“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs, including our senior dog who needs a gentler approach. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We’re extremely happy with her service and would absolutely trust her with our pups again! We highly recommend Lauren!”
“Kaylyn was excellent and communicated very well throughout her visits. She went above and beyond to make sure our animals were all taken care of. I highly recommend Kaylyn!”
“Crystal popped in for Bogart's mid-day walkabout and snack while we enjoyed a long day out. Nice to know Bogart's covered and we're pretty sure Bogart enjoys greeting his own "company" when we're not there. Thanks Crystal!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from small to big and unfriendly dogs. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility previously for about a year and I have been pet sitting for almost 3 years now. I currently have my own clients so I make my own schedule. I rearrange my schedule to fit all the animals in that I have for the day. This way I spend the most time with your pet. In a clients home, I always listen to what the client says. If the dog must be on a leash to go outside, then it will or if the dog must be caged at night. The owner knows their animal better.
“I’m highly impressed with Aaron. He takes dog walking to another level! Very professional and transparent. Not only does he take the dogs for a walk, but he clocks his departure and arrival and includes a map of where he went. He leaves a real nice summary that paints a picture of the dog’s outing. My 2 dogs are having a lot of fun with him. My German Shepherd dog took right to him, sensing that Aaron was a true dog lover, especially lover of German Shepherd dogs 😁. In addition to loving dogs and giving them a great time, he has that extra sense of knowing how to care for them. He let me know he wiped the salt from my dogs’’ paws upon his return from a walk in the snow. I’m feeling blessed to have found him.”
About: Hi everyone! I've had dogs since I was a baby. My first dog, Kayla actually taught me how to walk! I absolutely love pups & am hoping to open a sanctuary for senior & disabled dogs one day. For now, I'm hoping to be able to leave my corporate job & take care of your dogs. Absolute dream job💙 My goal is to make your dogs as happy & comfortable as possible. If they're happy, they won't be stressed and neither will you. My family and I keep them busy & entertained. Some of my clients even call my home Camp Anacelia 😂. The atmosphere in my house is very relaxed. Everyone is welcome on the furniture & most of our guest pups sleep on our beds or in one of several dog beds we have throughout the house. Their choice! Have a pup with special needs or need medications administered? No problem! From allergy meds to insulin to diapers, I have years of experience. I also keep puppy pads readily available for our untrained guests. When the weather is good, I like to take the dogs on day trips to parks, events, markets, etc. Let me know if your dog is not a fan of car rides. Communication is key! Tell me what your needs are and we can decide together, if I'm the right sitter for your family. Thank you & I look forward to meeting you & your pup! I work outside of the home during the weekday, but your pups will never be alone as my husband is self employed and loves spending time with them. I like to spend 1 on 1 time with the pups and let them decide if they want to play together or just want to nap on my lap. Meal times are also done on a solo basis to eliminate any chance of mishaps and to decrease stress.
“Lindsay is a dependable caregiver. She took care of my dog at the last minute. I loved the pictures she sent too. I will use her again when I need someone responsible to care for my Boba. 🐕”
About: I worked at a veterinary clinic for a year, before my position was dissolved. But I have been taking care of my family and friend's pets for years. I am easy to communicate with and reliable to be around. I do not currently work aside from pet sitting so my availability is more open than most. I can essentially be around for your pet anytime I am needed. I am consistent in my availability. I can adapt my schedule based on what an individual pet requires, should they need someone present more or less. I take time to make sure a pet is comfortable with me before anything.
“We are so grateful to Cristine for taking such wonderful care of our dog and cat for 2 weeks. Our dog is very anxious and she warmed up to Cristine so quickly. She took extra time with her to help her feel secure while we were away and sent us tons of photos of them enjoying treats and snuggles. Our pets just loved her!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. I currently have an 18-month-old Standard Goldendoodle who keeps me active, smiling, and well-versed in all things doodle energy and affection. Because I’m home most of the time, your pup will receive consistent attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing in a calm environment, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I work from home majority of the time, but go into the office 3 days a week for a couple hours each of those days. I have a fully fenced in yard and a very friendly 18 month standard golden doodle. I am home majority and f the time for walks an potty breaks
“Chelsea has been such a wonderful addition to our regular schedule ! She is friendly, reliable, timely, and detail oriented. She promptly fills us in on any important happenings throughout her visits. Most importantly she takes such good care of our Sadie girl, and we are so thankful 🙂”
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and understand that every pet has its own personality and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every dog, cat, or other pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications, or simply giving extra attention to senior pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also pay close attention to routines and instructions so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care that keeps pets happy and stress-free. Im currently working part time right now so I have a lot of extra free time on my hand & would love to take care of all animals during my free time Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel relaxed and secure. I’ll make sure they always have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise if needed, and a clean environment. I’ll also keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, pay close attention during walks and playtime, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and respect that I would give my own.
“Meghan was amazing! Reliable, caring, and very attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of and gave our cats great company while we were away. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. Highly recommend her!”
“Jackie was absolutely amazing! Sent us so many pictures and videos, and took such great care of our babies. Would 1000% book her again. Thank you Jackie! Our babies loved you.”
About: I grew up with dogs all my life and nothing excites me more than looking over your fur babies. I'm very responsible in assuring that your pets are well taken care of and their necessities are being met. I am employed Full-time but as most people, I do have the weekends off. My fiancé and I have opposite schedules so someone is always home! My schedule coordinates just well with our fur babies because if I'm not home, my significant other is. We have a fenced yard where your fur babies can enjoy the outdoors or run around. We have two Australian shepherds that are very energetic and love to play! Per request, your pet could be crated if asked.
About: Let’s be real: your dog deserves a break that’s actually fun! I’m here to make sure they get exactly that. I work at a veterinary hospital so I’m the person who naturally notices the "little things," but when I’m walking your pup, it’s all about the good stuff—fresh air, tail wags, and a serious amount of attention!!! I’ll keep you in the loop with plenty of cute photo updates so you don’t feel like you’re missing out. This isn't just a job for me; I converse, love and care for each dog or cat as my own. I work night shift at a veterinary hospital which gives me a flexible schedule for morning, afternoon and evening feeds, walks and weekend adventures! Whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a stroll to burn off energy, I’m here to make sure they get exactly what they need while you’re busy. Getting out with your dog is the best part of my day! Since I work in a veterinary environment, safety is second nature to me. I’m the person who double-checks the leash, keeps a sharp eye on surroundings, and makes sure the water bowl is always fresh. I treat your home with respect and your pet like they’re my own. Expect plenty of cute photo updates so you can see exactly how much fun we're having!
“Roxxie was great with my pups, she was very prompt and sent lots of pictures on their walks and playtime. My oldest and hardest dog was great and was excited to see her every visit. Last minute we had to add some drop in visits and Roxxie was willing and able to work this out for us. We will be using Roxxie for all our other trips.”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Paletown
Lauren did an exceptional job walking my dog Ollie while I was traveling. It was his first time with Lauren and immediately decided she was his bestie for the week. Her reports were thoroughly positive and detailed. Lauren will definitely be our first choice for future Josh sits!
Suzanne was 100%+++ AWESOME!!! Our Rosie had just been diagnosed with an Insulinoma (Cancer) and had become much more needy and required morning medications. We have a strong family & Friends group, but with the extra amount of times and extra care needed we needed someone who could come each day early. Suzanne came every morning between 0630-0700 and took care of Rosie and spent time with her to help her through her morning craziness. She gave us fantastic photos and updates that really help calm us when we went away. I 100% recommend using Suzanne for your pet care needs. We will use her again in the future without a doubt.

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 .
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 , 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
