“Amanda was wonderful with my two dogs during the two weeks I was away. She came by every morning for their play and potty break, and they absolutely loved her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and cared for. I’m very grateful for her reliability, kindness, and the way she connected with my girls. Highly recommended!!”
“Tara is a fantastic sitter! She took great care of our cats while we were out of town for the holidays. She is prompt, communicative, kind, and professional in all her interactions. This was our first time ever using Rover so we were a tad nervous to book, but as soon as we met Tara we knew it was a great fit! We will definitely be booking Tara to watch our cats on our future trips.”

About: Hi! My name is Cassi, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 5 years. I have experience caring for animals in veterinary clinics, emergency medicine, and animal shelters, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities! I currently work at a veterinary clinic in Benton as a veterinary technician, and I have also worked in an emergency veterinary clinic as a technician and at an animal shelter where I cared for a wide variety of animals. Because of my veterinary experience, I’m comfortable recognizing when something seems “off” and know how to safely care for pets with medical or special needs. One of my biggest strengths is caring for pets who require medications or extra attention. I’m experienced with administering oral medications, injections, and insulin, and I’m comfortable following detailed medication schedules and special care instructions. I also have a soft spot for senior pets! I personally cared for my senior hound who was diabetic, so I understand how important patience, consistency, and extra care can be for older pets. I’m also very comfortable with anxious, shy, or more difficult pets. Working in veterinary medicine and animal shelters has taught me that every animal is different. Whether your pet is a happy-go-lucky dog who wants to play all day, a nervous pup who needs some time to warm up, or a shy kitty who prefers to hide and observe, I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the care they’re comfortable with. I have plenty of experience with dogs as well! While working at the shelter, I regularly took dogs on walks and hikes, played with them, and worked with dogs with all kinds of temperaments. I love getting outside, going for walks, playing, and making sure pets get the exercise and enrichment they need. I also have a young Beagle puppy of my own, Maisie, who is very friendly and would love a playmate! If your dog enjoys other dogs and you’re comfortable with it, Maisie can tag along for walks or visits. Of course, this is completely optional and I’m happy to provide one-on-one care if your pet would prefer to have me all to themselves. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I also understand how reassuring it is to know how your pet is doing while you’re gone, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout my visits. Whether your pet needs a simple potty break and some playtime, a long walk, medication, senior care, or just someone to keep them company while you're away, I would love the opportunity to care for them! Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like my own. ❤️🐾 I am currently in school and work at a veterinary clinic part time but I am mostly free in the mornings and late afternoons. I am free most weekends. My schedule can vary so we can 100% work out times that work for you! I care for every pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. This includes following feeding schedules, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m very comfortable following detailed care instructions and caring for pets with special needs, including senior pets and pets requiring medications or insulin injections. I also understand that some pets are nervous or anxious around new people, so I’m patient and allow them to warm up to me at their own pace. I always prioritize safety and supervision, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just as they would be at home. ❤️🐾
About: I have taken care of many different dogs over the last 4 years. I’ve watched older, young, big, and small dogs and even cats! I would watch my friends dogs and they would pass my name along to their friends I am currently working an 8 to 5. But I have a lunch break and most my evenings are free! I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening times. I live in a first floor apartment with plenty of space for your fur baby to play! I have a cat of my own who would love to meet a new friend!
About: I’m a third-year veterinary technology student at Murray State. I have 4 years of hands-on experience working at a dog daycare, boarding, and grooming facility in Indianapolis. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, gaining experience with feeding, exercise, playgroups, basic grooming, and safe handling. I currently work at the facility seasonally when I return home to Indianapolis. I also have experience caring for cats and horses. I have my own cat, live with a roommate who has a cat and two horses, and over the summer I gained hands-on experience interning with horse rehabilitation. Through my veterinary technology education and hands-on animal care experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and overall well-being. I truly love working with animals and take pride in providing safe, attentive, and individualized care for every pet. My schedule as a student-athlete at Murray State is structured, which allows me to plan my pet-care responsibilities around my classes and track practices. I have morning practices and some afternoon practices throughout the week, with classes primarily in the middle of the day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I don’t have classes on Tuesdays or Thursdays, giving me more flexibility to provide longer visits and more consistent care on those days. I’m very responsible with my time and would make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need while fitting their routine into my schedule. I take the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet very seriously. As a third-year veterinary technician student and someone with 4 years of experience working at a dog daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, I’m comfortable recognizing different behaviors, handling animals safely, and paying attention to changes in their health or routine. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets are in a clean, secure, and comfortable environment. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while they’re in my care.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, and my love for them started at a very young age! Over the years, I’ve had experience with dogs of all different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, which has helped me become comfortable and confident caring for a wide variety of pups. I understand that every dog is different, and I love taking the time to get to know their individual personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks and playtime or would rather spend the day getting belly rubs and cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member, spend some quality time with them, and give them plenty of love and attention while they’re in my care! 🐾❤️ My availability varies throughout the week, but I’m typically available in the evenings from 6–10 PM for walks, drop-ins, potty breaks, and playtime. I’m also available some weekends with open availability throughout the day, making it easy to fit your pup’s needs into my schedule. I’ll always keep my Rover calendar updated so you know when I’m available! I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and feeding if needed. I’m also happy to give lots of cuddles and love! I understand that every dog has a different personality and comfort level, so I’ll always adjust my care to what makes your pet feel happiest and safest.
“Kristen was great and such a life saver! Was able to schedule her for a last minute drop in. She has great communication skills and I appreciate her willingness to still go to apartment after trying to find it for 30 minutes. Would definitely use again”
“I didn’t worry about my cats at all, I knew that they were in very capable hands. Bree was able to get them to come out of hiding and interact with them. She’s wonderful and I highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: Veterinary technician with clinical experience, skilled in medications, senior and anxious pet care, and recognizing illness. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and focused on low-stress handling techniques. I provide consistent, reliable care with flexible availability for drop-ins, walks, and extended visits. I’m most available Thursday through Sunday and can accommodate a wide range of scheduling needs. With a veterinary technology background, I prioritize safety and low-stress handling. I carefully follow routines, monitor for health changes, and ensure a clean, secure environment while providing attentive, compassionate care in your home.
“Ayla-Lynette did an amazing job with my two kitties, one of whom required daily injections and was not easy! Was so grateful that they were in her care, she was wonderful at keeping me updated and sending photos in the lake. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this, she will take wonderful care of your animals. Thank you again Ayla-Lynette!”
About: I have taken care of my own dog since we have got her, aswell as dog sitting for others, or doing pop in checks since I have been able to drive! I have taken care of dogs all sizes and ages! I am currently enrolled in classes at Murray State, however I am not in classes for longer than 2 hours everyday, so I have plenty of time every morning, afternoon, and night to care for animals or homes! I live in dorms at Murray State, so I am unable to bring any animals into my dorm. However I am more than able to drive to your home to care for your animals, whether it is walking them, feeding them, bathing them, or simply putting them in a crate for you!
“Alyssa took care of my most beloved dogs for almost 3 weeks and she did a fantastic job!! I got updates with pictures after every visit. The dogs learned to trust her and she became family to them. Thanks for taking this huge burden off my shoulders, I haven't left my dogs in someone's care for the last 12 years. I can highly recommend Alyssa , especially for people with older dogs. She was awesom. Thank you Alyssa❤️🩷🧡”

Kaitlyn did an amazing job ensuring our animals were well cared for. Her communication was great, and she followed all instructions perfectly. She even captured accurate, funny moments of our pets that we loved. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands—especially the one requiring medication. Highly recommend!

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 Murray 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.
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 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.
