“Sophie was great with our dog. She left detailed descriptions of her drop-in visits, which were greatly appreciated. That gave us the peace of mind. Our dog loved her and was very excited to see her. Thank you, Sophie!”
About: I've spent my entire life around dogs and currently have 2 huskies named Ella and Zoey (RIP 🌈). Ella and I take walks multiple times per day so I'm used to walking multiple dogs in every type of weather (rain, sleet, snow and sunshine). I work from home full-time and have a very flexible schedule so I can be available at multiple times a day to walk your dog(s). I'd like to know how your dog(s) react while walking to other dogs, loud noises, other people. My dogs love walks so if our dogs get along they would LOVE to come along.
“Melanie impressed me from the start! This was the first time leaving my two kittens (5 months) over the weekend. But I felt 100% comfortable with Melanie, from our meet and greet through the end of my time away. I would recommend her for sure.”
“My cat son really likes Barb and she's officially "His sitter!" Barb is such a sweet lady! I was terrified of leaving my cat home alone but she assured me everything would be ok and it was.”
“Kathy is a wonderful pet sitter! Her check-ins were right on time and provided a nice recap of her visits with our pup along with lots of photos that were fun to see while we were away from home for the weekend. We will definitely be asking her to watch over our pets again for our next trip!”
“William did a wonderful job caring for my cats. He was prompt each day; gave fun updates on the girls eating, play, etc; and made time to pet and play each day. He performed all daily activities I requested. Would highly recommend.”
About: Dogs have been my favorite animals since I was born. I have worked at a doggy daycare and kennel where I supervised dogs during playtime, ensure all dogs were well taken care of, and gave food, water, and meds to the dogs. I’m passionate about the well-care of dogs and I will make sure your dog is happy and comfortable. I am a recent college graduate living at home, so I currently have lots of free time. My availability is very flexible at this time. I have a large yard to play with dogs and plenty of toys. I live close to a lake where I can take dogs on walks and swims. I will take as many photos and videos as you want. My main goal is that every dog is happy and taken care of in the way that fits their needs and personality because each dog is unique.

“Thankful to have met Haley and the care she provided for our two labradoodles. She was very conscientious and timely in her care of our dogs and communication with us. One of our dogs was sick (due to nervous anxiety) and she was great to care for her, clean up and communicate that as well!”

“Samantha has been doing drop ins with my dog for a couple of weeks now. She's been great, my dog loves her and is so comfortable with her, which is a relief as a mum of an anxious dog.

Alexia did a good job for me with day visits for my two senior dogs during a long weekend. She was located not too far from me. Communication with her was great and I received updates and pictures. There was an unanticipated schedule change for which I was given immediate notice and an immediate refund. This was my first experience with Rover.com and I am pleased with the service. I will be contacting Alexia for her services in the future.
Aubrey did a wonderful job dropping in for my dog Lou. Aubrey knew we’d be gone for a long day so she made sure to spend lots of time playing with Lou to get her energy out. She gave a cute picture and a very detailed update which reassured us that our sweet girl was in great hands and that all of our instructions were being followed perfectly. We will definitely be having Aubrey back again and highly recommend her!

- 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.

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 .
