“Dogs were fed, got attention and time outside, and happy! We left some detailed directions because one dog will get destructive when left alone, and Billy was great about making sure those things got done. Thank you so much! Would definitely reach out to him again”

About: Since a young age I've been caring for animals of all sizes. Whether it was finding a small homeless kitten and nursing it back to health at 7 years old, to starting my own dog walking service at 8, to currently working in an animal hospital caring for patients. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. My family has always known this was the field for me and I wouldn't change a thing. Even the most difficult animals deserve love, attention, and comfort. Big or small, I love them all. :) My current schedule varies between hours and days. Feel free with any questions or concerns you may have! Thank you so much for your time! i hope to hear from you shortly! I part time at a dental office, so this gives me more time to spend with your furbabies and sending updates on their staycation at home! Any updates to my schedule and I will immediately notify you. I have a fenced in large yard. My pets are crate trained but also enjoy company of friends! If your pet needs a more socially limited time, I am happy to accommodate that as well.
About: I am a full-time student and pet sitting is my only source of income, so I can do last minute house sitting or I can do drop in visits to check on your fur babies. I coordinate my other activities around house sitting schedule ,so your fur baby will always come first before anything else. I use a calendar so you will never have to worry about me forgetting to take care of your baby's I will always follow owner instructions ,I will keep in contact with them.

About: I’ve owned 5 dogs, pet sat for a dogs including a senior dog, trained and taken care of my own puppies, and don’t forget also cats! I am fully free to watch any animal at any time, I want this job to benefit me in my career but also as a human being helping you feel comfortable for someone watching your pets. All my dogs are crate trained, knows tons of tricks, and of course spoiled because they deserve it! Although my dogs don’t enjoy little kids very much, it is because they are very protective and unsure, due to my dogs all having a mix of border collie in them. Very protective
About: I have personally had pets since the day I was born, mostly dogs and cats, but also a snake and hamster, I started pet sitting when I was 14 and have experience with caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and horses. I know that your pet is a part of the family with a routine, personality, and individual needs so I am very conscientious about owner advice and instructions when it comes to their fur (or not so furry) baby. I love spending time with animals and where I live I can not unfortunately have dogs (I do have two cats though) so I feel the Oppertunity to walk dogs and do check ins on animals would be a fantastic way to get to spend time around them again. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of availability throughout the day and week to give your pets the time, care, and attention they deserve. Depending on the energy and type of animal as well as owner instructions I adjust my care schedule to thier needs. I either do drop in visits to a clients home or house sit in their home.

About: Hi! I’m Kiera, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years through neighbors, family friends, and personal experience. I started pet sitting and dog walking at 16 and have experience with drop-in visits, daily walks, overnight stays, medication administration, and caring for dogs with medical or special needs. I currently have a 1.5-year-old Standard Poodle, so I’m very familiar with high-energy, intelligent breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m also definitely the “crazy dog mom” who worries about every little thing and doesn’t trust just anyone with my baby — so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with. Because of that, I take communication, safety, and trust very seriously. I know pets are family, not “just dogs.” I bring patience, attentiveness, and compassion into pet care. I want pet parents to feel the same comfort and confidence that I would want for my own dog. I’m especially comfortable working with senior dogs or pets who may need extra patience and attention, as my two previous dogs had complex medical conditions that gave me extensive experience with medications, routines, and monitoring health concerns. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and dependable presence, I’m happy to adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐶✨ I currently am looking to do this full time so have complete open availability. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because caring for others — whether children or animals — is something I genuinely love. My open schedule allows me to dedicate quality time, attention, walks, play, and companionship to the pets I care for rather than trying to rush through visits. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty routines, walk schedules, medication instructions, and any household preferences closely because I know consistency is important for pets. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and supervision while their owners are away. I’m very communicative and understand how nerve-wracking it can be leaving your pet with someone else, so I like to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾
“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”

About: First and foremost, I’m a huge animal lover and advocate!Animals have always been a big part of my life, both personally and professionally. I have over 10 years of experience as a Veterinary Technician, where I cared for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I also spent 5 years working as an Animal Control Officer, giving me extensive experience with animal behavior, handling, safety, and helping animals in a variety of situations. I’m experienced with administering medications, caring for senior and special-needs pets, recognizing changes in behavior or health, and providing safe and compassionate care. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their individual routines, personalities, and needs. When your pets are in my care, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced hands. ❤️🐶🐱 I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members! I’m currently attending school with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide pet care around your routine. I’m available on the days and at the times you need, making it easy to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care. I provide attentive, personalized care in your home, following your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll keep them comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, medication support when needed, and regular updates with photos.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every age and need since I was 10 — from rowdy puppies and playful kittens to senior pets with special requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, tracking dosage schedules, and watching for changes in appetite, mobility, or behavior. With senior pets, I focus on gentle routines, extra rest, and close attention to comfort. With younger pets, I prioritize safe socialization, play, and structure so they get the interaction and exercise they need. I offer boarding and house sitting, so pets stay in a comfortable, familiar routine whether they’re in my care or their own home. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to feed, medicate, and care for their pets like my own. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets real attention, not just a quick check-in. Here’s what a typical visit or stay looks like: • Available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm • Flexible daytime drop-ins for medication schedules and older pets who need consistency • Extra playtime and outdoor walks built into every visit, not rushed • Happy to adjust timing around your pet’s normal routine so nothing feels disrupted I treat every pet like my own, with a strong focus on both physical safety and mental enrichment. Here’s what you can expect: • Fenced yard and two friendly, dog-savvy dogs to keep your pet company • Daily outdoor time for fresh air, sniffing, and exercise — not just a backyard bathroom break • Enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, treat-scattering, and interactive play to keep their mind engaged • Comfortable crating available if that’s part of your pet’s routine • Careful medication administration and monitoring for any dogs or cats with health needs • A calm, decorated, pet-friendly space that feels like home, not a kennel

“Fabtastic choice! Sophia was very communicative, timely, and attentive to our pup + cats needs! She went above and beyond to make sure our senior boy was well taken care of while we were away. Would recommend big time!”

About: 🎄 Now accepting new clients for the upcoming holiday season! Need someone reliable while you’re traveling, working, or spending time with family? I’m currently accepting new drop-in, house sitting, and walking clients for the holidays. I’m especially happy to help with last-minute care when my calendar allows — send me a request and let’s see if I’m a good fit for your pets! 🐾 I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like part of the family. I know how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and focused on making sure each pet feels happy and secure in their routine. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be home most of the day and have a flexible schedule. This means I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime rather than leaving them alone for long periods. House sitting & drop-in care are my specialties! 🐾 I love giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, cuddles, and routine while their people are away. I'm home full-time, have 6 years of pet-care experience, and can give your pets consistent care and plenty of photo updates throughout their stay. I also offer boarding in my home for families who prefer that option.

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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
