“I’ll admit, I was initially hesitant about using Rover due to the mixed reviews I’d heard. But after thoroughly combing through bios and reviews, I scheduled meet-and-greets with a few sitters. Charlayne instantly stood out, and let me tell you—it was one of the best decisions I’ve made! Charlayne is an absolute gem! She was more than just a pet sitter; she became a beacon of support during a really challenging time. Not only did she care for my pets like they were her own, but she even kept an eye on my home and packages while I was away. Truly above and beyond! If you’re on the fence, trust me—go with Charlayne! She’s reliable, compassionate, and an absolute pro. 10/10 recommend, and I will undoubtedly book with her again in the future.”
“Alexia went above and beyond to not just make sure my two kitties were taken care of, but also managed to keep them comfortable and happy while we were out of town for a week! She cleaned the litter box out and even tidied up and vacuumed when needed. The cats love her and we will definitely have her back”
About: I love each animal as if they were my own. I have experience in taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I have patience, compassion and a lot of love to give to animals. I am flexible with anything. I have experience in dog walking, house sitting for families with fur babies and having dogs stay at my home when their owners are away. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who live at home currently with me, a 12 year old Cocker Spaniel and a 4 year old Catahoula Australian shepherd mix.
About: I grew up on 27 acres and we always had dogs. I have helped taken care of many breeds of dogs and I have a lot of experience potty training them. I will give them the love and care like they are my own. I work a PT job on Sunday and Monday, but I am available for the rest of the week for whatever needs that your fur baby requires. I have a fenced in yard in the back. I do have a crate available if needed. My dogs love other dogs and cats. I live on a dead end street and I walk my dogs down stacks road where there is not a lot of heavy traffic. Safety is of importance when it comes to all fur babies! 🐾🐾🐾
“Mikah was great! She took great care of our pups and sent us pictures over our weekend away! She even offered to check on them once more when our plans home were delayed having us get home later than we were hoping. Will absolutely use her again in the future!”
“Alyssa was fantastic. Very communicative with updates, on time and my dog loved her. She watched my dog for 7+ days and it gave me a peace of mind having her take care of my fur baby”
“This is the third time I placed my baby Zeus in Aniyah's care and she was wonderful! She's always punctual, sends numerous photos, and always goes above and beyond to put your mind at ease while you're away. I will definitely continue depending on her to care for Zeus.”
About: I was raised in a rural area with 10 acres of land, and we have always had pets. I've always had a furry child; there has never been a moment in my life without one. I've had the pleasure of raising a variety of dogs throughout the years, as well as two cats. I now have a well-behaved, two-year-old black Lab named Jake. When he was just a tiny puppy, I started training him. He continues to pick up new skills despite having many masteries. I have given Jake all of his training and skills, and even though I have some training expertise, I am not a certified trainer. Jake and I spend a lot of time exercising because we enjoy being outside. Some days, we take a quick lap or two around the block, and others we go for a lengthier walk on the trails! I am a rule-follower, and your pet's health, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities. I am available for drop-in visits (bathroom breaks and feedings), walks, and baths (no grooming). If there is any way I can assist you with your furbabies, kindly let me know! I work three days a week at my full-time job and go to college full-time. I spend a lot of time at home and have time for walks, exercise, baths, and drop-in visits for potty breaks, feedings or check in on your fur babies. I am currently unable to accept any pets for boarding or home-sitting for more than a few hours due to my work and academic commitments. Your pets will be treated the same way I treat mine: as members of the family. At times, my Jake virtually owns the home! While I do let my baby sit on my furniture, I will always abide by your house's pet-related rules. Just make sure to let me know what they are so I can make sure we're acting properly. Currently, I am not available at this time for pet boarding. I do charge for pet baths and it's arranged by weight. Rover only lets me set one price for all and I don't charge one price for all dogs. Please message me if you're interested in having your pet washed and ill tell you my price based on their size/weight.
“Communicated everything that needed communicated, was prompt and gave updates, kept my pup and house safe and secure, top notch care, would recommend to any pet ow era needing some help!”

About: I have owned pets my entire life and want to be able to spread the love by taking care of your fur babies. I currently have 2 playful cats at home, but have been a dog person all my life (until this year lol). I have experience taking care of cats, dogs, puppies kittens… whatever your pet needs!

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, I’ve cared, helped, and loved for 10 dogs at one time. I trained, bathed, feed and provided all basic. I’ve had more than a dozen dogs who’ve been pregnant (not at once) but I do know how to care for a pregnant momma and new born puppies. I’m well aware of the do’s and don’ts of pet sitting. Monday - Friday, 6:00pm to midnight longer if needed. Saturday I’m free all day, I’m free Sunday in the morning until 10am and available after 1pm to the rest of the day I feed, bathe, and give them water and take care of all basic necessities. I take them on walks and to the park and give them lots of cuddles! :D
“As always Hilary is professional, kind, considerate and comforting when I have to leave my furbies behind while I travel until I return. This was the first time I’ve ever done drop in visits and was nervous leaving the kitties by themsvles but she took very good care of them while calming my separation anxieties. She’s awesome, five stars every time!”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs and cats that I adored and cared for. Over the years, I’ve also had the opportunity to care for friends’ pets whenever they needed a helping hand. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a former client’s dog for four years before she passed away. That experience taught me just how important patience, consistency, companionship, and treating every pet like family truly are. I understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I’m committed to providing loving, attentive care while giving pet parents peace of mind. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to spend quality time caring for your pets. 🐾 I’m available after 6 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and I’m happy to keep your pets company and give them lots of love and attention until you’re home. I’m also available for overnight boarding on weekends. Whether your pet needs some extra cuddles, playtime, or simply a calm and loving presence, I’d be happy to be there for them while you’re away! 🧡🐶🐱 I provide care in your home, where your pets are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, playtime, walks, cuddles, and any other care they need. My goal is to give your pets plenty of love and attention while keeping them happy, comfortable, and feeling at ease while you’re away.

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 .

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.
