“I appreciated Julianne’s rover cards with solid info in my kitty’s activity while I was away and she was always responsive if contacted. My girl is a shy one but Julianne got her to warm up a little towards the end which is a good sign for future trips! Also, Julianne was quite flexible with my meet and greet as I had to book her last minute. 11/10 recommend!”
“Alejandro was great with my American Staffordshire Terrier and very respectful and understanding of the breed. He is great at reading dogs body language and showing confidence and calmness. I recommend him to any dog owner”
About: Hi, I'm Alyssa — Your Pet’s New Best Friend! 🐶 🐱✨ Are you looking for a trustworthy, caring, and energetic pet sitter? Look no further! I love animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Whether your furry friend needs a walk in the park, cuddles on the couch, or just a fun day of play, I’m here to provide personalized, loving care. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I’m reliable, responsible, and attentive to every detail to ensure your furry friend feels comfortable and loved while you're away. Plus, I love sending updates and photos so you can relax knowing your floof is in good hands! Let's make your pet’s day extra special—contact me today to see how I can help! 🐾💖 I currently work full-time Monday through Friday 9-5 p.m. on Capitol Hill. Providing services through Rover after work and on weekends allows me to assist pet parents and enjoy time with their animals as well. I live in a safe neighborhood with a dog park and suburban area making walks easy. If you wish to have your pet crated, we can do that, however I allow pets to relax on the couch and even the bed - making your pet feel as comfortable as possible while missing you is my top priority. Please know there are no plants in my home that are harmful to animals, and all toxic chemicals (i.e. cleaning supplies, detergent, etc.) are safely stored away to ensure the best safety for your pet.
“Molly was absolutely amazing & took such great care of our cat Rosie while we were on vacation for a week. She came daily to play with her, refresh her water, clean litter box, & give her treats. We will definitely be using her again!!!”
“Taylor is fantastic! Taylor has been doing drop ins for my dogs and the pups have really enjoyed having Taylor come over and spend time with them! So grateful!”
“Tara brought Connor and Sterling out of their shells very quickly. They are normally quite shy around new people, but they took to her at once. I had special dental needs for them both and she made sure they were attended to. It's always good to come back to happy, well-fed cats, and that is exactly what Tara made happen.”
“Angie once again did a fantastic job keeping me and my family comfortable while we were an ocean away from our boy. The wonderfully shot pictures and frequent updates gave us total peace of mind”
“Gabriela was a great communicator throughout my experience on Rover. This was my first time using the platform and she was very informative. She took great care of my pet during my week long trip. I will plan to request her services in the future.”
“Scotty is amazing! He’s very prompt and communicative. You can tell he loves pets and understands the effort to put into them. Our dogs instantly gravitated towards him. We definitely plan to use him again and would definitely recommend his services.”
“Ann was thorough and shared thoughtful updates during each of her visits with my kitty. She clearly loves animals which made me feel confident that Max was well cared for. Thanks Ann!”
“Bethany was lovely and made our cat feel very loved and cared for! I've had times coming home when my cat was just desperate for human contact, but while he was definitely happy to see me, he wasn't as desperate and clingy as he's been before, so I know he was getting some extra attention. Bethany even brought our mail in when we had a late flight, which made a 2am arrival that much easier.”
About: Animals have genuinely been one of my greatest loves for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my dream was to become a zoologist (and possibly the next Jane Goodall!). That career path may not have happened, but my love for animals absolutely never went anywhere. I grew up caring for my childhood dog and later had the joy of spending 13 years caring for two cats of my own. Over the years, I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends when they’re out of town, making sure their pets are happy, comfortable and well cared for while their people are away. I’m truly an all-around animal lover — dogs, cats, wildlife, insects, you name it. If it has life, I probably have a soft spot for it. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your babies with the same patience, affection, attention and respect I’d want for my own. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, having a good cuddle session or just keeping each other company, my goal is for them to feel safe, comfortable and very loved. I work full-time during the week, so my pet-care availability is focused around my schedule. I’m available anytime on Saturdays and Sundays, Friday evenings after 5:30 p.m., and on Mondays during my lunch break, generally between 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. My Monday lunch time has some flexibility when arranged in advance. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, routines and any special preferences or boundaries. I also understand that every animal has their own personality, so I’m happy to give an energetic pet plenty of play and attention or give a shy pet the time and space they need to warm up to me. In your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your space with care and respect.
About: I provide patient, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, puppies learning routines, and senior pets who need extra care. I focus on safety, consistency, and making every walk or visit a calm and positive experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around walks and visits to ensure pets get consistent care, attention, and exercise throughout the day. I’m flexible during the week and make sure each pet receives reliable, unrushed care I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. In my client’s home, I respect their space and instructions while ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable. I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and constant supervision, and I always give pets plenty of attention and care

About: I have grown up with dogs since I was young. I have volunteered at Pet Rescue centers and I have dog walked and was a sitter for many people in my community. I want to become more active and dog walking will help. I love to play fetch, walk dogs and if they are down to cuddle we can do that too! I’m a huge Dog Lover and I will do my best to give your dog a fun and enjoyable time. I am pretty flexible in the evenings every day and I will be available during most weekends. This is something I love to do so please feel free to contact me and I would love to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently pretty flexible with my schedule. I work part-time from home and I have a morning routine but fairly flexible schedule during the daytime. I enjoy dog walking in the safer areas within the city with plenty of space for each of the dogs to roam, explore and play.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lincolnia
Erin was wonderful with my cat! She was attentive, followed all care instructions, and clearly has a great understanding of cat behavior. As any cat parent knows, not all sitters understand the importance of letting cats approach on their own terms, but Erin absolutely does. My cat warmed up to her very quickly, which says a lot! I highly recommend Erin and would happily book with her again.
I cannot recommend Hannah enough!! She went above and beyond for our pups! It was our first time having her watch the dogs and we will definitely be using her again. She made sure they were comfortable each visit and gave us plenty of pictures to see how they were doing. She gave detailed updates and even stayed longer to give them some extra loving. You will have peace of mind when she is watching your pets!!
This was my second time working with Alissa, and it went very smoothly. She always updates me on time and is very good to my cats. They were glad to have me home, but they were well cared for while I was gone a few days. I’ve already scheduled her for my next trip.
Natalie was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my shy cat, Robin. She was punctual, reliable, and communicated perfectly through the Rover app. Parents of shy cats know how stressful it can be to leave them, but Natalie was so patient and gentle that Robin actually came out to meet her by the very second visit! I didn't worry for a second. Loved the daily photos and updates. Highly recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a caring and attentive pet sitter.
When I had to add a day of travel unexpectedly, Julie was extremely flexible and made sure that my Layla still got the care she needed! It helps that Layla just LOVES getting pets and playing with Julie— I am so grateful for her and will continue to use her as often as I can!

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.
