“Madison was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to come meet my cats a few days before the visit, which gave me the opportunity to walk her through their routine in person. I really appreciated her willingness to do this, as it made me feel much more comfortable leaving them in her care. She was kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“Mackenzie was fabulous! Manny was well cared for and happy. I truly appreciate Mackenzie’s attention to detail with Manny’s senior care. I truly appreciated all the pictures and updates! Highly recommend!”

About: I have had dogs since the day I was born and am currently mommy to one dog, four cats, two goats and a sassy pet cow. I am located on a three acre farm on the outskirts of town in Marysville, Ohio, and offer services to most surrounding areas. I offer boarding, daycare, house/farm sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, livestock/exotic care, and more! I can assure you that your pet(s) could not possibly be in better hands! They will get all the love and attention that I would give my own ....and then some. I look forward to caring for your furred, feathered, hooved, and scaled family members real soon! :) My life and schedule is centered around my animals. I own a trailer rental company and can alter my schedule however is needed to make sure all animals in my care and on my schedule are well cared for. I care for my clients pets as instructed and love them as if they are my own. Animals rule the world here at the farm and are allowed on all furniture and beds. Roughly an acre is securely chain link fenced and gated for plenty of outdoor exercise, weather permitting.
About: Hi! My name is Lucy, and I'm a current veterinary student at the University of Illinois. I have previously pet sat for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and would love to care for your pet while you are away. I originally started pet sitting in high school (about 6 years ago) to gain animal care experience. Since then, I have worked at kennels and vet clinics and am learning new skills every day at school! I'm hoping to pet sit while I'm home during school breaks, so I am pretty flexible when it comes to my availability. I'll do my best to accommodate you and your pet's needs! Because of my family dog at home, I am currently only offering drop in visits, walks, care, etc. at your home. This is to guarantee the health and safety of all animals involved. While pet sitting, I love to keep you updated with photos and notes! If I notice anything at all, I will reach out to you so you can stay informed and make the best decision on how you would like me to proceed with the care of your pet.
About: I have a 5 year old German Shepherd mix. I have experience with: • medication feeding • 3-4 walks per day • vet visits if needed Working from home allows me to be with dogs almost 24/7. We have a very large open public park in the back of the condo for consistent exercise. I have a 5 year old German Shepherd mix. He loves chicken, nice naps, fetch, and long walks. We go to Heritage Trail Park, Glacier Ridge Park, etc every weekend! I’m attentive and responsible. Wherever your dog is, I’m there too! We have a very large open public park in the back of the condo for consistent exercise.
About: My family has had animals all my life and I always have felt drawn to all kinds of pets and feel like I get what they’re saying without speaking! I love energetic play and having full conversations with them. I’ve taken care of newborn cats and dogs to adult cats and dogs. No specific experiences with senior animals but willing to learn! I work a full time job from 8-5, Mon-Fri. But I am more than happy to spend each evening and morning as well as the weekends with your cute and furry family members! I will give them ample about of social and play time while also following family specific rules for crating or free roam time. I can take them to a dog park and be energetic with them if allowed and can give all animals cuddle time as they deserve!
“Erin was fantastic with our three older dogs during her drop-in visits this week. Taking care of senior pups requires a certain level of attentiveness, and Erin delivered. She was incredibly punctual, showing up right on time for every single visit, which kept our dogs on their necessary routine. Her communication was prompt and detailed, giving us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely work with Erin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life, meaning I understand how to interact and handle dogs of all ages. I also enjoy being around dogs so spending time with your pet will never feel like a chore or inconvenience. I’m a medical student at Ohio university (Dublin campus), so would be open to walking or house sitting pets as I can around my school schedule. I am reliable and responsible, meaning I will be respectful of the home I am in and make sure to understand the care I will be providing for the pet and I will show up when I need to, I will not leave any pet stranded.
About: I have cared for animals since I was a child, having been raised on a farm where we always had all sorts of animals, including dogs and cats. We have had such wonderful pet-sitters of our own, that I want to give back as well and provide that loving care to your family pet with the comfort of knowing they are being loved. Each person that shares their family pet with me can be assured they are receiving an abundance of love as if my own fur baby. I am a doodle mom that is in awe of the pure love that our animals give to us freely without hesitation. We do not deserve dogs, but we have been given them to experience unconditional love and pure joy! I am a work at home mom, who truly enjoys spending time loving on dogs. I have never met a dog that I did not like, and they simply put a smile on my face and a pep in my step! I always ask families what makes their pet feel safest when entering their home so that I can follow that routine. I will always come in and provide space and time before approaching your pet as a new person to them. Spending time with your pet in the home first is important before we go outside, as they need to feel safe and loved.

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
