About: I have a very loving and tender personality. I enjoy going outside, hiking, running, and enjoying nature. The ability to bond and bring life and joy to another has always been my life goal. Dogs/Cats are similar to people in that they need love and attention, thus I would love to spread my love to all that I can. I have always been the one who is dependable and reliable when it comes to details and execution of house sitting and drop-in visits. I am a bit of a neat freak and have an eye for detail, thus if there is a mess that was created or noticed by your dog/cat I will be more than happy to clean the incident upon your arrival. I look forward to bringing life to your dogs/cats day by expressing tender love and care for them while keeping all rules and regulations, you as owners have in place for them. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I love the energy dogs/cats bring and would love to help you out anytime during the day. As someone that has had many dogs/cats, I will continue using any commands and direction you provide to your precious pet. If your precious baby makes a mess or has an accident, so will gladly clean the mess and provide you with an update along the way. I also know that receiving a photos and videos of your pet may bring you joy. I always send a photo each visit to show you that your pet is enjoying the company.
About: I receive great fulfillment from meeting animals needs for safety, sustenance, movement/ play, companionship and affection. I have experience with leash and off-leash training. I have also supported senior dogs with comfort and with their physical needs. I'm currently working P/T, so I will have enough spare time to give attention to, take outside and play with, go potty, and take your dogs on walks. I'm available any day of the week from 10am-5pm. I am willing and able to leash walk your dog around the neighborhood, to their favorite park, or dog park for companionship and play. I am also willing to hit the trails for an off-leash hike as well.
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life—rescues, purebreds, young, senior, feathered, and scaled. My deep love for animals drives me to provide attentive, compassionate care to every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with pets who have medical needs, including diabetes, and understand the stress that can come with managing those conditions. I aim to offer not just reliable care, but true peace of mind for pet parents. I’m currently in Cedar Park, TX and available for pet sitting and dog walking through August 17th. After that, I’ll be heading to CU Boulder for my freshman year. As a student, I’ll have a busy schedule but plan to continue pet sitting when possible. I have my own car, so I’m flexible with travel and timing while I’m in town! I’m happy to pet sit in your home and will always leave your space just as I found it—clean, respectful, and well cared for. Whether you need overnight stays, drop-in visits, or just walks, I’m flexible and here to help however you need!
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.
“Jennifer was very accommodating with my last minute booking. I felt at ease with all the questions she asked prior to checking on my pets. This was my first time using rover and everything went smooth and loved getting pics and feedback on how they did with her. ☺️”
About: I have had pets ever since I can remember: dogs, cats, and fish. I have experience with bigger dogs and puppies. I own a beta fish as well, and have had them on and off for about 8 years. I am in school right now, I attend the University of Colorado Boulder, so I am busy from 12:30-4:30 every weekday. On weekends, I am free all day Saturday and Sunday. In my home, we have dog bowls and treats available, as well as fresh water. We also have a park next to our house for walks. In the clients home, I will be incredibly respectful of your space and be sure that I know where everything is located for the animals so I know they can get the best care while their person is away!
“Tigran has been awesome checking in on and walking my 85 pound sheepadoodle Larry, who can be both reactive and hyperactive. Tigran is calm, reliable, flexible, in control and eased my mind by taking such great care of him.”
About: I have experience in taking care of both senior and younger cats and dogs, and I genuinely love to care for animals! I love hiking so if you have a pet that needs more exercise I would be glad to take them on long walks. I also love to cuddle with pets so your animal would get lots of attention! I am starting my final semester at the end of August, so until then I am free at almost all hours of the day, and once school starts I have a lighter class schedule so I would be available for your pets in both the mornings and afternoons. I really do love animals so I am able to give them lots of attention, take them out for bathroom trips or long walks to tire them out, and also feed them when needed!
“Benji was amazing with our three pups for a last minute booking. He is communicative with frequent updates and attentive to the pups’ needs. We were so relieved he showed up for our fur family!”
About: I have two big labs of my own and love caring for dogs! I’m open to any type of dog (big, small, loud, quiet, shy…) I am a student at CU, so I work around classes for pet care. Please send me a request and I will do my best to be there! I offer walking, drop in visits, and pet sitting. I can either have your dogs at my house when you need them out of yours (preferred), or am happy to come over to sit them. I do walks as well, from 30 minutes to an hour. I can walk them locally or take them to trials- whatever you prefer! Your dogs will always have water and be ready to rest up after our walks!
About: I’ve worked at my mom’s grooming shop in Evergreen (soggy dog) every summer for the last 4 years, while petsitting for a lot of the dogs in my neighborhood. Personally, I have an elderly dachshund and a standard poodle puppy, so I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. It’d be a pleasure to take care of your pets! I’m currently a student at CU, but my schedule is pretty flexible. Inquire about what days I’m needed, and I can work with you! I can’t offer my own in-home services due to my college living situation, but I am obviously willing to take care of your pets in your own home. I have a car so I can arrive fast in case of emergency, and venture far if needed.

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.
