“So thankful Hope agrees to take care of our senior kitty when we are away. She is tuned into his needs and works so hard to keep him happy. She is also great at working on getting him to take his pill medication. We’d be at a loss without her!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and currently care for my own dogs, bird, and aquariums every day. Friends and family have trusted me to help care for their pets while they’re away. My background in healthcare has taught me to be dependable, detail-oriented, and calm in unexpected situations. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and will keep my Rover calendar updated so it always reflects my availability. I make pet care a priority and enjoy spending quality time with animals through walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will follow your instructions and routines to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I know every pet is different because I’ve experienced that with my own dogs. One of my dogs has epilepsy and takes medication on a strict schedule, so I understand how important routines, careful observation, and clear communication are. I have a fenced backyard and will follow your pet’s feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions exactly as you ask. Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I’ll treat them with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.
“They were so good with Layla. They took care of all her needs, and then some! I got to see daily pictures which let me know that she was in good hands. I can't say enough about how much I appreciated the care that was given.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for neighbors, family, and friends since I was about six years old. My experience includes walking, feeding, playing, and keeping pets on their usual routines while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including older dogs that need a slower pace. I also have experience with cats and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I focus on being dependable, attentive, and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I am unable to come for pets in my own home but am more than comfortable coming to yours. I am very mindful of peoples spaces and always try to keep the home in the same condition I left it. Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know as much as I can about them! Tell me their favorite toys and games, things they dislike (walks on leashes, paws being touched, etc.), silly quirks they may have, medication details and administration, fears or triggers they have and what to do if these arise, and any unconventional behaviors or references you guys may have. I also want to hear what you love about your pet. What are some ways I can care for them while making sure they are still getting the love and comfort they get from you? I am a full-time online grad student. I am working part time in the area and my schedule is very consistent and not flexible. I work Tuesday-Saturday 11:30am-4:30pm. Please make sure this works with your pets schedule before reaching out. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in my client’s home. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always supervise pets during walks and playtime. I keep environments clean, calm, and low-stress, and I’m careful to notice any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“We chose Chantal because of her great reviews, and we're so glad we did! Everything you read about her is true. Chantal was responsive and kind, and our cat Oliver loved her visits. She kept us updated and notified us of any changes. We especially loved all the pictures! It was our first time leaving Oliver at home, but having Chantal stop by put our minds at ease. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Matthew was prompt for each drop in. He provided alerts to me while out if town about sone behavior my dog had done as well as some trash in the yard that not previously been there. I appreciated the co.munication level proivided. I would highly recommend Matthew for any drop in needs”
“Jocelyn has been wonderful! She communicates well and provides great feedback and pictures. Murphy loves her and gets lots of playtime with her. Grateful we found such a reliable fur-friend!”
About: Grew up with dogs and now have two Golden babies at home. Love to play and interact with them so they feel secure and loved. Used to high energy pups and willing to take the extra time to make sure they get their energy out. I am a Real Estate Agent. So, my schedule is flexible. I am usually available after 7am and up until 10pm. I am used to entering homes, since my job requires me to. I am reliable and honest. I have watched my friend's dogs for many years. I am comfortable with walking your dogs and playing with them in the yard or inside. I enjoy the time with them as I am a huge lover of all dogs.
About: I've trained service dogs and puppies. I've also cared for multi-animal (species and number) households and I've been doing so my whole life. Whether the dog is big or small, I'd love to help! Pet care is an integral part of my daily or weekly routine. I have ADHD that leans towards forgetting to do stuff for myself. To counter that, I connect my human activities with my pet activities. Like "I fed the dogs and cats" and then the next sentence is "Oh! I will feed myself too!" I have crate trained dogs before and can reinforce that training to ensure that dogs feel safe and secure in their resting area. I like to familiarize myself with their habits. For instance, where does your dog like to go for a walk? How do they exercise? What's their favorite treat and when do they usually get them? Do they like doing a particular activity? This is my client's home and with that it is my client's pet's home. I take that to heart and try to embed these habits into their daily routine so that they can be cared for well and in the way that they know.
“Susan did a fantastic job caring for my 2 kitties! They got lots of attention and were super comfortable with her. She went above and beyond , cleaning their water fountain and the water they drink from on the deck as well. I would definitely recommend her!! 👏👏👏”
“Jenny never disappoints! She works hard to gain the trust of your pets. She is not a pet sitter that sits and watches TV and waits for the pets to approach her. Best pet sitter you could have! Thanks, Jenny!”
“Very helpful and professional! Reasonable prices and great work with our pups. She even brought a package in off our porch! I would definitely recommend her and will book with her again.”
“This was our first time having Claire do drop in visits for our dog, and she was awesome! She let us know when she arrived and sent pictures every day so we knew he was being well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Claire the next time we need a caregiver for our dog.”
About: I’m athletic and am able to go for long walks/ runs, big dogs don’t scare me and I’m prepared for anything that your pet has to offer. I’m available from the morning to 4pm each day and then I work night night job. I’m able to come by after usually around 8:30. A total of 14 hours I’m able to be there for you. I have a fully fenced yard along with 3 dogs of my own, all silly in their own way. I’m very familiar with the different personalities dogs have to offer
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats since I was 11, including during their illnesses and senior years. Friends and family often ask me to house-sit, feed, entertain, and care for their pets while they are out of town for any amount of time. I have a wide range of experience including kittens, birds, rodents, and large dogs. I currently work part-time/seasonal on a flexible schedule. I am available for all kinds of care outside these hours, including walks, drop-ins, and home sitting. I live in a home with a fenced yard with my three pets, which does not make it ideal for hosting. I do live in a fairly quiet neighborhood where I am able to walk dogs for a long distance without much strain.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and caring for them has always been my second nature to me. My parents currently board dogs at our house, so I’ve gotten to know all kinds of dogs with all kinds of personalities. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, mealtime, or just making them feel comfy and loved, I’m all about making sure every dog feels right at home. I'm currently home for the summer and don't have any other jobs. So, I am available pretty much every day throughout the week, and anytime. Just depending on if I have any trips or events planned. When I care for pets in their home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how comforting it is for pets to be in their own space, so I make sure to follow their usual schedule for meals, walks, and playtime. I’ll give them plenty of attention, snuggles and keep their environment clean and cozy. Whether it’s sticking to special instructions, administering medication, or just making sure they get their favorite treat after a walk, I treat every pet like my own and every home with respect.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Century
I can't recommend Montana enough! She took wonderful care of our pup, Lola. Lola tends to be fearful around new people and usually barks a lot at first, but Montana was incredibly patient and gave her the time and space she needed to feel comfortable. They ended up getting along great and built a really sweet bond. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Lola was in such good hands. We'll definitely be booking her again!

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.
