“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”

About: I have, alongside owning pets, cared for many within and outside of my family for 6 years now. I know to care for dogs, cats, big and small. I can only do it mostly on weekends or early mornings on any other day. My days off from my regular job are Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday so if you need anything on those days then I am your gal! We take care of many pets in our home. We have 4 cats, and 5 dogs, one including a standard poodle but they have plenty of room in and outside of the house so they can have fun and roam!

About: I have the most experience caring for dogs and cats. Growing up, I always had pet dogs. Once I was finally on my own, I got my first cat and fully embraced the “cat lady” stereotype. I now have two other cats and one of them I raised from 4 weeks old. I therefore feel very experienced with bottle baby kittens. I am a full-time teacher so unless we are on a break, I am available during the week after 3pm. I don’t have any work commitments on weekends. I would follow whatever instructions you left for me regarding your pet. If I were to have any questions, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to you.

“Tiffany is the best sitter we’ve had by far. Every time we come back from a trip, we can tell how well she took care of our dogs. It’s obvious she cares so much because she even leaves special treats for them. As long as Tiffany is available, she will always be my go to.”

“Madeline was the best! I’d never used Rover before and she was the first sitter I connected with. Madeline was extremely kind and communicative. She sent us plenty of videos and wrote detailed cards for us, which we appreciated immensely. I highly recommend her and will definitely see if she’s available next time we need a pet sitter.”

About: Hi, I am Tricia and i have had dogs all my life. I love pets very much and have worked at local animal shelters. Working in animal welfare has graced me with all sorts of experience with all types of animal behaviors and personalities. I also have lots of animal medical experience. I have worked with animals with aggression, separation anxiety, seizures, deaf, shy and fearful and much more. I can also medicate animals in any way needed. I am experienced in giving shots and pilling animals. Basic training is something I like to work on with all animals as I believe it helps them not only build their confidence but also keeps their mind busy and wears them out! Please let me know if I can help you out! I am currently working from home meaning I can spend tons of time with your pups staying at my home! We also love to go get pup cups often! I have a fenced yard and dogs that also love other dogs. My house is centered around dogs with lots of comfy beds, toys and other fun stuff!

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, both my own and those of friends, family, and neighbors! Over the years, I’ve helped with everything from daily walks, feeding, and playtime to overnight stays and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I love staying active and am always happy to take dogs on long walks or spend time playing outside. I’m just as happy spending time with cats, whether that means interactive playtime, cuddles, or letting them relax at their own pace. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same love, care, and attention I’d give my own! I recently moved to Kansas City and work full-time in professional sports! While my weekdays are generally spent at work, I have availability in the evenings and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. My schedule can vary depending on games and events, but I’m happy to coordinate with pet owners to find a routine that works for everyone. I love spending my free time with animals and making sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities! I follow your instructions closely, maintain a clean and safe environment, and do everything I can to make your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, extra cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and attention I’d want for my own!

Highly recommend and will definitely ask Shelby to sit again!”

“We booked Erika for drop in visits while we were out of town for 10 days and could not have been more pleased. She stayed in touch by sending messages and pictures and I was able to enjoy our trip more knowing she was there taking care of things. She went above and beyond by getting our very shy dog Sherpa to become her friend. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting peace of mind while they are away.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mya! This was our first time ever using a pet sitter outside of family, and I was honestly so nervous I barely slept the night before! 😂 We have a very large Great Dane, Gunner, and I was worried he might overwhelm her or scare her away. Well, I worried for absolutely nothing! Gunner absolutely loved her, and she was amazing with him! She followed all of our instructions, was on time for every visit, and sent lots of pictures that really helped put my mind at ease. She even managed to get our shy kitty, Indie, to come out and say hello, which is impressive all on its own! Mya was professional, dependable, and communicated wonderfully throughout the entire experience. It was such a relief knowing our fur babies were in good hands while we were away. We are beyond impressed and will absolutely be using her again! Highly recommend!

Adrianna is awesome! Our cat had been a little sick recently and was on the mend after a vet visit. Adrianna was very communicative, giving us updates on our cat’s energy level and well being. It gave me such peace of mind while we were away.

I had a great experience with Jessica and would absolutely book with them again. They were reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my cat’s comfort and well-being. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy and well cared for when I returned, and everything was left clean and tidy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!

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.
