“Taylor took care of my furry guy for a week and she was absolutely amazing. She was always available to communicate and she always gave me updates. She was extremely kind and caring. I highly recommended having Taylor take care of your pets! :)”
“Sara has been an absolute god send! She was my 7 year old Golden Retrievers sitter for 5 days while I was out of town. She always sent photos of their walks and visits, let me know how each visit went and was always punctual. Echo loved her too! It’s always hard leaving town but she really took my stress/anxiety level from a 10 down to a 2. She went above and beyond! We love Sara and can’t recommend her enough. We definitely will contact her for our sitter/walker needs in the future.”
About: I have worked with everything from Chihuahuas to Saint Bernards so I know how to give your pets the best care as possible. I train dogs professionally so I know how to properly ensure that your dog gets the necessary amount of physical and mental stimulation needed for a happy healthy life while you’re away! I work from home doing everything do related “nail trims, walks, basic obedience, trick training, boarding, behavior training, brushing, bathing, etc”, so I’m almost always available to take care of your loved ones. I do everything I can to make sure your pet is as comfortable as they can be while you’re away. I cater to all types of personalities and breeds no matter how cranky they can be.
“Randi I can't thank you enough!! We have a dog that can be a little temperamental with new people and Randi took the time to come meet her while we were home and it went perfect! She sent some sweet pics and all 3 pups were in great hands. Made my day being able to have them in great hands!! Will be rebooking whenever we are gone!! She is wonderful!!”
“Kendra was wonderful with a last minute request to let our pups out while we were both at work. She sent the best pics and videos to update us throughout our long 12 hour shifts away.”
“Becca was professional, communicative and was very detailed when it came to noting my cat’s daily visits! We were so thankful to have her come and take care of him while we were gone. Definitely recommend!”
About: I love animals! I’ve always enjoyed pet sitting for friends and family. I have a very flexible schedule so I decided why not do more! I don’t work a normal 9 to 5 job so I am available almost anytime to come love on and care for your fur babies! I have pets at home so I wouldn’t be able to bring yours here at this time. But I would love to come to your home to play ,brush ,feed /water and clean up after them. I have experience with giving meds and enjoy walking dogs too!
“I can’t recommend Karly enough! My cat is usually shy, but she’s clearly so comfortable around her! You can see it in every video and picture she sends. I really appreciate the constant photo updates, which give me total peace of mind while I’m away. It’s obvious she always makes sure my cat is happy, safe, and well cared for!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was little and I will make sure yours feel loved and cared for:) I have had jobs like this before, and I can feed, walk, and clean up after your dogs! I’ve also worked at animal shelters for both cats and dogs, among many other animals. I’m new to Rover (I made the account in 2022 but didn’t have time to use it), so please be patient with me as I learn the system🫶🏼 I just moved back home for a while, so my schedule is pretty open as of now. I am busy Sunday mornings, but the rest of the week is very flexible. I can come to you and walk your dog, or you can come to me. I love animals very much and I would love to help! Your furry friend will not be able to stay in my home because our cats are moody:)
“Jamie is the best!! She has play dates and sends pics to us from home. Our dogs have so much fun with her…she spoils them and we couldn’t ask for a better sitter to leave our fur babies with!!!”
About: Hello! I am currently taking a gap year while applying for Law School and adore spending time with dogs! I have an older family dog at home & have 5 years of experience dog sitting for many different families (10+ sweet pups) during my previous studies. I enjoy giving your dogs all the love while you have to be away from them! I know how hard it is to leave a pet with a stranger because they really are part of the family, so please let me know what I could do to make you comfortable and know that they will be well cared for so you can enjoy being away! I have flexibility during the week around studying, but weekend boarding or evening walking also work great for my schedule! Feel free to let me know exactly what you’re looking for & I will try to make it work! Looking forward to hopefully meeting you & your pup in the future!! I’m currently studying & have a lot of control over my schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets & work around their needs! I love playing with pups if they need to get their energy out, including playing in the house depending on the dutch weather, or going for walks when the sun is out! But I am also happy to just snuggle with on the couch with your pet while I work on my laptop if they’re needing naps!
About: I have watched elderly dogs, puppies, and up to 4 dogs at a time. My sister was a vet tech, and taught me animal behavior! I am currently working part-time, and would love to take care of your fur babies! Pets are family, and I will treat them with care! Have hosted 2 dogs at my house over the past 9 years, enjoy their company. I love animals, and will cater to their unique needs.
About: I’ve had and been around dogs all of my life, both big and small! I’m an active college student who loves dogs and prides myself on my responsibility. I’m currently a full-time student and have a part-time job, but have plenty of time before and after classes to hang out with your pup(s)! I am able to house-sit some week evenings and weekends. When caring for your pets in your home, I will ensure they are safe, comfortable, and having fun! I’ve known some crazy pups, so I have some tricks to keep them out of trouble.
About: I grew up on a farm in rural Nebraska. I helped take care of everything from cats up to horses/cattle and all in-between. In our home we have June a mix of Basenji/German shepherd, she is 5 years old. Then we have Hank he is a dash hound mix at 4 years old and last but not least we have Florence a shorthaired calico that's almost 2 yrs old. I work from home so that being said I'm home ALL DAY! Your pet(s) would have constant run of the house and huge privacy fenced in back yard. I also love to do interactive toys/mats to keep the brain working hard through the day. We go on daily multi walks! At most your pet would be kenneled for up to two hours in case of grocery/picking up kids from events etc. I have two outgoing friendly dogs that love having play dates! We have a big fenced in back yard for everyone to play and run around in! I can kennel my dogs while your pet has eat time if need be for focus etc. All animals are allowed on all furniture and beds in our home as well.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds for over 7 years. Friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to walk, feed, and give their pets plenty of love and attention. I’m comfortable with playful puppies, calm companions, and senior dogs needing gentle care. Your furry family member will always be safe, happy, and well cared for with me. I’m available for pet care after 10am, seven days a week. With advance notice, I can start earlier if needed. Overnight stays are also an option for families who prefer round-the-clock care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, caring environment where they’ll feel secure, loved, and well cared for whether I’m in your home or mine.

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.
