About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech
About: I have always had dogs growing up. I currently have a French Bulldog that is my 2nd baby. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were mine. I just moved to the Bakersfield area from La where I had established a good Rover schedule but have to start over meeting new furry friends. Thanks for the consideration to prove I am worthy of caring for your dogs when you can’t, the next best thing :) I am OPEN to take care of your fur baby, call or text to book me mornings, evenings, weekends or holidays. I am now in early retirement and just want to meet new fuzzy friends and get exercise. I consider dogs "babies". I am honest, trustworthy, always on time. I will love your dog(s) as if they were my own. I am looking to enter a different part of my life, centered around things that make me happy....DOGS!
About: I’ve taken care of my dog for 13 years which helped me gain experience. My neighbors have also allowed me to babysit, walk, and feed their pets. I am currently playing for a local soccer team that allows me to have a flexible schedule. I am free most hours during the week and on the weekends. When visiting a pet at a clients home I make sure to let the dog get used to me first beforehand. If the yard is fenced, I would love to play outside with them. I would also give lots of pets and cuddles if they enjoy it.
About: I have four pets of my own, three dogs and one cat! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15, from dog sitting overnight or just during the day. My parents coworkers always relied on me to stay with their dogs, feed them, and play with them. I have time available during the week and weekend to do what I enjoy doing, and that is taking care of animals. I love being energetic and provide the care animals need. I have a huge backyard to keep my dogs entertained. I also have plenty of toys my dogs don’t use because they are extremely picky. I follow the specific directions my clients direct me to. It varies between each client but I feed them as many times they tell me, make sure they have their certain blanket next to them when they sleep. Leave the light on because they are scared of the dark. Give them certain treats after they use the bathroom or do tricks. Take them on a walk with the correct harnesses, clean up after them etc.
About: I’ve raised multiple dogs for my whole life.Pets are my priority and well being. I am passionate about giving all animals their best life possible! I am currently available every weekday and weekends when notified prior. From early mornings to late nights my time is for the pets. Always able to accommodate for the pets sake. I have a indoor cat and an outdoor dog at home including two in tank turtles! My services are preferred in house sitting, and walk sitting!
About: I’m a reliable pet parent with 2 years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I genuinely love animals and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, giving medication if needed, and following special routines. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to care for their pets because I’m patient, responsible, and attentive. I currently have a part time schedule but also flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and overnight care depending on your needs. I’m reliable with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and kept in a clean, calm environment. I carefully follow any routines, feeding instructions, medications, or special care requests provided by owners. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while in my care.
About: I have 4 years of experience volunteering at a local animal shelter where I would take care and the puppies. As well as giving the adult and bigger dogs outside socialization time in the play yard. I’ve also watched and walked dogs for multiple friends and neighbors. I do work full time so on weekdays I would be available evenings only (after 5pm). But my weekends are fully open to care for your fur babies. Safety is extremely important to me. With my time volunteering at an animal shelter I learned the proper way to walk dogs not familiar with me and how to spot different animal behaviors. (Stress, timid, angry). I do like to set a meet and greet time to get to know your pet and their routines and any special needs they may have. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable with me. I am also more than happy to provide photo updates of any drop ins or cute moments during walks.
About: I also have experience with small birds (parakeets) and big birds (cockatoo) and I’m also a animal groomer if you would like to have your animal groomed. I have a full time job I do rover as a side job to help with extra bills. I also house sit for my cousin whenever she needs me. She has three birds and a schnauzer that I take care of. When watching animals and carrying for a house, I always put the animals in the house needs first and take acting if something happens animals are always my priority.
About: I have taken care of many different pets throughout all my life, i like to care of all animals that people wanted me to look after. I've had the pleasure of looking after my family's pets, neighbors pets,complete strangers pets and my friends pets. I'm a student at a online college with a flexible school schedule, so i'll have plenty of time to look after and care for you furry friends. Our yard is fenced so all the pets are secure, they are all well feed everyday and are cleaned as well as groomed all around. I am currently doing my college classes online, so it should be quite easy to work your pet into my schedule for the foreseeable future. I have a fenced off yard and i have a little kiddie pool for them to play in,plenty of pet toys around and more than enough pet food.

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.
