About: I have a special love for dogs and walking! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to take care of their pets. I currently work full time. I am available after 4pm M-F and all day on weekends. I’d love to take your pets out on busy evenings or weekends! I offer pet watching at other clients homes. My current roommate has a dog and for safety and comfort I’d like your pet in their own home and environment.
About: I have dog sat for a handful of people over the years. Some new clients and some faithful returning ones that become family friends. Some have needed medication and lots of walks, some just needed a friend, I love doing anything/everything. I do not currently own any pets and would love to be outside and more active. I would be available to do walks/drop ins around 3:30pm-9pm Monday-Thursday and most times Fridays-Sundays. Dog sitting availability depends on needs and pet schedule but please reach out about anything! I have worked with crates, dog doors, or dogs being inside all day and need walks/potty breaks. I hope we can work something out between us and your loved fur baby.
“I am a first time customer. Abby made the experience great. She walked me through the process and made me feel confident about the care she takes with our cat. She was professional, reliable and so kind. I’m looking forward to scheduling Abby for April and July vacations if she’s available.”
About: I've grown up with dogs of all sizes and have hands-on experience training and caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own, a 14 year old Pekingese and a 8 year old Husky, which has given me daily experience managing both small and large dogs with very different needs and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and active or prefers a slower pace, I'm comfortable providing safe, attentive care, exercise, and companionship. My background with dogs big and small allows me to adapt to each pet's unique routine and help them feel comfortable and well cared! My flexible schedule allows me to give your pets lots of attention, love, playtime, and exercise. I'm committed to making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way! My number one priority is making sure your pets feel comfortable and secure in their own home. I understand that every pet adjusts at their own pace, so I give them the time and space they need to build trust and feel at ease. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or quiet companionship. My goal is to provide attentive, loving care while helping them feel safe, relaxed, and happy in their familiar environment.
About: I'm a huge fan of active dogs, and I love going on walks and playing outside with them. I also have experience with senior pets and in giving medications. I'm a self-employed clinical massage therapist, and am able to adjust my schedule to fulfill whatever needs you or your pets may have, including doing various walks or appointments as needed. I can drive up to any location and keep your pet in a safe and familiar space while I'm taking care of them, as well as make sure your home is maintained well.
“We chose Mary-Elizabeth based on all of the other client reviews. In practice, her services did not disappoint! We got regular updates on our Maine Coin mix, Logan. She included photos, video and status notations. As we traveled, our phones had 2G capability much of the time, so access for the Rover app was so-so. When we let Mary-Elizabeth know this, she also texted us photos and links, which greatly put our minds at ease. All we can say is THANK YOU! If we need a sitter again, we will definitely look up Mary-Elizabeth first.”
About: Hi there! My name is Logan, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets through Rover and in my personal life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and needs. My goal is simple: make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every animal is different, and I’m happy to follow the routine you already have in place. Whether that means specific feeding times, walks, potty schedules, crate routines, medications or special instructions, lots of exercise, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet receives the care they’re accustomed to. I’m also attentive to body language and behavioral cues, which helps me recognize what an animal needs and adjust accordingly. I also have hands-on training experience. I personally trained my Siberian Husky, Atlas, and completed training classes with him through Petco. Working with a high-energy and intelligent breed has given me plenty of experience with patience, consistency, exercise, boundaries, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated. For dogs who love to stay active, I have a large, securely fenced backyard with plenty of room to run and play, along with trails and walking routes nearby. For dogs who prefer a quieter stay, I’m just as happy providing a comfortable environment, attention, and companionship at their own pace. I’m also very comfortable caring for cats and understand that they often require a different approach. Whether your cat wants to follow me around all day or would rather have their own space, I’ll respect their personality and make sure their normal routine is maintained. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pet like a member of the family, follow your instructions closely, and keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in experienced and caring hands. I normally have a flexible routine that can be worked around whatever is best for you and your furball. I do ask for a few hours notice to be available. I treat your home as my own and your pets as my own. I normally like to keep things clean, cozy, and respectful. I feel like that’s the normal experience anyone wants when walking into a home or meeting someone for the first time. So why not make it any everything you do type of thing!
About: I treat every dog like my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment. I’m patient, reliable, and always pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs gentle care, I adjust my approach to make them feel comfortable. Im currently working remotely and part time, so I have plenty of time to make pet care part of my daily routine. Great help for you and for me I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel relaxed and happy. I keep a consistent routine with regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and quiet rest periods. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and energy level, and adjust activities to fit their personality.
About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs for quite some time. I have done multiple overnight stays for family friends, neighbors, colleagues, etc. I also am a regular with drop by visits and even taking dogs out for a walk while their owners are at work. I love to take dogs for long walks or even on runs if they have the energy! If some dogs need longer walks (1+ hours), I will be happy to take them longer. Pet care fits into my routine as an important part of my daily life. I work from home and am committed to providing the best possible care for the pets I take care of. Throughout the day when I take care of pets (whether at my home or clients home), I send lots of photos to the owners to give them updates throughout the day, sometimes a little too much! I do work from home, therefore I am able to provide more one-on-one care. I will make it my priority to make sure they are safe, fed, have lots of cuddles, went to the bathroom, etc. On top of that, when I stay over at a client's home, it is important for myself to keep it cleaner than when I first walked into the home. I also respect house rules and other necessities that were discussed before giving care.

I have a heart for all dogs and am excited at the opportunity to help out in the community and provide a home for your dog when needed! I have personally experienced the need to have last minute pet care and know first hand how hard it is to find someone you trust to watch your fur-baby. I have a flexible schedule, a nice comfortable home, and a family who loves animals. I'm able to take your dog on walks around the neighborhood, play fetch, provide the care that you want, and give lots of love and pets when wanted. I'm currently working full time, with work from home benefits and a flexible schedule! I am able to take your dog outside whenever they need. I have a 2100 sq ft home with pet friendly spaces downstairs. I have a fenced in back yard, and easy and safe neighborhood to walk your dog with lots of grass.
About: I may be newer to professional pet sitting, but I bring a full year of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’m patient with puppies as they learn, gentle with seniors who need a slower pace, and comfortable giving oral medications when needed. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood — and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. Pet care is a natural part of my week — I set aside time every day for walks, play, and check-ins with the pets I look after. I plan my schedule around their needs so I can give them steady attention, whether it’s a morning potty break, an afternoon walk, or evening cuddles. Keeping them safe, happy, and loved is something I enjoy building into my routine I make every effort to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable. In my home: I create a calm space where pets can relax, play, and stick to their usual routine. I provide regular walks or yard time, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of cuddles or playtime based on their personality. I keep an eye on them at all times and make sure they have a cozy spot to rest.
“Amanuel was great! He came on time everyday, and made sure my cat had lots of clean food, water, and a clean box. He offered to play with her too, but she’s just a little shy. The offer was so kind though. I’m so happy I went went him and recommend him to anyone!”
About: I walked dogs for an elderly woman thru college. I watched my family and friends dogs on numerous occasions. My own family has elderly dogs that I have helped care for. I work from home Monday and Friday, available to house sit or change my schedule to fit any long term match. Available for drop in visits daily. I am respectful of personal space and staying committed to any schedule plan laid out. I am flexible and easy to get ahold of, in case a plan changes last minute.
About: I am a big animal lover! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and periodically watched animals for friends and family throughout the years. I have delt with animals with disabilities, old age, medications and puppies. I just love animals and everything that comes with them. My pets are my current job right now! I am working on starting a small business from home so caring for my animals or others animals is my top prority! I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love making friends with new dogs. We are all also big cat lovers! We have a dog house outside if your pet prefers and we take our animals on daily walks and/or car rides.
About: With a lifelong love for dogs and a spacious, half-acre, fully fenced backyard, your dog will have plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. Our family loves dogs, and my teenage kids enjoy giving them extra playtime and attention. Our friendly Bernedoodle also loves making new friends! Rest assured, your dog will be treated like family and receive plenty of love, attention, and excellent care. I have a flexible work schedule and update my Rover availability based on the days I'm working remotely or have time off. This allows me to be home throughout the day to provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and care for your dog. In our home, we know that playtime and companionship are essential. Your dog will sleep indoors in a crate or kennel and spend most of the day with our family in our downstairs living area. They'll have access to our fully fenced backyard throughout the day for potty breaks, fetch, and plenty of time to run and play. We also enjoy regular walks around our neighborhood, and your dog will receive lots of love, attention, and care while they're with us.
“Branden took excellent care of our senior dog and our two cats. Our dog is not often left behind, so we were concerned about how she'd do now that she's older, but Branden had her relaxed and happy, and she did great. The cats always do great with him - lots of fun, lots of great photos. Thank you Branden!”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pearson
Bailey is an exceptional sitter. She goes above and beyond. She gave great reports. She made us feel that our pets were safe and cared for. She alerted us when necessary and at the same time did not create drama or unnecessary worry. She updated us with pictures and information that was exactly what a traveling pet parent needs to feel calm and know that their pets are in capable and caring hands. I highly recommend Bailey. She puts the client first and provides thorough care. Thinking two steps ahead, anticipating needs, listening intently to the subtle and direct needs of the client. She is exceptional!
Jessica is our go-to sitter. She takes care of our fur family while we're gone - but more importantly than just making sure our kitties have food, water and litter, she spends time with them - makes sure they get treats, and spends a little time playing with them. That's so important to keep them enriched, since we are not home to do this. On top of that, she keeps up with cleaning the cat litter and cat messes that they make while we're gone. She is the best sitter we've ever used, and we've used her services a number of times now - and will keep doing so for our trips where the kitties can't go with us.
Lisa as always just does an outstanding job taking care of our cat Callie. We always know she is well cared for looking at the pictures she sends. Callie has come to know her so it makes it nice that she interacts with her. We highly recommend her for great care with your animals. Linda Johnson
Julie was great! My fur baby absolutely loved her. She was consistent with communication (pictures/videos) and care for him. She followed instructions and schedules to the T! As well very polite interactions from the very beginning c:. If you’re looking for someone that will make your baby feel the upmost comfortable and loved when you’re gone, Julie is the way to go! Thank you again, I appreciate you so much! c:
Very friendly, and took great care of my pups! They took to him right away and were immediate friends. Great communication, always kept me updated and asked questions when issues came up. Highly recommend him to take care of your pets, definitely will book with him again on future care needs.
Absolutely amazing!! Very responsive, took good care of our cats, and very sweet! There was definitely a comfort in knowing that someone that was reliable and sweet to our babies was taking good care of them while we were gone! Made our trip so much more relaxing since we didn’t have to stress or worry about our cats. Also did amazing with our one cat who has a lot of food allergies and requires a little more care when it comes to his food (eats special food and we have feeders that will only open for the specific cat’s microchip)! Overall, highly recommend and will 100% be rebooking!!
Aaron was very good with my dog Axel and helpful with my separation anxiety leading up to my vacation. He was consistent in his drop in visits and gave thorough reports on my dog to help me feel better and keep track of how my dog was fairing while I was away. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about dogs, and will take care of your pet like they are his own. 5 out of 5 stars, would hire again.
Wonderful sitter. She is always on time, very responsive to communication and is great at last minute changes, including adding drop in visits and changes to pet needs. It can be very difficult to find reliable sitters for your pets. And I feel I have finally found one!
Brianna is amazing! She has dog sat our 2 precious girls for more than 6 months. She is one of the most caring and flexible caretakers we have came across on this app. You can tell immediately that she is experienced and communicates well. 10/10, highly recommend.
Sarah, as always, is amazing. I trust her to care for and love my critters like her own. My geriatric kitty cat hauls her old bones out of her heated cat bed to climb down the stairs and greet Sarah. I've seen her do it, and she doesn't even get herself up to greet ME! She's particular and crotchety as all hell, but she loves Sarah. Honestly, there's no greater evidence that somebody is good people as when an old calico gives her stamp of approval consistently. Neko thinks a visit from Auntie Sarah is the best thing. Only just slightly less so then a Churu, IYKYK!!

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.
