About: I own two dogs and have pet sit for neighbors, friends, and family. I also previously started my own pet sitting business. I currently work at a pet resort/doggy daycare facility. I have experience with walking, feeding, providing care, and anything else you might want for your pet. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pups! During the week I can provide any service needed. I will set up a meet and greet before completely booking any service for first time clients. This way your pet can be as comfortable as possible with me and to discuss any details or concerns you might have. When caring for your fur baby in your home I will follow any routines you might have while also keeping them happy & entertained. Your pup is my #1 priority!
“Nicole is a gem. She said Chewee was a little nervous at first, but warmed up to her. She even sent a video to show her interacting with Chewee. I greatly appreciate her patience with our precious girl. We will have her over again tomorrow!”
“Kelly was absolutely amazing with our pup( Pitbull/oversized lap dog). She was flexible with our needs and she stayed true on her punctuality. She even was able to clip our pups nails which is a god send. If we weren’t moving, Kelly would be our go to Rover. THANK YOU!”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, older dogs, and cats for 4 years now. I love and care for each animal as if they are my own because I know how important a pet is to their family. I also respect all the rules given by their owners and make sure I’m following exact instructions. I also volunteered on a farm for a while as a young child and grew up taking care of my family’s chickens so animal care is something that has always been a part of my life. I am just graduated from school and getting my priorities straight so I have a very flexible schedule. When I’m working other jobs, they’re in the evenings and in my control as for scheduling and time so if there are specific needs for your pets around certain times, I can accommodate. I pet sit and homes and follow all rules that are given for me. I treat your space and your pets space with full respect and make sure I take care of it even better than my own space.
“Ladies and gentleman, when I say that this you g lady is dependable, I mean “can you please drop everything because my baby hasn’t eaten in 5 hours” type of panic. She drop across town to stepped up to the plate which calmed my soul. Us pet parents are extra sensitive when we are out of town, she never complained or said no. Sweet and dependable and TRUSTWORTHY!!! Emphasis on TRUSTWORTHY! If you are looking for peace of mind, Jasmine is the right and only choice! I will be seeking her services again.”

About: Hi, I’m the person your pets think about when you’re gone. I offer personalized pet sitting, boarding, and training with a focus on routine, trust, and real connection. Every animal in my care is treated like my own—whether that means sticking closely to their home schedule, giving them space to decompress, or matching their energy with play, structure, and attention. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all temperaments, from high-energy and “chaotic” personalities to anxious or more reserved pets. I’m also comfortable working with exotics, including reptiles and other non-traditional pets—something you won’t find everywhere. My goal is simple: ➡️ Keep your pet’s world feeling stable and familiar ➡️ Build trust through consistency and understanding ➡️ Give you peace of mind while you’re away You won’t get one-size-fits-all care here. I pay attention to the little things—feeding routines, quirks, behaviors, and body language—because that’s what makes the biggest difference. Whether your pet is clingy, independent, vocal, or a little mischievous, they’ll have a safe, structured, and genuinely caring environment with me Pet care is built into my routine to ensure consistency and reliable attention. I work four 10-hour shifts each week at a veterinary hospital and have three days off for more flexible, hands-on care. On workdays, pets receive morning and evening care including feeding, exercise, and one-on-one attention, while I keep their routine as close to home as possible. On my days off, I’m available for more time, enrichment, and individualized care. My veterinary experience also allows me to monitor health, recognize behavior changes, and administer medications if needed—giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, exercise, medication, and any specific routines, while keeping their space clean and low-stress. In my home, pets are treated like part of the household with structured care for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest, adjusted to their individual needs and energy levels. Across both settings, I provide attentive supervision, enrichment, and calm companionship, with experience recognizing behavior changes and handling medications when needed. My goal is consistent, reliable care and peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I've regularly walked my neighbors' dogs since I was 12. That role made me the go-to pet sitter for most of the households on my block! I've taken care of senior dogs over the age of 14, puppies, cats and kittens. At home, I have a cat and two dogs myself (a lab and a cavapoo). I work a hybrid job and can regularly check-in and be present with your pets! If you board with me, my pet-loving family is happy to play with your pup all day long as well! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs and one cat, so your dog needs to be friendly with other dogs. My cat is very good with dogs and my two dogs are friendly as well.

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.
