“Our two cats do not get along. Despite their territorial spats, Patrick has somehow managed to get our trouble makers to play nice! I am astounded to come home from our trips to find the cats as best buddies. Our home is automated for food and water, but the mental stimulation from quality playtime is something you cannot simulate from a machine. According to our two cats, they give him 4 paws up! You can expect from Patrick a sitter that follows directions, thoughtful comments, excellent photos, and reliable availability. Thank you!”
“Kaya was SOOO amazing with our little senior man!! He can take a bit to warm up to people and she was so patient with him. She was such an attentive, communicative, and timely sitter - I would highly recommend her for drop ins and overnights!”
“Taylor was THE best cat sitter! I had never left my cat for 10 days so I was incredibly anxious about it (I’m a worrier, I know), but Taylor instantly made me feel relieved. He sent updates, pictures and videos of my cat. She is a picky/demanding cat, so it made me incredibly pleased that they got along and bonded just fine! Taylor let me know everything I needed to know about my cat sprinkles, how she was doing, acting and eating, he emptied the litter box, changed her water and food, and gave her lots of pets! Great communication, great pics and videos of my cat, the best experience all around. I would 100% recommend Taylor if you’re looking for a pet sitter of any kind!”
“Richard did a wonderful job on the drop-in visits. He proved himself to be a real neighbor, spending time with my senior dogs and making sure they eat their meals. When thunderstorms came through, knowing how jittery they get, he made sure they were safe and in the house until the storms blew through. Thank you, Richard! You helped out in so many ways, all the reviews I’ve read about you were all true! Looking forward to letting you take care of my girls the next time!”
About: I love dogs! They give me purpose. Recently, my 15-year-old furbaby, Missy, crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We went on daily walks, played treat puzzles, visited shops, and enjoyed an occasional pupaccino. I miss having a dog around the home. They are so much company. I love to take them for walks, play ball, etc. I have a small fenced area for small dogs and a large fenced area for the bigger dogs. Dogs make a house a home (mine or yours). When with me, your dogs will be in caring hands! Currently, I work part-time (3 days a week and can take dogs with me). So, I have plenty of time to play, walk, board, feed, and/or check-in on your dogs. At my home, I have a small fenced in area and larger screened-in area for your dogs. Your dogs will not be left alone when outside. I will always be there to watch them. Also, your dogs are allowed to make themselves comfortable on my furniture or dogs beds. If you prefer my services at your house, I will follow your instructions.
“Jessica was great with my two kitties! It’s obvious she loves animals. Even though I was kind of out of cell service for most of my trip, it was great to get the updates and pictures and videos of my babies and know that they were in good hands.”
About: I've been caring for and walking dogs for about 3 years.I am able to keep to a regular routine of walks, mealtimes, and general care. I currently work at home and have a flexible schedule. I can make it over for mealtimes/walks/ or general care at a time that is convenient for you and your furry family member so their schedule does not have to be so disrupted. I do not currently offer services in my home at the moment. But I can come to clients home. Everything will be done according to your specifications.
About: I have cared for my childhood dog since I was six years old and have a lifelong love for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I offer dog walking, overnight care, and pet-sitting services. Whether your furry friend enjoys a walk, a game of fetch, or simply extra love and attention, I will make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a part-time employee and a student at CSU, which gives me flexibility in my schedule to help care for your pet! I’m available for walks and boarding on weekends after 12 PM, as well as on Fridays and Mondays after 11 AM. I’m unable to care for pets in my own home, but I’m more than happy to come to your home and provide loving, reliable care. If there’s a park nearby, I’d love to take your dog for a fun walk, play fetch, or give them some extra exercise and attention. I’m also comfortable handling dogs that pull on the leash and will make sure they stay safe and secure.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and puppies, as well as care for them when they were kittens and puppies. I’ve been experienced with nursing and cleaning kittens and puppies. I’ve also learned how to check animals and check their physicals. I’m also experienced with administering medication and grooming. I’m a CSU student on summer break and definitely looking for animals to love. I’m also a substitute teacher on the side. I’m pretty open to scheduling, so please let me know! I have a private backyard with lots of space for dogs and cats to look around. It’s also closed off with side entrances. I also have ring cameras around my home to help monitor the areas. I do have a cat but I can separate her from any other pets. I would prefer for owners to include thier pets belongings as well as letting me know what they can and can’t eat.
About: Having been in the pet care industry for almost a decade, I've never met a pet I didn't love! I'm comfortable working dogs large and small, cats aloof and cranky, and friends furry, scaley, or feathery! I can't wait to meet yours! Caring for animals is my full-time job, so your pet will be my top priority! Most weekends I work part time at a doggy daycare, and weekdays I spend my time out and about walking pups around town! With enough notice I can accommodate most any schedule or care that your baby is used to! I live in an apartment complex that sits next to a gorgeous natural area, and provides a large fenced in grassy area for dogs to run off leash! My 2 kitties are very respectful of other creatures, and everyone is welcome on all the furniture! Whatever your pet is used to, I'll make sure it feels like home!
“I’ve used Leah’s services multiple times now, overnight stays, walks & drop ins. She has great follow-through…showing up when stated, communicates well, and always asks questions if I don’t clarify the details. I can trust her care for Rose, which makes for a less stressful elderly dog mom ❤️”
About: As a former Cheyenne Mountain Zoo Junior Zookeeper, animal care is no stranger. I have worked with a variety of animals, from exotic hippos to domestic Guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles. I have taken care of a lot of my families animals and raised budgies, Guinea pigs, turtles, lizards, and spiders. Now living away from my family I take care of my zebra finch and my friend’s dogs, like Koda a super cute Samoyed-Husky. I love to take her on walks, and would love to get outside with your pup as well! I’m Currently in school at CSU, so I can’t do many during the day work on MWF, but Tuesday and Thursday and weekends are open. I live in a busy house with birds, turtles, a moody husky, and 3 other people, and take care of the pets every day. I would be doing the same for your pet in your house and giving them a lot of love.
About: I have cared for pets of my own my whole life. We recently had to say goodbye to our pup, so I would love to be around dogs and help people with any dog-walking and/or dog- sitting needs. I work Monday through Friday, with flexibility to make frequent visits home from my office. My mornings and evenings are usually available for walks, as well as weekends. I have a fenced yard and a comfortable home for dogs of all sizes. I can easily crate pets if needed. My neighborhood has lots of great walking spaces and parks nearby.
“Coral was an amazing pet sitter for our anxious kitty. It can be difficult to find a sitter that our cat is comfortable with. During the meet and greet, our cat was already rubbing up against her legs and wanting to smell her! During drop-in visits, she made sure to take lots of pictures and send detailed notes, which I really appreciated. Coral also cleaned up the house a bit (took trash out, started dishwasher, etc.) before she left, which was such a thoughtful touch. We (and our kitty) would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Coral for your great work!”
“Dillon did a few drop in visits for my pups and was absolutely amazing! My German shepherd has never met him before the visits and he was a pro at getting her to warm up to him! He also played with them and adjusted to their different play styles. We will be contacting Dillon again for future visits! I highly recommend him!!”

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.
