About: Growing up, my family always had animals around. I have five brothers and sisters and we all had pets, from dogs to cows to fish. Now as an adult, I would love to care for your pets for you. I’m not afraid of loud, messy, big dogs but I can be very gentle with shy, sweet kitties and puppies. I’m patient and I have done lots of research on how a dog’s brain works. I can’t wait to take your pet on an adventure or maybe just a leisurely stroll! I’m a stay-at-home-wife so I have lots of free time to dedicate to your furry friend. I try to keep Sundays low-key but the rest of my week is wide-open! I have a sweet small dog and a silly cat who loves dogs but can easily defend herself and hide. I have a big backyard for your pets to play in, but don’t worry, I will never leave them unsupervised.
“If we could give Sarah a 10-star, we would!! She is incredible, sweet, thoughtful, reliable, and very good at communicating with us what’s going on with our puppy! We were hesitant at first having a complete stranger coming to our house, taking care of our puppy. However, after meeting Sarah and especially after the first day, we feel completely relieved that we found a great “daycare teacher” for our “baby”! So thankful to find her on Rover! We love you Sarah! ❤️❤️❤️”

“This was my 1st time using Rover, so I was alittle nervous about leaving my babies at the house with an unfamiliar person while we were out of town. I found Kaylani on the Rover site & she was able to schedule a meet & greet with me a few weeks in advance. After meeting her & seeing how she interacted with my babies, I felt reassured that she was going to be a great fit. I was right, Kaylani did a great job, she followed the instructions I left & made my out of town trip feel less stressful for me & my babies.”
“Anna is fantastic!! She treated Thor (our cat) like he was her own. She gave great updates on him when she came to check on him and also great photos. This was our first time using Rover and we lucked out and won the lottery choosing Anna! We definitely recommend her and will ask her to check on Thor again.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how much care and attention Bethaney gives to animals. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s such a relief knowing we can leave our pet in such capable and caring hands with Bethaney. We would highly recommend Bethaney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

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 use the 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.
