“Kathy W was one of the nicest, caring people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Her promptness and obvious caring for my MewMew was truly reassuring and put me at ease. The daily pictures and updates were greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs pet care. She is truly an asset and wonderful representative of rover.com. Thank you so much.”
“We had a great experience with Andrea. She was incredibly thorough, detail-oriented, and clearly took the time to make sure everything was handled exactly how we like it. Most importantly, Suma really enjoyed her and had a great time playing. She was always prompt and communicative, sending lots of updates, photos, and messages during her visits—which I know many pet owners will really appreciate. You can tell she genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort. She’s newer to Rover, but you wouldn’t know it from the level of care and professionalism she brings. We’d absolutely book her again!”
“Megan was able to come early morning to make sure my oldest cat had her meds put into her morning food. All my cats were in their normal routine when I came home. Communication was good while I was gone letting me know what was going on.”
“Sandy was hired for a full week to do drop ins for my girl Kitty and she was there everyday and on time. She spend the full 30 minutes with Kitty, some days even a little longer. She made sure Kitty had all her food and water she needed and she gave her lots of lovin and even got Kitty to play (she never plays anymore). I will absolutely hire Sandy in the future”
“Ingrid was EXCEPTIONAL! Right from the meet & greet start. She responded immediately, made it convenient for us, and was so in tune & caring. She didn't extend her stay, she took care of business, friendly & open. She truly went above her duties during her check-ins. She cleaned up after our 2 cats in ways I never asked for n when we got home everything I thought I'd have to do right away was done!!! Cats, even our bashful one, enjoyed her visits & attention so much.....they didn't seem mad at us when we got home. This was a first! Thank you Ingrid, and welcome to the family. You are a sweetheart”
“This was our first time using Rover and we feel so lucky to have found Bonnie! She was very responsive to our frequent communication - answering questions, understanding when we needed to make a schedule change, and sharing updates and photos during her visits. Most importantly, she gave care and attention to our beloved Kiwi and for that we're very grateful! We highly recommend Bonnie and will definitely use her again.”
“Lenetta is very caring and wonderful with cats. We came home from vacation to see two very happy and relaxed kitties because of her wonderful care. Lenetta is prompt and reliable and I highly recommend her services.”
About: Hi! My name is Cheyenne and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I've cared for all sorts of pets over the years including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, turtles, fish, lizards, hamsters, birds, etc. I currently own three dogs, two cats and one bunny rabbit. I am very comfortable with pets of all shapes and sizes. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else's care, and I'll treat your pets like they're my own. Whether they need walks, playtime, feeding, snuggles or medication, I'm your girl! I am patient, attentive, caring and trustworthy and my goal is to make sure that your pets are safe, happy and comfortable while you are away. I have a full-time job where I work from 9a-5p in Hernando County. I am available anytime before or after that. Sundays and Mondays, I am completely free and available. I will work your pets into my schedule however I can. Typically, if a drop-in visit is needed Tues-Sat on my workdays, I would do one visit in the early morning and one in the evening. Sundays and Mondays, I can do between 3 and 4 drop-in visits if needed. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat them as if they were my own while also following and respecting the routine set by their parents. Depending on what is requested, I can provide fresh food and water for your pets, walks, snuggles, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and affection. I'm respectful of your pets' space and it's very important to me that they are comfortable. I am also happy to send updates and photos so you can see how your pets are doing while you're away.

Also, i have a lot of free time so ill be able to stay with your pet overnight, or even just visit and do potty breaks, and even walk your dogs. Once I start doing these, my days will be filled with more Pets and Pet care which i enjoy. I would care for pets in my clients home by making sure they are fed per instructions. I will walk your dog every 2-4 hours to use the potty and I'll make sure to clean their poop afterwards. I would also provide the dog with water, especially after walks if your pet is thirsty. If you usually give your pet a treat after using the bathroom, i will make sure to give them a treat. If your pet has an accident in your house, then i will make sure to clean it up. If you have any special requests for your pet, i will make sure to complete them. I will also spend time with your dog so that they are comfortable and happy while you are away.

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 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.

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 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 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.
