“Molly loves when Cory comes over. He takes super great care of her and keeps her in the center of his attention. It means a lot to me to know that she is being looked after by someone who shows her so much love.”
“Kim was amazing! She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful! She communicated wonderfully and sent plenty of pics while I was away. This was the first time I left my cats with a sitter and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Kim was so wonderful and made it such an easy process. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my girls were well taken care of! 💞”
“Kasie has been great with our berner! He’s older and never had drop in visits so he’s been a little hesitant with her but she has been great and so patient with him, we appreciate her time and effort!”
“Stefanie was so sweet! She took great care of our two cats and spent time loving on them while we were gone. She was very understanding of their quirks and needs including with our older cat! Will definitely book her again if we go on another trip!”
About: When I was younger we had 3 dogs, they were my best girls! Over the years we had rescued 8 cats, one of our cats may have some autism but she is so gentle and just needed some love. The trick is to let them come to you so they see you as a safe space! I currently work part-time but I am not working as much this summer, I may have a few softball lessons since I play college softball. My morning and afternoons are mainly free, in the afternoon is when I workout but I am very flexible! We used to have a fenced in area in our backyard for our dogs and a pool deck (no pool) but had to tear down our deck and now we have a beautiful grassy green area with lots of plants! Our home inside is very pet friendly we have cat and dog toys as well as cat and dog food/treats!
“Britney was the sweetest person! She was great with my girls and they were very relaxed with her even though they just met her. If we are ever in her area again, we would definitely use her again! I highly recommend her.”
About: With a lifetime of experience growing up with dogs, including a Dutch Shepard named Rita whom I taught tricks, I am comfortable with all types of animals. In fact, my dad was a dog trainer, which provided me with additional insight into proper pet care techniques. I’m fully free after work to spend all the attention on your special friends. I will make them my priority in all my free times. Able to follow your instructions to the order.The more information you have to share the better! I want you to leave feeling safe and secure!
“This was my first time to use Rover. Caitlin was great! I liked that I was notified when she checked on my pets and getting pictures of them from Caitlin was reassuring that they were happy. Will definitely use Caitlin again.”
About: I have been in the veterinary field and pet sitting field for over 10 years, I love animals so much! and will care for yours with love and respect, as if they were my own. I am a full time veterinary technician, but make time for part time pet sitting and pet transportation. I will usually do check ins between 7-8am on the weekdays and Night time check ins around 9pm depending on the week. one week I'll work Friday-Sunday and my check in may be later at night, and the next week I have the weekends free and check ins can be anytime of the day. Depending on distance from my work I can do mid day check ins. I also do over night stays, and have a spot open for 1-2 small animals- same family for boarding. I follow every instruction that is left for me, go above and beyond to keep pet happy. I take pictures and send updates always. I make sure my pets are always left comfortable and safe, well fed and happy. I have a separate, very spacious room where i can safely board 1-2 cats of the same family, or one cat and one small dog, same family. I do have cats of my own but they do not have access to that area. I also accept small critters- reptiles as well. Cage and supplies will need to be provided.

“Hannah was very sweet, punctual, and attentive! She sent pictures and was very patient with my pup that sometimes refuses to go outside. Quick responder. Will book again.”
About: Potty breaks Walking I’m home care Out home care I can do anything for your pet and you won’t regret that you picked me for the job. Big or small and I can do the job, does it woof or meow? It doesn’t matter because I can do it. I have no allergies with any animal and I’m a very big animal lover of all sorts. I’m available all through the week and weekend and even some holidays. I had 2 little pups of my own before I moved to Lubbock but sadly we had to give them away because we were staying with a friend. I believe that your dogs and cats will fill the hole in my heart. Thank you so much for your time.
“Brittany was super communicative and great with my cats, sending us videos of the cats everyday and giving updates on them! I’ll definitely use hire next time we’re out of town!!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life! I grew up taking turns potty training, walking and trick training our dogs. I also have experience bottle feeding puppies. I have partial experience caring for senior fur babies. I also have partial experience giving oral medication. I know some dogs have their own preferences for medicine taking, whether with cheese, meat or peanut butter. Just let me know what works for them and I’ll do it! We didn’t have our senior dog for very long but I am more than willing to learn what your baby needs and will do whatever it takes to make them happy and comfy! I’m excited to meet, love and care for your pup! I currently work, mostly, full time. Tuesday afternoons and Thursday mornings are my free time during the week, but I am also willing to work before or after work on the other days! Also, my Saturdays are entirely open! I unfortunately cannot offer boarding but I can come to your pet and give them the best care I can! Depending on what your pet needs I can let them out to potty in a fenced yard or I can walk them then crate them after, if called for. I can stay for as long as needed to accommodate their potty break and/or if they need play time or just some company! I will follow whatever schedule you have set up for them!

Mikalah P. was fantastic! Her love of animals shines brightly and my lab absolutely adored her! We used her for walking while we were out of town, and she was so creative in thinking of fun and different things to do to keep Bonnie stimulated!

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 Kilgore 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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
