“Zack was amazing with my cat! This was my first time using Rover, and he went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable with the process. He was extremely communicative while I was away and kept me informed about everything going on with Phileas. The daily photos were such a bonus and really put my mind at ease.”
“Sydney took the best care of my cat while I was away! She sent me lots of pictures of my cat and played with him plenty. He can be apprehensive to new people, but he warmed up to her right away because she was so good with him.”
“Jenessa was a great sitter for Estie! She was always quick to respond, and was very flexible and helpful during my trip. I came home to a happy cat, which is all I can ask for! Thanks again:)”
About: I have been a vet assistant, I’ve worked with horses, cats, dogs, birds, lizards, and snakes. I always go the extra mile and believe that pets deserve the very best. I was a vet assistant and specialized in “difficult “ pets. I will go at your pets speed, whatever helps them be more comfortable. If your pet needs more time to adjust, I will give them that. I take care of your babies as if they were mine, I will give them love and attention with boundaries. I specialize in difficult cases. If your pet needs a little extra time and attention that’s no problem.
“Emma was amazing with my cat, Toast! She was communicative, reliable, and even stayed extra some nights to give him more cuddles and attention. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my home and pet, and I'd definitely recommend her to others.”
“We met Melanie during the pandemic, and she has watched our kitty Boots for us a couple times so far. She is/was very respectful of covid precautions and made us feel very comfortable during our meet and greet. She clearly has a love for animals and will give your pet TLC while you are away. She took the time to listen to our requests and answered any questions we had. She shows up on time and pays attention to the detailed notes/tasks we leave. We recommend Melanie!”
About: I have had 6 dogs throughout my lifetime. I have experience with small and big dogs. I have the most experience with poodle breeds. I have experience in puppy training/adult dog training and senior dog care. I have 24/7 availability. I currently have a beagle mix named Reggie! I work hard to make sure he’s taken care of through play, feeding, and (most importantly) loved on. When I take care of dogs, I make sure they are adequately exercised outside, I make sure they are fed and have water, and I make sure they have enough mental stimulation to make them happy and healthy!
“Lexi is a five star sitter. My two scaredy cats— typically who like to hide from strangers— warmed up fairly quick. Lexi is extremely communicative, friendly, and thoughtful. Left my home better than I left it when I went on my trip (cleaned the area around food and water as well as the litter box). An absolute recommend from me!”

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Obetz stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Obetz choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
