“From my first conversation with Rachael I knew she would be a great fit to help with daily drop-ins for my 5 month old, energetic Goldendoodle. She asked questions to get to know our routine, more about Monty and what I needed help with prior to our first meeting. Since he’s a pup, a routine has been helpful with potty and crate training and Rachael has helped keep it consistent. In a few weeks Monty will be staying overnight and I already know he will be so well cared for. Highly recommend her :)”
“Charla was terrific! So very helpful and a great communicator, and super flexible when my plans changed. Pets were well taken care of and everything left tidy. I am grateful!”
“Morgan is an excellent cat sitter. Our cat loves her. Morgan kept up great communication with us while we were away, and we felt very comfortable having her in our home while gone.”
“Sharon was wonderful with Tony and Dude! She came beforehand to meet them and put me at ease right away. Her communication throughout my trip was detailed and I loved getting the photos of my boys looking healthy and happy. I will definitely be rebooking Sharon next time I travel!”
“Jessica is wonderful. She kept my doggie happy and was able to deal with me travel delays due to the Southwest Airlines Christmas 2022 Meltdown. She gave wonderful updates with many pictures. She was very responsive to my message. A true professional and a fantastic sitter!!!”
“I can not overstate how awesome Shannon is! She was incredibly kind and easy to work with and was wonderful with my pug, Clementine and her needs. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone who hopes to have their baby in good hands.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my cat Bam Bam while I was away! She was incredibly reliable, friendly, and made sure he got all of his medication on time, which gave me such peace of mind. She took the time to check in, send updates, and make sure he was comfortable. I could tell she genuinely cared about him, and that made all the difference. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Bam Bam!”
“Romy was so great. I cannot recommend enough. She took the booking last minute and was fantastic with little Suki Suki seem to love Romy, which is super rare, but I watched on the camera and was so surprised how quick she took to Romy.”
About: Hello! My name is Sofia and I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter living in a house with no pets and a big fenced backyard, which allows pets space to play, relax, and feel at home!! 🏡🐾 My entire life I have loved all kinds of animals and I believe dogs are angels on Earth 😇 My current schedule allows me to have more time to care for all your sweet pets and flexibility to match your needs . I have completed CPR dog/cat training credited by American Red Cross to relieve any worries about your pets safety. I have a lot of experience with different breeds , have cared for my own pets and I am the designated family pet sitter/dog whisperer 🤭 . I have raised 2 Jack Russell terriers from their puppy days to their final senior moments. I’m very familiar with dogs that need stimulation & consistent attention. I have also owned a reactive Pitbull, which taught me how to stay calm, observant, and proactive in managing behavior & high stress situations. It also taught me how to handle larger sized dogs that are very strong 🦮 he was a good 120 pounds 😆💪 I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs — whether that’s exercise, quiet companionship, or extra patience. Most of all, I genuinely love animals and caring for them brightens every one of my days ❤️ i understand that pets are FAMILY. I will cuddle with them all night if i can 😂🫶 You’ll receive consistent updates (photos AND videos) so you can feel confident & at ease while you’re away ✈️🐕📸 Right now I am operating on a part time schedule for Rover and try to update my calendar as much as i can. I’m available for walks or drop-ins, and certain days I am available for daycare/boarding too. I live in a house with a very big spacious backyard that is perfect for pets to play, relax, and explore! Pets will always be supervised and clients will always receive updates, photos, and videos. Your pet will be entertained and in a house full of love!! ❤️
About: I'm the person some of us have in the friend group who during a gathering, suddenly vanishes and is probably hanging out with the dog or cat somewhere. I’m working part-time while studying data analytics. I have a flexible schedule with the free time to drop by and feed, walk, and play with fur babies. Safety for your pet, and providing you with peace of mind is my absolute priority. I provide drop-ins, following their regular schedule for food and water, and walks following schedule as well.
About: I’ve had all kinds of peta all my 57 years of life’ and promise to treat them with love and care like they were my own. I am taking care of animals full time with the exception of an occasional housekeeping client here and there. I can be available for your babies whenever you need me. I prefer to watch your babies in their own home so they feel most comfortable with their smells and toys. I believe this is far less stressful for them.
“Aleksandra was great! Always on time, which is important for me, because I have a diabetic cat who needs insulin twice a day. She was able to give him his injections without any problems! Highly recommend!”
“Cathryn was amazing! We took a trip overseas and felt completely relaxed the entire time she was caring for our cats. Morty can be picky and it is obvious when we come back from a trip and he’s been stressed out, for the first time his temperament was relaxed and he settled back in routine fast. Photos and updates were great throughout the trip.”
About: When I was younger I was taking care of 2 adorable dogs as well as 2 wonderful cats. Now my mother runs a awesome pet care service that I partake in on my off time and I'm ready to help others in different areas that she doesn't offer in. I'm currently working full time as a lifeguard but I can always watch your fur babies at night or on my off days, as well as do check ins and walks, or whatever you may need. It is completely depending on the clients needs, I prefer specific instructions on a pets routine but if that isn't something you can give me I will revert back to 2 daily walks, maybe 3, and being fed 2 times a day.
“Erin did a fantastic job checking in on my two cats while I was on vacation! She had great communication, and I felt reassured that my cats were fed and happy and doing well. She even went above and beyond what I asked for by ensuring their area was cleaned and that they played with their toys and she sent me pictures of them, which reassured me they were doing fine while I was out of town. Would definitely have her back if needed in the future!”
About: I always make sure that when new dogs come in they feel comfortable and safe first while their loved ones are gone. While they’re gone make sure they have their exercise and clean. Also like to teach them some new skills. Being an entrepreneur fits perfectly while building my business. I love to help others now it’s time for me to get back into helping dog I always loved them. They connect with me and I’ve connected with them so well. My main focus is always on the pets. Help on what they need and want. Also what the clients need I will make sure their pets have!

Jessica is an amazing pet caretaker and pet companion, my cat Peekers absolutely loves his visits with her. He is so excited for her visits he greats her at the door like a puppy lol. I highly recommend Jessica for both short and long term visits, she is extremely trustworthy, timely and affectionate and loving with my Cat. She is extremely thoughtful and detailed in her work. My husband and I travel with complete peace of mind with Jessica checking in on our beloved cat! Thanks Jessica!
Couldn't be happier with the level of service Larrisa provided 10 stars. On time as booked, pictures sent of my happy lad, description of walk and behavior after walk (wasn't asked for but provided) Nelson seemed super happy when I arrived at home . Definitely booking again !!!
Stephanie was absolutely wonderful! She showed up right on time every single day and left such thoughtful, detailed notes after each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated that she took the time to play with my cats and give them plenty of attention rather than just stopping by for the basics. I came home to two very happy, well-cared-for cats. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would book with Stephanie again without hesitation. Highly recommend!
Debi was great , and we were really grateful she was willing to be available when we needed someone quickly. She took cute pics, played w/ Gia, and went the extra mile, hiding treats in Gia’s tower, and freezing some Churu in her slow feeder to help keep her occupied! Debi’s service was very much appreciated
Georgette is a great cat sitter and a wonderful person. Our cat fell in love with her. Georgette took great care of him, fed him, played with him and cleaned up after him. Georgette kept in touch and sent great pictures. She is reliable and trustworthy. Top notch!

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 .

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.
