“Victoria was absolutely amazing with my cats, Ash and Arsha. She was on time every single day, extremely responsible, and very attentive throughout the whole time. She always double-checked details with me and repeatedly confirmed how my cats were doing, which made me feel completely at ease. She also kept me updated on everything — for example, if there was any food left, she would let me know right away so I could plan accordingly. My cats are normally very shy and nervous around strangers, but Victoria was so patient and gentle that they gradually warmed up to her. By the end, they actually became friends with her, and she was even able to pet them — which is rare for my cats! I truly appreciate how caring and trustworthy she is, and I would highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet sitter.”
“We are incredibly grateful to Karen for taking such wonderful care of our two dogs during our vacation through drop-in visits at the house. This enabled them to stay where they were comfortable and not be boarded. Karen was both professional and friendly, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was in contact with photos and summaries of visits which gave us peace of mind. She fed them, let them out, and engaged them in play. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs, and they loved her. We will certainly be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Karen, for your outstanding care!”

About: I have experience caring for pets through both professional work and personal ownership. I currently provide dog walking and pet care through Wag!, where I’ve worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including senior dogs and more active breeds. I’ve also had the opportunity to build trust with repeat clients by providing dependable, compassionate care. As a proud cat mom to two cats, I understand the importance of patience, routine, and recognizing each pet’s unique personality. In addition, I’ve volunteered with a cat rescue, where I cared for cats with a wide range of temperaments, cleaned enclosures, socialized cats, and administered oral and topical medications when needed. I also spent a year working at a family-owned pet store that specialized in dogs, cats, and exotic animals, giving me hands-on experience with daily animal care and pet wellness. My goal is to provide every pet with a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while giving pet parents peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. Since I also drive, I’m able to reliably travel to visits, walks, and drop-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe pets feel happiest in their own home, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions before each visit. I always ensure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and playtime, and treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Ella was great! My dog is high maintenance needing medication that she doesn’t easily take and having accidents while she’s alone, Ella was able to give her meds and cleaned up after the accidents. She gave detailed updates of her time as well along with pictures.”
“This was our first time using rover. Jessica was amazing and so sweet as well as attentive. Amazing communication and our girls were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using her again on any future vacations.”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs/cats my whole life and currently have 2 dogs & 1 cat of my own. I volunteer for animal rescue groups and have always wanted to work in an animal related field. I am a certified dog trainer through Petco & Petsmart therefore, I am educated on the characteristics/behavioral tendencies of each breed & familiar as to what they require. I strive to make each four legged pal feel comfortable with me as well. Making each animal feel like they are my own is important to me so they receive the love, attention and care that they need. I've pet sat at my home as well as others homes. I've also had all types of experiences with dogs/cats so I know how to control a bad situation. I have open availability and am very flexible. I am mobile as well. I'm looking foward to meeting your furbaby & making more furry friends. I am currently not working, and I have open availability to take care of your furry friends no matter how long you need! Your pet will fit perfectly into my daily routine. Your pets safety and comfortably is my number 1 priority. If you have any special request or accommodations, that is no problem. Please don’t be shy!
About: Hiii animal lovers! I'm a former NYC rescue/shelter caregiver. I am GoodPup Certified(GCT) and Fear Free Shelters certified in positive reinforcement training practices. I spent the past 5 years working as a Senior Caregiver in a NYC rescue organization. Rescue/Shelter work gave me varied experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I am comfortable with both dogs and cats, small to large breeds, and from newborn to elderly. I have treated various kinds of medical conditions ranging from ear and eye infections, skin conditions, post op care, newborn care, and more. I’m also comfortable with deaf or visually impaired animals. My position taught me how to use my positive reinforcement training skills in my everyday interactions with our dogs and cats. This is the approach I take with all animals in my care because it works. Fear Free training is an approach that considers the emotional impact of our actions on the animals in our care. It teaches us how to use stress reduction techniques in all our interactions with them. A shelter is a very stressful place for any animal, so these techniques really help to reduce their anxiety. It is my job to make an animal more comfortable with me and the environment; and I absolutely love this work! Seeing an animal open up to me is the best feeling in the world, and one that I honor by treating them with respect. They are individuals and deserve to be treated as such. I read their body language and use that as a guide on how to approach or interact with them. I’d love to hear about your pets and look forward to meeting some new munchkins! I'm currently working part time. My schedule is fairly open but will change as I take on more walking and training work. I'd like to start with walking, drop ins, and boarding services. I will eventually add training services as well. Safety will always be my number one priority. We can’t walk, play or have any fun if we are not in a safe space first. I adore meeting people’s pets and hearing about the things that make them special and a member of the family. Let me know if your pet displays any reactivity. I can look out for these triggers on our walk.
“Samantha was amazing with my puppy Henry! She as patient and kind and kept in contact with me to update me on his status during her drop in visit! I know he’s in good hands with her during his weekly visits”
“Janhvi was excellent. The experience felt luxurious with the way she operated. Never missed a visit, pics, vids and full report every time. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Amy took great care of my dog and cat. I can’t explain what a relief it was to find her. My mini dachshund is 16 years old and I don’t like to bring him into new environments or away from his best friend pelé the cat, so it worked out perfectly. I would highly recommend Amy!”
“Nick has been a delight! Our Ginger absolutely adores him! He keeps us updated regarding his visit with our pup. Nick is easy to get in touch with and we trust him with our girl. Looking forward to more visits from Nick in the future!”
About: We are a family of dog lovers! My husband and I both grew up with dogs, and though we don’t have pets currently, our love of dogs keeps us pet sitting and dog walking around our neighborhood. We have 3 young children who absolutely adore dogs, and love taking responsibility in taking care of them when we are pet sitting. We have a lot of snuggles to give your pups, and lots of walks to take them on, too! I am a stay at home mom so our schedule is pretty flexible! We are up early, and outside often. Any timing should be fine for us to work around. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your fur baby. We can play fetch with your pup, give them lots of snuggles, and plenty of walks!
“Mary was wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect pet sitter. Upon meeting her, I knew immediately that my dogs would be well taken care of, and the pictures she sent me while I was away assured me that my dogs were very happy while in her care.”

Samantha is an excellent sitter. While we were away for more than a week, she sent photos and updates after each visit. Our dog is very comfortable in her care. Samantha is reliable, attentive and goes above & beyond. This was our second booking with her, and we will continue to book her as long as she is available.
Janhvi provided such great care to my dog, Gracie. She gave Gracie lots of attention and I had such peace of mind that my dog was in excellent hands. I was also grateful that at each visit she notified me and sent photos for me to see how happy Gracie was in her care.
Amanda is a total lifesaver! She met my puppy Daisy on a Sunday night to be sure Daisy felt safe with her coming by. This was my first time ever having anyone other than my family care for my puppy, and I had been worried about how to find the right person to help as I’m working full time at a summer camp. Amanda fits Daisy’s needs perfectly as she herself is a loving dog owner who understands exactly how to handle and treat our puppy. Amanda has quickly bonded with Daisy, giving her lots of attention and belly rubs in addition to her basic feeding routine. Anyone would be super lucky to have Amanda caring for their dog. Amanda also goes above and beyond by doing things like being very considerate in bringing our package deliveries in if she sees it’s a hot day out. That’s something we didn’t even request thought she’s so super thoughtful, it is much appreciated:)!
I am a senior living with my 5 senior cats. They are my family and their happiness is my happiness. Although I like to travel, I hesitate to ask my son and daughter-in-law to take care of them over and over again while I am out of town. I was planning to visit my other son and his family to see my grandkids in NC. I decided to give a try to drop-in care. After checking all the options, I decided on SARAH based on her background and reviews. What a choice I made; she was excellent, deserving more than 5 stars. First of all, she is an animal lover. My cats have a strong sense if a person likes them or not. They will either come to great that person or totally disappear. Looking at the pictures Sarah provided, they are all around her. Even on her shoulder, hugging. Yes, she sent me plenty of pictures every day, including before and after pictures of their plates, litter boxes, She let me know every detail about their wellbeing even sent me the pictures of throw ups, if she found one. When I was back, I found the house clean and in order. She even took all the garbage out with her. Well, I couldn’t ask anything more from her. I feel very comfortable leaving my cats with her again.
Stephanie once again cared for my four cats -- this time for 10 days. She is so great to work with. Responsive and responsible. She sent pictures daily, spent time giving my curmudgeonly kitties love and play time, and ultimately allowed me to enjoy my vacation without a single worry. She is just a wonderful.
Abigail was awesome with our two pups! She went above and beyond our expectations and would absolutely use her again when we need a dog sitter/walker. She was flexible and easy to communicate with and took such great care of our dogs. She updated us daily about them and sent us pictures. Thanks so much again! The pups already miss her!
Elaina has been taking care of Max and Coco 4 days a week for several months now and they both just adore her! I have found Elaina to be loving and attentive with both, even getting Max to take his medicine even though he is a pretty stubborn little man! Elaina has been great about communicating with me after each visit and has been super flexible in terms of our schedule. Simply put, you will not find a better friend and care giver for your pet! Thanks Elaina!!

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 .

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.
