“Magda is an amazing sitter. She watched our 4 cats for the first time over Christmas break. She is incredibly punctual and attentive to all of our cats special needs and even brought potential house issues to our attention. Her communication is on point, from the meet and greet throughout the actual sitting. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
“I highly recommend 🐶 Destiny 🐶 for her exceptional services. Remi, my beloved toy poodle loves her time with Destiny. It is evident that 🐶 Destiny 🐶 has a genuine love and passion for animals as Remi always is happy and excited when their together.”
“I’m not even sure where to start, Erin was AMAZING! We had an issue with the door handle that she took care of, the dogs had a rough day and she handled it, she got my mail, and even cleaned up some dog hair! One of our pups decided to go on a hunger strike and she got him eating again by hand feeding him! I would not hesitate for a second to have her back! She was the best and I highly recommend her!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! We did 3 drop in visits and each one was done in a timely manner with all the focus on the kitties. Communication was a breeze and our cats were very comfortable the whole time!”
“Xin is beyond amazing. She cared for my 2 kittens as if they were her own. She’s wonderful with them, shared lots of pics and updates and they loved her. It was clear they were in good hands and I had nothing to worry about. Highly recommend ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
About: I've taken care of many different dogs, I am comfortable with all breeds and ages. Ive had experience with every energetic puppies, as well as low energy older dogs, small dogs that are all over the place and loud ones. I've lived in a household with pets basically my while life, aside from dogs I have experience with cats, lizards, small animals (specifically rats and hamsters), and parrots. I am very passionate with them all, love spending time with them. My house and neighborhood is great and safe for walking pets, not many cars come through and there are not that many dogs around, so accidents would not happen. And my house is large with a lot of large empty spaces so the dog wouldnt have a chance to be destructive. Most of the time I would be available, I spend most of my time at home, and I do college online. Occasionally I might leave for a day, and in October I'm going on a trip 5-17. My house is very pet friendly, I currently have rats but they have their own room to which I usually keep the door closed. A large part of the house has a lot of empty spaces and the main living room currently doesn't have much furniture, but still a lot of space to run around. It does have stairs. Our neighborhood is a great place to walk around, not that many cars or people walk around, so there would be no accidents. Unfortunately my back/front yard is not fenced, so the dog would need to stay on a leash. I will also listen and follow all the instructions provided by you in your home, I respect other people's spaces and privacy.
“Sammi did a great job watching my cat. She kept me updated daily and sent pictures. I definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs and will be asking her to watch my cat next time I'm out of town.”
“Jen is an amazing pet sitter! I cannot say enough about how well she cared for our two cats while we were out of town. I have one cat with special medical issues who requires both oral and injected meds, and Jen handled her complicated situation with the utmost care! She is incredible in her communication and always sent me detailed updates and pictures from her visits. On top of being highly qualified, she has such an evident love for animals. She snuggled my cats on every visit and even got my shy kitty to become her friend. Do not hesitate to call Jen if you want the best care for your family pets! We (and Izzy and Oscar) are already looking forward to her next visits!”
“Alena is very attentive to all special request and handled my large dogs excellently! It is clear she loves dogs and I would highly recommend her for care for any of your furry friends!”
“Ana was amazing in caring for my pug while I was out of town for a few days. I tend to get easily anxious when I leave my dog, but Ana was SO communicative both in her scheduled updates and whenever I needed to ask her something in between. She actually gave my dog true attention including play and interaction, well beyond simply showing up to feed and walk. Thank you so much, Ana!”
“Julia is amazing!! She is quick to respond and takes the most adorable pictures!! I also love the notes she leaves with each drop in. I would HIGHLY recommend her!! My dog absolutely loves her.”
About: Cats and dogs have been part of my everyday life since childhood. Today my wife and I share our home with two cats and two dogs — so your pet is joining a household that already speaks their language. I've cared for family members' and friends' animals through house sitting, in-home drop-ins, feeding, walks, and play — at my place and at theirs. Laid-back, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. Pet care is my full-time focus right now. While I take cybersecurity courses and work toward a new career in tech, my days are built around home — which means your pet gets consistent, attentive care every single day of the week. I am available for both daycare and boarding seven days a week with no gaps in availability. A typical day looks like this: Meals Three feeding periods — morning, midday, and evening — keep pets on a consistent routine throughout the day. Walks Dogs go out 6 to 7 times a day, roughly every 3 hours, so there are no long stretches of waiting — they stay active and comfortable all day long. Cat play Cats enjoy one to two dedicated play sessions each day to keep them stimulated and engaged. My home is a pet-friendly, well-organized space designed with animal comfort and safety in mind. Here's what you can expect: Resident dogs Two friendly small dogs — a Pomeranian and a Chihuahua — live in the home and are great companions for visiting dogs. They've spent time at doggy daycare themselves and are comfortable and experienced around other dogs, which helps guests settle in faster. Cats in the home There are cats in the household. Baby gates are in place throughout the home to create separated zones as needed, keeping cats and dogs comfortable and giving everyone their own space to decompress. Yard & outdoor time My yard is not fenced, so all outdoor time is leashed. With 6 to 7 walks a day, dogs get more than enough fresh air and exercise — and they're never left unattended outside. Crating A small dog crate is available if a pet is crate-trained or needs a quiet retreat. I'm also happy to use a crate provided by the owner if your dog is more comfortable in their own space.
“Jaeda did a great job with our golden retriever. She knew just how to manage him on his walks and provided him with lots of petting, as well as playtime. She followed our directions thoroughly and took initiative with providing him with longer walks to calm his energy. She has a natural and caring temperament which really made him feel comfortable.”
“Yutong did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 Shiba Inu boys while we were out of town for a couple of days. He was incredibly responsive, sent loads of photos and videos, and made us feel very sure that our dogs were happy and well cared for. We will certainly be reaching out to him again to take care of our dogs!”
“Pamela is amazing with dogs. Caring, compassionate, loving and provides excellent care. You really can’t ask for a better care giver for furry family! Would recommend hands down and plan to rehire.”
About: Hi! My name is Andrew. I’m a nurse working in critical care and behavioral health settings. I hold bachelors degrees in Nursing and Public Health, and I’m pursuing my long term goal of becoming a DNP Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse practitioner. I joined rover as a way to make additional income and prevent burnout by picking extra nursing shifts. I have firsthand experience caring for dogs, having a golden doodle myself. I understand the responsibility that comes with being entrusted with a pet. From daily walks and feeding schedules to playing, companionship, and providing a safe environment, I treat every pet with the same attention and care as I would show my dog. I work as a nurse on a predictable schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my days off. As a dog owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine. I have a golden doodle and understand the importance of regular walks, exercise, attention, and maintaining a pets routine. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine for every pet. As a nurse and dog owner, I’m dependable, attentive, and detail oriented. I follow all owner instructions, provide plenty of care and attention, and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Ashley was amazing with our cat sitting needs. Taking time to check food and water as well as changing out the litter box. She even took care of the plants that were in need of some water love during the heat!”
About: With four years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, giving each one personalized attention, love, and reliable care. As a college student with a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to care for and play with dogs, giving them attention, walks, and love. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable space with plenty of toys, walks, and cuddles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines carefully, keeping pets relaxed, happy, and cared for just like they’re my own.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kingston
Ryan is amazing. Conscientious, attentive, caring, highly communicative. Ryan spent all summer coming to our house 1 sometimes 2x a day to let our 8 week old puppy out. With ever changing rules about puppy freedom activities with our VERY energetic older golden, she always asked what she could and couldn't let them do. I would hire Ryam 100x over she is amazing. 100/10. No notes.
Brent took great care of our dogs while we were away. He was reliable, communicated well, and made sure they were happy and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We really appreciated his help and would definitely book with him again. Highly recommend!
Sylvia was great and took wonderful care of our dog, Orion. She asked lost of questions and made sure she understood everything my about how to best care for him. She was trustworthy and forthcoming about everything that occurred while we were away. I would absolutely recommend her!

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 .
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 , 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 .
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.
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.
