“Madison did an amazing job with my hot Shadow. He can be difficult and anxious with new people but he took to Madison very well. I will be watching sing her again for my pup .”
“I asked Casandra if she could do a last minute stop in for my pups and she was thankfully available and so kind to do so even though she had other bookings. So glad she was able to take care of my girls. Couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: I've been responsible for an animal since I turned old enough to fill up a bowl of kibble. My mom is a veterinarian and taught me how to make sure critters of all kinds were well cared for. Im currently continuing my education part-time, mornings from 9am to 2pm. Before and after class I try to be as active as possible, and it would be a pleasure to fit your pet's care into that time! I can provide either efficient in/out cleaning and feeding, or spend more quality time with your pet to ensure they're exercised and happy while youre away. For walking service, I'll happily plan a route that fits your pet's stamina and breed, or you can suggest one that you regularly follow!
“Laila was amazing! She guaranteed us a stress free trip, handling issues as they arose to ensure our babies were cared for as well as if we were there. We loved the daily pictures and updates. I will 100% request her for all our future trips! Thank you Laila!!”
“Vincent took amazing care of Bentley! I needed someone to stop by to let my puppy out and he had so much fun with Vincent! If you need someone to watch your dog Vincent is the perfect guy!”
“isabel was so kind and patient with my dogs, especially my reactive chihuahua. she’s also very trustworthy and flexible to work with. i will continue to book her as long as she’s available! thank you.”
“Abigail has been an absolute blessing to our family! She comes by twice a day to care for our two puppies, Dodi and Libi, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, and (just as importantly) have time to play and burn off some puppy energy. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals. She’s patient, attentive, and goes above and beyond what’s expected. In fact, she’s even taught Dodi and Libi how to “shake a paw,” which was such a fun surprise! What has impressed me just as much is how kind she is to our cats. She has taken the time to get to know them, and it’s clear they trust and enjoy her company. Knowing that all of our pets are receiving not only excellent care but also affection and attention has made a world of difference. Because of Abigail, I can go into the office with complete peace of mind, knowing my animals are safe, happy, and well cared for. That kind of trust is invaluable. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, communicative, and truly treats your pets like family, I recommend Abigail without hesitation. We are incredibly grateful for everything she does and look forward to continuing to work with her!”
“Tyler was awesome. So reliable and a God send when our difficult American bulldog didn’t seem to charm any potential dog walkers. Tyler was so confident with him that he fell in love with her. Will definitely be using Tyler again.”
“Jessica was amazing to work with. We had a last minute get away and we were nervous about what the dogs would do while we weee gone. Jessica was kind enough to come meet the dogs with us home before we left. Within seconds it was easy to see how she loves animals and our dogs were at complete ease with her. We also had no concerns letting her into our home to play with the dogs while we were away. She had a very flexible schedule and was on time and punctual morning, afternoon or at night. She will be our go to dog helper and she should be yours too.”
About: **About me** I love all animals...haven't ever met a furry, feathered or scaly friend that I didn't get along with. I currently work full time at a veterinary clinic in Frisco and have been working in the Vet Med field for over 6 years, but taking care of all types of babies for over 20 years. I would love the chance to care for your “kids” while you are away or just give them some extra attention during the day if you are working long hours. I have experience with administering medication for dogs and cats, senior and/or puppy & kitten care and other special needs such as anxiety or stress. **About my home/services** Currently, I'm unable to offer in home service at my home. But, I would be more then happy to come to your home for check-ins or to stay overnight if needed. I would also enjoy taking your pup out for some much needed playtime or if you need pickup/drop off service, I can assist with that as well. **About my neighborhood** I live in a great neighborhood with several parks, sidewalks that will provide safe walking for us and a nearby lake which all make for great playtime and fun adventures. **What to expect** While your baby is in my care; they will enjoy walks, we can throw the ball, and of course plenty of cuddles. I can also provide extra special care for the senior dogs/cats or any pet with special needs, I have plenty of experience in that area. I will provide daily updates filled with plenty of photos. **Special rules or requests** I enjoy spending time with pets of all shapes and sizes. I do not have a preference with size or breed....dogs, cats, rodent, birds, fish, reptiles, etc. I will love them all the same! I currently work full-time at a vet clinic, but I would love to try to fit your babies into my schedule. I can do drop ins before and after work and I’m available to stay with them at night, as well as spend extra time on my days off. I have a large safe fenced in yard, but I would prefer to care for your baby at your home where they are more comfortable.
“Emily was extremely professional, attentive and went above and beyond to take care of my lab for several days when I was out of town. She was very flexible with her timings and took my lab on more walks without me even asking, she followed instructions to the dot and was great with providing medications, ear cleaning and full bath/grooming. Would definitely trust her to take care of my lab again.”

“Excellent service from Lindsay! She treated our furbabies like her own and our house like her own. She was very kind and pleasant to work with. I really appreciated the card notes she left along with the photos! Will definitely rebook with again :)”
“Alyssa is the best! She took care of our 70 pound male GSP who has a lot of energy for 8 full days. We had great communication with Alyssa and she sent pictures during the time we were away. This was our first time using a sitter for that long of a time so we were somewhat worried but Alyssa made us feel very comfortable. We definitely recommend Alyssa and will use her services in the future. Thanks Alyssa!!!”
“Very accommodating and took amazing care of my cat. For a cat with separation anxiety and will pee on things when left alone too long as well as scream at you when you come back home, she was pretty calm and very happy upon my arrival. Thank you so much Isabel!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lincoln Park
Breanna was amazing! My kitties absolutely loved her and she took such great care of them! She was super communicative and even brought in our cat food when it got delivered even though I didn’t ask her to! She was super nice and helpful and I will definitely be booking with her again.
Jaleeya was an absolute life saver! This is my first time leaving my kitties home without me and she made me feel so comfortable. She gave excellent care and updates at every visit. She treated my kitties like they were her own and they warmed up to her super fast and she became part of the pack! If I ever choose to leave again and need a helping hand I definitely am contacting Jaleeya!
Mikayla has been absolutely amazing to my pup and me! I was so nervous to leave my senior girl but Mikayla understands her complex needs and does exactly what is asked of her. She’s very thoughtful and spent time playing with my her and gave her plenty of pets! My other VERY people selective dog took to her immediately, and my youngest dog thinks Mikayla hung the moon! Instant besties with all three of my pups! Her check-ins and pictures give me peace of mind while I’m away! Appreciate all she does for us!

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.
