“Christa was able to help us when we needed it! She made sure Chief had a great playtime and potty break during the day. He was his normal playful self when we got home!”

About: I have one dog, she's an 8 year old pit bull named Cali, the sweetest girl! Former veterinary tech for 5 years and have been watching family and friends pets ever since. I work from home, which offers flexibility to provide exceptional care for your pet! Pet Care is my top priority, I have no children and am unmarried. I have a fenced in yard, carpet throughout my home, extra bedroom and dogs are allowed on furniture. I'm flexible to you and your loved ones needs!

About: I can’t remember an age where I wasn’t helping birth and raise kittens and puppies, turtles, or rodents. From having blind, toothless senior chihuahuas and senile cats…to a litter of brand new pups or kittens struggling to catch their first breath I’ve been part of it. I’ve had several rodents and reptiles, and cared for my friends and family birds as well. Trained puppies and kittens to use the potty and more. Also helped with a few farm animals too. I work only 20-25hrs a week, so I’ll always be home within 6hours or less. Outside of work, I’m home hanging out with my kids and furbabies. I have two e.s.a. Certified cats who tend to hide away when someone new is here. I’ve had them both since babies (13y & 3y). Keep things clean, organized, healthy, I had a cleaning company too. I don’t have crates on hand or an outside fence but I have a huge yard, the neighbor has a spayed female American bulldog, very friendly. There are farm animals next door. However, I do appreciate being where the pet is comfortable and knows its space.

About: As someone who’s herself had every breed from a Golden Retriever, to a Poodle, to a Great Dane- I’m no stranger to big and little dogs! I’m happy to care for and play with your dog or puppy at anytime. I love to incorporate fetch or tug-of-war time, as well as anything water-based! I’m currently available on Friday afternoons, Saturdays, and Sunday for any pet needs you might have! I’m flexible with my schedule, just let me know when any changes in availability come up and I can adjust. I live in a one bedroom apartment near the Riverwalk without any fur babies at the moment, so your animal has my full attention! Pets are also allowed on my furniture if so desired.
About: My family and I love pets and we always treat any pets as if they are our own we don’t do this for money we do it because we enjoy it. I work full time but I am flexible with checking in on pets and making sure they don’t need any other assistant I will be the only one doing so I have a fenced in yard with a dog myself that goes outside multiple times for outside play an stays in doors you can depend on me having the same respect for your animal as well.
“Lauren was amazing! We've lucked out and have been able to have family or friends come over to let our pups out when we have to be away for long periods of time, until now. We reached out to Lauren via Rover to come over and check on our pups. One was extremely worried about her presence and the other warmed up after a while. She is communicative and pleasent to talk with via the app. Her Rover Report Cards were detailed (with adorable pics) and helped put our minds at ease with a stranger caring for our pups. Thanks Lauren ?”

About: Hi, my names Imani and anyone who knows me will say I love animals!! I’ve grown up with animals since I could remember! I currently don’t have animals of my own so i get my fix by caring for others !! I can’t wait to love on some of your furry kids! I do have a full-time job but im off on the weekends and evenings are free, which makes it perfect for overnights or weekend drop ins! I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and the BEST care while you’re away. I’m happy to keep their normal routines, provide outside play and walks when needed, give lots of cuddles and attention, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are being cared for just like family!
“Gavin took wonderful care of our cat! He came highly recommended from another sitter and was prompt, communicative, and our cat loved him. We really appreciated the time Gavin spent playing with our cat and keeping him company, and we would book Gavin again without question. Thank you!”

About: I grew up caring for animals of all kinds! I feel that on walks and spending quality time together are essential for the best care! I’m working part-time, so I have lots of time for long walks, potty breaks, and cuddling! I also prioritize maintaining a consistent routine for both the animal and myself! I have access to multiple pet friendly outdoor spaces, and during the summer my apartment complex remains quiet! I prioritize giving the animal time to adjust to the new environment and try to work at their pace!

About: I’m an active, outdoorsy animal lover with years of firsthand experience caring for dogs, including six years with two large dogs of my own. I’ve also lived with and helped care for my parents’ dogs and, more recently, two large dogs in a previous household. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including large and giant breeds, as well as puppies. I’m also insured and bonded. To me, pet care is about much more than feeding and walking. I want your pet to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Having had dogs of my own, I understand how much trust it takes to leave an animal you love in someone else’s hands. I enjoy following each pet’s normal routine closely and giving them the attention, affection, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. I’ll care for your pet with the same thoughtfulness and love I would want for my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday, so weekday pet care fits around my work schedule. I usually need to be at work by 8:00 AM and am off by 5-5:15 PM. My ability to get away during lunch varies and is not guaranteed. My overnight shows as unavailable Tuesdays — however, Tuesday may be possible depending on my work schedule. Please message me if you’re interested and I’ll be happy to see if I can make it work. For drop-in visits and dog walks, my profile lists availability for up to two visits per day. On weekends, I can often accommodate more than two visits or walks per day. On weekdays, visits and walks are available after work, with evening appointments beginning by 6:00 PM. My schedule can vary, so if the timing you need doesn’t appear to match my listed availability, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to check my schedule and see what’s possible. My weekends are especially flexible, giving me more availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays without the weekday workday constraints. I’m also happy to consider last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions closely so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I enjoy spending time with pets and making sure their needs are fully met, whether that means walks, meals, playtime, crate time, or letting your dog out in the yard as needed. I’ll spend time outside with them rather than simply opening the door and leaving them alone. If your pet is allowed on furniture or sleeps in a certain spot, I’m happy to follow the same household rules you use. My goal is to keep things familiar, safe, and low-stress while giving your pet plenty of attention and companionship. In addition to following your pet’s routine and safety instructions closely, I carry independent pet-care liability insurance and bonding for added peace of mind.
About: I grew up with my current dog who was a rescue. He was a scared but aggressive dog, who turned into my best friend. I am a very fit D1 track and field athlete at UNCW which makes me an amazing dog walker for all kinds. I have lots of patients and always have cared for all animals. I have done lots of dog sitting in my hometown and always been trusted by other dog owners. I am a college athlete with a busy schedule during the week, but I often have time in the evenings to care for all pets! I would love to be a part of the dog walking community and earn some money for school. I care for my pets and others pets in whichever way the owner would like me to. Every animal is different so catering to whatever they need is most important. Making sure the pet is happy and healthy is always my number one priority. I enjoy spending time with pets just as much as there owner and always making all animals comfortable.

“April did an amazing job with our two cats! They immediately opened up to her and let their personalities shine. She did a great job caring for the boys which included the last minute addition of eye medication which she handled with ease. We will not hesitate to reach out to her for our further pet sitting needs!”

About: As a veterinary assistant at a mixed-animal practice, I have hands-on experience caring for animals with a variety of needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, amphibians, chickens, sheep, goats, cattle, and some pigs. I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific care routines, and providing patient, attentive care. I’m always willing to learn and make sure every animal receives the care they need! I currently work Monday through Friday 8-5, so I’m available for pet care on weekends. I’m happy to coordinate visits around your pet’s needs and routine, and I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability! I’m occasionally available before and after work and I’m always available on holidays! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll follow your care instructions closely, maintain their usual routines, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable in their own home. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand to go over their needs, medications, and any special instructions. I’ll also keep you updated during visits so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
“I have complicated care instructions due to my cat’s health and Milena goes above and beyond to follow them exactly. She shows great care and compassion and is a pure delight.”

About: I know how much it means to have someone you trust caring for your dog. I’ll take the time to get to know your pup, follow their routine, and help them feel comfortable with me. Whether they love an energetic walk or a leisurely stroll with plenty of sniffing, I’m happy to go at their pace. You can count on thoughtful care, plenty of attention, and updates so you know how your pup is doing! I’m self-employed, which gives me flexibility to fit dog walks and visits into my week. I’ll work with you to find times that fit your pup’s routine and only accept bookings when I can give them the time and attention they deserve. When caring for your dog in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and take the time to help them feel comfortable with me. On walks, I’ll keep them securely leashed, be mindful of the weather, and avoid unfamiliar dogs unless we’ve discussed it beforehand. I’ll respect your home, double-check that doors are secure, and send updates so you know how your pup is doing. Their safety and your peace of mind matter to me.
About: I have 3 years of personal experience taking care and watching animals especially dogs. I have a black lab who I love dearly and I will love your pets like they are my own. I also have experience of watching more than one dog at the same time. I have grown up with dogs and have been around dogs my whole life. I will take your dogs on long walks and play ball or frisbee with your dog if that is something they will like to do. Also if your dog needs to be brushed I will also brush your dog too. And last I am a very reliable and responsible person and I will make sure your pets are safe and taken care of. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule and I am able to leave and go any time I need too. I am available all the time. I care for a 6 year old black lab who I have had since he was 3 months old and he has a structured routine but also gets lots of treats and bones. I will care and treat your pets as if they are my own.
About: I have had my fur baby now for 8 months. He’s still a puppy and lots of fun! I have fostered a few pups this year and enjoy spending time with dogs. I work from home during the week and I have time to give your furbaby non stop attention. My building has its own gated dog park and a park for lots of exercise during the day. I enjoy grooming at home, playing with toys and training with delicious treats. I would treat your fur baby just like my own lil guy (Tino)
About: I started my pet sitting business once I graduated high school in 2012. I did brief pet sitting while in high school and that’s what made me realize I wanted to have a career that involved being around animals. I’ve watched from the age of 8 weeks old puppies to 15 year old dogs. I’ve also watched cats, ducks, and peacocks. I do currently work full time as a receptionist but I plan on quitting that to make my pet sitting business a full time gig for me. I usually pet sit in the clients home due to me having to move back in with my parents. I either stay at their house or do visits. Whichever makes the clients more comfortable.
About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from playful small pups to large, energetic dogs. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters walking and caring for dogs, so I’m confident, reliable, and passionate about giving pets the care they deserve. I’m currently home from college and have a flexible schedule! Feel free to reach out—I’d love to find a time that works best for you and your pup. I stick to your dogs routine, follow any care instructions closely, and always give them plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. I also make sure to keep your home clean and secure while you’re away!

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.
