About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years through fostering, pet sitting, dog walking, and volunteering with animal shelters. I’ve spent more than 10 years volunteering with shelters and also have experience helping train service animals, which has taught me so much about patience, consistency, animal behavior, and adapting to each pet’s individual personality and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies who need extra attention, exercise, and structure to senior pets who prefer a slower pace and a little extra patience and TLC. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, enrichment, and companionship while they’re with me. And because I know how much we all miss our pets when we’re away, you can expect plenty of photo updates so you can see what your best friend is up to! ❤️ I have a full-time job with flexible hours, which allows me to fit pet care into my schedule consistently. I’m most available on evenings and weekends, and I always make sure I have plenty of time to give each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need. I live in a house with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable and settle in. I’m very mindful about safety, routines, feeding instructions, and each pet’s individual needs. I also have a friendly 6-year-old cat who is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to use a crate if that is part of your dog’s normal routine, and I always do my best to keep pets feeling safe, relaxed, and at home.
About: I have owned bunnies & cats and currently own 2 precious little kitties! I am the first person family calls when they need help with their pets, as well. I work full-time during the day and am available before work and after! I am also available throughout the days most weekends. I can’t wait to spend time with your babies! I strive to provide animals with all of the respect and love they deserve! Animals are special creatures and sharing life with them is a blessing. I will go out of my way to treat your animals like my own.
About: I work for the Seeing Eye as a Dog Handler, as well as have work as a lodging worker at Morris Animal Inn. From these I learned how to work with a number of different dogs all with different personalities! My goal is to be able to provide the care that best supports each pet individually. I work a full time job Friday-Tuesday from 6:30am to 3:30am. I have an hour lunch break starting at 12. I am able to work around my work schedule to ensure your pet is getting plenty of attention. I am comfortable with outdoor or indoor play and walks. Keeping pets safe is my priority to ensure they have the best time! I’ve had experience with dogs who pull and don’t.
About: I’m a reliable and caring college student who genuinely enjoys being around animals. I’ve had my two cats for the past two years, so I’m used to feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable every day. I’ve also helped friends care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, playing with them, and keeping them company while they were away. Outside of pet care, I’ve worked as a private caregiver and in customer service, which has taught me how to be responsible, patient, and dependable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a loved one, whether it’s a person or a pet, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student and work part time so I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for.

I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you know your pet is in good hands. I know every pet has their own routine, and I always do my best to stick to it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve cared for my own two cats for the past two years and have also helped friends care for their dogs through feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. My experience as a private caregiver has taught me to be patient, dependable, respectful of other people’s homes, and attentive to small details, so you can feel confident that your pet will be treated like one of my own.

About: I have been the proud owner of my beloved dog for the past 12 years. After years of hoping for a dog, my parents finally agreed, and it's been an incredibly rewarding experience ever since. I thoroughly enjoy taking her on walks and engaging in playtime. Throughout high school, I began dog sitting, providing both daily and overnight care. I have experience working with dogs with anxiety, dietary restrictions, and specific behavioral concerns, such as fear of men. Additionally, I'm skilled in preparing homemade meals to cater to their individual needs. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I cook homemade meals for my dog both in the morning and evening, making sure she gets the nutrition she needs. I also take her on walks and play with her using her favorite toys, keeping her active and engaged. On top of caring for my own dog, l also dog-sit for other families, which adds to my weekly schedule. It's a fulfilling way to blend my love for animals with helping out others! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I prioritize their pets' routines and comfort. I ensure that each pet's dietary needs are met, following any specific instructions for meals and feeding schedules. I provide plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention to help them feel secure and happy, whether it's through walks, interactive play, or simply spending time with them. I make sure to follow any behavioral cues, respecting their space and boundaries, especially for pets with anxiety or specific preferences. I also keep the environment clean, ensuring their living spaces remain tidy and safe. Regular updates and communication with the client are key, so they're always informed and reassured that their pets are well taken care of.
“Rebecca was great with the house, cats and communication! One thing that stood out to me was her calm demeanor. My cats are freaked out by some people and take a little to warm up. They both liked her right away, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of and owned dogs of every kind and age since I was 5 years old. No dog is too big or too small! Too young or too old for me! My friends, family, coworkers and neighbors have all trusted me to care for their furbabies. I know how much mine mean to me, and I promise to treat yours as my own! I am currently working full-time as a teacher so weekdays have to be scheduled in advance after 5PM. Will gladly schedule weekend walks and drop-ins! I care for others’ fur babies as if they were my own! I am happy to accommodate whatever food, medication, or exercise needs they may have!
“Jordan is the best of the best! I knew she was the perfect fit, she is kind, understanding, communicates well and Titan was an immediate fan! She sends amazing pictures and videos too! I cannot recommend Jordan enough!”
“Ethan was fantastic watching my two cats while my family was on vacation. He fed them, cleaned out the litter box, and cleaned up the messes that one cat left on the floor in protest of us being away. Ethan was responsible, communicative, and trustworthy. I would use him again and would highly recommend him to others.”
About: I’ve taken care of all sized dogs since I can remember. Friends and family usually have relied on me to walk, feed, and love their pets.

About: Hiya, I'm Jackson! I've always loved dogs and cats, and enjoy providing a kind and gentle environment for them. And if I'm lucky, a playful one! I would be honored to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family is well taken care of. I am more than comfortable with dog walking and housesitting to accommodate both yours and your pet's needs. I have experience with large breeds like German Shepherds, and medium ones like Huskies and Pittbulls. My schedule is quite flexible, as I currently work from home. I also have my own car for transportation, so fitting into your schedule is made easier. I treat each pet with kindness and compassion. They are just as important as any other member of the household to me. They bring so much joy and peace to our lives I couldn't imagine treating them any other way.
“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!”
“Of course! Here’s a warm, concise review you could leave: Joanne took wonderful care of my cat while I was away.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
