“We love having Krista check in on our little Millie. You can tell when Millie's happy to see someone, when she brings one of her toys or bones to them, wagging her tail. Millie loves seeing her. Thank you Krista for everything you do for Millie.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and have always loved being around animals. I’ve cared for pets of different ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to older pets that need a little extra patience. I’m reliable, attentive, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of love, exercise, and care while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I do my best to keep my availability updated and will always communicate clearly about scheduling. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive reliable, loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and routines to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. I’ll treat your home with respect, send updates and photos during visits, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, love, and care while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Emily, a passionate dog lover with experience caring for pups of all kinds, including special needs dogs and those with behavioral challenges. I’m currently completing a dog training certification and am excited to combine my knowledge with hands on care to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. At my home, dogs have plenty of space to relax and play. I have a large fenced backyard for outdoor fun and a dedicated dog room that doubles as an indoor enrichment and play area. For downtime or when I’m at work, dogs can rest comfortably in a 4x6 kennel within the dog room. My schedule follows a school calendar, so I’m home by 2:30 PM and off during the summer, perfect for lots of walks, playtime, and attention! Whether your dog needs a calm environment, extra enrichment, or some guidance with tricky behaviors, I’d love to provide a safe and loving home away from home. I follow a school schedule, so I’m home by 2:30 PM on weekdays and off during the summer. This allows me to provide plenty of walks, playtime, and enrichment for dogs, or quiet attention and care for cats. While I’m at work, dogs have a comfortable 4x6 kennel in a dedicated dog room, and the room doubles as an indoor play and enrichment space when the weather isn’t ideal. I can accommodate any requests that a client may have regarding their pets care. I always ensure to care for their pets as I would my own. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate as much time as needed to my clients.

About: I am an Art grad student and currently working on my thesis at home. I have a 3 years old dog named Mischa, who is the best part of my life. I will provide everything for your dogs, the same as I provide for my dog. He is 90lb, so I am pretty okay with the huge dogs, when I take care of them I take them to a walk at least twice a day, pulse plays with them at home. If the owner is okay I would love to take them to the dog park with my dogs. I provide the same environments for your dogs when you are not around for a short time. I hope I get a chance to meet your dog. Thanks, Safa

About: I am an animal lover! I have a dog named piper she's a small little angel and my life hasn't been the same since I've had her. I want people to feel comfortable leaving their furry bundles of love with someone who can love and protect them! I take the dogs I am watching to the dog park at my apartment where they can run and play. Also, if interested I can bathe your dog before he or she comes home. Your dog will have a blast with many toys and walks and naps on the couch! I am a currently not working so I’ll be at home all day with my fur babies and hopefully yours. I have a very flexible schedule I always keep the dogs I am watching on a leash unless it is a fenced backyard. I’m always paying attention and capturing cute moments.

About: Often families are surprised because their pets naturally bond with me, this is why my family calls me a animal whisperer. I have been caring for animals for most of my life and even worked for a veterinarian for two years. I work full time during the day, so pet care is my evenings-and-weekends joy — available weekdays after 4pm, weekends all day, and for overnight house sits. I mostly house sit and dog walk, and I can also offer bathing and unlimited belly rubs! I'm comfortable with most dogs, but I do require a meet & greet first to determine the fit. And it's not just dogs and cats — hamsters, reptiles, and exotic pets are welcome too, just message me to inquire first so we can talk through their routine. I have taken care of animals with allergies and behavior issues without any problems. I can follow directions that you may have for your pet.

Mckeenze took excellent care of my 4 indoor cats while I was away for 5 days. One takes medications and she administered those. Cleaned the litter boxes and did everything on the long list I gave her. Gave me updates everyday. Also she noticed my barn cats were congregating around our entrance door. I asked her to check the outside pans and they were empty. She fed them. I had another person taking care of all the barn animals and apparently he forgot. I would definitely have her come back.

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 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.

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 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.
