About: I have been pet sitting since the age of 13. I have the patience with puppies & most definitely go above and beyond to care for every pet. Full time SAHM! Own no pups of my own, & I have a 3 year old son who adores pups! Perfect fit for pups who do not get along w other animals! I have a small fenced yard, to compensate for this I usually take pups out to a dog park/ walks to get their energy out. I follow closely to any instructions given for pet care.
“Michelle dropped in on my pups to give them “brunch” and some outdoor time when I had an early day out of town. I think all went well, very well, cause they were chill when I returned. That was a bonus! I will definitely ask her to help out again!”
“Daisy has been taking care of our cat Hissy for a couple of years now and I can't recommend her enough! She is so great to communicate with and is great with Hissy and all the instructions that Hissy requires. I can't recommend Daisy enough!”
“India did a wonderful job caring for my guinea pig. She was very flexible and understanding when my trip was shortened which I appreciate so much. Parsnip was in great hands!”
“Mikayla did drop in visits for my dog for this past month and she was amazing. She was so communicative, reliable and going above and beyond to find new ways to entertain my pup with treats, tricks, and interactive toys. Would definitely use her again, and highly recommend her for caring for your pets :) !”
About: Please don’t allow my reduced star rating to deter you from booking with me! I unfortunately took on a couple jobs that I shouldn’t have with dogs with behavior issues and the owners ended up blaming me although I provided the best care possible. :( I am now more diligent in asking the necessary questions before accepting a job. I do this because I love animals and also to earn very much needed extra income for my family of 8. I have had pets all my life including dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters, frogs, and turtles. I also grew up in a small farm town for a good part of my childhood and was around a lot of farm animals. I currently have 1 dog of my own who is friendly and playful, as well as kids who can help keep your fur babies active and having fun. We live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can work with your needs. I have mostly open availability on the weekends and also for boarding or overnight care. I have a yard with room to run, although it isn’t fenced, we do have an outdoor kennel area and a dog run line. I’m also able to crate pets inside if needed. I can also take dogs for walks around our quiet, private neighborhood, or to the dog park for more room to run.
“Amazing! She did an amazing job with our 3 dogs. She sent pictures every time she checked in and communicated with us daily. We were so happy with the experience and couldn’t ask for anything better!”
“Melissa took excellent care of my babies. I enjoyed my weekend trip worry-free with her looking after them. She wrote great reports for each visit and took lots of pictures for me. I would book with her again! Thanks!”
“Hayden is an excellent cat sitter, and my two cats loved playing with her. She she took really cute photos of the cats every visit. She took great care of the cats and I will definitely rebook with Hayden again in the future 😀”
“Jessica will be checking in on my pets while I’m on vacation. We’ve setup a few visits prior to let them get to know one another. My little Aussie-Poo can be a bit timid with new people, but Jessica has been very good with gaining his trust. Jessica has been very accommodating with scheduling. I’m very happy with her watching my fur babies.”
“Regan is absolutely fantastic! She took amazing care of my dogs while I was away, giving them so much love and attention. I could tell they were happy and comfortable the entire time. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals, and my pups adored her. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter—highly recommend Regan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and kind!”
“Barbara was great taking care of our two kitties! We could tell that our beloved felines enjoyed the visits and they were in great shape when we returned. Barbara was reliable, punctual, conscientious and followed our instructions to the letter, and we enjoyed the daily updates. Highest recommendation!”
“Great experience! Love all the live updates and images of the drop in visits. Appreciate Stephanie’s communication and flexibility with our schedule. Definitely will continue to use her as needed! Very positive overall experience with Rover being a first time user.”
“So thankful we found Mariah. She has been so responsive and helpful. Always on time, provides great daily updates, and the best pictures. Her sweet disposition automatically put me at ease along with our pups.”
“As always Charli takes great care of my pups whenever needed and they look forward to seeing her! So thankful to have Charli take care of the pups as I don’t feel the need to worry or stress about them, they’re in great hands!”

Regan is so communicative and leaves the best notes to keep us updated on what’s going on with our pets and is amazing to work with. I was able to add on an additional drop in visit for our senior dog while we were away and she was so accommodating. Always our first pick when going out of town!
We have been incredibly lucky to have such an amazing dog sitter! Daisy has cared for our pups for over a year and she is consistently reliable—always on time, and often even early—which gives me total peace of mind. More importantly, she is so attentive and genuinely caring with my pups. They absolutely adore her, and it’s clear she treats them like her own. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but she exceeds expectations every single time. I can’t recommend her enough!
Cesilia was great with Loki & Raider! When Cesilia came by for the meet & greet, the dogs seemed to like her right away. Loki enjoyed some playtime with his new stuffy during the drop ins. Raider is always shy around new people, but I think she will warm up to Cesilia with a few more drop ins and upcoming housesitting.

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.

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.
