About: I absolutely love dogs and have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. My current dog is a 14 year old Shorkie. I have also recently raised an Australian Shepherd with my former roommate from the age of 6 months to 3 years old. Given the ages of the dogs I have cared for in the past few years, I am confident I can meet the needs of a puppy, senior dog, and any age in between! I am constantly training dogs and am always dedicated to meeting their health and energy needs! My dogs get tons of enrichment activities and treats. We are constantly hiking and going to parks. I am generally available in the summer from morning to afternoon! I am happy to have the chance to take your pup for a nice, fulfilling walk! I treat all dogs as I would my own. Any dog will get my undivided attention when I am with them. Their safety and well-being are my top priorities!

“What an experience. We have never left anyone to take care of our Domino at home. Instead we would take him somewhere out of the comfort of his own home. Daphne truly loves animals and respect her clients. She even went above and beyond by bringing in our mail. I would refer her and Rover to all our friends ONLY because of our experience with Daphne. 10 stars AMAZING CARING RESPECTFUL!!!”

“This was the first time I used Rover or needed a sitter at all. I found Brenda and Francis and communicated shortly and set up a meeting day. Brenda came by and we hit it off. She's an animal lover, very caring and genuine. All throughout my time away, she was always reachable. Went the extra mile with maintaining the space my cats live in. And I even needed her to do some trouble shooting with the cameras in my house ( cats are fun ) . I will definitely be reaching out in the future to have this duo check in on my babies again. Trustworthy, responsible, and caring.”

About: Hello! I live in Sussex County, NJ, and have been walking dogs since January 2025 via the Wag app. I am available for drop ins, walks, and pet sitting during the day. Since I have 2 sassy beagle-mixes of my own, I can do overnight stays with some household coordination on my end. I’m currently working part time, so have a flexible schedule! I do my best to only accept bookings where I know I’ll make it not only on time, but a few minutes early. It’s important for me to know what access or limits your pet has in your home, so I like to over communicate with pet parents so I fully understand what makes your pet happy and safe.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, both within my family and for others outside of it. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of personalities, sizes, and needs, which has made me comfortable and confident handling all kinds of dogs. In addition to dogs, I’ve regularly cared for cats, including those with medical conditions that required administering medication. I understand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and gentle,especially when pets need extra care and consistency. I also have a dog of my own, so I know firsthand the level of love, responsibility, and attention pets deserve every day. I treat every animal I care for like they’re part of my own family, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from 9 AM to 2 PM four days a week, which leaves me available for morning and afternoon/evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I’m very active and walk about 5 miles every day, so I’m always happy to include dogs in my routine to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. Whether it’s a quick walk, a longer outing, or just spending time keeping your pet company, I can easily incorporate pet care into my schedule and stay consistent and reliable. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or their own. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific care needs. In a client’s home, I try to keep pets on their normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, along with regular walks and bathroom breaks. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I make sure they get lots of attention, daily walks, and supervision throughout their stay. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including administering medication when required. My goal is always to make sure each pet is happy, healthy, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind.

About: Ive had pets (dogs, cats, fish-oh my!) since I was very young, so I truly understand the meaning of our pets are family.

I have the deepest compassion for animals of all shapes and sizes, from exercise to medical care, to behavioral study…I have done all things animals!

About: I am currently in training to become a certified dog trainer. I am able to offer basic and puppy training at this time. I have around 18 years of pet care experience. I have cared for dogs and cats in the past, including elderly and ill pets. I can administer any necessary medications, both oral and injectable. I have also worked for a prominent doggy day care that has locations across the country. I have an acre of fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and get out all of their energy, so you can rest assured they'll be having the time of their life here! I work from home, so I am available whenever you need. I love to spend time with dogs and can be there when you can't!

“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”

About: I have taken care of almost all breeds. I have fostered and dog sat labs, pitbulls, mixed terriers, doodles, Bernese mountain dog, you name it! I have provided senior care to some, and the puppy stage. I am currently in school, so pet care fits very well into my weekly routine! I work part-time as well, just two-three days a week. I am well equipped to keep your dog how you would have them. If you crate them, I will! If you leave them roaming, I will! However you normally take care of your pet, I will always make them comfortable and do the same.

“We are so grateful to have crossed paths with Madelyn on Rover! She has watched our dogs twice now, both on short notice and has been so accommodating and flexible. She is now at the top of our list any time we need to consider a pet sitter for some time away! Every time our dogs spend time with her, we can tell they were loved and cared for, and our home is always very well taken care of! Madelyn truly goes above and beyond for her clients and is the best pet sitter we have ever had. She communicates thoroughly, and takes the time to make our pets comfortable- especially our special needs deaf dog. I Would absolutely recommend Madelyn to anyone looking for truly exceptional and dedicated service from a person who will love on your pets like her own. She’s truly a step above the rest!”

My dog had an accident in my house and she thoroughly cleaned up after him. Alexis goes above and beyond for her clients and their pets from quick response times to genuinely caring for your pet.

About: About Me 🐾 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with my dog, Lucy, and two cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life. For the past three years, I’ve also been a proud dog parent to my pup, Omelette! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own — whether that means a long walk, some playtime, keeping them company, or just making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I work during the day but have a flexible schedule outside of work, making me available for evening walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and other pet-care needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and follow any specific feeding, walking, medication, or care instructions you provide. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every animal has their own personality. Whether your pet is energetic and ready for an adventure, shy and needs some patience, or would rather spend the evening curled up on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Most importantly, I want you to be able to leave your pet knowing they’re in good hands — and I’m always happy to send plenty of pictures and updates along the way! 🐶🐱 I work a full-time schedule, but I have plenty of flexibility outside of work to provide reliable pet care. I’m available for evening walks and drop-ins during the week, as well as overnight stays and more flexible care on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and company while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for them. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and boundaries. I’ll always follow your instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love.

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.
