“Chandler is great! I can’t recommend him highly enough. He provided wonderful communication and lots of photos during our week away. I was able to relax on vacation knowing that my cats were being well taken care of. We have already rebooked Chandler for another cat sitting stint.”
“Marlee is fantastic! She went above and beyond in taking care of our husky, Murphy, and our two guinea pigs. She was extremely communicative, and it's clear she loved on our pets as if they were her own. We would love to have Marlee take care of our pets again, and I am definitely recommending her to my friends.”

Ever since I was little I’ve had a dog there for me in my life. I treat every animal with care and respect! Your dog will be in great hands when booked with me! Right now I am on leave for quite a while so everyday any day will work for me. I will be around the dog 24/7 and make sure they are happy and taken great care of. I have a fenced back yard and a fenced play area in the basement where dogs can run around and play without getting too hot because outside in the hot sun all day.
About: I have been a dog owner since I was a child and I’ve been walking dogs for friends and family. Since I was about 15. I treat every animals as if it’s my own and give them all the love and respect that you would want when someone is in the care of your animals Working part-time gives me a flexible schedule, which makes pet care a great fit for my daily and weekly routine. I’m able to plan walks, drop-ins, and playtime around my work schedule while still having plenty of availability during the day. I love having the opportunity to stay active, spend time with animals, and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are getting the attention and care they deserve. I can access MILITARY BASE !!!! I take caring for animals seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting them in their home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My home has a fenced-in yard, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy some outdoor time and play. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind while they’re apart.
“Marianne was absolutely delightful at our meet and greet, and the gang 🐾 loved her from the start! The pics each visit felt very personal, and I knew my babies were in good hands!”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I’ve always had animals/pets in my life. I’ve owned everything from small dogs to big dogs and cats. I’m a teacher so all pet care will have to be in the evening after school. I typically will finish the school day at 3:30. I own two cats and provide them with safe home environment with plenty of enrichment. I will make sure that your pet is well taken care of and they’ll have a fun time too.
About: I love dogs and cats like they are my best friends because they are the most loving, loyal creatures I’ve ever met on this planet! They make me so happy always! I have an hour lunch during the week and weekends are usually free! If I commit to watching a dog/cat for several days in a row whether checking in or staying at their home, I make sure they are well taken care of cuz that’s really all that matters. They get all my love and attention! I have a pet friendly house but much rather take care of them at their own home as it’s likely more familiar/comfortable for them and convenient for the pet’s owner.
“Maddie was excellent! She was patient when I had last minute issues, and was very accommodating. She treated my kitties like they were her own! I came home to very content and well-cared for kitties. 10/10 recommend and would hire again!”
“DeVonna did a great job with our pups! She was timely and communicated well. We did a meet and greet prior to our drop in and both dogs loved her, she was also very accommodating in working out a 2 hour stay which was best for our schedule that day. We will be booking again!”
About: I have taken care of animals of many shapes and sizes throughout my life, from large dogs to kittens. I also have volunteer experience at KC Pet Project. I actively take care of cats and dogs of my own most days of the week around school and work, as well as maintaining other hobbies. Being able to help others with their pets is very fulfilling to me! I have experience feeding, brushing, walking, and training animals. In my clients home i would provide the upmost care for their pet and their home.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats since I was 11, including during their illnesses and senior years. Friends and family often ask me to house-sit, feed, entertain, and care for their pets while they are out of town for any amount of time. I have a wide range of experience including kittens, birds, rodents, and large dogs. I currently work part-time/seasonal on a flexible schedule. I am available for all kinds of care outside these hours, including walks, drop-ins, and home sitting. I live in a home with a fenced yard with my three pets, which does not make it ideal for hosting. I do live in a fairly quiet neighborhood where I am able to walk dogs for a long distance without much strain.

About: I grew up with all different sizes of dogs with different needs. I loved getting to know the pups and seeing what made each one unique.

About: I have a lot of hands on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments from my family and various jobs. Every dog is different and deserves to be treated as so with a great amount of patience and care. I have had hands of experience with ptsd/reactivity even though every situation is different and learning more every day. I’ve had a lot of time spent with senior animals who require more patience and attention in their day to day care. I do work a full time job but have a flexible schedule for mornings, evenings, and nights. I can have a very structured schedule so fitting any form of pet care will be a quick and easy adjustment. I follow any instructions or tips regarding your pet. Not only does it keep your fur baby safe, but gives safety for me as well. Leaving your pet is not easy, so it is extremely important for me to do to my absolute best to adjust to your already set routine you have in place.
About: We have a big fenced in backyard for lots of room for dogs to roam and explore. We live in a small cul de sac and quiet neighborhood where walks would be enjoyable. We have had several pets we have raised from young to old. We have taught basics of sit, lay, shake, and stay. I work from home and have the availability to play with your dog, give lots of snuggles, and let them have time outdoors and playtime with other dogs. I work from home and have 2 dogs, 2 bunnies, and a gecko (gecko doesn’t really come around other fur babies). My dogs are social and love to play with others. With our big fenced in backyard the dogs will have lots of room to run around and play. If your dog needs to be kenneled we can accommodate that.

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.
