“Chrissy was very kind and understanding of our 15 year old dog Bailey . Bailey has never spent time with a babysitter. Chrissy was very reassuring and understanding of Baileys need for love and attention. Chrissy took the time to message and send pictures and video updates . We felt comfortable leaving Bailey with Chrissy. Chrissy sent Bailey home with a treat . We are thankful for her kindness and care, highly recommend her.”
“Peggy has been a wonderful petsitter for Fenek (our 14-week old puppy) two-times now. The first time was for one day. This most recent time, he stayed overnight. Peggy is so wonderful and Fenek seems to have so much fun while there, we're worried he's not going to want to come back home with us, lol. Peggy is attentive and communicative -- and we highly recommend her services.”
“Isabella was amazing. She took care of my two small dogs for six days. I got daily pictures, sometimes more. and they were so happy. She was quick to respond to messages. If I lived in the area I would be hiring her on the regular. Best dog sitter we have had.”
About: I've grown up with pets around me my entire life. My first pets included a rainforest macaw named Peter, and a Shih Tzu named Bala. Since then we've owed many pets and they all have a special place in our hearts. There is always someone at home, so the dogs are never home alone. They are part of the family when they are in our care. The kids love the company too! I have a fenced in yard and we currently do not have pets as our 15 year old Chihuahua recently passed. Now we get to share memories with all the ones that come stay with us at our home.
“Melissa and her husband were amazing! They loved our little Hazel as much as we do. She asked about Hazel’s loves and routines and made sure Hazel was comfortable. We received occasional photos of the little girl enjoying her time there. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren welcomed Cooper into her home as though he was her own. He stayed two full weeks with Lauren and her family and she updated us daily with photos and an activity list. Cooper was thrilled to be cared for so lovingly as illustrated by the fact that he wasn’t diving into our vehicle when we arrived. Also, he’s crashing this minute, so we know he was busy having fun. Anyone would be fortunate to have Lauren care for their pet.”
“Amazing sitters. I’ve been in a bind the past month and they took my Charlie Bear in last minute with no issues. I receive daily video/photo updates about him and he looks so happy and healthy. Highly recommended!!!”
“Saira was absolutely wonderful! I didn't have to ask for updates or pictures as she made sure to send them throughout the day. She definitely made me feel at ease knowing my 2 dogs were being taken care of. Thank you so much!!!”

I'm so happy to have Sandra close to home, for day trips or to cover my absence for a longer trip. She tries hard to get Alexa to play with her other dogs, and this time succeeded and sent me a video of their outdoor playtime. Always great communication and care for my dog.

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
