“Samantha is GREAT!! ? She visited our cats and fish over the Christmas holiday. There was unexpected water damage to our unit from a pipe that burst in another unit and she was so great about letting us know the damage while we were gone and truly went above and beyond to send us pictures and make sure our pets were okay. We will be using her again for sure!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs in the care of another. Tracey did a wonderful job and took great care of them. Thank you for taking great care of our fur babies.”
“Sarah made our first Rover experience wonderful! She came by before booking to meet my pups. She was incredibly responsive and an excellent communicator while we were gone. When an problem arose she promptly reached out to me, my emergency contact, and the vet for advice, all in the time it took me to return her call. She even added an extra visit at my request and was at my house in no time. We would absolutely book Sarah again.”
“Ashley is amazing! Booked her to check-in on our four cats and we received so many pictures and great updates. Loved to photoshoots! I could also tell our shy cat warmed up to her immediately. Will book Ashley for pet care again!”
“Kellie was so great with Milo! She came to meet him ahead of time and get a clear understanding of his needs. She was very reliable, communicated effectively, and shared such cute pictures!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have had them as part of my life since childhood. Over the years I’ve cared for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so I’m very comfortable around all kinds of dogs. I also spent several years working at an animal shelter where I helped care for dogs of all ages and temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, cleaning kennels, and making sure each dog felt safe, comfortable, and loved while they waited for their forever homes. That experience taught me how to read dog behavior, stay calm in different situations, and give every dog the patience and attention they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, a long walk, or just some extra cuddles and company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy and well cared for. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I’m home most of the day. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care throughout your pet’s stay. My day is already structured around caring for my own dogs, so adding another pet means they’ll be included in a routine of regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and rest. Pets are rarely left alone and are part of a calm, home-centered environment. I’m able to give frequent updates, adjust to your pet’s needs, and provide plenty of interaction throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can also accommodate pets who may need a little extra attention, consistency, or companionship. Your pet will be cared for as part of my daily life, not just scheduled in. I treat every pet like they’re my own, so safety and trust mean everything to me. My home is a calm, clean, and pet-friendly space where your pet can relax, play, and feel comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs — whether that means extra playtime, cuddles, or giving them space to settle in. I stick to your pet’s routine as much as possible so they feel secure and stress-free. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to respect your space and keep everything consistent for them. I also send regular updates and photos because I know how important it is to feel connected while you’re away. My goal is simple: for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Bianca went above and beyond caring for my kitties when I had to leave town abruptly for a family emergency. She asked all the right questions to make sure they got the care they needed and was very respectful of my home. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I grew up with dogs. Not just in my household, but in my cousins’ and grandparents’. I learned from a young age how to take care of dogs. These past 4 years especially, I have started pet sitting for friends and family alike. I can walk, bathe, and play with dogs. I also know how to administer medication, if needed. I am a big lover of animals. Any animal under my care is automatically going to be treated with the utmost care. I am currently on summer break from my college classes. The only time I would not be able to pet sit or walk would be Wednesdays from 1:30 to 2:30. I have a fenced in backyard. I do have a pool, but I will never leave your pet unattended in the backyard. I have a cat, but she can easily go into the main bedroom comfortably.
About: I've grown up taking care of animals for years including both my own and for friends and family. I have taken care of all different ages of dogs and am comfortable with any kind of personalities and follow special instructions very closely. I'm very patient and make sure pets always feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you're away! I'm currently working full time as a barista which means my schedule is consistent and easy to work around. I am typically available in the afternoon and evenings. Your pets safety is always my top priority. I follow all instructions carefully, keep a close eye on routines, and make sure every animal feels secure and comfortable. In your home, i respect your space, keep everything tidy, and maintain a stress free environment. You can count on consistent communication and reliable care every time.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a little tot. From cats to dogs, I do it all. When leaving your pet with me I will make sure to take top tier care of your baby. As I know how nerve racking it can be to leave them when you’re away. I will send updates daily to give you a peace of mind that they are in good spirits. Look forward to meeting your fur baby. <3 My day to day schedule is very flexible so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). Whether you need someone full or part time. When caring for pets in your home I love written instructions, but can easily adapt if there are none. If wet outside I will let them out to go to the bathroom then dry their fur before letting them enter the home.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lavon
Kelli is amazing with our senior dogs and gives us such peace of mind while we are away. I was so worried about the additional care my senior would need, but she assured me she was capable of handling the protocol, and communicated confirmation of everything she did in each visit so I never had to wonder if medications were given or my dogs were doing okay. We are so grateful for her thorough communication and loving care!
Samantha did amazing with my kitties and on such short notice too. Even our one kitty who doesn't really like strangers took to her. She did great and will definitely book her again and have already recommended her to a couple other fur parents. Thanks Samantha.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lavon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
