About: I’ve loved taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve helped care for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors, including walking, feeding, playing with, and bathing them. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities and always want them to feel safe and loved! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m usually available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m especially available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine! I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, fed, exercised, and getting plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their normal routine and any specific instructions they leave me. I’m happy to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well.
“Laurie checked on my 2 cats while I was away. They are very shy but they warmed up to her right away. She was very kind and stayed to give them treats and pet them every night. Both of them loved her and I'll definitely have her watch them again!”
“Corinna was fantastic! She was so attentive to the dogs and just sat and played with them the entire time she was there. She communicated well and took pictures so I could see what they were up too. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for them my entire life, so I understand the responsibility and trust that comes with looking after someone’s pet. I’m currently in graduate school, and I’m dependable, responsible, and organized. I’m comfortable with dogs of all personalities and enjoy making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs and routine, whether that means going for a walk, getting some exercise and playtime, or simply providing companionship. I’ll treat your dog with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits after 5 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I’m available anytime on Wednesdays and throughout the weekends! I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any other instructions they provide. I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs and always provide plenty of love, patience, and companionship.
“Emma is a wonderful and caring pet sitter. She spent quality time with our dogs who both have special care instructions. She is also an amazing pet photographer! Would highly recommend.”
“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”
About: I am new to pet sitting but I love animals and pets! I grew up having a lot of dogs in my house and an very rapidly with taking care off your pet. I am able to work with all types of dogs from puppies to seniors and big to small. I currently work part time so my days and hours are pretty flexible. I am a college student looking to make some extra money for school but also enjoy hanging out with fur babies. I am very flexible with what owners can accommodate wether if ur dogs needs to be taken out on a leash or if you have a fenced property.
About: I’ve had rescue dogs my whole adult life, 3lbs to 120lbs. My pets are my world and I will treat your pets how I’d want mine treated. I am a full time nurse and work 3/12hr shifts weekly overnight so I’m available for walks/play in the mornings and throughout the day. I am studying dog grooming also so that I can start my own business and add that as a service provided. Walking, playing, bathing, feeding, snuggling etc. are services I can provide to keep your pets comfortable in your absence…they will be excited to see you when you return but will have been loved well while you were gone.
“Christiane was wonderful!! She was super friendly, communicated super well, and sent us beautiful photos of our two cats! She also shared very detailed updates with each visit. Would highly recommend booking with her!”
About: I have had pets for my whole life. Most of my friends called my house a "zoo" growing up because of the wide range of animals we had around the house, from puppies to snakes to pigs- we had it all. When caring for another animal, I treat it like it were my own. I always saw my pets as an extension of my own family and want to treat all animals the same way. I am currently home from college right now, so I am flexible. I have 3 pets of my own who I take care of, other than that I am free. It depends on the pet and their individual needs. I have a dog, but he is extremely active and loves being outdoors, so letting him out every hour or couple minutes is important for him. Whereas, another dog may not enjoy. being outside as much or have certain medical needs that prevents them from running. I love cuddling up on the couch with my pets (dog and two cats), and giving them affection. I also enjoy spending time with them by getting them active and playing their favorite games/ toys.
About: I’ve had my first dog( Bandit) for 10 years. Since I was 9, I would take care of him on the daily. I would be the one to bathe, feed, play with him, and walk him. My extended family even trusted me to care for their pets while they’ve been away. I also own many different kinds of pets other than dogs and cats, so animal care is something I have adapted to. For the past two years, I have had experience in intensive dog training and I am educated in dog behavior. I attend The Ohio State University studying Biology in order to become a Veterinarian. Not only do i need to earn a bachelor’s degree to get into vet school, but i also need hours of experience. To achieve that, I have volunteered at ASPCA (animal rescue organization) to care for the many animals in need. While there, I learned how to care for animals that have been in rough situations. I am able to manage dogs that are twice my size. As a crazy animal lover, I'd love to meet your pets! As of right now , I am available all day everyday to care for my own pets and yours too! I work from home, so pet care is something I’m able to do on the side. At home, I just got a fenced yard installed, but I take my pets out on walks. They are under my super vision 24/7. If my client has a fenced yard, I will happily take them outside as needed and provide playtime.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 569 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lotus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 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 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.
