“Kaylee is the best! Shady is so happy when she comes over he cries. She leaves great rover cards letting me know how the visit went, and she sends great pictures of my boy that I love getting because I miss him so much when I’m not with him! Can’t recommend Kaylee enough.”

“She was amazing and helped us out last minute with our pups! She even offered to come meet them the day before, which we really appreciated. She kept us updated the entire time and made us feel completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

About: Part time on Rover, full-time attention for your pets! I love animals. I used to work at a no-kill animal shelter (no veterinarian experience, but plenty of hands-on care), and I lived on a farm for 10 years with all kinds of animals, exotic and native. I'm good at reading animals that can't tell you what's wrong. I'm a dog mom myself to Milo, a Dutch Shepherd, so your pup gets the same care I'd want for him. I can do dog sitting, drop-in visits, or walks. I can't wait to meet you and your babies! Pet care is a big part of my week. I work part-time, so I have plenty of open time for walks, dropins, and sits. Your pet's routine slots right into my day: morning walks, midday checkins, evening wind downs I follow your pet's routine exactly as you leave it: same feeding times, same walking routes, same rules. I send photo updates so you always know how they're doing, and I leave your home tidy and secure.

“OMG David was absolutely the best! I left my lil big doggy in the hands of David, while out of town and was overjoyed that I could relax knowing that he was getting great care! My big boy was still in high spirits when I returned, as if I never left! David was super accomadating and very polite. Not to mention the wealth of knowledge that David possessed about dogs and their mannerisms was superrr comforting! Thank you so much again David!”

About: Hi! My name is Shayna Malonson, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs. I grew up with dogs my entire life, and now as an adult with my own home, I’m lucky to have two of my own: Ally (4 years old) and King (2 years old). They are a huge part of my daily life and have taught me so much about responsible, loving care. I personally bathe my dogs, brush their teeth, and handle their basic grooming after learning how to properly care for them myself. Through experience—especially managing my older dog’s dry skin—I’ve learned a lot about different dog food brands, skin-care products, and overall dog wellness. This has helped me become very attentive to each dog’s individual needs. In my free time, I enjoy playing fetch, going on simple walks, and giving my dogs plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I would love the opportunity to care for your dogs as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to plan feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest periods without rushing. I build my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they receive regular supervision, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning and evening routines, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m flexible and dependable. I enjoy keeping pets on a steady schedule so they feel comfortable and secure I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, dogs are treated like family and are always supervised. I make sure the space is clean, pet-safe, and free from hazards, with plenty of room for rest, play, and comfort. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with basic grooming care such as bathing and brushing, and I pay close attention to skin sensitivity, diet needs, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I never leave pets unattended outside. Trust and communication are very important to me. I provide updates, photos, and messages so owners feel confident and at ease while their pets are in my care. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: Pets are more than just animals. They are part of our families and deserv to be spoiled and loved since they are only with us for a short time. I do transports for rescues as often as possible to help as many as possible to find loving homes. I currently have two dogs and between jobs so my availabilty is pretty open. I can't do overnight/house sit because of my two boys, but can check in and visit anytime. I'm available for walks and house visits, but can't do overnights. I can check or visit at any time though. I treat all animals as good, if not better than my own. I appreciate their various personalites and quirks. One of mine is reactive towards mainly men and other dogs, so I understand some need special attention that others may not. They are all unique individuals.

About: I have owned and cared for many pets over the years but I've never have I ever gone a day in my life without a dog at my side. In high school, I received an animal psychology certificate From Halloy and Hugo where I studied the behavior and mentality of dogs and cats. They even had a section on rabbits. My family currently has 3 dogs (Winston, Buddy, and Toby), a leopard gecko (Randel), and a tortoise (Artemis). I am currently going to college in Spartanburg, SC while taking care of Artemis and Toby, who had recently hurt his back, in my apartment. I love going to new places, meeting new people, and new animals. I love caring for dogs of all sizes and I can't wait to meet new friends.

I had never used Rover before, and was nervous to be leaving my pets with a stranger. Aimee quickly put my mind at ease, as my pets took to her quickly upon meeting. Aimee has a heart for animals and I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

She called me if she had questions and did everything I asked her to do and then some. I recommend using Kaitlyn to provide your pets with the care they need while you are away.”

She communicated effectively throughout the process, and my dog truly enjoyed his time with her. I highly appreciate her professionalism and care.”

About: I've been working with dogs for 2+ years and love it, I was a supervisor at a dog daycare and boarding facility back home so I am doggy cpr certified and have certain certifications! I've worked with all different types of dogs ranging from xs breeds to xxl breeds. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their animals. I'm currently a stay at home wife so I would love to get out the house and get some puppy love! I am currently pregnant but dr recommend exercise to help with my type 2 diabetes during my pregnancy. I am available M-F between the hours of 11am-5pm weekends vary, but always open to discuss a certain day if needed! I have a fur baby myself. His name is Benji and is 4 years old. We have a pretty decent schedule, we wake up and go for a walk around our apartment complex every morning and then come back inside and relax, he gets his food and nibbles on in throughout the day, we go for another walk around the complex mid day and then he gets taken out again in the evening before bed, he gets treats throughout the day but not too many! We also try to go to the dog park once a week so he can have some off leash play!

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.
