“Alexis is our go to sitter for kitties and our pup. She’s been our ONLY sitter for over a year and we hope for many more. She’s reliable and always is willing to give a little extra attention!”
About: When my sister and I were younger we went around our neighborhood and helped take care of any pets in need. Having two dogs of my own I be understand the love pets deserve. New to Rover but not at all new to caring for pets. I take on personal clients that have been with me for years! I have plenty of time to watch your pets! Whether it’s for one night or a week, I’m available! Depending on your specific requests I can just be a little present or be there at all times. I currently reside in a gated community that is fenced. I know majority of the neighboring residents so there will never be any issues with any pets.
About: I’m home full-time. I have 1 female Aussie and 3 indoor cats. I have been an avid animal advocate my whole life. I have rescued many kittens and have neonate experience. I do have a pool that is open for dogs who like to swim. I also have a very large yard to roam and play in. I treat my pets like family and I will do the same for yours. I treat the animals like they are my children. I make sure their needs are taken care of. I have a daily routine of bathroom, feeding, play, rest, walks, etc. if a dog likes car rides, I will take them with me to run errands or go get a puppy patty at In n Out or puppachino at Starbucks. Oak Glen is close to me and I do like taking a 15-20 min drive up the mountain and going for hikes. Dogs welcome in all establishments. Because I am home I am able to give quality time to my family and pets. My home is still full. I have 3 adults in their early 20’s continuing school for careers. They are very helpful as well in all animal care. I have a huge fenced yard with a pool. I am outside with the animals usually gardening or enjoying the pool myself. I accompany them in the morning and at night to potty. Always watching. I am ok with dogs on my couch, but do have clean dog beds as well. If overnight, I would arrange a similar arrangement to what they are used to. I have dog beds in my master bedroom next to me or they can be in a crate if necessary for their comfort. Water bowls are inside and outside. I feed morning and evening. I try to stick to what works best based on dogs health and energy.
About: Hi! I’m Abbagayle — a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to each dog’s routine and comfort. I always prioritize safety and clear communication, and I love sending updates so you feel totally at ease while your pup is with me. I work a 9–5 Monday through Friday, but I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, check-ins, and care. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or someone to make sure they’re happy and comfortable while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for every step of the way. Every pet and household is different, so I’m happy to discuss exactly what you’re looking for through Rover messages or during our meet & greet. We’ll go over your pet’s routine, care expectations, and any applicable additional charges before the booking is confirmed, so everything is clear ahead of time. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog in my care with the same level of attention and love that I give my own pup at home. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level so I can create a calm, positive experience tailored to their needs. I’m attentive, gentle, and patient, and I communicate frequently so you can feel confident that your pup is safe, happy, and in good hands. When your dog is with me, they’re treated like family — with structure, supervision, attention, and lots of love.
“What a caring a loving individual. If you want someone to love your animals as much as you do, Elaine is your gal! She’s so sweet, trustworthy, and will go that extra mile to send you photos of your furry friends while you’re away! 🥰”
“Malia was so helpful for a last minute drop in booking! She handles my big pup and grouchy senior perfectly! They seemed happy and comfortable with her and I am so happy I hired her through rover.”
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds for over 32 years. As a young child, I was drawn to just about any animal you can think of. I am very detailed and will put your pets first. I am recently retired but now work a couple of days a week, but for only 1/2 days. I do have flexibility in my schedule. My dogs have a safe fenced in area but spend most of their time indoors. I walk and/or exercise them at least two times a day. One of my dogs has medical needs that I handle. My donkeys' food is weighed out to avoid obesity. I think it is important that I earn the trust of a new animal and build on that. Exercise and training can be helpful to pets that will be spending time alone. I am a firm believer that each animal is unique and requires an approach that works for them.
“Evelyn was amazing! She was nice, professional, and a great communicator. I had issues with my travels and she was understanding and willing to work with me. Definitely would book again!!”

About: I’m an experienced, intuitive dog caregiver who blends calm confidence with playful, genuine affection. I’ve worked with pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m especially skilled at reading body language, easing anxiety, and building trust with shy or energetic dogs. My hospitality background shows up in the way I communicate clearly, stay organized, and anticipate both the dog’s needs and the owner’s peace of mind. Whether it’s maintaining routines, handling medication, managing multi‑dog households, or keeping high‑energy pups happily engaged, I bring steady reliability and a warm, joyful presence that dogs connect with right away. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I work part‑time on weekends and I’m on summer break from school. I have plenty of open time during the week for walks, drop‑ins, and longer visits, and I balance my weekend job with consistent pet‑care hours. This flexibility lets me give each pet focused, reliable attention and maintain steady routines for kittens, senior cats, pregnant cats, and dogs alike. I provide a calm, stress‑free environment for every pet I care for. In my home, I offer a quiet space with no children, a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, and a relaxed atmosphere where pets can settle in comfortably. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether I’m hosting or visiting, I focus on safety, consistency, and creating a peaceful experience for each pet.

I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs and routine. I love building relationships with both pets and their owners, and my goal is always to make sure your furry family member feels happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, feeding, medication administration, playtime, and companionship.

“Susana was fantastic! Beforehand, she came over for a meet and greet and was great with our dog and cat. They were well cared for the day of the drop-in and she took great care of our senior dog and her medication needs. We are absolutely looking forward to being repeat clients.”

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.
