About: I have taken care of dogs since I have been 8 years old. I have had dogs all of my life and am experienced with puppies and elderly dogs as well. I would love to play, walk, or even just provide companionship for your dog. I work full time but I am currently available part time Tuesday through Thursday to care for your pet. PMs are better for me but I can be flexible as well. My dogs are crate trained but only while I am away from home. They walk well on leashesand also have a nice fenced in area to play in my yard. I am comfortable caring for your pet to your preference and your pet's preference.
“Emily was very conscientious and reliable in the twice daily visits to my dog, Watson, during my absence. My mind was at ease knowing that she would follow through on her commitment and care for him. Would give her a high rating and recommend her to others looking for care for their pet(s).”
About: Bilingual and able to communicate with families in Spanish, as well. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to care for their pets/homes for almost 7 years. They often say we're (my fiance and I) the only ones they trust to care for their pets. I have experience with senior pets and worked at a rescue previously. Excited to be going full time pet sitting/walking in 2026! I'm very reliable, flexible and am available last minute, 7 days a week and on holidays. I take extra care to keep pets happy, safe and comfortable. I follow instructions given and use caution when necessary to prevent any escapes. I do not do boarding in my home.
About: Choosing who to leave your dog with is an important decision. We will treat your dog like part of our family so they feel relaxed, safe and comfortable. We live on 37 acres in the country, so there’s plenty of room for your dog to explore. We have trails where we can walk your dog on a leash and a fully fenced 1-acre yard for safe, supervised play or a snooze in the yard. Whether your dog is active or more laid back, they’ll have what they need in our home. Your dog will be included in whatever we’re doing inside, outside or around the property. Throughout the day and evening they get a mix of supervised indoor and outdoor time, leashed walks on our wooded trails and play sessions with toys, balls and frisbees. We also make sure they have plenty of quiet time to rest and relax. Each dog's activity is adjusted based on their energy level and needs - whether they’re active and playful or prefer a more laid back routine. We are both retired so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods of time. We follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible including feeding schedules, rest time and any specific care instructions. We want them to feel comfortable, secure and settled while they’re here.
“Ashley is amazing, kind, understanding and patient. I would 100% hire her again in the future. Knowing she was there caring for my pet put my mind at ease while I was away.”
“Rebecca was a treasure! Both for me and my kitters. Pics, and even a video, from each visit, showed how much Zuko warmed up to her right away. Communication before and after was so helpful, since I'd never used a service such as this before. Rebecca's service is definitely a 5-star rating. I'll be calling on her again and again, as needed. Thank you so very much!! NS”
“Marissa was a fantastic sitter for Isla. She can be a shy kitty for strangers, but Marissa sent great photos her everyday, which means Isla warmed up to her quickly. It was a relief for us to know that our kitty was well looked after while we were gone. We will definitely try to book Marissa again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a good cat sitter. Thanks Marissa!”
“Kelly is awesome! She has a way with animals that puts them at ease. We feel super comfortable with her and will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you very much Kelly!!”
“Kimberly did an awesome job with my two senior cats. Zeke didn’t lose any weight while I was gone and Willie was spoiled with frequent walks on his leash to the point that I probably can’t live up to his new expectations 🙄. Will definitely use Kimberly again.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have been dog sitting for at least 16 years. I am experienced with training younger dogs and handling senior care. Looking to supplement my income with pet sitting in my free time. I have a flexible schedule but only willing to be available at 6:00 PM the latest. I have two loving dogs at home that love to go on walks/hikes, retrieve, deer tracking and swimming. During drop in visits I can feed, play or walk your pets.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was little, and I also have 6 years of experience working in doggy daycare and boarding services. To go with that I am a dog groomer and have managed the buisness I work for! I’m currently in a part time job at a doggy daycare, boarding and grooming center! I am available most days after school, and most weekends! I am very flexible to work with! I have a big yard that is great for dogs to have room to run around in! I have a very dog friendly home and I love all dogs and taking care of them!

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 Oxford 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.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
