“John was fantastic! He kept us updated on what was going on at home and sent us pictures of the pets each day. He made sure the cats and Guiana pig didn’t miss a step in their routine while we were out of town. Fantastic experience! We will use him again.”

About: I have 6 years of hands-on experience caring for my friends and family dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from large breeds like German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to smaller breeds like Yorkies and Corgis. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, couch loving dogs, playful puppies, and affectionate companions, and I understand the importance of patience, routine, exercise, and making every pet feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I recently graduated high school so my schedule is very flexible and open to provide routine dependable care for home and your pets while you are away. I always make your pets safety and well being a top priority by keeping pets in a stable safe environment including outside in yards, on walks, as well as inside their home.

About: Ive taken care of different kinds of dogs since childhood. Family, friends, and locals have trusted me to feed, watch, or walk their dogs. I also can bathe dogs and brush them if needed. I work a part time job but I can stop in or help whenever needed. I typically work 4 hours a day and can care for animals before or after. I have a fenced in yard for my dog, and have multiple beds, towers, and scratching posts for my cats. I also have boxes of toys for both along with treats.

About: I have an immense love for pets, dogs especially! I have some experience being with family dogs and I have a 3 year old fur baby myself, who is a Shih Tzu and Bichon Frise mix. I take note of dog's body language, when they are tense and whenever they are ready to play. I have experience on how I should help a dog in the case they have trouble breathing. I especially love to bond and play with dogs! I ensure that your dogs are going to safe and have the best experiences with me!🤗 I'm currently working part-time, so I would have plenty of time to be with your fur babies! I am typically free on the weekdays from Monday to Friday. The earliest I can do a scheduled appointment for around 8 hours. My time ranges from the earliest at 8am and the latest at 9pm. In my home, I get rid of any harmful items on the ground or in sight of my pet. I clean my pet's bowl daily. I make sure to keep them company. I never leave them unsupervised for long hours. For your pet I will adhere to any strict feeding or medicine routines and communicate quick updates.

About: I’ve loved and cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. With dogs specifically, I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’ve also administered medications and supported senior pets through end-of-life care. Before changing majors, I studied pre-veterinary medicine, and I have volunteered with several animal rescues. Those experiences strengthened my ability to recognize behavioral cues, respect an animal’s boundaries, and remain calm when a pet needs extra reassurance. Caring for so many different animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, quiet companionship, or a familiar routine while you’re away, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for weekday, weekend, and holiday care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and care in your home. I’ll work with you to understand your pet’s usual schedule and maintain as much consistency as possible while they are in my care. As a pet parent myself, I know how stressful it can be to choose the right person and leave your animals in someone else’s care. Before a booking, I prefer to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, medical needs, and what helps them feel comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and household routines. During walks, I double-check collars and harnesses, keep dogs securely leashed, and remain attentive to our surroundings. During drop-ins and overnight stays, I’m mindful of doors, gates, and other potential escape points. I’ll treat your home with respect and will never bring another person into it without your permission. You’ll receive as many updates, photos, and videos as you’d like, so you always know what your pet is doing and how they are feeling. If I notice any concerning changes in their health or behavior, I’ll contact you promptly.

About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years now! With lots of experience with senior dogs and animals in need of more attentive care! I am fully available to housesit along with pets! I work a wonky schedule but the animal or persons baby also comes first! I am fully available 7 days a week! I am much more able to give my upmost priority and attention when staying with the animal in their home. I am not able to host animals at the moment. Not until I move. If that was not going on I would absolutely be able to host.

About: I have always loved caring for animals and have experience taking care of both dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away. I am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and giving pets the attention they need. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and routine so they can feel right at home! I am available most mornings and on most weekdays, with flexibility when needed. I am also happy to care for your pets during holidays when you may need a little extra help. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will take the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs so they feel safe and cared for while you are away. I will always follow your instructions carefully, keep a close eye on your pet, and provide plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will treat them and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

She handled everything perfectly and gave us complete peace of mind. Highly recommend Taylor for anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!!”

About: My love for animals started the day a stray Bassett hound wandered into my garage at the ripe age of 4. Ever since then I have taken in all animals under my care as my own! I love take care of all the furry friends! I have personally owned puppies, big dogs, cats, fish, hedgehogs and gerbils - although not at the same time (could you imagine, yikes) and watched after the same! I have done any and all visits whether it is a quick play date or a longer visit due to vacation! I enjoy building a long term relationship to provide a dependable sitter throughout the year! I have a child in elementary school and work at a high school during the day. If and when an overnight sitter is needed, I assure you I make arrangements prior to accepting to give my 100% to your fur baby! I like to mimic the care the dog has at home to make sure they are most comfortable. In the beginning I expect normal hesitation, so I am patient and playful to earn trust until everyone is comfortable.

I also don’t mind helping out with other animals in your home! My personal dog takes daily medication so if that’s something your pet needs I’m used to that already! I'm currently working shift work with a pretty flexible schedule. My days off and hours always change. Please reach out and we can figure out how I can best take care of your pets. I understand that pets are family members. I will make sure that they are taken out at the agreed upon times. I can send you photos throughout their care. I want to take the stress away from you while you are away knowing that your pet is in great hands.

About: I have always grown up around all kinds of dogs, large and small. I understand they require times to not only go outside to use the bathroom but also get some energy out. I am always willing to spend some extra time with them to get energy out. I am currently working part time, therefore most weeks are rather predictable for me and I have time often in the mornings and evenings when pets are most needed to be cared for. Some days I have more availability than others allowing mid-day times as well. Being able to help out owners and pets is something I find enjoyable. All pets have different personalities and when caring for them in their own home I try to ensure I understand their body language to ensure safety for myself and the animal. Caring for the pet is what matters most to me, following what owners need for their pet is my top priority.

About: Ive taken care of many pets with specialized needs. This includes routine medicine and eye drops for the elderly, frequent belly band changes changes for those with bladder issues, and calming treats for those fearful of storms. Im quick to learn each dogs bathroom tells to avoid any unwanted accidents. I also have fishkeeping experience with 2 freshwater fish tanks at home. So if youre fish needs feeding or water quality checks I can handle that was well. I am currently working a part time internship with flexible hours, which allows me to care for furry babies in my free time! Weekends are typically busy, however with enough notice I can make them work. House rules are always respected, no matter how much a dog wants couch cuddles or if the cat likes the view from on top of the counter.

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.
