“Azure is a treasure! Pepe received the best care and made the unpleasant experience of getting an insulin shot a positive one. He did so well in her care while we were away. Thank you Azure!!!”
“Jenna is a treasure! We are so thrilled we found a caring, reliable, trustworthy person to take care of our furbabies while we’re away! She did an excellent job caring for each of our cats, with very different personalities & needs. She left us detailed notes, lots of pictures & kept us updated the whole time we were away! Peace of mind is priceless - she’s worth every penny & more! Book with her, you’ll be glad you did!”
“We loved Emily and do did our dog. She was very professional and punctual, and tired our pup out very well. Great calm demeanor. Would definitely hire again”
“Bodhi was amazing! He took such great care of my cat while I was gone. He played with and loved on him a ton, was super punctual and communicated when he was going to be late, sent lots of cute pics, and gave super detailed report cards with everything he did to make sure Simon was well taken care of. There wasn't a single moment that I was worried about my pets well being under his care.”
“Morgan was so great with our pups while we were away and was kind enough to do a meet/greet prior to our departure! Great communicator and sent us lots of updates. We would absolutely love to use her services in the future. Thanks Morgan!”
“Camille did such a wonderful job with our cats! She went above and beyond in taking care of them and made sure they were always fed and played with. I highly recommend Camille as a dedicated, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!”
“Skylar was great with our elderly cat Lucky! Lucky usually hides from anyone who isn’t family, but she let Skylar take her picture and even accepted Nulo Treat from her. Skylar was flexible as our schedule changed a little and even helped us navigate the Rover app. I highly recommend her.”
“Madalyn was great with our cat while we were gone on a trip for two weeks, it seemed our cat really bonded with her and was well taken care of :) definitely recommend!!!”
“As always, Braelyn did a great job taking mg care of my cats! They’re always so happy to see her and she always takes the time to actually spend time with them beyond the usual pet sitting things- she gives them lots of attention and pets, plays with them, and makes sure they don’t feel too lonely while I’m gone. I highly recommend Braelyn for your pet sitting needs!”
“Responsive and accommodating to scheduling time slots for drop ins and itinerary of what to do while visiting. Jack seemed very relaxed and happy when we returned having gotten lots of great care and attention while we were gone.”
About: *About our place: For the holiday season I am booked! My son is available to housesit and do drop ins if interested please let me know. He has plenty of experience housesitting for friends farms as well as taking care of our pets. I will oversee his work. Our property is like a huge dog park! We have 3 treed and open fully fenced acres with a doggie door, covered deck, agility course, a pond for those that like to swim, plenty of toys, dog beds, room to dig and play and friendly dogs to play with. We have dogs, cats, and ducks (which are always penned up safely). We cannot take aggressive dogs or cat aggressive dogs. If your dog is reactive to other dogs we are unable to accommodate them. * About me I owned a grooming shop for 17 years and worked at a vet clinic for 15 years. I have also worked with multiple dog rescues over the years. I have experience with special needs dogs and those that require extra TLC. I only use positive reward based training. * Boarding For this option, your pup(s) will be staying in my home. I have dogs myself , so I ask for advanced notice of at least 72 hours before drop off because dogs coming last minute can be disruptive to our home life. Due to an unfortunate circumstance and privacy concerns with a potential client I no longer allow people inside my home for meet and greets. We can do meet and greets in our fenced back yard if you so choose. Meet and greets are not required. We often offer a trial day in lieu of a meet and greet as dogs act different when their owners leave and we want to see the true dog. I can only take a max of 2 dogs at once. If from different families I must know they dogs before they are allowed to interact with another family’s dog and be similar in age, temperament. All male dogs over a year must be neutered. No female dogs in heat. Dogs should be crate trained in the event of an emergency. If you have a puppy we can work on gentle crate training by feeding the pup in a crate and letting them out immediately after. The crate is always associated with something positive. We are not a kennel, this is our home and everyone’s safety is top priority. Your dog will be able to roam the house, sleep on the couch, use a doggie door to go in and out as they please and lots of playtime. We cannot hold spots available for you unless you reserve the spot. I adjust to your dog’s schedule. I do not expect them to adjust to mine. *Other Pets For this service we can also pet sit for more then just dogs. Caged animals such as birds, reptiles and small animals have their own private room. We have experience with snakes, bearded dragons, a variety of geckos, sugar gliders, rats, guinea pigs, bunnies, axolotls, and birds. Caged animals are NEVER allowed to intersect with other species or other animals they did not come with. We can feed, interact with and clean cages as necessary. The price is the same as our dog boarding fees due to the extra attention exotics need. **all pick ups must be no later than 6pm. If you are ruining late the dog or small animal can stay another day and you can pick up in the morning. *Housesitting- I do weekends only* For this option, I will provide drop ins during the day and stay overnight in your home. A meet and greet is required for this so we can go over food, dog’s or cats access in your home, potty break times, meds needing to be given etc. I can walk your dog during drop in times or play with your kitty. I am dog and human CPR/First Aid certified. I can do any type of medications your pet needs as well as feed any diet your dog or cat needs. *Doggie Daycare- Pick ups must be no later than 6pm. Your dog will have access to our huge backyard, they can swim in our pond or play in the baby pool. We have a small agility course and we do lure coursing. Plenty of my own dogs to run and play chase with. Due to our schedules we have the flexibility to give pets the time and energy they require. We don't use any harsh chemicals or pesticides on our property. We use beneficial nematodes in our yard to prevent fleas and other pests. My husband and I work opposite shifts so someone is always home. We have a doggie door so even the youngest pups can get outside to use the potty when they need. Our deck is separately fenced from our yard so they are always supervised. I treat all pets like family. I worked as a dog groomer and a vet tech for many years so I have a lot of experience. We can tailor the experience to fit your pup’s needs if necessary. While I do work, my husband and I work opposite shifts and my teenager does online school so someone is always home. We tailor our schedule to fit your dog’s needs. Dogs are welcome on our couch and we also have various dog beds for their comfort. My dogs are part of our family and your dogs will be cared for the same way.
“I’m really happy with Jessica! My dog Luna loves her coming and walking her! I appreciate her coming at short notice! I’ve had to stop and start service and she is always happy to come back! I appreciate her pictures and extra service like making sure Luna has water! Thank you so much for making me comfortable with someone else taking care of my spoiled hyper pup”
About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me over the years to help care for their fur babies, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, or simply helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m calm, dependable, highly detail-oriented, and understand how important routines and communication are when it comes to pet care. I’m especially comfortable with cats and small to medium-sized dogs, and I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, or just so you can see their sweet little face. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone truly trustworthy, attentive, and kind to care for your furry family members. As a high school teacher, my schedule is very routine-oriented, which makes me dependable and organized when caring for pets. During the school year, I’m generally available evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks, with more flexible availability during the summer months. I do my best to work with each pet’s established routine so they can feel comfortable, safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and respectful to care for your fur babies and your home. I approach each pet based on their individual personality, comfort level, and routine, whether they’re highly social and energetic or more shy and independent. I’m highly detail-oriented, dependable, and always respectful of feeding schedules, medication instructions, boundaries, and household expectations. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away, while still getting a glimpse of their sweet little face.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and temperaments since I was 13. I have experience in petsitting through family, friends and neighbors. Animals have always been in my life and their needs adjust my daily life. I’m currently a university student who is studying computer science. So a lot of my homework/ assignments are done on a computer meaning I’m home for most of the day! I have lots of extra time to interact/ have fun with a pet at home :) Walking: I provide long and stimulating walks with lots of sniffing, playing and exercise. Drop ins: I really enjoy these! I love greeting dogs and providing them with the mental/ physical stimulation they need for the day! ( I have lots of ideas prepared everyone’s different personality/size/activity) Boarding/ sitting: not available right now
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Marietta-Alderwood
Morgan was punctual and communicative. Took great care of my 12 week old puppy during a drop-in visit. We met beforehand to make a plan and she made my wife and I feel so comfortable leaving our pup in her care as this was our first time using Rover. Went the extra mile to make sure our other pet was secure and that the house was locked and lights were on.

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.
