“Siobhan was a wonderful sitter for my two kitties. She played with them daily, talked with them, fed them, and cared for them. I loved the photos that she sent daily as well. She was punctual, reliable and communicated wonderfully about the kitties daily, keeping me very well-informed. I appreciated so much her taking such great care of my kitties.”
“Even though I had an issue with one of my dogs, she continued caring for my other two and was incredibly attentive. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. She is such a sweetheart—kind, loving, attentive, and very careful with the dogs. Thank you so much for everything!”
About: Hi there, my name’s Taylor and I’m new to Rover! I’m very excited to begin my new part time career as a petsitter. I’ve never had a job based around animal care, however i’ve had years of experience watching friend’s / family’s pets. I also own a dog myself, so I understand that they need all the love and attention they can get! I’m happy to stop by and feed, walk, bathe, and spend some quality time with your furry friends. I’m open to looking after dogs / puppies, cats, or even multiple animals! I’m very responsible when it comes to time management and completing tasks. I’m also easy going and will try to be as flexible as possible. I hope you’ll consider me and I can’t wait to meet you and your little buddy / buddies! I am a part time nursing student so my calendar fills up pretty fast, but I promise to create a schedule that works best for everyone! I’m usually free during the day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I’ve always fed my pets first thing in the morning and when I got home from school / work. I’m willing to follow any feeding schedule you may have as well. I also play outside with my dog, take him on long walks, and once in a while complete his least favorite activity… bathing. It can be a little rough (no pun intended). I’m open to grooming / bathing your pup if needed too! Last but most certainly not least, the clean up. It’s normal for pets to have accidents or get into stuff they shouldn’t, especially when no one is home. If I spot anything out of place, It will get cleaned up asap. It’s important that you come home to a happy, healthy, and tidy space as well!
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and recently completed a veterinary assistant program through my school’s career and technical center, as well as volunteered at the local animal shelter. Through my training, I’ve learned safe animal handling, recognizing signs of illness, administering basic care, maintaining cleanliness, and keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of different ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Through my veterinary assistant training, I’ve learned safe handling techniques and how to recognize when a pet may not be feeling well. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, keep their environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident they’re receiving loving, dependable care.
“Izzy was absolutely amazing with my dog, Wyatt!! She went above and beyond and kept me updates with lots of photos which I loved! Wyatt was treated so well in her care. Will definitely use her again :)”

“We are beyond happy with Courtney. this was first time I felt at ease on vacation cuz we had a perfect person to look after our fuzzy Kitty Cats ,Courtney was absolutely amazing she treated Mr Putty and Mr Bruce like her own pets they got so much love and attention from her we are very appreciative and happy with her ! Thank you Courtney”
“She is amazing! She was able to accommodate a last minute request for us after two friends bailed on us. We have an anxious boy and she was amazing with him! No worries at all while we were traveling. Would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Amy was fantastic!! My whole family was heading out of town for a family wedding. I never had to have someone other than family watch my beloved "old man". Amy took great care of Marley. He wasn't at all stressed when I got home! I am sure I'll be booking Amy again! She even brought in my heavy Chewy box!! :)”
“Tabatha was a blessing! I felt at ease while on vacation with Tabatha caring for our pets. From what I can tell she kept them on their toes and probably did a better job then I would do! I never expected so many pictures of them either playing, eating, or just being goofy. Would definitely recommend and hope she's available next time!”
“Paige exceeded all of our expectations. My three large dogs were well taken care of, and when we arrived home, we figured we would have a mess to deal with because of the weather and muddy back yard, but Paige kept up with everything, again, above and beyond our expectations. Paige sent us updates daily, with pics of the dogs. These updates put us at ease that all was well back at home. Aside from all of this, we can tell that Paige is a genuinely good person that has a love for animals, treating ours as she would her own. If you are looking for a sitter, stop here and check her calendar, you wont regret it.”
“Moon did a great job with my girls. She is prompt and keeps in communication well. I love the pictures she provided so I can see my girls while I’m away. I would definitely recommend Moon. Thank you Moon🐾♥️🐾”
About: I am extremely clean and organized and when it comes to animals I love taking care of them and keeping there things clean and neat I'm currently doing part time bookkeeping for certain clients as well as teaching guitar lessons also part time so I am very open in terms of scheduling I have a large back and front yard and I live on a culdesac that is extremely dog-friendly and would be very easy for me to take them on frequent walks
About: I've had multiple dogs and cats my whole life and they have all been my best friends! We like to cuddle, go on walks and learn new skills. I'm no stranger to pets of all different personalities and know how to meet them where they are. I'm experienced in providing insulin to dogs and topical treatment to cats. I don't currently have pets of my own but have spent weeks looking after the cats and dogs of friends and family. I love those times that I'm able to bond with their fur babies and would love to get to know yours as well! I currently work remotely and can be available for boarding throughout the week and weekend. I'm available to hangout with your pets, take them on walks or bathroom breaks, feed times or personal enrichment, whatever they may need. I have a backyard that pets can run around in, it is fenced on one side only so they would need to have a long leash for safety. I don't have other pets so they wouldn't have any problems there! If coming to your home I'm happy to go by the rules that you set and the comfort levels that you have. I always find pets do best in their comfort zones anyway and I'm excited to meet them where they are!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Patterson Heights
Robert knew how to administer eye ointment when I discovered our kitty needed them the day before our trip! He swung by that night to make sure he had all the info he needed, and assured me he’d done the same with his own cat. It was such a relief and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation! We’re so lucky to have Robert as our go-to catsitter.
Gwynn checked on my two kitties while I was away on vacation and did a wonderful job. She accommodated some last minute requests no problem and was very pleasant to communicate with! She updated me every visit with a summary of the visit and lots of photos which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will certainly reach out to her in the future!

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.
