“Kathleen did a great job taking care of our old beagle. It really gave us peace of mind to have her checking in with us to let us know how our old guy was managing.”
“Jasmine was great with my Kobe! This was my first time using Rover and based off of my first time I would highly recommend the services. Jasmine dropped in to feed my dog as scheduled and even had a little play time with him. I got regular updates along with pictures of Kobe as well. Will definitely book again! ⭐️”
“We were away for six days and felt so comfortable leaving our Siamese cat, Gus, with Michelle. Gus has a lot of personality and usually doesn't like many people, but Michelle truly had the magic touch! He was completely at ease and so cuddly with her. She was great at communicating and we loved getting all the photo updates. We will definitely book her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parkville
Meghan was very kind, attentive, and communicative with the first drop in visit with Junie. Junie took a little bit to warm up, but Meghan was patient and used her knowledge to help ease the situation. Junie got comfortable with Meghan and overall, I was very pleased.
Catherine has made traveling stress free for our family, and we’re so grateful we found her! We first booked her last minute over Memorial Day, and she was incredibly accommodating, calm, and thoughtful with both us and our 9 year old Border Collie/Lab, Raine, who gets a serious case of the blues and anxiety when we leave. Catherine met Raine exactly where she was, and by day 3 she was all tail wags when Catherine showed up. Her detailed updates gave us peace of mind, and we knew right away we’d book with her again. On our most recent trip, Raine was excited to see her from the start, which says everything about how caring and fun Catherine is. She also handled an unexpected encounter with an unruly dog during a walk with good judgment and care, making sure Raine and everyone involved stayed safe. That kind of attentiveness means so much when you're trusting someone with your pup. I feel completely comfortable leaving Raine in her hands, and I’d recommend Catherine in a heartbeat. We already have future trips planned and will absolutely be booking with her again!
Crissy took great care of Vinny during her drop-in visit. We did a meet and greet first and she was super patient with him since he is slow to get to know new people. She asked great questions at the meet and greet, then gave thorough (and cute!) updates after the visit. He was comfortable with her and she kept his occupied and happy.
Erin was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Lola, while we were away for a week. She stopped by twice a day to walk her, feed her, and give her plenty of attention. Lola adored her from day one. What really impressed us was Erin’s calm, thoughtful care during an unexpected heat wave. She kept us updated, adjusted Lola’s routine to keep her safe, and made sure she stayed healthy and comfortable despite the weather. Her communication was timely, kind, and incredibly reassuring. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup — the best sign of all. We highly recommend Erin as a sitter to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly attentive.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Parkville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Parkville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Parkville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
