“Leona is very kind and friendly. She helped us with visiting our cat Pudding twice a day. She really loves cats. She played with Pudding every time and made sure she has food and water and sent us pictures. Pudding was very happy and playful when we arrived. Definitely recommended.”
“Hadley is my first choice and is always very reliable. Very communicative with me and so sweet with my cat. It's so comforting to know that she's well taken care of while I'm away. Thanks again, Hadley!”

“Ari provides an exceptional dog walking service that I wholeheartedly recommend. His reliability, caring approach, and commitment to safety makes him stand out. With excellent communication and professionalism, he ensures peace of mind for me and Coby. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Garrett took great care of our cats! Both kittens enjoyed snuggling and playing with him. They were very well-cared for during the couple of days when we weren’t around.”
About: I have experience taking care of my own cat and dog. I am used to the daily routines of a pet, such as feeding, cleaning, play and company. I am a responsible, patient and careful person. I like to follow the instructions of each owner to respect the schedules, habits and needs of each pet. I also feel comfortable walking friendly dogs and making home visits to feed them, accompany them and make sure they are well. I have flexible availability during the week and on weekends. I can organize my schedule for walks and home visits, and I like to dedicate enough time to each pet so that it feels accompanied and well taken care of. I always carefully follow the instructions of each owner and respect the routine of each pet. I make sure they have water, food, walks and company, and I maintain constant communication with photos and updates during the service.
“Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog when I was 5 which was my dream come true and had pets pretty much my whole life until I was 22. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, but I’m always happy to help watch my neighbors’ and friends’ pets whenever they need someone. I really enjoy being around animals and getting to know their different personalities. I’m caring, patient, and responsible, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, walks, and love while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I love every dog as if they were my own. Honestly, even when I see a dog walking down the street, I get so excited and immediately want to say hi! I would love to have a dog of my own right now, but since that isn’t possible at the moment, I think pet sitting is a really great way for me to spend time with dogs, care for them, and give them all the love and attention I would give my own. I’ve graduated from college in 2023 and since then have returned to taking college courses again. Therefore, I am used to the college life while maintaining animal care, whether it was for my own dog or dog sitting. Having to take courses again and not having a full time job has left me with more than enough time at home throughout the week. My family has always loved animals, so when I was 5 and had asked for a dog- it was an easy yes. I’m used to having a dog/dogs around the house. When my 2 dogs unfortunately passed away, I began dog sitting for neighbors, friends, and other loved ones and through my experience, I have had ample time for them in my schedule. I live in a house with a yard where I can take dogs outside for some fresh air and playtime. Part of the yard isn’t fenced, so I would always keep dogs on a leash while they’re outside to make sure they’re safe. I also have a neighborhood that I really enjoy walking in, and I’d be happy to take dogs on multiple walks throughout the day depending on their energy level and needs. I’m happy to follow their usual routine as much as possible, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just relaxing and getting lots of attention. If your dog uses wee-wee pads, that’s completely fine too! I’m happy to accommodate whatever they’re used to at home.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for many years family pets, friends’ dogs, and neighbors’ pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving medication if needed. As a parent myself, I’m patient, responsible, and always at home to give your pets the attention and security they need while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and send regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind. Pet care is a natural fit for my daily routine. As a parent, I’m home most of the day and already structured around caring for others. I handle meals, potty breaks/litter scooping, playtime, and any medication on a consistent schedule that matches your pet’s needs. I can easily adjust around school drop-offs, pickups, or family activities while still giving your pets plenty of attention and companionship. Overnight house sitting works especially well because I’m already at home in the evenings and nights. I’m reliable with communication and always make sure pets’ needs come first while fitting everything smoothly into my day. When you book house sitting with me, your pets stay in the comfort of their own home and receive consistent, attentive care. I’m home most of the day, so your pets get plenty of companionship and won’t be left alone for long stretches. You’ll receive daily photo updates and short messages so you know how everyone is doing. I follow your exact routines for feeding, potty breaks/litter scooping, medication (if needed), and playtime. I keep the house tidy, bring in the mail, water plants if requested, and leave everything just as I found it. I’m a parent myself, so I’m patient, calm, and used to managing a household. Your pets will be treated with the same care and affection I give my own family. Feel free to request a Meet & Greet so we can go over everything in person and make sure it’s a perfect fit!
“Yismarlin was great! Very patient and kind, waited for my cat to come to her and respected his boundaries. Completed all tasks successfully. Was very communicative, sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again.”
About: Since I was a baby I always had a special connection with animals especially dogs. I was raised with big dogs and they always felt like big teddy bears to me. Now as an adult I work as a dog handler. I've worked for Biscuits and Bath and now I work for a great company called Camp Canine. I've grown attached to our beautiful dog family. I want to extend my services to owners who might be looking for a more affordable way to keep their pets safe and busy having one on one fun. I have lots of references from Biscuits and Bath and Camp Canine. I look forward to spoiling your doggo. :) P.S. I can live stream every single time that I care for your pet. I’m currently working the weekends over night so I have plenty of space available. Your babies will be well attended to. I look forward to meeting them. I have a nice cozy apartment where I take care of the dogs and I also have a park directly in front of my building where they can get plenty of exercise with me.
“Julie was willing to come over for a meet and greet on her own time before walking our dog, Posie, and has been incredibly reliable and communicative every time she's worked for us since. She follows instructions carefully and always send updates and photos. Posie loves her! Highly recommended.”
About: I provide real, personalized care, not just a side hustle. I’ve got the patience for hyper puppies and a gentle touch for senior dogs who need a slower pace. Your pet will get treated like family, because that’s the only way I know how to do it. <33 I work out of my computer 4 days out of the week and in the office on Tuesdays (doesn't require full 8 hours). Therefore, very flexible/open. Your pet's safety and your trust are everything. I treat your home with respect and follow your routine to a T. I’ve got families that rely on me time after time, trust your fur baby will be in good hands, I guarantee it. :)
“Kathryn is a dream!m pet sitter! She has been so lovely to us and our cats from the beginning. She is communicative, detail oriented, and most importantly so caring and thoughtful towards our kitties. She sent us lots of updates with pictures and gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We will 100% be using her again and would highly recommend to others.”
About: I have provided care for everyone. I’ve taken care of babies, children, elders, cats and now dogs. I had my first sitting job for a friend last summer and I am ready to take on the challenge again. I am self employed, working from home daily. I spend most of my time with Violet and Blue, two very high energy and affectionate Maltese. We go for long walks around the greenway and practice new commands regularly. I adhere to the schedule the client has enforced and implement lots of play to support coping with not having their human companion at home.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Locust Point
Sabrina was wonderful, she was so sweet and gentle to my three cats. She knew how to interact with them and pet them but she also knew when to back off if any of my cats were more timid. She also cleaned up after my cats litter robot perfectly and kept my home clean as well as double checking if the oven/ stove was off! I felt so calm knowing my babies had such a great care taker while I was on vacation.
Grace has been a tremendous help with taking care of Bianca. She is always punctual, reliable, and great at communicating. We feel very fortunate to have found someone as kind, caring, and trustworthy as Grace. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.
Chok is the most caring and conscientious cat sitter I’ve ever had. Leaving your pets behind is always stressful, but she immediately put my mind at ease. Melody and Houdini instantly connected with her—they usually take time to warm up to new people, but they absolutely adored her! She was incredibly attentive to their routines, extremely thorough with the care instructions, and treated my home with the utmost respect. It is so clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell from her detailed updates and photos/videos she sent that my cats were in fantastic hands the entire time. ***Chok also administered asthma medicine to one of my cats (an inhaler using Aerotek chamber and mask). If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable sitter who will treat your fur babies like her own, look no further. I am so grateful for her and will definitely be booking her again! Chok is amazing!
Leona was amazing with our dog Doeby! Doeby is a very large energetic dog that requires constant attention and Leona provided everything that Doeby needed. Doeby appeared happy in every photo that Leona sent us. 10/10 service. She went above and beyond and allowed us to enjoy our wedding weekend without having to worry about Doeby. We will definitely be hiring her again.

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.
