“Anna was quick to respond to a last minute request. She arrived on time and took great care of my elderly beagle. She provided a report every visit with pictures which was greatly appreciated. Will book again!”
“She was very flexible with stopping in and seeing Cauldron. My plans got flipped around and she worked with me. Would definitely rebook with her! Thank you again for all your help!”
“Gabriela saved us in a pinch, she was always on time rocko looked happy when we returned, he would look stressed normally after being boarded. Definitely will call her again.”
“Denisa is always great with my old dogs. I can tell they’re happy to see her in the pictures and videos she sends of her visits. I don’t feel bad about leaving the dogs at home when I know Denisa is going to be taking care of them. Great sitter.”
“We love booking Emily and her husband to take care of our cat Lola whenever we travel. They are always punctual, and make sure they spend lots of time giving her attention. When we come home, Lola is in great spirits!”
About: I’ve always had animals in my life. We grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, even a duck! We’ve had our animals from babies to adults so I know how to care for animals of all ages. I understand the importance of training and attention for puppies & kittens as well as the patience & extra needed care that elderly pets may require. I’ve always been the go to sitter for friends and family as they know I’ll treat their animals with the same love I have for my own. I’m currently full time but work different hours throughout the week so there’s times where I’m available to care for pets before a shift, after a shift, or both! I have more availability on weekends and sometimes have extra time during the week as well. I have a fenced back yard where your doggos can run around and enjoy some much needed play time and let out their zoomies! I have a 5 year old Olde English Bulldog named Ozzo who’s a sweetheart and loves to play (only for about 10 mins before he gets tired) and a cat Bobo who keeps to himself.
About: I have cared for family and friends’ pets who rely on me for loving, dependable support. I have provided feeding, walks, playtime, attention, and companionship while making sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability to provide your pets with attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy creating a safe and comfortable environment where pets feel happy and loved. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet I care for. When visiting clients’ homes, I respect their space, follow their routines, and provide attentive care, love, and companionship, so pets feel secure while their owners are away.
“Melissa was fantastic. She showed up on time every day and gave my cat lots of love while I was out of town for work. She provided pictures of her and her food, giving me peace of mind while I was away that she was being taken care of. I highly recommend Melissa for watching after your pets.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past few years. I am 32 years old. Neighbors, friends of family, family… walk, feed, sleep over and play. I am a teacher so between the months of July and August I will have availability between Monday-Friday during the day and night at any point of the day. I just recently moved to the area, so I have a lot more freedom up until mid august! I am very active and constantly going on walks and I would love to have your dogs join me! I also would love just popping in to let your dog out or feed them daily if need be!
“Samantha is absolutely amazing; she did much more than the bare minimum and made sure to give my cat some playtime and affection while I was gone. She's very good with communication and sending photos — highly recommend!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Shavedra took great care of our kitties! She sent daily updates and pictures. We didn't realize we were low on dry food, but she let us know in time for us to order delivery. We highly recommend her and will be asking her to sit for us in the future. Thank you, Shavedra!”
About: I grew up being the neighborhood go-to for pet sitting. I've even done long term stays with pets while their owners are gone. I love every animal like they are my own and am great with both cats and dogs. I am currently a full time student at George Mason University. Summer break is around the corner and my schedule will better allow for me to care for your pets! In the meantime time, my availability is as shown on my profile! While I do not have the capacity to bring other animals into my home, any pet trusted in my care will be treated with love and respect in the comfort of their own space.
“Willow is amazing, very passionate about animals and it shows with each visit. The pics she sent shows how happy my pets are to see her with every time she drops in! I will certainly have her watch them again!”
About: Hi, this is Sara! :) We live in a townhouse with an small fenced yard where pups can play. The area is very nice to walk around and peaceful. I’ve always been an animal lover, especially dogs. I have over 3 years of dog sitting experience and walking. I will love and treat your dog like it was my own! I am very responsible, helpful, friendly and loving person. I have no issues with being in contact and sending pictures all the time to the dog’s parents. I have a part-time job from home. I have tons of time off during the day and weekends! I would have a lot of time to be with your pup! The area we currently live is very nice to walk around and even if the pups want to be in the yard it’s fenced and safe.
About: Hi, I'm Lindsey! I’m a dog mom and I know how stressful it can be to find reliable and trustworthy help. I care deeply for our furry friends and want to help you create a more active life style for them. Whether you’re taking a vacation, have to work late, you're stuck in traffic or simply want to enjoy a guilt free happy hour...I'm here to help!

You can never be too safe! I myself have a curious pup…even at his senior age. Making sure your safety precautions and preferences are met is #1.
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life, they were always a part of our family! Rest assured, your fur babies will be treated as family too! I enjoy being outside so will be sure they get plenty of outdoor time, indoor play time and enrichment, especially for dogs/ cats who need to get that frisky energy out! Any special instructions also will be followed as needed/requested. I have a a lot of flexibility with my schedule and self employed so can make mid day and evening visits easily. My weekends are usually open and can make time as necessary. My cats are family so they are treated with love and respect. Rest assured, your fur babies will be taken care of just as such.

We couldn't be happier with Dawson's care for our two hounds — Cleo and Clover might love him more than us now! He kept us updated with regular photos, communicated clearly, and treated our girls with so much love and compassion. We’d gladly hire him again anytime!
Shavedra took great care of our kitties! She sent daily updates and pictures. We didn't realize we were low on dry food, but she let us know in time for us to order delivery. We highly recommend her and will be asking her to sit for us in the future. Thank you, Shavedra!
Brigette is awesome. She’s helped us out with our near senior, somewhat particular spaniel and way too energetic kitten a couple of times now. We come back and they’re tired (in a good way) and happy. We trust her in our home and with our critters. Will definitely use Brigette going forward.
Gabriela has built a great relationship with my two dogs. They totally enjoy her and are excited to see her every time. Gabriela is the only one I have been able to trust with my pets since I’ve moved them here. Her availability is always convenient and she always gives great updates during the day. We are so appreciative her services.
Our expectations were well exceeded by Mary’s excellent communication and her adherence to our agreed schedules. We hadn’t left our pup for an extended period before and was grateful to Mary for her care. We would definitely consider hiring Mary again if she was available! We are particularly pleased when our dog’s pet sitter treats her almost as well as we do with conversation and pets.
Lohan did an amazing job taking care of Tracy and Lola! He stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. He exceeded my expectations, was kind, dependable, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book his services again the next time I need someone to care for my pets. Highly recommend!
She is a great pet sitter ! 😊 . She’s not just a sitter that sits around and watches your pet. She actually plays with them and loves them like they’re her own. I loved the pictures that she sends and she’s a very great communicator. ! Will be looking forward to booking her again

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 .

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.
