“We are so grateful to have crossed paths with Madelyn on Rover! She has watched our dogs twice now, both on short notice and has been so accommodating and flexible. She is now at the top of our list any time we need to consider a pet sitter for some time away! Every time our dogs spend time with her, we can tell they were loved and cared for, and our home is always very well taken care of! Madelyn truly goes above and beyond for her clients and is the best pet sitter we have ever had. She communicates thoroughly, and takes the time to make our pets comfortable- especially our special needs deaf dog. I Would absolutely recommend Madelyn to anyone looking for truly exceptional and dedicated service from a person who will love on your pets like her own. She’s truly a step above the rest!”
“Jessica came to our home for a drop in visit. She kept in contact with us and followed all care directions. I've used her in the past and will use her again. I definitely recommend.”
“Kelly is so sweet and takes such good care of my cat when we’re away! She goes above and beyond and I appreciate all the extra detailed notes she leaves. Would definitely recommend!”
“Isabella was wonderful! She stopped over a few days prior to meet and learn about what our pets needed while we were away which I appreciated. We will definitely book her again next time we are out of town!”
About: I had the privilege of caring for my rescue dog for 14 years and have spent years pet sitting for friends. I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities and always provide dependable, loving care so your pet feels right at home. I’m a teacher so my afternoons and summers are mostly free! I’m home around 3:45 every afternoon and have weekends, holidays and summers off. I would love to take your pet with me on my daily walks/hikes, or pet sit when needed. I coach soccer in the fall, so my afternoons are less available September - November. I’m open to all situations. Happy to house sit, or just pop in for regular walk breaks. I walk/hike every day and would love to take your pet on the trail too!
About: I've had cats my whole life and a dog for a little over 4 years. I love animals and will play with and hike with your dog (or cat) anytime! I'm familiar with prong collars, whistles and clickers and will use training techniques laid out by you for consistency I spend a lot of time with my animals daily, depending on my tasks, but their health and joy is a priority for me. I try to ensure I spend an hour focused on them each, every day. I'll follow any training requested, and use your queues and signals. I am familiar with prong collars, muzzles and most leash types and have even walked cats before. We'll have adventures and stay healthy together.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for shy, timid pets who need gentle reassurance. I’ve fostered 60+ rescue dogs and have years of experience helping anxious pups feel safe, calm, and cared for. My focus is overnight, in-home sitting so your pets can stay in their normal routine—sleeping in their own beds, in the place they feel most comfortable (no boarding stress). I am happy to send photos and updates of your pets while you're away so you can enjoy your travels knowing they are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love. While you’re away, I also treat your home with respect and care: bringing in mail/packages, rotating lights, watering plants, and keeping things tidy. Expect reliable communication, photo updates, and calm, steady care—walks, playtime, enrichment, snuggles, and support for separation anxiety/routines. I work full time for a nonprofit with some remote work flexibly as needed. My schedule is an 8 hr work day and start and end times can be adjusted as needed. I am experienced with crate training, basic obedience, special diets, walking, mental stimulation and calming techniques and lots of love, affection and snuggles. Services can be modified for the specific needs of your dog(s) or cat(s).
About: I love taking care of animals. Animal energy is something I love having in my life. I have had dogs and cats since I was born. Now I have my very own Border Collie named Iris who I love with all my heart. I was always interested in animal care bathing walking cooking my own dog special food. I recently made the decision to leave my place of employment after 25 years. So now I can commit to animal care as much or as little as I can. I don't have a routine yet but hopefully I will establish one soon. I have done numerous overnights with up to 4 dogs. I ask the owners for a printed copy of each dogs habits, routine and exercise preferences. Also if the dog has any leash or food aggression.
“We recently added a new cat to our family and were a bit anxious about leaving both kitties while we were away. Kathryn gave us a completely worry-free experience! She treated our cats like they were her own—playing with them, interacting daily, and making sure they felt loved and cared for. We received detailed updates and adorable daily photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Her service was worth every penny, and we’ll absolutely be reaching out to Rover and Kathryn again the next time we travel. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! I’m Heather, and what sets me apart from other dog sitters is the level of compassionate, personalized care I provide. With years of experience caring for all types of animals, I understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention they deserve. I’m here to make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve also fostered kittens, so I’m comfortable with multi-pet homes and understand the importance of adapting to each animal’s unique personality and routine. Your pets won’t just be looked after—they’ll be treated like family. My work schedule is on Monday-Friday from 830-430. However, accommodations can be made if necessary. I am completely free and around on Saturdays and Sundays. I cannot care for pets in my home because I have pets of my own and other household members, but I am available to care for pets at the clients home.
“Kim was a great sitter for my special needs cat. She gave him the care and attention he needed and made sure I was updated on whether he’d gone to the bathroom. I also appreciate her willingness to care for him over the holidays - it was a huge help since we could not be home with him!”
“I have a senior dog and I have a cat that hides every time Tammie comes to my house. Which is, uh, fine, because the cat always hides. However, she is so wonderful with my senior dog. She lets him out as many times as he asks. She makes sure that he is OK outside. She never lets him be alone. Uh, she's always checking his food and. Is water. She's also always checking the food in the water for my cat that hides all the time. She is a wonderful caregiver. Compassionate. Absolutely thorough. Wonderful. With my dog. I can't tell you more wonderful things about her because she is fantastic.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since 2019. I watched neighbors dogs while they would go to work or vacation. I have experience with puppies since 2019 also. I work part time.

I’ve had more than 11 animals my whole life growing up (5 dogs) (4 cats) (2 two fish) I would say I’m extremely experienced in caring for animals. Professionally my experience would be under a year as I am still in school, I live on 67 acres and a large yard which will give your dog enough room to run with the wind and enjoy the fresh air.

I require a meet and greet with the pet beforehand to make sure we are a good fit, I would not want your precious pet to be stressed or anxious!
About: I am currently in training to become a certified dog trainer. I am able to offer basic and puppy training at this time. I have around 18 years of pet care experience.

I have also worked for a prominent doggy day care that has locations across the country.

Madelyn was wonderful and took great care of my fur baby even when my driveway was covered in snow and also helped us out over Christmas! Our cat is a needy boy and usually complains a lot when we leave but he didn’t seem to mind this time. Would definitely recommend!

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 .

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.
