“Anna was fantastic. She came to watch my dog and cat while I was away for 4 days. She was amazing with sending detailed visit cards and sending tons of pics of my boys! Definitely want to hire her again!”
About: I’m SUCH an Auntie with all the pets I watch! I've regularly cared for all my siblings' dogs for decades -my sister's two medium dogs have even recently been for a stay of over a week, right here in my apartment! So a multi-day routine is pretty easy for me. I've been told more than once that a pet who "doesn't usually warm up to people" ends up seeking me out! Since it seems to be a strength of mine, your shy pet may end up a good friend! I live in a studio (no private yard), but I have a fenced back porch for outdoor time and the complex is very secure so walking around here is no problem! My schedule as a certified night-owl runs roughly noon to 5am, so I'm a great fit for lunchtime visits and evening/night walks -and bonus (!) you don't have to rush back from a late-night out, since I've got your doggos covered well past when most sitters would need you home. For overnight boarding, I'm a light sleeper and stay responsive to your dog's needs through the night and early morning. I won't cancel for snow -I grew up driving in snow and ice even from before 16 on a South Dakota farm and spent over a decade in Wyoming winters, so Colorado weather doesn't scare me off (maybe a blizzard sure, but otherwise!) My own 8-year-old cat is fully comfortable around dogs and cats. She's been present through all of my sister's dogs' stays (check out the photos!) and has her own secure, independent access to our enclosed back porch as well as a catio enclosure for daytime chillin'. Currently my job is DoorDashing, so I could whittle out any time for all pets! I am a big night person, so as said noon to 5am is typical. That would mean I would be awake with your doggos for more time than typical sitters at night. I am willing to do several days in a row if needed since I can move my dashing schedule around quite easily. When I am at your place not only will your pets be taken care of with whatever schedule you need, but your house will be looked after as well. If there are any accidents that need to be taken care of, I will make sure it's set! My home is very small -just a studio (a good-sized studio apartment), but I have had my sister’s two medium-large dogs stay there with me for over a week and they did a great job! It’s not much area to wander around in, but I have pet beds and spaces to feed them! I also live on the first floor with a walkout small back porch that leads to the well-maintained outdoors of the apartment complex where I can easily take your dogs for any outside time they would need. The soundproofing in my place is also immaculate, so even if they bark everything will be okay! I do have one cat. So if your dogs or other cats are not okay with that, I am more than willing to come to your place if need be. She is great with others as long as they’re not too into her business and she has places that she can hide when she needs so she is great! I also have a “catio” on my back deck that is attached to my window with a pet flap where my cat goes out and chills. It is a very large enclosure.
“Alex was great and professional! On time and took our pups on a walk and made sure to send pics and check in before leaving in case there was anything we needed before he left. Thank you Alex!”
“Second time booking with Danielle and everything was great! Very accommodating and attentive to our needs. Thank you Danielle for taking good care of our babies and our home! Highly recommend!”
“Shannon was beyond amazing. It was our first time using Rover and I have never felt so comfortable with someone at our house. She responded so quick, sent a ton of pictures and she even wiped our dogs paws from the muddy snow! I think our dog was actually bummed when it was us that came home and not Shannon. She gave her so much love and attention! We will definitely rebook her again.”
About: Hi there! My name is Katie and I have over 5 years of experience as a professional dog walker and dog sitter. I have had dogs of my own in the past and love spending time with animals. I work full time during the week during normal business hours, but would love to care for your dog in the evenings or on weekends. I accept offers for sitting at your home, drop in visits, walks, and boarding at my home. I live in an apartment complex with a dog park within walking distance. I work close by to my home and visit my dog there during my lunch break. I also enjoy exercising in the evenings so incorporate my dog into that as well. Weekends are for long hikes and walks, and visits to the dog park. I always make sure to keep eyes on the dog when opening and closing the door. My dog is always leashed outside unless we are at the dog park where I know it is enclosed and safe.
“Rebecca and Arri were wonderful. They were willing to complete a meet and greet with the kitties before accepting the visit. Though they didn't watch the dogs they interacted with them at the meet and greet. After the walkthrough of the house they asked relevant and thoughtful questions about our kitties care our nerves had us forget. During the visit they always showed up,sent a Rover card, and a little description of their time with the cats. One of our cats is higher energy and can become overstimulated easy. They were patient and understanding requesting advice and accepting suggestions. They implemented those suggestions which made a measurable difference in our kitty's comfort and theirs. We plan to hire them again for socialization and walks with our pups very soon! We recommend you do the same!”
“Perfect person all around excellent ? person she has taken care of us so well ? I'll be using Brianna from here on out!! Perfect dependable gave me props even when I was unsure!”
“Elissa was great to work with! From the meet-and-greet to providing care for my dog, everything went well. Elissa was on time, communicated, and sent lots of great pics. I could tell my dog loved spending time with her. He even brought her one of his favorite toys. 😁”
About: I've cared for various dogs and cats since I was a kid, small mammals since I was a teen, and reptiles the last few years. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet while you're away. I'll gladly throw a toy or be a warm lap for your pet to enjoy! I'll adhere to your requirements and do my best to ensure your pets are as happy and unstressed as they can be while they wait for their humans to return.
“Brooklyn always takes the utmost care of my pets, is prompt with responses to any questions, and makes sure every one gets good care and lots of love! We adore having someone who is so kind and helpful to come by, and the animals all clearly enjoy her too! Will continue to use her for our pet care needs!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kelim
Ali was wonderful with our pups and everything you're looking for in a sitter: responsible, proactive, personable, and an animal lover! Both of our dogs are a little nervous around new people, but they immediately took to Ali. She took great care of them and our house during her stay, kept us updated, and was flexible and easy to work with.
Coral was an amazing pet sitter for our anxious kitty. It can be difficult to find a sitter that our cat is comfortable with. During the meet and greet, our cat was already rubbing up against her legs and wanting to smell her! During drop-in visits, she made sure to take lots of pictures and send detailed notes, which I really appreciated. Coral also cleaned up the house a bit (took trash out, started dishwasher, etc.) before she left, which was such a thoughtful touch. We (and our kitty) would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Coral for your great work!

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.
