“Stephanie should be a professional pet photographer. The pics she sent us were great! Our older guy also needs meds now and she did great making sure he took them since he sometimes resists. She was very sweet to our cats and took great care of them. Will be working with Stephanie again in the future!”
“Ollie loves Maria and she's very good with him, and very attentive to his needs as an older dog with a few joint and medical needs. Excellent walk and service.”
“I’ve now used Jennifer multiple times and she is always willing to accept my request on short notice and does a great job stopping in and checking on Jax. She even left holiday treats, which is much appreciated. I definitely recommend Jennifer and will certainly use her again.”
“Kathleen did a great job taking care of our old beagle. It really gave us peace of mind to have her checking in with us to let us know how our old guy was managing.”
“Crissy was wonderful with our two dogs. She was prompt every day and she gave so much attention to both dogs, including our dog that takes time to warm up to strangers.”
“Laura was great! She sent the cutest photos during every visit and actually spent time with our cats. She was attentive, punctual, and followed the plans. Great care- thank you Laura!”
“Catherine made my first experience with this service a great one! I was so nervous and she made me feel at ease. My dog can be highly anxious but did well with Catherine. Also, this booking was last minute so Catherine was truly a life saver. I would definitely recommend and use her services again!”
“Lisa was great! She made sure our cats were perfectly happy while we were out of the country for a week and was very caring towards them. She always made sure to send us lots of pictures of them while we were away too. She's very professional and holds herself to high standards, would definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!”
“Elizabeth was amazing to work with. Incredibly professional, friendly and responsive. I felt so safe leaving her with my cat Shredder, especially given her background in pet care and veterinary medicine. Thank you so much for your grace and understanding during the past 2 weeks, it truly meant a lot to me. 100% would recommend to anyone in the area seeking pet care.”
About: A friendly, responsible couple who treats every pet like family. We have 6 years of experience with puppies and small dogs. Our family has three dogs and two cats, and we took care of all of them since they were born. We make sure our furry friends have all the care and affection they need. My husband and I have flexible jobs. We can accommodate our time with yours with no issues. We just need a few days in advance for the bookings. We take care of them, and we protect them as if they were our pets. We have a lot of patience and affection for those furry family members of yours.
“Jennifer was wonderful and we would definitely use her again in the future. I had to cancel the original booking and she was helpful and understanding. We re-booked it a few weeks later and she did a great job with our cat, Curry, while we were away. Jennifer was flexible in scheduling, as we had to delete one day and add another, and she handled it for us on the site. Each time I had a question or a change, she responded within minutes. And luckily she lives right up the street so made it easier for her. Highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter!!! Mike and Linda”
About: I have experience taking care of a border collie, Australian Shepard, and a German Shepard. I enjoy walking around the city and always open to a companion or two joining me. I am able to host dogs at my place, with my German Shepard. I have a fully fenced in yard that all dogs can play in, and I can walk them around my neighborhood. I am also able to do drop in visits for dogs or cats and stop by to walk any dogs. I normally travel for work 3 days a week. When not traveling I am either working from home or have local visits. I plan out my visits so that any pets staying with me will not go longer than 4 hours alone. I will allow all dogs to roam freely while I’m at home and take a break to play with them, and my dog, for about 10 minutes every hour. It gets boring sitting in front of a computer. For any walks or drop ins the time is spent making sure they get plenty of stimulation. Whether it’s walking a new route or playing in the yard I have a fenced in back yard. No other dogs or animals get in the yard, except a squirrel or two. When walking in my neighborhood there is minimal traffic since it has no way for cars to go through it( a lot of dead end streets). I’m close to 695 so if an emergency happens I can get to many vets in the area fast.
About: I've taken care of lots of types of dogs for friends and family over the years. Experience with administering medication and open to all suggestions/requests for specialized care. As a stay-at-home parent, I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to meet your pets' needs. Late nights or early mornings are no problem. I have a fenced yard with lots of room and 2 friendly dogs to play with. Also plenty of space to keep them separated as well.
About: I have worked with all sizes of dogs and have worked with multiple pets at a time for the past 14 years. I am available to stay overnight and am available for walks and drop in visits on my work from home days. I absolutely adore senior dogs and rescues as those have been the dogs that have personally come into my life but I love them all :) I absolutely love every aspect of working with animals and work very hard to communicate with you about your expectations of care for your dog. I also always make sure to send photos and texts giving you updates about how your dog is doing while you're away! I really just enjoy spending time with your pets and if you have a dog that loves going places I always love to take them out and about. If needed, I am also comfortable with administering medications for your pets. In my client's home I respect the rules of their home. It's my place to make sure your pets are taken care of the way that you want! So whatever are their normal routines and rules is what I strive to follow. I especially love if part of their normal routine is treat giving! I work from home on Mondays and Thursdays making me available for walks and drop in, I am also off work every other Friday and my schedule is fairly flexible! I find it really important to follow the rules and manners set by the pet parents. I have personally raised rescues with unclear pasts so am also very aware of how to socialize dogs appropriately and respect their boundaries so they feel safe and I can earn their trust.
About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds since I was 14. In the pass 8 years I have acquired paid experience. I have and still volunteer at local animal shelters when time permits. Most of my experience has been with fish, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, cats and dogs. I also have experience in medication administration. I currently work part-time so my schedule is flexible especially for drop in visits. My weekends are limited but weekdays are open with more flexibility. I like to follow owners instructions on caring for their pet in their environment. I will never place your pet in a dangerous situation. I will make sure all safety gates are in place and keep harmful materials away from your pet.
About: I have a lifetime of experience with animals, having raised four dogs and three cats. I know how to keep pets safe, active, and happy. Whether walking your dog or visiting your cat, I will strictly follow your schedule and give them plenty of love! During the summer, my schedule is highly flexible. I am completely available for morning and evening walks or visits on weekdays, as well as anytime on weekends. I have plenty of free time to focus entirely on your pets and keep them happy! When visiting your home, safety is my top priority. I can carefully feed your pets, clean litter boxes, and provide safe walks. I am also comfortable administering medications if needed. I always strictly follow your instructions to keep your pets healthy and happy
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Overlea
Maria dropped in daily to look after our two cats while we were away for a week. She was great about providing detailed updates to let us know if hey were behaving (or not!) and spent time with them playing and giving scritches. Even our extremely shy boy seemed to warm up by the end. She also shared multiple daily photos, which we very much appreciated. Will definitely rebook in future.
Stephanie is amazing. I left for a 2 week trip and knee my girls were in good hands--the daily photos proved it. Stephanie discovered my cats like staring out the front door, so now I can leave the door open foe their entertainment. Will definitely use her again.
Meghan was very kind, attentive, and communicative with the first drop in visit with Junie. Junie took a little bit to warm up, but Meghan was patient and used her knowledge to help ease the situation. Junie got comfortable with Meghan and overall, I was very pleased.
This is the second time that Kelly has taken care of my cats. She is very professional, kind, and compassionate with my little trouble makers! The cats remembered her from the first visit and they enjoyed her company. While I think Kelly is great, what really matters is what our furry four legged kids think.
Laura is our go-to cat sitter whenever we travel, and we trust her completely. During our longest trip yet, she saved the day when the upstairs AC broke by quickly moving his food, water, and litter to a cooler floor. She showered our cat with love and attention, and we couldn't recommend her more!
Michelle was absolutely amazing for my cat while we were out of town on vacation! She is attentive, kind, and clearly cares a lot about animals. The peace of mind I get just from knowing my boy was well taken care of while I can’t be with him is priceless to me. 10/10 would recommend!
Crissy took great care of Vinny during her drop-in visit. We did a meet and greet first and she was super patient with him since he is slow to get to know new people. She asked great questions at the meet and greet, then gave thorough (and cute!) updates after the visit. He was comfortable with her and she kept his occupied and happy.

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.
