“I understand why Cheryl has so many 5-star reviews! She sents dozens of photos each day, brought her own toys to engage my cats, and I came home to an unexpectedly clean house. She went above and beyond for my family! You'll come home to zero surprises with Cheryl.”
About: I have always enjoyed being around pets and have been taking care of dogs and cats, on a regular basis, for the last 4 years. I currently work for a big box retailer that provides daycare and overnight stays. I currently work part-time, so I am available to spend quality time with your pet while you are away. I’m available for drop-in visits or to take your dog out for walks throughout the day. I have experience handling dogs and cats of various ages, personalities, and needs. I’d love the opportunity to build a trusting and lasting relationship with your pet.
“Sabrina was very responsive and we were comfortable knowing our cat was in good hands! Also - our cat seemed to like her quickly and happily take her meds/hang around for pets :)”
“Vicky did an amazing job with my cat Juno. She walked, fed, and played with her. I was impressed with how quickly she responded to messages and how reliable she was. The daily pictures made me feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking Vicky in the future!”
“Marisela has been great with our dog Mochi. We usually have her come by for 30 minute drop ins while we are in office or out for extended periods in the day. Communication is great and she always comes as scheduled and provides several photos. Would highly recommend her!”
“My cat usually hates everyone except me and my husband but she appeared for Stephanie! Stephanie did a great job following the instructions we left and was able to take us on at the last minute when our usual sitter fell through. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve owned dogs ever since I was a child and have cared for dogs outside of my family for a little over 5 years. I love being able to learn the different personalities of each dog I come across. I also have professional work experience at a dog boarding company for a little over a year. I know how to handle dogs of all shapes and sizes and temperament ranges. I own my own dog, Obie, so I am always caring. I am open most days of the week excluding Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have class. I am available mornings though on those days. I am well versed in adapting to the dogs specific environments it’s comfortable in, matching its energy level and always being comforting and loving no matter what.

Thank you Victor for taking such great care of the house and the fur babies :) we absolutely appreciate your attention to detail and care for animals!”
“So happy we found a cat person on Rover! She was extremely reliable and great with my cat Juno. We had her come twice a day to give my cat medication and love. We will for sure book again.”
About: SUMMARY: Both my wife and I have over 14 years of experience with dogs. Not only are we raising a dog of our own, most of our family members and friends have dogs that we have watched and cared for over the last decade! We have even experienced caring for a dog that had cancer and gave her the best care and comfort that we could in her last days ❤️ OUR CORGI: Our female Welsh Corgi is 14 years old, giving us much experience taking care of senior dogs. We can apply ointments and keep a strict medication schedule. Our dog requires medication everyday so we are very experienced with high-maintenance dogs. Overall, she’s low energy, keeps to herself, and won’t interact much with other pets. OUR SPACE: We live in a 2 bed/2 bathroom apartment. Dogs are allowed on our beds and sofas as long as they are clean- we love to cuddle with them. We have a gorgeous dog park right in front of us. AMENITIES: Although we live in an apartment, we have amazing amenities here- such as a huge dog park right in front of our unit. They’ll have the chance to run around, get some sun, and play with friends at the dog park if they like to be social. SCHEDULE: We both work from home full-time and are usually always at home! Your pet will always be under watchful eyes from either one of us, or both. SAFETY: We will make sure your pet is safe at all times. When we take dogs outside to relieve themselves, they will be on a leash at all times (unless inside the fully-fenced dog park). We live in a very safe, private complex that is very quiet and dog-friendly. Additionally, given our experience with our own elderly dog, we are extremely good at caring for high-maintenance dogs and are diligent and observant of behavior and health. We know the signs of stress, aggravation, anger, and agitation and will be able to act appropriately. You can rest assured your pet will be safe with us! Note: We expect our clients to bring all necessary food, snacks, medications, bedding, and toys for the duration of their pet’s stay with us. We charge $25 per round trip to the store for any missing items.
About: Hi! I’m Grace! I’m a dog lover with experience caring for my own dogs as well as family and friends’ pets. I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities and needs, and I love getting to know each pup and their routine.

I’m generally available Monday through Thursday and every other Friday, with flexibility throughout the day for walks and drop ins! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. For walks and drop-ins, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, potty breaks, medications if needed, and any specific safety requests.

Whatever helps you and your pup feel most comfortable.
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have always been comfortable caring for them. I grew up with cats and have experience feeding, playing with, and caring for them throughout my life.

I'm excited to provide loving care for both cats and dogs. I am currently a university student and have a very flexible schedule, especially during the summer months when I am not taking classes. This allows me plenty of availability throughout the week for pet care services. I can plan my day around visits, walks, check-ins, and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening care depending on the client's needs. Although I don't have formal professional experience in pet care, I've cared for cats my whole life and understand their behavior, needs, and comfort.

This is the 3rd time Nikka has taken care of my dog, and she is absolutely the best!! Nikka is utterly reliable, responsible, responsive, and smart, with a calm, loving demeanor with my animals. She was able to take my very unpredictable, reactive, 60 lb. senior dog on substantial walks, without incident with other dogs, on her daily drop-in visits. I'd trust Nikka in any emergency situation to make the right choice, and to always put my animals' best interests first.
Sean took exceptional care of our pup while we were away. He kept us updated with frequent photos and messages, made sure Chance got plenty of walks (including trips to the beach!), and even went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and offering to take our trash cans out on collection day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Chance was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Sean again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.
We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!
We have been booking Vicky for a couple months now to do boarding and weekly walks with our dog. She is responsive, kind, a genuine pet lover. Our dog looks forward to his walks with Vicky and we hope to continue to book Vicky for a while. Highly recommended!
Stephanie was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and she made me feel very at ease with everything. She came over for a meet and greet to see the cats and to see our place to show her where everything was and she made that very easy to schedule too. She left great notes and pictures! I highly recommend. I will be using her services again!
Stephen and Erica watched our cat during the Christmas holidays (and agreed to do so on relatively short notice!) and we came home to a happy cat who had received some new toys for Christmas. It was great getting to see pictures of her while we were away and know that there was someone around to make sure that she was eating and getting some attention. Would definitely boom with Stephen and Erica again!

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.

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 use the 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.
