“Cindy helped us through a very complicated time. It was her first time sitting rabbits (we have two) and she was going to just be doing daily drop-ins with them. While we were out of town, the Hawk fire evacuated our home and she took the bunnies into her home until the evacuation was lifted. We are so grateful for her and her families support and flexibility. Thank you Cindy!”


“We love Natalie’s thorough updates and tons of pictures. Our very shy cat even was walking around at Natalie’s visit this time, which shows she’s becoming comfortable around Natalie. Thank you!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and current cat parent who would be happy to give your pets some extra love and attention while you’re away. I grew up with dogs ranging from small to large, so I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m happy to take a well-trained dog for a walk, stop by for meals and fresh water, provide bathroom breaks, and make sure they get some companionship and attention while you’re gone. I also have experience living with a cat and would love to care for your feline friends as well. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, and am especially happy to help with adult or senior pets who appreciate a little extra patience and a relaxed approach. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets are safe, comfortable and cared for- and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and see if I’m a good feel for your pet-care needs! I work full-time Monday-Friday in Carson, but let care fits nicely into my routine. If in Carson City, I can check in with pets on my lunch. Otherwise I am available for visits before or after work, evenings and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely and provide dependable, respectful care in their familiar environment. Because I have a cat of my own, I don’t board pets in my home but I’m happy to care for them in yours, where they can stay comfortable in their own space and routine.
About: I am a caretaker! I'm closing my 36 year home based childcare. I LOVE the big puppies. My boy was 140lbs. passed 10/2024. I can be your puppy Grandma! (All dogs are puppies at heart) I have worked from home for over 36 years and plan to keep at home! I am moving from children to dogs. Spending every Summer on my Grandparents farm was heaven, lots of work, done with so much respect for the hours and lifestyle. I moved back to Hidden Valley to care for my parents and raise my kids. They are all gone and I am looking for a new direction, while tending my garden and remodeling. I have never been without a dog (dogs). My children are all in different States so, giving and getting my dog love fix vis sitting is the direction I'm heading as opposed to owning for now! I have always loved my pets more than any couch, so, furniture will be all access. How I will care for your pet will be up to you! 1/2 Acre fully fenced, 110 tree's, small grass area, DG to dig in. 24 years here and all of my dogs (passed) loved it. I have had 36 years of open communication with child parents and I will do the same for puppy parents. We should be cohesive and symbiotic. I left dry food out for my dogs, however, your dog your rules! Hidden Valley dog park is less than a mile from my home. My Livestock Guardian dog did not like the dog park so if yours does not I am totally ok going or not going! The Virginia Range is behind me and easily accessible for short hikes.
“Our dogs always love their visits from Shelby. We have weekly drop in visits and she has taken care of our dogs while we are out of town. She’s great at communicating and providing updates and pictures. I love knowing our dogs are with someone who cares about them just as much as me. I would highly recommend her!!!”

About: My sister relied on me to house sit and watch her dogs for a couple of weeks every summer when I was in middle and high school. I grew up with dogs and was responsible for taking them on walks, feeding them, brushing them, bathing them, and playing with them. I am between jobs so I am quite flexible right now. I am looking to get a full-time position at which point I will update my schedule here. My cats are feral rescues so I cannot afford to bring any other animals into my home, but I am very cautious while going on walks to be very aware of other dogs (especially off leash), people driving too fast in residential areas, and making sure to bring adequate water for walks on warm days.

“Kate was amazing and took such great care of our furry family member. It was our first time leaving him for such a long period of time, but because of Kate, he did awesome. We will definitely be looking to have Kate watch him again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Carlee- a wife, mom, and animal lover! Our family has a one year old Golden Retriever named Sonny, who keeps us active, entertained, and smiling every day. I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. As we all know, they’re not “just pets”, they’re family. My goal is to give your pets the same love, patience, and attention I’d want someone to give Sonny. I currently offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and over night stays in the comfort of your pets own home. Whether they need a good walk, some playtime, a potty break, or simply some company and cuddles, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for! I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely excited to spend time with your pets. I’d love to get to know them, learn their routines and personalities, and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away 🤎🐶🐈 I’m a mom with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and lots of attention throughout the week. I love getting outside for walks and making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel secure and cared for. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, feeding, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll treat your pets like part of my own family.

About: I have always owned a pet of some sort, from dogs and cats to turtles and snails. I’m not afraid of any animal and I will treat them with the love and the care that you would want someone to treat a child. I do believe pets need authoritative speech but they will always be taught with respect. I am dedicating the first half of my day to volunteer work in our area and the second half is to take care of your pets. When I am with your pet I will be present, playing with them if they are younger and need to exercise their body or lightly encouraging movement if they are older. Essentially, when they are in my care they will have all of their needs met. I thank you for trusting me in the confines of your home. My one and only focus will be to take care of your pets. If possible I would like to spending time with them outside as it is important for them to experience their play in the sun.
About: I have been a dog owner of multiple dogs my whole life, and look forward to supporting your family. I also work as a birth and postpartum Doula, where I meet lots of pet friends, and assist with their care. I am currently working part time for rover, my availability is mostly during the day on weekdays, with some nights and weekend availability. My schedule is quite flexible and I'm open to flexible scheduling. Let me know what you need I live about five minutes from the Sparks Marina and Smiths by Van Meter Park. I have a fully fenced yard, and am an active hiker, ready to take your pup for a stroll!
“She took care of feeding our guinea pigs while we were traveling. She was very kind and sent us photos every day, and we really appreciated it. If we’re ever away again, we would love to ask for her help. Thank you so much, Danika! 😄✨”

“Kinan regularly checks in with my pup and is always consistent and reliable. Definitely safe to say my dog has a new friend, very relieving to be able to trust Kinan with my guy!”

“Nina continues to bring quality care for our puppy over the past several months. She is clear and consistent in her interactions with our young dog. Another bonus is Nina’s detailed write ups from visits; these specific notes have helped guide us in how we work with our pup. Thank you, Nina!!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for the past 10 years and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs.

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.
