“We had another great experience. Ella was timely, professional, and great with our cats for feeding, clean up, and even play time. Our one cat hates strangers and he even warmed up to her. Will definitely be using Ella again. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Halle was amazing!! She bonded very quickly with my little one. Was prompt, attentive to my dog, and made sure to give her cuddles while we were away. Leaving our dog behind is always rough but Halle gave us peace of mind that she was being well taken care of!”
“Joybhad a marvelous first time with Lexi! Totally put our mind at ease while we are out for the day. Can't wait to reconnect with Lexi the next time we need a hand with our pup!”
“Was quick to respond, very helpful in making sure thay not only was my doggy OK, but that i turned off my hot hair tool! Will be reaching out again for any other visits in the future :)”
About: I've had a dog, multiple cats, 2 gerbil, and multiple fish growing up. I have also helped out friends with multiple pets throughout the years and want to continue to help those who work feel better their furry pets are having a caring friend look after them. I currently am available 8 AM to 4 PM Monday through Friday to check in and walk your pets. I loom forward to meeting you and your pets and help in any way I can! I feel getting to know each pet individually is important to be able to best take care of each dog or cat. I want to be able to best serve each pet to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away.
About: My passions? Coffee, dogs, and music. What else do you need? I've been taking care of dogs since I got my puppy 16 years ago. She now lives with my parents, but I've always tried to keep dogs a part of my life as much as possible since I love them so much! I'm fortunate to have several friends and family members with pets that need caring for - I love to help out but also selfishly love to spend time with animals! I have experience taking care of dogs from puppies to seniors. I'm aware of how needs differ from one to the next and adjust care accordingly! I work full-time 5 days a week, typically Sunday to Thursday with the occasional Friday/Saturday. However, my work day ends at 2PM, so the rest of my day is super flexible for pet care! If your dog needs care before I start work, I'm happy to fit them into my schedule, and I don't mind staying overnight with your pet if needed! I'm not allowed to have pets in my apartment, but I'm always willing to spend as much time with your fur baby in your home as you need/prefer. I don't have a pet or child that needs me after work, so your pet would be my first priority!
About: While I am new to offering services on Rover, I bring over 23 years of experience managing and caring for multi-dog households. I’ve raised, trained, and cared for dogs through every life stage—from high-energy puppies to gentle seniors needing extra patience and mobility support. I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets; they're full family members who thrive on consistent routines, clear boundaries, and genuine companionship. Key Strengths & Skills Multi-Dog Household Management: Skilled at reading canine body language, managing energy levels, and maintaining harmony among multiple dogs. Routine & Schedule Continuity: Accustomed to following strict feeding, exercise, medication, and sleep schedules to ensure your dog feels secure while you're away. Safety & Environment First: Experienced in dog-proofing homes and yards, handling leash walks securely, and keeping safety as the top priority during all interactions. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am usually up with my dogs fairly early in the morning. I am available most week days and weekends. I know how important it is for pets to stay in their comfortable, familiar routine—especially when their owners are away. When caring for your pets in your home, I prioritize security, routine, and personalized care.
“Amanda, thank you for taking excellent care of Penny while we were gone. Your attention to details and willingness to help out while we were gone was most appreciated. Best Barry”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, attentive, and highly aware of each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or older and more relaxed, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog with the same level of care, empathy, and attention I would want for my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and secure. Because of my flexibility, I’m able to accommodate different routines and energy levels while being attentive to each dog’s specific needs. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, personality, energy level, and any specific instructions provided by the owner to help them feel secure and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and a clean environment. I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors, gates, and surroundings, and I always prioritize safety and communication. I also understand that every dog is different. Some need play and activity, while others need patience, consistency, and a calm presence. I adapt my care to what helps each pet feel most comfortable and happy.
About: I've taken care of dogs for over a decade from high energy (I have a border collie) to low energy (I also have a shih tzu), elderly, and everything in between. I'd love to make your dog's day by taking them on a walk or giving them an incredible play time. Same goes for your cats! Whether your pets love activity or simply want someone to watch them sniff in the backyard or hang on the couch, I'd love to bring a highlight to their day. Right now, Friday nights through Sunday are the times I have completely free to dedicate to helping take care of your pets. I'm hoping to add more times soon and options to board. As someone who searches for hours to find the right person to watch my pets, I know how hard it can be to trust someone new to take care of your fur family. Whether it's pictures, reassuring texts, following your instructions exactly, or all 3 I will do my best to make your pets as happy and healthy as possible. I offer drop in visits and walks, so please let me know what you are and aren't comfortable with and I will make sure they are well cared for while giving you as many updates as you'd like!
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for dogs of all different ages and breeds since I was little. I’m very patient, caring, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs, and I always want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! :) I’m a college student with morning classes and a part-time job, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have plenty of room to fit pet care into my routine and would love to spend my free time hanging out with your furry friends! Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime! I’ll follow your instructions, stick to their usual routine, and make sure they have everything they need while you’re away. I’ll also be respectful of your home and leave everything neat and tidy! :)
“Amy and Patrick were absolutely wonderful! They took care of Wray and Rudy so well and were very consistent with sending updates and pictures. I will definitely be using them again.”
About: I am very passionate about everything I do, so I can assure you that your pet will be taken care of with tons of attention and love. I’m currently working part time at nights, so I will have lots of time during the day and after school to care for and play with pets. I have had a lot of experience with different breeds of dogs, so I am qualified to meet your pets needs no matter what shape or size!
“Ash was the best of the best of the best hands down thumbs up. She showed my cats all the love she possibly could even though they were snobby about. Took great care to respect our home and wishes and checked in and conversed with me regularly. I felt fantastic about having her check in and care for our cats. Thank you so much Ash”
About: Hi! I grew up on a farm and have taken care of a variety of animals since I was small. In addition to cat and dog sitting, I have taken care of other people's horses, cows, and hogs. I love taking long walks and would love to care for your four legged friends! Right now, overnight house and pet sitting is the best fit. I'm a theatre artist and have some shows lined up for the fall. I would also be able to do mid-day walks. Unfortunately, because I share with several room-mates, I would have to care for your pet in your home. However, I am responsible and detail oriented, and would take good care of your space while I'm there.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lancaster Junction
I think Alyssa was an excellent cat sitter. Chloe, my cat, can be a little territorial, but Alyssa seems to have taken it in stride and managed to get through the week. She made my vacation possible and worry free. I felt very confident that she would put Chloe at ease and do the things she needed to do.

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.
