“Stephanie was amazing. I cannot speak highly enough of her. She is kind and considerate, trustworthy, punctual, and amazing with my cat. I recently lost my other cat a few weeks before I left for vacation, and Stephanie came twice a day, every day, and made sure my remaining cat, Marley, was kept company and alright through his grief and my absence. I’m pretty sure Marley likes Stephanie more than he likes me now!! During her check ins Stephanie sent tons of photos and videos of him and it was something I looked forward to everyday. I cannot recommend Stephanie enough and I look forward to having her over again the next time I am away. Thank you Stephanie!!!!”

“We had a great experience! Jessica was very communicative and kept us updated throughout the visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She did an excellent job managing all three of our dogs—including our senior dog, who is very grumpy and selective about people. She took them all for a walk, made sure they had fresh water, and as requested, gave them a snack before she left. It was clear she was patient, attentive, and comfortable handling different personalities. We would absolutely book with her again!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I adjust my care to match their energy levels, medical needs, and routines. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and any night after 4 pm. There will always be a trusted adult at home to keep your furry friend happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard and a border collie living at home. He is extremely friendly and his best friend is my brother's teacup Yorkie, so he gets along with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments!
“Cassidy got fantastic photos of the pets, her notes were thorough and helped put us at ease while we travelled. She was very kind, flexible, communicative and caring with the animals. Would rebook in an instant!”

About: I've taken pet care seriously since my childhood dog passed away several years ago. I have taken care of senior dogs, and currently a hyperactive dog I've had since she was 3 months old. I previously worked at Petsmart, so I can administer medication to a variety of pets, including lizards and birds! You can trust me with your puppy, houstrained or not, up to your oldest, biggest dog. I also take care of the family cat and love spending time with cats in general. During the weekdays and weekends I have all the time in the world for your pet as needed! Early days or late nights are just fine. Whatever your pet wants or needs, I can give 100%. They can get up on the couch with me, I will give them long walks and they'll get plenty of belly rubs and treats! For cats they're such picky little rascals that I will adjust to their needs, whether that's playing or giving them space.
“Theo and Julian are great to work with. They were very responsive. I appreciated the flexibility for meet and greet and first drop in. The pictures and notes were excellent! I'll definitely rebook with Theo.”

“Jessica was great!! She was able to help with Dexter and Romeo at a last minute request. She took great care of our dogs and communication was excellent. We will definitely book her again!”

“This was our 1st time using Hannah and she took great care of our 2 babies. They always looked so happy in all the wonderful pictures Hannah would send. She was always on time too. We will definitely use Hannah again. Thank you!”


“Ardin did a great job with our big 100 lb. boy, Charlie, for 11 days, 3x a day drop in visits. The photos she included, with the activities they did (walks and soccer) showed a happy dog. Her texts really reassured us about how well it was going and we plan on rebooking with Ardin for a long family wedding this fall!”

I make sure to provide the most pleasant and rewarding experience by sticking to any routines, training, and treats while catering to your animals specific character. While being outside (in the yard or on walks) I ensure that the yard is properly closed off and/or they are wearing the proper gear for the selected activity.

“Jeanne was great and very responsive. I had full confidence my cats were being well cared for while I was away. I would definitely recommend Jeanne and hope to reschedule her services for future dates.”

About: I grew up always having at least one dog in my home, I now have two. I was tasked with feeding, walking, and playing with them. Often times when neighbors and friends would go out of town I would look after their pets, staying at their house when needed. I have a pretty flexible schedule during the week, I am booked from 11am to 1pm most of the week and from 11am to 4pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays. On the weekends I often go away, but I can likely be available if requested. When caring for someone’s pet I always make sure to follow the instructions given. This can rang from their diet, to their bathroom / walking schedule, to whatever else they may need.
“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Alanna, a lifelong dog lover with both personal and professional experience caring for pets. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and I’ve worked as a shift lead at a pet store for over 2 years, where I also handle dogs in the grooming department. This means I’m very comfortable working with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments including anxious or high-energy dogs. I have experience with handling, basic grooming support, and reading dog behavior, so your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work part-time and take most of my college classes online, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. I always adjust my care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal schedule to minimize stress, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and provide regular updates. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment with constant supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. My experience working in a pet store and handling dogs in grooming has made me confident with a wide range of temperaments, so safety and comfort are always my top priorities.
“Ria was an amazing sitter for us when we left for an international trip for our cat Lily. She takes so many adorable photos and videos that we loved watching while we were away. She was incredibly descriptive with her check-ins and was great with Lily and making sure she checked with us about her feeding habits etc to make sure what was normal for her. We’re so lucky to have found her as we just recently moved to the area and needed a new cat sitter- thanks so much Ria!”

“Allison was very friendly and communication was great, making for a very seamless experience. We have 3 cats, one of which is diabetic and requires insulin injections. We were very comfortable with leaving our cats in Allison’s care and will definitely book again!”

“Samantha was so great with our hyperactive nutball German shepherd Remington! We get nervous leaving her with people but she responded so amazingly to Samantha! Very clear that she loves animals and it showed with how happy our pup was!”


About: Hello & welcome to my profile! I have been blessed by growing up around animals my entire life! My older brother has had dogs as small as a Poodle/Chihuahua mix (Ari) and as large as a Newfoundland (Armand - which I was able to help leash train)! My brother has relied on me multiple times to take care of them, and I do so lovingly! In Ari’s later years, he trusted me to give him his medication, special diet food, and assist him walk around. Additionally, I grew up around cats for as long as I can remember and currently have two of my very own. Not only cats & dogs, but bunnies, gerbils, and guinea pigs are all animals I have taken care of under my own roof! I know that each pet has their own personality and therefore needs specialized care. I know how much I think about my own when I am away from them, and I would be honored to lovingly take care of them so you don’t have to stress it! I currently work full time M-F, but am consistently done with work by 3:00/4:00 pm. This gives me plenty of time to stop by and care for your animals during the week part time, or full time on the weekends! Within my own home, I make sure to be proactive with making sure my cats have fresh water and food in their bowls at consistent times. I do not currently own any pet supplies for a dog and I live in a one bedroom apartment with limited space. I am happy to house smaller animals when need be and take care of all other pets within their own furever home!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pelham 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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
