“Amazing!! Felt so relieved to know they would be taken care of! She was so great with communication and on time!! I will use her every time as long as she is available!!!”
“She is hands down the best dog sitter that I’ve ever encountered, and I will definitely work with her again in the foreseeable future. She made me feel at ease with everything, and I didn’t have anything to worry about when it came to my animals’ safety and the security of my home. She’s very communicative and attentive when it came to the animals’ activity/progress. She is extremely awesome, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for the best dog sitter on the planet.”
About: I have had at least one furry friend since I was 10 years old. We have been fortunate enough to share our lives with a schnauzer, lab, doodle and a rescue at various times. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and have experience with large breeds. After a recent lay off from the company I was with for almost 30 years, I am currently working part time. I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. If boarding, I have a big yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I am also available to let your dog out, walk your dog and/or feed your dog at your home.
About: I treat every dog like they're my own; patient, attentive, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. I'm reliable and communicative, so you'll always know how your pup is doing while you're away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels, and I take the time to learn each dog's individual routine and quirks rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Weekends are when I'm fully available and focused on pet care; no rushing between other commitments. That means consistent walk times, unhurried playtime, and someone who's actually present rather than checking the clock. If you need reliable dog walks or drop-in visits, that's exactly the window I keep open." For drop-in visits, I follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible which includes feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you leave, so there's minimal disruption while you're away. I always do a quick check of food/water and make sure the home is secure before I leave. For walks, I go at your dog's pace rather than rushing, and I'm attentive to their comfort, always checking for signs of overheating, giving water breaks, and using leash/collar setups you're comfortable with. I keep you updated with the Rover app so you know how each visit went
“Andrew took great care of our fur babies while we traveled including a new puppy- no small order! He communicated effectively and was punctual for every check in. Thank you Andrew!”
“Having an older dog with some health issues, I was worried to leave her while traveling, but Rickey was perfect with her and gave me peace of mind while I was away! She sent thoughtful pictures and updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Blake did a great job taking care of our 3 cats, cleaning up after them, and sending us cute photos and videos while we were out of town. Even when we were unreachable with no cell service, Blake took care of things here. We are so glad we hired her to take care of our fur babies and will definitely be calling her again!”
“This was my first time booking with Gabbi and she was great with our pups. She was able to come check on my two very energetic dogs (Jack Russell Terrier and Lab). She did an excellent job of keeping us updated during the drop-in and provided photos. Very sweet and would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Abigail has been an absolute blessing to our family! She comes by twice a day to care for our two puppies, Dodi and Libi, making sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, and (just as importantly) have time to play and burn off some puppy energy. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals. She’s patient, attentive, and goes above and beyond what’s expected. In fact, she’s even taught Dodi and Libi how to “shake a paw,” which was such a fun surprise! What has impressed me just as much is how kind she is to our cats. She has taken the time to get to know them, and it’s clear they trust and enjoy her company. Knowing that all of our pets are receiving not only excellent care but also affection and attention has made a world of difference. Because of Abigail, I can go into the office with complete peace of mind, knowing my animals are safe, happy, and well cared for. That kind of trust is invaluable. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, communicative, and truly treats your pets like family, I recommend Abigail without hesitation. We are incredibly grateful for everything she does and look forward to continuing to work with her!”
About: Hi there! I’m Rebeccah, a proud dog mom to my sweet rescue pup, Charlotte Kate. Growing up, I was lucky to have a whole zoo of pets around me, and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of dogsitting for so many wonderful families with all kinds of breeds, and I truly love each and every one of them! If you choose me as your sitter, I promise to treat your dog like my own—lots of love, attention, and care are guaranteed! I’m responsible, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I know how much your furry friend means to you. I’ll send you plenty of updates and pictures so you’ll always know how your fur baby is doing and can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I’m so excited to meet you and your pup! Can’t wait to share some fun moments together! I work full time from home so I am here daily. They will be supervised and loved on! They will also be let out often. I will follow instructions given to me and will follow their routine. I am flexible and will care with the pets with lots of love!
About: I have loved and cared for cats my entire life. I'm currently a cat mom to three senior cats and have years of experience giving medications and insulin to cats. I believe cats should be worshipped. I also believe cats are magic and should be treated and cared for as such. I not only love cats, but I believe in treating them with respect and as beloved members of the family. I currently work from home a few days a week and am available to check in on your pet 2-3 times daily. I will treat your pets as my own. I will care for your pets at your home. I will feed, water and clean litter boxes and make sure everyone is safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and treat every pet like family! Whether cuddles or playtime, I’m here to give them the care they deserve! I have very flexible hours! I work 8:30-2:30 so have a lot of time from before & after those hours! :) I am open to the early mornings! I follow each pet’s routine closely, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I will always give lots of love, & make time for playtime!
About: I have always been a big animal lover, and love seeing the different personalities each animal has. My friends call me the dog whisperer 😄 Even with shy/skiddish dogs I have trained my dog the standard commands along with shake, high five, turn, and speak I do work a full time job Monday-Friday until 4:30. I am free on the weekends for boarding, or also on the weekdays if you pet is kennel trained If looking for dog walking, please let me know if your pet does not do well with other animals so I can make arrangements to leave my dog at home, or if I need to not walk multiple animals at once I live in a home on 3 acres, so there is plenty of room to play fetch, frisbee, etc. I also have a doggy door that leads to the fenced in backyard yard. For dogs that aren’t used to a doggy door I still keep an eye out on them for when they might need to go out, and most of the time they learn how to use the doggy door pretty quickly. So any pets that love to hang out outside, have access to sun bathe if they’d like 😊 Just leave me with a feeding schedule, or any other specific instructions and I will love and take care of your fur baby like they were my own 🩷
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats, as well as helping family members with their pets. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I truly understand how much they mean to their families. I am patient, calm, and very respectful of each animal’s personality and space. I’m especially gentle with shy, senior, or more sensitive pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. During each visit, I make sure pets are fed on time, have fresh water, receive attention, playtime, and plenty of affection. I understand how important routines are and I always follow instructions carefully. I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family, and I provide updates and photos so you can feel relaxed and confident knowing your pets are in caring and reliable hands. Pet care is a dedicated and organized part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule one day in advance to ensure I can provide reliable and punctual service to every client. I currently offer drop-in visits Monday through Friday between 6am and 3pm. I limit the number of visits per day so each pet receives calm, focused, and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain the pet’s normal routine and environment. I ensure doors and gates are secured, food and medications are administered as directed, and the home is kept clean and respectful. I provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners feel informed and reassured. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stable experience for both the pet and the family.
About: I’m a huge animal lover and have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I’m always excited to take them on walks and show them much love!💗 I am originally from Orange, California and just moved to TX. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and sitting throughout the week. I will accommodate to your needs and your pets’ needs to make sure they feel comfortable and safe.

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.
