“Kass did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs and 2 cats. We have quite the pack here and she did a spectacular job!! Kass took care of our animals for 6 days while we were out of town and we came home to happy, well fed, loved on pups. She even got close to at least one of our cats…something that is very rare! We will be using Kass in the future and I highly recommend her for you pet sitting needs!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Justine. I had a sitter no show the morning of my trip and was honestly panicking. Justine stepped in with only a couple of hours’ notice, came right over, asked smart, caring questions, and immediately put me at ease. My two rabbits, Bunbun and Baby, have very unique care needs, and I’m normally pretty nervous leaving them. Justine was attentive, communicative, and so thorough. She kept me updated every step of the way, check-ins, updates, and tons of photos every day. She even brought my garbage can back in from the street, which was so thoughtful. What impressed me most is that Bunbun and Baby seemed to warm up to her faster than they usually would with someone new, which says everything about her calm, patient energy. I felt completely comfortable having her in my home and for the first time, I was able to just enjoy my vacation without worry. I’m so genuinely grateful Justine was there. She turned what could have been a disaster into such a positive experience. Reliable, compassionate, and above and beyond. Thank you, Justine!”

About: I absolutely love dogs and animals of all kinds. While I haven’t formally pet-sat before, I have years of hands on experience caring for my own dog, Luna. I walked her daily, fed her, bathed her, brushed her, played with her, and made sure she always felt loved and cared for those moments were truly the highlight of my day. Through caring for Luna, I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and attention are for a dog’s happiness and well being. I’m gentle, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m excited to give other dogs the same love, care, and attention that I gave Luna. I am currently working part time so i’ll have plenty of time to get some walks in! I’m up for any time of day to walk your pup it all just depends on my work schedule :) I currently only offer dog walking services. I focus on providing safe, attentive walks by using secure leashes, following your instructions, staying aware of my surroundings, and making sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hi! I'm Misty- Lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom of 4! I know our pets aren't "just pets", they're family. I also understand how much trust it takes to hand someone else the leash or give them access to your home and ask them to care for someone you love. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable. I'm responsible, reliable and detail oriented. I have years of experience caring for my own dogs through all stages of life. Puppy to senior and everything in between. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, goofy dogs and even stubborn dogs (I have 2 English Bulldogs and a French Bulldog, enough said!). For walks, I'll make sure your pup gets exercise, attention and plenty of sniffing time. For drop in visits, I'm happy to handle potty breaks, meals, fresh water, playtime, cuddles and whatever routine helps your pet feel safe and happy while you're away. I am also happy to care for cats and other household pets during drop-ins. You can expect lots of communication, photos and updates from me. I'll carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, double check doors and gates, and treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I am excited to join rover, as pets and exercise are two of my favorite things! Free time spent with animals sounded like a pretty great side job to me! If you're looking for someone reliable who will genuinely look forward to seeing your pet, I'd love to meet you and more importantly, your furry family members! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I have a consistent Monday-Friday work schedule from 7:30-4pm, which leaves me available for early morning visits and walks before work, as well as evenings after 4pm. I am also available all day Saturday and Sunday, every other weekend, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, feeding, play time and extra attention while pet parents are away. Because my schedule is predictable, I'm able to plan ahead and make sure every pet gets the time, attention and reliable care they deserve. I provide care in my clients homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow each pet parent's instructions for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration, and of course plenty of love and attention! Safety is always a priority. I make sure doors, gates, leashes and harnesses are secure. I am respectful of both your pet's boundaries and your home. I understand that every pet has their own personality, so whether they're ready to be best friends immediately or need a little time and space to warm up, I'm happy to follow their lead. I'll also send photos and updates during each visit so you can feel confident that your furry family member is safe, happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Alexus was so sweet and kind to my kittens! She sent great updates and my cats loved her! One of my cats is pretty shy but wasn’t scared of alexus at all. Definitely recommend using her and will do again in the future”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also potty trained three dogs and worked with them on basic commands, giving me hands-on experience with training and understanding dog behavior. I also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I regularly walked dogs and spent time keeping them company. That experience taught me how important it is to approach every new dog patiently and respectfully, while paying attention to their body language and comfort level. I know that every dog is different and that even the sweetest dogs can be unpredictable in a new environment. I take the time to build trust and let each dog warm up to me at their own pace. Above all, I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love caring for animals. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care—just like one of my own. I'm currently not working at the moment, so I have lots of time to help cater to your dog's needs! I am free most weekdays and weekends, from early morning to early afternoon. I believe the best pet care starts with keeping pets comfortable in their own routine and environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual feeding, walking, potty, medication, and play schedules as closely as possible. I also take time to give them plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship so they feel safe and cared for while their family is away. Because I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have volunteered at an animal shelter, I’m comfortable with dogs of many different personalities. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m patient when getting to know a new pet and attentive to their body language and individual needs. I treat your home with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own.
“Jasmine was absolutely wonderful! She took care of our three indoor cats for over a week, and we couldn't have asked for better care. She is extremely friendly, a great communicator, and kept us completely at ease while we were away. Jasmine made sure everyone was fed on schedule, spent quality time playing with them every single day, and went above and beyond to keep them happy and healthy. On top of taking fantastic care of our fur babies, she made sure our house stayed completely secure, giving us total peace of mind the entire trip. We will definitely be booking Jasmine again and highly recommend her!”

“Gabriela was very attentive to my dogs. Made me feel much better that they were still getting attention each day and they were not losing out on anything. I will definitely be using her in the future for trips and she was very responsive and followed all directions as requested.

Alexis has become such a trusted part of my resource circle. She is my peace of mind and my cats and my lil shiatsu Henry Jack absolutely love her. She is professional and kind and treats their “home” like it is her own. Highly recommended Alexis if you travel for extended periods of time.

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.

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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
