“I can't say enough nice things about Hannah, she is absolutely amazing! She watched my two elderly cats for two weeks, and did a fantastic job. I absolutely hate leaving them and typically worry the whole time I'm away, but after the meet and greet I knew they would be well cared for and safe. They both liked her immediately which is extremely rare for one of them. That same cat doesn't do well with being left, she's always extremely clingy and lethargic when we return home. This was the very first time, (and she's 13 years old) she seemed happy and unconcerned by our absence! It really showed how comfortable and secure she felt. Hannah is kind, professional, and quick to respond. I'd hire her again in a second!”
“Valerie is awesome, she’s very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs. Highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and even went so far as to observe their bowl movements to see how their health was while we were gone. I will be using her in the future whenever we travel!”
“My Layla girl had a very stressful day; I was out of town and unable to get to her to cuddle her to bed and Nicole was great with her!! Took her on a walk, tucked her in, and spent the full 30 min taking care of my girl. Also very friendly and communicative!”
About: I adore all animals, but I especially love dogs! I have a 6-year old mini chipin back at home! My next door neighbors are professional trainers and boarders so I’ve had some good experiences. I’m a full time student at AU. I’m done every day by 2 p.m. I’m looking to decompress and take a brain break all while making furry friends happy with lots of love and walks! I live on campus, so services will always be at your home! I aim to maintain the routines set in place and keep your fur babies comfortable and happy!
“Nina was very kind and communicative about Chief when we needed someone to let him out a few times when we were out of town for the day. We would for sure book with her again:)”
“Amanda was fantastic! Communicative, on-time, inquisitive, and does extremely well with large dogs. I will definitely look to book her for future drop-in visits.”
“Highly recommend!!! Meaghan not only accepted a pet sit for me on short notice but was a great communicator, kind and kept us informed. She was also super punctual and thoughtful about the meds she was giving and what our dogs needed. I had great peace of mind knowing she was caring for our babies while we were out of town.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of two French Bulldogs—a mother and her son. I’ve been involved in every stage of their care, from assisting with the birth of a litter to administering medications and routine injections when needed. I’ve also cared for as many as eight puppies at one time, so I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs while ensuring each receives plenty of attention and care. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll tailor my care to their needs. I work full time, but I’m available before and after work as well as on weekends, allowing me to provide dependable care and consistent communication. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own.

“Mary was absolutely amazing! She made sure to make our dog feel so comfortable and loved. She always made sure to do everything we requested so that nothing in our dog’s routine would be different. Will be rebooking in the future!”
“Elana is very professional and caring. We were very fortunate to have booked her last minute before a holiday weekend. She was promt with all her visits, sent us loads of pictures of her snuggling and playing with our babies each time, and we had no concerns they were in good hands. Elana kept great communication as well. We won't hesitate to ask her to sit for us again. Highly recommend!!”
“Nicole was a pleasure to meet. You can tell right away that she’s an animal person! She showed up as scheduled and hung out with my guys. I’ll definitely use her again!”
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. My mom and I started doing TNR and taking care of a colony of cats when I was around 8 years old, while also having cats and dogs of our own! I currently have my own cats and dogs who are my entire world. I volunteer regularly at the SPCA in Aiken, SC and have a few months of experience from working at a dog and cat boarding facility. I have a lot of experience with cats that have different medical conditions such as FIV. My own cats have had surgeries and needed to be medicated so I have experience in giving pills and liquid medicine. I’m not currently working which means I have a very flexible schedule. I am more than happy to discuss a routine that works best for you! I can care for your pets by dropping by and spending an extended amount of time with them to ensure they are getting any emotion connection they may need. In addition, I will take care of the basic necessities such as cleaning and feeding. I am more than happy to send updates throughout the day/time period to ensure you know how they are doing!
About: I have taken care of dogs professionally for 5 years, but have been studying and caring for dogs all my life! I am able to walk dogs of all sizes, administer medications (including insulin and related meds), cut nails, bathe dogs, and do basic training. I am a college student and I also work a part-time job, but I am am away at most for six hours of the day and can come by anytime between school and my job! I will be able to conduct house sitting activities such as basic cleaning, collecting the mail, and any chores in addition to pet care. While your babies are with me, I can guarantee you quality care and love, of course!
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. It was just family dogs until I turned 14 and then I started branching out and dog sitting for my neighbors and family friends. I have plenty of experience with crate training, potty training and much more. I am currently working at a vets office so i am usually free on the weekends, before 8am and after 5 pm. I also have plenty of time on my break to check in. I don't usually keep pets at my house but I can if need be. I have 2 very friendly dogs. One is a black lab and the other is a schnauzer. I do also have a cat and he's friendly but he mainly just keeps to himself. I have a big fenced in backyard and 2 crates in diffrent sizes if they need to be put in a crate. I also have plenty of dog toys and tennis balls if they enjoy playing fetch.
About: I’ve been dog sitting & cat sitting since I was 17 and have loved it since! I have 1 senior dog, and 2 cats that I couldn’t live without! I’ve been pet-sitting since high school, but have been using it as a side hobby since I’m in college studying social work! I’ve dog sat for puppies-senior dogs, and cats of all ages,I am able to administer medications, and love outside walks/play! I am in school full time, but have a reliable schedule & transportation. Monday/Wednesday/Fridays I am available anytime after 1 PM. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available between 8 AM-11 AM and anytime after 3 PM. I have a fenced backyard but I know many great walking places in the city if applicable. I love playing and enrichment time for all animals.
About: I’ve always loved dogs and cats and fish since I was a little. I got to pet sit for my friend once and I knew from then I loved animals even more. I finally got my own and I realized if I loved doing this so much, I should just do it as a job so the most important thing I can do for someone else’s animal is give them love, care and attention they need. I work a part-time job like two days a week so I have plenty of time to pet sit and hang out with cute cats and dogs!! I have two cats who are inside pets, I play with them all the time, and I have them on a schedule. It feels easier to have them in a routine.

I cannot say enough good things about Amanda! Rocco and Matteo love her and looked forward to her visits throughout the day! She was very attentive to their needs, checked in on time and stayed longer when she felt they needed her too. She made this anxious dog mama feel so much better that she was there for them and I could enjoy my trip. I will not hesitate to call on her again for any vacation or out of town trips. Thank you so much Amanda! You are so appreciated!
It was a PLEASURE to have Nicole drop in on our baby, Maverick while we were out of town. Our usual sitter was unavailable for our last minute trip and I scrambled trying to find someone right before having to leave. Nicole was available to meet right away and she took the best care of him. I could tell from the moment he met her that he would love her. All of his check in pics had a huge smile on his little face lol We’ll definitely be booking with Nicole again in the future!
Meredith was absolutely incredible. This was my first time ever leaving my dog at home with in-home visits, and she made the entire experience completely stress-free. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and clearly someone who truly loves animals. On day one, my sweet Bella had an accident, and Meredith handled it without hesitation. She cleaned everything up and reassured me right away, which meant more than she probably knows. This was Bella’s first time being left at home, and Meredith was so patient, gentle, and loving with her. She even brought toys and treats and made sure Bella felt comfortable, safe, and very well loved the entire time. I would 1,000% recommend Meredith to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their fur baby. Bella was cared for like she was her own, and I am beyond grateful.

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.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
