“Kristina was awesome and went above and beyond! She cared for each of my dogs individually, one is very elderly and the other very energetic. She provided thoughtful updates and cute pics. Will definitely be calling her again!”

“Once again Denise took care of my cats while I was on my annual trip to visit relatives in Nebraska. Denise has a great memory and remembered how to do everything to properly care for my cats. I had no concerns whatsoever. Thank you, Denise!”

“My very shy German Shepherd loves Tiffany. She is calm, gentle, and really knows how to approach dogs, even shy ones like Ernie. He always gives her kisses. She's also quite knowledgeable about training and gave me some great tips. She has visited multiple times and I will keep calling on her!”


“Madelyn and her husband were wonderful with watching our dogs. I have a very particular German shepherd and they really accommodated her behavior. I have another dog that needs daily medications and sometimes they are not the easiest to give her but they made sure she received them every day. They kept me updated and sent lots of cute photos. Thank you so much Madelyn and Barrett, yall are the best!”

“Allina is so kind and she was very gentle with Hager my little old man! I will definitely be using her more in the future I felt very comfortable and at ease knowing she was looking in on him while I was gone for the day.💚”

“Stacey was excellent in every aspect during her drop in visits with our three dogs and cats. She kept a very close eye on a skin irritation that had developed on one our dogs and she updated us with pics daily. She was truly concerned with the health of our pets. We could not recommend her more. She is fantastic.”

About: From growing up with my childhood dog, and multiple dogs at my grandmothers house, I’ve had experience with dogs since a very young age. I currently have three sweethearts. An American cocker spaniel, a rescue pup, and a rescue kitten. I have watched countless friends dogs and cats as well, and will never say no. I’m absolutely in love with any and all kinds of animals. Your babies will be treated just like mine! Just like family🩷! I currently am self employed and pick my own schedule. I usually work early am around 3 am to around 8 am. My evening shifts are around 3-4 hours long as well. My schedule is always available to be changed for your pet needs. All care instructions will be followed. Pets are also allowed on the furniture, and crates are also available. Daily play and walks are also provided
“Amazing with the dogs, one of which is a rescue that is super shy with people. Accommodated last minute requests, great communication. Will definitely have her sit for us again.”


About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life and caring for animals is something I truly love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, supporting mobility challenges, and providing a calm, patient environment. I know how important consistency and gentle care are, especially for pets who need a little extra attention. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved every step of the way. I currently have cats of my own but they are used to other pets in the home, including dogs. Additionally, I offer complimentary meet and greets prior to petting your pet, to see if it’s a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is flexible, so I’m able to interact with and love on your fur baby all day. I can also pick up and drop off your little one if need be. I do have a few cats of my own, so if you have a kitty needing care, it may be best for me to care for them in their own environment. My cats are used to other pets though, including dogs, so they are more than welcome in my home. I also have a fenced-in yard with a lot of room for your dog to run around and live in a neighborhood conducive to walks.
“Jordan was absolutely amazing! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous at first, but Jordan went out of her way to make us feel comfortable from the very beginning. She offered to meet our dogs before we left, which really helped make us feel better and was so attentive and reliable throughout the entire stay. She was also super patient with our very energetic Labrador- she worked super well with her! She kept us updated with messages and lots of photos, which we really appreciated. She even offered to walk our dogs and check in on them extra when she didn’t have to. We will absolutely be reaching out to her for any future pet-sitting needs and absolutely recommend her to anyone! Thank you Jordan!”

About: I grew up with high-energy large hunting dogs. My own dog passed away this past Fall, but I love to give affection and care to other’s furry friends. Whether your dog needs to be walked 10 miles a day or is just a couch potato, I’ve got you covered! I currently work part time as a Tax Preparer and rarely have shifts for more than 4 hrs. Please let me know your dog’s needs and I’ll be happy to discuss the dates you are requesting! Lots of love for your furry friend, I’m great at keeping a schedule, and keeping all house rules/cleanliness. Ask me anything, I’m happy to accommodate!
About: I genuinely love animals and am happy to carr for yours like they are my own. Lots of love, snuggles and and playtime. I've had several senior pets and am confident in caring for them and have raised dogs from puppies and am comfortable caring for them as well. I work from home and can work from anywhere so pet sitting works well with my schedule. There are only a few days a week where I have meetings at a particular time, otherwise I can work around the pet needs. Lq I care for pets by creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that keeps normal routines as consistent as possible. I follow each pets feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully and make sure doors, and gates are secure. Building trust is very important to me. I take time to get to know each pet's personality, respect their boundaries, and provide plenty of patience, , attention, and positive interaction. I also keep the home clean and tidy, properly clean up after pets, and watch for any changes in their behavior, appetite and overall well-being.
About: I have grown up taking care of cats and dogs, and have a personal interest in animal behavior! In the middle of my psychology undergraduate degree, I take my work and compassion very seriously. And as a mother of 3 fur babies, I can assure the upmost amount of care from my end! I have plenty of time for your pet(s)! I am available 5 days out of the week, and am committed to making sure every minute is worth it for them and you! I am able to transport your pet to cooler and comfortable locations they may enjoy, or always stay in your neighborhood! I also accommodate to different communication methods and requests for your comfortability.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for everything from tiny Chihuahuas to gentle Great Pyrenees, raised puppies from birth, loved senior dogs through their golden years, and cared for rescue dogs with unique personalities and needs. My own family includes four spoiled pups: a 12-year-old Chihuahua, a 12-year-old rescue, and two playful French Bulldog puppies who keep me on my toes every day. They are my babies, and I know that’s exactly how you feel about yours. I understand that hiring a sitter means trusting someone with a member of your family. I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll treat your pet with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own, while respecting their routine, personality, and all the little things that help them feel happy and secure. I am taking the summer off before returning to school three days a week this fall. That means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. My own daily routine already revolves around caring for my two dogs, so adding walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or overnight care fits naturally into my day. I carefully plan my schedule so every pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve rather than feeling rushed between appointments. I treat every pet as if they were my own: with patience, kindness, and respect for their individual personalities and routines. I know that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. Whether that’s medication, feeding schedules, favorite walking routes, or bedtime routines, I believe consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to details, keep a clean environment, and always prioritize your pet’s safety. You’ll also receive regular photo updates and messages so you can relax knowing your furbaby is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve grown up with animals all of my life, and I understand the importance of taking good care of our furry friends! I have dog sat for several neighbors and friends over the last few years, which has given me lots of experience with many dogs and their different personalities! Being a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of spending quality time with your pet whether that be playing fetch, going outside, or just getting some pets. I can assure you your pet will be taken care of well if you book me as your rover pet sitter! It is usually not a problem for me to make changes to my weekly schedule so I can be available for petsitting. For dog walking and drop in visits I can stop by first thing in the morning, stop by again around lunch some days and then again in the evenings to spend some extra time with your pet. I am flexible with my schedule and hours for petsitting so if we can communicate and figure out a schedule together, that would work best for me! In my own home I care for my dog by taking feeding her, taking her on walks, and the occasional hike, swim, or time at the dog park. So these are all things I can do for your pet as well! I also enjoy hanging out on the couch with my dog at home so if that is more of your dog's style I am more than happy to do that!

Highly reliable and consistent! She came every single day for 16 days to check on our 2 shy cats and was great at communication. She even helped track one down when it was hiding in a cabinet and cleaned up a few things they knocked down and broke. Will definitely book again!

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.

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.
