“Autumn is fantastic! Penny had such a great time with her today. They played and pottied and just hung out. My sweet baby girl is a bit agoraphobic, requiring tremendous patience in taking her outside. She did so well, I’m very proud of my girl. This entire experience was so cool. I hope to do this again and again, as I do so, I will book Penny time with Autumn every time!”
“Ryan was amazing! He was communicative, responded quickly and was more than happy to check on our pups while we were out of town. Next time we go somewhere, he will be our go-to!”
“Kelly took good care of my babies. She was super responsive and took the job on super short notice when I had a problem with my sitter while I was out of town. I would have liked the notes from the visit to be more detailed, but I would definitely book again! 🙂”
About: I used to have a senior Chihuahua and raised him since he was a puppy. I understand how a pet needs love and attention along with protection. I know what it’s like to not have time or anyone around to help out with pets, I hope to help create a safe and fun environment for your pets. 😊 I occasionally work overnights, otherwise I care for pets full time. I can provide the care needed as I am home all day. At night, my children and baysitter are home to be with one another and all the animals. There will always be someone home!:) Safety is a priority. Safety for pets and people, we have the space to care and room for comfort. There are places for pets to safely sleep if they don’t want to be around others too much. We have a fully fenced in yard as well as a safe neighborhood
About: I have experience caring for older dogs with medical needs. I work 8:30 to 5:30 but can stay at the residence outside of those hours. My only solid time commitments currently is needed for the family on Saturday mornings. I can easily talk on longer jobs as long as I have a few days notice. I try to leave the house as I found it when sitting in the clients house. I try to replicate their experience with their families in terms of how much they get out, where they go for dog parks, when they eat, etc
“Reed was amazing with our dog. Queso is known to be reactive and a bit of a grump, but Reed took the time to let him get comfortable and ended up having a great time together. Highly recommend!”
“Casie is wonderful. She cared for Buku and sent me updates often. I was able to enjoy my trip fully knowing Casie was on the task of cat care. She also watered my plants. I will certainly be using her services in the future. Thank you Casie!”
“Bree is definitely an animal lover. She’s always so enthusiastic to check on my cat Micha, and sends lots of cute photos. She gives her lots of attention and it has improved her quality of life to have check ins when I’m gone from the house for a while. Would recommend.”
About: I have been around all kinds of animals my whole life. From dogs and rabbits to chickens and horses. I pet sit for my friends and family often. They have a range of dogs from 6 months old puppies that I will do some training with to 12 year olds that need tender love and care. I can keep up with the very high energetic dogs or just lounge around with a low energy dogs. I'm currently working part time so my work schedule is very flexible to fit around the your dogs needs. My normal weekday availability is mornings, evenings and a hour in afternoon for a lunch break. I’m available weekends also. I will follow each dogs established routines, including feeding, walks, and crating as the owner instructs with consistency and safety. I have experience with puppies, elderly, and multi dog households. I try to keep up with existing training and communicate clearly with lots of updates and photos of your pup!
“Bryce was a great sitter for my cats while I was out of town for a convention. I got lots of pictures and they got lots of pets and attention. I would definitely recommend Bryce to anyone looking for someone to look after their fur babies.”
About: Hello! Let me help you and your pet feel safe and secure. I've been a pet lover for years and now have the time to offer care on a larger scale. In the past I have fostered animals, primarily cats and dogs with the SPCA. During that time I worked with small and larger breeds of various personalities. I have the patience to work with dogs that may be anxious or shy, and dogs that are more rambunctious as well. I love learning about animals, and would even like to become a dog trainer. Let's connect! My schedule is flexible and open at this time. I can work mornings, afternoons, or evenings, and I'm always open to discuss what needs you may have. It's essential to build a relationship with the pet. You want the dog to feel secure, ensure that you can change behavior if needed, and pay attention so that they don't find themselves in trouble.
About: I've been a pet owner since I was a girl. Have always been good with animals. Just starting out professionally. However, your pet will be in good hands. I am a cat owner of a spoiled fat cat. Will be my main gig available 24/7 really. I don't sleep much, so I can pretty much always be on call. I am upbeat, loving person, who likes to laugh. And I will admit I love animals more than people. My kitty is chipped and indoor. He lol it's a chubby boy so I spoil him. I cant help it hes so cute. I can't deny a hungry animal. I trained him with my voice not even a spray bottle. Animals want to mind. I don't have a dog myself because I live in a small camper and I would want a big doggy lol
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover at heart who truly enjoys spending time with pets of all kinds. I’m gentle, kind, and very patient, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I recently lost my 9-year-old fur baby, and caring for other pets has been a beautiful way for me to stay surrounded by the love and joy animals bring. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for with me. I have experience with blind diabetic dogs and can givr insulin. I work from home and have a pretty open schedule that allows for drop in visits and walks. Some days I may have a conference call but its rare. I will always send video/photo footage of your pets while I am with them just for added security and peace of mind to you and your family.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have cared for pets my whole life. Growing up with several dogs and now raising my own one-year-old corgi, Chester, has given me hands-on experience in providing consistent love, structure, and attention. I’ve also worked with a Humane Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I treat every fur baby like they are my own! Pet care is already part of my everyday life since I have my own corgi, Chester. Daily walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles are built into my routine, so caring for other pets fits in naturally. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and love throughout the day to make sure every fur baby feels safe and cared for. In my home, pets are welcomed as part of the family. They’ll enjoy daily walks, playtime, and cuddles, plus the company of my friendly corgi, Chester. I also have access to a large unfenced yard and nearby dog parks, so pups get plenty of safe exercise and social time. I make sure they feel comfortable and loved while sticking to their normal routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely, keeping feeding, walking, and play schedules consistent so pets feel secure and at ease.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Never stepped foot into my home without a very excited welcoming committee (that’s what we call our 4 dogs when they greet us at the door). That is until I came to college and no longer get any happy welcoming committees at the door. I miss it. So I am just hoping to help out others while also helping my self :). With that, I have experienced it all. Medications, cleaning, clipping nails, pills, and expert tosser for dogs that love fetch. My family and I have always gravitated towards big dogs but I love all shapes and sizes. I am a very active person and love to go on walks all of the time, so why not have the opportunity to bring a furry friend along! At home I am gentle and kind to my pets. Give them plenty of loving, pets, and a firm believer in walks. Long walks. Dogs make me happy, so I want to make them happy.

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.
