“Jessica is the best! She is reliable, so easy to work with, and always quick to respond. And she is so great with my cat! Jessica really loves animals and makes sure they get lots of love and cuddles. I feel so lucky to have found Jessica, she is truly amazing!”
About: I’ve owned two dogs of my own (1 currently - Ellie!) and I regularly dog sit two other dogs owned by a friend. I love dogs and understand their behavior very well. As a dog owner myself, I understand the peace of mind that comes with leaving your dog with someone reliable and trustworthy. I have a full time job Monday through Friday but am generally available on weekends and occasional weeknights. I’m also more flexible on Fridays. I’m comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes. I would love to help provide potty breaks and walks and playing! For boarding, I have a roughly 30x30ft fenced yard and one 40lb friendly dog of my own.
“Natalie took great care of Sriracha when she has been at our house! Sriracha is a very shy cat but came right out during our meet and greet and seemed to like her very much. Natalie even brought in our mail and watered our plants! When we had a scheduleing mix up she was gracious and understanding and we were so grateful to have her taking care of our kitty.”
“Robin took wonderful care of our cat! She sent plenty of photos, stayed long for each visit, and helped with a few household tasks we requested. You can tell she truly loves cats—she even offered to clip our cat’s nails! We really appreciated her extra care and would happily book her again.”
About: I really wish my husband and I could adopt a dog but our condo complex doesn’t allow them and it breaks my heart! Can I borrow yours for a couple hours?? I’ve always loved animals so taking care of them just seems so rewarding and fun for a part time job. I’ll get to hang out with dogs and cats regularly so it’s perfect for me! I always go the extra mile for my cats when it comes to their food because both of them have some dietary issues. Both are healthy and happy and have a great meal plan.
“Highly recommend Monica! My cat is a sufferer of the COVID telework anxiety and she took great care of him while I was on leave. I even know my cat was a happy customer by evidence of his toys everywhere and his happy full belly. Monica was great at providing me updates with pictures and notes on his care for that visit.”
“Delaney is a sweetie and dependable! She was put in an awkward situation, but handled it like a champ while exercising the dogs for over an hour! (Thanks again for that learning experience) My Shiba requires medication twice a day and she has no problems handling that. I will definitely continue to rebook Delaney.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. There has not been a time where I wasn’t caring for pets. I have also watched my friends and family’s pets. I have given medicine when needed. I work full time but that doesn’t stop me from loving furry friends. I am able to walk, play, and take care of pets before and after work. I have an apartment, which is why I would prefer to come to you! Keeping your pet in their comfort zone also helps me be able to take care of them!

If you just want your dog to get some exercise while you’re at work or busy I would love to help! Ive also had cats my whole life & enjoying hanging out with them & caring for them.

About: Pet owner, pet lover! I have been sitting for friends and family since I was a teen. I also grew up around large dogs. I adopted a staffy mix in 2014 and we had 9 great years together before she passed. I’m not ready to adopt again, so until then, I’d like to help others. I’ve also had a few cats in the past and currently have 2! They are both tolerant of dogs and if they are uncomfortable, they will typically leave the room. My friends will bring their dogs when they visit me and my cats do well. I don’t have a yard per se but there is a lot of open space for frequent walks/potty breaks. My apartment complex is very pet-friendly. I am on the 2nd floor, so there are 2 sets of steps that may make it hard for older dogs. I often do overnights and stay with pets in their own home to maximize their comfort and keep their routines intact. I’m flexible based on your individual needs. One of my interests is in animal behavior. I have read many books (my favorites are from Patricia B. McConnell) My philosophy is we are training everyday. Consistency is important to me and for them, so I will ask many questions during the meet and greet stage to understand their needs and know how to best support you both. I look forward to meeting you both! My schedule is determined by the pets in my care and their schedules. I am currently freelance with WFH tasks and gig work and schedule my other jobs around my pet care calendar. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open space to walk. With me, your pup will have 24/7 one-on-one attention. They are allowed on the furniture and will always be supervised. I also have room to set up a crate if they are crate-trained but most of the time they will play and hangout where I am. I have 2 cats that do well with dogs. The cat food is raised off the floor and litter boxes are located in the main living space and are scooped immediately.
About: I currently have a fun loving 2 year old puppy and 3 senior cats. I love spending time with them and am looking to spread my expertise. I am available early mornings, nights, and weekends for both cat and dog care. I can provide consistent care and plenty of play time and attention. Would safely care for animals in the clients home and love to send pictures to keep you at ease. Communication is key and I will strive to make sure you feel safe
“Amber was fantastic! She and Loki got along right away at the Meet-and-Greet, which we weren't sure about since he hasn't met many new folks since we brought him home from the shelter. We greatly appreciated the photos each day, and Loki seemed to enjoy Amber's company and evening pets. This was our first time booking a cat sitter, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with Amber again.”
“Makenzi was wonderful with our dogs! She was punctual for every drop-in visit and kept us updated with photos each time, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We'd absolutely book with her again and have no hesitations recommending her to anyone.”
“Krista was an amazing sitter! My 3 cats absolutely loved her. I was blown away by how she even charmed my anti social cat. She communicated with us well, and took care of our precious fur babies with plenty of treats and toys. She genuinely cares about the animals, so if you're feeling weary about a pet sitter, know that with Krista, your babies will be in top notch care! ;D”

Always on time and consistently spent the full planned time with our three kitties, making sure they were cared for and given some quality attention. She also provided photo updates at each visit and was very communicative. Will definitely book with Sophia again!

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 .

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
