About: As a dedicated dog sitter with over 6 years of experience, I pride myself on offering personalized and attentive care that goes above and beyond the standard. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being is evident in every aspect of my service. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s an integral part of my daily routine and a true passion. Despite working from 6 AM to 3 PM, I have seamlessly integrated pet care into my schedule, ensuring each furry client receives the attention and love they deserve. My day starts early, and before I begin my workday, I make time for morning walks, ensuring each dog gets the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day off right. During my work hours, I ensure that any pet in my care is comfortable and attended to, with regular breaks to provide quick check-ins, snacks, and affection. Once my workday ends at 3 PM, I dedicate the rest of my afternoon and evening to pet care. This includes longer walks, play sessions, and any specialized attention a pet might need. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a grooming session, or some cuddle time, I ensure each pet feels happy and engaged. Balancing pet care with my work schedule has taught me the importance of organization, reliability, and, most importantly, the joy that comes from spending time with animals. My dedication to this routine ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well-taken care of, no matter the time of day. Each walk is personalized, taking into account the dog’s temperament, energy level, and specific requirements. I prioritize safety and enjoyment, ensuring that each walk is a positive and enriching experience for your furry friend.
“Alison is legitimately the best pet care provider I have EVER had. My cat fell completely in love with her. Every picture, Frannie was interacting with Alison. Keep in mind that Alison and Frannie were strangers to each other. Frannie was sitting in Alison's lap making biscuits on day one. Alison sent so many great photos and responded so quickly to all of my messages. When I got home the litter box was clean and the floor was clean. She literally vacuumed up all of the tracked litter. She was at our house caring for Frannie exactly when she said she would be, and I know this because we have a ring doorbell. I have already rebooked for our next trip.”
About: I have worked in pet grooming salons as well as daycare and boarding! I have also owned my own pets from birds to dogs to snakes! I believe every pet deserves to be treated with love, respect, and kindness I currently work as a dog groomer at a doggie daycare/boarding facility! I work five days a week, primarily mothers hours. I am usually available after 3PM or before 7:30AM! In my home there is a spare air conditioned bedroom for pets that need their own separate space, otherwise any pets will be allowed to coexist in my home with my own two medium sized dogs. I love to hike, go on walks, play, and cuddle on the couch! I believe all animals deserve to be loved, and yours will be treated as my own when in my care - weather for a sleepover or just a walk!
“Jonathan was absolutely wonderful! He watched my two cats for me while I was away for about a week and treated them so well. They warmed up to him immediately which doesn’t usually happen and he made sure to spend good time with them each day for brushing, treats, and general company. I would definitely recommend him!”
“Kayla is a great communicator. She is very kind, and she is patient with our puppy. She clearly loves animals and is very reliable when it comes to providing care.”
“Breighanna is very thorough & keeps in good contact which we loved-it's great to get updates on your cats while you're away. Our cats required meds in the a.m. & p.m. and she handled it seamlessly! She really went above & beyond by taking time to play and making sure each cat was engaged! Would recommend her to anyone booking, this is someone with a true passion for detail and care with animals!”
About: I’ve helped many families with pee breaks, visits, walks and sleep overs. I currently have a 7 year old dog and have had several dog’s growing up as well as many relationships built with other dogs in my life. My schedule is fairly open. Aside for stand alone appointments or commitments. Many mornings, midday open. Weekends, and evening also possible. Many cases I am able to accommodate last minute and special visits. I am always asking questions to make sure I know how the dog is cared for; including products, toys, feeding, eliminating , sleeping etc. It’s important that a dogs day to day is maintained while the family is away. Even if this is just for a walk or a visit,
“I highly recommend Lila. She did an amazing job with my three cats. She is very diligent and honest. Gustav needs a pill and she was able to give him that. Betty is very timid but she went to Lila. Lila kept me updated with texts and photos everyday. She went above and beyond. I look forward to having Lila take care of my fur babies whenever I travel!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Palmer
Katherine is the best, I would trust her with my first born child- fur baby or real baby! She is the so nice, attentive and considerate. She is thorough and thoughtful. My animals have had their own special needs and she has catered to them and made me feel 100% confident and comfortable when we were away. She sends pictures through the trip and I can say they clearly love her as Aunty Katherine. I have never seen them so loving with anyone outside of our immediate family. She is a blessing. Thank you Katherine!!

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.

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 .
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.
