“Sara is awesome and the pups had such a great time with her! She is very accommodating in helping us with our sitter needs! She is also extremely helpful in not only watching our dogs, but also in offering tips and tricks and in providing useful info for finding our young pup a kennel (as he starts to outgrow his current one). Definitely recommend!”
“Had to find a sitter for my cat last minute and Taylor was quick to respond and made the time to meet me and my cat before I had to leave. She was communicative and made me feel comfortable leaving my little guy for a weekend. Will use again!”
“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 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!
“Marilyn was wonderful with our two Labs Zoey and Remi! This was the first time we used a pet sitter on a drop in basis. We have had some not so great experiences with boarding them when we have been away so we decided to try this. We are so happy we did. Marilyn always arrived when we requested, did everything we asked her to do, and even sent photos and videos. Our dogs were happy and content, which is priceless and relieved our stress in leaving them. Will absolutely use her services again.”
“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.”
About: I’ve grown up with all types and ages of animals. I’ve taken care of new born pups to senior pups. I’ve been the trust worthy dog and cat sitter for all of my friends and family since I was a kid. Growing up I had breeds from a mastiff to a tea cup yorkie so I’m comfortable with any size dog.

My availability changes from day to day day because of classes so feel free to reach out! While watching your pet, I can take them for a walk in the park, play with them in your backyard yard, give medications if needed, and let them in and out as much as needed
“Jamie was so great with my pup and guinea pig! She was able to meet beforehand for an introduction and during her visit she sent lots of pictures and updates on everything. I felt comfortable and confident that my babies were in great hands with her! I’ll definitely be reaching out to Jamie for pet sitting during my next trip out of town.”
“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 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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kearney stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
