“Isa took great care of shredder. He loves to see her so much! She is great with dogs and has a real passion for animals. I always feel good about Isa taking care of shredder”
“Brooke was really great with our standard labradoodle. He is a fairly large dog and handled him very well. She always gave us updates, photos, and even dropped a few videos of him. I will definitely book her again.”
“Kimes is always so wonderful when it comes to cat sitting for us. She is responsive to messages, sends pictures, and lets us know if she notices anything or if the ordinary. We appreciate her time and care for our baby girl.”
“John was fantastic with our Husky Bo. He kept me informed about everything that Bo was doing, and sent pictures and video. Bo was always happy to see John, and appeared to be having a great time on his walks. I would definitely recommend John, and I plan on requesting him to watch Bo again.”
About: I have two big dogs of my own so I have plenty of experience with larger breeds. I’ve had puppies and kittens and grew up with lots of pets! I also cat sit and dog sit on occasion for my family! I work Part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your animals. I walk my own animals daily in addition to go to the gym. Stamina won’t be a problem no matter the energy level of your pet. I have two large dogs who run around constantly, I’m very good with clear commands and communication with them. I also take care of my families cats who can be temperamental which taught me a lot of patience when caring for animals as well.
“Kristen was great! She followed my instructions and was very good at communicating with me. She consistently updated me on how my pup was doing so I felt at ease and sent plenty of pictures. She’s very kind and I felt confident my pup was in good hands! Will definitely book her again the next time we need someone to watch our dog 😊”
“We had such piece of mind having Shelli care for our Maisie girl. From the initial meet and greet, to the follow up communications, and then our first drop in last Sunday, we felt like we could take a deep breath and trust in Shelli. Our Maisie girl now requires heart meds 3x a day and they have to be timely, which typically leaves the mid day pill challenging, if you want a social life or have a work schedule that goes hay wire. She's professional, showed up on time, and I could tell from the meet and greet that she and our girl would be fast friends. Highly recommend!”

“April did an amazing job with our boy Jag the tripawd cat. He is leash trained and he showed her around the yard. She carefully took care of his litter box. No weird smells when we arrived home. Thank you April! We will book again.”
“She was very helpful and convenient with immediate response for a last minute request. Communicated greatly and I'm sure our puppy loved her, all the pictures sent my dog looked happy and well taken care of.”
About: Hi everyone! I grew up with cats and dogs and am no stranger to all there needs, I regularly sit for my friends and family and can handle all of your pet sitting needs. My job is Monday thru Friday 7-3 so I'm available between 6-7 am and after 3 during the week and any time on the weekends My dog goes to the dog park almost daily during the week and is no stranger to going on hikes on weekends, she is very good with other dogs and would never turn down a play mate.
“Courtney was great. She dropped in and hung out with my cat Guidu while I was gone for the weekend. I got check-ins, photos, and summaries for each visit and he was well cared for. Courtney was super easy to coordinate with, was very friendly, and was great at communicating. I will definitely ask Courtney to drop in on Guidu again in the future. ??”
“So excited we are all set up for the future!!! I hope our pets get a visit from their new BFF often in our future!!! Mary thank you so much for the time and effort learning more and more about our family.”
“Gino was very nice and professional. Offered to do a quick meet and greet before the first visit in order to meet the dog and learn how to get in the house and everything. Took photos and kept us updated through the visit. Would recommend.”
“Bella and Marcus went above and beyond watching our cat Gatsby. They made sure to not only do all of the daily tasks, but to also spend quality time with Gatsby and make sure he was entertained while we were away. They even showed genuine concern with the WA air quality and how it was going to affect Gatsby. I will definitely be sticking with them from now on when it comes to drop in visits for Gatsby.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs all my life, and been a trusted dog sitter and walker for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs with extreme anxiety or reactivity. Since moving to Kent, I don't have a dog of my own and would love to spend some quality time with your pup! I am available all week (and holidays) to help however you and your furry family need me. I currently work fully remote with a flexible schedule, so I can be available virtually all week, day and night. If dog sitting at your house, I only request wifi access so I can get work done between dog walks, playtime and cuddles. I have a small fenced patio if your dog needs significant outside time, otherwise they are welcome to my entire townhome. I have a cat who is quiet and keeps to herself, and who can also be kept in her own separate room if needed. My neighborhood is great for walks with access to my gated community and nearby a long river trail. I have had dogs that are crate trained and those that roamed free at night, and can accommodate whichever your pup needs.
“Liseth was amazing with Tinto, she kept communicating with us all the time and we got back home to a very well fed, happy and cared for dog. Definitely recommending her and will call her again when needed. Thank you, Liseth!”
“Morgan did a great job filling in last minute for us! We will definitely consider her again for future dates. She was communicative and thorough throughout her time here. Kaya definitely appreciated the company.”
“This was my first time using Rover and having Ali take care of my cat while I was out of state was great! Ali was communicative and great with my cat! I would highly recommend hiring Ali 💯😊”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - O'Brien
Brooke is wonderful with our cat and always takes such great care of him. He is very shy and takes some time to warm up, but Brooke is incredibly patient and understanding with him. She never rushes him and always makes sure he feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. She is dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, and she always goes the extra mile to make sure he is happy and well looked after. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. We’re incredibly grateful for the love, patience, and attention she gives him and would wholeheartedly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional pet sitter!
We’ve used Kaelyn multiple times for drop-ins with our two cats. We’ll continue to book her every time we can! Kaelyn excels at photos and updates to let you know your fur family is doing fine, which takes so much stress off of being away from home. She’s the best.
Marcola was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond by offering multiple times to meet in person beforehand, which really showed her thoughtfulness and professionalism—even though my schedule didn’t allow it. It was clear from the start how much she genuinely loves and enjoys caring for animals. I felt completely comfortable trusting her with my three cats, even without meeting beforehand. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

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.
