“Yingqi was so awesome with both of my fur babies!! Not only did she board my energetic pup but she also accommodated my older cat with daily drop-ins!! I truly appreciated her time to take care of them both and receive her daily updates. I’m truly grateful 😄”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a kid and love to provide your furry friends with care and attention while you’re away! I’ve have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, chickens, and other farm animals. I have previously worked with pets with medical needs such as daily medication so I am happy to care for pets with special needs. When house sitting, I love to get your pets outside on walks (or runs if they are able to run) at least twice a day. As someone who works from home most days, I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pets, giving them lots of attention and cuddles! I work from home most days and like to break up my work with walks or playing with pets inside and outside of the house. When I go on site, I make sure to take pets out for exercise before I leave and I have flexibility to schedule on site work based on your pets needs, allowing me to check on them during the day if they don’t do well being left alone for long periods. I will want to arrange a meet and greet to ensure your pet has at least met me once before I began caring for them. I typically try to let pets warm up to me in their own time, allowing them to come to me when they are comfortable. Once we’ve established a relationship, I like to spend time playing with them and getting them exercise as much as they are up for and as my day allows.
“Chandler took great care of my cat while I was on vacation. I came back to a clean home and my cat had obviously been well cared for and well groomed; which is important as a long haired cat.”
“Chip is the best ! I have two large , very energetic dogs. They are not the most well behaved dogs :) He was great with them ! Very caring , loving and attentive . He sent me detailed reports of every visit. We are so glad we found Chip!”
“They were super polite and considerate of my pets' special needs, got lots of great pictures and detailed reports while we were on our trip and my pets were very well taken care of!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, energy levels, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with everything from active dogs who need long walks and playtime to pets who prefer a slower, quieter routine. I’m also comfortable reinforcing basic training, maintaining established routines, and giving pets the structure and consistency they’re used to at home. I’m especially attentive to body language and changes in behavior, and I’ll communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed, cared for, and genuinely happy while you’re away. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to them while they’re in my care. I take my dog, Lola, to discover park most mornings or a hike if I have the time. I also go to a park or trail every evening and I’m home most of the day- leaving for up to 4 hours at a time. I live in a dog-friendly apartment in the residential area of Fremont. Easy walking down the street for potty breaks and travel in the car available for parks and hikes.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love of animals and hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and ages - I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to offer care on most weekends and some weekday evenings, and I always keep my calendar up-to-date so you’ll know exactly when I’m available. During drop-in visits, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely. I feed them, give any medications if needed, provide fresh water, and spend quality time walking, playing, and giving affection. I also make sure your home stays tidy, check in with updates and photos, and give your pet plenty of attention so they feel happy and safe while you’re away.
“Jessica was amazing! Wonderful communication and was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change. My dog is reactive however, he warmed up quickly and absolutely adored Jessica. He requires a lot of instructions upon leaving the house due to his anxiety and Jessica followed them perfectly!”
“Amanda was an amazing Cat Sitter for us while we were away for vacation. She played with our cat, made sure he was fed, and even cleaned his litter box while we were out. She was very responsive and friendly. I highly recommend her for any of your pets needs!”
About: I’ve taken care of every king of dog from Frechies to German Shepard to Shi Tzu. Love playing with dogs and have loved and trained two of my own. I look forward to caring for your pet. I work from home and will be available to spend time with your pup. I am available for walks, stays at my place, or house sitting. I have a fenced pup area and they are welcome in my home. I also live close to a park for east walks and play time.
“My dog absolutely loves spending time with Zoe. She is a very courteous house sitter, and a great communicator. She will regularly check in via rover messenger when she has questions. Would recommend her services to friends and family.”
“Another great visit from Cathleen. My crew really does love her! And a bonus, the photos she sends are AMAZING. She always has a way of capturing their spirit and shenanigans.”
About: Hey there! Dogs have been part of my life since I was five and I still stop to say hi to every one I see, now that I don’t have my own furry friend here at college! I grew up with chihuahuas, pugs, and shih-tzus, but I’ve cared for various friends’ pets and love spending time outdoors. With a park conveniently close by, your pup will always get great walks and lots of love! I’m currently a college student, and pet care fits perfectly into my routine after classes, which usually finish early most days. I also have weekends free and love spending that time with pets! I am located right by Green Lake Park, which means lots of great walks and open space if your pet loves to play or explore the outdoors. For pets who prefer to relax, I’m always happy to have a cuddle buddy while I study, pets are absolutely allowed on my furniture! There’s room for every personality here!
“I have never used a service like Rover and was somewhat hesitant. Maggie and I both met SJ and immediately felt at ease. SJ caring for Maggie was like having my best friend look after her. So happy!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Meridian
Our cats were so thankful to have Christina watching them! Aside from the usual food and clean litterboxes, they got extra snuggles and playtime. We had frequent texts / photo updates about the cats while we were away and it was great to see how happy they were. Very thankful for the service, we'll use Christina again. She's always our first choice for cat sitting!
Roman is just wonderful with our German Shepherd. His communication is great, he’s super reliable, and always takes the extra time to make sure everything is taken care of. Our dog adores him, which is a real win. Overall, Roman takes a major stress out of travel because we never have to worry about our pup.
Hannah was friendly, lovely with Brando the Cat, and even introduced us to the Cat Litter Genie. We would have continued having her lovely visits for my mom and my mom's cat, but my mom had to relocate to another assisted living facility outside of Seattle. Thank you, Hannah.
Jasmine was AMAZING and a lifesaver this trip! She was to helpful and kind when my auto feeder glitched and even said she could come back every day and night to feed my little Minnie moo. Thank you so much for allowing me to stress so much less on my vacation
Sydney did such a wonderful job taking care of my senior cat Luna! My cat needs liquid medication mixed in her wet food twice a day and Sydney went above and beyond to try different combinations of wet food to ensure my cat would finish her dose. She gave very thorough written reports and was very communicative, and kept my cat company beyond the required 30 minute period since she gets pretty lonely. I would definitely hire her again the next time I need a 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 .
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 , 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 .
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.
