About: As a lifelong dog lover and dog owner, I’ve been caring for pets since I was young. Over the last 4 years, I’ve house sat and cared for dogs for friends and family, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, routines, and overnight care. I also help care for my roommate’s dog regularly, so I’m comfortable with the daily responsibilities that come with keeping pets happy, safe, and on schedule. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for yours like they’re part of my own family. I currently have a job where I work remotely for half the week and I am home on the weekends. I am free for boarding wednesdays after 4 through the weekend. I have a very flexible schedule at work so would be able to extend trips when needed! I currently have a large backyard that is fully fenced in and plenty of safe neighborhoods nearby for long walks. Caring for pets inside I have a clean home with no clutter to be sure the pets are safe with nothing to get into. I enjoy spending time with pets so am always playing and cuddling with them! When I am away I would always be sure they are safe and happy before leaving and could lock them up if need be but with my animals I like to let them roam when I am not home.
“John has been very professional. It was easy to communicate with him about what I needed and how, and then John was able to follow through with it. I would recommend him to anybody that is interested as long as it didn’t take him away from us lol He is genuine and I can see how much he really cares about my puppy. Most importantly he is dependable and great at communicating each day and documenting a video to send so I can smile during my very busy days at work.”
“Demi was top-notch. She was prompt, sent messages to maintain communication, and followed directions in caring for our two, large dogs. We were really pleased and will definitely hire her again.”

About: Lifelong animal lover with years of experience, caring for a senior dog on weekends and weekdays as needed. As a pet owner to both a bunny and a cat, I understand the importance of reliable, compassionate care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and am committed to providing a safe, fun, and positive experience for your furry family members. 🐾 Because I work part-time, my schedule changes weekly, but I’m usually available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I also have some weekends free, depending on my work schedule. I’m very flexible and always willing to work with pet parents to find a schedule that works best. Whenever I have availability, I’m happy to help with last-minute pet care requests! Since I am unable to host pets in my own home, I provide care in your pet’s familiar environment. I understand that trust is important when inviting someone into your home, and I always treat both your home and pets with respect and care. I follow instructions closely and do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special requests. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

Josephine is someone you will be very happy with and thankful for.😊❤️
I have been using Kayla for about 40years now. She is very caring and spends quality time with my cat Lucy. I always receive a few photos just so I can see how she’s doing. Kayla has offered to water my plants in the past or any little thing that she thinks might be helpful to me. I will definitely be using her 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 Merrimack 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.

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.
