“McKenzie took wonderful care of our dog Nala while we were away for the weekend. She communicates well, responds quickly, and sends lots of pictures. Absolutely will be booking with her again for our further trips. You can trust that your fur babies are in excellent hands with her!!”
About: While under my care, your pets will be treated like my own; being shown the upmost amount of care and love. I will provide live updates and photos throughout the time they are in my care 😊 I currently work full time and my availability will be as follows: Tuesday through Friday anytime after 430 PM Available all day Saturday's, Sundays, and Mondays I have a friendly dog and cat. I live on a farm with a generous amount of space to keep them separated if it is needed and do have a crate if one is used in your pets day to day routine!
About: I've helped care for animals since my childhood. Recently, I cared for my senior dog, Ziggy, until his passing. Currently, I volunteer with Mountaineers 4 Mutts by cleaning cat kennels, socializing cats, and transporting animals. I currently work part-time and I enjoy caring for animals of my friends and family. I help out when I can and make sure their pets receive the best care. With my past pet Ziggy, I would always make sure he had water and food. I'd make sure he was comfortable and feeling alright. I made sure to take him out immediately when he let me know he had to go. Some days we went for walks and car rides, while other days we'd cuddle on the couch.
About: I have always had a love for dogs and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I have two rescue dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of making your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have previously worked as a dog sitter for family, friends, and people in my neighborhood. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy spending time playing with dogs, taking them on walks, and making sure they get the care and attention they need. I will treat your dog like they are my own!! I’m a college student and currently don’t have a job so I have a flexible schedule. I’m generally available Monday Wednesday and Fridays before 11AM and after 130PM. Tuesday Thursdays I am available before 930AM and after 1PM. I am apart of a sorority, so I occasionally have events at different times throughout the week, but I’m very flexible and happy to communicate ahead of time to work around my schedule and your pets needs! I currently live in an apartment, so unfortunately I’m unable to bring dogs into my home. I’m very comfortable caring for dogs in their own home and am used to working with dogs both on lease and in a fenced in yard. I will always prioritize your pets safety and follow your instructions for walks, outdoor time, feeding, and routines. I’m happy to maintain your dogs normal routine and provide plenty of attention and care!
About: I will care for any type of animal, whether it’s puppies or senior dogs or cats. I am also on the pre-vet track in college, along with participating in clubs like wildlife and vet. In college I don't get the opportunity to see many pets, at home I have a gecko I care for when I'm there, and over breaks I tend to pet sit family or family friends. So while pet care is not in my daily life I have experience caring for pets over many years. Caring for pets either in their home or mine I will listen to their very specific instructions because I know how picky some animals are.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 11 years old. I have bathed, fed, walked, and played with dogs and cats alike. I love it a lot and animals just bring me joy. I currently work part time at another job so I’ll have time to help take care of your pets throughout the week and keep them company. I am able to move around a bunch to play with your pet! I can also cuddle and relax with them if that’s more their speed. I understand every pet is different and I can work with them however they need! I’ll also make sure to stay communicative, letting you know what’s going on and sending pictures of your fur baby’s.
“Melissa did a great job caring for our dogs and cat, doing several drops-ins over a weekend. She was reliable, giving us frequent updates which helped make our time away worry-free. The dogs were a little suspicious at first, but she won them over with lots of treats and pets. We will definitely book with Melissa again.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to every pet, like they’re part of my own family. I have experience with both high-energy dogs and senior pets, so I know how to adapt to different needs—from playful fetch sessions to gentle walks and medication support. I’m also reliable, flexible with scheduling, and great at communicating with pet parents, always sending updates and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s sticking to a specific routine or just giving extra love and comfort, I go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule around both my part-time job and pet-sitting responsibilities to make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, playtime, or overnight stays, I stay organized and flexible so I can give consistent and loving care, even on busy days. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play and exercise, and always have clean water. I also take time to bond with them so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. If I’m doing drop-ins or overnight stays, I also keep the space tidy and send updates with pictures to keep pet parents in the loop. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, safe environment where they can relax and have fun. I stick to their feeding and potty schedules, offer plenty of attention, and make sure they’re never left alone for too long.
About: I have a passion for caring for dogs as well as humans. I have watch dogs since I was 16. I love helping everyone in every way I possibly can.I have worked at a Dog Kennel for 2 years until I wanted to do my own pet sitting out of my house and I love doing it! I am home all day with me two children and would make sure your loved pet get the care it needs. I would feed it off your daily schedule and take your pet on walks and take them potty every 2 hours and as needed. I have a fenced in yard to ensure safety of your pet and has plenty of room to run around in and to have a lot of fun.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Attention to detail and timeliness and super important to me. Trust me and I’ll watch your loved one like a member of my family. I work a simple 8-5 Monday-Friday. Looking to add a second income during these trying times. I do not do anything halfway. You’ll get the best service and communication you’ve received, which will make it hard to use anyone else after. 3-4 walks per day as well as at least 30 minutes of play time fully dedicated to my pup where he can let out all of his energy. I can tailor my routine to whatever your animals need.

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.
