“Paige was an amazing caregiver for our cats. She showed them so much love and attention in addition to taking care of them. I look forward to her taking care of them again in the future!”

About: I have at least 8 years of experience with my family dog (25lbs), but he’s recently crossed the rainbow. I have also dog sat for close family and friends. I am comfortable giving oral meds, adjusting to different needs of your pet, and love taking them out on walks or to dog parks. Happy to send pictures and respond to questions in a timely manner. Please let me know if there’s any special care your pup needs! Hi! I’m here to keep your pup happy, loved and safe while you’re out! Friends describe me as a responsible, caring, and warm! I work from home, so I’m pretty flexible. Please let me know what works best for your dog and we can coordinate. I am open to 2 dogs if from the same family/client. I will make sure to lock up any doors before leaving, check and refill the food and water levels. Will also play with them using their toys and give treats! If we go on a walk, I will keep the leash at a controlled length and make sure to pick up after they do their business. Will be taking photos as well!
“Madison was amazing!! We felt so comfortable with her right away and so did our cat. He liked her right when she came to our door. She kept us up to date, sending pictures and videos. She even cleaned up after him. So happy we found her.”

About: I am an educator and musician who loves animals and enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. As an animal lover and cat owner myself, I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s a dog walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I take pride in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and attention. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pet. My professional background has taught me the importance of reliability, genuine care, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to arrange my schedule around my clients’ needs and provide dependable care for their pets. The safety and well-being of your pets is always my top priority. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and take care to follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and personality needs closely. During dog walks, I use secure leash handling at all times and remain alert to surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs and always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive experiences for your pet. For cat sitting and drop-in visits, I ensure doors and windows are securely closed, litter boxes are cleaned properly, food and water are refreshed, and your cat is comfortable and stress-free. I also take time to provide companionship and gentle interaction based on each cat’s comfort level. I am reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In case of any emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you provide, including reaching out to your preferred veterinarian if needed. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after while you are away.
“We highly recommend Jaza for all your pet sitter needs! She is a great communicator and very knowledgeable! Our Miso is shy and scared and Jaza was able to create a trusting bond with him in just a few days! This was the first time we left him and he had an accident the first day from nerves. Jaza went above and beyond to clean and sanitize the area and helped him feel comfortable. Her patience with him helped me feel less anxious about leaving him. We will absolutely have Jaza watch Miso for all future trips. Miso was a happy cat when we returned, thank you Jaza!”

“Catherine is the BEST! Hands down, the best dog sitter! This is our third time having Catherine care for our dog and once again, it was a great experience. We love that she sends detailed messages with photos after each visit. She not only makes sure of dog is cared for but also our home. She makes the home looked lived in while we’re away and I’m so appreciative of her services. Thank you, Catherine! ☺️🐶”

“Erin was super with our dog pack ! Very thoughtful and caring - especially considering we have an older dog that is a bit fickle now. Highly recommend Erin, you will be in good hands with her !!”

“This was our first time using Rover for drop-in visits, and Erik made the experience very smooth. He even did a meet-up beforehand to make sure our dog was comfortable with him. He was very responsive and great at giving updates, which gave us peace of mind. Highly recommend him!”

About: I have always loved working and playing with animals! For many years I volunteered at the dog adoption days every Saturday at PetSmart. My chores around the house involve both bathing and walking my dogs. I have walked and hosted both my cousins dogs and my next door neighbor’s. I love working out and getting outdoors, so dog walking is a perfect way to do that as well as benefiting the dog too. My schedule is super flexible, especially because I am a grad student with very few classes and all of them are online.

I am very flexible with my schedule and would be willing to dog sit and dog walk accordingly to needed days and times. Thank you! I walk my dogs according to their need and feed at certain times a day. I love playing fetch and giving attention to all dogs and cats.

“We could not have asked for a more caring, capable, and loving care for our two dogs. Sara quickly learned to inject one of my dogs with insulin shots while our dogs are under her care. We would definitely ask her service again!”
“Ji Hae was wonderful with our dogs. She came to meet them before we left town. She fed both and medicated our Australian Shepherd/Husky mix. Ji Hae walked both dogs and made sure they had plenty of water. She kept us updated with photos and left the house neat. I’m confident in recommending Ji Hae’s services.”

About: Hi there! I grew up with animals and have been around them my entire life. My Grammy was part of the Golden Retriever Club of LA, a dog trainer, and a breeder. I assisted her many times growing up whenever she had a litter of puppies. I was even able to experience being in the operation room during one of the births to support the puppies when they were born. Animals have been a big part of my life and they have created so many beautiful memories for me to cherish! Currently, I have availability off and on throughout most days. I am a graduate student, so my schedule can change. Please refer to my calendar or ask me before booking! I have lots of experience caring for other's pets and family's pets as well over the years. I am always mindful when going into people's homes and often try to find small ways to leave it looking better than when I arrived.

Ruby was great! I booked last minute when I was out of town because I was having trouble getting someone to stop by and feed my cat. She was willing to stop by same day, even though I was only able to book the next day. She was super attentive and communicative.

Gabby has a great understanding of canine/human dynamics and used that skillset to deliver an outstanding visit with our dogs. Being the first time watching them (Carson & Charlie) in our/their home space, she immediately gained the dog's trust and then expanded the relationship by playing games with them (chase, fetch, etc.). She took them on a pleasant walk through the neighborhood, something both dogs enjoyed very much. Throughout the visit Gabby kept us informed via pictures and videos, which alleviated any pet-parent anxiety we might have had. I wholeheartedly recommend Gabby for your pet care needs. You're welcome to reach out to me for any additional details and/or questions.

Christina goes above and beyond and is extremely available and responsive. She is also very patient with my very shy pet making an effort to reach out and comfort her while I am away. She is the best on all aspects and I am extremely happy with her capabilities and open, clear communication.

Savannah was a wonderful help while we were away. She takes great care of our place and puts the cats as her first priority. She always gives a detailed message and knows how Tom and Ciri like their litter/food/water/play time. She spoils them while we are away and we know they are in good hands. Tom and Ciri are always well cared for when we return. Thank you!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
