“Jacey was a great sitter and did amazing with my blue heeler who takes a while to get used to strangers and she handled him perfectly! Will def book again and would recommend.”
About: I have had dogs most of my life. I have adopted my dogs through shelters and understand the need for patience, care and going with the dogs flow! My neighbors utilize these skills to dog sit and walk throughout the years. I am currently off for the summer from my full time job! I am able to provide walks and drop ins at any time of day. Your pets safety and care is my number one priority. If you prefer more communication during the visit, I will always accommodate that. You are trusting me with your family, so I will treat them as my own family as well.
“Eliza made sure our two cats were well taken care of and gave them lots of love and attention. We loved knowing they were in good hands while we were out of town. Would definitely use her again!”
About: Animal wellbeing has been a passion of mine since a young age. I started pet sitting and dog walking (individual and pack walks) in 2017. For me, it's easy to treat other people's pets like my own! I use Rover for my own pets, so I know firsthand how crucial excellent and reliable pet care is for our fury family members. I’m available for walks and drop ins 7 days a week and boarding from Friday evenings through Sunday nights. Feel free to reach out with specific dates/times! I love visiting pets in their home because so many are comfier staying in their own space while they wait for their humans to return. I know firsthand how important a predictable routine is for our pets.
“Sydney was amazing! She took excellent care of my three cats. The most shy of the group even made friends with Sydney! Highly recommend Sydney if you are looking for someone to care for your pets.”
“Brianna was fabulous. Went above and beyond with taking care of our House Rabbit! She was responsive and caring. We have had Brianna take care of Houdini before and will again!”
“Marcella was very attentive to our furbabies! She asked great questions initially, was very timely and spent time with them. They seemed quite happy when we got back. Very good experience!”
“Jennifer was communicative and accommodating with her meet and greets and drop-in visits. She was kind enough to bring in our mail and packages, and sent some pics every night. It was much appreciated and helped ease the anxiety of leaving our cats at home.”
About: Hello, my name is Sophia! I am located in Franklin, MA. I’ve been working in the animal care industry for 5 years and have worked at multiple different daycare/boarding facilities. I not only have experience in pet care, but also dog training. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pup/kitty! I am currently working per diem so my schedule can be inconsistent. However, since I do not work the same hours every week, I will be better able to make the time that adheres to your needs and schedule. Your pup’s health and safety will always be my top priority. During walks or overnight stays, your dog/cat will be my main focus at all times. I am always on top of your pets needs whether it is a walk, potty break, play time, feeding & water, or litter scooping; no task is too big or small.
“Keri is fantastic! My shih tzu Jackson is absolutely in love with her. Keri had even been known to occasionally bring him a little toy! Whenever Keri is scheduled to visit, I am confident she's going to take the best care of him.”
“Cheryl was easy to work with, and went above and beyond our expectations! She communicated with us contiguously throughout our vacation. We hopefully will be able to work with her again going forward :)”
“Stephanie was absolutely great. The dogs were well cared for and they seemed happy as can be. We would definelty use her again. Everytime she watches them, there is no worries, she dogs are well taken care of.”
“Sarah was awesome with Rufus! Very professional always on time and made sure to check in to keep me updated on my favorite pup. I think Rufus loves her more than myself! Will definitely love to use her again and would highly recommend you do as well! Thanks Sarah”
“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Mendon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
