“Malia was so wonderful taking care of my dogs. They took to her right away like she was someone they knew for a longtime. She even helped my bunny back into his cage after he somehow got out. Definitely will be reaching out to her again.”
“Laura and her family were great for our dog. They accommodated a last minute request over an holiday and kept us informed every visit with notes, pictures, and updates. We will definitely work with them again.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover for as long as I can remember. Caring for pets truly brightens my day, and I make it a priority to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, energy levels, and personalities, and I’m happy to tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort and happiness. Pet care is a structured part of my weekly routine. I intentionally plan my schedule to allow for consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, and I adjust as needed to meet each pet’s specific needs. I care for pets by prioritizing their routine, comfort, and safety. I follow all client instructions carefully and communicate clearly to ensure peace of mind.
About: I have experience in taking care of pets ever since I was 5 years old. I have the most experience with taking care of dogs with feeding, bathing, walking, and training. A pet is a family member and will be treated as such. I work from home every day and am able to freely care for your furry friend throughout the day and attend to their needs as needed. I have 3 kids who also love dogs. I am open all week and will make sure your pet is considered part of the family when taking care of them. I do not have a fenced-in yard but will walk your fur baby daily. We go out 3 times a day every day and have play time or stimulation such as lick mats daily.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all of my life. I truly prefer them to people and can’t wait to love on yours! After a life time of pet care, very little surprises me. I work with incredible flexibility, and hope at some point to make loving on other people’s fur babies by full time income. Can’t wait to meet your babies! I have a fenced in yard and two doggies to help make your dog feel welcome. I’m also able to crate your animals if necessary.
“I definitely recommend! I was very skeptical at first because it was my first time booking a pet sitter but she was amazing. we met prior to the booking just to meet each other and talk a little! she followed instructions very well and I could tell my cats loved her company and were very comfortable. I loved all the photos she send and will book again!”
“Haleigh did an amazing job doing a drop in visit at our house. I felt totally safe giving her the code so she could come in and take care of our pup. She brought her three kids and they were successfully able to get him to potty, give him water and she sent me photos of her kids playing with him. It was super cute to see them all playing together and we were so thankful to have her drop by the house on a busy day to take the dog out.”
“Linda was great! We reached out last minute and on a holiday no less and she was timely, communicative, and very friendly. She went above and beyond and even texted hours later to check in on our fur babies. Would absolutely recommend!”
“I really appreciate you taking such good care of her! You gave me such peace knowing that you were there for her! I’m glad your little one is feeling better! How do I tip you?”
“Aly has been amazing with my two pups Teddy and Blaze! They absolutely adore her, and she does a wonderful job of leaving me fantastic visit updates (I love all the photos mid day while I’m away at work). Aly has also been great and super understanding with a few last minute schedule changes on my end. She’s awesome, and so lucky my pups have her to take care of them and check in throughout the week. 🙂”
About: I’ve grown up rehabbing injured animals and re-homing them so my knowledge regarding animal care is extensive. Animals have always played a large role in my happiness and quality of life. I am able to do walks, drop ins, and overnights at your home. My current living situation does not allow me to board. You will get plenty of pictures while you’re gone and have no worries about the safety and happiness of your dog! I do not have any breed restrictions and am comfortable with all ages of pups. Thank you for the consideration and I hope to hear from you! I am looking to make this my full time job while I am in school getting my Masters. I am available all days except for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. My current living situation does not allow for me to board at my home. I am more than willing to stay at my client's home to house/dog sit. This is currently a side hustle for me, however, that will changing around the second week of October. I will become more available with less restrictions. I am unavailable to house animals in my apartment. At your home, we can go for walks, play in the yard, get brushed, have treats, whatever their puppy heart desires— with parents permission of course.
About: I have house-sat and cared for both dogs and cats, as well growing up and having animals living with me almost my whole life (both my own and roomate’s pets). I have had to administer medicine to both dogs and cats in the past while taking care of them, and am comfortable with doing so. Drop-In Visits: Weekdays, I can typically provide these in the very early morning (630am) and evening (after 5pm). Weekends I will usually have more flexibility. House Sitting: I typically work full time during the week (Monday-Friday), so I am gone 10-11 hours total (up to 45 minute commute each way, and then an 9 hour shift). When you request a booking, I will make sure to give you more specific details on what my schedule looks like during your dates if it varies from my normal availability. I will treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would treat my own! I know pets are like family, and I want you to know they are in good hands!
“Elsy was very friendly and showed a lot of interest in our pups. Elsy sent many picture and video of her visit and I could tell my girls were having a good time. Elsy spent a lot of time outside with them. I look forward to my next trip as I know my furbabies will be well taken care of.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lowell
Our puppy is usually very nervous around anyone outside the family, but she quickly became comfortable and relaxed with Londyn. Knowing she was happy and at ease made being away from her so much easier and gave us real peace of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend Londyn to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and high-quality pet sitter. She is truly exceptional.

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.

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.
