“Michelle was awesome. She sent great photos and videos, which is always nice when you’re away wondering how your cats are doing. She even let me know how they were acting and behaving when she was there. I would definitely hire her again!”

I would absolutely highly, highly recommend Mia and will definitely be using her services again in the future! Thank you Mia and Rover!”
“Our pup is on a food trial and needed to taking medication and each of his poop rated and logged. Rachel was excellent and carrying out all the meticulous instructions consistently and made sure to share pictures and elaborate feedback about each of her visits for three days we needed her help. Needless to say, Loki loved her. I highly recommend her and would definitely rebook”

About: I plan on making a career of working with animals by opening my own daycare/boarding facility out of my farmhouse! I have worked in a couple doggy daycares as well as an animal hospital for a short time & I learned quite a lot about the proper care animals need when away from their owners! My schedule is completely open & I am readily available to whoever may need my services any day of the week at any time needed! I always care for any pet as if they were my own and I respect every animal that I get the opportunity to meet whether in my own home or someone else’s home.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have been caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. Beyond pet sitting, I’ve worked at an SPCA and at a zoo, where I gained hands-on experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals. I also study animals professionally, so understanding animal behavior and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and understood is something I genuinely love. I’m comfortable with animals of all personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m a graduate student with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m generally available for dog walks in the mornings and evenings, and I have flexibility during the day depending on my class and research schedule. I’m also available for boarding on weekends. I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care! I live on the top floor of a house with plenty of space for pets to relax and a small yard for some outdoor time. I also have a very friendly cat who loves dogs and other animals, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a multi-animal home.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and even the occasional Axlotl for as long as I can remember! Trusted by friends, family, colleagues, neighbors, and strangers. Experience with: Dogs Young dogs Dogs with behavioral challenges Elderly dogs with medical needs Cats (The humble Axlotl) I work a few part time jobs, with some available daytime hours and some available nighttime hours. I always make sure to keep enough time for comprehensive pet care, meaning several walks a day, play, and leisure time together, but there are times when I must spend 6-10 hours out of the house. I have a beautiful, not-fully-enclosed yard that a leashed pet would love to spend time in. I keep a pet free home, but there are animals in my building. I do keep plants, not all of which are pet-safe, but I have a strict system for keeping them quarantined during animal care.
About: We love welcoming new friends for visits. We have a fully fenced backyard, plenty of space for playing, swimming in the puppy pool, napping, and cuddling. We’re located in a neighborhood made for long, leisurely walks. I also enjoy taking photos and am happy to send you updates as often (or as little) as you’d like. Schedule a meet-and-greet with us! We can’t wait to meet you! On the days I work from home and on weekends, we would love to have a dog-friend join us for the day, or for an overnight. If we’re somewhat neighbors, I am also available for walks over the weekend and possibly on weeknight(s). I have a fenced-in yard, home security, smoke and CO alarm. I do not crate our dog Lucy, but if you need me to do so for your dog, consider it done! I walk her in her harness around safe neighborhoods like Oak Hill in Pawtucket and on the East Side of Providence. I refrain from dog parks because I feel she is more comfortable with one on one play, but if there is a certain park you'd like me to take your dog to, I'd be happy to.
About: I have professional dog caring experience, I am certified in pet first aid, and I work for a pet service company. I have experience with big dogs and cats, and also will administering oral medications and insulin injections. I grew up with various pets, so I can handle different types of animals. I love animals, and I will be more than happy to take care of your fur baby. I work a full time job in the morning so I have time in the evenings and weekends for visits, cuddles, feedings and dog walking. I am very attentive when walking dogs and am careful about what they do on the walk. I also always double check that the pet has everything they need before I leave the visit.
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dog for years, and over time friends started trusting me with theirs too. I’m reliable, I pay attention to what each dog needs, and I genuinely enjoy having them around. I’m currently working from home but can take time out of my day during to take care of pets and walk dogs. Since I work from home, I am typically also available to house-sit. I have a cozy townhome in which the dog will have lots of room to move around and plenty of space outside for me to take them on a walk.
“Our dog usually takes awhile to warm up to people which is why I was shocked at how quickly she warmed up to Jessica. She came home very happy and tired after their hike. You can tell how much she already loves Jessica - she even jumped up by the window to watch her leave , which she doesn’t normally do for other people. Highly recommend Jessica !”

Shawn was great, making drop in visits for our two cats over several days. We came home to everything spotlessly clean, feeding dishes washed and litter boxes scooped. She communicated well and asked lots of questions in our meet and greet. I highly recommend Shawn!
Grace is absolutely wonderful. She’s dependable, kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about my dogs. I’m admittedly very particular about who I trust with my babies, and with Grace, I never have to worry. I know they’re safe, well cared for, and probably being spoiled just the right amount. She treats them like they’re her own, and that kind of trust is priceless. If your pets are family and your standards for their care are high, Grace is your girl. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Grace, for taking such amazing care of my babies!
Emily is the best sitter we’ve used on the Rover app! She made notes during our first meet and greet, gave our kitty so much love while we were away, and went out of her way to keep our kitty comfortable by managing the A/C during hot days. I 100% recommend booking with Emily.
Xavier was an amazing support in such a last min bind. 🙌🏾 he showed up and was professional and got the job done with care. Especially with care, I have an older doggie and he has daily meds/ointments/diapers and non of this was too much for X he took care of our Frankie and we will be hitting him up again.

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.

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.
