“Mallory was so sweet with our cats - she had one of them purring in her arms on her first visit, which never happens that quickly! She was also a trooper when one of our babies was unusually tricky about getting his insulin, and it was clear that she took their care very seriously. She was responsible, communicative, and friendly - and really couldn't have done a better job. Our cats are family members and we have high standards for their care, so that is saying a lot. :) We'd love to have her petsit for us again anytime and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I am 18 and have always had pets growing up. Back at home I have a weimaraner and a toy poodle that i love so so much. I have always taken care of my friends and family’s pets and hope to give other peoples pets the best experience. I am currently i first year bridge student with Shelton State Community College and The University of Alabama. I have class from 8-1 on weekdays and Fridays from 9-11 and the weekends i am completely free. I currently live at Redpoint Tuscaloosa and have two other roommates, there is a dog park right outside my door and many places to walk the animals if required.
About: I have had dogs and cats most of my life. I have also had horses and rabbits. I can handle both big and small dogs. I have a dog named Penny. I work a regular full time job from 8-5. But I am available to check on pets in the evening and weekends. I love animals. I have a medium sized dog named Penny who lives in my apartment with me. I have had many pets over the years including dogs, cats, and horses .
About: I grew up on a farm. My mom raised puppies and kittens. Growing up I lived with at least eight dogs and eight cats at a time (in a small trailer). Now I live in a small house with room outside to walk a dog-- and can even take them to a trail or creek if you wish. I am not scared of aggressive animals. Some pets need more attention than others! I am a house cleaner from 7:30AM to about 11AM-3PM (it depends on the houses). However, I can make time to come home in between work for your pet. I am free all day on weekends. I have a small grass field, a safe neighborhood, and a cozy home. I make sure your pet always has water and food (unless otherwise specified) and attention.
“Allison checked in on my two cats while I was abroad and she was amazing! They warmed up to her so quickly and she took great care of them. I would definitely trust her to watch my pets again.”
About: I’ve had pets in my home my entire life! Multiple dogs and at least one cat at a time. We have fostered many puppies and dogs some were medically fragile through our local humane society. As a child I learned how to be responsible for my pets and all their daily care. I am excited to meet your pets because I miss being around my own pets since I’m 4 hours from home and they are truly like one of our family members! I’m a full time student at the University of Alabama so I’m able to fit in pet care around my classes!! My classes are primarily in the morning!! I would communicate the pets needs with the owner to ensure I can provide the same care and attention they receive when their owner is at the home with them!
“Megan was wonderful with our cat Drake while we were away! She not only took great care feeding him she also played with him each day. She sent us such cute pictures of them playing every day! The only downside is I’m afraid he may be disappointed it’s us that comes home each day now and not her😂 We will definitely be getting her to come take care of him next time we are out of town.”
About: I have grown up with animals! I’ve had dogs, cats, and lizards my whole life. I not only make sure your animals are fed and taken outside, but I will stay to love on them and play with them! I go above and beyond to assure your pet is happy! I can take care of your pets any day at any time! Whether it’s weekdays, weekends, and especially on Holidays! I’ll be on it to ensure your pets are taken care of. In your home I will be sure to follow any and all instructions I am given. I will take your dogs outside, I will feed them. My dogs eat separately, I can even make sure to accommodate for any special diets. I can assure to love on them, if you have a brush, I can brush them. I will take them outside if you are comfortable with it and play with them. Whatever your pet needs I am on it.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two of my own (a golden retriever and a terrier mix), so I understand how important it is to have someone caring and trustworthy looking after your pets. I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for years, and I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available full time for pet care. This allows me to give pets lots of attention, walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day and week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and attention, and always have a safe and clean environment. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep owners updated, and make sure pets feel calm, comfortable, and cared for while they’re away.
“First time using rover, and I didnt have to worry about my pups at all while I was gone. She took great care of my them! She sent updates and photos and let me know of anything concerning, which I appreciate. She even dripped my faucets while I was gone, and I didnt even ask or think about that! I try not to leave my pups home alone, but if I ever have to, I'd happily trust her again! Thanks Haven!”

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.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .
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.
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.
