“Very responsive to the communication as well as keeping me up to date on daily visits. Also, felt assured the dogs were being taken care of by someone that is dedicated to pet care!”
“Hope is amazing!! Had a long work day and so she came for a drop in. Sat outside with them and sent pictures with their report card explaining how they did and followed all the instructions! So glad we found someone reliable to look after the babies when we need to be gone for long hours!!”
“Kelly was simply Amazing at taking great care of all of our babies while we were out of town. Always right on time, she gave them loads of love and excellent care. Lots of pics sent and updates at every visit. Fantastic communicator. I think they were all a bit sad to see us come home to be honest:) Could not recommend her more!! I would give 100 stars if I could!”
“Carley was amazing taking care of our pups! She was prompt and kept us updated on everything and we really appreciate her. We’d recommend Carley to everyone. Will definitely be using her services again!!!”
“Erin was amazing to hire for our two cats. I know they were happy and well cared for! As for going the extra mile; there was a wind storm while we were gone, some things blew all over the yard. Erin was kind enough to pick up, so we didn't lose our kid's toys. Will definitely use her again when needed!”
About: I have 4+ years of experience with many types of animals including dogs, cats, and even bunnies. I’m an animal lover who just wants to be surrounded by them as much as possible. I can train as I’ve had 3 dogs myself in which I’ve pretty much trained all 3. I am doing online school right now and have a bunch of free time to take care of the pets in need, but would prefer weekdays. I have a fenced yard with PLENTY of room. Very spacious living space where they can roam if wanted and just to have in general.
About: I love going on walks and hikes with dogs. My dog is a senior dog now at 12 years old and has hip issues. She doesn’t get to do that anymore. I know how much dogs love to walk. I recently retired a few months ago, so my schedule is pretty flexible to meet the needs of the clients. I have to be busy. I have a fenced in yard myself but I go out with my own dog. I will go out with your dog as well to ensure safety.
“We have a pretty challenging dog and she was so great with him. She came over for a meet and greet before hand and that was so nice. He was nervous at first and not his friendliest self and she was able to win him over quickly and become his bestie for the week. Couldn’t be happier with her!!!”
“She took such good care of my baby boy. Marshall is a very nervous and timid dog, so I knew he would probably be very scared when she came in to let him out, but she took the time to just sit with him and see that he was comfortable before taking him outside. Will definitely use her again!”
“Highly recommend she truly loved on our boy while we were gone definitely will be booking again when going out of town ! Also sent extra pictures because my son liked looking at them!”
About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! I offer a warm home where your dog becomes part of the family. I live with two friendly, playful resident pups who love meeting new friends—so your dog will always have companionship, social time, and plenty of snuggles. I accept dogs on the furniture (couches = cuddle central!), follow your pup’s routine closely, and create a calm, personalized experience tailored to their needs. Whether your dog requires daily medication, struggles with anxiety, or just wants a cozy, loving place to relax while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. While I don’t have a fenced yard, your dog will enjoy plenty of outdoor time on our property. More land = more sniffing adventures. I only care for a few dogs at a time so I can give each one the love and attention they deserve. I treat every dog like my own—with patience, affection, and lots of tail wags! I live in a one level house with only about 4 steps to get into the front for any senior dogs. 📝 Things to Know • No fenced yard, but we play regularly • Dogs allowed on furniture • Two playful, friendly resident dogs • Comfortable with meds & special needs. • Flexible pick-up/drop-off • I care for only a few dogs at a time for high-quality, focused attention Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life—I plan my days around the dogs! I work from home and rarely gone for long spurts. We stick to a consistent routine that includes morning and evening meals, playtime, and cuddle breaks throughout the day. Your pup will get plenty of attention, structure, and affection every single day, just like my own dogs do. I provide a calm and loving environment where dogs can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each pet’s individual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, meds, and crate use (if preferred). Dogs are welcome on the furniture, and they’ll have my two friendly pups as built-in companions for play and company. I keep the home clean, cozy, and supervised, so every dog feels like part of the family.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
“Kayla is great. We had a last minute change in our schedule and she was able to pop in to play with the puppies taking a lot of stress off us for the day. She is so good with our babies!!”
“Doug was great; he went above and beyond what was expected. There is some sibling rivalry between my two cats and he made sure both of them had a chance to eat by sticking around and feeding them in separate rooms if need be. He also kept an eye on the house, and kept me informed of any suspicious activity in the neighborhood, made sure our windows were locked, took out the trash, etc. He was very communicative and responsive. This definitely made me feel more at ease during our trip. When the Microsoft crash shut all the airlines down, he reached out to see if our flight was affected and said he could keep feeding the cats if needed. I would highly recommend Doug for other pet owners, and would definitely use his services again in the future.”
“This was my first time using Brittany. She was great! She sent me pictures every time she came by to see Percy. She sent me pictures of my kitty loving on her, so I knew while I was gone my baby had a great time playing with Brittany. What really made me feel good and topped it all off was when I got back and Brittany came back to bring my key back, Percy RAN past me to Brittany!!! That made me feel great that I made the right decision on picking Brittany to watch my baby while I was gone!!! I will definitely be a returning customer!!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mitchellville
Amy was a great pet-sitter! One of her core strengths is her communication and response time. She also did a great job with our cat, Pho. Amy followed all of the pet-care instructions to the letter and I know Pho will want her back the next time we are out of town.

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 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.
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
