“Rachael was awesome! She was very conscientious and polite, but most importantly, she knew just how to make our cat feel comfortable and cared for while we were away. We will definitely have her back next time.”
“Sebastian took exceptional care of my three Rottweilers while I was away. He is fantastic with large breeds and handled all three of my babies with patience, confidence, and genuine care. He administered medications with ease, cleaned up after accidents without hesitation, and made sure they were happy and well cared for. One of the things I appreciated most was the daily pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust with large dogs, but Sebastian exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and knowledgeable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with him again!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Ranesha communicated well and quickly. She did everything as requested. I can’t thank her enough because my request was last minute. I’m confident my pups and I have met our forever friend”

About: I started caring for pets in school by looking after classmates pets and later helping neighbors.

About: I enjoy dogs. I like to watch them, play with them and give them belly rubs. i enjoy their company and having them nuzzle my hand for head rubs. I am retired, so I am available to give time and care to animals in my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy playing with dogs, getting them to "sing" and rewarding with healthy treats. I have a fairly large fenced yard. My home is open concept, so aside from private spaces, I can see and interact with dogs. I have two dogs, a dachshund and a mixed pekingese/terrier. Both are spayed with up to date vaccinations.
“Michelle did a great job checking on my dog Charlie! She was right on time with the visits. She also communicated and sent several pics. Charlie looked like he was having a great time!”
About: Welcome to your dog's safe, happy, and fun-filled home away from home. I have loved and cared for my own pets for decades, and have spent the past 5 years caring for others' furry family members. I'm an experienced dog walker and trainer, and am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes. I have 3 years of experience training dogs and puppies, including working with reactive and fearful pups. Regardless of your dog's particular quirks, they are welcome here! I am an experienced foster, dog walker, and trainer for the local humane society. I am confident managing dogs with behavioral issues, including reading body language, and keeping dogs separate from other animals if they require that. I am comfortable giving medication, both orally and via injections, and I will give patient and loving care to your sick or senior dogs who need a little extra love. I am happy to keep up with any training while you're away (be it puppy training, potty training, obedience work, or leash manners.) I treat all my dog guests like part of the family, and your dogs are welcome to join the pack while they are here, any day of the week! I work full-time, but always come home for an hour at lunchtime to care for and tend to the dogs. Everyone gets a walk and yard time before I head to work, and plenty of playtime and attention when I get home. Dogs are never left for more than 4 hours. What your dog can expect: 🐕🦺Leash walks! Your dog will enjoy at least one solid walk every day (either on his own, or joining my two dogs for a pack walk). 🦴🥎 Secure Playtime! Your dog will love romping and playing in my fenced backyard, lounging under the trees, and splashing in the doggy pool. All playtimes are well-supervised, to ensure everyone is well-mannered and safe. 💤 Quiet private space: There are two doggy guest suites set up in my home, complete with their own bed, crate, food & water dishes. This ensures that your dog can relax during naptimes, meal-times, and bedtimes, without any other pups bothering them. 🏠 Part of the family When your dogs are here, they're part of the pack, and I'll care for them just like my own dogs. This means equal access to couches, dog beds, belly rubs, and frisbees. Depending on your dog's needs, they may join my dogs in the house and yard, or they may get their own solo couch time & play time, if they prefer not to be around other dogs. Whatever makes them feel at home, that's what we'll provide.
“Veronica took care of our 4 dogs for 10 days and did a wonderful job. She was always on time, kept us updated on how the gang was doing and made sure each pet stayed on their routine. We received many pics of the pets and you could see everyone was well taken care of during our trip. Will definitely use Veronica in the future!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Palmetto
Summer did an amazing job taking care of my 2 cats while I was out of town for 4 days doing drop-in-visits four times a day. She sent me pictures, videos, and answered any questions I sent her throughout the visits. This was my first time using a sitter service, and I’ll definitely be a return Rover customer requesting Summer’s services.

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.
