“Excellent service. dropped in and took care of and walked our lab while we were away. Fast communications and flexible scheduling. Will definitely use Tara again!”
About: Hi there! I'm an enthusiastic dog lover with a deep passion for caring for our furry friends. With years of experience in dog walking and pet care, I understand that each dog has its own personality and needs. I prioritize their happiness, health, and safety during our walks, making sure they get the exercise and socialization they crave. Whether it's a playful pup or a mellow companion, I'm dedicated to providing a fun and nurturing experience for every dog I meet. Let's explore the great outdoors together! 🐾 Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, seamlessly fitting in with my schedule. I work part time locally, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate ample time to caring for pets. My days often begin with morning walks, where I ensure that every dog gets the exercise and attention they deserve. Throughout the day, I prioritize playtime, training, and nurturing activities, allowing me to build strong bonds with the animals I care for. This setup not only allows me to fulfill my passion for animal care, but it also ensures that your pets receive personalized attention and love whenever they are in my care! Pets come first period. My home is the dog’s home. I don’t believe in treating animals less than. I also live next to multiple parks to give them all the walks they need.
About: Hi! I’m Dana and I love pets! I have had dogs and cats in my family for as long as I’ve been alive. My current pup is a 8 year old chihuahua-mix rescue named Bella who is a ball of energy! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from boxers and pit bulls to chihuahuas and dachshunds! I am available for overnight sitting in your home, dog walks, and drop in visits. I am happy to send pictures and updates from our visits to keep your mind at ease I would love to watch your dog while you are away from home, take them for walks, or just drop in for potty breaks and some quick kisses! I have always treated my pets like my children, and will do the same for yours! I work M-F until 4pm; outside of those hours I’m very flexible! I can work with you to find what schedule is best for you and your four-legged family. When caring for pets in your home, I just need a rundown of what you expect from me to make you and your pets the most comfortable. Whether it be long walks or play time in the back yard, special treats or snuggles i will do my best to make sure they are cared for in the manner they are accustomed to.
“Had such a great, easy experience with Sydney! The dogs absolutely love her and she really is a dog whisperer. My dogs aren’t the easiest and yet they are so calm with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker”
“Justine was an amazing find for us on Rover! She is a natural with animals as a vet tech, and she quickly built rapport with our two dogs. She is professional, prompt, and very easy to work with. Strongly recommend with 5 stars!”
“Quinn went above and beyond to take care of my cats while I was away. She communicated thoroughly when she needed clarification, played with them and took great care of them. Would definitely rebook. Thanks, Quinn!”
About: I've been looking after dogs and cats since I was 12! They've ranged from my grandma's shitzu to dog sitting mastiffs! I've even watched reptiles like ball pythons and geckos. I've walked, bathed, fed, watered, and loved them the whole time. I, myself, have 2 bunnies, fish, and a ball python. All together the most dogs I've ever watched at the same time was 28! It was 5 adults dogs, one puppy the equivalent to a toddler, and 22 puppies! I am willing to go to the cape and islands for house sitting! At the moment I'm hoping that pet care will become a full-time job. At the moment I am able to do any day and any time. I, sadly, do not have a cute puppy or kitty to play with your fur baby, however it just means they get more love from me! I can lift a 75 pound dog if needed and have the resources to contain one if necessary.
About: I’ve had dogs basically my whole life and have always cared for friends’ and family’s dogs as well. I have a love for all animals of all shapes and sizes! I would love a career working with animals in the future, and I would love all the experience I can get! I am available early mornings and afternoons, but I’m always willing to accommodate with others’ schedules! I am always willing to care for pets in the comfort of their own home! I find it great to maintain their schedule as much as possible. I’m always calm and patient with all pets!
About: Hi, im Soléna and I’m a big animal lover! I work in the service industry and I have a pretty flexible schedule to help walk your pups. I have experience with puppies, small, and large breed dogs. My 90lb Anatolian shepherd, Violet, is an 11yo that I have had since she was 9 weeks from the rescue. I'm currently working part-time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to come by 3x a day on work days, and 4x a day on days off. I do not offer a boarding option for my home. My dog as she's gotten elderly can be reactive to other dogs in her space. For walks, depending on behavioral notes, we would avoid other animals on the street, i.e. crossover, and avoid areas largely populated with dogs.
“Jen and her husband were so great with our two dogs and even went the extra step to feed my son’s lizard. We knew our pups were in good hands when they stopped by our house to check up on them, thank you so much!!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and when I turned 18 I even got my own dog who I love and care for daily!! I would love to care for your adorable animals while you are away and ensure that they are safe, happy, cared for and loved! I am a full-time college student and I work a waitressing job but I do have a pretty flexible schedule especially on the weekends and I can help take care of your animals!! I will follow your rules that you have set for your pets while also ensuring that they are healthy, happy and feel so much love while you are away!!
“Ixia was absolutely wonderful with our Pointer/Pit mix, Crimson. This was our first time using Rover, and our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time. (We had to take a trip out of state on short notice.) From the get-go, Ixia was very professional and attentive during our phone consultation - taking notes, checking details, learning the little intricacies of Crimson's routines. Crimson also has a torn ACL, so special care has to be taken during daily activities to ensure the injury doesn't worsen. Ixia was very reliable, responsive, and communicative with us the entire time. She was on time for every visit, sent us pictures of our pup, played with her, spent lots of time in the yard, and even went above and beyond to accommodate some extra drop-ins we hadn't originally planned. We were very impressed and thankful for the loving care that she provided our animals and by her professionalism and communication. 11/10 recommend, and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. Thank you, Ixia!”
“Jenna was absolutely amazing and our cat immediately accepted her as a preferred visitor by rubbing up against her and purring! Jenna also sent great pictures and wrote detailed rover cards so we knew that our girl was well taken care of. We will definitely be booking with Jenna again!”
“Kami was very accommodating with my last minute request for a drop-in visit the next day. She arrived promptly and sent an adorable picture of my little ones who looked very content with their new friend. I will reach out to Kami again for future needs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mattapoisett
Tara is amazing. Our travel plans had changed and we needed someone sort of last minute to drop in on and walk our high strung princess of a dog for a few weeks. Tara had no problem with our laundry list of notes and took absolutely fantastic care of our girl. We're nervous dog parents and we always felt in totally safe and capable hands. Tara was great at communicating and sharing pictures throughout and Nova loves her. We can't recommend her enough and will definitely reach out again next time we need to travel!

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.

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.
