“I feel lucky I found a wonderful caring and patient sitter for my two rescue dogs. My one dog that was rescued from a hoarders house a few years ago is still scarred by his horrible treatment and is very skittish around new people. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly he was able to build some trust and connect with Alicia. Highly recommend.”

“Amy is the best! Great communication and she helped us with a few house issues while we were away too. We felt great knowing our fur baby was in good hands. We’ll definitely book Amy again!!!!”

“Brooke did an amazing job with drop in visits for our 3 poodles. She provided check-ins with photos and notes on how they were doing. I was able to enjoy the wedding and know they were well cared for. We definitely will use Brooke again!”


“Shona did a wonderful job with her drop-in visits with my Cat. Her timing each day was consistent, my house was kept just as I left it, and she even made sure that my Chewy order made it inside; and got rid of the packing!! I would recommend Shona for any of your pet sitting needs!”


“Very responsive and sent me a picture. Great walker! Zoë was great when I came back despite the long day in the crate for her and only one walk. He didn’t mind that she had a broken toe and cone of shame.”

“We had reached out to Kirstin last minute and she could not have been nicer or more accommodating plus she was great with our silly boy, Mosley. She sent us updates and pictures each time she dropped in for a visit. Her communication regarding Mo was just what we needed to feel comfortable, that he was being well taken care of while we were away. Additionally, Kirstin was quick to respond to all of our messages (before, during and after our trip). We highly recommend Kirstins’ pet sitting services and look forward to booking with her again in the near future! Thanks Kirstin!🐾”

About: Hi! I grew up with cats since I was a baby. I have experience from kitten to older cats. I also have experience with dogs. I have watched a family member’s dog when needed. I have experience with puppy to older dogs. Hi, I am currently working at a school in Dresher. I’m available during the week starting around 7pm. And, I’m available all day on the weekends! I cannot watch dogs at mine and can only go to you! I am more than happy to house sit and/or walk your pets!
About: I grew up with 2 dogs in my family and helped take care of them. I also took care of, and played with, my friend’s dogs. I love dogs and enjoy caring for them. I am looking to make extra money. I get along with dogs very easily and love meeting new ones. I am available any time, both weekdays and weekends. I live in an apartment complex with one flight of stairs. The most important thing I do for pets is to follow their routine. I like to spend time playing with the animals, but also making sure they are getting the walks they are used to and meals at their regular time. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, so they are in familiar surroundings. I am an athletic trainer. I mostly work nights from 3-8 and sometimes on weekends. I live with my boyfriends and he works morning and is willing to help take care of animals! I live in an apartment complex with one flight of stairs. They are carpet and I am willing to pick animals up to help them if they have a tough time with stairs.
About: I have many years of experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and needs, including dogs, cats. I lived on a farm for many years, which gave me extensive hands-on experience with animals and taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and attentive care. I have been dog sitting for years, caring for everything from young puppies to senior dogs. I’m also experienced in caring for cats and dogs with medical needs and understand the extra attention, consistency, and compassion they may require. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. My flexible routine also allows me to be available for pets who need extra care, attention, or a consistent schedule. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I’m attentive to their individual personalities and needs, and I provide plenty of love, companionship, and patience. I also keep the home clean and tidy and communicate with owners so they can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I've been around dogs my entire life - from high-maintenance Yorkies to big-hearted Rottweilers, so you could say I don't get thrown off too easily. Puppies, seniors, rescues, anxious or reactive pups - I've probably seen it, or something close to it. What makes me different is how seriously I take your pet's comfort and emotional well-being. I pay attention to their behavior, adjust my energy to meet theirs, and treat them the way I'd want someone to treat my own - with consistency, patience, and a little extra love. Whether it's following a strict routine or adapting to a new one, I bring calm, experience, and a real love for animals. Pet care is a natural part of my life. Right now I'm in between roles so have a ton of bandwidth and flexibility. I have two dogs of my own and start every day with a walk and time outside. I'll always make time for your pet the same way I do for mine - no matter what is going on. Whether it's early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening walks, this is something I want to be doing and will always prioritize. I treat your space and your pet with the same respect I'd expect if roles were reversed. I follow care instructions to a T - feeding, meds, routines, energy levels, everything - and I'm always checking in to make sure your dog feels safe and secure. We don't cut corners here. If I'm walking them, there's no phones and I'm present. If I'm staying in your home, I'll leave it as clean (or cleaner) than I found it. And if you need someone to just stop in and show your pup some love while you're away, I'm your person.

“Erin was great for us. We had never used Rover before booking with Erin so we were not sure what to expect but she went over everything before hand and set up a meet and greet which was very reassuring. Erin was super thoughtful and thorough throughout which was very much appreciated. We would absolutely rebook with Erin in the future as she was one of the best pet sitters we have ever had.”


“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Sophia is a very dependable, professional, pet sitter- she ensures each of my pets are given attention and love during visits. She has so much knowledge and experience with all types of animals- I felt at ease leaving my fur babies in her capable hands.”


“Amy had been Nittanys walker for maybe 2 years she has been AMAZING! She is thoughtful and kind and is very sweet! I feel so much better knowing Nittany is with Amy, when I have to be away.”


“Tricia was fantastic! She took exceptional care of our fur babies while we were out of town. She administered medicine for our elderly German Shepherd and is great with pets that require special care. We are really grateful to have someone dependable, like Tricia, to watch them. We will definitely be repeat customers.”

About: My husband and I are full time, insured dog professionals offering a multitude of dog services (boarding, day care, training, transport, import). I have cared for everything from Frenchies to Malinois to Mastiffs. We live on a farmette and our back yard backs up to our pastures for our pigs, sheep, chickens and horses, so your pups will always have something interesting to look at! I understand the need for consistency with all dogs and my current clients love coming to their farm vacations because of it! We provide a huge fenced yard that was fenced specifically for dogs with three board wood and pet fencing in between, as well as a separate quiet room that the dogs stay in while unable to be watched for their safety (we do have air conditioning in our home since that is a frequently asked question for the brachycephalic breeds). We never have unfamiliar dogs alone together and each dog family has their own space to be able to rest, relax and eat between being outside and playing alone or in a group depending on their needs. Boarding with us provides you with the professionalism and safety of a kennel but the personal touch and care of a home while you are away. Chews, toys and treats are provided with owner approval and photos and videos are sent on a regular basis if you want to ensure your babies are having a blast at “camp”. I am home all day and able to meet the needs of puppies or senior dogs who need frequent outdoor time and I am able to give all other dogs ample outdoors time, either alone or with my very friendly Chessie as a playmate. My husband and I are experienced with all behavior types, and monitor all interactions to ensure your dog is safe and enjoying social time. During busy seasons, we can accommodate multiple clients as long as everyone is friendly. I also have the ability to take reactive dogs and give them plenty of alone time both inside and outside. No dogs are ever left unmonitored while outside or while interacting with other dogs if they are able to do so. Health and safety is the first priority with fullilment being a close second! I am a full time dog professional, so your dog won’t ever be unattended for long periods of time (if ever). Dogs are our priority from the moment we wake up to the moment we go to bed. Please also note that our drop off times are between the hours of 830am and 7pm and by scheduled appointment only- this allows us time to complete our morning routine the day of check in and ensure your pups are coming into a quiet and relaxed environment. Pick up times are more flexible, but we do not do any pick ups later than 9pm most nights and also need to be scheduled, thank you! Please note in the upcoming holiday season: I do not offer drop off or pick up times on major holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, NYE, New Year’s Day) but we do offer boarding over those holidays! thank you for understanding! I have a large fenced yard and can provide your dog with other doggy playmates, but I can also accommodate dogs who don’t enjoy other canine companions or only prefer humans. I have the ability to safely crate dogs who do best in crates, and separate everyone for naps/feeding etc. During times that I am unable to monitor our dogs, all of them are separated to ensure that all interactions are able to be regulated and safe (my dogs are crated at night and while I am gone).
“Meghan provided excellent care to my two kitties. She was very conscious about keeping the food dishes clean and keeping the litter box clean. She spent time with them , giiving some love and comfort. I have reserved Meghan for multiple trips during the next year.”

About: I have had pets all my life. For nearly twenty years I grew up having multiple rescue dogs! I have always loved animals! For the past twenty plus years I have had cats. I have also had and cared for many types of small animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, gerbils, hamsters, birds as well as fish, turtles and hermit crabs! Presently, I volunteer my time with a local rescue organizations. I am dependable, reliable and flexible! I am available for walks and drop in visits for dogs, cats and small animals Monday through Friday from 12-5pm. I am also experienced with giving oral and topical medications. We have a fenced in back yard for our Golden Retriever. She is walked twice a day around our neighborhood. We try to spend as much time outside with her as possible. My cat is an indoor cat. Occasionally she walks with me around the yard with a leash and harness. I always make sure pet safety comes first!

This was my first time reaching out to Autum. I was glad to meet her in person prior to her watching my 2 kittens. She is friendly and professional. She asked all the right questions and was concerned about their safety and the safety of my home. Appreciate her professionalism and wonderful updates on my kittens.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mainland is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 9,564 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mainland. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mainland. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
