I never had to worry about my dog knowing Sophie was coming to walk her. I received pictures and notes that made it even better. Blanche seemed happy every time Sophie arrived.

It’s helpful to know if your dog has any special needs, how much exercise they need, and if there are any behavioral areas you are working on.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
