorkie (Chihuahua/Yorkie mix), who I've had since he was a puppy.

Emily was absolutely AMAZING!! I’m hesitant to let anyone watch my cats, but I had an emergency and she quickly responded to my request. My cats adored her (even my “moody” rescue cat!!) and she was very punctual. I cannot thank her enough for the level of care she has shown.

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 .

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 .

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.
